Ahahaha! At last, we come face to face!
link Petra volume_up
Constance? Is something—
link Constance volume_up
Listen here! There's no need to dance around me, for I bear you no ill will!
link Petra volume_up
Uh... I am having confusion. What are you speaking of?
link Constance volume_up
I speak of the bad blood between Brigid and the Empire, of course!
link Petra volume_up
Ah. The war. I am having my own feelings about—
link Constance volume_up
Surely you are aware that it was your father who invaded the lands of House Nuvelle, which I once called home.
link Constance volume_up
It was his aggressions which cost me my family, my friends, my land...everything!
link Constance volume_up
However, your father and many of your countrymen paid for this in the coin of their own lives.
link Constance volume_up
Furthermore, neither you nor I took part in that foolish conflict.
link Constance volume_up
Therefore, there is no merit to our dredging up the past. We need not be at each other's throats.
link Constance volume_up
Have I made myself clear? Good. Now farewell! Ahahaha!
link Petra volume_up
Um...
link Petra volume_up
Constance...has a personality of much color. I was not given a chance to give her my reply.
link Petra volume_up
I cannot be leaving things like this. I must be telling her that I have understanding.
link Petra volume_up
Constance, I am wanting to talk to you about what you were saying before.
link Constance volume_up
Greetings, Petra. I fear I caused you undue distress. Please accept my humblest apologies for the offense.
link Constance volume_up
One from my meager and reduced circumstances has no right to insult a woman of your royal standing.
link Petra volume_up
Um...
link Constance volume_up
As galling as this must be after the fact, I humbly beg your forgiveness.
link Petra volume_up
You can have my forgiveness, although I was not taking any offense.
link Constance volume_up
Oh! What overflowing kindness! Truly, your mercy is too good for a wretch such as I.
link Constance volume_up
But I should not expect aught else from one capable of ruling an entire people. You are a mighty boulder, and I but a pebble by the wayside.
link Petra volume_up
Let me speak, Constance. Please.
link Petra volume_up
I am knowing that our relationship is...complicated.
link Petra volume_up
I think about this every day. It is filling my heart with pain and confusion.
link Petra volume_up
But...you had the braveness to say what I could not.
link Constance volume_up
Stop, I beg you. You will crush my sad and pathetic frame under the weight of such undeserved compliments.
link Constance volume_up
I think it best if I keep my own counsel from now on. Pray pay my ramblings no mind.
link Constance volume_up
Oh my! Now I have been so presumptuous as to tell you what to do! Please excuse me while I go crawl under a rock...
link Petra volume_up
...
link Petra volume_up
I am not understanding what happened here. Which Constance should I be believing?
