Military Recruiter: I am disappointed in you Perin. /$ Effal {stern, disapproving}
Military Recruiter: When I meet new recruits, I expect them to look at least somewhat in shape! /$ Effal {frustrated, critical}
Military Recruiter: Yet here we are... Have you even done any training since we sent you the letter? /$ Effal {unimpressed}
Perin: I have been training! I swear! {defensive, nervous}
Military Recruiter: Oh really, has a mentor been preparing you? Surely your family could afford one. /$ Effal {condescending}
Perin: Mentor? Y-yeah, of course I have one! {stammering}
Perin: They're right there! We were just about to start my training for the day actually. {hurried}
Military Recruiter: Hmmm... /$ Effal {judging}
Military Recruiter: So you're Perin's mentor huh? There's no other way to say this, but you must be terrible at your job... /$ Effal {matter of fact}
Military Recruiter: You certainly look fit to be a soldier though. Perhaps training isn't your strong suit. /$ Effal {observing, condescending}
Military Recruiter: So how about I take you to join the Fruman military instead of Perin? /$ Effal {casual}
Military Recruiter: That sounds great! Meet us near the south Hyloch entrance, then we will take you to Fort Tericen. /$ Effal {decisive, authoritative}
Military Recruiter: Oh, and don't keep us waiting. Or it might end up on your record. /$ Effal {warning, serious}
Perin: I hope you enjoy MY spot at Tericen! {bitter, frustrated}
Perin: My mom's gonna kill me... {defeated, anxious}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Military Recruiter: There you are! Didn't I tell you not to keep us waiting? /$ Effal {irritated, sharp}
Military Recruiter: Get into the carriage, we'll take you to Fort Tericen. /$ Effal {commanding, efficient}
Military Recruiter: You don't want to miss the opening speech from the famed Sovereign Majin! /$ Effal {slightly enthusiastic}
Carriage Driver: The carriage is ready to go, we're just waiting on you. {calm, professional}
Military Recruiter: You shouldn't worry about Perin anymore. Trust me, I am doing him a favour by taking you instead. /$ Effal {dismissive, reassuring}
Military Recruiter: Although, he will surely be shamed by his community for not becoming a soldier, but frankly, he deserves it. /$ Effal {harsh, judgmental}
Military Recruiter: You must be very excited to become a recruit, I can see it on your face! /$ Effal {observant, upbeat}
Military Recruiter: But let me warn you, the process is not all sunshine and rainbows. /$ Effal {serious}
Military Recruiter: The training is grueling and competitive, every single facet of your physical ability will be tested! /$ Effal {serious}
Military Recruiter: Think you're up for it? Well, I think you could manage. You'd certainly do better than Perin! /$ Effal {challenging}
Military Recruiter: Fort Tericen is run by the esteemed Commander Ferreo. When you meet him, it's very important that you show him his due respect. /$ Effal {respectful}
Military Recruiter: The Commander's been serving since as long as I can remember. He's probably the most accomplished man in the Highlands, aside from Sovereign Majin of course! /$ Effal {admiring}
Military Recruiter: Ah, I hope you're ready, we should be arriving soon. /$ Effal {anticipating}
Carriage Driver: I don't mind, but did we really need to take the carriage? {casual}
Military Guard: Thank the Queen, I won't have to follow this idiot around anymore, now that the recruiting process is done. {relieved, muttering}
Military Recruiter: We're here, just head on in and I'll meet you up ahead inside! /$ Effal {brisk}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Arnol: Are you also here as a recruit? {friendly}
Arnol: I'm Arnol, it seems like we've made it just in time! {warm, upbeat}
Arnol: I'll let you get your uniform. We should talk after the speech. {polite, casual}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Uniform Tailor: Welcome to Fort Tericen! Congratulations on getting accepted to become a soldier! {cheerful, welcoming}
Uniform Tailor: You must be from the Highlands. The rest of the recruits have already gotten their uniforms. {matter of fact, rushing}
Uniform Tailor: Your uniform colour will be yellow. {informing}
Uniform Tailor: What is your name? I need to write it on your uniform. {attentive}
// Warning: Choosing this name will make the quest more difficult. Are you sure you want to continue?
Uniform Tailor: Alright, this will only take a second or two. {reassuring}
Uniform Tailor: All done, here is your uniform recruit! {upbeat}
Uniform Tailor: You put the uniform on over your armor. {instructing}
Uniform Tailor: Now go see Commander Ferreo, he is waiting for you in the next room. {polite}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Secretary: I see you've been given your uniform. It looks good on you! {approving}
Secretary: Need help with anything? {attentive}
// Where should I be right now?
Secretary: Commander Ferreo is waiting for you in the next room. {clear}
Secretary: Once you are done speaking with him, you'll be hearing a speech from Sovereign Majin in the stage room! {informing}
// Tell me about being a recruit.
Secretary: Recruits are separated by their divisions, their uniform colours reflect this. {informing}
Secretary: Those with red uniforms are from Auburn, cyan uniforms are from the Industrial district, white uniforms are in the Wings division... {explaining}
Secretary: Green uniforms are in the Mistwoods division, they are recruits selected from other regions based on a test that decides if they are suited for the dangerous conditions in the Mistwoods... {serious}
Secretary: Since you are in the Highlands division, your group leader is Recruiter Effal. {informing}
// Tell me about Fort Tericen
Secretary: Fort Tericen is the largest and most prestigious military training camp in Fruma, headed by the equally prestigious Commander Ferreo. {proud}
Secretary: Many of the most famous soldiers of Fruma have originated from here, you should be proud to be a part of our program! {encouraging}
// Tell me about the Fruman military.
Secretary: Most recruits already know this before coming to Fort Tericen... I suppose there is no shame in asking if you don't know. {reassuring}
Secretary: The Fruman military is composed of nine divisions, being seven regional divisions, the Constable division, and the Wings division. {explaining}
Secretary: Yes, you heard that right, seven regional divisions not six. The seventh being the Xima division which recruits soldiers directly from the Auburn division, which is why most people lump them together. {explaining}
Secretary: The Constable division has an authority level higher than all the regional divisions, and the Wings division has authority over both of them. Be careful not to step on their toes when you become a soldier! {warning, serious}
Secretary: Within each division is a ranking system used to separate leadership roles. In ascending order of authority; there are soldiers, captains, commanders, and finally a single general that manages the commanders. {explaining}
Secretary: The Wings division has some additional positions within it, like the Gendarmes. They're a group of Wings soldiers that only operate within Aelumia. {informing}
// What will happen after I complete my training?
