Heroes of Light and Shadow Base: Sirius and Belf
Base conversations
Sirius and Belf 1
Belf:
Sir Sirius! I wonder if you could spare a moment?
Sirius:
Sir Belf... What business do you have with me?
Belf:
Your mask... I'd like to see the face behind it.
Sirius:
...!
Belf:
I understand that you have your reasons for hiding your indentity.
But... Still, I'd like to ask this of you.
Sirius:
...And if I say no?
Belf:
Then please tell me why. I was once a Sable Knight of Grust. I was
one of the enemy then. Even so, Prince Marth has accepted me into
his army. The prince looks beyond trivialties such as nationality...
There should be no need to disguise yourself, I would think.
Sirius:
Sir Belf, I believe you've mistaken me for another. Please leave me
be.
Belf:
General!
Sirius:
You are mistaken. I am no general. I am Sirius... Merely Sirius.
Sirius and Belf 2
Belf:
That was a magnificent battle, Sir Sirius.
Sirius:
Sir Belf... I recall asking you to leave me be.
Belf:
It matters not if you wear a mask. I can tell from your fighting
style. That's Grustian spear technique.
Sirius:
It seems that our misunderstanding still stands. 'Tis a pity.
Belf:
I understand. If you are so strongly intent on hiding yourself, I
won't force you. But... At least tell me. Why? Why go so far to hide
it?
Sirius:
......
Belf:
General!
Sirius:
For argument's sake, if I were in fact the Grustian general you
claim I am, Sir Belf... What do you think would result from my
revealing myself? A resistance would rise, and I would be their
symbol. I would provide the impetus needed to free Grust. I hardly
think now is the time for further Grustian blood to be spilt.
Belf:
...!
Sirius:
Now, if you'll excuse me.
Belf:
......
Sirius and Belf 3
Belf:
Sir Sirius. I'd like to apologize for my rudeness. I... seem to have
made a grave error.
Sirius:
...What matters is that you understand. Very well, I shall take my
leave.
Belf:
Please wait. Would you... mind keeping me company...? I want to
speak with you. About the past, I mean.
Sirius:
......
Belf:
The general who led the Grustian Sable Order, which I was a member
of, was a wonderful person. He used to tell us this: A knight's spear is not for himself. It exists to protect the weak.
I've come thus far holding his words to my heart. But... even though
I chose this path, I wonder if I made the right choice... Sir
Sirius, if the general were alive, do you think he'd have anything
to say to me?
Sirius:
Sir Belf... I am proud to have you as my subordinate. I want you to
keep protecting the people, in my stead, for I've already departed
from Archanea...
Belf:
...!
Sirius:
I... I would imagine he would say something along those lines.
Belf:
...Thank you... so much!
