[charaFace D 0]

Well, to be blunt... Because you seem the most normal out of anyone here.
[k]

＠Fergus
After all, you're scared of both combat and dying, as most people would be.
[k]

＠Fergus
All of the other women here seem a bit...extreme, for lack of a better word.

＠Fergus
So I wanted to hear from one with more down-to-earth sensibilities.
[k]

[charaFace D 1]

Of course, I'm well aware that there's no point to this question.

[k]

[charaFace E 0]
＠Scheherazade
...Oh, yes, my apologies. I'm afraid I don't have an especially interesting answer, but...
[k]

＠Scheherazade
...I would like to live in a nation without any danger. After all, in a place fraught with danger, it is possible I may lose my life.
[k]

[charaFace D 4]

You really are afraid of dying, aren't you.
[k]

[charaFace E 4]
＠Scheherazade
...Isn't everyone...?
[k]

[charaFace D 0]

Yes... I suppose they are. Regardless, a Celtic warrior does not fear death. You see[line 2]
[k]

[charaFace E 4]
＠Scheherazade
...
[k]

[charaFace D 0]
＠Fergus
Oh, sorry. I didn't mean to make small of your opinion. Maybe we should not talk about our views on the matter of life and death.
[k]

＠Fergus
It's not that we WANT to die, after all.[sr]I can certainly understand your position in that sense.
[k]

＠Fergus
Still...a nation without danger is easy to talk about, but probably very hard to create. The closest example I can think of is[line 2]
[k]

[charaFace E 0]
＠Scheherazade
...The Land of the Young?
[k]

[charaFace D 1]
＠Fergus
That's impressive. I should have expected as much from you. The Land of the Young, or Tír na nÓg, is a Celtic myth.
[k]

＠Fergus
It is a land of eternity, where gods and fairies walk.[sr]It is a peaceful and joyous utopia, where there is always enough delicious fruit for everyone to eat.
[k]

[charaFace E 6]
＠Scheherazade
Yet both there and here, the threat of death is still present.
[k]

＠Scheherazade
Not gods who dwell underground, nor the humans in their peach-filled paradise, can escape it.

[charaFace D 0]

I may not be able to help you live in a nation without the threat of death, but I can offer a replacement.

From now on, I won't just use my sword to protect[sr][%1].

I'll also use it to keep you safe from the threat of death. On that, you have my word.

I am young, inexperienced, and cannot draw my sword against a woman, but I should be better than nothing.
