Don Quixote smiled in response, before defending her countless aspirations.
"Even if after I had dreamt all my dreams, and must leave a count unfulfilled, It would be nice to contemplate them and say that at least I had dreamt them. At least I pondered it. At least I tried."
"Without further dally... Ahem."
Don Quixote dramatically cleared her throat, before beginning her tale.
"I tell thee a tale from many years ago, yon. I am doubtless this shall be the first time thine has heard this story. There once was a young lady of no importance. She was nineteen years of age, only just becoming an adult as the sun rose that day. She had lived a life of struggle and sorrow, as many had in the backstreets."
As the story dragged on, Don Quixote grew more lively in her speech and mannerisms.
"The location of ones next meal was uncertain at all times, brutes stalked every corner, and thou must perish the thought of peace and quiet. The lady had traveled far in hopes of opportunity, but longed to return home. She had spent much time being frugal, attempting to acquire enough funding to board a Warp Train to S. Corp. The price was extraordinary! Especially in District 23, the heart and origin of the Warp Trains."
She shuddered briefly at the mention of the Warp Trains, now disillusioned with the truth.
"But finally, she had scraped together the finances. All one required was to bring her coinage to the station to accrue the ticket. But in this evening, there was danger afoot. A group of villains attempted to steal the lady's hard-earned wealth! She fled, but found herself cornered ultimately."
Here, Don Quixote's voice grew far more grim.
"A group of four, all brandishing weapons. The young lady cried out, knowing her final moments drew nearer as they approached."
But just as suddenly as her voice dropped, it grew back in passion.
"And just as one was to deliver a fatal blow, the clashing of metal rang out in the silent streets. The knave hadn't the moment to cry out before they fell into two pieces! Looks of horror were etched permanently into the countenance of the remaining few, as they were all split across and turned into a crimson haze. The lady had not known if this individual was merely her new executor or savior, until she had turn to face her. Despite the darkness of the night, her outfit blending into the shadows, her striking red hair stood out. She wielded a blade larger than the young lady herself, adorned with eyes and teeth, pulsing as if it lived for the thrill of bloodshed. The Red Mist herself, in all of her glory! She spoke few words, admonishing her for her carelessness, before leaving just as suddenly as she arrived."
While describing the Color Fixer, Don Quixote seemed to have a hard time staying still, making a number of hand motions and expressions.
"To someone of such renown as the Red Mist, this encounter may have meant nothing. But for the young lady, 'twas metamorphic. She no longer believed her future lay in her homeland. But instead, to be a Color Fixer herself. To be a savior of the downtrodden! A gallant knight, and a valiant hero for now and eternity!"
Don Quixote needed to pause for a moment to take a few breaths, her energetic tirade emptying her lungs.
"And thusly ends our tale. None knoweth now what hath become of our young maiden. Hap she has perished, or mayhap still seeking to follow the footsteps of her guiding light."
