Gregor couldn't help but chuckle at that.: "I'm afraid I've been secluded too long to know if a war is afoot. Say, Gregor, if you trip over a log and get lost around here again, just shout my name into the Kesselring Forest. It's nice to have someone around even though the accommodations are not... fortress-quality."
: "I may have to take you up on that someday!
: "But for now, I believe the battle is still raging just down the road. Shall we go help them out?"
Charlotte giggles a little as Gregor mentions tripping over a log.Charlotte's giggles made Gregor wish that he had died after all, if only to avoid the shame.: "I was driven out of my hometown long ago, though, by what I can only assume was a political assault. The whole town was burnt to the ground by assailants on horseback. I'd always trained for that day, but I didn't think it would ever come. Say, is that not the kind of thing you investigate? I am unclear on your job duties."
: "Well, I haven't been a soldier very long. I mean, my father and brothers have been, and they trained me to follow the family tradition...anyway, I was only transferred out to Kesselring Fortress a little over a month ago. Our everyday job is to eliminate or disperse bandit gangs, make sure the roads remain clear, stuff like that. When we get word of an attack, we send some soldiers to assist, but it's sadly rare that we get there in time to help. If war ever broke out, I suspect things would get much more interesting."
Wait, if Bieber didn't cover the song why in all hell would anyone think Queen was copying him?...That's a very good point, actually
...this is so baffling I think it might be worse.
: "Ah, say... earlier you were curious about my forest residence. However, it's awfully strange to see a man such as yourself venturing through the woods. What brings you out all this way?"
: "Ah. Well, you see...I kind of got separated from my patrol. We were checking the woods for bandit camps, but to be honest most of the time we just make enough noise to scare them away for a while."
: "I...well, I tripped. Over a log. By the time I picked myself up, I lost sight of the rest of my group and couldn't figure out where they had gone. I decided that it would be better for me to head back to the fortress instead of wandering around alone, and that's when I stumbled across you.
: "Ugh...I'm alive? I'm alive!"
: "You're the woman I was helping earlier! Charlotte, right? Thank you, I owe you my life."
