Kyle

Hello, Forde.▼

Forde

Hmm?
Oh, Kyle! How have you been?▼

Kyle

What are you doing out here?
Are you-- Are you painting?▼

Forde

No! I-- Well, yes. Actually, I'm
not so much painting as sketching.▼
I use this piece of charcoal to
draw and shade, like this.▼

Kyle

You know we're in the middle
of a battle, don't you?▼
What if someone attacks while
you're distracted?▼

Forde

Calm down, calm down.▼
I just like to keep a record of
our battles with these pictures.▼

Kyle

You're just rationalizing!▼
You're a cavalier--it's time
to start acting like one.▼

Forde

Fine, fine. I'll stop.▼
As you command, Sir Kyle, commander
of the Knights of Renais.▼

Kyle

...Oh, brother. Do you have to
make everything so difficult?▼

Forde

If you don't want the hassle,
stop telling me what to do!▼

Kyle

Then stop fooling around on the
battlefield.▼
Seriously, wasting my time on an
idiot like you is just stupid.▼

Forde

Huh?
Did you say something?▼

Kyle

Nothing!▼
If you have so much time to waste
drawing, let's have a quick spar.▼

Forde

What! You want to spar? Now?▼

Kyle

Yeah, that's right. I don't waste time.▼
I take care of my weapons, my horse,
and myself.▼
And not just that--I also make sure our
morale is good and our men are safe.▼

Forde

You're thorough, aren't you?▼

Kyle

I'm a knight. It's my duty.▼

Forde

You really need to take
yourself less seriously.▼

Kyle

And you need to take your
duty MORE seriously.▼

Support level B

Forde

Yaaaaaaawn...▼
Oh, why am I so sleepy?▼

Kyle

Forde! Are you falling asleep
on the battlefield!?▼
What is wrong with you, man!?▼

Forde

What are you so fired up about?
You're really ruining my nap.▼

Kyle

You have no sense of self-preservation,
do you? What is wrong with you?▼
You lack even the common sense of
an infant, you know that?▼

Forde

Oh, you're one to talk.▼
When you were a baby, you were planning
out strategies to take over the nursery.▼
You were stuck up then, and you're stuck
up now. And STILL the ladies liked you!▼

Kyle

You leave them out of this!
Women have nothing to do with it.▼

Forde

They don't? Oh, come on!▼
Isn't it important to have an heir to
carry your standard when you're gone?▼
Take your sister, Mia--she married
into a nice Frelian family, didn't she?▼
I'm just curious who would ever settle
for such an uptight knight as you.▼
You ever think about that? You think
you might meet her in this war?▼

Kyle

That's not what I'm here for!▼

Forde

Ha ha ha ha. Of course not. But I
bet you're still a ladies' man, huh?▼
I know you--you're a perfect gentlemen,
always nice to the ladies.▼
I remember when you were little, you
were always the first to help when▼
you saw a little girl crying. You
would go running up to lend a hand.▼
I still remember how impressed I was
that you would do that. It was cool.▼

Kyle

I just could never turn my back
on someone in need.▼
It is what's expected of a knight.▼

Forde

Yeah, but you weren't a knight yet!▼

Kyle

Well, it's...expected of someone
who aspires to be a knight, too!▼

Forde

You've got an answer for everything!▼
But, I have to admit, you've also
got my respect. You're a good guy.▼

Kyle

......▼

Forde

Wow! Now you're embarrassed.▼

Kyle

Forde!▼

Support level A

Kyle

Whew...▼

Forde

What's wrong, Kyle? You're the
one who looks tired this time.▼

Kyle

Oh, Forde. It's you. I was just
lost in thought for a moment.▼
I figured that I could use a
little breathing room.▼
I guess that's why you paint
your landscapes, isn't it?▼

Forde

That's right. You see it now?▼
Everyone needs a little space to
think, even on the battlefield.▼

Kyle

Well, I wouldn't go so far as to
approve of painting during a battle.▼
What if the younger soldiers started
to copy your example?▼
However, I see your point. Everyone
needs a way to clear one's head.▼
So... How long have you been
doing those drawings, anyway?▼

Forde

......▼

Kyle

What's the matter? Forgotten
when you started?▼

Forde

...▼
I started drawing and painting
when my mother died.▼

Kyle

Really?▼

Forde

When I was young, I won a tournament
for training swordsmen...▼

Kyle

I remember that.
I took second place.▼

Forde

She seemed far more pleased at a picture
I'd drawn of her than at my victory.▼
She kept that picture near her always,
and she looked at it often.▼
She rejoiced more in my skill with the
brush than in my skill with the sword.▼
I never understood why... Not until
recently, at any rate.▼

Kyle

Your mother was very kind.
I remember that about her.▼
I'm sorry that she fell ill
while you were so young.▼

Forde

I feel lucky--I have my memories
of her, after all.▼
Franz, though... He was too little
to talk or even walk.▼
That's why I kept that picture of
her hanging in our home.▼

Kyle

So that's the story behind that
picture in your house...▼
I didn't realize you drew it.▼
I remember watching you practice
swordplay when we were little.▼
I wanted to be like you, and I was
irritated that I didn't practice more.▼
I got so upset with myself when I lost
the tournament to you.▼
That's why I work so hard to keep
practicing and improving my skills.▼

Forde

...I didn't know...▼

Kyle

......▼

Forde

Oh, man. It's not like me to get
this introspective.▼
What is it about you that makes me
talk so much?▼
Come on, let's go.▼

Kyle

Heh. All right.▼
Oh, and, Forde...▼

Forde

What?▼

Kyle

When this whole war is over,
teach me how to paint.▼

Forde

Yeah, all right. Fine. But we both
have to get out of here alive first.▼

Kyle

It's a deal.▼
