[This is...wrong. This is unsettling. This...is not a good look. Edelgard keeps herself calm, forcing her emotions...and her disgust...down. She had seen Dimitri give in to his rage in her world, but this was something else. Something oily and wrong, a lurking menace that she'd thought had been drawn out by her surprise actions at the Holy Tomb, not something unrelated.

Dimitri was sick, there was something twisted beneath that princely visage, something that made her recoil inside.]

I suppose so. Those monsters...they're one of many problems facing our people, but if you turn yourself on them, then I have little doubt you can make them pay for their actions.

[It's what he wants to hear, she has no doubt. And she doesn't really doubt that he could do it. What disturbs her is his evident glee at finding something to tear into...and not for the first time she wonders if his transformation into a monster was something that started well before his arrival here.]

I do not have my notes here. But I can give you the information that I remember, soon.

[Again what he wants to hear, she thinks. But also something that might...perhaps...help his world.]

WRAPPIN THIS UP

[Dimitri listens, captivated at once by the sound of her voice and the imagined sensation of bones breaking in his hands. He can almost hear it, the wailing of souls long damned in Duscur and the screams of those he'll torment in their name.

His smile doesn't falter, and when she offers information, he nods.] Of course.

When I'm able to record it. [Still rigid - like a drawn bowstring about to snap - Dimitri turns back to the children at play. He watches the pair pass by in front of them...

He'll avenge them too, by doing this.

When the two have run around a corner of hedge, Dimitri stands.] Thank you, El. I cannot express how much this has lifted from my shoulders.

[A small bow, and then he gestures for her to stand too.] There isn't anything to see here other than our younger selves continuing their game. I won't rush you, but I am going to take my leave.
