## Samuel

### C Support

> **Lilinette**Eeeeek!!**Samuel**What is it Lilinette!? Are you okay? Did someone hurt you??**Lilinette**Oh no... I broke a nail!**Samuel**... Lilinette...**Lilinette**Why are you looking at me like that?**Samuel**A broken nail is not something to scream about on the battlefield.**Lilinette**Do you have any idea how long it took me to get these nails done?**Samuel**I have an idea, yes. I am usually the one waiting for you to get ready.**Lilinette**Then you should know how much work it was. And now I have to do it all over again!**Samuel**Lilinette, this is not the proper priority to make in the middle of a battle.**Lilinette**You always talk about how I should find a good husband to marry.**Samuel**I fail to see how that is relevant.**Lilinette**What if I meet my future husband on this battlefield?**Samuel**If he is bothered by a broken nail, he is not husband material.**Lilinette**Aww, that is so sweet. Would you chase him away from me, grandfather?**Samuel**With my lance. If I had to.

> **Lilinette**Grandfather, please tell me how you and grandmother met.**Samuel**Hmm? What brough this On all of a sudden?**Lilinette**I want to know how you captured her heart, so I know what to expect when a man proposes to me.**Samuel**Hah, to tell you the truth. Your grandmother was promised to another when I met her.**Lilinette**Really? You never told me that.**Samuel**It was not very honorable of me, but I had to steal her away.**Lilinette**Aww, that is so romantic! So what did you do about her future husband?**Samuel**I challenged him to a joust, and knocked him into the dirt with my lance. Then I gave your grandmother a rose, and told her to get on my horse. She never looked back.**Lilinette**Grandfather! I cannot believe you did something like that!**Samuel**I was young and reckless, but sometimes we men have to be to get what we want.**Lilinette**I wish two knights would joust over me.

> **Lilinette**Grandfather...**Samuel**What is it my dear? You look so sullen. Have you been crying?**Lilinette**Maybe a little bit.**Samuel**Did someone in this army say something hurtful to you?
> If it was one of the boys in camp I will make him regret it.**Lilinette**No! It's nothing like that.**Samuel**Then what? Tell me what bothers you my grandchild.**Lilinette**Do you often think about death?**Samuel**Ah, so this is what this is about. You are worried about my age?**Lilinette**It is just that I realized you will not be there to look after me forever.**Samuel**Yes Lilinette, that is true, at some point, I will be gone. I do not fear death, but I will regret leaving you alone.**Lilinette**.......**Samuel**This is why I hope you will find a husband before I pass away to the Great Beyond. I want you to have someone looking after you the way I have since you were a child.**Lilinette**I have always had a dream, that on the day of my wedding... You would walk me down the isle, and be the one to give me away.**Samuel**My dear Lilinette, nothing would make me happier.**Lilinette**Then I forbid you to die until then! You will be there on the day of my wedding. Promise me!**Samuel**I cannot promise you that, but I will try my best to achieve it.

## Thea

### C Support

> **Lilinette**Hello there. I do not believe we have been properly introduced.**Thea**I am Thea, Colter's sister.**Lilinette**Oh, I see it now. The resemblance is quite striking. As for me, I am.....**Thea**I know who you are, Lilinette.**Lilinette**Is that so? I suppose my reputation as a noble lady precedes me.**Thea**Well, you're certainly not hard to miss, but that's not why. The men in camp talk about you all the time.**Lilinette**They do??**Thea**Yep.**Lilinette**Whatever could they be saying about me?**Thea**You do not want to know.**Lilinette**Of course I do! As a noble lady my reputation is quite important.**Thea**Don't worry, your reputation is not the focal point of their conversations.**Lilinette**Excuse me?**Thea**Are you really this clueless? They are talking about your looks.**Lilinette**About my looks? As in, what I wear, how I put my hair up. My makeup, and such?**Thea**That is one way to put it, yes.**Lilinette**So there are many men in this camp concerned with fashion? That is great news! What did they think about my shoes?**Thea**You really are clueless, aren't you?**Lilinette**Excuse me? Why would you say that?**Thea**Oh Lilinette, this journey will be quite the learning experience for you.[Thea leaves.]**Lilinette**Hey wait! Did they like my shoes??

