Oh, you're awake. Don't worry, it's only been a
[cdb]few hours.
What...happened? The last I remember, I was
[cdb]training some of our new recruits...
You got hit by some stray magic. Pretty hard, too.
Yes, that's right. How could I have let my guard fall
[cdb]so carelessly?
Probably the exhaustion. You usually sidestep stuff
[cdb]like that no problem.
Everybody was really worried about you, though.
Dedue and Felix in particular didn't know what to
[cdb]do with themselves.
Guess the silver lining is that it forced you to get
[cdb]some rest, if only for a few hours.
Apologies for causing such a disturbance. I'm fine
[cdb]now, I assure you.
Uh-huh, sure you are. I know you're just gonna get
[cdb]straight back to work if I leave you be. But hey, take a
[cdb]look around first.
Hm, the room is immaculate. Is this your handiwork?
Yep! Though we left anything that seemed like it
[cdb]would need your input.
Figured we could at least take care of the small stuff
[cdb]while you were out, though.
Oh, and everyone—and I mean everyone—thinks you
[cdb]should be taking more breaks.
I'm certainly grateful for the gesture, but how did you
[cdb]find time for this amidst your other responsibilities?
It was easy once we split everything up. Felix, Dedue,
[cdb]and I wrapped up the training session in your stead.
Then Rodrigue and Sylvain handled the rest of your
[cdb]paperwork. You might wanna glance through it later,
[cdb]though.
Ingrid tended to the horses, while Ashe and Annette
[cdb]helped organize all your books.
Oh, and Mercedes baked some wonderful treats for
[cdb]you. They'll have you back on your feet in no time.
What else, what else? Oh right, we sent some soldiers
[cdb]out to check on the nearby villages, too.
Incredible. I never expected you to do this much.
Scold him for working too hard.
Boast a bit.
I told you not to do everything yourself, but you still
[cdb]keep piling more and more stuff on anyway.
That's not true. I've relied on you and the others
[cdb]much more frequently of late. Besides which, this is
[cdb]what I want to do.
You've gotten better, sure, but I'm saying it's not
[cdb]enough. Don't you trust us?
Well? The Blue Lions can be pretty dependable when
[cdb]we put our minds to it, huh?
Maybe you can trust us a little more now that you've
[cdb]seen what we can do.
This isn't a matter of trust. I deeply depend on every
[cdb]single person in this army.
Then why didn't you tell anyone else about how you
[cdb]went and buried all those villagers?
Everyone was stunned when I mentioned it to them.
They wanna hear about that stuff from your mouth,
[cdb]not mine.
Yes, I... My apologies.
If you're really sorry, then you won't let it happen
[cdb]again. Anyway, go get some more rest—and don't try
[cdb]to say you're not tired just so you can keep working.
I see I can't fool you. Though in truth, I doubt I'll
[cdb]be able to doze off again so soon after enjoying my
[cdb]first dreamless sleep in ages.
In that case, come kill some time with me. I'm sure
[cdb]the training grounds'll be free by now.
