So in the end, it seems we're no closer to unveiling the truth about your powers.
link Linhardt volume_up
I suppose we can conclude that they're incredibly dangerous, considering all that has happened.
link Linhardt volume_up
Yet it still somehow feels like we're right back where we started, without even the slightest clue.
link Shez volume_up
You can say that again.
link Shez volume_up
At this rate, the war'll be over and done with by the time we make any headway.
link Linhardt volume_up
That would admittedly be cause for celebration, at least.
link Linhardt volume_up
Your power, like that of a Crest, is undoubtedly meant to be wielded as an instrument of war.
link Linhardt volume_up
And, as the tides of battle recede, your chances of encountering a life-or-death situation grow slimmer and slimmer.
link Linhardt volume_up
Therefore, you'll be forced to use your power less and less often. And that's probably for the best.
link Shez volume_up
Why is that such a good thing?
link Linhardt volume_up
Because we still don't know enough about its effects, both during and after its use.
link Linhardt volume_up
You know, they say even a Hero's Relic wielded by its corresponding Crest bearer will still drain a portion of that person's life.
link Shez volume_up
True. The less reason to unleash this on the world, the better.
link Linhardt volume_up
You know, they say even a Hero's Relic wielded by its corresponding Crest bearer will still drain a portion of that person's life.
link Linhardt volume_up
It's reasonable to suspect your power could have a similar impact on both your body and mind.
link Shez volume_up
Hey, you're starting to scare me here.
link Shez volume_up
Honestly, I was just planning on going back to being a regular old mercenary after the war ends.
link Shez volume_up
Can't really imagine life without a blade in my hand, you know?
link Linhardt volume_up
I should've guessed. I imagine your expert services will be in high demand even once the conflict is over.
link Linhardt volume_up
In fact, Edelgard herself seemed keen on asking you to settle down in Enbarr to support the Empire.
link Linhardt volume_up
In fact, the king himself seemed keen on asking you to settle down somewhere to support his rule.
link Shez volume_up
Really?
link Shez volume_up
Not that I'm not flattered, of course, but putting down roots isn't really my thing.
link Linhardt volume_up
No, I suppose not.
link Linhardt volume_up
Though I have to admit, it would put my mind at ease to have you by my side once this is all over.
link Shez volume_up
You want me by your side? Would you...care to elaborate on that?
link Linhardt volume_up
Consider the possibilities. A seemingly unarmed attendant who's able to produce a sword in the blink of an eye.
link Linhardt volume_up
It would be a great crime deterrent, don't you think? You'd prove quite handy on my travels.
link Shez volume_up
I figured that's what you meant. A pure Linhardt answer, if I've ever heard one.
link Shez volume_up
But how's that any different from a regular bodyguard? Seems like you could just hire one of those and be done with it.
link Linhardt volume_up
Maybe so, but I don't want to be spending the rest of my life with a random bodyguard, do I?
link Shez volume_up
You should really pick your words more carefully, Linhardt. You almost gave a guy the wrong idea there.
link Linhardt volume_up
Perhaps that idea is exactly what I intended.
link Shez volume_up
Hold on, what?
link Linhardt volume_up
Oh, well, look at the time. It seems I've forgotten an urgent matter I need to attend to. Bye for now.
link Shez volume_up
Wait, Linhardt! Come back!
