Too much fighting. I need a moment's peace...

Lorenz enters the scene

Lorenz

Why, if it isn't Dorothea.

Dorothea
volume_up

What are you doing here?
link
Lorenz
volume_up

Patrolling the grounds. There have been entirely too many raids as of late.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

And yourself?
link
Dorothea
volume_up

Nothing. Not really. I just needed a bit of quiet.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

It is regrettable to see you so troubled by this war. This is not a burden any commoner should bear.
link
Dorothea
volume_up

Don't trouble yourself on my account. So, did you ever find that wife you were looking for?
link
Lorenz
volume_up

This is hardly the time or place for me to be searching for a bride. Why do you ask?
link
Dorothea
volume_up

The truth is... I know this is sudden, but there's a war on, and who knows what tomorrow brings, right?
link
Lorenz
volume_up

Go on.
link
Dorothea
volume_up

I've always been quite fond of you. But I've also, well... I've given up on you.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

That is...sudden. But why would you give up on me?
link
Dorothea
volume_up

You're from a noble family, and I'm a commoner. It would have been scandalous.
link
Dorothea
volume_up

I did what I could to be worthy of you, but you never noticed...
link
Dorothea
volume_up

So I've resigned myself to a lonesome life, my feelings unrequited.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

You found it so easy to give up on me? Truly?
link
Lorenz
volume_up

This war has changed my mind on a great many things, you know! I've given it all a lot of thought!
link
Dorothea
volume_up

I like seeing you flustered, you know that? It makes joking with you so much more fun.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

Joking?
link
Dorothea
volume_up

Yes, joking. It used to be my job to pluck at people's heartstrings, remember?
link
Dorothea
volume_up

And I'm much better at it than you are. Admit it, Sir Lorenz.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

Haha...hahaha. I concede defeat.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

But... But your words have cut straight through to my heart. And now I must tell you how I feel.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

I've always been charmed by you. I do not think I realized just how thoroughly until this moment.
link
Dorothea
volume_up

You and I both know that doesn't matter. Not really. We can never get married.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

Perhaps not now. I've not determined where I stand when it comes to marriage.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

But when this war is over, I will make a decision.
link
Dorothea
volume_up

You will, huh? Gosh, I sure do hope I'm not already married by then.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

Oh, that's hardly a concern. No one you find could possibly compare to me!
