'''Siegbert''':
Greetings, Ophelia. Out for a stroll? 

'''Ophelia''':
Well, well, well... If it isn't the royal tadpole, Siegbert. 

'''Siegbert''':
Pardon? A tadpole, you say? Did I do something to offend you? 

'''Ophelia''':
I've worked long and hard to become one of the chosen ones. 

'''Siegbert''':
Chosen one? What's that? 

'''Ophelia''':
Augh! You don't know even that? Precisely my point. A chosen one is a rare hero, chosen by fate, whom all admire. I've trained every day of my life in preparation for being a chosen one. 

'''Siegbert''':
Yes! That's so admirable! But what have I done to offend you? 

'''Ophelia''':
You're a chosen one by birth. You'll be a king someday without even trying! 

'''Siegbert''':
I might become a king, but— 

'''Ophelia''':
It's not fair. 

'''Siegbert''':
I...I can't choose the circumstances of my birth, Ophelia. 

'''Ophelia''':
Oh, just forget I said anything. 

'''Siegbert''':
Please, what can I say to— 

'''Ophelia''':
Excuse me. I've got somewhere I need to be, Siegbert. 

(Ophelia leaves) 

'''Siegbert''':
Ophelia, I beg of you, stay! I didn't mean to insult you!

==B Support==

'''Siegbert''':
Pardon, Ophelia? 

'''Ophelia''':
What do you want, Siegbert? Can it wait? I'm training hard to be the chosen one. 

'''Siegbert''':
I need just a moment. 

'''Ophelia''':
Hurry up then. 

'''Siegbert''':
Recall the other day when you said I'm a chosen one because I'm a future king? 

'''Ophelia''':
Yes, so? 

'''Siegbert''':
Being born to royalty doesn't make me a chosen one. 

'''Ophelia''':
Of course it does. 

'''Siegbert''':
I was lucky enough to be born royal. It wasn't a matter of choice. 

'''Ophelia''':
Yes, so? 

'''Siegbert''':
When I am king, it won't be because my people chose me. 

'''Ophelia''':
Get to the point. 

'''Siegbert''':
Isn't it obvious? You're a chosen one. Not me. I never could be. I'm just not incredible enough for fate to choose me. But you, Ophelia? You've worked hard for this and it shows. You are a chosen one through and through. How could fate not choose you? That's...all I had to say. 

(Siegbert leaves) 

'''Ophelia''':
Oh, Siegbert... I think I hurt that poor boy's feelings.

==A Support==

'''Ophelia''':
Hey, Siegbert! 

'''Siegbert''':
What's wrong, Ophelia? 

'''Ophelia''':
I want to say I'm sorry about the other day. 

'''Siegbert''':
I can't imagine what you have to apologize for. 

'''Ophelia''':
All that awful stuff I said about you being chosen by birth while I have to work for it. 

'''Siegbert''':
Oh, that? Put it right out of your mind. I worried that I'd offended you. 

'''Ophelia''':
No—I insulted your future role as a king, which has got to be hard on you. I always see you preparing for your future. I was a jerk, frankly. 

'''Siegbert''':
It's all right. I'm not upset. 

'''Ophelia''':
That's because you have the grace of a true king, Siegbert. Among many other excellent qualities. I'd choose you to be a king, even if you weren't born to it. 

'''Siegbert''':
Very kind of you, Ophelia. 

'''Ophelia''':
You never abuse your high standing. You constantly fret about your future. If the people of your country saw that, they'd all choose you too! I know you're going to be the most incredible king ever, Siegbert. 

'''Siegbert''':
I...I can only hope. Thank you, Ophelia. 

'''Ophelia''':
No need to thank me. 

'''Siegbert''':
For those generous words? Yes, I do. Furthermore, I see how hard you train. You inspire me every day. 

'''Ophelia''':
Oh, that's nice of you to notice. 

'''Siegbert''':
How about we train together from now on? Our aspirations joined together—you, the chosen one. I, a king. 

'''Ophelia''':
That sounds perfect, Siegbert. We were fated to be such great friends!

'''Siegbert''':
Greetings, Ophelia. 

'''Ophelia''':
My favorite training companion! You look like you need something, Siegbert. 

'''Siegbert''':
You're familiar with charms, chants, and so forth. May I ask you something? 

'''Ophelia''':
For you, my vast mind is an open book. What would you like to know? 

'''Siegbert''':
Is there any way to accurately predict the future? 

'''Ophelia''':
Hmm. Fortune-telling of any sort is a hint wrapped in a clue. That's all. 

'''Siegbert''':
There's no method that's better than that? 

'''Ophelia''':
Fate is a cart with a missing wheel. It'll go in the right direction. But it wobbles, and no amount of fortune-telling will help. The only thing I can think of is if someone from the future came back in time. That person would know the details. But time-travel is impossible, of course. 

'''Siegbert''':
It is? How sad. 

'''Ophelia''':
What is it that you're trying to pin down about the future? 

'''Siegbert''':
Who my wife will be. 

'''Ophelia''':
Your wife? 

'''Siegbert''':
You see, I know of a fantastic woman I hope would marry me. But I doubt that she would consider hitching her fate to mine. 

'''Ophelia''':
Oh, I see. It's probably best that you can't see the future of all that. 

'''Siegbert''':
Why not? It would be very reassuring. 

'''Ophelia''':
That's exactly why not. What kind of proposal involves knowing the outcome? A woman needs to consent to marriage. But if you know she will...? I'd say you just go for broke. Ask! Propose! Leap into the chasm! 

'''Siegbert''':
That sounds dangerous... 

'''Ophelia''':
Not really. Not for you. There isn't a woman alive who'd turn down a proposal from you. 

'''Siegbert''':
Then, Ophelia, would you please grant me your hand in marriage? 

'''Ophelia''':
Now, see? There you go? When the time comes, say it JUST like that. Wait. Did— Me? Did you? Just? Propose to?! 

'''Siegbert''':
If I may unscramble that, Ophelia? Yes, I just proposed to you. 

'''Ophelia''':
You want to marry ME?! 

'''Siegbert''':
If you'll only accept this ring... 

'''Ophelia''':
Th-this seems so sudden! 

'''Siegbert''':
Ah, so it's no. 

'''Ophelia''':
No, it's not no. It's yes, but only if you understand that my fate as the chosen one comes first. I love everything you are, but I cannot give up everything that I am. 

'''Siegbert''':
I would ask for nothing more. 

'''Ophelia''':
How lovely to be chosen twice in life! Once by fate, and now by you! I suppose I should have seen all this coming—us training so well together. I do choose you, Siegbert. I choose you to be with me, forever.
