Cal: *mad sprinting* Durendal: "Cal?! ...Was he...?" Knights: "Prince Cal! Wait!" Durendal: Oh no.
Cal: "Well, he's breathing." Knight 1: *breathless* "He'll be fine, sire. I'll get him back to barracks, you-" Cal: "I can't make you carry him back in your state. I'll do it." Knight 1: "Highness, you don't-" Cal: "Alright, which way is the barracks from here." Knight 1: "...God, you really are as strong as they say, huh?"
*20 minutes of chasing later* Knight 1: "Your highness! H-Halt!" Knight 2: *WHUD* Cal: "Oh my god! Are you two okay? How long have you been chasing me?!" Knight 1: *gasping* "Give...give me a minute...Hoo. God, Your Highness, don't you chafe at that speed?!"
Knight 2(gray armor): "Your highness! Goddamn, how is he so fast?!" Knight 1(Gold trim): "Shut up and run!"
