1. Ah, Petra! Just the lady I have been looking for.
  2. Are you needing something, Ferdinand?
  3. Why, yes! I do need something! Ahem...
  4. ♪Ravishing lady! Princess from a foreign land! How sharp and true the swords you hold in your [cdb]hand!♪
  5. ♪Wilt thou not spar with me?♪
  6. Ah...huh?
  7. ...
  8. How was that? Did I do it correctly? I want to be [cdb]certain I understood the Brigid way.
  9. The...what?
  10. You see, I was perusing a book on your customs the [cdb]other day.
  11. It was there that I came across a description of the [cdb]proper way in which to make a request of members [cdb]of the Brigid royal family.
  12. Apparently, one is supposed to improvise their need [cdb]in the form of a song while performing a small jig or [cdb]rondo. I find it to be a most lovely tradition!
  13. I am not knowing of this...tradition.
  14. You...do not know it? But I am correct that song and [cdb]dance are very important in your homeland, yes?
  15. Yes, that is a truth. We are often singing and [cdb]dancing as tribute to the spirits.
  16. Then it has nothing to do with the royal family?
  17. Ah, now I have understanding. Something has gotten [cdb]lost inside of the translation.
  18. The ruler of Brigid is often asking the spirits for [cdb]protection. This involves singing and dancing both.
  19. The members of the royal family are not witnessing [cdb]the performance. They are doing the performance.
  20. Also, it is for special occasions only. No one bursts [cdb]into a song with suddenness. That is strange.
  21. Yes, I am discovering that for myself...
  22. I was convinced that Brigid must have some manner [cdb]of odd custom that defies Fódlan convention.
  23. Ferdinand. What land of silliness are you thinking I [cdb]am from?
  24. What? No, I... This is all going quite horribly.
  25. This is what I deserve for trusting that [cdb]ridiculous book.
  26. Do not be worrying. Even books of greatness may [cdb]contain mistakes.
  27. I once was reading that all Fódlan nobles are born in [cdb]wells! Can you be imagining?
  28. That is a ridiculous notion!
  29. And it was even within the title! "Fódlan's Nobility: A Day in the Life of the Wellborn."
  30. Petra, "wellborn" is actually a word. It means one [cdb]who is born into a noble bloodline.
  31. I am knowing that, Ferdinand! I was having a joke.
  32. I am not breaking into songs and dances, but I am [cdb]breaking out the dictionary when I have the need.
  33. A joke? I must say, this is quite surprising, Petra! You are unearthing my ignorance in spades today.
  34. This is twice you have made me dine on dirt in a [cdb]single conversation.
  35. Unearth. Spades. Dirt. Ah, I am understanding! You are having cleverness.
  36. Well, no, that was merely a coincidence. But...I am [cdb]glad you enjoyed it.
