Dragoon explains the secret of his jumping ability.
Cast Appearing[]
Setting[]
Script[]
| Dragoon | The secret of my jumping technique is an ancient technique. Also, a secret. |
| Red Mage | See? That explains itself! |
| Thief | Or, alternately, it doesn't explain a goddamned thing. |
| Red Mage | No, not actually, but details aren't important. Could be an ancient pact made with the spirits of the air. |
| Dragoon | Nope! No, wait, that's it exactly. In an age long past, a horrible race of pointy-eared jerks ruled all the world with their army of dragons. |
| Thief | They sound sympathetic. And handsome. |
| Dragoon | No one could oppose them. No one until a warrior-- |
| Thief | Besought the very spirits of the air, yadda yadda, now the jumping. |
| Dragoon | Skipping the epic history parts, yes, that's accurate. |
| Red Mage | So what happened? Why are you the last? |
| Dragoon | Jumping a thousand feet into the air to put a spear through the throat of a dragon isn't as safe as it sounds. Sure, ethereal forces guide you unerringly to your target, but dragons have claws, fire, and a lot of evil. |
| Fighter | No way, a dragon gave us superpowers. It's great! |
| Dragoon | Which dragon? |
