Hoo-ya! Take that, meanie! Now, stay down, stupid bandit! Ya! Celeste wins again!
(Sam enters the scene.)
Hey, kid! Training your axe skills again?
Hey, mister! Yeah, I gotta get stronger! Need to do my best and to keep my friends safe.
Good for you. You like axes, it seems.
Yeah, axes are the best! Who wants a boring old sword anyway? I can chop wood with this if I need to! When was the last time a swordfighter chopped up wood with a sword?
Yeah, axes are really cool. They're also fun to swing through the air.
I know, right? Whoosh, whoosh! They're so cool! I tried to get Michael to use an axe, but he just sticks to his lance. I never really got the appeal.
The spear is a good weapon, though. I don't use one myself, but yes, axes are great. What got you to use axes in the first place?
My mom. This was her axe. She was the one who taught me and Michael how to use our respective weapons.
I see.
Yeah. That's why I'm going to be the best axe swinger around one day! They'll sing songs about Celeste the Invincible! And her trusty sidekick Michael.
I look forward to it. Keep improving, kiddo!
Thanks, mister. You too!
(Sam leaves the scene.)
Okay, you bandit, now where were we?

Heyyy, Michael, there's a store nearby.
You don't have something bad planned do you?
No, it's a very nice store and I want to get us both something.
Is it another fireworks store? Last time we went to one, we had to clean up the entire thing.
No, it's a gem store. There's these gem pairs that mean "Best Friends Forever". I want to take you with me and see if we can get them.
O-Oh, well, thank you. I guess I'll go with you. Is it an outdoor store?
Yeah, aren't gem stores like that usually? Are you worried about seeing a lot of people? We can go to the smaller stores first if you aren't comfortable.
N-no, that's not it. It-
Then, let's go!
(Celeste leaves the scene.)
W-Wait!
(Michael chases after her.)

Michael, I have a question.
What's the matter?
Is your armor too heavy for you? You've never been particularly strong, and I'd be upset if something were to happen to you.
The armor is okay, I'm... not having any trouble with it.
Really? Hup!
(Celeste lifts Michael up and holds him in a bridal carry.)
Wh-whoa!
I'm taller than you, older than you, and still physically stronger than you.
P-Please put me down. The armor is fine.
Is that so? I'll have to carry you with it on to see if it is. If I can, then that means you'll be fine.
The armor's light!
Alright, I get it. Let me put you down.
(Celeste puts Michael back down.)
But if it really is, could I wear it?
W-Well, um- I-I'll be back!
(Michael runs off.)
I hope he's really fine in all that armor. I wouldn't want him to strain himself.

*sigh* What am I going to do? I need to find my mother when this is all over, but how will I know if she'll be okay?
(Michael enters the scene.)
Celeste?
Oh, Michael. Uh... The beach is pretty nice, isn't it? Check out this pearl I found!
There's something wrong, isn't there? Please don't hide it.
How long were you here?
I came here a while ago to get resources. I heard you talking to yourself about your mother. It's weird seeing you so upset.
You don't have to worry about me. I'm fine. Speaking of her, remember how she said you'd be good at using lances? Turns out she was right.
Huh, yeah. My mother, on the other hand, was against it. She was always teaching me that I must be polite whenever I can. Needless to say, she thought using weapons wasn't "polite". Still, that didn't stop her from letting us go to each other's houses. Even if you were a little... energetic.
Huh, really? I remember you were often there for my axe training. I even let you try giving it a couple of swings.
Mm-hm. It was fun. With that, I guess what I'm trying to say is that if there is anything bothering you, you can tell me. We're friends, after all.
... Hey, Michael, why don't we do some stone skipping?
H-Huh?
Here, take one!
(Celeste hands him a rock.)
B-but-
No use in dwelling on something we can't control. So, come on! Let's have some fun!
Er, alright.

This forest looks familiar... Celeste?
Oh, hey again, Michael. Looking for more resources again? I was just looking for my axe. How do I lose something like that?
It's not the craziest thing you lost.
Hey! It's not like I lost you! That would be sad.
Ha, true. But I'll help. I'd love to, in fact.
Some time later...
Hey, does this place look familiar to you?
You too? Like the time we first met when I saved you from bullies?
Mm-hm. They told me to go in, otherwise they'd said they do something to my mom.
It was a good thing I showed up when I did, then. I came in, beat them senseless, and they ran away. You were crying, so we just started talking to calm you down. I remember telling you about how the forest wasn't that scary, and a bunch of other stuff. And then we both said that our favorite color-
	Was green!
If you didn't do that I'd be just an errand boy for them, and I wouldn't have thought of joining the knights. I've got to thank you for that.
You already have. After that, I took you back to my house. My mom wasn't sure how she felt about me going to the forest by myself. But she was glad I rescued someone.
Well, can't really say I'd blame her. We were pretty dirty. You also begged her to let me stay the next two days.
Ah... I wish I could find her soon.
Hey, when this is all over, we'll go find your mom and ask her if... if we could start dating.
Michael...
Then you can actually reading the books I gave you.
What do you mean?! I do read them.
Oh boy, if my mother were still around...
You skim through them.
I do not! I-- Oh! My axe. Let's go!
