Level 40 quote

Watch out! ...Sheesh, lucky for you, my arrow found its mark. Try to keep focused, <player>... Do you expect everyone here to protect you at all costs? What a cozy status to have, O great summoner. A stark contrast to the disposable mercs and ordinary soldiers. I wonder what other fancy treatment you get! Sorry. Forget that. I've just dealt with far too many black-hearted nobles and useless generals in my time. But still, as a mercenary, I couldn't let my employer die before me. It'd leave a stain on my conscience. That's all.

This is a Hoshidan festival... So why the heck did you rope me of all people into it? Ridiculous as it is, guess I can't deny that it's been a learning experience. ...Not like I wanted it, though. Haha! But y'know, even if I still can't say I totally get what makes ninja tick, I do feel a bit closer to them now.
