I'm eating dinner with Meryl.
#
<name "Darx">
"Hey, I had a question."
#
<sprite "ta02a000.agf" 4 4 11>
<name "Meryl" "!DA0259">
"Yes?"
#
<name "Darx">
"Didn't you ever think about attacking the
 Overlord or running away?"
#
<name "Meryl" "!DA0260">
"Bgpht!"
#
<removesprite -1 11>
She spits out her food.
#
<name "Darx">
"Don't do that.
 It's disgusting."
#
<sprite "ta02a006.agf" 4 4 11>
<name "Meryl" "!DA0261">
"D-Don't blurt out insane things!"
#
<name "Darx">
"Is it really that insane?
 You'd just die if you did nothing.
 It couldn't hurt anything to fight."
#
<name "Meryl" "!DA0262">
"Hmm.
 Which do you think is better; a quick death
 or being torn to pieces?"
#
<name "Darx">
"...I see.
 Then if you went against her, you'd be torn
 to shreds?"
#
<sprite "ta02a009.agf" 4 4 12>
<name "Meryl" "!DA0263">
"Correct."
#
<name "Darx">
"But that means she's an absolute ruler."
#
<name "Meryl" "!DA0264">
"For humans, what the king says is absolute."
#
<name "Darx">
"...You've got a point, but if he ordered 
 someone's death, they wouldn't just accept 
 it without trying to fight back."
#
<name "Meryl" "!DA0265">
"Even if by doing so, they might cause a 
 massacre?"
#
<name "Darx">
"...Touche.
 Sorry I brought it up."
#
<name "Meryl" "!DA0266">
"Then can I get a new plate?"
#
<name "Darx">
"Please."
