[Yeager hesitates for a moment, like he's not really sure... but then he nods.]
Casey was the leader of a group of knights. Ten years ago, there was a war against some truly terrifying large monsters. Her brigade faced off against one of these creatures. She... died in the fight.
That was all I knew for the past ten years. I didn't know how she died, but Raven... He saw her death. He was able to explain what happened to me, and he told me that she died fighting to protect him, all while smiling.
[That isn't exactly what Raven said, and that isn't an exact depiction of what happened, but it's as close as he can get right now.]
It... was relieving to know that she didn't curse her circumstances even at the end. She always was an incredible person.
He wonders if this is the same war against the Entelexia that Alexei mentioned before. Which, you know, he never wants to meet...regardless, it's unfortunate because this woman really did look and sounded like a wonderful person. Sometimes, it feels like it's the good ones who get taken away first. ]
...She sounds like one for certain.
Not many people would be able to hold their heads up high, doing what they can, and give a smile when they faced their end.
[ He can think of only one person who would from his world, and that person died here. ]
[ You know, he just figured things happened the way they did on his end because they bonded and became really good friends. But it seems a little more involved than what he anticipated. ]
Oh. [ ... ] You owe him because of what he told you about her, then? Is that what you mean?
[Hmm. He doesn't want to get into The Tragic Backstory, but there's still other things to discuss.]
We weren't exactly on good terms back home, at least from what he remembers. I've never really had anything against their little group, they just kept getting in my way... And I recently decided to assist them in the hopes that our goals would align.
[So basically he's helping and hurting as he damn well pleases, as you do.]
He was rightfully quite wary around me initially! I'm not entirely sure when things changed, though...
[Was it when we got the bar. It was probably when we got the bar.]

[Brave and stalwart even to the bitter end.]

I owe quite a lot to her... and Raven now as well, I suppose.
[Which... sort of explains what happened at the trial without explaining anything, thanks Yeager.]
