Warriors Supports/Ryoma Navarre

Ryoma: Ho, Navarre! Do you have a moment? I witnessed you in battle... You're swordsmanship reminds me of that of my father, King Sumeragi.

Navarre: I see. So your father was a swordsman as well. Tell me--whose skills are greater? Yours or your father's?

Ryoma: Well, everything I know... I learned form him. And there were things he didn't teach me. Strategy, special tactics and more.

Navarre: Then he is stronger than even the great Ryoma. I would like to challenge him.

Ryoma: If he were alive, I'm sure he would accept your challenge.

Navarre: So he is no longer with us. A shame...

Ryoma: Yes. He fell victim to cowardly political treason and lost his life. But his legacy lives on in the great kingdom of Hoshido!

Navarre: It is interesting that you compare me to him. I feel we're nothing alike. For instance, I am a skeptic. I would never succumb to a treasonous plot. And the idea of leaving a legacy behind after my death is... ridiculous.

Ryoma: But you are alike n your tireless pursuit of strength. In that regard, I stand by my assessment that you are in fact quite similar. But I suppose your character is different, even if you possess similar drive.

Navarre: That's exactly right. Your father sought power in order to strengthen himself as a leader. I, on the other hand, am merely a killer. A hired sword. I only push myself to greater heights in order to kill more efficiently.

Ryoma: Are you saying that you have no aspirations? Nothing to strive for, but strength?

Navarre: That pretty much sums it up.

Ryoma: I see...

Navarre: You must understand. You needn't rely completely on your sword. I, on the other hand, walk a shadowy path. The sword is my only light.

Ryoma: I think you're selling yourself short. You're capable of more, and I think you know it. You've carved a path with your sword. Now is the time to explore beyond it.

Navarre: No. All I have is my sword. You have the power to impact the world in other ways. I lack this.

Ryoma: Your words say one thing, but your actions speak louder. I know some of your history. I know you have a sense of justice. No ordinary assassin would have done things you have done. Trust me.

Navarre: Out of respect, I will consider your words. Perhaps there is something there.

Ryoma: Thank you Navarre. That is all that I ask.
