. . . Why didn't you go with him?

He didn't let me know.

So he made his decision . . .

Yeah.

He's happier these days.

[ And that's the important part, isn't it? ]

Is he? How do you know that?

We're working together again. As Sage's Wizards, not bandits.

Oh? Then you've made up. What does it mean to be that?

Means we have to fight the Great Calamity every year.

You mentioned that before . . . Just what is the Great Calamity?

Once a year the moon tries to kill us.

Why does the moon want to kill you?

[Like... "I dunno" in a noise.]

[The world of wizards is too strange.]

You don't even know why you're fighting? How troublesome . . .

If we don't fight we die, so it ain't like we got a choice.

[mahoyaku WHERE IS THIS LORE.]

So much for stability.

He managed for a few years.

[a century.]

No rest for the weary, huh? What do you do for the rest of the year, then?

Get called on to deal with the shit the Great Calamity caused. Monsters gettin' unsealed, that kinda thing.

Hmph. It's always monsters with this sort of thing. They should just sit still and leave everyone be.

I fuckin' sealed that shit centuries ago, what the hell was it doing causin' trouble?

You know how it goes. If it can break free, it will.

[He sighs.]

So troublesome.

It had been a couple centuries... Annoyin'.
