 * Azura: Hello, Avatar. What brings you here?
 * Avatar: I decided to take a little stroll. This breeze feels so heavenly! Mmm!
 * Azura: Yes! All of that sunshine filtering through the leaves reminds me of Castle Shirasagi.
 * Avatar: Haha! I envy you. In Nohr, we didn't have days filled with sunshine!
 * Azura: Oh, Avatar. How stupid of me!
 * Avatar: Huh?
 * Azura: That was thoughtless of me. I never should have brought that up! It should've been you in Hoshido all those years—basking in the sunlight!
 * Avatar: There's no need to feel bad. It's not like you kidnapped me and took me to Nohr!
 * Azura: I know, but I still feel guilty. I lived with the royal family and received all the love that should have been yours.
 * Avatar: Please, Azura, you shouldn't worry. My life hasn't been as hard as you think.
 * Azura: But I lived in Nohr! I know what that was like. It's a cruel place to grow up.
 * Avatar: That's true. Nohr can be a harsh place, but I have happy memories there too.
 * Azura: Really?
 * Avatar: Of course! I was just remembering this one time... Oh, no! I'm late for a meeting! I'm sorry. We'll have to continue this later!
 * Azura: Yes, I'd like that!

 * Azura: Avatar! I hoped to run into you. I'd like to hear more about your time in Nohr.
 * Avatar: Of course! Well, let's see... I lived in the Northern Fortress. It was pretty remote. Hmm... I wasn't allowed to go outside or have any friends.
 * Azura: That sounds terrible!
 * Avatar: Thinking back, it was hard. However, at the time, I never felt lonely. The servants were like family, and my brothers and sisters visited all the time. Elise came by to hang out every single day.
 * Azura: How sweet of her!
 * Avatar: ...And there was a huge library! You'd never run out of books to read in Nohr! Felicia, Jakob, and I even had a little book club. You see? I was too busy to feel alone.
 * Azura: Hmm. The Nohr you describe is so different from the one I remember.
 * Avatar: Well, I spent a lot of time there. It still feels like a part of me...like home.
 * Azura: It almost sounds like you miss it.
 * Avatar: I do. I miss the Northern Fortress. I even miss Castle Krakenburg.
 * Azura: One day, I'm sure you'll get to go back there.
 * Avatar: I hope so, but first, we have to defeat King Garon and end this war for good!

 * Azura: Avatar, you're always outside, aren't you?
 * Avatar: Haha! I came out here to unwind, but it's so windy!
 * Azura: Yes. I think a storm is coming.
 * Avatar: I haven't seen such a dark cloud since I left Nohr.
 * Azura: You must be thinking about how much you miss it. I see that wistful look on your face. It's hard to believe we lived in the same country. Our experiences were so different. I've listened to your stories, but it's hard to picture anything good happening there.
 * Avatar: I think many Hoshidans feel that way.
 * Azura: That's why we must bridge the gap. We must work together to end this war.
 * Avatar: I agree with you completely. We can't call one place good and another bad.
 * Azura: You and I are linked by fate. It's no coincidence that we're both here. If you and I work as a team, surely we can bring about peace.
 * Avatar: You know I'd do anything to make that happen! We're in this together, Azura.

 * Avatar: Oh, no! Ugh!
 * Azura: Avatar? Is that you? What's going on?
 * Avatar: I'm fine! I was getting some water, and I dropped the glass. Be careful! There are broken shards everywhere!
 * Azura: What are you doing up at this hour? You look like you've seen a ghost!
 * Avatar: I-I'm all right. Really. It was just a bad dream.
 * Azura: Goodness! You must have been thrashing about. You're dripping sweat! Poor thing. Here, I'll get you a fresh glass of water.
 * Avatar: *gulp* *gulp* ...Ahhh! Thank you, Azura.
 * Azura: Did you want to talk about it? Your nightmare, I mean...
 * Avatar: Nah. It's no big deal.
 * Azura: Hmm. Your decision to side with Nohr is really troubling you, isn't it?
 * Avatar: Seriously, Azura? How do you figure this stuff out? I can't hide anything from you!
 * Azura: Well, I've suspected this for a few days now. You've been looking dejected. Also... There's the hand-wringing and the sighing and the pouty thing you do with your lips.
 * Avatar: All right. All right. I get it! ...The thing is, I know i made the right decision. I put a lot of thought into it. I really believe this is the best way to bring about peace. ...But I have nightmares every night about the Hoshidans I've killed!
 * Azura: Avatar, you knew this path wouldn't be easy when you chose it, right?
 * Avatar: Yes, that's true.
 * Azura: If you believe this path leads to peace, then you have to keep walking down that road.
 * Avatar: You're right. I can't give up just because it's hard. Thanks, Azura.

