 * Avatar: Leo, could I borrow you for a moment?
 * Leo: Certainly. What do you need?
 * Avatar: I was hoping you could help me study.
 * Leo: You? Wish to study? In the middle of a war? I'm happy to help, but why are you suddenly so serious about your education?
 * Avatar: I thought broadening my horizons might help me protect everyone... Now that we're at war, I can practice what I learn right away in a real battle.
 * Leo: The battlefield is not so kind, nor so simple. I'm sure you've learned that by now. Haven't you, Avatar?
 * Avatar: Well, yes, but...
 * Leo: However! I do think intellectual pursuits play a key role in keeping a mind sharp. That can make all the difference in the heat of battle. If you truly desire it, I will teach you anything you wish to know.
 * Avatar: Thank you, Leo!
 * Leo: But don't expect me to go easy on you. You know how strict I am about my studies.
 * Avatar: Um, I know, but maybe...you could lighten up just a little?
 * Leo: You ask the impossible. I will be as strict as I need to be to help your mind grow. Don't forget, you're the one who sought this out!
 * Avatar: I suppose that's true... I'll do whatever you ask of me without complaint.
 * Leo: Spoken like a model pupil. Now, let us begin!

 * Avatar: Leo! I finished the assignment you gave me on battle tactics.
 * Leo: Ah, excellent. Hand it over; I'll take a look.
 * Avatar: So, um...what do you think?
 * Leo: This is...rubbish. If you positioned your units this way, they'd all be massacred!
 * Avatar: What?! No way!
 * Leo: You're focusing too much on the enemies right in front of you. Rookie mistake. Do that, and you open the door for them to overtake you from behind. In this situation, try using a small, select group of soldiers to scout ahead. Guide them through here while keeping close watch on their formation. If you successfully reposition them like so, see how your battle options increase? You could even sneak around here and take out their commander with ease.
 * Avatar: Wow... That's amazing. You're so clever, Leo.
 * Leo: Not really. This is the most basic of the basics. Honestly, it's a miracle you've survived this long.
 * Avatar: Yeah...I know. I certainly couldn't have made it so far alone. *sigh*
 * Leo: ...
 * Avatar: What's wrong, Leo?
 * Leo: Avatar...you know how, on the battlefield, we all look out for you? Why do you think that is?
 * Avatar: Probably because...I'm so new to all this.
 * Leo: Precisely. I'm glad you realized as much on your own. That's why Xander and Camilla have always paid more attention to you...
 * Avatar: Oh, Leo, I wouldn't say-
 * Leo: No, it's fine. The strong are always alone because no one thinks they need any help. But that's not true at all. There have been many times when I wished... that I had someone at my side, someone to help guide me through tough situations. But I'm no longer a child, and I can't get away with saying such selfish things. All I'm trying to say is that you should enjoy where you are in the growth process.
 * Avatar: Leo...I'm so sorry. It's all my fault you feel so hurt, isn't it? The others have always doted on me so...
 * Leo: ...
 * Avatar: You're so talented, Leo. We're all so very impressed by you. We hold you up on a pedestal of sorts... but I can see how that might by lonely. But you should know that I would trade minds with you in a moment if I could. I'm trying so hard, but I never feel like I'm quite good enough to lead us...
 * Leo: ...Forgive me, Sister. I said too much. We are family, first and foremost. All that matters is we have each other's backs. Forgive my moment of weakness.
 * Avatar: It's OK, Leo. I know I'm not as strong or wise as I should be. But that's why I need your help. I hope you will consent to keep tutoring me...
 * Leo: Of course, Avatar. It would be my great honor.

 * Avatar: Hey, Leo! I completed your latest battle tactics assignment.
 * Leo: Oh? Let's have a look. ...
 * Avatar: ...So? How did I do this time?
 * Leo: This is...really good, actually. Much better than the last one. Your units actually have a decent chance of survival.
 * Avatar: You think so? Phew! That's a relief.
 * Leo: Of course, there's always room for improvement. Still, you did well.
 * Avatar: It's all thanks to you, Leo. I couldn't have improved so quickly without your help.
 * Leo: Too true. In fact, showing a bit more gratitude wouldn't be out of line.
 * Avatar: Leo! You're the worst, haha. Is that really something a teacher should be saying?
 * Leo: Haha, my apologies. I tend to let my sharp tongue get carried away from time to time. Honestly, when you first asked for my help, I didn't think you'd be so dedicated.
 * Avatar: It's only because you're such a great teacher.
 * Leo: No, that's not it at all.
 * Avatar: It's...not?
 * Leo: I always had a theory about why Camilla lavishes attention on you... But now I've finally confirmed my suspicions. It's your kind heart. Being near you has a sort of unexplainable soothing effect. Additionally, you're so kind and eager to learn, it makes teaching you a great joy.
 * Avatar: Really? You mean it?
 * Leo: I do. Something about you just draws people in and makes them trust you. That's why, despite your lack of experience, you're such a natural leader. I thought the weak attracted the attention of others while the strong stood alone... But I see that was a misunderstanding born of my own arrogance.
 * Avatar: Leo...
 * Leo: Thank you for helping me realize that, Avatar. 
 * Avatar: Don't thank me. I didn't actually do anything...
 * Leo: Enough talk. I intend to polish you into the finest strategist Nohr has ever known. Scream and cry all you want, but I won't let you off the hook until you're perfect.
 * Avatar: Um, OK...just don't go TOO hard on me. Promise? ...Leo?!
 * Leo: Hmm. Well, just give me your best and we'll see what happens.

