Flow of Power/Gregor: Swell Sword

Gregor: Swell Sword - C

Nowi	Gramps! You’re here! Welcome to Askr!
Told you before. Gregor is not ”Gramps.” Gregor is not “Gregs.” Gregor is Gregor! And Gregor is happy in heart to see Nowi healthy and safe.		Gregor
Nowi	Good! I’ve made lots of friends here. There are bad people too, though. That’s why I’ve always hoped you’d show up to protect me like you did before!
How’s it feel to be in such high demand, old friend?		Basilio
Gregor	Basilio is also in Askr!
Not just me—Flavia and Lon’qu as well. Ferox’s best and brightest are all present and accounted for. Oh, and if you see General Mustafa of Plegia...stay your blade. He’s on our side now.		Basilio
Nowi	Musty’s very nice. He always gives me his best sweets.
Is good group, I am thinking. Gregor is much impressed.		Gregor
Basilio	And I’m thinking it’s been too long since we went a few rounds. Why don’t we see if you’ve still got it?
Gregor is mercenary. Only fight when fight is paying. Bones and muscles old now also. Do not want to waste.		Gregor
Basilio	Sounds like you’re growing into your namesake, after all. Still, this is one ”Gramps” I don’t wanna mess with.
Gramps is the best!		Nowi
Gregor	Gregor is not “Gramps”! Gregor is... big brother! Much big brother! With big young spirit!
We’ll see about that. Sooner or later you’ll have to show us what you’re made of.		Basilio
Gregor	Gregor will be Gregor. Next time he is on job, you will see!

Gregor: Swell Sword - B

Gregor	Big young spirit... Pfah. Gregor boast too much. Gregor is paid for victory in fight, not for spirit. To boast so far is...no point.
Hurry up, Scáthach! Our allies are counting on us to soften the enemy up quickly.		Larcei
Scáthach	Understood. Time to put our training to work.
Hey, Velouria, how about a game? Whoever takes down the most bad guys wins!		Selkie
Velouria	Another game? Oh, fine... If a little competition gets this done faster, so be it.
Hah! Hyah! Come on, who’s next? Vouge and I take all comers!		Osian
Tanya	Rein it in, Osian! Some of us are out here struggling to back you up!
So many young ones, work so hard. Is bringing tears to Gregor’s eyes. Much focus. No fear. All hearts on fire. But Gregor is not jealous. Gregor is happy to compete! Oh... More of them coming...		Gregor
Saber	Hrngh! Hah! Phew... I’m all for enthusiasm, but these kids are in such a hurry to break through, they’re making quite a mess.
The privilege of youth. No use trying to control them—let them do as they like.		Seteth
Legault	I, for one, appreciate the distraction. Makes an assassin’s job easier.
Many veterans cleaning up what young ones leave behind. Is good to see. Not every Hero in the Order is seeking glory above all. Hmm...		Gregor

Gregor: Swell Sword - A

Gregor	Fine work, friends!
Uh, sorry, who are you?		Saber
Gregor	Gregor. Mercenary, like you. Your team is with thief and church man? Very interesting.
More or less, though I’m not sure I love being called a common thief. Nice to meet you, in any case.		Legault
Seteth	I am Seteth—an assistant to the archbishop of Garreg Mach monastery in Fódlan. Though we do indeed come from diverse circumstances, the Order of Heroes has brought us together. If you wish to join us, Gregor, we would no doubt welcome your contributions to Askr’s cause.
Gregor already sign contract. Is good paying job! Will continue work as long as pay is coming in. You do good job helping clean up young ones’ mess. Gregor is happy to see. Much chaos on battlefield. Veteran wisdom is good. Much needed.		Gregor
Legault	I don’t know if it’s wisdom so much as it is doing what needs to be done.
We’re just trying to make sure they can actually get out of all the holes they’re digging for themselves. We let them do their thing, we handle what they leave behind, and everybody’s happy. It’s kind of what I’ve been doing ever since I saved that lass back in Novis Greatport anyway. I’m used to it.		Saber
Gregor	Gregor understand. Allies charge forward, need support in back.
Right. Personally, I’d rather be the one hanging behind the vanguard to pick off stragglers. Just my style.		Legault
Gregor	But you maybe help win battle more from front, no? You are happy letting young ones claim all glory?
Accolades are unimportant in the grand scheme of things. Victory is what matters. Besides, the real pleasure is in guiding the next generation of Heroes. Watching them grow.		Seteth
Saber	And these kids have a passion for heroism. They care more about getting strong than anything else. When we combine their energy with our experience, we get the best of both worlds, don’t you think?
Yes, Gregor is seeing how old veterans give much experience to young ones.		Gregor
Legault	You could at least wait until I turn 30 to start calling me old.
You’re still in your twenties? I was sure you were older. Maybe it’s just how you carry yourself.		Saber
Seteth	Age can be a tricky thing. All the more so when dealing with Heroes summoned from other worlds.
Gregor agrees. Even small girls can be living for many hundred years...		Gregor

Gregor: Swell Sword - S

Gregor	Young energy... Old experience... Must combine, make best team on battlefield... Gregor was happy to compete with young ones, but perhaps is better to compete instead with enemy.
There you are, Gregs! I’ve been looking all over for you!		Nowi
Gregor	Gregor’s name is Gregor! But at least “Gregs” is not “Gramps.”
I was thinking maybe you should have some armor to protect that big young spirit you keep talking about. Can I make you something out of my scales? Another sweater, maybe?		Nowi
Gregor	Gregor is grateful for concern, but will not be rushing headlong into battle with the young ones. Also, first sweater is still good shape. Gregor treats it precious, protects it like part of body.
Are you sure? You promise you won’t push yourself too hard?		Nowi
Gregor	Gregor promise. No more compete with young ones over glory. Gregor focus on wisdom, experience. Grow new generation.
That’s great! I’m glad you’re finally proud of your age, Gramps!		Nowi
Gregor	Gregor is no “Gramps”! How much must Gregor explain he is young like spring chicken?! Nowi does not understand. Is OK. Gregor protects Nowi, now and in future. Nowi push forward. Learn, grow. Gregor will watch and guide.
Aww... Thanks, Gramps!		Nowi
Gregor	Gregor’s first lesson—respect elders! Nowi must be paying close attention!