 * Avatar: Phew! My patrol is almost done for the night, and everything's nice and quiet. ...Hold up! Did that shadow just move?! *gasp* It's an enemy soldier!
 * Hoshidan: There you are, Avatar...Princess of Nohr! I'll kill you where you stand! GAAH!
 * Avatar: Ha! Nice try, but I'm not going down without a fight!
 * Hoshidan: Ugh! ARGH!
 * Avatar: *pant* *pant*
 * Azura: Avatar! What's going on?! ...Oh, my! Is that a soldier from Hoshido?!
 * Avatar: He slipped through our defenses somehow. Don't worry. He won't be getting back up. I didn't want to kill him, but I had no choice!
 * Hoshidan: ...Y-you killed my whole family! You and the rest of Nohr! I-I'll never forgive you! Enjoy your life while it lasts! Death and punishment are coming for you! Just wait! Gahaha... Gufffpphh...!
 * Azura: Avatar? Are you all right?
 * Avatar: Yes, I'm fine. I escaped without a scratch.
 * Azura: No, I mean - are YOU all right? That was hard to hear.
 * Avatar: I feel terrible. I robbed him of justice! I didn't want to kill him, but I had no choice.
 * Azura: He doesn't know why you sided with Nohr! Give up, and his death will be meaningless.
 * Avatar: It's easy for you to say that. You didn't kill him! Now he'll never avenge his family!
 * Azura: Hmm. I see. In that case, you SHOULD feel terrible.
 * Avatar: Wow. Thanks a lot, Azura.
 * Azura: No, listen... Just because you've chosen this path doesn't mean you have to like it. Get upset. Throw a fit. Cry into your pillow! I'd be worried if his death didn't upset you.
 * Avatar: You're right.
 * Azura: All we can do is keep pressing on. This won't be the last soldier who dies.
 * Avatar: That's why we have to end this thing!
 * Azura: Exactly! Just remember, Avatar... No matter what, I'm right here with you. Whenever you feel lost, I'll try and help you find your way again.
 * Avatar: Thank you, Azura. I don't know what I'd do without you.

 * Azura: Avatar! *gasp* Oh, thank goodness! I found you!
 * Avatar: Azura? What's wrong? ...And why are you so out of breath?
 * Azura: I came to warn you! There's been a breach! Another Hoshidan infiltrated our camp!
 * Avatar: What?!
 * (Hoshidan ninja appears)
 * Hoshidan: You're that princess from Nohr, aren't you?
 * Azura: Oh, no! He's already here!
 * Hoshidan: I'm here to avenge my friends! DIE!
 * Avatar: Uh...
 * Azura: Avatar! What's wrong with you?! He's drawing his weapon! Snap out of it!
 * Avatar: B-but...! (weapon clang)
 * Azura: Avatar? ...Fine! You leave me no choice. I'll fight him for you!
 * Hoshidan: ...Huh? She got me...?! N-no!
 * (Hoshidan falls)
 * Avatar: Azura, are you all right?!
 * Azura: Now that he's finished, I'm perfectly fine. The question is—Avatar, are you all right?
 * Avatar: Yeah. I don't know what happened. I just froze! I'm so sorry. I put both of our lives in danger. I can't believe I'm so pathetic!
 * Azura: You're not pathetic! You're human—like the rest of us. You care about people! I know you're tired of having blood on your hands. I won't let you do it alone anymore. Now my hands are just as stained as yours. When you can't go on, I'll fight for you.
 * Avatar: Do you really mean that?
 * Azura: Absolutely! We're going to walk this bloodstained path until we reach the end.
 * Avatar: All right. I won't hesitate next time. If we're going down, we'll go together.
 * Azura: I'll be by your side every step of the way. I promise.

