Hngh...

Who's there?

Ignatz enters the scene

Leonie
volume_up

Oh. Hey, Ignatz.
link
Ignatz
volume_up

I'm sorry! I didn't mean to interrupt you.
link
Leonie
volume_up

Relax. You're not interrupting.
link
Ignatz
volume_up

I'm sorry. I didn't know you were training out here.
link
Leonie
volume_up

I sometimes come here to practice by myself. It's more like a real battlefield, you know?
link
Leonie
volume_up

Shooting the targets in the yard lets you train your aim and all, but the tension just isn't the same.
link
Ignatz
volume_up

You're right. A real battlefield feels quite different. But if that's the atmosphere you want, I feel even more like I'm intruding.
link
Leonie
volume_up

Oh, knock it off. You're already here. May as well stick around while I catch my breath.
link
Ignatz
volume_up

Ah, OK. Sorry. Thank you. Sorry to bother you.
link
Leonie
volume_up

You know you've said you're sorry about a dozen times since you got here?
link
Ignatz
volume_up

Oh, I'm so... Ah.
link
Leonie
volume_up

It's fine. I guess it's part of your charm.
link
Leonie
volume_up

Hey... What's that bundle of papers? Oh, did you come here to paint?
link
Leonie
volume_up

I remember now! Someone said you're a great artist. You paint a lot, right?
link
Ignatz
volume_up

Uh, yes. Yes. When I have the time, that is. I enjoy painting. It helps me relax.
link
Leonie
volume_up

Ah! Well, that could be your thing.
link
Ignatz
volume_up

My...thing? Huh? What do you mean?
link
Leonie
volume_up

Last time we talked about it, you said you didn't have a thing you were really amazing at.
link
Leonie
volume_up

But if you like painting so much, it must be a skill you're looking to master.
link
Ignatz
volume_up

M-my paintings are nothing but a hobby! Besides, I'm not that good. I never took art lessons.
link
Ignatz
volume_up

When...when I was little, I drew a picture for a young girl. The picture made her so happy that I decided to keep at it. That's how it started.
link
Leonie
volume_up

So, you're practicing your art to make other people happy? Is that it?
link
Ignatz
volume_up

Oh, no, that's an overstatement. I must insist, again, it's just a hobby.
link
Ignatz
volume_up

Even if I were to become a master artist, it wouldn't be a useful skill.
link
Leonie
volume_up

Aren't you from a merchant family employed by the nobles? I'd think it would be really useful there.
link
Ignatz
volume_up

I'm not inheriting the business. My brother is. My father said that I'm to become a knight.
link
Ignatz
volume_up

So my art won't do anyone any good. At all. Ever.
link
Leonie
volume_up

Oh, Ignatz.
