It's not Fire Emblem, just an OC testrun for SRWU
[1]
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.]

"Aff. It's true that there's weapons and power I've not yet tapped into." He says seriously. "Still, you have triumphed! Moments ago, I saw you emerge from the shadows of your fellow knights. I saw you confront your doubt and cast it free. I saw you act with both honor and cunning, confounding my expectations to deliver a fierce wound!"
He powers down his weapons. "I entrust my fate to your hands. Will you release me and allow me to retreat from the battlefield? Or take me prisoner as a bondservant? Both are your rights as the victory..."

You may go. It matters not...

Matthew's Flamberge steps back. "But this I must ask first: what troubles you so?"
no subject
[The Knight's Arm also steps back. Not having anything else to do, it turns and starts to walk away.]
Be it victory or defeat - the result of the struggle was meaningless.

[The Arm walks away.]
Well fought.
[Sielje does not even know his name.]
no subject
"...Neg." He says. "That aura of dejection, of resignation...I won't stand for it. I shall not let you walk away from this fight believing you have gained nothing!"
His Flamberge steps forward. Is he going to attack? No...he's simply matching Sieljie's pace.
"I am Matthew Helmar, warrior of Jade Falcon, commandant of the Invincible Dai-Gurren...and from this day forward, I shall fight on your side! Sieljie of the South...I shall be your ally!"
no subject
[Sielje is surprised - no, shocked, at this turn of events.]
You would change allegiance for a reason like that? Know you not what my faction stands for? This is insanity!
no subject
He leans back in his cockpit. "But if it is a reason you want...during our clash, I felt your inner passion, the heat of your soul." He smiles gently. "It had the warmth of a good person, brave and honorable. Someone who would never fight for an unjust cause, or ask others to do the same."
He arches an eyebrow. "Am I wrong?"

...
I use the rights given to me as victor to command you, Matthew Helmar:
Follow me not.

Matthew turns and leaves.
