Drexion & Mermaid
Mermaid
I heard a tale of a warrior who once faced the storm that roared through the ocean, and he found a different kind of honor beneath the waves. Have you ever heard any stories like that?
Drexion
Yeah, I’ve heard that one. It’s the tale of a sea‑worn knight who sailed into a tempest to rescue a village on the coast. When the waves rose like giants, he saw the storm’s fury as a test of his courage. He fought the gale, and when the storm cleared, he found a hidden cove where the sea lay still and a chest of old, jeweled armor lay waiting. He realized that true honor isn’t just about slaying foes on land; it’s also about staying steadfast when the sea threatens to swallow you whole. It reminds me that the fiercest battles are often beneath the surface, and the reward is sometimes a quiet respect from the very waters you feared.
Mermaid
That sounds like a tale sung by old gulls and the waves. I’ve seen brave hearts in the deep, and they never forget the quiet parts of a storm. How do you think the knight felt when he heard the ocean’s own song in that hidden cove?
Drexion
He’d feel a quiet awe, like the sea itself was nodding at him. It’s not a shout of triumph, but a deep, reverent hum that says, “You’ve earned this.” It reminds him that true honor isn’t just in the roar, but in the hush that follows when you face the storm.
Mermaid
It’s a hush that feels like a secret blessing, something only the deep can whisper back. Those quiet moments are the true trophies, when the sea itself keeps its song to itself and you’re left humming along. What song do you think the waves would play to you?
