## Dialogue

**Blue Battle Slave:** Slaves... on enemy side!
**(Lord): Listen, everyone! I am (Lord), Monarch of Avillon! These soldiers were once slaves, but have been freed from their shackles!**
**Blue Battle Slave:** Not... understand? Slaves... are slaves. They... wear same clothes. Use... same weapons. If... not slaves. Then... what?
**(Lord):** Were you born as slaves?
**Blue Battle Slave:** Yes! Slaves... born slaves.
**(Lord):** So what about the ancestors that you dream of returning to? The ones in their grass fields? Were they also born slaves?
**Blue Battle Slave:** Grm... Grm...
**(Lord):** Accepting a new life for yourself is difficult, but there’s no rush. We’ll help you.

**Blue Battle Slave:** No... kill?
**(Lord):** There’s still too much you have to live for.
**Blue Battle Slave:** If... we live. Only... pain. If... we die. We ... meet ancestors. Rest!
**Charlotte:** The only way to rest is to die...?!
**Johan:** I had heard of the slavery in Rhodon, but it is far worse than I had ever imagined...
**(Lord):** We can’t spend life dreaming of what’s beyond it. You might not be able to picture yourselves outside of slavery, but freedom will give your lives so much more meaning, more than you may realize now.
**Red Tangur Warrior:** I... like. Talking... with comrades. Before... battle. (Lord)... said. Better things... in future. I... curious. Want... to know. This feeling.
**(Lord):** I’ll help. I want you to find out how that feels, too. That’s the world I’m fighting for. A world in which you don’t have to kill others, or fear being killed by others.
**Blue Battle Slave:** Grm... Grm...
**Red Tangur Warrior:** Come... with us. Brothers.

**Zaira:** Avillonian dogs! You dare invade Rhodon?
**Fram:** Hey, isn’t that…?
**Charlotte:** That’s the knight we saw in the Nibelon Woodlands!
**Zaira:** You... You’re the ones from... Your ruler is here, too?!
**(Lord):** It’s nice to see you, Zaira, the 'Sable Tempest'.
**Zaira:** ...No matter who you are, you cannot leave here alive. Those battle slaves behind you… Are they your prisoners? Wait, have you all defected?! You’re betraying your nation to side with these invaders?!
**Yellow Tengur Warrior:** Grm... We... want new life!
**Red Tangur Warrior:** (Lord)... promised to show. New... life!
**Zaira:** And you fell for such deceit? Soldiers, prepare to attack!
**(Lord):** Knights, she’s no ordinary opponent. Fight with everything you’ve got.

**Zaira:** Ngh... So were you just going easy on me back in the woodlands?
**Fram:** No, we’ve just gotten stronger since then!
**Charlotte:** That’s right! We get stronger every day!
**Zaira:** Ridiculous…
**(Lord):** Lady Zaira, what the Tangur warriors said earlier was true.
**Zaira:** What...?
**(Lord):** I made a promise to them, and I don’t break my promises.
**Zaira:** Tch. Sure you don’t.
**Fram:** Well, excuse you!
**Zaira:** Can you, a royal, even begin to understand them, what they’ve been through? How could someone born into luxury and status claim to know a slave’s hardships?
**(Lord):** Our beginnings may have been different, but that doesn’t mean we can’t have similar experiences.
**Zaira:** Easy for you to say from the top of your high pedestal! You couldn’t even imagine what those at the bottom feel! You take basic rights for granted… But we could only dream of them as we toiled away! Don’t think you can deceive me, Ruler of Avillon!
**(Lord):** ...
**Red Tangur Warrior:** Knight... I am slave. My kind... die in arena. Many... die every day. I... am most low. Of slaves. I... cannot speak much. And... have nothing. But...! (Lord)... is different. Different... from owners. Different... from knights. I know.
**Zaira:** What...?
**(Lord):** Zaira, the world I picture is one where everyone enjoys the rights you speak of. You yourself must have been through a lot. People in this country get judged harshly by the class they were born into.
**Zaira:** Stop trying to win me over with your deceit! Soldiers, fall back!
**Fram:** Wait! Highness, should we go after them?
**(Lord):** No, let them go. She’s not ready to hear what I have to stay.
**Johan:** Should she return, though, she will no doubt attack again, and with a larger force. Would it be wise to let her go here?
**(Lord):** Let her bring all her forces. Perhaps by tearing down her walls of soldiers, we can tear down the walls of her heart as well. And besides, I’ve full confidence you will all prevail in battle.
**Fram:** You better believe it! We could beat ten, even twenty times as many as those guys!
**Charlotte:** Exactly! All we gotta do is sick Fram on ‘em and run!
