Spanning Time/Kjelle: Fair Fighter

Kjelle: Fair Fighter - C

Kjelle	Everything seems ready. My gear is prepped, and my body feels light. Today's training'll yield good results!
You sure seem to be in good spirits today, Kjelle! Let's do our best out there on the field today, all right?		Sharena
Kjelle	Ah, Princess Sharena. We're being deployed together, are we? I hope I live up to your expectations.
Our training today is set to be held on a battlefield designed to resemble an abandoned village. There are six key bases spread around the village, and whoever controls the most wins!		Sharena
Kjelle	Hm. I'm used to sparring one-on-one, but the battlefield is another story. I've been looking forward to this.
Me too! Now...let's get out there!		Sharena
Kjelle	Nngh...
...elle! Hey, Kjelle!		Sharena
Kjelle	Ugh... Wh-where am I?
Thank goodness! You've come to!		Sharena
Kjelle	That's right... We were...in the middle of a mock training battle, and... And... then something happened... Oh! A knight in black armor came out of nowhere and...took me out with a single blow...
Hm. Well, the mock battle is over. Our opponents captured all the bases we had secured...		Sharena
Kjelle	I was defeated... Without being any use whatsoever... Even though I've stayed up countless nights training... I was so confident...
D-don't worry, Kjelle! We'll get 'em next time, right?		Sharena
Kjelle	Mrrghh...

Kjelle: Fair Fighter - B

Nah	Kjelle... It's time to come out of your armor now... Even IF it calms you down, it cannot be good for you to be in there for so long.
You know she's right, Kjelle. And trust me—I know how it feels to want to run away and hide... But you can't live your whole life from inside your armor.		Yarne
Kjelle	I'm not running away.
Princess Sharena told us everything. Is losing some mock battle really a reason to be so down in the dumps?		Yarne
Kjelle	Losing is fine. It happens. It's...how I lost that isn't. How could I lose to another knight so easily?
"Victory is never guaranteed," as they say... I'm sure the next one will go better. You're a great knight, after all!		Nah
Kjelle	It wasn't mere chance that I was beaten. I was thoroughly outmatched. Outclassed. The long days and nights I spent training instilled me with a certain confidence... But I had only my past self to measure my improvement against.
D-don't worry about it so much, Kjelle. I, for one, know how strong you are!		Yarne
Kjelle	Not strong enough... I must get stronger. I have to be strong enough to prevent the tragedy of our time from repeating itself.
Kjelle...		Nah
Kjelle	What can I do? What...am I missing?!

Kjelle: Fair Fighter - A

Kjelle	I must...get stronger. Strong enough to overcome even the most powerful Heroes here. But how? How can I close the gap?
Oof... Man, everything hurts. Geez, that guy could've gone a little easier on me...		Brady
Kjelle	Brady? What happened? You look... terrible!
Oh, this? I was just trainin'. The guy said he was monk, but...I'm not so sure... He beat me up, all with this smile on his smug mug.		Brady
Kjelle	So, you lost...
Yeah. But these are just growing pains, y'know? Gotta take a few lumps to get stronger sometimes.		Brady
Kjelle	Growing pains, huh?
Yeah. This place is full of Heroes who are legends in their world, y'know— and we're training with 'em! On the one hand, we're just rookie weaklings compared to them... But! Since we're as green as we are, we got all this room to learn and grow and improve! Even if we don't have a hope of winnin', at least we can say we had a chance to spar with the greats!		Brady
Kjelle	I understand what you're getting at. I'ts just that...the gap between our skill levels is so wide...
You just can't see how we can ever cross that distance, eh? It's true that, even if ya fought one hundred battles, you'd probably end up losin' to 'em every single time... But the you who gets up after bein' beat all those times would be that much stronger.		Brady
Kjelle	... Muscles only get stronger if you work them...flex them. Even if I don't win...I can still learn. I can still grow... I lost sight of that. Hmph. To think you, of all people, would be the one to remind me of that. I really have gotten soft...
What's that supposed to mean?! Sheesh. Ya try to be helpful...		Brady
Kjelle	Hm. Growing pains... Whatever it takes—I will get stronger!

Kjelle: Fair Fighter - S

Sharena	Nice work out there today, Kjelle! Today's mock battle was pretty close, huh? We almost won!
You played no small part yourself, Princess Sharena. But thank you. This time, some demonic giant, who... carried a pumpkin...knocked me flying with his axe. The Order of Heroes sure attracts a wide variety of...unique members.		Kjelle
Sharena	Well, I hope you're OK! I can call Brady over if you're injured.
For these scratches? He'd just laugh. While I'm still not satisfied with my performance... My main goal isn't to win anymore—it's to grow. That's what makes even the losing battles worth it.		Kjelle
Sharena	Kjelle... There's a spark in your eyes that wasn't there before. They're practically glowing!
So they are! The positive outlook suits you, Kjelle.		Nah
Yarne	Yeah! I like happy Kjelle!
I'm sorry for worrying you all...		Kjelle
Brady	So, ya really leaned into the idea that your power will only grow if ya use it, huh? Then, let us join ya, side by side! You're not the only one who's aimin' to get stronger, y'know.
You're right... You all have just as much reason to get stronger as I do. And if we all use our power together, we can get much further than if we go it alone.		Kjelle
Sharena	Yeah! We'll get them next time! If we all work together, we'll claim a victory in no time!
Right! We may not win right away, but we'll get where we're headed if we just take it step-by-step.		Kjelle
