Lucius & Priscilla
Level C:
LUCIUS: | You... You are with us, aren't you? I am Lucius. I am...delighted
to make your acquaintance. |
PRISCILLA: | I am Priscilla. It is an honor, sir. |
LUCIUS: | Lady...Priscilla...? Are you... Might you be...of House Cornwell? |
PRISCILLA: | Hm? Have we met...somewhere before? |
LUCIUS: | No... I have just heard your name in passing, I believe. Lord Raven
has... Forgive me... To you, he is Raymond, is he not? |
PRISCILLA: | Are you a friend of my brother, Raymond? |
LUCIUS: | Yes. I served House Cornwell. Raymond has told me of you. He said
that he once had a sister who was sent to live with the count of
Caerleon. |
PRISCILLA: | So... My brother speaks of me? |
LUCIUS: | Have you seen Raymond recently? |
PRISCILLA: | Yes... He is the same as always... He is a fine man. |
Level B:
PRISCILLA: | Lucius... |
LUCIUS: | Ah, Priscilla... |
PRISCILLA: | About...what I asked you earler... You said my brother spoke to
you about me... |
LUCIUS: | Yes. |
PRISCILLA: | What...exactly did he say? |
LUCIUS: | Ah, yes... That you were his younger sister, Priscilla, who left
Cornwell when still young... |
PRISCILLA: | And...what else does he say? |
LUCIUS: | What else? That you were close as children... That you were often
in ill health...and that you were very shy... |
PRISCILLA: | Was there nothing else? For example... That I was cute when I was
small... Or that he had made a sacred promise to me long ago... Or
that he often thought of me after I left? |
LUCIUS: | Lady Priscilla? Are you all right? |
PRISCILLA: | ...Yes. It's nothing. Please forget about it. But...Lucius? |
LUCIUS: | Yes? |
PRISCILLA: | You are--how can I say this?--beautiful. Your face is like a
woman's... No... Your face is even more beautiful than that of a
woman... ...I'm sure even a few lords must have fallen for you... |
LUCIUS: | You...must understand. I am...a man. As a child, I was often
teased for my appearance, and I have never once profited from it.
Perhaps you meant to imply...otherwise? |
PRISCILLA: | ...... I meant nothing. I... You must excuse me... |
LUCIUS: | ...Lady Priscilla. |
Level A:
LUCIUS: | Lady Priscilla... |
PRISCILLA: | Lucius... What is the matter...? You look so serious... |
LUCIUS: | Forgive me, ...Lady Priscilla. You are a noble of House Cornwell.
I apologize for my rudeness earlier... |
PRISCILLA: | Why should you apologize to me? |
LUCIUS: | When we last spoke... I said some things...that I thought may have
offended you. |
PRISCILLA: | You did...no such thing. Did you come all the way here just to
apologize to me? |
LUCIUS: | I am in the service of House Cornwell. I should think of you as my
liege. |
PRISCILLA: | But now I claim House Caerleon. House Cornwell is...no more. |
LUCIUS: | ...... Yes... So...you know. |
PRISCILLA: | So you tried to spare my feelings by not telling me? And even after
the disgrace of Cornwell, you still choose to stay by my brother's
side? |
LUCIUS: | Yes... |
PRISCILLA: | I can see why you were such an indispensable member of House
Cornwell. So...I think you have no need to apologize as a vassal
would... |
LUCIUS: | Lady Priscilla... Can you please tell me something? Why, when we
last met... |
PRISCILLA: | Yes, I... Please do not trouble yourself over it. I was merely
perturbed by some trivial matter... I mean...you... |
LUCIUS: | Yes? |
PRISCILLA: | I left House Cornwell when I was only six years old... And how long
were you in service to Cornwell? |
LUCIUS: | That would be some ten years now. When Cornwell was torn asunder
two years ago, Lord Raymond and I joined the Caelin army as
soldiers for hire. |
PRISCILLA: | Yes... You see? You went to Cornwell after I left. And you have
been with my brother ever since... I had only six years with him,
but you have had more than ten. I am a little...jealous. |
LUCIUS: | Ah...Lady Priscilla...? |
PRISCILLA: | ...It is nothing. Forget it. |
