1. Lansdowne Forest

33 lines

With Vivien's help, we secured ourselves a ship and reached the port by dusk.

Elizabeth

We have returned at last!

Bedivere

Finally, a warm bed awaits.

Morgana

And as much juicy meat as we can eat.

Ethan

Are you sure you're a nature-loving fairy, Morgana? You sure like meat an awful lot.

Morgana

Watch your tongue, Ethan. Meat is my reason to go on living.

Ethan

Well, I know we're resting first, but we have a lot riding on us from here on out. Starting with going to Cornwall to persuade King Mark.

Elizabeth

Do you have a plan on how to get to Cornwall, Ethan?

The way towards Pendeen is flat, while we will be close if we cross Lansdowne Hill.

Ethan

Take the flat path

Morgana

Won't that take too long though?

Ethan

Cross the hill

Then we got our answer. Let's cross the hill.

Bedivere

Lansdowne Hill is rumored to be home to giant, frightening beasts... Will we be all right?

Elizabeth

Why wouldn't we? We have fought many-a monster thus far and came out on top.

Ethan

Exactly. We cut down whatever monster we find any way we can.

Bedivere

Whew, something about this seems overly optimistic...

Morgana

It is not for a fool to think before doing. All right, let's go!

Elizabeth

Ugh... Abominable...

Ethan

I think we threw it off our trail now.

Elizabeth

Ew... My clothing is all wet from the mucus...

Bedivere

Truly an abhorrent creature... I never wish to see it again...

Morgana

Heh, so exhausted from a puny king slime? You disappoint me.

Ethan

And who was it that almost got eaten by a puny king slime multiple times?

Morgana

Please, who was actually eaten?!

I can take a king slime out with a simple strike of my fist like...

*Chomp*

Ethan

Huh? Morgana?

Elizabeth

Morgana!!! She's caught in a giant mouth!!!

Morgana

(It's dark! I can't see! Ethan? Ethaaaan! Waaaah!!!)

Ethan

We gotta save her! We still need her!

Elizabeth

O-Of course!

Morgana

(I'll stay useful tooooo!!!)

Elizabeth

Well then... Are you all right, Morgana?

Morgana

...Haaa, haaa...

I am Morgana, the pathetic Fairy Queen that reeks of monster muck...

Elizabeth

What do we do, Ethan, with Morgana in this state?

Ethan

It's okay. There's just tiny buggers ahead. We can plow through 'em ourselves.

Elizabeth

I was not asking about fighting. I am concerned for Morgana's well-being.

Ethan

She's fiiine. There's no fairy tougher than her!

Morgana

Shut up, piggy! You were tickling my feet while I was getting eaten!

Ethan

Haha... Oh, that... Yeah! I was just checking if you were still alive!

Morgana

You shall treat my cutie sexy body as merits a fairy queen!!!

Elizabeth

Gah, the Imperial Army!

Ethan

These guys knew we were coming this way. They were waiting for us.

Gaheris

I wondered why you rushed past last time. You are the Swordbringer!

Elizabeth

Careful, Ethan! Gaheris is known as a tactical master. You mustn't let down your guard lest you fail!

Ethan

Hm, tactical master, huh? Not a master of the sword then?

Ethan

You have people praise your tactical skill 'cause you suck with a sword, don't you?

Gaheris

Are you so cocksure that you think I made it this far with just my mind?

Ethan

I mean, it kind of looks that way. You hid in the back last time too, just throwing out orders.

Gaheris

Why you little...!

James

Do not give in to his provocations, General!

Gaheris

I will cut you down myself!

Ethan

Nice, she's aggravated. Let's break through the front line and escape!

Bedivere

That works...?

Gaheris

Agh, curses...

Ethan

See? You suck with a sword.

Gaheris

When I get my hands on you, you will eat those words...

Elizabeth

Ethan! This way!

Ethan

See ya next time!

Gaheris

You hellion!!!
