- You're a lifesaver, Mercedes! Could you help me
[cdb]tend to this soldier's wounds next?
- Lady Mercedes! Where would you like me to
[cdb]put this?
- Oh, um! Yes, just a moment please!
- You really have your hands full, Mercedes.
Anything I can pitch in on?
- Oh, goodness. I appreciate your offer, but I couldn't
[cdb]possibly ask you to take time out of your day to assist
[cdb]me in these tasks.
- Hey, don't be like that. Anyone who's still got the legs
[cdb]to stand on after a battle needs to do whatever they
[cdb]can to help.
- I'm no physician, but I can at least help get some of
[cdb]this stuff organized.
- But you only just returned from combat yourself.
Aren't you exhausted?
- Shrug it off.
- Ask the same of her.
- Nah, not really. We weren't on the front lines or
[cdb]anything, so I'm still good to go.
- And I'm not buried in paperwork afterwards,
[cdb]unlike the others.
- Well, if you insist. I guess a little help wouldn't hurt.
- Hey, I could turn that question right back on you.
You were there fighting with us that whole time.
- I suppose that's true, but are you sure you don't
[cdb]mind lending a hand?
- Sure as anything. Just tell me what to do and I'll be
[cdb]on it before you can even blink.
- In that case, there's a box over at the training
[cdb]grounds. Would you mind getting it?
- There should be bandages and medicine inside,
[cdb]so you'll be able to tell which one it is just by opening
[cdb]the lid.
- Got it. Be right back!
- Hm? Oh my! Wait just a minute.
- What's up?
- Give me your right hand.
- OK...
- I knew it—you're injured. Here, I can patch this up
[cdb]in a jiffy with my healing magic.
- Whoa, it's all better. Thanks, Mercedes.
- You need to speak up from now on if you're hurt,
[cdb]all right? Don't be so nonchalant about your health.
- Hey, I could say the same thing about... Actually,
[cdb]never mind.
- Anyway, it should be easier to carry that box now.
Thanks again, Mercedes.
- No, thank you for offering to help. Oh, and take all
[cdb]the time you need—there's no rush.
