Seteth, Felix enter the scene

Hello, Felix. Training alone again, I see.
link
Felix
volume_up

Spying on me again, I see.
link
Seteth
volume_up

It is not my intention to spy. I am merely concerned about you.
link
Seteth
volume_up

I do not think you have been keeping your friends at a distance because you dislike them personally.
link
Seteth
volume_up

Rather, I think what bothers you is their concept of proper knighthood. Is that not so?
link
Felix
volume_up

Hmph. You really have been watching me closely.
link
Felix
volume_up

You're correct. I don't understand why they revere knighthood.
link
Felix
volume_up

I won't be friends with anyone who believes in that nonsense.
link
Seteth
volume_up

Do you feel that way because of what happened in the Tragedy of Duscur?
link
Seteth
volume_up

I have heard the story. Your brother was one of the royal knights. He gave his life to defend the prince.
link
Felix
volume_up

My brother was doing his job. My father is the real problem. When my brother's armor was brought back to the castle, do you know what he said?
link
Felix
volume_up

"He died like a true knight."
link
Felix
volume_up

Chivalry begets the worship and glorification of death. Am I alone in finding that grotesque?
link
Felix
volume_up

I suppose you'll excommunicate me for blaspheming like this.
link
Seteth
volume_up

Not at all. I am not a knight, so I have no intentions of lecturing you about chivalry.
link
Seteth
volume_up

So long as one's conduct is consistent with the teachings of the goddess, it is up to the individual to decide right from wrong.
link
Felix
volume_up

In that case, I'd like you to formally pardon me for not having friends.
link
Seteth
volume_up

You require no such pardon. This is merely advice from an old man to a younger one.
link
Seteth
volume_up

As unwavering as your convictions may be, the others also feel strongly about their beliefs.
link
Seteth
volume_up

If you hate all those whose beliefs are different from yours, you will hate everyone eventually.
link
Seteth
volume_up

People with exactly the same beliefs as you simply do not exist.
link
Seteth
volume_up

You do not have to change your beliefs, of course. But you do have to accept that others feel differently.
link
Seteth
volume_up

That is my advice to you. I will speak no more of it.
link
Felix
volume_up

Seteth. Can I ask one thing?
link
Felix
volume_up

Why are you going out of your way to tell me this? Why bother with me at all?
link
Seteth
volume_up

Because I trust you. Now that I have heard what you have to say, I trust you even more.
link
Seteth
volume_up

I am also a rather eccentric person. I thought you and I might get along.
link
Felix
volume_up

I see.
link
Felix
volume_up

You've gone to so much trouble, I may have to start making an effort as well.
link
Seteth
volume_up

Good. Do not take this the wrong way, but I hope you will surpass my expectations.
