conversations.value:  "Of course you haven’t. They’re putting their lives on the line just by existing. If someone close to the government, like you, discovered their existence, they’d be purged."

conversations.value:  "I suppose…" The circumstances here were different from those the Resistance had dealt with in Bauer. The Resistance had been able to operate in the open because the kingdom had been weak and the government had lost the backing of the commoners. Most would-be revolutionary forces recruited in secrecy, amassing numbers so they could one day strike before the government knew what hit them—and because if they didn’t, they would be crushed.

conversations.prefix: Hilda:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  "While the way you say it—‘anti-government forces’—sounds bad, Claire tells me they’re actually a group of people from religious nations that were destroyed by the empire. Do you think they would consider the empire that took over their countries ‘just’?"
conversations.prefix: Philine:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  "That’s…" Hilda hesitated. "They have their own grievances and their own notions of justice. I have no intention of joining hands with evil to succeed, but I can confidently say that they are not evil." Floored, Hilda remained silent.

conversations.prefix: Philine:

conversations.value:  "Not at all. I’m just surprised. You’ve changed…" Hilda shook her head. "No, maybe you’ve always been like this, but can now speak your mind."

conversations.value:  "Are you praising me?"
conversations.prefix: Philine:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  "I am. You’re correct—the rebel groups have their own sense of justice, and the wars that brought such groups into existence were not wars of justice against evil, but of justice against justice. I’m glad you understand." Hilda smiled.

conversations.value:  "W-well, it wouldn’t do for me to remain a useless princess forever. That’s why I had Claire and Rae train me."

conversations.value:  "Indeed? You’ll have to fill me in on that later."
conversations.prefix: Hilda:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  "Absolutely." Philine smiled. "Oh, we got off topic a bit there, didn’t we? Claire, can I leave the explanation of the rebel forces to you?"
conversations.prefix: Philine:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  "But of course. There are currently three rebel groups active in the empire. Melica, Dana, and Kiko: all countries with state religions that were destroyed by the empire."
conversations.prefix: Claire:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  "So there’s three of them…" Hilda shuddered. As an aside, Claire knew this information because I’d drilled all that Revo-Lily knowledge into her before we left for the empire. I was so proud of her.