Secretary: Don't worry, this question is more common than you'd think. {reassuring, friendly}
Secretary: In about a month, if everything goes to plan, you and the rest of the recruits will attend a ceremony and officially become Fruman soldiers! {encouraging}
Secretary: From there, you'll work in a group with other Highlands soldiers. If you are able to impress your superiors, you can be promoted to captain or even commander! {motivational, upbeat}
Secretary: Another thing that can happen if you demonstrate exception abilities is promotion to the Constable division or maybe even the Wings division! {excited, encouraging}
Secretary: There truly is fame and glory waiting ahead of you. If you are able to prove yourself. {inspiring}
Secretary: Alright, good luck on your training! {warm, supportive}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commander Ferreo: Who have you brought me Effal, this is not Perin. {stern, slightly irritated}
Recruiter Effal: You will have to excuse me Commander, but I did not deem Perin as fit to be a recruit. {nervous, respectful}
Recruiter Effal: The boy had done no training, he would not have lasted a day here! {defensive, insistent}
Recruiter Effal: I told him this myself, and while I was reprimanding him... Erm... {awkward, hesitant}
Recruiter Effal: The recruit... Had overheard our conversation and begged that I take them instead. {hesitant, cautious}
Recruiter Effal: Seeing that they looked more suitable than Perin, and hearing their reasoning as to why they should be a recruit, I decided to adhere to their request. {earnest, explaining}
Commander Ferreo: So you deliberately acted against the directions given to you? {disapproving}
Recruiter Effal: Well... Yes... I-I truly apologize for violating the orders given to me... {anxious}
Commander Ferreo: Do not go against what you are told to do again. {firm, authoritative}
Commander Ferreo: Nevertheless, if what you say about Perin is true, perhaps it is for the best that he does not become a recruit. {reluctant, accepting}
Commander Ferreo: Welcome to Fort Tericen, recruit. Enter the room to the right so that we may begin the opening speech. {formal}
Recruiter Effal: Thank you Commander! Now, let me lead you to the stage! {relieved, upbeat}
Recruiter Effal: Quickly now, head into the large door and join the rest of the recruits! {hurried, encouraging}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sovereign Majin: Welcome recruits, to the start of your training in becoming a Fruman soldier. {grand}
Sovereign Majin: You have all been carefully chosen by a group of experienced recruiters. {assured}
Sovereign Majin: They have closely reviewed your performances in physical tests of strength and agility since you were children, and have decided that you belong here. {confident}
Sovereign Majin: Do not prove to me that they were wrong. {intimidating}
Sovereign Majin: Use the opportunities given to you to show us that you deserve to be amongst your superiors. {motivational}
Sovereign Majin: Your instructors will expect the best from you, so you must show them the best. Those who refuse or are unable to do this have no place here. {strict}
Sovereign Majin: Your role will be the most important in Fruma. Ensuring the safety of the population is no small task, trust me. {serious}
Sovereign Majin: So, like I have, each of you must prove yourself worthy of being called a soldier of Fruma. {proud, resolute}
Sovereign Majin: Let my words serve as motivation for you during your training. {resolute}
Commander Ferreo: We are very thankful to Sovereign Majin for taking time out of his responsibilities to deliver the opening speech. {respectful, formal}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commander Ferreo: I regret to inform you all that Sovereign Majin is unable to attend our opening ceremony. {formal}
Commander Ferreo: In his stead, I will be the one to deliver the opening speech. {composed}
Commander Ferreo: This training program only serves as a method of preparing you for your eventual role in military service. {informing}
Commander Ferreo: With that being said, there is a difference between being a soldier, and deserving to be a soldier. {serious}
Commander Ferreo: I am sure many of you believe that you deserve to become soldiers of Fruma. You've come farther than most, this is the last step to reaching your goal. {encouraging}
Commander Ferreo: As soldiers, you represent Fruma, and Fruma is the embodiment of strength, pride, and righteousness. These traits should all be reflected in you. {inspiring}
Commander Ferreo: The instructors, your recruiters, and I expect that all of you deserve to be soldiers. If you meet or exceed our expectations, we will do our best to aid in your growth. {firm}
Commander Ferreo: If you are unsure if you are able to meet our expectations, well... I strongly suggest you take this training program seriously... {warning, intense}
Commander Ferreo: That is all. {composed}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commander Ferreo: Now we will be bringing you to your first training session of the day, I hope you all are ready. {authoritative}
Commander Ferreo: Each of you will be separated into groups depending on your division. For each challenge, your group will be paired with another group. {explaining}
Commander Ferreo: The leaders of each region grouping will be the recruiter who originally sent you the invitation letter. {formal}
Commander Ferreo: They will be the ones leading you to where you're supposed to be for the first couple of days here, following an assigned schedule. {composed}
Commander Ferreo: You are expected to be at your designated area, on time and ready. {firm, strict}
Commander Ferreo: However, if for whatever reason you get lost, go to the secretary at the main lobby desk and she will tell you where to go. {reassuring}
Commander Ferreo: Now, go convene with your recruiters in the main room to your left, then they will take you to your first training session. {commanding}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Arnol: That was a pretty good speech, I was a bit nervous, but now I am ready to start the training! {excited}
Arnol: I'm Arnol, I come from the nobel Highlands Tasa family, Fruma has done so much for us, so I am ready to help her. {proud, earnest}
Arnol: I'm glad that you're from the Highlands. That means we're in the same group! {friendly}
Arnol: How about you and I stick together during our training? {hopeful}
Arnol: My family tells me that recruits often end up becoming very... competitive... {cautious, uneasy}
Arnol: So I think we can both benefit from sticking together, and watching each others' backs. {sincere}
Arnol: Anyways, we should head to our group's leader, I think his name is Effal? {casual}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Recruiter Strumon: I'm not the person you're looking for, go see Recruiter Effal. {brief, dismissive}
Saldin: Oh hey, you're from the Highlands! I'm from Aelumia but I grew up in Hyloch. {friendly}
Saldin: I was assigned to the Wings group though, I'm a bit worried about meeting those expectations... {nervous, uncertain}
Saldin: Heh, Oh well, that's what training is for, right? {lighthearted}
Adder: I have spent nearly my entire life training to become a soldier. I wonder how many other recruits here could say the same. {serious}
Adder: The Fruman military is in somewhat of a dire state right now, with resistance attacks becoming more brazen than seemingly ever. {grave}
Adder: The duty will fall to us to return things back to normalcy. I am up to the task, and I hope you are too. {determined}
Recruiter Olissy: You look lost, don't worry, I can help you! Go find Recruiter Effal, he's wearing a yellow headband and is near the center of the room. {helpful}
Yvonne: How do you feel about being accepted into the Mistwoods division? I am pretty excited about it, glad Recruiter Olissy noticed my value. {enthusiastic, proud}
Madelen: As someone from Auburn, I'm a bit unsure still, but the recruiters know what they are doing, so I will trust their judgement. {uncertain}
Yvonne: I don't know much about the Mistwoods either, but I guarantee we will be ready for whatever is in store for us there! {confident}
Madelen: I do {quiet}
Petur: ... {silent}
Kyren: You're from the Highlands? I recognize everyone in that group except you, strange... {suspicious, curious}
Kyren: Well, just a word of advice, be careful when picking your friends, it means everything here. {serious, cautioning}
Kyren: If you know the right people, you can climb the ranks quickly. But you must also have to have the abilities to go along with it of course. {matter of fact}
Recruiter Riva: I am not your team leader. Go find Recruiter Effal, the person wearing the same coloured clothes as you. {normal}
Recruiter Riva: Shouldn't be too hard to do, I'd think. {dry}
Halbe: Alright, time to put these skills to use! Are you ready for this, Katze? {energetic}
Katze: I'm ready! Let's show everyone we're the best! {confident, excite}
Wilton: Excuse me, Ezero sir, is it true the soldiers around here call Commander Ferreo 'The Iron Commander'? {curious, cautious}
Recruiter Ezero: I believe he used to go by that nickname in his younger years, he was quite the fearsome leader. {reflecting, respectful}
Recruiter Ezero: You should be careful not to get on his bad side... The last guy that did got exiled to Wynn... {ominous}
Wilton: R-really? What did they do?... {alarmed, anxious}
Recruiter Ezero: Heh, I'm just messing with you kid, you don't have to worry about him, he's softened up a lot over the years. {amused, reassuring}
Holger: I'm so glad to finally be out of the Roughworks. Although, after the training, we will have to go back... {relieved, uneasy}
Matilda: I figured you'd be used to it after spending your whole life living there. {matter of fact}
Kerry: I think Holger is just impressed by the luxuries of the Highlands. I'd imagine even the slums here are fancier than the Roughworks. {amused}
Recruiter Ezero: Sorry, but I'm not your team leader, since your in the Highlands group, your team leader is uhmm... Ah, it's Recruiter Effal. {apologetic, thinking}
Recruiter Alena: Do you need help with something recruit? Your team leader is Recruiter Effal, go see him for instructions. {kind, professional}
Verdi: Are you nervous like me? We're about to start the training and I still don't feel ready. {anxious}
Verdi: I shouldn't worry, if anything goes wrong, I know Recruiter Alena will be there to help. {reassuring self}
Verdi: But at the same time, It's hard not to be scared... {fearful, honest}
Robin: You know it's not too late to turn back. You risk losing more than just your pride here. {serious, warning}
Robyn: Good one! You should know by now that I'd never let you steal all the glory! {playful, competitive}
Robyn: Definitely not going to happen. After hearing that speech from Sovereign Majin, I feel like I could take on the entire resistance! {enthusiastic}
Lynn: Ugh... How did Arnol end up here?... {annoyed}
Priscilla: That speech was amazing... {awed, emotional}
Priscilla: Still, I am a bit upset Sovereign Majin was unable to attend. Just imagine what wisdom he would have imparted on us... {disappointed}