 * Leo: ...
 * Avatar: What's wrong, Leo? You look so sad...
 * Leo: Not now, Avatar.
 * Avatar: What's the matter? I know you too well, Leo. You can't keep anything from me. Come on now, tell me what's bothering you.
 * Leo: ...Could you please just leave me alone for a while?
 * Avatar: You don't mean that...right?
 * Leo: Sorry, it's just... You're the last person I want to see me like this.
 * Avatar: Oh, don't be silly. Being sad is nothing to be embarrassed about.
 * Leo: You don't understand. You couldn't. Please, just go.
 * Avatar: There's really nothing I can do to help you? Nothing at all?
 * Leo: ...
 * Avatar: Very well. If you don't want me around, I'll leave you to your solitude. Just know that I'm here for you. If you need anything at all, please let me know.
 * Leo: ...Forgive me, Avatar. Perhaps you can help after all. Will you hear me out?
 * Avatar: I thought you'd never ask.
 * Leo: I have a problem, and for the life of me I can't figure out a solution.
 * Avatar: There's something even the great Leo can't figure out?! What could it be?
 * Leo: There's something I want very badly, but I don't know how to go about obtaining it. This has never happened. I've never had a problem I couldn't think my way out of. I know it would be foolish to act without proper planning... And yet, I don't think I can hold myself back any longer.
 * Avatar: Leo... If it means that much to you, you have to go for it! What is it you want?
 * Leo: Perhaps this will make things clear.
 * Avatar: Wait...this is a ring!
 * Leo: Keen as ever. But as you might have surmised, this isn't just any ring... This is the ring you give to one special person whom you vow to love for eternity. When I bought this ring for you, for the first time in my life, I felt...happy. Pure happiness, like everything finally made sense in my life. I've been battling these emotions since I first learned we aren't blood related... But as I said, I cannot hold them back any longer.
 * Avatar: You don't mean...
 * Leo: Dear Avatar... It seems I've fallen madly in love with you. Would you do me the honor of accepting this ring?
 * Avatar: Leo! I don't know what to say...
 * Leo: I know-it's just... You're all I ever think about. I love you so much, I'm in agony!
 * Avatar: ...
 * Leo: I'm sorry... I know this is probably the last thing you expected me to say. But now that it's out there, I must know... Do you feel the same?
 * Avatar: Leo... Thank you. I happily accept this beautiful ring.
 * Leo: R-really?!
 * Avatar: Yes. I feel the same as you. These feelings are unexpected, but also...beautiful. I'm glad you said something. I don't think I ever would have had the courage to. I know I still have much to learn, but I promise to try my hardest for you! I want nothing more than to be worthy of your love.
 * Leo: You are perfectly splendid just as you are, Avatar. Together, I'm certain we will both continue to grow as warriors and as people.
 * Avatar: Heehee, I look forward to it!
 * Leo: Thank you for your hand, Avatar. I swear to devote my life to your happiness.
 * Avatar: Oh, Leo... I promise the same.
 * Leo: I've hidden my feelings for so long... I can't believe you felt the same way all this time. Stay with me forever.

 * Azura: You are the ocean's gray waves... ♪
 * Leo: What a lovely melody...
 * Azura: Leo?! How long have you been standing there?
 * Leo: I apologize. I was going to say something but your song entranced me. I don't think I've ever heard music like that in Nohr.
 * Azura: ...My mother taught me that song.
 * Leo: Are you all right? You look a little pale.
 * Azura: I'm sorry. I just remembered something I've been trying to forget.
 * Leo: Is it about your time in Nohr? I've heard terrible stories about how you and your mother were treated.
 * Azura: Leo, please forgive me. I just realized I'm late to a meeting. Excuse me.

 * Felicia: KYAAAAAAH! Not again!
 * (Crashing sounds)
 * Leo: Felicia... You appear to have dropped another plate. Are you OK?
 * Felicia: I-I'm so sorry, Lord Leo!
 * Leo: There's no need to apologize.
 * Felicia: Urgh...I'm still sorry though...
 * Leo: Nonsense. I've seen you make plenty of mistakes in the past. This wasn't the first and it won't be the last.
 * Felicia: I guess that's true, milord. I'm not very graceful.
 * Leo: True. In fact, it is my observation that you are not suited to be a servant.
 * Felicia: WHAT?! Don't say that!
 * Leo: Oh? Why? It's the truth, is it not? One mustn't shy away from the truth, Felicia. One must face it head on.
 * Felicia: Please, milord! I'll try harder, I promise! Don't make me leave!
 * Leo: I wouldn't dismiss you personally, though you do cause us undue grief. I was not threatening disciplinary action. I was merely offering food for thought. I implore you to reconsider. This profession may not be the right line of work for you. Now, if you'll excuse me, I must return to my studies. Good day, Felicia.
 * Felicia: Good-bye, Lord Leo...

 * Felicia: There we go! Polished and shiny! Now to calmly and carefully carry them over there...
 * Leo: Hello, Felicia. What are you doing?
 * Felicia: Oh! Lord Leo... I was just practicing my maidly duties.
 * Leo: Oh? I don't think I'll ever understand why you put so much effort into such things. You are not good at housekeeping, and likely never will be.
 * Felicia: B-but if I try my hardest...
 * Leo: Don't fret. It's not as though you have nothing to contribute. There's another job for which you're much better suited.
 * Felicia: Huh? What's that?
 * Leo: Well, you're a remarkable soldier. Though you don't look it, you're quite the spectacle on the battlefield.
 * Felicia: Y-yes. Gunter tells me the same thing.
 * Leo: Then what's the problem? You should cease your duties as a servant today. You could do so much more for us if you worked as a soldier full-time.
 * Felicia: Well...
 * Leo: What's wrong? Is that not an agreeable proposition for you?
 * Felicia: I don't mind fighting... I'm happy to help out in the war whenever I'm required to.
 * Leo: Yes, I know. You are a brave and loyal woman, and you've served us well.
 * Felicia: But...at the end of the day, I don't want to be a soldier. I want to be a maid. I might not be perfect at it, but caring for everyone is what I want most.
 * Leo: Hmm. Well, I suppose it can't be helped. Do as you please, Felicia.
 * Felicia: Yes, milord! I'll do my best!

A Support

 * Leo: Felicia.
 * Felicia: Yes, milord?
 * Leo: I've been wondering... What is it that drives you? Why do you want to be a maid so badly? As a soldier, everyone would recognize and respect your skills.
 * Felicia: It's because I want those who cared for me to be proud of me.
 * Leo: Those who cared for you?
 * Felicia: Yes. Since I arrived at the castle, so many people have shown me kindness. Like Gunter. He taught me everything he knew about being a servant. He was very strict, but he was also like a father to me. And Jakob too. He looked out for me when I was younger. Even though he says mean things, he's a very kind person inside. And...I want all those people to see me become a maid they can be proud of!
 * Leo: I see. I had no idea. In that case, I will not press the issue any further.
 * Felicia: Lord Leo...
 * Leo: You will need to work very hard, but I believe you can do it. I wish you only the best, Felicia.
 * Felicia: Thank you, Lord Leo! I'll give it my all!

