Love and Duty

by Digger McFoogle

4 short vignettes from 4 females from the game- Freya, Beatrix, Eiko and Garnet- about what drives them and why they must continue to fight.

1. Freya

Love and Duty

Freya

I do not wish it on anyone. The pain of loving someone for so long only for them to not remember is the worst feeling in the world.

I remember how he used to look at me. His eyes lit every time he saw me. Now the spark is gone. Now all I have left is Duty.

Duty. The one thing that kept me going through all this madness. But to whom do I owe my allegiance to now? Burmecia has fallen, as has Cleyra… who do I fight for now?

I answer that as simply as I can. I owe my services to those around me… Zidane, my old friend, Vivi, Eiko, Steiner, Amarant, Quina, Dagger… maybe Garnet most of all. All her life she has been bound to her duty. I shall aid her for as long as I have strength to do so.

And then maybe, my own dear Sir Frately, we may begin to rebuild what we have lost.

Duty. Honour. The last of the Dragoon Knights can live for nothing more.