### B Support

> **Lilinette**Thea, there you are!**Thea**You have been staring at me a lot today, Lilinette.**Lilinette**Oh, you noticed?**Thea**I grew up in the slums. I learned how to pay attention to who was watching me, even from a distance.**Lilinette**That is actually what I wanted to talk to you about.**Thea**What, my upbringing?**Lilinette**No, not that. The fact that you are a lowborn with no last name. And yet you are really pretty, in a sort of unrefined way.**Thea**Oh geez. I'm pretty for a commoner? That must be the most underhanded compliment anyone has ever given me.**Lilinette**I did not mean it like that! With the proper style you would look breathtaking!**Thea**You are not making me your little pet project, Lilinette.**Lilinette**But Imagine the fun we could have. I have always wanted a friend to do these things with. We could have our nails done together!**Thea**I am happy with the way I look. Now stop talking to me, I need to focus on this battle.[Thea leaves.]**Lilinette**But Theeea! Oh Thea, come back! I am not done talking!

### A Support

> **Thea**Lilinette. You have been avoiding me all day. Something bothering you?**Lilinette**Thea... Do you think I am stupid?**Thea**Stupid? No, not stupid.**Lilinette**But you think I am an annoying, pampered noblegirl, don't you?**Thea**Well, kind of...**Lilinette**I am sorry for bothering you. I will go away now...**Thea**Lilinette, don't be like that. Yes, I do think you are a little... naive, but you also have a good heart.**Lilinette**Really?**Thea**And truth be told, I was also a little jealous.**Lilinette**Jealous? At me?**Thea**The men in camp always talk about your appearance. It made me a little annoyed. I put some effort into my appearance too you know? And I train hard with my sword to stand out and get noticed.**Lilinette**.....They talk about my appearance?**Thea**Well, among other things. I don't think you want to hear everything they said.**Lilinette**Thank you Thea. This made me feel a lot better. You are a true friend.**Thea**I am NOT getting my nails done with you.**Lilinette**But maybe we could spend some more time together, just... talking?.**Thea**That does not sound so bad.**Lilinette**Tee-hee! I am so excited! Let's talk about boys!

## Colter

### C Support

> **Lilinette**Hi there. You must be Colter.**Colter**What do you want?**Lilinette**I uhm, just wanted to talk. I am Lilinette of House Rose. It is a pleasure to meet you.**Colter**...**Lilinette**What is wrong? I am just trying to get to know you.**Colter**Take some advice Lilinette. Girls like you should stay away from guys like me.**Lilinette**And why is that?**Colter**Because I used to rob girls like you on the streets. You should be more careful with who you approach so casually.**Lilinette**Nonsense. You may look a little scary, but I can tell you have a good heart.**Colter**That so? Got me figured out, have you?[Colter moves closer to Lilinette.]**Lilinette**Uhm, what... Are you doing?**Colter**That is some fine jewelry. Meeting you alone here is like hitting the jackpot for a thief.**Lilinette**W-wait, why are you... Eeek! Someone, please help me!

### B Support

> **Lilinette**H-hello there, Colter.**Colter**You again? Did you not learn your lesson last time?**Lilinette**That is why I wanted to talk to you. I think I may require another lesson!**Colter**... What?**Lilinette**Well, I was thinking. What if I actually got robbed for real? By someone who actually wanted to hurt me?**Colter**Then you'd be screwed. Most likely.**Lilinette**So ehm... I was thinking... That maybe... M-maybe you could try robbing me again?**Colter**... Are you serious?**Lilinette**I don't know why, but no one has ever made me feel that way before!**Colter**Here I go out of my way to try and teach a stupid girl a lesson. And then she wants me to do it to her more? Can't make this up.**Lilinette**..... I think I'm in love with you!**Colter**..... Come again?**Lilinette**I am in love with you Colter! I want us to be together!!**Colter**No you're not. You have no idea what you are even saying right now.**Lilinette**I... oh... goodness me. What AM I saying? Oh heavens... I need to get some air... I think**Colter**..... What have I gotten myself into...