 * Leo: Felicia, do you have a moment?
 * Felicia: Yes, of course. But let me finish moving these dishes first.
 * Leo: Hm, that stack looks a bit precarious. May I assist you?
 * Felicia: No, that's all right! I can do it my—ARRRRGGGHH!
 * Leo: *sigh* I knew that would happen.
 * Felicia: I'm so sorry, Lord Leo! Are you hurt?
 * Leo: I'm fine. And you?
 * Felicia: I'm OK...
 * Leo: That's a relief. Well, I suppose we'd better clean up these plates.
 * Felicia: Oh! You mean you'll help?! Thank you, milord.
 * Felicia: Phew! That took longer than expected. So, um, what was it that you wanted to talk to me about?
 * Leo: Felicia...I love you.
 * Felicia: L-Lord Leo?! What are you saying?
 * Leo: Just that. During our time together, I've grown to admire you. I love how you're willing to devote your life to making those you love proud. You're earnest and strong, yet sweet and caring. You astound me. I wish to be with you, Felicia. Please...will you be my wife?
 * Felicia: Y-you know I can't do that!
 * Leo: Why not?
 * Felicia: What do you mean, "why not"? You're royalty! You can't marry someone like me! Besides...I'm not worthy of you. I'll break all the plates and mess up your laundry!
 * Leo: I don't wish to hire you as a servant, Felicia. That would be ill-advised. But last I checked, love has nothing to do with menial housework. And yes, I am royalty. A prince of Nohr, no less. That means I can be with whomever I wish, even a clumsy maid. So, please, allow me to ask you again... Will you be mine, dear Felicia?
 * Felicia: Lord Leo... Yes! A thousand times yes!
 * Leo: Truly? Thank you, Felicia. You've made me happier than I ever imagined I could be.
 * Felicia: Heehee. I could say the same thing to you, milord.

 * Xander: Leo, do you have a moment? I wish to speak with you about the last war meeting.
 * Leo: The war meeting? Whatever about?
 * Xander: I saw you raise your hand is if you were about to give your opinion on something.
 * Xander: But then you lowered it without a word.
 * Leo: Ah. Well...
 * Leo: That was...
 * Xander: If you take issue with what I'm proposing, you should not hesitate to speak up.
 * Xander: You are a prince of Nohr, Leo. It is your royal duty to do so.
 * Leo: I suppose... though there would have been no point in speaking up
 * Xander: How so?
 * Leo: *sigh* Because your the crown prince, Xander. You alone decide what we do.
 * Leo: And with the great Xander at the helm, my ideas are like those of a child.
 * Leo: So what's the point of speaking up?
 * Xander: What's the point in remaining silent? If I was in your shoes, I would...
 * Leo: That's just it, Xander! I'm NOT you!
 * Xander: !!
 * Leo: I'm sorry, Brother, please, forgive me for my outburst. I beg of you to let this go.
 * Leo: It is my fault, as ever. I promise to make you proud next time.
 * Xander: Leo...

 * Xander: Leo, may I speak with you?
 * Leo: Certainly, what's on your mind.
 * Xander: The other day, you said quite passionatley that you and I are not the same.
 * Leo: Oh, that. I'm sorry I said anything, I lost my head for a moment.
 * Xander: Not at all. What you said is true.
 * Xander: You and I are different people, Leo, and I am grateful for that.
 * Xander: You have your own strengths and your own way of doing things... just as I have mine.
 * Xander: I do not expect you to follow in my footsteps, Brother.
 * Leo: ...
 * Leo: Hey, Xander. Do you remember when we trained together when we were little?
 * Xander: Of course. It was my duty as the eldest to prepare my siblings for combat.
 * Leo: Even back then, you excelled at everything you tried.
 * Leo: Fighting, horsemanship, elocution, swimming, the list goes on.
 * Leo: You were unstopable. Not me, though.
 * Leo: I had to work so hard at everything. I was so envious of you.
 * Xander: ...
 * Leo: At first, we all practiced swordsmanship, magic, and hand-to-hand combat together.
 * Leo: But eventually, you took to the sword while I devoted myself to magic.
 * Leo: A large part of the reason I chose magic... Was because you didn't.
 * Leo: I knew that if I walked the same path as you, I would always be in your shadow.
 * Leo: The joke's on me, though. Your shadow is too grand to escape, I'm afraid.
 * Xander: Leo, I...
 * Leo: I know, Xander. You and I are different. There is no point in comparing us.
 * Leo: I know that, I do, and yet...
 * Leo: I don't think I'll ever stop trying to reach your heights... or failing miserably to do so.
 * Xander: ...
 * Leo: Sorry, it must be hard having such a petty, competitive brother. Please, forgive me...
 * Xander: Leo!

 * Xander: Leo! May I have a moment of your time? I want you to know I'm grateful you finally told me how you feel. I have something to tell you as well.
 * Leo: ...
 * Xander: When we were both young, only beginning to find our feet on the battlefield... I was relieved the day you chose to walk the path of magic instead of the blade.
 * Leo: I don't understand. Why would you be relieved?
 * Xander: Before then, I always felt you at my heels, pushing me. Pressuring me.
 * Leo: Pressuring you? Me?
 * Xander: You're so precocious, Leo. It was only a matter of time before you caught up to me. You say you were envious of me, but the truth is, I felt the same way about you.
 * Leo: That's nice of you to say, Xander, but I don't need you're empty flattery.
 * Xander: Sullen Leo... You still don't get it.
 * Leo: Get what?
 * Xander: You were so concerned about being inferior to me in any way... But of course you were. You were much younger and much less experienced. You said that when we were younger I excelled at everything.
 * Leo: You did. You were unstoppable.
 * Xander: That's because I had already been training for years! It's only natural. Yet even with my advantage you were closing the gap between us so quickly... If you had bested me, the eldest prince... I would have failed as your brother. That's part of why I try so hard. As your brother, it's my job to stay one step ahead.
 * Leo: I... I don't know what to believe.
 * Xander: I had only spoken the truth, Leo. In your heart, you must know that. I value you more than you know. So there's no reason to be shy arounf me, is there? I implore you to speak your mind boldly in our war meetings, for the benefit of us all.
 * Leo: ... As you wish, Xander. From now on, no more holding back on my opinions. In fact you better watch yourself, or I maybe nipping at your heels again soon.
 * Xander: Ha! I dearly hope so. I'm so proud of you, Leo.
 * Leo: Thanks, Xander. But enough brotherly bonding... Let's talk strategy!

