Round 1: Róta vs. Pascentia
Róta: “Order of the Chalice”, huh?
I hear that’s where they dump you when you draw a heartsword, but can’t pass the tests for anywhere else.
Pascentia: You do? Funny, I did meet the qualifications for the Army Northern Force . . . And the Ceannic Navy First Fleet, and . . .
. . . the Order of the Horn . . .
and the Order of the Axe . . .
the space corps . . .
the Ceannic Army Chorus . . .
I didn’t test into the veterinary corps, so you may have a point.

One second, imagining going to the moon in this universe.
There’s a space corps?! Boss, how could you keep that from us?
So, what’s the Order of the Ax?
Also, anyone else suspect she may have tested into another Order as well?
Not sure, but my guess would be the musical branch of the military. At least that’s what my sense of puns suggests.
Ok, Pascentia is now in my top 5 fave characters list (for this comic)
Space corps? There’s space travel in this world? Can we get a “Thorn Explains” about that sometime?
Yes, please!
There’ll be a Sunday that talks about some of it in a couple of weeks!
Why did her sword become a arming sword suddenly? That she’s holding in one hand?
(I’m not even getting into the stance and yes, I am familiar with longsword stances).
They’re fighting with regular swords, not heartswords, remember?
Oh, right. I take it they didn’t let go of that.
I was half-expecting something along the lines of….
“That’s a common misconception, and not wholly inaccurate. The Chalice is where you go if you don’t excel in any ONE thing, but you’re damn good at many things.
♪~ Jack of all trades, Master of None.
A damn sight more useful,
than a master of one.~♪
Oh, sorry! did you want to keep hold of your sword? “
Uh … I think the transcript is attributing too many sentences to Pascentia …
Good catch, thanks.
