Heroes of Light and Shadow Base: Astram and Chris
Base conversations
Astram and Chris 1
Chris:
Oh...! Astram... No, Sir Astram.
Astram:
... Is that weapon for training?
Chris:
Yes.
Astram:
...What's wrong, why won't you begin? Or would you rather... we continue our fight from before?
Chris:
...
Astram:
Chiasmir Bridge, Khadein, and then Altea Castle... The two of us have fought many times as enemies. I'm sure you must harbor some resentment towards me.
Chris:
...Prince Marth has accepted you. Therefore, you're our ally. ...However, I'd be lying if I said I held no ill feelings towards you.
Astram:
...Naturally. Then, shall we begin?
Chris:
I have no interest in a battle to the death. However, if you want an one-on-one duel, then I'd love to.
Astram:
Excellent. If that's what you choose, then I shall be your opponent...
Astram and Chris 2
Chris:
...Sir Astram.
Astram:
Somebody interrupted our last duel. I'm sure you weren't fully satisfied. So, shall we continue it now?
Chris:
Yes, I'd love to. ...
Astram:
What's wrong, why are you hesitating? You've been fighting excellently. There's no reason for you to hesitate.
Chris:
I've been thinking about my reason to fight you. Whether this would be proof of my loyalty to Prince Marth or not... That's my only concern.
Astram:
...I'm your enemy, am I not? Is loyalty more important?
Chris:
That's right. Do you find that odd?
Astram:
No, I'm the same. Nothing is more important to me than my loyalty to Princess Nyna.
Chris:
...I see, so that's the kind of knight you are. That's why you pursued us relentlessly, and why you're here with us now...
Astram:
That's true. Everything derives from my loyalty to the princess.
If Chris is male
Chris:
...I changed my mind, Sir Astram. Let's leave our duel for another day.
If Chris is female
Chris:
...Sir Astram. Let's leave our duel for another day.
Astram:
Fine. I'll be your opponent anytime.
Astram and Chris 3
If Chris is male
Chris:
Sir Astram.
Astram:
Chris.
Chris:
When I fought beside you, I understood something. In the beginning, you were our enemy - one I had sworn to strike down with my own hands. However, you... aren't a bad person. Even I know that much.
Astram:
... I might have given you the wrong idea, but I don't wish to fight you anymore. Now, I just... ...wish to apologize to you all. That's it.
Chris:
Apologize...?
Astram:
I didn't expect to obtain that forgiveness through words. So, at the very least, I hoped to use a duel as an apology.
Chris:
So in order to apologize to us, you accepted my challenge, even though I considered you an enemy? Even if it wasn't a duel to the death, didn't you consider the possibility... that I could try and kill you?
Astram:
...I couldn't help it. I didn't know any other way to apologize.
Chris:
...You're a clumsy man, aren't you? But, I might have misunderstood you.
Astram:
...Chris.
Chris:
Sir Astram. I want to test you. I'd like to duel with you right now. However... Not by clashing anger with anger... But in deference to each other, seeking to best each other in battle.
Astram:
Very well, I accept.