 * Leo: Camilla, you're looking radiant today. Have you changed your hair?
 * Camilla: Aw, thanks, Leo. No, it's just the same old style. But thanks for the compliment. Speaking of compliments, I think your armor is really cute.
 * Leo: Cute? Ugh, that's the last thing I want to hear about my armor.
 * Camilla: Heehee! Sorry, my sweet brother, but it's true. The matching leggings really make that whole outfit sing.
 * Leo: Gods...
 * Camilla: Oh, Leo. I know you're one of our most skilled warriors... But to me, you'll always be a baby brother.
 * Leo: I see. A baby. Splendid.
 * Camilla: Well, what's wrong with that? Don't worry—it's not like I'm going to pinch your cheeks in the heat of battle.
 * Leo: ...
 * Camilla: The silent treatment, eh? Fine. I have errands to run anyway. See you later, Leo.
 * Leo: I should have kept my mouth shut...

 * Leo: Camilla, do you have a moment?
 * Camilla: Of course, Leo. How may I help you?
 * Leo: Well, I've discovered an interesting tome in the archive... But I'm having a hard time decoding some of the inscriptions. I was wondering if you could take a look.
 * Camilla: Leo, if you can't make sense of them, what makes you think I'll have a chance? You were always the brighter student, remember?
 * Leo: I wouldn't say that. I mean—
 * Camilla: Please, spare me. You've always been the talented little brother. Even when you were a child, I was learning from you, and not the other way around.
 * Leo: ...
 * Camilla: What's the matter? Is it something I said?
 * Leo: No, it's nothing. Don't worry about it.
 * Camilla: Please, don't feel bad. I'm proud to have a brother as smart as you.
 * Leo: Sometimes I wish I weren't so "talented." Then maybe you'd pay more attention to me...
 * Camilla: Sorry, you're mumbling a bit, dear. I didn't quite catch that.
 * Leo: It's nothing. Forget it. No, wait, Camilla. I do have something to say. Listen well. I'm going to use this war as an opportunity to prove myself to you and everyone else. I just ask that you pay attention.
 * Camilla: Of course. But you have nothing to prove! I believe in you one hundred percent.
 * Leo: Then I shall reach for one hundred and fifty.

 * Leo: Camilla, I need to speak with you about something important.
 * Camilla: What's the matter?
 * Leo: I need you to know—I'm not as talented as you think I am. I haven't done anything worthy of your pride. So you can stop faking it.
 * Camilla: What are you talking about?
 * Leo: I don't have the overwhelming power that Xander does. I'm not good with people like Elise. And how could I POSSIBLY compare to your beloved Avatar?
 * Camilla: Leo...
 * Leo: No, it's true. Everyone but me is actually deserving of your love.
 * Camilla: I'm sorry you feel that way, Leo. But I really am proud of you. Please believe me.It's true that I love Elise, Xander, and Avatar too... But I have plenty of love to give. More than enough for you.
 * Leo: It's OK. I'm not a little kid anymore. You don't have to say that.
 * Camilla: Look, to be honest, I've been a little more hands off with you than the others. But that's because I didn't want to get in your way! You're going to do great things in this world, Leo. And I'm going to sit back and watch.
 * Leo: ...
 * Camilla: Don't believe me? Well, I saw what you did in that battle the other day...
 * Leo: You...did?
 * Camilla: One of our allies was in trouble, and you rushed in to protect him. Even though it put you in a vulnerable position. You took quite a hit!
 * Leo: Indeed, I did...
 * Camilla: And it's not just that. I notice you studying late into the night. I see how many hours you dedicate to your training...and how you encourage others. I've kept a careful eye on you, Brother, so I know my pride in you is justified.
 * Leo: I...I had no idea.
 * Camilla: You work so hard, Leo. And you worry too much. But part of that is my fault. I should have been more vocal with my support. Please forgive me. I will be a better sister from now on.
 * Leo: No, no. I'm the one who should work on becoming a better sibling... I can't believe how self-absorbed I've been. Forgive me, and I will work even harder to be worthy of your pride.
 * Camilla: All right, if it will make you feel better... I forgive you. Now, can we just go back to our normal roles? I'll be the doting older sister, and you been the genius who's smarter than everyone. Deal?

 * Leo: Oh, I see. You saw a sun shower.
 * Elise: A sun-shower?
 * Leo: Yes. There are a few possible explanations.
 * Leo: The most likely is that the heavy rain was carried somewhere by a strong wind.