 * Avatar: A small lake in the middle of the woods... Reminds me of where I once met Azura.
 * Azura: Oh, hello, Avatar. What brings you out here?
 * Avatar: I was looking for you, in fact. I apologize if I interrupted your singing.
 * Azura: It's no trouble. Is there something I can help you with today?
 * Avatar: I actually wanted to talk with you about something I realized. I believe that you and I are in a unique position regarding Nohr and Hoshido. I'm a princess of Hoshido who was raised in Nohr, and... You're a princess of Nohr who was raised in Hoshido.
 * Azura: Ahhh, I see what you mean. I agree that we're pretty unique.
 * Avatar: Because of this background, I think we may have interesting views on the countries. I wanted to talk with you and compare what we each believed.
 * Azura: That is quite interesting...
 * Avatar: We could start with Hoshido. From my perspective, it seems so warm and bright. The land is fertile, and it seems like no one is ever wanting for anything.
 * Azura: A valid observation. This bountifulness makes everyone amiable and respectful.
 * Avatar: And yet, they always have the threat of a Nohrian invasion hanging over them.
 * Azura: Indeed. Which is quite unfair; Nohr is always the aggressor, and without reason.
 * Avatar: That does seem to be the case, but... What if you considered the Nohrian side? Can you try to imagine how the people in Nohr view Hoshido?
 * Azura: I suppose the carefree attitude of Hoshido might look like indifference to others. It could give people the impression that Hoshidans are very self-centered. So long as there is peace, the people in Hoshido seem uninterested in the world.
 * Avatar: I hadn't ever heard that opinion before, but I think it could have some merit. It could be one of the reasons that Nohr dislikes Hoshido so much.
 * Azura: I'm glad to be able to look at this situation with a new perspective. I'm sure we'd benefit from continuing this conversation...
 * Avatar: I agree, though we'll have to continue at another time. The day has only just started, and there is a lot to do. Until next time, Azura!

B Support

 * Azura: Hello, Avatar. You've come calling again?
 * Avatar: Indeed. I was hoping we could continue the conversation we were having the other day.
 * Azura: Of course. We were going to talk about Nohr, were we not?
 * Avatar: Yes. I spent most of my life in Nohr, and I can safely say it was always gloomy. Besides the dark forests, there was very little plant life among the rocky terrain. From what I've read, most of the land is tundra and bad for farming...
 * Azura: I've always heard that the people of Nohr are especially cold to outsiders. It's almost like the world they live in has deeply influenced their mentalities.
 * Avatar: You can dismiss that thinking, though. I know many Nohrians who are kindhearted. Just look at our allies from Nohr if you want proof that that is a misconception.
 * Azura: Interesting. Like with Hoshido, if we look at Nohr with a different perspective... we both learn a bit more. Nohr has invaded other regions many times over the years, but talking about it now... It could be that their biggest motivation has been jealousy or feeling alienated. After all, anyone would get upset if they were often made to feel inferior.
 * Avatar: And if that's how Hoshido made Nohrians feel, even accidentally, it's good to know. It doesn't excuse Nohrian actions, but it does help understand them.
 * Azura: And by understanding, we might be a step closer to bringing peace to the world. If we can find a way to ease the tensions that both nations feel...
 * Avatar: First, we have to eliminate the evil that is getting in the way. But that's for another time, I think. There are many things to do today.
 * Azura: You're right. I'd be glad to continue this conversation later.

A Support

 * Azura: Hi, Avatar. Are you here to continue with our chat from the other day?
 * Avatar: Indeed I am! We've already covered Nohr and Hoshido, so we should talk about—
 * Azura: NO!! Sorry, I mean... You know how it works. You can't say anything here... I can take us there through the lake, and then we can talk.
 * Avatar: Oh, of course. What was I thinking?
 * Azura: We'll be there in just another few moments. ...
 * Azura: And here we are. Easy enough.
 * Avatar: It's still so strange to see this place. It's unlike anything in Hoshido or Nohr.
 * Azura: Now that we're in Valla, we can safely talk about it. It...is what you wanted to talk about, right?
 * Avatar: Yes. I don't know why the curse slipped my mind.
 * Azura: You know, Avatar, it isn't really the Kingdom of Valla that is a problem. The entire conflict is a result of the will of Anankos.
 * Avatar: That's right... Anankos, the King of Valla. I was only able to find the occasional mention of him in ancient texts. Usually he was referred to as a sort of god, right?
 * Azura: Whether he is a demon or a god, I am not sure, but he possesses incredible power. I've heard a legend about how, long ago, a powerful entity gave humans great power. In return, he required their faithfulness. Though this alliance was meant to last for all time, the humans did not honor it. Over time they discovered and acquired power from other sources. As they did this, they slowly abandoned the entity that had aided them. Insulted by this betrayal, the being went berserk.
 * Avatar: And that being... It was Anankos?
 * Azura: There is no way to know for sure, sadly. It would explain why he's out to destroy Nohr and Hoshido, though.
 * Avatar: What a sad story.
 * Azura: Indeed. But it also teaches us an important lesson, I think. We've talked about the conflict between Nohr and Hoshido... This story teaches us what can result from holding a grudge for too long.
 * Avatar: I agree. We have to focus on what we can do to improve the world... It may mean that we sometimes have to fight, but it doesn't always have to. Anytime we can turn an enemy into an ally, we should at least try. (weapon clang)
 * Azura: Indeed. But we've drifted from our topic... We should head back. It's dangerous to be here by ourselves.
 * Avatar: Very well.
 * Azura: Thanks for the conversation, Avatar. Time flies, and I feel like we grow a lot each time we talk.
 * Avatar: I feel the same. I think we've discovered a special connection between us. I'll always cherish this special friendship.


