Adventurer Story Episodes
A Misguided Gift
Cleo: What in the world...?
Ranzal: Somethin' wrong, Cleo? Yer just standin' there lookin' all googly-eyed.
Cleo: When I awoke this morning, I found this package had arrived at the castle. And inside...
Cleo: W-well, take a look for yourself.
Ranzal: What is it? Lemme see...
Ranzal: The hell?!
The Prince: Is that a giant haunch of fiendmeat?
Ranzal: That ain't all.
Ranzal: There was a freshly skinned fiendpelt underneath, plus more meat in thin slices.
Cleo: The truth is, packages like this have been arriving here for the past handful of days.
Cleo: At first they were full of flowers or fruits, but eventually they became like this. Full of...animal skins and the like.
Ranzal: We better hurry up and catch whatever monster is pullin' this sick stunt.
The Prince: If you say this has been happening for a few days, this person could very well make another delivery tomorrow.
The Prince: And we'll be ready and waiting when that happens.
The Prince: Look—someone's there! And he's setting down a package!
Ranzal: He won't get away with this!
Ranzal: Gotcha! What're you playin' at, sendin' us all this weird stuff?!
Rodrigo: I say! What do you mean? I haven't sent anything ＂weird＂ at all!
Rodrigo: I... I just...
Cleo: What is it?
Rodrigo: Well, you see...
Rodrigo: I merely wished to make you happy!
Cleo: You... Wait, you mean ME?
Ranzal: Who the hell'd be happy gettin' a box full'a dead fiends?!
Rodrigo: Are you saying this...displeased you?
Ranzal: That's the understatement of the year.
Rodrigo: I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to upset you.
Rodrigo: I was so certain this would please her...
The Prince: Wait. Do you have FEELINGS for Cleo?
Rodrigo: F-feelings! O-of course not! I simply... I merely wanted to bring some joy to everyone in the castle.
The Prince: What are you getting so flustered about?
Ranzal: Bwa ha ha! This poor sucker wears his heart on his sleeve.
Ranzal: Kinda makes ya wanna help him out.
Ranzal: Hey, Euden, whaddya say we let him stay with us at the castle?
The Prince: Well, this is sudden.
Ranzal: The meat he sent us came from a pretty tough fiend. If he can take somethin' like that down, we could use his strength.
The Prince: Is that so? Well, anyone who might fight beside us is more than welcome...
Ranzal: Exactly. Plus, if we're keeping an eye on him, he can't do any more weird stuff. Two birds, one stone.
The Prince: Indeed. Well, if you think it's a good idea, Ranzal, then I have no objections.
Rodrigo: Th-then I can...stay here with you?
Cleo: Why are you looking at me?
Rodrigo: N-no reason! I... Um, that is...
Rodrigo: I hope I will prove worthy!
Gifting Lessons
Rodrigo: Hraaaagh!
Ranzal: Ya took that thing down in a single strike. Pretty impressive.
Rodrigo: Well, I've been a mercenary for more years than I can count.
Rodrigo: A-and you... You're quite strong yourself.
The Prince: I really am grateful to count someone as skilled as you among my allies.
The Prince: And you haven't done anything untoward since you joined us, either.
Rodrigo: What do you mean?
Ranzal: He's talking about that hunk'a fiendmeat ya sent Cleo.
Ranzal: I know ya wanted to make her happy and all, but it totally backfired.
Ranzal: She was pretty unsettled. I wouldn't be surprised if she hates yer guts.
Rodrigo: Sh-she hates me?!
Rodrigo: I should give her something to apologize. Like...a stuffed animal!
Ranzal: A doll, yeah? Not an actual dead animal?
Rodrigo: I can explain that it's only for decoration, so she won't be frightened. Then she can grow accustomed to seeing fiends!
The Prince: Uh, Rodrigo?
The Prince: You don't really think Cleo would be happy to get a stuffed fiend, do you?
Rodrigo: But it's stuffed! That makes it adorable!
The Prince: I'm not sure she'll think so...
Rodrigo: But...but it's cute!
The Prince: If you're going to give someone a present, you have to think about how they'll feel when they receive it.
Rodrigo: How would she feel...? Hmm... Hmmmm... Goodness, I don't know.
Rodrigo: I've spent my entire life around rough-and-tumble mercenaries.
Rodrigo: I've never spoken to anyone quite like her.
Rodrigo: There have been others to whom I have given gifts...
Rodrigo: But now I see they were all afraid of me.
The Prince: Honestly, I'd be a little scared if someone gave me a bloody haunch of fiendmeat.
Rodrigo: Hmmm. I must put more thought into what would most please the recipient.
Rodrigo: Thank you, Euden.
Rodrigo: I nearly did something to upset Cleo anew.
Rodrigo: Still, it boggles me to learn fiend goods make inappropriate gifts. I thought they were perfect for any occasion!
The Benefits of Fiendmeat
Ranzal: Yer turnin' into a fine swordsman. Each day ya get a little better.
The Prince: Thanks for training with me, Ranzal.
Cleo: Dinner is nearly ready. I think that's enough for one day.
The Prince: Already? Well, training does make time fly, I suppose. I can't wait to see what's for dinner!
Rodrigo: I have returned! Er, what are you all doing here?
Cleo: You!
Cleo: Please tell me that thing in your hand is not a dead fiend!
The Prince: What in the world are you carrying that around for, Rodrigo?
Ranzal: Ya better not be thinkin'a trussin' it up for another ＂present＂ to Cleo!
Rodrigo: N-no! Of course not! I was merely planning to clean and dress my kill.
Ranzal: Yer gonna what?
Rodrigo: Watch!
Ranzal: Whoa. Ya done that more than once, yeah? Took its skin right off.
