Scenario:Lady Grey and Nezahualpilli - Veterans Looking Back

Veterans Looking Back

(Captain) and company arrive on an island to do some monster hunting. Nezahualpilli and Lady Grey are proud, yet somehow lonely, to see their young crewmates growing so strong and independent. When an enormous monster sneaks up on them, the two powerhouses make short work of it. It seems these veterans still have plenty to teach their young friends.

The crew arrives on an island and accepts a job to take out a few monsters.

(Captain) handles the monster onslaught with ease.

Monster: Grrooo...

Vyrn: All right, we've taken care of the monsters here!

Lyria: All thanks to (Captain)! Let's check over that way next.

Nezahualpilli: Wait! Be on your guard—there's still something here...

Vyrn: Are you sure? Wait... You're right! I see it, hiding behind that tree!

Monster: Groooarrr!

Lyria: It's coming! (Captain), can you handle it?

Nezahualpilli: Whew...

Vyrn: Haha! These monsters don't stand a chance!

Lyria: Not with (Captain) on the job. But we can't let our guard down now!

Nezahualpilli stops in his tracks and watches from behind as the crew marches along triumphantly.

Nezahualpilli: Hmm...

Lady Grey: Hehehe.... What's the matter, O king of the hawks?

Nezahualpilli: Hm? Ah, Lady Grey.

Nezahualpilli: Pay me no mind... It's nothing.

Lady Grey: How cold... Considering how long we've been together in this crew now, I wish you'd share what you're thinking.

Nezahualpilli: Well, if you insist... I was merely getting sentimental.

Lady Grey: Oh dear, are you embarrassed? Let me guess what got you feeling maudlin.

Lady Grey: Seeing the young ones mature so fast makes you proud, yet somehow lonely... Does that sound about right?

Nezahualpilli: Yes... You see right through me. It is as you say.

Nezahualpilli: Sigh... It seems I'm the one letting down my guard, despite the fact that we find ourselves in this monster-infested area.

Lady Grey: Haha... I do know how you feel though. Those kids have grown so much since we first met.

Lady Grey: Don't you think so? I still remember when everything was so new to them that every little snag set them aflutter.

Nezahualpilli: Indeed... It seems like so long ago that I was invaluable to them in battle as their shield.

Lady Grey: They've truly come into their own. It's a lonely feeling, not being so needed, isn't it?

Nezahualpilli: Hahaha! But as their friend and ally, I am nonetheless proud of them! Well then, shall we get a move on?

Lady Grey: Let's go. I'm pretty sure they made a right turn here.

Lady Grey: Oh! Hawk King, look.

Monster: Grooooaaarrrr!

Nezahualpilli: That's a big one... And it looks to be headed toward (Captain) and the others!

Lady Grey: Yes. If they're already in combat, they'll be attacked from both sides...

Lady Grey and Nezahualpilli silently nod to each other, then dash toward the giant monster.

Nezahualpilli: You won't go any farther than this! Tremble at the might of my clan's power! Hrraaaahhh!

Monster: Grooooaaarrrr!

Nezahualpilli: Ungh... We can handle this! Lady Grey, now!

Lady Grey: A gift from the underworld, just for you.

Monster: Groooooaaar!

Nezahualpilli: Yaaaah!

Lady Grey: Haaaaa!

Vyrn: Hey, what are you two doing here? We already defeated the monster we came here for!

Vyrn: Whoa! Wh-what's this giant monster doing here?

On their way back, (Captain) and the others find an enormous beast lying at Nezahualpilli's and Lady Grey's feet.

Nezahualpilli: Hahaha! It was a tough one! But no match for a king!

Lyria: Wow! You defeated it with only the two of you...

Lady Grey: Hehe... A little backbreaking work is nice sometimes.

Lyria: Oh no! You broke your back! We have to get you to a doctor right away!

Lady Grey: Oh, Lyria, it's just a figure of speech. Nothing actually broken, I assure you.

Nezahualpilli: Hahaha! I suppose we still have things to teach them!

Lady Grey: Hehe. It's nice to know we're still needed.

Nezahualpilli and Lady Grey have been with (Captain) almost since this grand journey began.

They always have and always will continue to watch over the crew.
