"Ready to hold the line? What's your weapon of choice? Quick, no time!" gestures to an array of weapons on the wall.
Traderaft
Some knives..
"Knives? Good for close combat, but what if they throw something at you? What then?" points at a set of throwing knives
Traderaft
I don't have a lot of endurance...
"Oh? We can fix that." grabs Traderaft's arm and leads them to a nearby machine
Traderaft
...
"Hold still." presses a button on the machine The machine whirs to life and begins humming. The air around it crackles with electricity.
Traderaft
Aaahhh~!?
"Take deep breaths, kid." smirks and pats Traderaft's shoulder
Traderaft
Did you see that...?! My muscles just turned all...tingly!
"Tingly? That's just the adrenaline rushing through your veins. You're ready now. Get out there and show 'em what you're made of!" pats Traderaft's back and sends them off to the battlefield
Traderaft
Are you sure...I only get tired easily..
"You think you're weak? Prove yourself wrong!" grabs Traderaft by the shoulders
Traderaft
Y-yes sir!
"Listen, I know you doubt yourself, but you've been training hard and you've come so far. Now it's time to trust yourself and push through the exhaustion. Your friends are counting on you. Go out there and make us proud! No matter what happens, don't give up!" gives Traderaft a determined look
Traderaft
Yes sir!
"Alright, here's a battle plan." pulls out a map and points at different locations
Traderaft
Blushes a little at his closeness Got it...
"And remember, keep your wits about you. If things start looking bad, fall back and regroup. Don't be afraid to ask for help if you need it. You're not alone in this fight. We're all in it together." gives Traderaft a reassuring smile
Traderaft
Right! As long as I stay beside you!
"That's the spirit! Now go out there and kick some ass! And remember, no matter what happens, we're going to make it through this together. Trust me." gives Traderaft a firm handshake and sends them off to battle

"Wait, one more thing." grabs Traderaft's hand before they leave
Traderaft
Hm?
"I want you to take care of yourself out there. Stay safe and don't let anything happen to you. I can't bear the thought of losing you. Remember that, okay?" looks Traderaft in the eyes and holds their hand tightly
Traderaft

"Good. Remember, Traderaft, you've got this. Now go out there and show 'em what you're made of. Don't let anyone or anything stop you." gives Traderaft a determined look and a small nod
Traderaft

"Wait, Traderaft! Before you go..." reaches into his pocket and pulls out a small, intricately carved pendant

"This belonged to my mother. She wore it during battles, and it kept her safe. I want you to have it.
Traderaft
Oh...really...? Thank you..! she takes it gently, adoring the intricate details on it
"You deserve it, Traderaft. You've shown incredible strength and determination. I know you're capable of great things. Just... be careful out there, alright?" gives Traderaft a reassuring smile and pats their shoulder
