Dedue & Mercedes B

Mercedes
Ah. I think I get it.

Mercedes
So, the sky god got into an argument with the earth god, then Duscur was created?

Dedue
To oversimplify it somewhat, yes.

Mercedes
There's something so mysterious about it.

Mercedes
There are only mountains separating us from Duscur, but it's like a completely different world.

Mercedes
This has been so interesting. I've never learned so much about it before!

Dedue
There are not many left to pass on the legends of Duscur.

Mercedes
Really? That's a shame.

Mercedes
It's almost like when someone dies, or a family line ends.

Mercedes
I think a place is only truly destroyed when there's no one left to remember it.

Mercedes
You should tell more people about Duscur to keep it alive.

Dedue
That is a strange thing to say.

Mercedes
Oh? Why do you think that?

Dedue
Duscur is forever the enemy of Faerghus.

Dedue
No one cares about our culture or history.

Mercedes
I'm different though. I don't know anyone who was killed by the people of Duscur.

Mercedes
I don't hold a grudge against you and I never have.

Dedue
...

Mercedes
Um, Dedue? Is this recipe from Duscur?

Dedue
You don't care for it?

Mercedes
No, no! I was actually surprised by how much I enjoyed it.

Mercedes
Would you teach me how to make it soon?

Dedue
But it seems I am ever the teacher with you, and seldom the student.

Mercedes
You're right. I'm so sorry. Ah! I have an idea!

Mercedes
My mother taught me to bake the perfect sweets to go with tea. Would you like to learn how to bake them?

Mercedes
It's a secret Martritz family recipe that's been passed down for generations!

Dedue
House Martritz of the Empire? I thought they were no more.

Mercedes
It's true. My father's family was wiped out in the Empire. I'm the last living descendant.

Dedue
Are you certain you wish to impart such precious memories to me?

Mercedes
Of course! Now that my family's gone, I'm the only one who knows the secret!

Mercedes
The sweets would vanish from Fódlan if something happened to me.

Dedue
I see your point.

Dedue
Yes, I would like to learn.
