Welcome back to the Xenoblade Heart to Hearts series! Today, we enter our final set of chats in Satorl Marsh, and the Hero of Sword Valley returns. It's Dunban again everybody. So, what does he have to say with our favorite dragons this time? Read on to discover...
Heart to Heart 45: The Beauty Underneath
Participants: Spyro and Dunban
Location: Zaldania Falls
Affinity: Lavender
Introduction
Spyro: And here I thought Twilight Falls was the height of natural beauty! They've got nothing on this place!
Dunban: Ether's comforting glow can do that.
Spyro: I'll never be able to look at the old place the same way again. Well... okay, that's honestly not true.
Pass/Pass
Dunban: It sounds like this place has significance to you.
Spyro: It was the first place I'd actually seen the world after three years sealed away.
Dunban: Sealed away?
Spyro: That's a story unto itself for another time. But in that moment, I realized exactly what I was fighting for.
Dunban: The beauty of the world at large?
Spyro: That and... something else...
Dunban: (Puts it together) That's when you first really saw Cynder, wasn't it?
Spyro: (Blushing, or whatever the dragon equivalent is) It's that obvious, eh?
Dunban: Ah, young love.
Spyro: Can we please keep this between us though? I'm... still not comfortable telling her yet.
Dunban: My lips are sealed.

Dunban: Sealed away?
Spyro: That's a story unto itself for another time. But in that moment, I realized exactly what I was fighting for.
Dunban: The beauty of the world at large?
Spyro: That and... something else...
Dunban: I think I can see it. You saw Cynder, didn't you? With the glistening waterfall reflecting against her scales and the moonlight in her eyes...
Spyro: Dude, quiet! She might hear you!
Dunban: What's wrong with that?
Spyro: One, she'll think you're hitting on her. And two, I haven't told her about it yet. Can we please keep this between us, at least for now?
Dunban: Sure. For now...
Spyro: Thanks.

Fail/Pass
Dunban: Well, having not seen this "Twilight Falls", I wouldn't say that. Besides, it sounds quite special to you.
Spyro: You can say that again.
Dunban: If I may inquire...
Spyro: No worries, Dunban. You can ask.
Dunban: So, what is it about this place?
Spyro: Helps that it's the first place that Cynder and I saw upon exiting the old Catacombs. Yeah, that's a story for another day. It was the most beautiful sight I've ever seen.
Dunban: (Picking up on something else) That's not all... is it?
Spyro: You're a smart guy, Dunban. You've probably figured it out. So, can we just keep it between ourselves?
Dunban: Sure..

Spyro: You can say that again.

Spyro: No worries, Dunban. You can ask.
Dunban: So, what is it about this place?
Spyro: Helps that it's the first place that Cynder and I saw upon exiting the old Catacombs. Yeah, that's a story for another day. It was the most beautiful sight I've ever seen.
Dunban: I'm guessing the sight wasn't the Falls.
Spyro: Do you have to be so obvious about it?
Dunban: I'm not the one being obvious.
Spyro: Can we keep it between us regardless?
Dunban: You've got to tell her eventually. But for now, we will.
Spyro: Thanks...