 * Leo: Hm? What do you mean?
 * Elise: Xander told me that Father used to be different, but he didn't say more.
 * Elise: So I was kind of hoping you could tell me what kind of person father was back then.
 * Leo: Hmm. Well, before Queen Arete passed away, I'd say he was a gentle father.
 * Elise: Gentle? I can't even imagine him like that.
 * Leo: I know, if I were you, I wouldn't believe it either. But I used to be very find of father.
 * Leo: He doted on us. He even gave me piggyback rides whenever I asked!
 * Elise: What?! I'm so jealous! He never treated me like that!
 * Elise: What else? What else?
 * Leo: He was a courageous person. He's even ride out to battle on the front lines.
 * Leo: Obviously, I've mever seen him do so myself, but that's what I've been told.
 * Leo: But I did see him spar. He was so strong, I couldn't help but believe the stories.
 * Elise: Wow, really? I want to meet back-then-father! He sounds amazing!
 * Leo: He was. To tell you the truth, I wish I could see him again as well.
 * Leo: Let's see, what else did they say about him? Ah, yes.
 * Leo: When he was young, he never ran out of love stories to tell.
 * Leo: All the girls in the kingdom wanted to be at his side.
 * Leo: And they weren't just interested in the throne, either. He was quite the character.
 * Elise: Heehee! OUR Father? A ladie's man?! It's not possible.
 * Leo: I know it's hard to believe now, but he was known as an incredibly charismatic leader.
 * Leo: Unfortunatley, this charisma inspired much chaos among his suitors.
 * Leo: There were so many vying for his favor that they frequentley turned to violence.
 * Leo: Some even turned on members of their own family.
 * Elise: What?! How could someone do something like that to their own family?
 * Leo: I suppose they lost of their self-control in their effect to rise in position.
 * Leo: I agree, it certainly does not speak well of their character.
 * Elise: I see...
 * Leo: Elise? are you OK?
 * Elise: Huh? Oh, it's nothing!
 * Elise: It's almost time to eat. We should hurry back before all the food is gone!

 * Leo: Odin.
 * Odin: Yes, milord? Have you a new task for me? Perhaps a forbidden object to recover, or the destruction of an ancient foe?
 * Leo: Not exactly, no.
 * Odin: Oh. Then what do you require of me?
 * Leo: It is about your guarding of the supply lines. I heard there was an incident.
 * Odin: Ah, yes! I remember it well. An enemy raiding party came upon us at dawn. They swept over the hill like a crimson tide, but at the last moment I struck. Blinded by the radiance of my magic's light, they broke off their charge. And as they regrouped, I put them down, one by one. Kapow! One down! Boom! Another! Until all were returned to the unforgiving soil. Well...I might be embellishing. There was a small attack, but it was no big deal.
 * Leo: That isn't want I heard. I hear the enemy cornered you, but you triumphed. Perhaps not quite alone, and not in such a heroic fashion, but still, you prevailed. Our people credit you with the fact they still draw breath at all. You did well, Odin. You have my gratitude.
 * Odin: Your words do me far more honor than I deserve.
 * Leo: No, they do you far too little. There is no one I count on more than you. I very much look forward to your continued service. But we will talk more of this later. There are, unfortunately, urgent matters I must attend to. You are dismissed.
 * Odin: Milord!
 * Leo: Yes, Odin?
 * Odin: Was, um...was that all?
 * Leo: Hm? Yes, I believe that will do.
 * Odin: I-I see. I guess I'll be off, then...

 * Leo: Hm. That was odd. He looked so dissatisfied. I wonder what that was about. He's not the sort to crave rewards...

 * Leo: Odin, may we speak for a moment?
 * Odin: Of course, milord. Is something wrong?
 * Leo: I was about to ask you the same question. You seem despondent of late.
 * Odin: Huh? No, I'm fine.
 * Leo: See? Right there. That's not how you would usually answer that question. Normally you'd say "My soul surges with power!" or "The blood...it rages!" There must be something wrong. Are you dissatisfied with your missions?
 * Odin: Dissatisfied? I don't know. These missions have been very reasonable. It's just...
 * Leo: Just what?
 * Odin: They aren't exciting. But I know they're important, and I'll not neglect my duties.
 * Leo: Exciting? Have I given you orders that were exciting in the past?
 * Odin: You have. When I first became your retainer, for example. Those missions were the stuff of legends!
 * Leo: Wait, you enjoyed those? We're thinking about the same missions, right? Where I sent you to find a lodestone "imbued with the essence of darkness." Or to defeat the spirits that slept in the Woods of the Forlorn.
 * Odin: Yes! That's exactly what I'm talking about!
 * Leo: ...Really?
 * Odin: Yes, legendary feats! Missions worthy of a true hero of darkness! Those are the types of missions that make my blood boil with exhilaration!
 * Leo: I see.
 * Odin: I won't ask you to give me those sorts of missions all the time, but...please. Give me more like them! I haven't had a good adventure in ages! A hero needs more than fetch quests and escort missions.
 * Leo: All right, Odin. I'll think it over.
 * Odin: Thank you, milord! I now go into the world with renewed purpose! FELL purpose!

 * Leo: Huh. That certainly put the spring back into his step.

 * Odin: You called, milord? What is it? Is it time for one of your special missions yet? Just give me the order! What heroic deed do you require of me?
 * Leo: I'm sorry, Odin. I thought long and hard, but there's nothing I can give you. I simply can't send you out on missions like that anymore.
 * Odin: You...can't? But why not? Have I displeased you, milord?
 * Leo: No. Quite the opposite, in fact.
 * Odin: I'm afraid I don't understand.
 * Leo: When I used to give you those dangerous missions, I did so to prove a point. It was nothing personal. You must think about it from my perspective at the time. Here was a complete stranger my father was forcing me to accept as my retainer. So I assigned you impossible tasks, hoping you'd hate me and run away.
 * Odin: I...see.
 * Leo: I didn't think I could trust you, Odin, and it seemed like the only way to be rid of you. But you were so competent, you completed even the most impossible quests. At least a few of them were things I made up on the spot. I'd never even heard of a lodestone imbued with the essence of darkness. It doesn't even make sense! But you found one all the same.
 * Odin: Well, I DO know a thing or two about darkness, milord.
 * Leo: And the legends of the spirits haunting the Woods of the Forlorn are terrible...
 * Odin: Eh, they're not so bad. Better than the Risen.
 * Leo: Risen?
 * Odin: ...Wild animals from my homeland.
 * Leo: I see. Well, the point is, I never expected success on your part. These were futile errands, things I'd never send even our best soldiers to do. That's a large part of why I came to trust and value you as a retainer. Which is why I can't send you on those sorts of missions now.
 * Odin: Ah, so that's why you warmed up to me seemingly out of the blue.
 * Leo: Yes. I was impressed by your skill and drive. Before long, it was clear I had found in you an invaluable ally. And because of this, I cannot send you on such dangerous and pointless missions. Now do you understand?
 * Odin: Yes, milord, but --
 * Leo: No arguments, Odin. I don't know what I would do if I lost you. I need you and Niles by my side. Even after we've restored peace to this world. That is, after all, when the real work will actually begin.
 * Odin: Even after we've restored peace?
 * Leo: Of course. Is there a problem?
 * Odin: No, milord. But...suppose I were to vanish after the fighting was over. You would take on a new retainer, would you not?
 * Leo: ...Yes, I suppose I would. I would have no choice.
 * Odin: Good. I'm glad to hear it.
 * Leo: But there aren't many like you. I think it would be much harder to go on. Any successes might even feel a little... hollow, without you there. Bittersweet.
 * Odin: Milord...
 * Leo: So I'd much prefer you remain my retainer forever. Let's say you do disappear. Fall through a void and into another world. I would still like you to carry your title with you. That way, I'll know there will always be some connection between us. And then, when we begin our peacetime work, I'll know I have your blessing.
 * Odin: Another world, eh? Hm. Thank you, Lord Leo. It would be an honor to remain your retainer for life. I would follow you into the jaws of oblivion and back, were it not for... Well, anyway. Thank you.
 * Leo: No, Odin. Thank you. You have ever been a loyal retainer to me. But, more importantly, you have always been a good friend. I will always remember you as such.
 * Odin: And I you, milord.

