In fact, between saving Norwich and repelling the calamity, you might have won a little TOO much. [k] @Count Peperon Now that the faeries of Norwich are all completely on the Child of Prophecy's side, the queen's not going to just sit and do nothing. [k] [charaFadeout R 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 0] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Senji Muramasa So she's gonna start sending her army after us, huh.

[k] @Count Peperon If you're not careful, you could unwittingly end up inciting these faeries further down the path of rebellion. [k] @Count Peperon The smartest course of action would be to wait until nighttime and sneak out of Norwich quietly. Assuming you have somewhere else to go, of course. [k] ?1:Hmm...

[charaFadeout R 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 0] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Oberon No, I don't think that's a good idea. Regardless of how we pulled it off, we succeeded at repelling the calamity and saving Norwich. [k] @Oberon We can't let the opportunities this victory provides us go to waste. [k] [charaFace C 4] @Oberon Really, it's a miracle we even have them[line 2]opportunities, I mean. I didn't mention this before because it would've been demotivating, but... [k] @Oberon The prophecy originally not only said that the calamity would be banished, but that Norwich would be destroyed.

[k] @Spriggan ...I have no problem with you heading up there and ringing it yourselves. [k] @Spriggan If the matter ever comes up, we can just say that I was careless in assigning too light a security detail. [k] @Spriggan If it ever came up, and you confirmed that version of events, I'd be very appreciative. [k] [charaFadeout K 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 15] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Senji Muramasa You heard the man. He must be downright terrified of his citizens revolting on him. [k] @Senji Muramasa Come on, Altria. Let's go ring that bell and be done with this place. [k] @Senji Muramasa ...Altria? [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 27] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Altria ...I'm sorry. I can't do it. [k] @Altria Ringing Norwich's bell would mean declaring war on Queen Morgan. [k] @Altria ...And I'm just not ready to do that yet. [k] @Altria Besides...I'm not the one who saved Norwich. Mash is. [k] @Altria So it's not as though the people of Norwich have really accepted me. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk K] [charaFace K 1] [charaFadein K 0.1 1] @Spriggan Oho. I see, I see. [k] @Spriggan Waiting for just the right time, hm? I can certainly respect that. [k] @Spriggan You're not nearly as naive as you appear... Indeed, ringing the bell here and now would not be the most moral choice. [k] @Spriggan If you wish to rally more soldiers to your cause, and to be more deliberate with your bloodshed, there are other steps you'll need to take first. [k] [charaFadeout K 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 17] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Senji Muramasa Yeah? Like what? [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk K] [charaFace K 1] [charaFadein K 0.1 1] @Spriggan What I'm trying to say is, there are still many faeries who are loyal to the queen. [k] @Spriggan After all, she has single-handedly protected Britain from the mors for the past two thousand years. [k] @Spriggan However oppressive her rule may be, her accomplishments speak for themselves. [k] @Spriggan So it wouldn't be right to declare warn on her only because the prophecy says you will. [k] @Spriggan First, you need to prove that yours is the side of justice and integrity. [k] @Spriggan If you can't do that... [k] @Spriggan It would make the Child of Prophecy no less a barbaric invader than the Saxons.

[k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk K] [charaFace K 0] [charaFadein K 0.1 1] @Spriggan That's right. If you were to write such a letter, I would be happy to deliver it to Her Majesty myself... [k] [charaFace K 1] @Spriggan But fortunately, there's also no need for one just yet. As it happens, I just spoke with the queen. She said: [k] @Spriggan "In recognition of the Child of Prophecy and the foreign visitor's defense of Norwich, notwithstanding the role of luck in your success, I am willing to grant them an audience." [k] @Spriggan "I shall treat them as guests who have accomplished a rare and unusual feat. Should they wish to speak on any particular subject, I will hear them on this occasion." [k] ?1:...! ?2:(So the queen's outright telling us to come see her!?) ?! [charaFadeout K 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 2] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Oberon Oh really? Hey, why don't we just jump straight into the pit and save her the trouble of killing us! [k] @Oberon Does Morgan really think we'd fall for such a blatantly obvious trap!? [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk K] [charaFace K 0] [charaFadein K 0.1 1] @Spriggan I assure you, this is no trap. Ruthless though she is, the queen does believe in the importance of decorum. [k] @Spriggan If she says she is prepared to welcome you as guests, you can trust that no harm will come to you. [k] @Spriggan As our supreme monarch, her every word carries a great deal of weight. [k] @Spriggan If it didn't, she could never have united all six clans under her rule. [k] [charaFadeout K 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 15] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Senji Muramasa ...Now I see. We can't start a war against her without declaring it first... [k] @Senji Muramasa ...and the queen can't kill the Child of Prophecy without a damn good reason. [k] @Senji Muramasa Especially now that she's gone and saved Norwich. [k] @Senji Muramasa Politically speaking, she's gotta prove the justice of her rule just as we gotta prove the opposite. [k] [charaFace D 16] @Senji Muramasa Which means it all comes down to what each side has to say. Sounds like it's worth taking her up on this invitation. [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 24] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Da Vinci I agree with Muramasa. Besides, I really want to know more about the queen herself. [k] @Da Vinci So far, all we really know about Morgan is her name. [k] @Da Vinci I'd like to speak with her directly so I can find out what she's thinking, and what it is she really wants. [k] @Da Vinci That said, if we're going, we'll of course need assurance that we'll be able to leave safely, too. [k] @Da Vinci So she'll need to promise that our truce will remain in place for a while even if the meeting doesn't go all that well. [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk K] [charaFace K 0] [charaFadein K 0.1 1] @Spriggan Naturally. In fact, she's already promised as much. [k] @Spriggan It's all in this letter, which my fellow clan heads have also received copies of. [k] [charaFadeout K 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 8] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Altria Hmm... What do you think, [%1]? [k] ?1:If our safety's guaranteed, we should definitely[csr]go give her a piece of our mind. ?! [charaFace A 22] @Altria Huh? Why do you sound like you're already set to pick a fight!? [k] ?1:Think about it. She wouldn't do this if she thought[csr]you were actually a threat. ?! [charaFace A 3] @Altria Oh... So that's why you're so upset... [k] [charaFace A 5] @Altria ...Okay. Let's do it. Honestly, I'm pretty pissed off, too. [k] @Altria What the hell does she mean, "notwithstanding the role of luck in your success"? [k] @Altria There was no luck involved! Mash and I both worked super hard to save this town! [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 1] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Oberon I see. Okay, if you're all that sure about this, maybe accepting this invitation IS the right move. [k] @Oberon Plus, Altria's decision not to ring the bell at this point also makes more sense to me this way. [k] @Oberon If she had rung the bell, it would have officially made the queen and the Child of Prophecy political enemies... [k] @Oberon ...and then, this invitation would be moot. Isn't that right, Spriggan? [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk K] [charaFace K 0] [charaFadein K 0.1 1] @Spriggan I'm afraid you'll have to draw your own conclusions there.

[k] @Spriggan Very well then, I'll send a messenger to the Count's house tomorrow. They'll take you to meet with the queen's troops, who will be waiting for you outside the city. [k] [charaFadeout K 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Altria ...So the queen's own troops are going to escort us to Camelot, huh.
