1899. Two Open Minds

"Su? Are you here?" The soft voice of Alice was not one that Su thought she would hear when she had just woken up and was cleaning her armor. 

'I'm in here. Just finished my armor cleaning. I forget how dirty it gets walking around so much. It was very overdue for some care." This was very evident in the dirty rags that Su had. Each was covered with dust and dirt. Even monster blood had dried in a few places here and there. But what was the worst was the little bits of bone stuck in them that had once belonged to undead monsters. Extra troublesome to clean. 

"Oh, do you have time to fight me?" out of all the things that Su thought that Alice as coming to ask her, this was never one of them.