 * Leo: Hello, Beruka. Something has been bothering me a while, and I was hoping to ask you about it...
 * Beruka: What is it?
 * Leo: Your skills are quite remarkable. Who was it that trained you?
 * Beruka: A person I met in the slums. Another assassin.
 * Leo: Based on what I've seen, your teacher must have had considerable skill. What was his or her name?
 * Beruka: An excellent question. However, I do not know the answer.
 * Leo: Pardon? How do you not know the name of the person who trained you?
 * Beruka: I was only taught the art of assassination. Nothing else was important.
 * Leo: Very well... Do you know where your old teacher is now?
 * Beruka: Dead and buried. By my hand.
 * Leo: You killed your teacher?! Why?
 * Beruka: He was the target for a contract I accepted, simple as that.
 * Leo: I don't know what to say...

B Support

 * Leo: Hello, Beruka. Sorry for the intrusion, but I can't stop wondering why you killed your teacher...
 * Beruka: Why does it concern you?
 * Leo: I'm curious, that's all. I want to learn what kind of person you are.
 * Beruka: It is as I said before: I accepted a contract to kill my teacher, so I did.
 * Leo: Do you always carry out a contract, even when the target is someone you know?
 * Beruka: I do. The subject of any contract is just another target to me.
 * Leo: Was there no way you could refuse the contract to kill your teacher?
 * Beruka: I could have, but I had no reason to.
 * Leo: Oh, I see. You hated your teacher, then?
 * Beruka: We had no problems between us.
 * Leo: Then...I still don't understand. How can you be so calm about this?
 * Beruka: You are factoring in emotion. You can't do that when you take on a contract. And once a contract is over, you have to forget about it. That was the final lesson that my teacher gave to me.
 * Leo: That seems very...cold.
 * Beruka: Is it? Before, I would kill someone if I accepted a contract. Today, if Lady Camilla ordered it, I would kill someone without hesitation. Nothing has really changed.
 * Leo: So if you got an assignment today to kill someone, it wouldn't matter who they are? Even if they were a friend or ally?
 * Beruka: If I accepted the contract... You're right, it wouldn't matter.
 * Leo: That is...most unsettling.

 * Leo: Oh, Beruka. I didn't see you there...
 * Beruka: Have you been avoiding me, milord?
 * Leo: What do you mean?
 * Beruka: Exactly what I said. You seem to be going out of your way to not be around me.
 * Leo: I suppose I have been, yes. It's difficult to trust someone that you know could change sides in an instant. If you accepted an assignment, you would try to kill that person right away, right?
 * Beruka: That is how it works, yes.
 * Leo: So I thought. Even so, I'm only wary of you. I feel no fear in your presence.
 * Beruka: I don't understand. Why not?
 * Leo: Well, you serve my sister Camilla, who I'm certain would never order my death.
 * Beruka: Another person could give the order. Never assume something is impossible.
 * Leo: This is true... Even so, I still don't fear you. It's a waste of time to overly concern myself with unlikely events. There are undoubtedly those who already want me dead, so I'll worry about them.
 * Beruka: Ignoring potential threats can get you killed.
 * Leo: You really want me to be afraid, don't you?
 * Beruka: Perhaps.
 * Leo: Well, so long as you're my ally, I have nothing to fear from you. You'll fight with me and help defeat those who stand against me.
 * Beruka: You are correct.

 * Leo: Beruka, I was wondering... Is there anyone that you think you'd be unable to kill?
 * Beruka: Hmmm... Of course, anyone stronger than me would prove impossible to defeat.
 * Leo: Sorry, I meant...anyone you wouldn't be able to kill for sentimental reasons.
 * Beruka: Oh. No.
 * Leo: Ah, I see...
 * Beruka: Why do you ask, milord?
 * Leo: Because you said you'd kill anyone you were ordered to, no matter who they were.
 * Beruka: That is correct.
 * Leo: But, what if that person was more to you than just someone you knew?
 * Beruka: I don't understand.
 * Leo: What if you were told to kill a family member? Would you be capable of following that order?
 * Beruka: I...I don't know. I've never had family.
 * Leo: You've lived your whole life without loving someone or being loved?
 * Beruka: That...is correct, milord.
 * Leo: Then it's possible, if you felt what it was like to be loved... you'd be unable to bring yourself to kill such a person.
 * Beruka: Lord Leo, what are you trying to say?
 * Leo: Beruka... I'm in love with you. I want to show you what love is.
 * Beruka: I don't know what to say... You truly love me?
 * Leo: With all my heart, yes.
 * Beruka: I've never felt the feeling described as love. I don't have any idea what it is. But hearing your words... I have this strange, slight warmth in my chest... Is this what it feels like? I'm not certain I like it. But I may.
 * Leo: There is no need to rush this, Beruka. This is a new and unique feeling for you. Please take your time getting used to it.
 * Beruka: No need. I can tell already that I wish to be with you, Lord Leo.
 * Leo: Truly? That is delightful! I wish to be with you as well, Beruka. From this day forward, we'll both live for each other!

