"Yeah, I'll be okay." She wasn't lying, but she wasn't telling the truth either. On the one hand, as bad as the shadow selves sounded, it wasn't the worst thing that she'd seen on Crystallis.
On the other, the fact that she'd seen worst on Crystallis made her more wary of facing the shadows. Natalia had just come from home, so the heroic speech made sense, but Anise had been here long enough to know that everything always ended up worse than it sounded.
She wanted to say this to Natalia, but ultimately decided to hold back. If the princess was already this gung-ho about it, it was momentum they could use to move forward. Also, Anise was really scared of her shadow. Not that she let it show, of course.
"Alright, then let's do this! Let's show those shadows what they get for standing in our way."