Priscilla: That speech from Sovereign Majin was amazing... {reverent, admiring}
Priscilla: I was almost brought to tears... I wish with all my heart that I may serve under him one day! {devoted}
Arnol: Alright... I can do this... {nervous, determined}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Recruiter Effal: There you are. Didn't I tell you? Ah, never mind... {impatient, mildly annoyed}
Recruiter Effal: Listen, remember that talk we had with Ferreo, how about that just stays between us ok? {quiet, cautious}
Recruiter Effal: I better not see you gossiping to other recruits about it, that would make me very upset! {stern, warning}
Recruiter Effal: The first test for our group is the shield challenge, everyone follow my lead. {informing, composed}
Military Instructor: Welcome recruits to the shield challenge. {formal, authoritative}
Military Instructor: Defense is one of the most important aspects of combat. You should not expect yourself to be able to dodge every incoming attack. {serious}
Military Instructor: A shield can be an incredibly useful tool for a soldier, but holding them up constantly can often interfere with your mobility. {explaining}
Military Instructor: Knowing when to hold up your shield to defend yourself against incoming arrows or attackers, is thus, a vital skill to learn. {explaining}
Military Instructor: Your training today will revolve around holding up a shield against arrows that are being fired from turrets. {explaining}
Military Instructor: The turrets will give an indication of when they are about to fire, however, the shields provided to you have weights embedded into them. {explaining, cautioning}
Military Instructor: Most of you will only be able to hold your shield up for a second or two at a time, so you must do so wisely. {serious, warning}
Military Instructor: I have set up a turret here that you can use to practice getting used to handling the weighted shield. {helpful}
Military Instructor: Simply stand where I am now, then click the button behind me. Face the turret and hold up your shield when, or just before, it fires an arrow. {explaining}
Military Instructor: Good luck recruits, I will be judging you from an overlook point. If you haven't already, take a shield from the shield rack next to Recruiter Effal. {formal}
Military Instructor: When you're ready to start the challenge, enter the large door behind me. {commanding}
Recruiter Effal: Don't worry recruit, this one is the easiest of the three challenges. {reassuring, casual}
Recruiter Effal: Or was it the endurance challenge that was the easiest? Hmmm, I forget. {uncertain}
Recruiter Riva: Stop lingering around. The sooner you get this challenge done, the sooner I get to have lunch. {impatient, blunt}
Kyren: That's it, holding up a shield against turrets? What a bore. {dismissive}
Kyren: It seems like the instructors are basing these challenges off of the idea that we haven't done any training beforehand. {unimpressed}
Kyren: They are wasting our time. Anyone who would struggle in a challenge like this has no hope of amounting to anything. {arrogant, condescending}
Arnol: These shields are really heavy, it feels like I can only hold them up for around half a second... {strained, concerned}
Arnol: There's no point in overthinking this, I'm sure we'll both do well! {encouraging, optimistic}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Military Instructor: It's your turn recruit, stand on that plate to start the test. {informing}
Military Instructor: Well done, now exit through the door across from you. {approving}
Recruiter Effal: You've really made a habit of testing my patience... {irritated, disapproving}
Recruiter Effal: Your performance better make up for it. Now, follow me to the next challenge. {stern, commanding}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Arnol: Hey, I am ashamed to say it, but things didn't go well for me... {embarrassed, disappointed}
Arnol: I wasn't able to complete the challenge... {downcast}
Arnol: I couldn't even manage to raise the shield up to block a single arrow! After a while, the instructor just told me to move on. {frustrated}
Arnol: I should have seen this coming... What about you, how did things go for you? {resigned, curious}
// I completed the challenge without failing.
Arnol: Good job! I am glad that one of us was able to do well. I'd like to learn about how you did it later. {supportive}
// I had trouble with it at first, but was able to succeed in the end.
Arnol: Good job! I am glad that you managed to finish. We should talk more about it later. {encouraging, friendly}
// How were you unable to block any of the arrows?
Arnol: Well, maybe you just had more strength training than me. The shield was just too heavy to hold up, I don't know what else to say. {defensive, insecure}
Arnol: We should go to our next challenge now, let's hope Effal doesn't erupt at us for being late. {anxious, hurried}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Military Instructor: Now that everyone's here, we may finally begin. {authoritative, composed}
Military Instructor: As a soldier, you will be defined by your endurance, it is your will to carry on through the fight! {inspiring}
Military Instructor: The terrain you battle on will never be optimal, so you must be able to adapt to it to ensure your success. {serious}
Military Instructor: As part of this training exercise, you will be jumping from platforms until you reach the end of an endurance course. {explaining}
Military Instructor: If you fall, you will have to go back to the start and continue from there. {explaining}
Military Instructor: We have installed jump pads on the platforms to help ease you into making riskier leaps. {explaining}
Military Instructor: To use the jump pads, simply stand on them and jump. The mechanism will detect the sudden weight loss and boost you. {explaining}
Military Instructor: I've installed a jump pad in this room to the right of me if any of you want to practice before starting the course. {helpful}
Military Instructor: Soon you'll all hopefully be able to complete a course similar to this one but without the crutch. {encouraging}
Military Instructor: You may enter the large door behind me to begin. Oh, and your performance will be judged on how quickly you reach the exit. {informing}
Recruiter Strumon: What is it, do you want advice? {slightly impatient}
Recruiter Strumon: Well, I can recommend that you go quickly, but you must also be aware of your surroundings. {practical}
Recruiter Strumon: The rest is up to you, think carefully about how you want to approach this. {serious}
Recruiter Effal: Yeah, it was this one that was the easiest challenge for me! {casual}
Recruiter Effal: Just get through the platforms as quickly as you can and you'll be fine. {reassuring, dismissive}
Arnol: I'm going to take my time on the jumps. After what happened in the first challenge, there's no point in rushing through. {cautious, determined}
Arnol: Alright, I think I'm ready, let's sit together in the cafeteria after this. {hopeful, friendly}
Adder: I am surprised by the amount of recruits who rush head first into these challenges. {critical}
Adder: Why not think about your approach beforehand? They are all setting themselves up for failure. {analytical, disapproving}
Military Instructor: You're up recruit, good luck! {encouraging}
Recruiter Effal: Not a bad time, of course, not as good as mine, but it's fine since you're still learning. {smug}
Recruiter Effal: It's time to head to the cafeteria for lunch with the other recruits. Follow me, I'll show you where it is. {casual}
Recruiter Effal: Go through that corridor and then enter into the room on the right. Try not to eat too much, alright? {joking}
Halbe: The chef did a great job with these meals. They must be from Aelumia! {impressed}
Lynn: It's a shame that the lesser recruits also get to have it. I would have had them eating from a trough with the horses! {snobbish, disdainful}
Katze: I certainly don't look forward to having to sleep in the same room as the Auburn recruits... {uncomfortable, judgmental}
Kyren: So, the challenges, how did they go for you? {casual, probing}
Dogi: Well! Things went well! They were a bit difficult but I managed. {cheerful, proud}
Kyren: That's good to hear, we want to make sure everyone in our circle does well on them, so try to keep it that way. {controlled}
Yvonne: I hope our training gets tougher, I'd hardly call them challenges given their current difficulty. {confident, dismissive}
Madelen: We were accepted into the Mistwoods division, it makes sense that these challenges are easier for us. {logical, calm}
Yvonne: Yeah, you're right, Recruiter Olissy told me herself that she sees great potential in us. We should try our best to live up to her expectations, and the expectations set for us as future Mistwoods soldiers as well! {motivated, proud}
Adder: I have been watching many of the recruits, seeing how they act and communicate with each other, and frankly, it worries me. {concerned, analytical}
Adder: Many of them are treating Fort Tericen like some sort of children's school, they do not seem to understand what awaits them. {critical, disapproving}
Adder: Of course, it is still only the first day, so hopefully this behaviour does not persist. {measured}
Adder: And if it does. I trust that Commander Ferreo will deal with it. {serious, confident}
Saldin: Commander Ferreo has been working for the Fruman military for a long time, we're lucky to be training under him. {respectful, admiring}
Saldin: I hear he was offered a blessing early on in his service, back when he was still in the Highlands division. He was very famous back then, everyone in Hyloch and Aelumia knew him! {excited}
Saldin: I hope I can accomplish ending up as half the soldier he was! {hopeful}
Matilda: None of my friends ended up being chosen to become a recruit like I was, I feel like a complete stranger here. {uneasy}
Matilda: But that's fine, we aren't here to socialize, we are here to prove ourselves worthy of the title of soldier! {resolute}
Wilton: I didn't do too well on the first two challenges, I hope I can make up for it on my last one. {worried, determined}
Robin: Really Holger? You get access to a giant buffet and all you get is a salad and a small fish? {teasing, incredulous}
Robyn: You idiot, not everyone needs to stuff their face with food like you! This is why mom says I'm the smarter one. {mocking, annoyed}
Robin: Well who does she say the stronger one is? That's what really matters! {defensive}
Kerry: Can you two go five minutes without arguing with each other? {exasperated, annoyed}
Arnol: There you are, come sit next to me so we can talk about the second challenge. {eager}
Arnol: It's nice to finally eat something. I skipped breakfast today, I was too worried that I'd end up hurling it back up. {relieved, slightly embarrassed}
Arnol: Anyways, about the endurance training. It took some time, but I figured out the perfect strategy to get through the course! {excited, proud}
Arnol: I definitely am better at agility tests, I wonder if the instructors will take that into account when grading us. {hopeful}
Arnol: How about you, did you struggle with the jumps, or finish the course quickly? {curious}
// I finished the course quickly.