### A Support

> **Lilinette**Colter, please don't go. I need to talk to you.**Colter**I suppose we should get this over with.**Lilinette**You probably think that I'm just a silly little girl, with silly little feelings.**Colter**Yeah, that sounds about right.**Lilinette**But I have been thinking about you a lot. And I have come to the realization that... I DO love you, and I know it is true love!**Colter**..... Lilinette...**Lilinette**I want us to get married. I want you to be my husband!**Colter**That would never work out. Not in a million years.**Lilinette**You do not love me back?**Colter**That's not the problem. Do you not understand?**Lilinette**Oh, you mean because you are a commoner? And I am a noble? I have thought about that too! I have a perfect solution!**Colter**A solution?**Lilinette**If we cut your hair, and dress you up in very nice clothes. If you let me change your style, I could make you handsome. You would be my sweet little lord, and my family would see how much we loved each other, and they would be happy! And they would allow us to marry!**Colter**You really are naive, aren't you?**Lilinette**I know my family, I know they only want what is best for me. I know that I could make them understand if I really tried.**Colter**Lilinette, let me tell you what would happen if you took me home to your noble family.**Lilinette**Yes?**Colter**The first thing they would do is ask me who I am. If I tried to lie and say I was a noble, they would find out.**Lilinette**.....**Colter**I'd tell them I'm a commoner. They would not approve of course, and you would get mad at them. You would tell them everything you told me, and they would be stuck in a very awkward position.**Lilinette**.....**Colter**You would cry of course, and you would be sad... for some time at least. However, eventually you would get over it, and marry someone else. But me? That would be the end for me. I would probably never leave whatever cell they threw me into alive.**Lilinette**My family would never do something like that!**Colter**Lilinette, you have spent your entire life among nobles, but you have never seen what happens when someone threatens the future of their house. I have. House Rose would do anything to ensure you did not marry a cutthroat. Trust me.**Lilinette**Colter...**Colter**Our story would never have a happy ending. It does not matter if I like you, marrying you would be the death of me.**Lilinette**So... you do like me?**Colter**Goodbye, Lilinette.[Colter leaves.]**Lilinette**.....

## Theodor

### C Support

> **Lilinette**Uncle Theo!**Theodor**Uh, hello there Lilinette.**Lilinette**What is the matter?**Theodor**It is just that I am not used to being called uncle.**Lilinette**Am I embarrassing you?**Theodor**A little bit. I am only ten years your senior, you know.**Lilinette**My father always said there was a big age gap between you and him.**Theodor**That is true. My older brother
> always felt so distant from me. He was a grownup and I was just a stupid kid trying to follow him.**Lilinette**Father used to say you were extremely talented.**Theodor**Really? He said that? It never felt that way.**Lilinette**You became a mage knight at the age of twelve. I could not even apply my own makeup at that age.**Theodor**Hah, I still remember how you kept chasing me around the palace gardens all day. You wanted to become a mage knight too. You were such a cute child back then.**Lilinette**Uncle Theo! Now you are the one embarrassing me!

### A Support

> **Theodor**Lilinette, what do you think is the future of our house?**Lilinette**The future of our house? That is a serious question.**Theodor**It is an important topic. One we should discuss more at length.**Lilinette**I must admit, I never really thought much about it.**Theodor**Have you ever considered that one day, you might have to lead?**Lilinette**I could never imagine myself in such a position, Theo. Not while you are around.**Theodor**I could never take that position for obvious reasons.**Lilinette**Well, I don't really feel comfortable with it either.**Theodor**Then from this day forth, we will begin our training together. I will make sure to teach you everything I know.**Lilinette**U-uncle Theo, that sounds very scary.**Theodor**It will be, for a little bit, but I am confident you can handle it. You have a lot of potential, you need to begin harnessing it.**Lilinette**Do you really think so?**Theodor**I know it. You are as much a member of House Rose as I am.**Lilinette**A-alright Uncle Theo, I guess I can give it a try!**Theodor**hat's the spirit. We will begin the training next time we make camp.

## Garam

### C Support

> **Lilinette**Varok, thal, garok.**Garam**Huh?**Lilinette**Hmm? Did I not say it right?**Garam**You did indeed, it was a proper greeting. I am just... at a loss for words. Not many humans know our language.**Lilinette**Well, I am not like most humans.**Garam**So you say... Did you want something?**Lilinette**I was just curious, do all centaurs wear makeup?**Garam**Makeup?**Lilinette**Yes. I am not used to males wearing it. Is this common in centaur culture?**Garam**Are you talking about my war paint?**Lilinette**Is that your word for it? Hmm, sounds brutish.**Garam**My war paint shows my warrior status. It tells others I am ready to do battle.**Lilinette**Oh, I should have known it would be something violent like that.**Garam**What about you? Why do you wear it? You are clearly too skinny to be a warrior.**Lilinette**I guess you could say my "war paint" serves a different purpose.**Garam**And what would that be?**Lilinette**I wear it to look pretty, so I can attract a good man for marriage.**Garam**Bwahahaha!**Lilinette**W-why are you laughing at me?**Garam**So, among humans, the women wear war paint to attract males? No wonder you are so strange, you got it all backwards.**Lilinette**When you put it like that. It does sound strange.**Garam**Well, let me give you some advice. If you want to attract a good male, you need to eat more food.**Lilinette**Excuse me!?**Garam**ou are just skin and bones. You need to build muscle. A real female needs to be strong and sturdy!**Lilinette**How brutish. What man would ever be attracted to me if I had muscles? My small waistline is one of my most attractive attributes.**Garam**Waistlines are supposed to be small? You humans are incomprehensible to me.

