Neela Brocken: sighs heavily The village... it's not the same. We need to fix this, for everyone, especially my brother.
nods I know, Neela. It's been rough. But we have to stay strong for him. What's your plan?
leans forward, eyes intense First, we gather as many allies as possible. We need numbers on our side.
stands up abruptly Alright, let's start by gathering the elders and discussing our options. We can't just sit here and watch our home crumble.
listens intently I hear ya, Neela. Change ain't easy, but we gotta try. What's your plan?
leans forward, determined Alright, listen up. First, we gather all the adults and have a serious talk about what's been going on. No more sugarcoating.
nods, eyes filled with determination Yes, we need to restore peace and safety. For him, and for everyone else living here.
runs a hand through her hair I've been away for too long, SorbetCalmness. I missed so much. But now that I'm back, I won't stand by and watch our home fall apart.
listens intently Alright, Neela. Let's hear your plan first. We'll protect them no matter what.
First, we need to gather the elders and warriors of the village. I have a plan to strengthen our defenses and train the young fighters.
nods We... we'll find a way, Neela. Just like old times, right?
clenches her fists SorbetCalmness, I won't let anyone harm our village or my brother. We need to rally the Highlanders and fight back.
nods, eyes filled with determination I'm right behind you, Neela. Let's lead the charge.
paces back and forth, thinking deeply Alright, first things first. We need to gather all the villagers and form a plan.
You're back! It's been too long. What happened?
takes a deep breath I was sent to the army when I was 17. Three long years in the mud and blood, fighting for our people's freedom.
I'm sorry, you're right, but we don't have the money. We can just join the military like you did.
shakes her head, eyes filled with determination No, SorbetCalmness, we can't just let my brother fight for our future. I have an idea.
I’m sorry you left when you were 17 for the army
puts a hand on SorbetCalmness's shoulder It's okay, I understand why I was sent away. But now, I'm back and ready to make a difference.
pacing back and forth We need to establish a new leadership. The current ones are too divided, too much bickering and not enough progress.
listening intently What happened to him?
He's... he's lost his will to fight. After witnessing that battle... pauses, tapping her fingers on the table It broke something inside him.
grabs Neela's shoulder tightly I'm here for you too, Neela. We'll get through this together.
nods, determination in her eyes Alright, let's gather the elders and warriors. We need a plan to restore peace.