Arnol: Well done! I knew you'd- {enthusiastic}
// I managed to find a way through the course after a while.
Arnol: It sure was tricky, but at least- {encouraging}
// Why would I tell you?
Arnol: Oh... Well, I guess you don't- {awkward, slightly hurt}
Military Guard: You are Arnol, yes? You must come with me. {firm, authoritative}
Arnol: I am in the middle of eating, can't I go after I finish my meal? {confused, reluctant}
Military Guard: No. {cold, unyeilding}
Military Recruiter: You're not sitting with anyone? You're a strange one, recruit. /$ Effal {observant}
Military Recruiter: The last challenge of the day will be dueling, the other Highlands recruits are already heading there, follow me. /$ Effal {brisk}
Kyren: What was that about, where do you think that guy took Katze? {concerned}
Halbe: No clue, but it seems like that Arnol kid was also asked to go with them. {uncertain, uneasy}
Kyren: Whatever it is, it doesn't seem good... {wary}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commander Ferreo: Your final challenge today will be singular combat against another recruit. {authoritative, commanding}
Commander Ferreo: When up against the enemy, you may find yourself in a similar situation. You must be prepared for when this happens. {serious}
Commander Ferreo: This test serves as a way to further gauge your skills, as well as an opportunity to show off the strategies you have developed in melee. {composed}
Commander Ferreo: The most important skill to have in a duel is patience, to know when you have an opening to attack. But of course, agility and strength are also deciding factors. {measured}
Commander Ferreo: Use your agility to avoid attacks, but if you find yourself unable to dodge, you must stand on guard and block incoming attacks. {firm}
Commander Ferreo: Blocking precisely as your opponent strikes may catch them off guard, allowing you an opportunity to retaliate. {strategic}
Commander Ferreo: Your weapon is a wooden training estoc. The edges are dulled, so you will not need to hold back your strength. {matter of fact}
Commander Ferreo: Your performance will be judged by me, if I see one side clearly winning over the other I will declare a victor. {strict}
Commander Ferreo: Make sure to get yourself an estoc before entering the challenge room, I will oversee the challenges shortly, so do not start until I get there. {commanding}
Commander Ferreo: I would like a word with you first. {serious}
Recruiter Effal: It seems like the commander wants to see you, just look at how he's staring at you... {uneasy}
Recruiter Effal: Well whatever it's about, try not to make me look bad, ok? {nervous}
Recruiter Effal: I hope your talk with Ferreo went well. {curious}
Recruiter Effal: I'll just assume things went well, based on the fact that you're still in this room. {slightly joking}
Recruiter Olissy: Sorry recruit, there's not much advice I can give you here, I wasn't that good at this challenge during my training. {apologetic}
Recruiter Olissy: I just could never bring myself to go all out on a fellow recruit, what if I accidentally hurt them? {hesitant}
Recruiter Olissy: Ah, here's some advice! Don't do what I did, and you'll do fine! {cheerful}
Yvonne: Dueling against other recruits seems strange to me... Won't we be working together when we become soldiers? {confused, thoughtful}
Yvonne: It's fine, I don't want to question Commander Ferreo. He's dedicated his life to protecting others, I trust his opinion more than mine. {respectful}
Lynn: So, it looks like your buddy Arnol quit early, what else is new? {mocking, smug}
Lynn: From the moment I saw him here, I knew he wouldn't be able to last a day. {condescending, dismissive}
Lynn: But, if it turns out that he didn't leave, I wouldn't stick with him, if I were you. {warning}
Lynn: You don't want his weakness to rub off on you. {disdainful}
Commander Ferreo: I've been looking forward to speaking with you, one on one. {intense}
Commander Ferreo: I want you to remember that the only reason you're here is because I allowed you to be here, and because I see some potential in you. {firm, assertive}
Commander Ferreo: If you are unable to realize this potential fully, or become more trouble than you're worth, I won't hesitate to have you kicked out. {threatening, stern}
Commander Ferreo: So, for your sake, I hope you do well on these challenges. {cold, expectant}
Commander Ferreo: Step up, and the duel may begin. {commanding, decisive}
Commander Ferreo: Alright, I have seen enough. {authoritative}
Commander Ferreo: The recruit is the victor. {declaring}
Commander Ferreo: Now, both of you, exit the room and take a look at your final rankings of the day. {formal}
Commander Ferreo: That was the last training exercise for the day. {composed}
Commander Ferreo: Your ranking can be found on the board over there. Be sure to take a look, I hope it can serve as motivation. {encouraging}
Commander Ferreo: Once you're done here, head up to the recruit barracks and rest for the night. {calm, instructing}
Commander Ferreo: The barracks are up those stairs in the room directly across from the staircase. {informing}
Madelen: Could be better, but after all, training is supposed to reveal our weaknesses. {reflecting}
Matilda: What a day huh? I hope you ended up with a ranking that you're proud of. {friendly}
Matilda: If, like me, you didn't do well, don't think too hard about it. A good night's rest will cheer you up. {reassuring}
Matilda: It's not as big of a deal as the other recruits will lead you to believe, trust me. {comforting, confident}
Adder: It is just as I expected. Despite it being the first day, many recruits struggled catastrophically in their training. {critical, analytical}
Adder: Their scores will only go down from here. I doubt any of them have the will to dig themselves out from the dirt. {pessimistic}
Adder: I wonder how long it will be until something is done about this. {expectant}
Robin: Looks like brawn beats brains again, huh sis? {teasing, smug}
Robyn: More like luck beats brains! If our training was more realistic then everyone would see that I am clearly better. {competitive}
Yvonne: How could I have ranked so low? I must try harder to show my worth as a soldier! {distressed, determined}
Yvonne: I hope Recruiter Olissy will forgive me for this... {worried}
Lynn: Look at that disappointment moping in the corner, I think 18th place suits him well. {mocking, cruel}
Priscilla: Arnol? Well... It was only the first day. He could improve... {hesitant, hopeful}
Lynn: What?! Oh wait... You didn't do too well either, did you? {taunting, amused}
Priscilla: ... {silent, hurt}
Halbe: Wow, that Adder guy sure is something... {impressed, surprised}
Halbe: I shouldn't be surprised though, him and Saldin are on a different level from the rest of us. {acknowledging, thoughtful}
Halbe: I too will reach that level soon, I will prove my worth to the Commander! {determined}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Arnol: Hey. It feels like it's been a while since we've last seen each other. {tired, subdued}
Arnol: It's been a long day, I feel so tired already. Heh, it's pathetic... {exhausted}
Arnol: I've been avoiding it because it's embarrassing, but I think you deserve to know. {hesitant, sincere}
Arnol: Regarding what happened in the cafeteria, another recruit and I were taken to the guard barracks. {uneasy, serious}
Arnol: They wanted the room to be spotless before the end of the day... It was a punishment for not doing well enough on the training. {resentful, ashamed}
Arnol: After that, they took me to the dueling room, an instructor hastily explained what to do. And, well... The duel didn't last very long... {embarrassed, defeated}
Arnol: I just wished they would give me more of a chance to prove myself. I know I can do better! {frustrated, determined}
Arnol: This isn't what I expected Tericen to be like. It feels absurd to subject your recruits to that on the first day! {disillusioned, upset}
Arnol: There's something I want to tell you in a more private area. Before you go to bed, talk to me in the barracks. {serious, cautious}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Katze: Are you here to humiliate me further? Go ahead, laugh, I don't care! {defensive, bitter}
Katze: I'll make you and everyone else who mocked me eat their words! {angry, determined}
Katze: I'll become stronger, stronger than all of you! I-I just need more time. {desperate}
Kerry: So how do you feel about all of this after the first day? {curious, casual}
Wilton: It was alright, I don't see the point in the ranking system though, we're all going to become soldiers in the end. {uncertain, questioning}
Kerry: It's just something to keep us engaged, to make sure everyone is doing their best in the training I think. {thoughtful, explaining}
Kyren: You lied to me... Don't ever think about talking to me again until you get at least 3rd place in the rankings! {cold, angry}
Dogi: I'm sorry! I was just too embarrassed to tell you the truth! {panicked}
Dogi: I-I can make up for this! Please! I don't want to be alone here! {desperate, pleading}
Petur: ...? {silent}
Arnol: I want to apologize to you. Earlier today, when I told you my reason for wanting to become a soldier, I lied. {ashamed, sincere}
Arnol: I didn't come to Fort Tericen out of any noble duty to serve Fruma. I came here because it was a last resort for me. {honest, heavy}
Arnol: I originally wanted to become a scholar at the royal university. If I were a member of a more powerful house, I would have been accepted in, no question. {regretful, reflecting}
Arnol: They made me take a test to be let in, and I failed it. On top of that, they refused to let me retake it. {frustrated, hurt}
Arnol: My father was furious with me, he was concerned with how I could bring honour to our house. So he turned to his friends in the military. {anxious, burdened}
Arnol: He pulled some strings, and here I am, becoming a soldier in order to bring more respect to house Tasa. {resigned, conflicted}
Arnol: I am not telling you this because I want you to pity me. I want you to know why this is so important to me. {earnest}
Arnol: If word went around that a member of house Tasa was forced to clean the guard barracks as a punishment... {worried, tense}
Arnol: Well... Everything my father has done for me could be wasted, and I would be an even bigger failure than before... {fearful}
Arnol: That's all I wanted to tell you. I hope you can understand why I lied to you, I just didn't know if I could trust you with this, but now I do. {trusting}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Groggy Guard: GET BACK TO BED RECRUIT! /$ Military Guard {angry, exhausted}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commander Ferreo: So how did it go, is Verdi alright? {concerned, serious}
Military Doctor: I'm afraid not Commander, his injuries are severe. I recommend sending him home to recover. {somber, professional}
Military Doctor: Maybe after he regains his former strength, he will be able to rejoin the program, but it's difficult to say... {uncertain}
Commander Ferreo: To think that this damage was done with a training sword... It's... Incredible. {astonished}
Recruiter Strumon: What do you think should be done, Commander, should Adder be punished for harming a fellow recruit? {inquiring, concerned}
Commander Ferreo: No. This is an opportunity, Strumon, one that I do not want to let slip. Verdi will be sent home, and that recruit of your's will not be punished, but praised. {calculated}
Commander Ferreo: If Majin wants better results, this is how we do that... Just make sure to keep Adder in line, we don't want him going too far. {resolute, controlled}
Military Doctor: Who is that? Is someone watching us? {alarmed, suspicious}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Arnol: Hey, are you awake? You slept through the alarm bell. {concerned, amused}
//You should talk to Arnol before leaving.
