- Ahaha! You've prepared exactly what I desire to eat!
I'm glad that you've been paying attention.
- Very well. If it pleases you to serve me so,
[cdb]then I will deign to join you for this meal.
- Goodness, I was so engrossed in my research that I
[cdb]forgot to eat. Well, I'm sure any sustenance will do.
- I sincerely doubt you would enjoy yourself in my
[cdb]pathetic company.
- I'm truly sorry for any obligation you must have felt
[cdb]to invite me along today.
- I would quickly become lost in a place such as this.
- But alas, a ferocious bear awaited them in the forest,
[cdb]and they were all devoured alive. The end.
Well? Did you enjoy my story?
- In other circumstances, I would gladly climb to the
[cdb]summit. But for now, I think it best if I wait here at
[cdb]the base.
- When you look into the surface of the water, do you
[cdb]also see a dismal reflection of reality?
- Oh my. You sang so magnificently that the pegasi
[cdb]pranced with joy.
- Then by all means, please eat something. You need
[cdb]not waste any concern on me.
- Well, you certainly appear to be enjoying yourself.
Is there a variety of mushrooms that can energize
[cdb]one so?
- We should gather as much as we can carry so
[cdb]everyone can enjoy it.
- Goodness, you're so reliable. Alas, it somehow seems I
[cdb]have become more of a burden than I already was.
- My own negligence caused this. Subjecting you to this
[cdb]additional burden is appalling.
- The moment I set foot into the boat, perhaps a hole
[cdb]will open in its bottom, and I'll be pulled by some
[cdb]strange eddy into a watery grave.
- As my stomach is in a constant state of distress,
[cdb]seasickness has little effect on me.
- You have also experienced the trauma of losing
[cdb]everything, have you not? We're kindred spirits
[cdb]in that sense.
- I feel I would be more fit to serve as a squire who
[cdb]tended to cleaning and laundry. What do you think?
- Are you familiar with curses? Unlike magic, there is
[cdb]much I do not understand about the art.
- When I watch tea diffuse through water in my cup,
I feel a fleeting moment of happiness.
- I suspect I'd be more useful to the army if I just left
[cdb]it altogether.
- I wonder if I will ever genuinely laugh from the
[cdb]bottom of my heart. Heh...
- I have drifted through the Kingdom, the Empire,
[cdb]and even Garreg Mach during my time in this most
[cdb]transient of worlds.
- Lamenting the past is something I've grown quite
[cdb]fond of lately. It is a poor habit, I know.
- I dislike all of the lovely people and things in this
[cdb]world, as they remain forever beyond my reach.
- As one who has lost everything, I no longer permit
[cdb]myself to hold dreams or aspirations.
- There is no merit in expressing my worries, nor in
[cdb]you suffering them. However, I would gladly listen
[cdb]to your concerns, if you like.
- It was a beautiful port town with a thriving fishing
[cdb]industry and merchant ships hailing from Brigid and
[cdb]beyond.
- I spent some time under Garreg Mach in Abyss.
I found it to be strangely...comforting.
- Oh, but they are a delightful bunch. Their blinding
[cdb]radiance almost brings a smile to my face.
- I have been studying magic for most of my life.
Perhaps I might even be useful in battle one day...
- Oh, I'm certain you regard me similarly to how I
[cdb]regard you.
- You could not possibly find delight in learning the
[cdb]meaningless jumble of my thoughts.
- You think there's a chance I might be doing well?
How silly of you.
- I feel unusually fine today—although that may well be
[cdb]the sunstroke talking.
- Hair is the life of nobility—or so I have been told—
[cdb]and therefore, I tend to mine diligently.
- Noticed my earrings, have you? They were my
[cdb]mother's once.
- Does staring at my gloomy visage not fill you with a
[cdb]fathomless chasm of despair?
- The bold look of hope in your eyes is simply
[cdb]magnificent. But mine, on the other hand...
- If you need a feeble body for chores or hauling
[cdb]firewood or the like, please make use of mine.
- This body of mine is strange indeed. I wonder what
[cdb]will become of me.
- I can only offer my sincere gratitude for the kindness
[cdb]you have shown me.
- Would it be permissible for me to look forward to
[cdb]your kindness again in the future?
- I hope to prove at least as useful to you as a pile of
[cdb]discarded rubbish.
- Bear witness to my true power!
