[k] @Percival They probably needed more humans[sr]to fight against the mors. [k] @Percival They treated us all very well. [k] @Percival They didn't just provide us with food, clothing, and shelter. They also built a school for us to attend. [k] @Percival I remember how much that surprised me, since I'd always heard that any humans who leave a ranch would never be free. [k] @Percival But that's why I've never had any animosity toward faeries. [k] @Percival It's thanks to them that I grew up big and strong, and eventually got this spear. [k] [charaFace A 4] @Percival However... [k] @Percival I still know very little about the faerie who took me in. [k] [charaFace A 10] @Percival That's probably because they raised a lot of human children, not just me. [k] @Percival Around the time I became a full-fledged soldier... [k] @Percival ...I heard that the faerie who had taken us all in from the ranch passed away. [k] @Percival Shortly afterwards, the rearing house where our school had been was shut down, and I put Salisbury behind me. [k] [charaFace A 0] @Percival After that, I dedicated myself to combat training until I took on an escort job in a small forest village. [k] @Percival I was told I should enter the next joust in Camelot, and even got a letter of recommendation. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 14] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Gareth Ooh, I heard about that! That was the Robin Redbreast tournament they held five years ago! [k] [charaFace B 22] @Gareth So you were the human knight who made it all the way to the finals!? That's amazing! [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 1] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Percival Yes, I was quite lucky to make it to the end, though I had a very poor showing in the finals. [k] [charaFace A 0] @Percival Still, I'm glad I was able to speak with Queen Morgan directly. It gave me the resolve I needed to make up my mind. [k] [charaFace A 14] @Percival Talking to her made it clear that she sees humans and faeries both as no more than tools. [k] @Percival She's perfectly satisfied with the current state of Britain, and has no intention of changing it. [k] @Percival Once I saw that for myself, I ultimately decided to make an organization that would help the Child of Prophecy once she appeared. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 23] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Da Vinci Huh, no kidding. So this whole rebel army thing was originally your idea. [k] @Da Vinci Was it Oberon who came up with the idea of making it into the Round Table Army then? [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 7] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Percival Yes, it was. My comrades and I were protecting a merchant caravan from mors attacks one day when Lord Oberon came up to me and said: [k] @Percival “You'll never get anywhere like that, Percival. If you keep this up, your White Light will rust.” [k] @Percival From then on, he began managing us himself, and before I knew it, our rebel army had become the Round Table Army.

So what's this “White Light” of yours, anyway? [k] @Senji Muramasa You're only human, so if you're defeating faeries with it, it must be a pretty impressive technique. [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 11] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Percival Oh, it's not a technique. White Light is my spear here. [k] @Percival It's the Spear of Selection, one of Aesc's weapons. [k] @Percival The faerie who took me in gave it to me. [k] @Percival Apparently, it's a holy spear that only responds to one without sin, and no faerie can use it. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 0] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Habetrot ...

[charaFace F 11] @Altria I'm not sure, but I think they're at least a little different. I mean, one's a spear, and one's a staff. [k] @Altria I do sense something similar about them, but the spear feels, well...empty? [k] @Altria I can tell it's an amazing weapon, but it also seems like it's not...chosen anymore. [k] [charaFadeout F 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Percival I'd agree with that.[sr]I sense the same thing whenever I hold it. [k] [charaFace A 4] @Percival It feels like a piercing wave of regret, and profound grief over a past failure. [k] @Percival The spear's inner lamentations well up every time I swing it, and they leave behind trails of magic light like tears. [k] [charaFace A 9] @Percival That's why it came to be known as the White Light. [k] @Percival This spear is no longer meant for saving faeries.[sr]Now, it only exists to kill them. [k] @Percival That's not how it was originally supposed to be used...but that also means it's the only weapon out there able to stand up to the Tam Lin. [k] [charaFace A 11] @Percival But if it is true that only one without sin can wield it, I expect there'll come a time I won't be able to wield it. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 12] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Gareth That's not true, Percival! You're a wonderful person! [k] @Gareth You protect the weak, and you never act only out of self-interest! You're the ideal knight! You could never be seen as a sinner! [k] @Gareth If I tried to use that spear, I'd be rejected before I could even touch it for the sin of being too weak! [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 8] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Percival Don't be silly, Gareth. You know there's no such sin.

It was a difficult march, but we made it in time. [k] @Faerie Officer Auralia Shall we deploy the troops once we cross the next hill? [k] [charaFadeout G 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 9] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Percival Please do. I'm putting Landon in charge of the company while I'm gone. I'd like you and him to remain on standby for one hour. [k] @Percival The Child of Prophecy and I will go on ahead and make our way into Norwich using the route through the sewage system the Count opened for us. [k] @Percival Once we're inside Norwich, we'll rendezvous with the anti-Spriggan faction. [k] @Percival After that, we'll start a riot in the city, and take advantage of the confusion to open the main gate from the inside. [k] @Percival Once it's open, I want your troops to neutralize the queen's soldiers on the ramparts. [k] @Percival In the meantime, we'll take Landon's troops and split up to take out the queen's soldiers occupying Norwich. [k] @Percival Once the enemy forces have been neutralized, we'll surround the vault castle.

[k] [charaFace A 11] @Percival That goes for you too, Auralia. I'm sorry to ask so much of you again. [k] [charaFace G 1] @Faerie Officer Auralia That's okay. I'm used to it. Child of Prophecy, please look after Percival.

From here on, we'll be on our own. [k] @Percival Our goal is to infiltrate Norwich while it's still dark and create a distraction. [k] @Percival Please make sure you're thoroughly prepared,[sr][%1].
