Hearts as One/Nailah: Unflinching Eye


Sharena	Oh! Are you headed out, Nailah?
I am. I want to converse with some of the Heroes who have gathered here.		Nailah
Alfonse	You know, Heroes are often slightly bewildered by the sudden change of surroundings after being summoned... But now that I think about it, you haven't been the least bit timid from the first moment you arrived.
This place is quite like my homeland, Hatari. There, laguz and beorc, many tribes and races, all live together. This castle is the same. Many kinds of Heroes are gathered here, from many nations and backgrounds.		Nailah
Sharena	Huh! So that's why you take to it so naturally!
My country is surrounded by desert and was separated from outsiders for a long time. Thanks to that separation, Hatari was spared when it came to wars, but...it could get a little boring, to be honest. Talking and training with some of the Heroes gathered here, however... there's never a dull moment. That reminds me... I ought to thank `【Summoner】` for this.		Nailah


Nailah	It's odd that the people of Askr seem so unconcerned when they see us laguz around.
It's not too odd if you consider the fact that they've seen many other Heroes transform into dragons.		Anna
Nailah	Ah, the dragon tribe. Manakete... That is what they're called here, yes? I suppose their presence does explain the lack of surprised looks when one of us laguz transforms.
Well, to be honest, it is quite shocking to see someone change into a dragon right in front of you, but... I think humans just get used to things they see all the time. Now we just know when they're giving their all.		Anna
Nailah	I see... Everything unfamiliar grows comfortable with time.
To let you in on a little something, I've actually been developing a new type of clothing.		Anna
Nailah	What do you mean?
So when the manakete turn into dragons...they're kind of...naked. Well, they have no clothes, right? BUT...imagine if there were special clothes designed for dragons, so they could be warm even in snow and ice! And dragonfolks could put their style on display even while they're in their dragons forms! The idea basically sells itself, right?		Anna
Nailah	Growing comfortable with unfamiliar people is one thing, but then turning around and marketing to them... Huh.


Nailah	Hah! Exhilarating! I was just at the— Oh, what do you call that place again, where the beorc fight? The "arena"? I can tell from watching the sparring matches, you beorc crave battle no less than we laguz do.
Was that where you were headed when you were leaving here the other day? To watch the arena?		Alfonse
Nailah	Indeed. And when I get the chance, I don't just watch—I train. Back in Hatari, I thought I had kept my fangs sharp, but here... Here, there are plenty who can match me...some who are even sharper and stronger than I.
I know what you mean. Much of my time is spent training, yet every new Hero exposes a new shortcoming.		Alfonse
Nailah	That is a blessing. It encourages you to progress... Someone who doesn't lament their situation cannot grow. Someone who only laments their situation, however, and doesn't put in work, cannot be called a warrior.
Hm. That's very true. I'm going to take that to heart. Thank you.		Alfonse
Nailah	No. Thank you. I haven't felt this feeling for a long time—wanting to get stronger. I had nearly forgotten what it's like to get excited just wondering what kind of new foe tomorrow will bring!


Tibarn	I must say, Nailah, you've been quite bright-eyed and bushy-tailed lately.
Oh? You've been awfully chipper yourself, Tibarn.		Nailah
Tibarn	The enthusiasm of the group here is infectious, I admit. I suppose you could say the same for yourself?
For me...it's the fact that the Heroes here, beorc and laguz alike, all seek to become more than what they are. Some want to find their limits, others just want to be stronger so they can protect someone they care about... There are many reasons among the Heroes here—and I find each and every one fascinating. I'm in good spirits because I can relate to so many here... And I can train with them whenever I want.		Nailah
Tibarn	Hah! How like you.
I know our highest priority is to put a stop to the wars that plague this land, and I will not forget that. Nevertheless! This is the perfect place to grow my strength, and I won't let the opportunity pass. I want to see just how strong I can get... Every fiber of my being demands an even stronger foe.		Nailah
Tibarn	Well, how about this, then—let's see which of us can get stronger here.
Hm... That could be entertaining. Will the hawk's talons or the white wolf's fangs come out on top? Whichever the case, let it be a fight this world won't soon forget.		Nailah
