It's not Fire Emblem, just an OC testrun for SRWU

I do not understand your people at all.
[Sielje addresses you either during a walk around town, or shortly after returning from one.]
Is Earth not a very dangerous place? Yet from the locals I saw so few carry any kind of weapon. How are they able to defend themselves when a foe attacks?
And all the beasts I encountered were pitiful and small. They seem to live alongside man completely tamed, are there no hunting grounds?
[2, aimed at mecha pilots - especially skilled ones in weak units or the other way around]
[As you try to leave or enter your unit's cockpit, there she is. A woman in a helmet and with a sword at her side, staring at your machine intently - and now, also at you.]
Strange.
[Is that all you get for a comment?]
[3]
[Tactics are being talked about. Maybe it's a briefing, or some kind of lecture. Maybe it's just a discussion. Either way Sielje's time to contribute.]
What should be done? I will tell you what should be done.
[She stands up.]
Challenge the enemy head on. Engage from the front, or stand your ground but be clear about your intent. No hiding, no tricks.
That would be dishonorable.
[4 - combat prompt]
Ghh...!
[The situation does not look good. The enemy is overpowering in strength or numbers or perhaps both.]
Alright. So be it.
Hear me! I am the knight Sielje, tha Guard of the South! I challenge you to a honorable duel. Beast or man, accept my challenge! You will not go past me!
[Oh crap she is walking forward right towards the most powerful of enemies, Sielje's mass-produced (or what counts as mass-produced for Ankaians) Knight's Arm having only a sword and a beast hide cloak to defend itself with.
It's a surprise her voice cracked and wavered only a little.]

MOST OF THEM WERE POOR BASTARDS THAT DIED FIGHTING FOR THE MUCH SMARTER ASSHOLES AT THE TOP THAT PROMOTED IT.
THERE'S NO HONOR OR GLORY IN WAR. WAR IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN ALL OF THAT RAN OUT AGES AGO. THERE'S JUST WHO COMES BACK AND WHO DOESN'T. AND I INTEND THESE PEOPLE TO BE ON THE FIRST GROUP.

Trying to keep others alive is a lofty goal. If that is your intention, I will support it. However...
[Sielje's gaze lowers.]
We are weak. It is our honor, our dedication to its principles, that makes us strong. If you take that away, what becomes of us?

MY STRENGTH COMES FROM SOMETHING ELSE THAN A SET OF ARBITRARY PLAYGROUND RULES ABOUT WHERE YOU'RE ALLOWED TO HIT PEOPLE. YOU WANT BE LESS WEAK? BURN BY YOURSELF, AND STOP LOOKING OUTWARDS.
IN THE MEANTIME, THOSE OF US WHO STUDIED BASIC TACTICS NEED TO KEEP PREPARING THIS BATTLE PLAN.
no subject
Act as you will. Fight the way of Earth, and I will fight the way of Ankaia.
May both of us ascend in victory.