The Prince: Ah, then you separate the different cuts? Interesting.
The Prince: And now you're wrapping thin slices of meat in the ski... Hold on.
The Prince: That looks exactly like what you sent Cleo.
Ranzal: If ya brought that thing here to give to her after all—
Rodrigo: Th-that isn't my intention in the slightest! You told me Cleo detests fiends, so I will never give anything like that to her again!
Rodrigo: This is to...um...to eat! Yes. For me. To eat.
The Prince: Well, in that case—
The Prince: Wait, you're going to eat that?!
Rodrigo: Of course!
Rodrigo: Fiendmeat is rich in nutrients! It's incredibly beneficial to one's health and also helps prevent illness.
Rodrigo: Not to mention the pelt makes for a fine coat to ward off the recent chill of early dawn and late evening.
Cleo: Is it truly all that you say?
Cleo: In truth, I have been feeling a slight cold coming on these last few days...
Rodrigo: Oh! Um—
Rodrigo: Ha ha ha! Is that so? My, what a coincidence!
Ranzal: Ha ha! Yer as easy to read as ever.
Rodrigo: That, um... I mean, er...
Rodrigo: I have to go!
The Prince: Wow. He's literally running away. I guess he was just too embarrassed.
Cleo: I do not understand that man.
Ranzal: If ya haven't realized by now, poor Rodrigo doesn't have a prayer.
Only the Best Intentions
Cleo: You said you wished to speak with me?
Rodrigo: I, um... Yes, you see... Er, that is...
Rodrigo: There is something I wish to tell you.
Cleo: Yes?
Rodrigo: I'M SORRY! ...Well, there it is.
Rodrigo: I sent you that fiendmeat without even thinking about the emotional effects.
Rodrigo: So I...I wanted to apologize...for that.
Cleo: At first, I honestly thought it was some sort of malicious torment.
Cleo: I wracked my brain trying to think of anyone who might be nursing a grudge against me.
Rodrigo: I am truly sorry.
Cleo: Then I finally understood when Ranzal told me.
Cleo: You sent flowers and fruit before you started sending...other things.
Cleo: They all bear medicinal or nutritional value. As does fiendmeat.
Cleo: And the pelt protects against any chill.
Cleo: You sent me all of that because you hoped it would help me fend off my cold. Is that right?
Rodrigo: ......
Cleo: Rodrigo, you are very kind, if maladroit.
Rodrigo: Cleo...
Rodrigo: I... I have feelings for—
The Prince: I wonder how Rodrigo's doing. Telling someone how you feel is no easy thing.
The Prince: Ah, and here he is.
Rodrigo: I'm back, Euden.
The Prince: How did it go? What did Cleo say?
Rodrigo: I cleared up the misunderstandings about the presents I sent.
Rodrigo: But...
Rodrigo: In the end, I failed to convey my feelings.
The Prince: I'm sorry to hear that.
Rodrigo: Don't be! With the misunderstanding dealt with, I'll be able to express my feelings!
Ranzal: Ya did well back there.
Rodrigo: W-were you watching, Ranzal?!
Ranzal: I'd call that a win, if ya ask me. I'm impressed.
Ranzal: This calls fer a night on the town, Rodrigo. Let's stay out till the break'a dawn!
Rodrigo: Your kindness means the world to me.
Rodrigo: One day I'll be able to tell her how I truly feel...
Progress is Progress
Rodrigo: There you are, Euden!
The Prince: Hm? Were you looking for me?
Rodrigo: Yes! I wanted to thank you!
The Prince: What for?
Rodrigo: For helping me clear up the misunderstanding between myself and Cleo.
Rodrigo: And for advising me to think about the feelings of the recipient when gifting.
Rodrigo: I owe you a great deal, Euden.
The Prince: No, you don't; I didn't do anything. You've become a better person all on your own.
Rodrigo: That is most untrue! Who is to say what strange things I would have tried to give her had you not advised me otherwise?
Rodrigo: Cleo would have certainly grown to loathe me without your coaching.
Rodrigo: Just like all the others I frightened in the past...
The Prince: ......
Rodrigo: I gave no thought to what might please them—only to what I would like if I were to receive it myself.
Rodrigo: It never crossed my mind there might be another way.
Rodrigo: But then you showed it to me.
Rodrigo: Your words have left me a changed man.
The Prince: Wow. I'm not really sure what to say.
Rodrigo: That's why I wanted to come thank you.
Rodrigo: I would like you to have this as a token of my gratitude and our friendship.
The Prince: That's most kind of you.
The Prince: It... It wouldn't happen to be fiendmeat or anything like that, would it?
Rodrigo: No, no! I no longer give gifts of that sort. This is something much better.
The Prince: Huh? Wh-what is this?!
Rodrigo: It's a bracelet I crafted out of fiendbone!
The Prince: This is...kind of amazing.
The Prince: You've got some serious talent.
Rodrigo: It also acts as a charm to ward off evil.
Rodrigo: I made it in hopes it would protect you and bring you luck.
The Prince: I'm touched, Rodrigo!
The Prince: The fact you put so much thought into this is further proof of how much you've grown.
Rodrigo: T-truly?!
Rodrigo: That's wonderful to hear! Then I shall make one for Cleo, too!
The Prince: W-wait!
The Prince: Just because I like it doesn't mean Cleo will. I don't really think she's into... You know. Bones.
Rodrigo: Oh? Do bones frighten her?
Rodrigo: I see. I must tailor my presents to the preferences of each individual I give them to... Another important lesson. Thank you.
Rodrigo: I hope to learn much more from you going forward!
The Prince: Well, he's a little better, I guess.
The Prince: But he still has a long way to go before he truly understands others.
