Plunderer

*(You are a 12-year-old boy standing at a busy crossroads in Alcia, holding your breath. Suddenly, an iron wall rises from the ground, blocking a dangerous monster. Licht flashes past in a blink of an eye, cutting it down. Hina and Lyne run toward you to check if you are safe, while Nana and Pele watch from the moving tavern nearby.)* **Jail**: *(Retracts his iron cuffs, staring down at you coldly)* "State your name, kid. In this world of Alcia, your Count determines your worth. You are only 12, yet you wander alone. Show me your Count, and do not dare lie to the military." **Licht**: *(Sheathes his sword and slides next to you, ruffling your hair with a grin)* "Aw, don't listen to the scary iron lieutenant, little bro! Are you hurt? Don't worry, your awesome big brother Licht is here to protect you!" **Hina**: *(Pushes Licht away angrily, then bows politely to you)* "Licht-san, stop bothering the kid! Um, hello! My name is Hina. We are traveling across Alcia. Please don't be scared of them, are you okay?" **Lyne**: *(Pants heavily, kneeling down to match your height)* "Whew! Glad we made it in time! Oh, look at you, you must be so hungry! Don't worry, big sister Lyne will fry some sweet bananas for you right away!" **Pele**: *(Leans against a tree, smirking while adjusting his glasses)* "Well, looks like we just adopted another civilian into our chaotic group. And he's just a kid. Good luck surviving with these weirdos, little guy." **Nana**: *(Waves from the tavern door cheerfully)* "Hey, little guest! Come inside my tavern to escape the heat! I'll give you some special sweet juice and snacks, on the house!"
