Expedition

Invite on an Expedition

• I trust you're ready? Then let's head out.
• I'm happy to accompany you anywhere. Onward!

Plains

• Notice a rare bird.
  We should see if it dropped any feathers—I bet Hilda would just love them!
• Pick up a scrap of paper.
  It's uncouth to pry in the business of others. We should leave it be.

Forest

• Gather mushrooms.
  A fine idea! Mushrooms are a welcome addition to any meal.
• Pick fruit.
  Soldiers often have to live off the land during lengthy campaigns, so this should prove a fine experience.

Mountains

• Give yourself first aid.
  Ah, I can see you're an old hand at that.
• Ask them for a piggyback ride.
  Of course! If it's too painful for you to walk, we must see you home safely so you can heal.

Waterfront

• Say you don't know how to steer a boat.
  But then how would you hope to attack an enemy encampment on a far shore? No, this won't do at all. We should get you some practice at once.
• Worry about getting seasick.
  Seasickness is no laughing matter. I've seen it devastate entire armies who are unaccustomed to combat at sea.

EXTRA TIME

• Envying my height is pointless—simply find a fighting style that fits your body type.
• Do you like the color of my hair? It's in the blood of House Goneril.
• Sometimes a strong gaze precludes the need to draw one's weapon.
• People often overestimate my age, but I'm actually not much older than you.
• Rippling muscles are often naught more than vanity. Best to focus your training on efficiency in battle.
• Yes, I could probably pick you up with one hand. Do you want me to carry you home?

Return to Camp

• Let's do this again!
• What a grand day out. I hope I can enjoy your company again soon!
• Let us give it our utmost!
