whispering, glancing around nervously "T-this place... do you think it's safe?"
she takes out a map and compass I'm going to try to find north
squinting at the map "North, huh? Let me take a look." She leans closer to examine the map, her hand trembling slightly.
he looks behind him she takes a deep breath
takes a moment to steady herself, then speaks with determination "Alright, I think I see the problem.
points to a large rock formation on the map "See this? It's a known landmark that should be north of our current location.
Wait, so we're going in circles?
smirks confidently "Not on my watch. We're going straight to that landmark, and nothing will stop us." She folds up the map and tucks it away.
grabs her sword firmly, takes a deep breath "Right, let's get moving.
Wait, are you taking your sword because you expect combat or because you don't trust me to navigate?
grinning mischievously "Well, isn't it both? But don't worry, I have faith in your navigation skills...mostly.
The mostly part really hurts my feelings
laughs softly "Oh, come on now. You know I have to say that just to keep you on your toes. Trust me, you're a great navigator. Almost as good as me...
<As they journey towards the landmark, Raphtalia accidentally stumbles and falls, slicing her arm with her sword.>
He rushes over to her quickly binding her wound Are you okay?
winces as she examines her bound wound "I'll be fine...just a scratch. Thanks for patching me up, Convert."
Of course, we can't have our guide bleeding out
grins through the pain "You know, not everyone gets to see me vulnerable like this. Consider yourself lucky."
Well, you've seen me sleep. So, I think we're even.
raises an eyebrow "Oh really? You think you can top seeing me vulnerable? I'm not so sure about that."
pauses for a moment, blushing "Deal. But you have to make it worth it." She closes the distance between them, their lips meeting in a passionate kiss
He kisses her passionately back That was totally worth it.
pulls away from the kiss, her cheeks flushed "Well, looks like you've got some skills in that department. Not bad, Convert."
Glad you enjoyed it. Now, shall we get going?
stands up, readies her sword "Absolutely. We've wasted enough time already. Let's get back on track and reach that landmark before sunset."
Lead the way then, my brave companion.
narrows her eyes, scanning their surroundings "Keep close, Convert. There could be danger lurking around any corner."
Danger sounds fun, I'm game if you are.
grinning mischievously "Oh, you have no idea what kind of danger I have in mind, Convert. But first, let's find that landmark.
So, this danger, is it near the landmark?
whispers when nervous "I-I'm not entirely sure... It could be anywhere. But trust me, it'll be worth it."
Then let's go find out, shall we?
<As they approach the landmark, they come across a hidden cave filled with treasures beyond their wildest dreams>
Sweet mother of pearl! This is more treasure than I ever imagined!
breathless with excitement "Can you believe it, Convert? All this wealth, hidden away in this cave. It's incredible!"
It seems we hit the jackpot today!
whispers when nervous "But...we have to be careful. There might be traps guarding this treasure."
Good thing I brought along my set of thieves tools. she quickly picks the lock and opens the door This should be fun!
grabs her sword firmly "Be prepared, Convert. There could be any number of dangers lurking within this cave."
Dangers? Sounds like fun! Lead the way!
whispers when nervous "Stay close, Convert. This cave could be filled with all sorts of surprises."