 * Nyx: Yes, I was. I'm still not used to it. Even after decades in this body.
 * Leo: ...

 * Nyx: The curse on me is an extremely potent one. I don't think it has a remedy. But even if it did... I might have to remain in this form regardless.


 * Leo: Why?
 * Nyx: Because this condition is a punishment. I was too young...too foolish...
 * Leo: It's an ineffective sentence that lasts indefinitely, wouldn't you say? Even the harshest judge usually allows for the possibility of atonement. But that's up to whoever placed the curse on you, I suppose...

 * Nyx: Long ago, when I was young, I discovered I had a gift for the dark arts. Such power in the hands of a child, as you can imagine, lead to the deaths of many. Until one day... One of the spells I wove took its toll, preventing me from maturing further.
 * Leo: Ah, so that's how it came to be.
 * Nyx: I was crazed at first, desperate to find a way to break the curse's hold over me. But as time went on...I started to wonder if I deserved this form.
 * Leo: ...
 * Nyx: Honestly, even this doesn't seem like sufficient punishment for my actions.
 * Leo: ... Close your eyes, Nyx.
 * Nyx: Why?
 * Leo: I wish to use my own magic on you. I'd like to try speaking to your inner self. The one inside your heart.
 * Nyx: Prince Leo...
 * Leo: I disagree with you. I think your punishment has been more than sufficient. And I'd say it's time you changed your perspective a bit.
 * Nyx: I have...misgivings about this...
 * Leo: I doubt it will be easy. You're quite set in your ways by now, after all. But setting your punishment aside for a moment... Let us both consider the matured, adult Nyx of your own self-image. Would she not forgive you? Would she not allow at least for the possibility? If you'll allow me, I'd like to speak to her one day and find out.
 * Nyx: Prince Leo... You've given me much to think about. I'm not sure about that idea of yours, but thank you for your concern. You are...a good friend. If I may call you that.

 * Kana: Yeah! We'll have a contest to see which of us can make Mama happier! Between the two of us, I'm sure we can come up with all sorts of things! Whoever Mama thanks the most wins!
 * Leo: A father-son competition, hm? Intriguing. Very well. I accept.
 * Kana: Really? Yay!
 * Leo: But remember: I'm your mother's husband. I know her heart better than anyone. And if the goal is to make her happy, I will not pull punches, even for you.
 * Kana: That's fine by me, Papa! I'm gonna beat you fair and square!
 * Leo: Good! Then may the best man win.

 * Kana: Hey, Papa! I've been making a ton of progress in our contest! How about you?
 * Leo: Well, I haven't done anything too special yet, but she's thanked me many times. I have a tally here. Shall we count them?
 * Kana: WOW! That's so many!
 * Leo: Yes. I imagine this is not so abnormal for a doting husband and a loving wife though.
 * Kana: Hmph... Well, I'm still not going to lose! Here, see! I recorded all mine too! And the total is... um...
 * Leo: What?! You got the same number as me!
 * Kana: I did? I did! Haha! I'm definitely gonna win this thing, Papa! I don't even have to work, so I can spend all day doing things for her.
 * Leo: Ah, so that's your secret. And how exactly have you been helping her?
 * Kana: Mostly I've been trying to help around camp! I spend wach morning making arrows for the archers. Then, at lunch, I slice the bear meat and hand out food to the soldiers. Oh, and at night I make sure the mounts are all fed and outfitted for the next day. Plus I do a bunc of other little things whenever I have the time!
 * Leo: That's an enormous amount of work for someone your age. I'm impressed. You really have been growing up, haven't you?
 * Kana: Huh?
 * Leo: Oh, just a thought. It wasn't too long ago you were still in swaddling clothes. Now, all of sudden, you're making real, important contributions to the army. Perhaps I've been treating you too much of a child as well.
 * Kana: Heehee. Yeah, I've been working real hard. Soon there'll be nothing I can't di!
 * Leo: I believe it. I bet your mother has been very proud of all your hard work.
 * Kana: I hope so! And I'm gonna make her even prouder tomorrow!
 * Leo: Hm. Perhaps this will be more challenging than I thought.

 * Kana: *grumble*
 * Leo: Hello, Kana.
 * Kana: Hi, Papa...
 * Leo: What's put you in such a bad mood? I thought you'd still be enjoying your little victory the other day. Or has besting your old man already lost its novelty?
 * Kana: Oh, no. I'm still happy about that, I guess. It's just that I was trying to do things for Mama earlier, but she made me stop. She said I should be spending more time playing around with my friends again. She still thinks I'm just a kid. Haven't I shown her I'm old enough to help around camp?
 * Leo: Ah, so that's it. I wouldn't worry. You've been doing good work, I promise.
 * Kana: Then why doesn't she want me helping with anything?
 * Leo: I think your mother knows full well you're capable of handling such things. But seeing you acting so grown up makes her feel sad.
 * Kana: Huh? Why?
 * Leo: She doesn't want to lose her baby boy. She's very, very proud you're growing up and working so hard. But at the same time, she's worried it means you won't need her anymore. It's a little silly, but it's true. Parents can be funny like that sometimes.
 * Kana: So... what should I do?
 * Leo: I would say to keep helping out around camp, but don't work yourself so hard. Make time to see your friends, play games, go on adventures, and the like. And try to spend some quality time with your mother every now and then. Think you can handle that?
 * Kana: But...
 * Leo: Hm? Do you not want to spend time with your mother?
 * Kana: No, that's not it! It's just... I feel like that stuff is for babies.
 * Leo: No, Kana, it's not for babies. It's for children. And your mother wants you to stay a child for just a little while longer. We both do.
 * Kana: Papa...
 * Leo: We know that you're growing up and that you want more responsibilities. And we know that you're going to be a fine young man someday. But for now... relax. Don't try to grow up so quickly. Trust me on that one.
 * Kana: Thanks, Papa. I'll think real hard about what you said.
 * Leo: Good boy. You know... I think it would be nice if you spent the night in with your mother. I'll go talk to her about it.
 * Kana: Wait! What about you?
 * Leo: Me? No, I've got too much work to--
 * Kana: But, Papa! I thought you wanted me to enjoy my childhood. It wouldn't be much of a childhood without a papa...
 * Leo: Well, when you put it like that, I can't really say no, can I?
 * Kana: You really can't! I'll go tell Mama about our plans!
 * Leo: Sometimes I'm not sure which of us is in charge around here... Heh. It seems I still have much to learn from our little Kana...

