Rinkah!
Huh? Oh, Saizo. What's up?
Have you forgotten already about that last encounter? Why did you give the sign to retreat?
We'd just beaten off two waves. The whole company was worn out. It just made sense to get out while the getting was good.
We could've fought longer. If we'd kept at it, our foes might not have escaped.
You're letting your temper run you. Even if you're right, can you be sure we wouldn't have lost anyone?
A few casualties would have been worth the blow struck to the enemy. That encounter will have consequences for the rest of the war!
...Hmph. In the Flame Tribe, our war parties were so small that losing anyone was unthinkable.
And?
Our elders taught us the importance of reading the situation. There's virtue in retreat, if it means a single life can be saved.
Ridiculous. Cowardice is no virtue. The Flame Tribe... It sounds to me like their embers have grown cold. I have no desire to stay and listen to your justifications. *vanishes*
Rrgh...