Arnol: Everyone has already gone to start the training for today, I told Effal that I'd wake you up. {helpful}
Arnol: What! A recruit was injured so badly during the dueling training they had to be sent home?! {shocked, alarmed}
Arnol: And Adder was the one to do this? I did see that he got the highest ranking in the challenges yesterday... {concerned, processing}
Arnol: It must have been an accident, maybe Adder forgot to hold back? I've heard people say that the strength of one Wings soldier is equal to three regional soldiers. {uncertain, rationalizing}
Arnol: This doesn't seem right... Why would Commander Ferreo see that as an "opportunity"? What could that mean... {uneasy, suspicious}
Arnol: We have to get down to the bottom of this. How about we confront Adder during lunch, and ask him what happened during his duel on the first day. {determined}
Arnol: But we need to get going now, I imagine Effal and the other recruits aren't happy waiting for us. Follow me, I'll lead you to the training room. {hurried}
Military Instructor: Well, it looks like we can start now that everyone's here. {authoritative}
Military Instructor: Most of you did well on the first course, so we're going to be upping the difficulty this time. I trust that you're all ready. {challenging, confident}
Military Instructor: Make sure to watch where you're going, this course will have false platforms to trick you up if you're not paying attention. {warning}
Military Instructor: Like before, you'll be judged based on how quickly you can complete the course and reach the exit. {formal}
Military Instructor: I left the jump pad in here in case you want to get used to the feeling again. Enter the large door behind me to start the course when you're ready. {helpful}
Recruiter Effal: You realize your bad behaviour makes me look even worse for bringing you in, right? {irritated, accusatory}
Recruiter Effal: If I catch you sleeping in, going where you're not supposed to, or doing anything out of line again... You'll come to regret it... {stern}
Dogi: I've been disgraced by my friends for getting ranked low yesterday... Now I don't feel like I have the will to do anything... {defeated, ashamed}
Dogi: D-Do you think I could regain their trust by getting a high ranking? No... I'm still not strong enough... {hopeless}
Arnol: This is the challenge I did the best on yesterday. It should be mostly the same, hopefully. Slow and steady wins the race. {cautious, optimistic}
Arnol: I'm not going to rush into these challenges like yesterday, I need time to think about what I am going to do. {focused, determined}
Recruiter Riva: Took you a while to find your way here, did you get lost or something? {mocking, impatient}
Recruiter Riva: You're lucky Effal is a pushover, if you were in my group, you'd be out of here without a second thought. {dismissive}
Military Instructor: You're up recruit, do your best! {encouraging}
Recruiter Effal: Well... That was a disappointment. You've been given many second chances and this is what you do to give thanks? {disappointed, critical}
Recruiter Effal: If your mediocrity persists, I'll have no choice but to let you go, for both of our sake's. Now follow me to the next training room. {cold, decisive}
Arnol: Hey, I think the challenge went well. I managed to complete it at least, although I can't say for certain if I made good time. {relieved}
Arnol: I couldn't help but feel off about what the instructor said when I started the course... "Good luck Arnol... Not that it would matter...". {uneasy}
Arnol: What is that supposed to mean? I thought instructors were supposed to encourage us, helping us do better in the training. {frustrated}
Arnol: I'm beginning to think that this training program is more about shaming us rather than preparing us to become soldiers. I wonder if the other recruits are starting to believe this as well... {disillusioned, concerned}
Military Instructor: Welcome recruits to day two of your training in the shield challenge. {authoritative}
Military Instructor: I'll keep the summary short since I'm sure most of you remember the gist of the test from yesterday. {brief}
Military Instructor: This time, instead of three turrets shooting at you, the number has been upped to five. {matter of fact}
Military Instructor: On top of that, the three central turrets have been elevated. You'll have to aim your shield higher to block arrows coming from them. {explaining}
Military Instructor: I've also adjusted the turret timings a little. Two turrets are now able to fire at you in quick succession, you must be ready to block the arrows from both of them. {explaining}
Military Instructor: I noticed that some of you struggled with lifting the shield on the first day... {observant, critical}
Military Instructor: Perhaps those people would like some sort of crutch to help them perform better, but I must say that no such thing will be granted. {cold, dismissive}
Military Instructor: I believe that failure can be an excellent teacher. Some of you may still need to learn that failure should elicit a change from yourself. {stern}
Military Instructor: For those recruits, until this lesson is fully learned, continued failure will be far more valuable than success. {harsh, uncompromising}
Military Instructor: With that being said, I wish all of you luck on the challenge! Pick up a shield on the rack next to Recruiter Ezero if you haven't. {formal}
Military Instructor: Then, once you're ready, enter the large door behind me to start the test. Oh, and the training turret is still here if you need it. {composed}
Recruiter Effal: Five turrets already? Seems like they're doing things a bit quicker than usual. {surprised, uneasy}
Recruiter Effal: Just don't look at it as increased difficulty, instead, look at it is an increased chance to show your might! {encouraging}
Arnol: That wretch... Looking directly at me while he talks about failure... {angry, humiliated}
Arnol: I'll make him eat those words... Maybe not today, but eventually... I'm done with letting people walk all over me! {resentful, determined}
Arnol: Thank you for being here to listen to me, I don't know where I'd be right now without you... {grateful, sincere}
Arnol: After this, we'll meet in the cafeteria, and discuss what you saw last night with Adder. {serious}
Lynn: Heh... It seems like the instructor had a specific person here in mind when he talked about failures! {mocking, amused}
Lynn: When will Arnol realize he can't keep playing pretend soldier? {condescending, cruel}
Wilton: Not this again... I think I can already guess how this will go for me... {resigned, anxious}
Wilton: Do you think if I duck when the arrow comes, the instructor will count it as a block? {half joking, desperate}
Recruiter Ezero: Ah the shield challenge... Back when I was a recruit this test was the bane of many of my peers! {nostalgic, amused}
Recruiter Ezero: It was a lot different back then, yet it seems that it's reputation hasn't changed much. Funny little coincidence I suppose. {reflecting, lighthearted}
