Optional Conversation # 15

Disc: 3

Location: Village of Zoah (Liberal District) Inside Aldo's house

Characters: Aldo and Edge

Dialogue:

(Looks like he's interested in the gun
I found at the valley.)

{Aldo:}
Hey!? That gun...
belongs to Radgam!

{Edge:}
I found it in the valley...
next to someone who was killed.

{Aldo:}
I see... he's gone...

{Aldo:}
To tell you the truth, I was
once a hunter like you.

{Edge:}
You were a hunter?

{Aldo:}
Yeah, I was on Radgam's crew.
We went to the valley and were
ambushed by a horde of monsters.
Everyone was ripped to pieces.
I escaped to this town...
Since then, I've never been able
to touch another weapon.

{Edge:}
Why is that?

{Aldo:}
When I close my eyes, I can still
see the monsters. I can still hear
their screams. All my friends... dead.
.....

{Aldo:}
I did the right thing by
giving up, right?

{Edge:}
I'm very sorry.

{Aldo:}
I'll be O.K.
Maybe you'll end up in Zoah, too.

{Edge:}
What do you mean?

{Aldo:}
In this town you don't need to
fight. You can just stay here and
earn a living. It's safer that way.

{Edge:}
I see why you quit... but...

{Aldo:}
But what?
What do you know, kid?

{Edge:}
My friends were killed too...
Many times I faced death and
I'm still fighting.
You should keep fighting too!

{Aldo:}
If you want to fight, go ahead!
You're just gonna die a horrible
death anyway.

{Aldo:}
...You again?

{Edge:}
I'm sorry about the other day...
Maybe I was too hard on you.

{Aldo:}
It's all right.
You should leave this town.

{Edge:}
Why?

{Aldo:}
If you stay here too long,
you'll end up like me.
There isn't any fighting here.
It's easy to stay, but it's
hard to leave.
