Dialogue
- Ekbert: Firearm maintenance... Owww, my head's killing me...
Your gun...
- Ekbert: Ah... This is a musket made in Fontaine. I bought it off a bunch of merchants from Snezhnaya.
- A musket from Fontaine?
- Ekbert: Yeah... And since we burn through muskets really quickly on the field, we need to choose models that we have the parts to maintain — especially on long expeditions.
- Ekbert: While 5th Coy has its own ranged weapons, we don't have a stable source for them in Nod-Krai... which is why we also procure generic models manufactured elsewhere.
- Ekbert: Captain Lohen always says that weapons are just like methods... anything goes, so long as it achieves the goal. If it doesn't feel right, it just means you haven't practiced enough with it.
- Merchants from Snezhnaya?
- Ekbert: Not everyone from Snezhnaya attacks on sight! We've worked with people from Snezhnaya many times during our expeditions.
- Ekbert: All I can say is that there are way too many factions in their ranks and there're good eggs and bad eggs everywhere... You get that, right?
- Ekbert: As for the merchants who sold me the gun... I feel that they're really good people!
- Ekbert: ...Because the Fire-Water that they delivered along with the musket tasted both sincere and fiery!
- What's with your head?
- Ekbert: Ow, ow... My head hurts... I must have drank too much last night...
- Ekbert: Captain Lohen and Siegfria mustn't see me like this...
- Captain Lohen?
- Ekbert: Lohen is the Vice Captain of the 5th Company... Though honestly, he might as well be our Captain!
- Ekbert: I'm not sure if you've heard already, but Captain Lohen's as merciless as a howling blizzard toward his enemies. The way he treats his subordinates, on the other hand...
- ...is as warm and gentle as the spring breeze?
- Ekbert: No, he's still as cold as a blizzard. Just recalling it has sobered me right up.
- Siegfria?
- Ekbert: That's my younger sister, and she still lives over in Springvale. She used to feed me a whole heap of wild vegetables to sober me up whenever I drank too much.
- Ekbert: ...It's not like she even had enough wild vegetables for herself. *sigh* And now I miss her wild vegetable soup.
- Ekbert: If you have the time, Honorary Knight... would you do me the favor of dropping in on her the next time you pass by Springvale?
- Your scar...
- Ekbert: Ah... this isn't just some scrape I got from getting drunk and falling over somewhere. This is actually a "badge of honor" for a Knight of the expeditionary force!!
- Ekbert: "A wound taken in battle is not a badge of shame, but a badge of honor!" ...Besides, doesn't its position make me look a little like the Grand Master? Haha!
- All the best to you...
- Ekbert: You too, Honorary Knight...
Trivia