### B Support

> **Lilinette**Garam, I notice your hair is very long.**Garam**A centaur's hair is his pride. The longer our hair grows, the more respect we command.**Lilinette**I imagine you would look very handsome with a haircut. Ooh, I have never styled a centaur's hair before.**Garam**I would never let a human come near my hair. I would rather let my arm be chopped off.**Lilinette**Eww! Why does everything you say have to be so brutish?**Garam**I hear you use this word a lot. That is a strange word, I do not understand what it means.**Lilinette**It means, uhm... that everything about you has to be so violent and warlike.**Garam**Hmm, so brutish is a good word? Maybe I should adopt the title "Garam the Brutish."**Lilinette**It would certainly suit you.

### A Support

> **Garam**Lilinette, I must speak with you.**Lilinette**What is it, Garam?**Garam**You wish to learn more about the centaurs, yes?**Lilinette**I would love to!**Garam**Once this war is over, I can take you back to my tribe.**Lilinette**You really mean that?**Garam**However, if you wish to meet them you must first put on some weight.**Lilinette**Put on... some weight?**Garam**Centaurs do not respect skinny women. For your safety, you must be larger.**Lilinette**How would I do that?**Garam**From now on, dine with me. I will teach you to eat.**Lilinette**Hmm, sounds horrible, but I suppose I must do it if I wish to meet your tribe.**Garam**When I am done we shall make a proper woman out of you!

## Dawn

### C Support

> **Lilinette**Lady Dawn! Hello!**Dawn**Hm? Who are you, child?**Lilinette**I am Lilinette of House Rose! You're my biggest inspiration.**Dawn**House Rose, yes. I have been long acquainted with your family.**Lilinette**Oh, I'm flattered! Our lineage dates back for hundreds of years! Though, I'm sure you don't need me to tell you that!**Dawn**Yes, House Rose, your ilk are so obsessed with frivolity and outer appearance. There is very little substance to be found underneath the surface.**Lilinette**...Pardon?**Dawn**Look at you, you're perhaps, half as beautiful as an average lightbringer maiden. Yet, you cover yourself in makeup and jewels, looking like a gaudy fool.**Lilinette**Excuse me!?**Dawn**Ah yes, and now you are offended at my compliment! I said you were HALF as beautiful as my own descendants! Tell me, are you daft?**Lilinette**I...I think I need to sit down...**Dawn**What? Now you're dizzy from mere words? Rosella, how did your blood grow so thin? Come, I shall find a chair for you!**Lilinette**...

### B Support

> **Lilinette**Oh, h-hello again, Lady Dawn.**Dawn**Ah, Lilinette, I've been searching for you.**Lilinette**Searching? For me? Why would you be-**Dawn**I have been told that you're an accomplished playwright.**Lilinette**Ah, yes ma'am! I've written several plays in the past...**Dawn**I have also been told, one of these plays is about me.**Lilinette**Oh, why yes!! I consider it some of my finest work!**Dawn**Well, what are you waiting for, child? Bring it here at once!**Lilinette**You...want to read it?**Dawn**Of course I do! I must judge your work on it's accuracy. It must be a proper, true retelling of my life!**Lilinette**Oh goodness... having you analyze my work is... The chance of a lifetime!!**Dawn**Be aware, Lilinette, I take these matters seriously. If you've written a farcical, disrespectful-**Lilinette**Oh, please don't worry, Lady Dawn! I'm much smarter than you think! I'll find a copy of the manuscript for you right away!**Dawn**She is confident, that is good. Let's see if her writing matches up to her bravado.

