The Healer Wants The Dragon's Head
The mission
The forest seemed quieter than usual as the two went further inside to get some privacy
Great Duchess Amalia
Althea...
Althea
*Turning her head*
I don't want to hear that I can't make it from you too, Great Duchess
Great Duchess Amalia
*She sighs heavily*
It's not that
Great Duchess Amalia
But I need you to be fully aware of the danger you're putting yourself into
Althea
Why should the fact that I can heal myself and others be a problem?
Great Duchess Amalia
Because it's the only thing you have other than your sword, Althea!
Great Duchess Amalia
Every knight, every single one has a damage dealing type of magic
Great Duchess Amalia
Do you know why?
Althea
*She looks down at the underwood, the grass shiny from the past rain*
Great Duchess Amalia
Because if a warrior only has its weapon to deal damage, what happens if they lose it?
Great Duchess Amalia
What if it breaks?
Great Duchess Amalia
At least they'll have their magic... But you? You would be dead meat
Althea
*She shakes her head quickly*
Quite the contrary
Great Duchess Amalia
You can't heal yourself from death, Althea!
Althea
*She flinches for a moment and then sigh*
I know, Great Duchess. This is something I still want to do even if it means I'll die. I was born to fight, I feel it deep inside my soul
Great Duchess Amalia
*She takes a deep breath*
Oh, my dear... There is so much more to life than fighting
Great Duchess Amalia
I hope you will understand that, one day. Before you lose your life in a meaningless way
Great Duchess Amalia
*About to leave*
Althea
*Turn suddenly to her*
Althea
What about you, Duchess?
Great Duchess Amalia
I already lost everything
Great Duchess Amalia
*Leave to get to the others and check on them*
After some hours of training everyone was exhausted
Great Duchess Amalia
*Shouting loudly to get their attention*
Everyone, listen to me!
Great Duchess Amalia
I just got an interesting piece of information
Great Duchess Amalia
A private wants us to bring him a dragon head!
Everyone started murmuring
Markus
Hah! That's crap, everyone knows they got extinct!
Althea
*Thinking*
"That's just an official lie to stop people die trying, you idiot. But I shouldn't tell him"
Great Duchess Amalia
Silence! Dragons are still very much alive. Most of them lurks in dark caves, you shouldn't take this as a joke
Great Duchess Amalia
Also...
Great Duchess Amalia
Whoever accomplish this mission...
Great Duchess Amalia
Will officially become a real knight!
Althea
*Lifting her gaze*
...Really?!
Wild Author
Mmh. Althea is definitely not going to try that. Nope. Definitely not.