Military Instructor: Alright, recruit, stand on that plate in front of you to start the test. {instructing}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Military Instructor: Good job recruit, exit through the door across from you. {approving}
Recruiter Effal: You're all done now. Was the added difficulty too much? It seemed like it was for your friend Arnol, he stormed out after he finished. {observant, slightly concerned}
Recruiter Effal: That's definitely not how a soldier should act, even I know that! Maybe you can teach him some manners at lunch. {disapproving}
Recruiter Effal: Anyway, you probably know the drill by now. Head up to the cafeteria and go enjoy your meal. {casual, dismissive}
Kyren: That Wings recruit, Adder, do you know anything about him? Why did he refuse to sit with us? {curious}
Lynn: He seems like a complete nobody, I don't think he's from the Highlands or Aelumia. I wouldn't bother with him, personally. {dismissive}
Kyren: Well I didn't ask for your thoughts on the matter... I just want to know how a complete unknown like him was able to score higher than all of us! {irritated, frustrated}
Halbe: How were you accepted into the Wings division? It's my goal here to be able to become a Wings soldier! {excited, aspirational}
Saldin: Well honestly, I'm not sure. I guess Recruiter Strumon just saw something in me? I was also stronger than my friends, so maybe that was it. {uncertain}
Halbe: Hmmm... So if I can impress Recruiter Strumon then I might be able to make it into your group? {hopeful}
Saldin: Well not exactly. Recruiter Strumon only accepts recruits. If you want to be promoted into the Wings division as an Aelumia soldier then you'd need to impress a Wings Commander, or Sovereign Majin... {informative, cautious}
Halbe: Darn... That sounds harder than I thought it'd be... {disappointed}
Priscilla: Two others have been expelled from our friend group... Will I be the next one to go? {anxious, fearful}
Priscilla: Oh... Dear Queen... Please give me the strength to do well in the training. I can't end up like the others! {distressed}
Madelen: Did you speak to Recruiter Ollisy about your ranking from yesterday's training, what did she say? {curious}
Yvonne: She assured me that it was not that big of a deal, and I have lots of time to improve. I suppose I was being a bit overdramatic... {relieved, reflecting}
Madelen: In the Fruman military's eyes, we already passed the test. We're all going to be soldiers after the training, the ranking just encourages us to constantly improve. {logical, reassuring}
Yvonne: That's true, I will use my poor ranking as a reminder that I have much to improve on. I will make sure that today, my ranking will be higher! {determined, motivated}
Adder: I have seen you and Arnol together a lot. I am confused with what you see in him. Is it because of his family name? {cold, analytical}
Adder: If that is the case, I can assure you there are better options. Ones that will not hold you back. {dismissive, condescending}
Dogi: So... This is how it feels to eat alone at lunch... I hate it... {lonely, defeated}
Matilda: These challenges have been so difficult... I wonder if my performance will end up on my record, I hope not... {worried, anxious}
Matilda: Ha! What am I worried about, this is only the second day of a month of training! I'm sure I will get better before then. {encouraging}
Kerry: Hey, wasn't there someone else in your group, what happened to them? {curious, casual}
Robyn: Eh? I'm not sure, they seemed really jumpy, my guess is they couldn't handle the pressure and wanted to go home. {speculative, dismissive}
Robin: Maybe you should take their example sis. I can tell already that you're struggling to keep up with everyone else! {teasing, competitive}
Wilton: It seems like things are starting to look better for me in these challenges! Maybe if I keep this up, I can manage a spot in the top five! {optimistic, excited}
Holger: This is my third serving, you really ought to take advantage of this buffet! Oh... I hope I don't get a cramp... {enthusiastic}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Arnol: Ah, you're here, come on, let's go ask Adder about how his duel went yesterday... {serious}
Arnol: Hey there, you're Adder right? I saw that you were first on the ranking yesterday, great job! {polite, respectful}
Arnol: We were wondering how the duel went for you yesterday. We erm... Both did poorly on it and wanted to know how you won yours, just tell us what happened during the fight. {awkward}
Adder: You want to know how my duel went yesterday? Well, when it started I didn't engage immediately, I wanted to gauge the strength of my opponent. {calm, analytical}
Adder: Despite leaving myself open for attack many times, my opponent couldn't even land a single hit on me. When I grew tired of that farse, I brutally retaliated... {cold, detached}
Adder: Even after he was yelling for me to stop, yelling "I yield!" at the top of his lungs, I continued. People like that should not become soldiers. {judgemental}
Adder: I stopped after he finally finished yelling, he had to be carried out by two guards. Commander Ferreo was watching the whole time, and did not intervene. {matter of fact, clinical}
Adder: You wanted to know how the duel went, that is how. He never should have been here in the first place, and I did the Fruman military a favour by making sure he will never come back. {justifying, firm}
Arnol: You monster... He wanted to dedicate his life to serving the Queen and the people he loved, and you took that all away from him... {furious, shaken}
Adder: The will to do something means nothing, no matter how strong it is, if you do not have the ability to do it. {cold, dismissive}
Adder: He would have just gotten himself killed, or worse, gotten others killed. What I did was serve Fruma to the best of my ability, I am no monster. {rationalizing, stern}
Arnol: No true soldier would ever intentionally injure an ally... Let's go, this conversation is over. {angry, resolute}
Adder: Are you the one who told him to ask me about that? Who are you exactly? {suspicious, probing}
Arnol: Come sit next to me, I want to discuss what just happened. {serious}
Arnol: I expected the worst yet was still surprised by that... That fiend really did it on purpose, and Commander Ferreo let it happen... {disturbed, disillusioned}
Arnol: I suppose we should talk about how the shield challenge went. That might end up making me angrier, but I should tell you... {frustrated, resigned}
Arnol: I started the test, confident, ready to make that instructor eat his words, show him that I am not a failure. And I still couldn't block a single arrow. {embarrassed, defeated}
Arnol: He wouldn't even let me retry it, just told me to leave the room. I protested, I said that wasn't fair, but he insisted... {frustrated, helpless}
Arnol: And what about you, how did the shield challenge go? {curious}
// I was able to complete the challenge.
Arnol: That's great to hear, maybe you can show me how you did it sometime- {hopeful}
// Like you, I was not able to complete the challenge.
Arnol: I'm sorry to hear about that, we're in this together- {sympathetic}
// Why do you care?