 * Azura: Likewise. Until next time, Avatar. I will do the same. Looking forward to spending more time with you, Avatar.

 * Felicia: *sniffle* Why does this sort of thing always happen to me? I've ruined ANOTHER meal! I thought I was following the recipe perfectly this time...


 * Avatar: Hey, Felicia. What's the matter? Oh, no. Did you start another fire? That's the third time this month...


 * Felicia: Lady Avatar! N-no, not this time... This time I just ruined another meal. Oh, why couldn't I have been more like Flora? At this rate, I'll never be even a middling maid. I just wish I was more useful...


 * Avatar: Oh, thank goodness. That's OK, Felicia. It's just a little spoiled food. No big deal. Buck up! You're plenty helpful to everyone. I promise.


 * Felicia: Sorry, but I don't believe that at all.


 * Avatar: Well, what about that last battle, when you got the enemy's attention by screaming? And then, you not only got them to come after you, but you took them out too! I've never seen such a bold strategy! And such bravery!


 * Felicia: ...


 * Avatar: Felicia?! What's wrong? Why are you curling up on the floor again?!


 * Felicia: You really don't understand, do you? That wasn't a strategy, Lady Avatar! I was just trying to run away from them, and then I got cornered. I had to fight my way out or die! I wasn't being brave. I was terrified.


 * Avatar: Oh, really? Could have fooled me...


 * Felicia: Anyway, that's completely beside the point. I don't want to be a good warrior! We have plenty of soldiers already. I want to be a good maid. I want to be able to clean clothes and make food and wash dishes. Have you seen camp lately? We need that more than we need extra muscle.


 * Avatar: Yeah, I guess. I suppose you don't have to join us on the battlefield.


 * Felicia: But...then I really would be completely worthless to everyone.


 * Avatar: No! Don't say that. You could...er... You could help with... Oh! Look! A Faceless! I have to go.


 * Felicia: ... I'm going back to my corner...

B Support

 * Felicia: Ouch! That stings!
 * Avatar: Hey, Felicia, I just saw a big pile of broken dishes. Did you...? Oh, wow, that's a big cut on your forehead. Are you all right? Here, let me take a look... Hm. We should put some ointment on this.


 * Felicia: I'm so useless! I can't even carry a few stupid dishes around. I wish I could be a proper maid for you. Then you wouldn't have to look after me all the time...


 * Avatar: Aw, come on, Felicia. We're practically family. And family helps each other out. Besides, it's the least I could do for someone who saved my life.


 * Felicia: I saved your life?


 * Avatar: Don't you remember? It was when I had that terrible fever, years ago.


 * Felicia: Oh! Yes! I do remember. It was around the same time Flora and I started serving as your maids, right? But even then, I was a mess. I couldn't care for you properly at all! I had no idea what to do when you fell ill...


 * Avatar: Well, you didn't know the normal ways to treat an illness, it's true... But that didn't matter. You kept my fever down the whole time using your ice powers. They told me you drew the heat out of me and into yourself... They said it was very dangerous. You could have died. Why would you have taken such a risk?


 * Felicia: It was the only thing I could think to do at the time...


 * Avatar: Did you even stop to consider what might have happened to you? I'm grateful, of course, but I never want you sacrificing yourself for my sake, OK? I want you to look out for yourself, too.


