Nah:
*Sigh* Dealing with Mother is just so exasperating! All she ever does is play, play, play, as if she hasn't a care in the world!
Henry:
What's wrong, Nah? You seem like you're in quite a mood.
Nah:
Oh, hello, Father. I was just thinking about Mother again... How do you stand her? Don't you find her incredibly childish? Annoying, even? She spends almost all of her time running around camp playing games.
Henry:
Nya ha! I was JUST thinking how the two of you are so alike in many ways... But no, I don't find her annoying. It's who she is—I wouldn't want her to change!
Nah:
Tsk! Father, you're MUCH too kind. If you're always this tolerant, she'll never learn to act her age!
Henry:
Well, I...
Nah:
What do you like about her, anyway? I have no idea what you see in her... Unless...you rushed into marriage for some reason? Like you got her—
Henry:
What?! That's just crazy talk! I knew exactly what I was getting into!
Nah:
Oh? That's quite a protest there... I guessed right, didn't I?
Henry:
No, no, no. I was well aware of her frivolous side. I find it...charming. Yeah, that's it. Charming.
Nah:
You know what, Father? I don't believe you one bit. Come now, spit it out. Why DID you marry her?
Henry:
Hey, that's enough! You shouldn't be talking about your mother like this.
Nah:
Hey, stop! Don't run away from me! WAAAAAAIT!

Nah:
Father! Cornered you at last! It's time we finished our conversation.
Henry:
Nah, you're insanely persistent, but that discussion is over. I'm not getting into any more detail about why I chose your mother, and that's that!
Nah:
AWWWWWW. Why not?! A daughter simply MUST know how her parents fell in love! You don't understand how a woman's heart works. You're so CRUEL!
Henry:
Heh, you're a little young to understand about a "woman's heart," yourself.
Nah:
...Did you just mention my AGE?! Gods, forget what I said. It's a wonder any woman deigned to choose YOU...
Henry:
Nah? I know what you're trying to do here. But don't forget, I AM your father. If you keep this up, I WILL get upset, and I WILL punish you...
Nah:
Eep! S-sorry, Father. I didn't mean to make you angry... I swear.
Henry:
All right, then... I appreciate the apology.
Nah:
I've been selfish and unreasonable. Please find it in yourself to forgive me.
Henry:
Yeah, of course. But—
Nah:
I guess I've wasted enough of your time. I'll just be...going now.
Henry:
No, wait.
Nah:
Yes?
Henry:
You seem so crestfallen... Are you all right?
Nah:
*Sigh* I suppose I'll just have to deal with the crushing disappointment, won't I? I mean, if my father is going to become so angry over a simple, innocent question...
Henry:
Um, yeah, well... See, it's just—
Nah:
No, no. You don't have to explain. I'm used to dealing with hardship. Being spurned by my own father is just another drop in my bucket of torment. Hardly worth mentioning at all. Truly! ...Anyway, have a nice day.
Henry:
B-b-but... Geez, is this really what I have to look forward to for the next decade?

Henry:
Nah...
Nah:
Why, hello, Father. What can I do for you?
Henry:
About the other day, when you said you were used to disappointment... What exactly did you mean by that?
Nah:
Oh, that... I was talking about growing up in my foster home.
Henry:
Wait, so Nowi wasn't around to raise you?
Nah:
No. I never knew either of my parents. I was sent to live with the family of one of my father's soldier friends. But my new family wasn't very welcoming to their semihuman-mongrel foster child.
Henry:
Don't say that...
Nah:
I soon learned that I'd have to work hard to fit in and survive in my new home. I did chores before I was asked. I helped defend the house from marauding Risen. I thought that if I could make myself useful, they would stop...hating me. I mean, how could they resent a child that always helped and never asked for anything? But they never accepted me... I just learned to deal with disappointment. I had no friends. No one to talk to. ...I was utterly alone. And I never once mentioned how much I missed my father and mother. *Sniff* I...I didn't even ask...when...when would they come back for me...
Henry:
...Nah, I...
Nah:
Wh-when I arrived here, I wanted to find out everything I could about them. *sniff* Th-that's why I keep asking so many questions and making you angry...
Henry:
I'm sorry, Nah. I've been blind this whole time... I'll tell you anything you want to know—even the embarrassing story of how we met... And if you're ever feeling lost or sad, I'll be right here for you. As long as I'm around, you won't ever be lonely again!
Nah:
T-truly? Do you really mean it?! Oh, thank you, Father!
Henry:
Nya ha! Of course! Now tell me, what do you want to know?
Nah:
Let's start with how you proposed to Mother! What'd you say? What'd you do?! I want to hear EVERYTHING, and don't leave out even the smallest detail!
Henry:
Yikes. All right, well...as you know, your mother's always looked young, and...