 * Leo: Forrest? What's this? Are you sewing again?
 * Forrest: Ah! Father! I'm so sorry... Let me clean this up right away.
 * Leo: There's no need to rush. Aren't you still working on that garment?
 * Forrest: I assumed you didn't want to see this. I know you don't approve of me making feminine clothing...
 * Leo: That's not true at all. Don't you enjoy making clothes? I know I've objected in the past, but that was very wrong of me. I don't ever intend to dissuade you from following your passions.
 * Forrest: I...I'm so happy to hear you say that.
 * Leo: Your sewing skills are most impressive. Perhaps you would consider making something special for me?
 * Forrest: Really?! I would love to!
 * Leo: Excellent. Say, when did you start learning to sew?
 * Forrest: A long time ago... It's funny. I was actually inspired because of a compliment you once paid me. When I was little, I ran around the house in a dress. You saw me and said I looked adorable.
 * Leo: Did I really?
 * Forrest: You don't remember? It was a long time ago. I recall that dress so vividly. It was made from white satin, with tons of pink ruffles and soft lace.
 * Leo: Yes... Yes, I remember it now. If memory serves, it was a hand-me-down from Elise. One of her old summer dresses. Initially, she gave it to a girl taking care of you. But you took one look at it and were instantly enamored.
 * Forrest: I was only trying to satisfy my curiosity at first, but then you praised me. That moment meant a great deal to me. I felt elated. And that's when I took an interest in sewing my own clothing.
 * Leo: Hmm... I never knew.
 * Forrest: Granted, I knew other boys didn't wear dresses or skirts... But I didn't care. I wanted elegant gowns and cute accessories! So I kept sewing and sewing, and I progressively improved. And when I put on a dress and looked at myself in the mirror... I felt like a beautiful princess right out of a storybook. This new passion helped me forget all about my loneliness.
 * Leo: Forrest...
 * Forrest: Before I knew it, my closet was filled with gorgeous clothing. I got to a point where I just couldn't stop. I loved making dresses and wearing them. Even if people don't understand and treat me poorly because of it, I won't stop.
 * Leo: I'm so sorry, Forrest. No one should ever have to feel ashamed of who they are. That's the last thing I want for my beloved son...
 * Forrest: No, Father! Please, it's all right. Knowing you understand me is all I need.
 * Leo: I'm glad to hear it. One day, I will be so proud to have you carry on my title.
 * Forrest: It will be my honor. Everything I am now is thanks to you.

 * Leo: Ah, there you are, Forrest.
 * Forrest: Why hello, Father.
 * Leo: Your mother said I might find you here. Do you come to this church often?
 * Forrest: I like to come where people are fighting. I pray for the soldiers to return home unharmed from the battlefield.
 * Leo: Hmm, I see.
 * Forrest: Did you need me for something?
 * Leo: Do you recall our conversation about you carrying on my title someday? It made me think that perhaps we should discuss the future. Your future.
 * Forrest: What do you mean, Father?
 * Leo: I'm sure you've noticed the tome I carry with me, yes?
 * Forrest: You mean Brynhildr?
 * Leo: Yes, precisely. Someday, this book will be yours.
 * Forrest: What?! Really?
 * Leo: You and I both possess a unique and powerful potential for magic. One day, I believe that you will be able to handle this sacred book. If you can make it your own, I know that—
 * Forrest: Father, wait. May I have some time to think it over first?
 * Leo: Why is that necessary? There should be no room for hesitation. This is the strongest tome in existence.
 * Forrest: That's precisely why I am hesitant. I wish to follow the will of the gods and heal those in need. But Brynhildr can be used very effectively to hurt innocent people. I wouldn't dream of taking on that responsibility without thinking it over.
 * Leo: That's an excellent point...
 * Forrest: All I want to do is be responsible and live up to your expectations, Father. I'm honored that you want me to be your successor one day... But I'm not sure what I want for myself. I hope you're not too disappointed. I just need a bit more time.
 * Leo: Very well. I will respect your wishes. We shall speak soon.
 * Forrest: Thank you, Father.

 * Leo: Good evening, Forrest. Have you given any more thought about what you'd like to do regarding Brynhildr?
 * Forrest: Yes, I have. But I'm afraid I don't have an answer for you yet.
 * Leo: I see... It's noble that you wish to keep people from harm. I certainly don't want to force the book upon you. However, I think there is another way to look at the situation. Powerful magic is dangerous, but it can also be used to protect people.
 * Forrest: Hm? How do you mean?
 * Leo: There are those who will always wish to take advantage of the weak. History has shown us this time and time again. But a strong defense can repel even the most vicious attack. It can sometimes even prevent fighting altogether. Can we agree on that much?
 * Forrest: Certainly. But fear of one's enemy can also lead to reckless action.
 * Leo: True... It's a double-edged sword. The important thing is to be thoughtful and to wield your power responsibly.
 * Forrest: I suppose that's true.
 * Leo: I have great faith in you, Forrest. In my heart, I know that you would use Brynhildr wisely. Considering your compassionate nature and loving heart... You could do far greater things with this tome than I've ever dreamed of.
 * Forrest: I don't know...
 * Leo: Abusing one's power is a great evil in this world. Possibly the greatest. Since receiving this book, I've always tried to keep that in mind. I've often wondered how best to use it. What actions are permitted. As the heir of Brynhildr, I hope you will do the same someday. Control of the earth, gravity, and life itself will be in your hands.
 * Forrest: Hmm... I don't know if I can handle that responsibility right now. But perhaps eventually, once I've matured a bit more... I do hope you will entrust me with Brynhildr when the time is right. Eventually, I would like to walk the same path as you... I need to reflect on what it truly means to possess incredible power. But I would love to protect people from the devastation of war.
 * Leo: I'm pleased, Forrest. I look forward to when that day comes.
