Oh hey, looks like I'm not the first one to show up.
link Linhardt volume_up
Hello there. No need to pay me any mind. I'll just be absorbed in my book here.
link Linhardt volume_up
I assume you've come to meet someone? As they've clearly not arrived yet, why don't you join me? Here.
link Shez volume_up
I, uh...thanks.
link Shez volume_up
Hey Linhardt, you're into all that spooky magic stuff, right? Like sorcery and Crests and whatnot?
link Linhardt volume_up
Yes... Why? Is there something you'd like to ask me?
link Shez volume_up
Oh no, I was just thinking it's kinda weird that you've never really been interested in my power.
link Linhardt volume_up
Do you want me to be?
link Shez volume_up
Yeah, I mean, I don't even understand it myself.
link Shez volume_up
But with you helping me, I might actually learn something.
link Shez volume_up
I mean, not really. But I would've at least expected you to ask about it by now.
link Shez volume_up
That, and Hubert scared me half to death talking about how you might experiment on me. Just so we're clear, I'm not into that.
link Linhardt volume_up
Uh-huh. Well, not everything piques my interest. Your circumstances simply do not.
link Shez volume_up
If you're not interested, then so be it. But is there any particular reason why?
link Linhardt volume_up
Hard to say. Perhaps because a sword is the only thing you're able to manifest?
link Linhardt volume_up
Strictly speaking, I suppose your power does raise some questions.
link Linhardt volume_up
But that sinister weapon of yours... It just doesn't leave me all that interested in learning more.
link Shez volume_up
"Sinister," huh? That's one way to describe it.
link Linhardt volume_up
Tell me, have you ever beheld one of the Heroes' Relics? They also possess the most peculiar aura.
link Linhardt volume_up
And yet, there's something almost divine about the terror they instill. But your sword...
link Linhardt volume_up
It's...cold. Maybe even inhuman.
link Linhardt volume_up
In more complex terms, it's little more than an inorganic, dispassionate construct. Not a hint of the goddess's divine guidance in its design.
link Linhardt volume_up
It's not as if you were able to choose what you manifested, right? It just came to you.
link Shez volume_up
True, but what if I could turn it into something else, and start manifesting different things?
link Shez volume_up
Would you be interested then?
link Linhardt volume_up
Is such a thing possible? I would like to see that for myself, I must admit.
link Linhardt volume_up
In fact, I'd be quite excited by that! What a fascinating topic to lay at my feet!
link Shez volume_up
Hey, it was just a suggestion. I have no idea if I can actually do it.
link Shez volume_up
Hold your horses, there. I'm not really sure I've laid anything anywhere just yet.
link Linhardt volume_up
But...aren't you the one who brought it up?
