Oh Kotono, if there is issue with the language in this post, yell and I'll edit it.

->Open Spoiler<-

>Be bronze archer in the Prince's army.
>Hunt for some meat, bring it back to barracks for cooking.
>Wonder why the only cook in this army is Mortimer when the majority of members are women.
>Grumble about Prince's latest antics with other like-minded men.
>Lean back on bench and touch a damp spot.
>Conrad: "That smells of woman. Who had sex here?"
>Awkward silence. Everyone's thinking the same thing: 'who else?'
>Attempt to take everyone's mind off by mentioning tomorrow's activities.
>Mortimer: "We're gonna drag that lad away from all his pussy and party up!"

>One boat trip and a manly brawl later, get a pile of booze drops.
>Prince brings out his secret stash of Millennium Wine.
>Only silvers and above are invited to drink.
>Crash in bed early, none of the other Irons and Bronzes wanted to hold a consolation party.
>Next evening, continue the grumbling from last time.
>Mortimer: "I won't allow you to diss the Prince! That man is alright."
>What happened at that party?

>Be bronze archer in the Prince's army.
>Deployed in toxic swamp today, next to new recruit: Spica.
>It's her first mission in this army.
>Don't get hopes up, you know the inevitable future.
>Shoot down gargoyles and such, at least this is enjoyable.
>Spica having a hard time with her frail constitution.
>Prince doesn't even show up for this mission: "there's nowhere for me to stand"
>Be a sympathetic ear to Spica badmouthing Prince for sending them out here.
>Spica just shot down a dragon. It dropped a diamond as it died.
>Cough cough, can't take these toxic fumes anymore, where are the healers?
>Just before going unconscious, get relieved to make room for a healer.

>Back at the barracks, you wake up to see Christopher tending to your health.
>Couldn't it have been Alyssa or Dorca at least?
>Thank him for his work and ask what happened to Spica.
>Christopher: "In her room, being attended to."
>The way he said it already gives bad vibes.
>Sure enough, there's a trail of flowers near her room. You can still smell the swamp's acrid fumes on them.
>Prince comes out of the room, you hide.
>A while later, Spica comes out too. You ask her how she feels.
>She's gushing in a very roundabout way that the Prince may not be as bad as she first thought.
>Special mention for the diamond he just gifted her.
>Isn't that the same diamond that dropped from her own kill?