> **Lilinette**Lady Dawn, you called for me?**Dawn**Yes, child, we must speak about your play.**Lilinette**Oh, you finished it already? I am shocked, it's-**Dawn**I must say, Lilinette, the script... it is remarkably well researched.**Lilinette**Yes!! Just as I thought, What a relief!!**Dawn**The detail you put into the sets, the dialogue... It's very impressive, Lilinette.**Lilinette**Oh, oh my goodness!! I- Coming from you, that...**Dawn**Are you alright, child? Why are you crying?**Lilinette**It's just... to hear it from you, it's like a dream come true!**Dawn**Well, compliments aren't easily earned from myself. Take pride in knowing that you truly deserve it.**Lilinette**Thank you, thank you so much. That'll show them!**Dawn**Show who?**Lilinette**Oh, well... I don't mean to prattle on about myself, Lady Dawn.**Dawn**Nonsense, you will tell me what you meant.**Lilinette**People take one look at me, and immediately think I'm stupid. They speak kindly to my face, and mock me out of earshot.**Dawn**I see.**Lilinette**All those years spent in Castle Rose... I spent every moment I could in study. I learned healing, I wrote plays, I can speak several languages, yet... They judge me the second they lay eyes on me. The only person who ever truly
> believed in me was... Grampy....**Dawn**Samuel.**Lilinette**Every night, when he tucked me in, he'd say "Never give up, little Lili". I... I know I should hate him, but...**Dawn**Your grandfather...he loved you very much.**Lilinette**I... I miss him so much. And now he's.... What do I do now?**Dawn**Lilinette-**Lilinette**Oh! I, I'm so sorry Lady Dawn! I didn't mean to ramble-**Dawn**Do not speak over me, child. The Light magic you wrote about in your play, Would you like to learn it yourself?**Lilinette**....You would teach me?!**Dawn**Do I seem like one to make idle offers?**Lilinette**No, ma'am! I mean, yes ma'am! I mean- I would love to learn from you, Dawn!**Dawn**Good, I expected nothing less. We begin tomorrow, Lilinette!**Lilinette**Thank you... Thank you so much.

## Christina

### C Support

> **Lilinette**Christina, darling, I've found the most wonderful dress for you to wear. It would look splendid on you.**Christina**A dress? Yuck.**Lilinette**Silk and lace, the color of the evening sky. Simply divine! You do lack the curves to fill it out, but that's not a problem. I've modified it so that it fits your slender physique.**Christina**I am NOT wearing that thing.**Lilinette**Oh, but it would look so lovely on you!**Christina**If you want me to wear something, buy me some new armor instead.**Lilinette**Oh my, it is simply unbefitting of a lady to act in this manner, Christina. You must learn how to wear a dress!**Christina**Brigands don't care about what I'm wearing when I'm stabbing them with my lance.**Lilinette**And what about finding yourself a husband?**Christina**Boys are stupid and smelly. I don't care about them.**Lilinette**Hmpf. Maybe I overestimated you. You are still so very immature. I thought maybe at this age you'd take some interest in these things. Oh, how disappointing...**Christina**Hey, who are you calling immature?**Lilinette**At your age I was sewing my own dresses, but I suppose some people are just slow. Maybe in a few years you'll finally grow up.[Lilinette leaves.]**Christina**Hey! You take that back, now!

### B Support

> **Christina**Lilinette, do you...do you think I look like a girl?**Lilinette**What? Christina, why would you ask such a thing?**Christina**One of the other soldiers...he said that I... I looked like a little boy.**Lilinette**Who would dare say such a foul thing? I will track that man down!**Christina**No! I don't want you to go to him, Lily. I just wanted to know if he was right.**Lilinette**Christina, people can be cruel sometimes, especially when they don't understand. You are already beautiful, you don't need dresses or makeup to be pretty.**Christina**I know that, I've always felt more comfortable in armor than a dress. But hearing that someone thought I didn't even look like a girl... It hurt my feelings a little bit.**Lilinette**Oh Christina, it's completely normal for you to care about such things. I guess that means you ARE my little sister after all!**Christina**Don't get too full of yourself now.**Lilinette**Tee-hee.

> **Lilinette**Christina! What on earth have you done to your face?**Christina**I... I tried some of your makeup.**Lilinette**Oh, Christina! Hahaha! You've applied it all wrong, silly sister.**Christina**Stop laughing! It's not funny.**Lilinette**I'm sorry, Christina. I shouldn't have laughed. I just didn't expect you to do this.**Christina**I didn't like that you called me immature. So I figured I'd try out your makeup. I thought it would make me look older.**Lilinette**Makeup can be used to both make you appear younger or older. If you want, I can teach you how to do it properly. Like a lady!**Christina**I still have no interest in being a Lady. I want to become a real Knight. I just don't want people to think I am ugly because of it...**Lilinette**Lady Rosella, the founder of our House was a Knight as well, she was gorgeous. A Knight can look breathtaking while still being a chivalrous on the battlefield.**Christina**Alright... Then please teach me how to be more like her.**Lilinette**It would be my pleasure!