Arnol: I-I was just wondering... No need to get- {nervous, taken aback}
Arnol: Ah, you again... I've decided that I won't be going with you, I have done nothing to deserve such punishment, and will not stand to be treated like this. {defiant, tense}
Recruiter Effal: Don't talk to him like he's one of your servants, Arnol. Your family name means nothing here, if he asks you to go with him, you must go! {strict, reprimanding}
Military Guard: This childish tantrum of yours will be noted. Now come with me before you start a scene. You are here to serve us, not the other way around. {authoritative, cold}
Recruiter Effal: Wow, I didn't think Arnol had it in him to talk back to someone like that... Anyway, are you ready for dueling? Follow me. {surprised}
Kyren: Poor Arnol, he's going to become a soldier and yet he still can't control his temper tantrums. {mocking, amused}
Kyren: What's next? Is he going to ask Commander Ferreo if he can change his diaper for him? {sarcastic, mocking}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commander Ferreo: This will be the last of your training for today. Singular melee combat against another recruit. {formal, authoritative}
Commander Ferreo: The rules are the same as the day prior. Grab a training sword if you have not from the table and enter the large door when you are ready. {instructing}
Commander Ferreo: I will be unable to oversee your challenges today as there is something I must attend to. I have asked another instructor to do so, they are waiting in the dueling rooms. {matter of fact}
Commander Ferreo: Now go start the duels, good luck recruits. {dismissive, formal}
Recruiter Effal: Commander Ferreo wants to speak with you, don't keep him waiting. {urgent, serious}
Recruiter Alena: Remember not to take things too seriously here. Being a good soldier is not always about winning. {calm, reassuring}
Robyn: Don't tell him I said this, but my brother, Robin, has the advantage over me in this challenge. {confiding}
Robyn: As long as I never go up against him though, he won't realize that, that's why I am letting him go on ahead without me. {scheming, lighthearted}
Robyn: Maybe if I win against my opponent and he loses, he might be convinced that I am stronger! {hopeful, competitive}
Commander Ferreo: I don't want you to start the duel yet, your opponent has yet to arrive. Let's wait together for him. {calm, controlled}
Commander Ferreo: There you are, Arnol. I was told that you had an outburst during lunch. You will come to know that such things are unacceptable here. {stern, authoritative}
Commander Ferreo: This is who you'll be dueling against Arnol. You two are friends, yes? Well this duel will surely teach both of you a valuable lesson. {measured}
Arnol: Valuable lesson? What is that supposed to mean Commander? Is this a trick? What is the point of me dueling my friend? {confused}
Commander Ferreo: You should know better than to question the orders of your superior, Arnol. Now both of you, into the dueling room. {cold, commanding}
Military Guard: Teach that boy a lesson. {harsh}
Commander Ferreo: Step up, and the duel may begin. If either of you hold back, I will make you start the duel again, as many times as is needed. {intimidating, strict}
Commander Ferreo: Alright, that's enough, the duel is over. {decisive}
Commander Ferreo: The recruit is the winner, clearly. {declaring}
Commander Ferreo: Both of you wait there. I want to discuss something with you two, face to face. {serious, controlled}
Commander Ferreo: You did better than expected Arnol. Yet the result was still what I imagined it would be. {analytical, cold}
Arnol: Then what was the point of this duel, if you knew I would lose! Were you trying to humiliate me further? Haven't you done that enough already?! {furious}
Commander Ferreo: Your arrogance truly has no bounds. How many punishments will I have to give you until you start to take things here seriously? {angry, disappointed}
Commander Ferreo: You're becoming a lost cause, Arnol. Now go, there is something I would like to discuss with the recruit in private. {cold, dismissive}
Commander Ferreo: Your kindness towards him is doing him no favour. Arnol must know what pain is like before he can become stronger, and your friendship is preventing that. {cold}
Commander Ferreo: For both of your sakes, I insist you sever your bond with him. {stern}
Commander Ferreo: Do not take my advice for granted. {resolute}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adder: Well, you actually came... {calm, observant}
Adder: I grew suspicious of you when I heard you get up in the middle of the night yesterday to sneak around. {measured, accusatory}
Adder: And somehow you were able to discover the results of my first duel... The only conclusion I can come to is that you have been spying on Commander Ferreo. {analytical, suspicious}
Adder: For this, you deserve to be exiled, executed, or imprisoned. {threatening, deliberate}
Adder: But... I have been looking to challenge myself, so far the training has been underwhelming. I would like to see what a resistance spy is capable of. {curious, confident, slightly excited}
Adder: If you can best me in a duel, I won't report you to Commander Ferreo. The first person to land 10 hits on the other shall be declared the victor. {controlled}
Adder: As a show of good faith, I will let you land the first hit on me. {confident, composed}
*Manually pasted in the above part so not sure if its in the right place*
Adder: Absurd... Even after everything I have been through, I still am not strong enough. {frustrated, shaken}
Adder: You've won, now leave. {defeated, cold}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kerry: Am I the only one who is unimpressed with these challenges? They don't seem that related to being a soldier. {bored, critical}
Kerry: Eh, oh well. At least they're kind of fun, I'll give them that. I just wish the other recruits took them less seriously. {relaxed, amused}
Lynn: You're on thin ice, Priscilla... You didn't improve at all from yesterday! What will people think if I let a weakling follow me around? {harsh, condescending}
Priscilla: Please Lynn! Just give me a second chance! I promise I will get into the top 10 tomorrow! {panicked, pleading}
Lynn: Make it top 5! And if you fail... I'll never speak to you again! {demanding, threatening}
Priscilla: Top 5!? That's... Eh... Fine, I will make it into the top 5 tomorrow, I promise! {shocked, pressured}
Madelen: Well done, you kept your promise to get a better ranking! I am sure Commander Ferreo and Recruiter Olissy are proud. {supportive, approving}
Yvonne: I used my shame from my first ranking as a driver to try harder on today's challenges. I am happy that I did poorly initially, because now I know I must constantly be trying to improve! {motivated, reflective}
Yvonne: I will set the same promise now, tomorrow my ranking will be higher than it is now! {determined, resolute}
Halbe: I've failed... Now I'll never be able to become a Wings soldier... {devastated, despairing}
Saldin: Don't you think you're being a bit over dramatic? I think you did great, it's not like you're at the bottom of the ranking. {calm, reassuring}
Halbe: Easy for you to say... You're already in the Wings group, you didn't have to work for anything, you were just born good! You'll never know what it's like to be a failure! {bitter, emotional}
Holger: I can't believe we're done with the second day already. Enjoy being a recruit while it lasts, it won't get any easier from here. {casual, warning}
Kyren: You're not worth my time. Do me a favour and buzz off. {dismissive, cold}
Adder: I am willing to put the incident at lunch today aside. You just need to tell me how you or Arnol discovered what happened in my duel on the first day. {controlled, probing}
Adder: I'm not easily fooled, I don't buy the made up story that you two were looking for advice. {suspicious, stern}
Adder: You should take this proposition seriously. I am not the type of person you would want as your enemy. {intimidating, firm}
Robin: It was a fluke, that's the only explanation of how you were able to beat me by one singular point! It means nothing! {defensive, irritated}
Robyn: Right... Keep telling yourself that, but in the back of your mind you know that I beat you. I'll never make you forget that fact! {confident, teasing}
Wilton: They've been at it for a while now. Which one do you think will beat the other tomorrow? {curious, lighthearted}
Matilda: I'm not sure... What do you think will happen if they tie? {thoughtful, uncertain}
Wilton: I hope that doesn't happen, they would probably be up all night arguing about who's better. {amused}
Arnol: Could this day have gone any worse? {exhuasted, overwhelmed}
Arnol: The honourable Commander Ferreo did nothing as Adder beat a fellow recruit to a pulp... {angry}
Arnol: The instructors of the esteemed Fort Tericen recruit program seem to have no interest in actually training us... {frustrated, doubtful}
Arnol: And I am starting to doubt the idea of bringing honour to my house... {uncertain, discouraged}
Arnol: At least I'm not alone though... {resigned}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
???: Who is there? State your name! /$ Niren {alert, suspicious}
???: Go back to bed recruit, you'll need rest for your training tomorrow. /$ Niren {authoritative, dismissive}
???: Do you have them all? /$ Niren {probing}
???: Come back when you do. /$ Niren {resolute}
Niren: You found all of my diary entries, well done. {mildly impressed}
Niren: It's been so long since I've hid them, I was beginning to forget about them ever existing. {nostalgic, distant}
Niren: Don't expect a medal or anything, I can answer some questions that you may have about them though. {casual, detached}
// Why are you here?
Niren: It was Commander Ferreo's final insult. That's the reason I am here, as a guard in Fort Tericen. {bitter, resigned}
Niren: After I graduated from the recruit program, my average rankings were seen as too low to join a field Captain or Commander's service. {matter of fact, regretful}
Niren: So Ferreo himself stepped up and took me in, stationing me here to waste away. I think it's some form of punishment... {resentful, reflective}
Niren: I hope you're not expecting a medal for finding my diary entries. I can answer some questions that you may have about them though. {indifferent}
// Why did you hide your diary entries around the barracks?
Niren: I'm not sure to be quite honest. Maybe I was hoping for a sly recruit like yourself to find them, and not make the same mistakes I did. {uncertain}
Niren: It may have just been out of boredom though. I can't remember what thoughts were going through my head back when I hid them, after I became a soldier. {distant}
Niren: Deep down... Maybe I wanted Commander Ferreo to find those notes. I wonder what he would have thought after reading them... {thoughtful, uneasy}
// Did you ever end up discovering Commander Ferreo's secret?
Niren: I had a feeling you'd ask me that. And surprisingly, yes, I did discover the truth about Commander Ferreo's success. There is no secret. He did it all through a fierce determination to become greater. {serious}
Niren: When Commander Ferreo was young, he had nothing, he was a vagabond in Hyloch. Not living, just, surviving. {somber}
Niren: Sometimes the Fruman Military would come to visit, and everyone in the town gathered together to see them. Ferreo saw how everyone loved and praised them for their valiance. {nostalgic}
Niren: He desperately wanted to be praised and loved like that too. So he made it his goal to reach that position, overcoming the countless obstacles in his way. {reflecting}
Niren: Through sheer strength and expertise, he quickly became a Wings Commander, breaking military records in the process. {explaining}
Niren: There were rumours that he would push further and attempt to become a Sovereign, even though all the positions were full at the time... {speculative}
Niren: He had finally reached the level of fame and admiration that he had set out for. But I imagine the potential for even greater heights tormented him. {reflecting, somber}
Niren: Not many know this, but just before he was given his current position, Commander Ferreo had a meeting with Sovereign Majin and The Queen. {serious}
Niren: We can only speculate at what they discussed, but quickly after said meeting, Majin appointed Commander Ferreo as head of Fort Tericen. My guess is that he was punished for his ambition... {hushed, uneasy}
// I should be heading back to bed now.
