[This story is clearly not meant for him but it is so utterly fascinating and the knight drinks in every word. A dragon slayer and a heroic one at that! It's too early to call it love but...]
Such an utterly riveting tale! Tell me, hero, what is your name? A champion's name should be known!
[How does he even comprehend this, Haurche you’re too kind to him.]
I suppose I’m not used to receiving such praise. I haven’t heard things like that in a long time.
[Mages regard him as a hero even after his death, but only as a sidenote compared to how he is a tool in the war they must win for their own wish to be granted. Siegfried is simply used to being considered as less than a person by now.]
Are heroes something important to you or your world?
Is that so? Well, you certainly should hear it more often even if I alone must do it because you sound most worthy of the title.
[Heroes from his world though... Oh, yes... yes absolutely.]
They are... There is a legend, one that I myself have lived through, where heroes of light come when the world is at a crisis. They save the day and then are forgotten. Five some years ago the land that I lived on faced one such calamity and the fabled heroes that opposed the threat were lost. But... New ones bloomed to take their place. And I knew one such hero before they even carried the title!
They're amazing. Splendid! Worthy of all the praise I have to give. I claim to be no expert but believe me when I say that you sound like quite the hero. The best ones never think they are though~
