Dialogue

This is my first chance to see both Kleifheim and the Dornith Mountains. The Lightwyrm makes its home somewhere on those slopes. But there's no time to take in the scenery. We have to hurry. Yeah, but on an empty stomach? I get we need to hustle here, but if we charge up those mountains without any grub, it's gonna be a one-way trip. Food? We're getting food? Yes, please! I fear THAT may present an obstacle to any dining plans... The men are fed and geared for the climb, Highness. We depart on your word. Then depart already! You fools have kept me waiting long enough. Capture the Lightwyrm, and let's be free of this accursed sand trap. Emile?! He must be looking for the Lightwyrm. Well, I suppose he needs a replacement for the Waterwyrm. Good luck! What sort of dragon is gonna take HIM seriously? Perhaps that's what the soldiers are for. Regardless, Jupiter won't be amused. What's our plan, darling? I'm perfectly happy to melt them all into a big puddle here and now, if you like. I doubt the locals would enjoy mopping up molten soldiers. Besides, I'd rather we didn't fight Emile. He's a monster, but he's still family. If we can see our way clear of this without bloodshed, I'd like to do so. I trust the Lightwyrm will be as moved by your kindness as I. Then we'd better hurry up there if we want to find out. Yeah! If we beat Emile to the top and forge a pact with the Lightwyrm, there's nothing left to fight over! Sounds like we have a plan. Onward and upward! Ugh. MORE climbin'? This is a lot rougher on big guys like me, ya know! When you say ＂the top,＂ do you refer to the summit of...THAT peak? *gulp*
