Who knew the Ashen Demon had that kinda strength?

Not that I'm making excuses. You gave me power of my own and it still wasn't close to enough.

That's not true.

Of course it is! What am I even up against here?

It's like I looked away for one second and suddenly I was facing someone else entirely.

Hmm, that would explain what was troubling me before. That is the unique danger I sensed.

Still, you can win this fight. I know you can!
link Arval volume_up
And I'll do whatever I can to make it so. We'll claim victory over that monster together!

Y'know what? You're right. I'll be strong enough one day if I just keep at it.

Still, "one day" could be years from now at this rate. We should probably think of a backup plan.

Thanks, but let's face it—I'm outclassed.

Maybe it's time we gave up this obsession and start looking for a different way forward.

And hey, the Ashen Demon's a mercenary, right? Might be best for the Empire to toss some coin their way and put the rivalry behind us.

You want to hire that thing?!
link Arval volume_up
Seriously? Fighting side by side with the Ashen Demon? Are you mad?

You make it sound like the worst idea in the world.

We have a war to win here, remember. Gotta keep an open mind.

Ah, I understand now. You've witnessed your adversary's true strength, and convinced yourself you cannot win.

What? No! I just know a valuable resource when I see one—and we're far better off with them than we are against them.

If that's really how you feel, then so be it.

But trust me, you don't need to worry. You'll get stronger soon, I promise.
link Arval volume_up
So maybe don't go relinquishing your prey just yet.

After all, I desire nothing more than to see you achieve your goals.
