"I suppose it does. That assumes the cooperation can happen, though, and Miss Honor here doesn't seem to like me or my fighting style much."
"You make it sound poetic when you put it like that. I just want the people I hit with my axe to die. It is a good way to get the rest to sit down and shut up, though."
"They fall over. Their lifeblood spills on their clothes, their skin, the ground. Your sword. It mixes with their sweat and the dirt. If you cut their throat, they start to choke on it. Their body shuts down. Their bowels release. They'll probably be alive for a few seconds afterward, too. "I know full well about a knight's duty, Artair. Enough for my purposes, at least. Tell me: what happens after that final cut?"
"I wouldn't chop you in half without a decent reason, Almen. The bandits should know to keep their heads down and attached to their bodies by now, too." She turns to Artair with a frown."I don't need criticism from someone who hasn't figured out that there's no such thing as clean killing. Worry about yourself."
"Yeah. Need an axe that'll split a man in two more reliably. What about it?"
"W-well, then it is decided. I shall become the Dark Harem Queen of Generia, and grind down the lands until such a time as I am satisfied with the worthiness and prowess of the individuals around me."I-I had not, no."

"If I hear a peep out of any of you about that, I'll beat you unconscious with that case." She held the Emblem out for anyone who wanted to take it, and if nobody did so, she would return it to its home.
"Here goes nothing.""Give it here. I'll try not to bleed on it too much." She thrust her axe through a loop on her belt before reaching out toward Lulu.
