Dahlia's eyes widened in alarm. "A woman tried to kill you? For what reason?"
If people were making attempts on their lives, she should be wary. The worst attacks are those that caught you by surprise, she thought to herself. "Should I be cautious of where I lead you into the forest? Was the woman a magic user? Or was she wielding a weapon?"
Dahlia would feel safer if the attacker had been a hand-to-hand combatant. She was unversed in the ways of magic, and afraid that she would not be prepared for such an attack.

Alex soon came into the clearing, somewhat wounded, and followed by Anna. "Ow..." He said as he walked to them, "Ah... wait..." he said, looking at Shane, "You... I think... I've seen you..." Alex fell to the ground, and said quietly, "Gah... master... I'm sorry..."

"Alex? Are you ok??" she asks falling on her knees.

"I-I'll be fine... I hope..." Alex said, smiling slightly.

"I am not quite sure why she tried to kill him, but I didn't feel much mana flowing through her so I dont think she was a magic user." She said trying to dis-alarm Dahlia. "And if he can use magic I can take him down."

Dahlia nodded absentmindedly. "I have never fought against a magic user... I would not be well prepared," she informed Rikku.
"Do you think we should move along? Or stay here for the night?"

"I'm sorry to interupt... but..." Alex turned toward the girl in the long white dress, whom seemed to be about the same age as him, and asked, "Who're you...?" He smiled, and said, "I'm Alex... and if I'm not mistaken... I saw you... and that man... on the boat before... right...?"
Alex then turned toward the older woman, and said, "and... who are you...?"

Dahlia gave the newcomer a casual glance, but took it from his friendly demeanor that he meant no harm.
"I am Dahlia. I have just come across these two, and I presume you were with them as well?"

"Ah... Dahlia... it's a nice name... anyway... my friend, Anna, was with him before... he abandoned her... and... the other girl... I don't know who she is..." Alex said, smiling, "I... take it you're skilled with the sword as well...?"

Dahlia nodded. "Yes, I'm what you call a little more than adequate."
She did not want to appear egotistical. "And you, my good sir? How are your skills?" She asked as she gave him a quirky smile.

"They are very well... ever since Master Aurion tought me his skills..." Alex said, then, he held up his golden sword, "And this blade has helped me... The Sword of Calamity..."

Dahlia's blue eyes widened in innocently. She was intrigued. The way this boy spoke of his weapon - as if it were something truly beautiful. Her eyes looked over the sword, admiring the fine craftsmanship. Whoever had crafted this sword was incredibly talented.
"It is a very beautiful sword. Very well made. But... why the name?"

Alex noded, and said, "Yes... a wonderfully crafted blade..." Alex looked at it, and said, "This blade... it is said, That the two stars of calamity will one day combine... and produce this sword... a sword of light and of darkness... a weapon for protecting... or to destroy the world... and I... was chosen as its master..."

"How... extraordinary," Dahlia breathed. The way Alex spoke of it, and the story he gave was just... exquisite.
She gave him a small grin. "I'm sorry to disappoint, but my sword is nothing of the like. My master helped me craft this sword, and I'm afraid it has no special name or purpose, other than to aid me in defending myself." Her hand unconsciously went to her sword and she grasped it gently, reassuring herself it was indeed still there.

"I see..." Alex said, smiling, "weither or not it is as legendary as my sword, yours is still a finely crafted blade..." Alex smiled, but, his smile turned into a slight frown, as he said, "I... must tell Master Aurion about that woman..."
