Briarland - Campground
| *slashes and crashing against weapons* |
 |
Hahaha! Bunch of dullards. What's the matter, all that iron armor too heavy to move in? |
| *clinking of swords, yelling voices* |
|
*fae language* |
| *slash, heavy wave* |
Ironclad D |
That small build and massive magearm... Is that Vanrouge, the Dragon's Hand?! |
| *clink, clink, slash, thump* |
 Ironclad E |
Captain, we're about to be routed! |
Ironclad |
Rgh... We can't hope to fight him without the Dawn Knight! 35th Silver Owls Corps, retreat! RETREEEAT! |
| *scraping against the ground* |
 |
GAHAHAHAHAHA! Cowards! Go back to your stronghold in the east and tell your ruler... As long as the Briarland Royal Guard stands ready, you shall never win! |
| *fae language* |
| *footsteps* |
 |
Phew... We managed to drive the Silver Owls out of the forest. MC? Grim? Are you both okay? |
 |
Man. Lilia ran 'em all off before I could bust out any cool magic. |
 |
Hmph! I should think so. With Lilia and Gran—ah, Baur here, plebians like you are destined to remain in the shadows. |
|
Oh yeah?! You weren't any better! You were just lookin' on that whole time, sittin' on your thumbs! |
|
Wh... I was simply biding my time and avoiding getting in the royal guardsmen's way. I WAS BY NO MEANS SITTING ON MY THUMBS! |
Royal Guardsman A |
*fae language* |
|
Ah! Their wagons contain vast amounts of magestone and mystium. This is only the start, foul thieves. We'll drive all of you out, mark my words! |
|
Ah, look! The Silver Owls brought stores of food with them. Oats, meat... Haha, they even have well-fed jade rats and steel lizards! |
Jade Rats |
*chitter!* |
|
Perfect. We can roast those for a nice meal. |
| ?! |
|
MRAH! I don't wanna eat rats or lizards! |
|
If it's cooked and it fills your stomach, what's it matter what kind of meat it is? |
|
Sir Vanrouge, we can handle the cooking! |
|
Yes, ah, learning to cook is part of our Night Raven College curriculum! |
| Please, allow us to do the honors! |
|
Uh... All right, if you insist. You're in charge of our meal today. Just remember, fae have far more sensitive palates than humans do. If you try to slip in anything funny, I'll know. |
|
Wait, you have a sensitive palate?! |
|
Huh? |
|
Oh, ah... Forget I said anything! I'll do my best to make something that all of you find enjoyable. |
|
As for the rest of you louts—tend to your magearms! There may still be remnants of the Silver Owls lurking in the area. Stay on your guard! |
