BACK THEN

Transcript:
Norticus: Tell me, Destroyer, do you ever miss the Netherwars?
Inviktor: I miss their simplicity. Killing, taking ground, never giving it a second thought. But I was... different back then.
Norticus: So was I. Though our experiences were as far removed from each other as night is from day.
Inviktor: I suppose so. You commanding armies from on high, me down in the thick of it.
Norticus: Now look at us. Both stripped of rank, branded as traitors, fighting someone else’s war.
Inviktor: It’s always someone else’s war. That much I knew from the start. If I cared about anything, it was the soldiers who fought alongside me.
Norticus: And these mortals who now stand at our flanks? Do you find yourself starting to care for them?
Inviktor: They have proved themselves worthy. Fragile and fleeting, though they may be, these humans have heart.
Inviktor: They throw themselves into danger, overcoming their fear for a cause far bigger than themselves.
Inviktor: I have fought a thousand battles, but I have never seen anything quite like these... “humans.”
Norticus: Nor have I, Inviktor. I thought them all pawns. But inside them dwells the courage of kings.
