- Ingrid. I have brought sustenance.
- Oh, uh, thank you, Dedue! These look wonderful.
- Your timing is impeccable. I was just about to
[cdb]wrap this up.
- Writing reports?
- Yes, I was summing up the results from our
[cdb]most recent battle in the Duscur region.
- It was...a dreadful fight. It will be quite some time
[cdb]still before the situation in Duscur stabilizes.
- Obviously I'm glad those involved in the Tragedy
[cdb]were captured in the end, but...
- But like any other region, Duscur is home to all
[cdb]kinds of people. Some good. Some bad.
- Exactly. The Kingdom is no different!
- We may have our fair share of villains, but we
[cdb]should not be blaming innocent people for the
[cdb]actions of the bad ones.
- It's human nature to generalize.
- I'd be lying if I claimed to hold no hatred towards
Faerghus for the devastation it brought to my home.
- But I've come to meet many kinds of people as I've
[cdb]lived here with His Majesty.
- ...
- Some hurled stones and insults, not only at me,
[cdb]but at His Majesty as well.
- Yet some remained kind to me, despite my heritage.
- I guess I never really had to think about it like that...
- Honestly, Dedue? If not for you, I would've gone on
[cdb]stubbornly hating and fearing everyone from Duscur.
- No matter how much His Majesty insisted on their
[cdb]innocence.
- But you did meet me, and now you have taken
[cdb]the first step toward change.
- It may not be my place, but I find that willingness to
[cdb]change admirable.
- I am wholly undeserving of such praise. I still have a
[cdb]long way to go.
- But enough of this. After I am finished here, maybe
[cdb]we could grab a bite together in town?
- Sure.
- The other day, His Majesty introduced me to an inn
[cdb]that serves the most excellent food.
- It is actually owned by someone from Duscur! I was
[cdb]amazed how much I enjoyed everything.
- I would love to take you there.
- Ingrid.
- Yes? I'm sorry, are you not interested? Or do you have
[cdb]other plans?
- Nothing like that. You said His Majesty brought
[cdb]you there?
- Well, yes. He seemed quite familiar with the owner.
- Hmm, I see. Call for me when you're ready.
- Right now, I must find His Majesty and remind him
[cdb]not to be so cavalier in his movements, even with you
[cdb]at his side.
- Oh dear. Perhaps I should not have mentioned
[cdb]that part...
