Example dialogue
Richard: "U-um... g-good morning. I... I hope you slept well." Mercenary: "Richard, you don't have to be nervous." Richard: "I-I know. Sorry. I just... d-don't really know what to say." Mercenary: "Should we take the mountain road?" Richard: "I-I wouldn't recommend it. It's narrow, with only two ways out. If we're attacked, we'll have almost no room to maneuver." Mercenary: "So the forest?" Richard: "Y-yes. It's slower, but there are several escape routes." Richard: "W-Wait...! Did you see that spell? The flames weren't destroyed—they were absorbed into the circle!" Mercenary: "There he goes." Richard: "S-Sorry. I just... I've never seen magic behave like that before." Camila: "That was a good plan." Richard: "I-it was?" Camila: "Yes." Richard: "...Right."
