Ah, there you are, Ignatz.
link Ignatz volume_up
Hello, Lysithea. Do you need something?
link Lysithea volume_up
I wanted to thank you for your actions in our skirmish earlier.
link Lysithea volume_up
You blocked the enemy's approach, which allowed me to maintain my position on the battlefield.
link Lysithea volume_up
I'm very grateful.
link Ignatz volume_up
Oh, you don't need to thank me. Protecting comrades is all part of the job when you're a knight!
link Lysithea volume_up
At first, I thought knighthood would prove to be a task beyond your ability, but you've turned out to be surprisingly dependable.
link Lysithea volume_up
Didn't you come from a merchant family?
link Ignatz volume_up
I sure did.
link Lysithea volume_up
Then if I may, why have you chosen to become a knight instead of taking over the family business?
link Ignatz volume_up
Because I'm the second son. My older brother is going to take over the business.
link Ignatz volume_up
My father wanted me to become a knight so I could help my brother that way.
link Ignatz volume_up
It was a lot to deal with, but in the end, I'm pretty happy with how it all turned out.
link Lysithea volume_up
It's quite commendable to choose a future based on your family's wishes.
link Ignatz volume_up
Oh, it's not so impressive.
link Lysithea volume_up
Your family must've been ecstatic when you were knighted.
link Ignatz volume_up
I suppose they were...
link Lysithea volume_up
To be honest, I am envious of you.
link Ignatz volume_up
You are?
link Lysithea volume_up
I am. I haven't been able to do anything for my own mother and father yet.
link Lysithea volume_up
I hope to be as strong as you and do something equally wonderful for my parents one day.
link Ignatz volume_up
...
link Ignatz volume_up
You're very considerate of your parents, Lysithea.
link Ignatz volume_up
And I know how hard you work when you set your mind to something, so I'm sure you can do this, too.
link Ignatz volume_up
Yes, well, if there's anything I can do to help, just let me know!
link Lysithea volume_up
Hmm... Um, that is to say, I certainly will. Thank you.
link Ignatz volume_up
Now if you'll excuse me, I really should be going. The work of a knight is never done, after all!
link Lysithea volume_up
Hmm...