Niren: Good luck on your training recruit. I recommend you take it more seriously than I did. {warning}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commander Ferreo: We've found ourselves in a terribly difficult situation, Strumon... {tense, concerned}
Commander Ferreo: We have a spy amongst our recruits and know who they are, yet that messenger expects us to not do anything about it until Sovereign Majin gets here!? {frustrated, restrained}
Recruiter Strumon: I think it is important to be cautious here Commander, if this spy is as powerful as the messenger implied... This could spell the end for all of us... {anxious, careful}
Commander Ferreo: Yes, you're probably right. Nevertheless, once Sovereign Majin arrives and sees that I let a spy into the recruit program... I fear that all that I have worked for will be lost... {worried}
Commander Ferreo: I will not give up so easily, nor will I do nothing while we wait for Sovereign Majin to arrive... {determined, firm}
Commander Ferreo: I want Effal to be exiled to Wynn immediately for treason. He let the spy in, and must be punished for that. Find a guard to replace his position as Recruiter, anyone would be more competent than him. {cold, decisive}
Recruiter Strumon: Relay this to the other guards and recruiters. Effal should be out of Fruma by tomorrow! {authoritative}
Recruiter Strumon: Now, Commander, there is another issue I would like to bring up with you, the reason why I came to your office this late into the night in the first place. {serious, cautious}
Recruiter Strumon: Your plan yesterday went along perfectly. I checked in with the doctor and he told me Katze will need to be sent home. {calm}
Commander Ferreo: Excellent, tomorrow Adder will duel against Arnol. His family name can no longer make up for his weakness! {sharp}
Recruiter Strumon: Commander... Is this really the best option? The spy seems to have grown a liking towards Arnol. I fear doing this could trigger a retaliation from them... {hesitant, worried}
Commander Ferreo: Does upsetting a single cursed one really frighten you that much, Strumon? Besides, I expect Sovereign Majin will have arrived by then, your concerns are unfounded. {dismissive, confident}
Military Guard: Commander, Recruiter, there is an urgent matter that requires attending to. Please, follow me! {urgent, alarmed}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Arnol: Ugh... {groggy, disoriented}
Arnol: What is this about? Why are you waking me up so early in the morning? {confused, irritated}
Arnol: What!? I'd stand no chance against Adder! He might even end up killing me if I face him! I guess I should have expected Commander Ferreo would do something like this though... {panicked, anxious}
Arnol: If you're telling me this now, you must have some idea on how to help me with this mess. What is your plan? {urgent, hopeful}
// We must escape!
Arnol: Hmmm... Ok, I trust you. Let's go before anyone wakes up. {determined, cautious}
// Follow me.
Arnol: Hmmm... Ok, I'll go with you. {resigned, trusting}
Arnol: We're leaving through the main entrance? What if a guard spots us? {nervous, uncertain}
// We can try to find a way around them.
Arnol: Alright, I'll try to stay close. {careful, focused}
// I'll deal with them if they spot us.
Arnol: Uhm... Ok... {uneasy, hesitant}
Arnol: Weird... There seems to be no guards on duty... {suspicious, alert}
Arnol: That's the wrong way. {concerned}
Arnol: Where did this come from!? {startled, alarmed}
Arnol: Oh... It's him... {realizing, fearful}
Commander Ferreo: Where are you off to? I don't remember dismissing either of you. {cold, authoritative}
Commander Ferreo: I would have thought that by now you'd both know insubordination isn't tolerated here. Neither is treason... {intimidating, stern}
Commander Ferreo: Does Arnol know you're a spy? Imagine what his family would think, if they found out he's conspiring with the resistance. {manipulative, calculating}
Arnol: ... {silent, stunned}
Commander Ferreo: I'll let them deal with him. But you... the responsibility of prosecuting you has been lended to me. {threatening}
Commander Ferreo: I've never lost a duel, don't fool yourself into thinking I'd let you change that! {arrogant, confident}
Commander Ferreo: I'll make you beg for mercy! {confident}
Commander Ferreo: I won't die here! Not to the likes of you! {determined}
Commander Ferreo: Goodbye, traitor! {final}
Arnol: That's enough Commander, you're clearly outmatched. {firm, resolute}
Arnol: Thank you... For looking out for me after everything, even though you had no reason to... {grateful}
Arnol: I've spent my whole life drifting, aimless... But now I know what my purpose is, thanks to you... {reflecting, inspired}
Arnol: My purpose is to make sure that tyrants like Commander Ferreo meet their just end. It seems like this may be your goal as well. {determined, serious}
Arnol: I must go out on my own now, I hope that one day we meet again. I promise you I'll be stronger by then! {hopeful, resolute}
Arnol: I was raised to believe that the cursed ones were wicked, yet you've been nothing but helpful. Seems like that was just another lie... {conflicted, thoughtful}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Arnol: I've been looking forward to seeing you again, soldier. {warm}
Arnol: It feels like it's been ages since we last spoke. As you can probably guess, a lot has changed for me since then. {reflecting}
// How did you get here?
Arnol: After we took out Commander Ferreo, there was nowhere for me to go, but I knew I needed to leave the Highlands and head somewhere I wouldn't be recognized. {serious, recollecting}
Arnol: I couldn't risk taking the train, so sneaking into the Mistwoods at night was my only option. I had no idea what could be waiting for me there, but I had to go quickly, before they would start looking for me. {tense, cautious}
Arnol: I took the easternmost exit out of the Highlands, and by some miracle, snuck through to the Mistwoods after quietly taking out a guard. {recounting}
Arnol: From there, I blindly stumbled across the region, terrified of what would find me. I was eventually knocked out by a Canopy scout, who took me into their hideout to be questioned. {explaining}
Arnol: I told them the truth, about who I was, where I came from, and what I had done... They didn't believe me until I described you, and what you had done for me. {explaining}
Arnol: Even after we split ways, you were still there to look out for me! {grateful, moved}
Arnol: Of course, they didn't trust me immediately, I still had to prove myself. I've learned more here than I would have ever had at Fort Tericen. {certain}
Arnol: And now, I can call myself a resistance member, same as you. I've thought a lot about my goals since we were recruits. I want Fruma to be rid of corruption, like what we saw with Commander Ferreo. {determined}
Arnol: The resistance is the best chance we have at achieving this goal, I'm sure you've realised this too. I am ready to risk my life fighting for a better future for Fruma! {resolved}
// I'm glad you're ok.
Arnol: I could be saying the same thing, but the people here have told me that you can handle yourself just fine. {relieved}
Arnol: I must admit, my time with the resistance has been very difficult. But I can finally say I am fighting for a cause I truly believe in. {honest}
Arnol: Deep down in my heart, I've always known I could never live up to the expectations my family had for me. Here, I no longer have to worry about that. {liberated}
Arnol: I was so alone, soldier, I truly can't thank you enough for being there for me... {grateful}
// I'm sorry for lying to you.
Arnol: You have nothing to be sorry for, I completely understand why you couldn't tell me the truth. {understanding}
Arnol: What matters the most is that you helped me escape Fort Tericen when you found out that I was in danger. {sincere}
Arnol: This is it, we stand at the precipice of change... {hopeful}
Arnol: With your help, the resistance can create a better future for Fruma, and put an end to this madness! {determined}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Effal: Are you a recruit as well? You certainly look strong. I imagine you must have a lot of experience. {friendly}
Effal: I am a bit newer to this than you, but I may still be able to offer you some insights if you're curious. {cheerful, helpful}
// How did you get here?
Effal: Well... A carriage rode me halfway to Ragni, then it broke down and I had to walk the rest of the way. When I finally arrived the King himself was there to greet me and made me a recruit. {recounting/confused, upbeat}
Effal: I can't seem to remember anything before that though... It probably wasn't too important, what's important is my new job as a recruit! {carefree, oblivious}
Effal: I wonder if the King will give me a promotion soon... {hopeful}
// Do you remember me?
Effal: No... I can't say I have ever seen you before... Are you a fan or something? {curious, cheerful}
Effal: I didn't imagine having fans already but that's great! I'm already on the path of becoming the most famous person in Wynn! {excited, naive}
// Why are you waiting here?
Effal: Waiting? I'm not waiting for anything! I'm just resting... That's all! {defensive, flustered}
Effal: It's tiring doing so much work out there. Plus I need to give the other recruits and guards a chance to prove themselves, I shouldn't hog all of the glory! {casual}
// Be careful out there.
Effal: You don't need to worry about me, I'll be fine out there. Just because you look stronger doesn't mean I'm weak! {confident}
Effal: You're the one who should be worried... Worried about me surpassing you of course! {playful, competitive}
Effal: But hey, we're on the same side, so let's both keep fighting out there! For the King! {enthusiastic, loyal}