 * Felicia: Lady Avatar, you don't understand. I WAS looking out for myself.


 * Avatar: Huh?


 * Felicia: Heehee, never mind! Forget I said anything!


 * (Felicia leaves)


 * Avatar: Felicia! Wait!

A Support

 * Felicia: *gulp* You can do it, Felicia! Just put the pot back in the cabinet... Gently...gently... I'm not the same old Felicia I've always been! I'm Super Felicia! I'm transforming into an elegant maid, like a caterpillar into a butterfly! NO! Argh! I'm g-gonna slip! ... Huh? Why does nothing hurt? I could have sworn I slipped...


 * Avatar: Felicia... Try to be more careful when you're on a ladder.


 * Felicia: Lady Avatar?! You caught me!


 * Avatar: I'm just glad I arrived in time. Now, Felicia, you need to pay more attention to what you're doing. No wonder you get distracted all the time, talking to yourself like that.


 * Felicia: Ack! You heard that?


 * Avatar: Haha. Don't worry about it too much. Let's get you back on the ground. Are you all right?


 * Felicia: Y-yes, I'm fine.


 * Avatar: So, Felicia... I might consider keeping this little incident to myself if you were to tell me something.


 * Felicia: Oh? And what's that?


 * Avatar: What did you mean the other day when you said that you DID look out for yourself?


 * Felicia: Oh...that. Do I have to tell you?


 * Avatar: Yes. I've been wondering about it ever since.


 * Felicia: Well, OK then. I just meant that I look after myself by looking after others.


 * Avatar: What do you mean?


 * Felicia: You were worried that I'd neglect myself by trying too hard to help out. But the thing is...that's actually the best way for me to take care of myself. Because if I didn't help others, I'd feel terrible and useless. I wouldn't be happy. I know I'm a big klutz, but I take pride in working as hard as I can to serve others.


 * Avatar: But don't you find that exhausting?


 * Felicia: Very much so. But it's a meaningful sort of exhaustion. And that makes it all worth it.


 * Avatar: Felicia...you're a very inspiring person, you know that?


 * Felicia: Oh, stop! You're making me blush!


 * Avatar: Still, I don't want you to push yourself too hard. You can't help others very effectively if you're exhausted all the time.


 * Felicia: I know that! Don't worry, I promise not to overwork myself.


 * Avatar: Haha, good. Now if only we could get you to be a bit less of a klutz...


 * Felicia: Hey! Why did you have to go and spoil a perfectly beautiful moment like that?


 * Avatar: Haha, sorry! I couldn't help myself! But I do hope you'll always be there to help us—on and off the battlefield.


 * Felicia: Of course, milady!

 * Avatar: Jakob, can we talk? I've made up my mind about something.
 * Jakob:  Of course, milady. I am yours to mold to your whim. What is the issue?
 * Avatar: Well, the truth is...
 * Jakob: Please, do not hesitate. You have but to ask, and I will assist in any way imaginable. For you, Lady Avatar, I would walk though fire and ice...I would charge into an army of faceless if you asked it of me...I would manually extract the fangs from a dragon's jaw to prevent it's biting you!
 * Avatar: Oh, um, thanks...Jakob. This isn't...anything like that.
 * Jakob: I remind you, Lady Avatar, that my talents are not limited to the battlefield! I can cook, clean, sew, smith, demolish, or bricklay anything you might require.
 * Avatar: I know you're extremely capa-
 * Jakob: Please forgive my immodesty...It is of course thanks to you that I am so accomplished in the butlery arts. Now I feel there's nothing you could ask of me that I couldn't perform with ease!
 * Avatar: Would you just let me finish?! I couldn't wish for a better butler then you, Jakob. I know I can count on you for any service big or small.
 * Jakob: And yet, you clearly have something to tell me that you believe I won't want to hear...
 * Avatar: I want to be independent!
 * Jakob: Independent? ... ...Out of the question.
 * Avatar: What?! But...I'm an adult now. I shouldn't need your help all the time. And hey, aren't I supposed to be the boss in this relationship?
 * Jakob: Yes, but your authority has limits. Among them you must not deny me my reason to live.
 * Avatar: "Reason to live"? Aren't you exaggerating a little?


 * Jakob: Not even slightly, milady. When I was first sent to serve you, I was incompetent to perform even simple tasks. The other servants shunned me, since I invariably created more work for them. You were the only person who took time to talk with and encourage me. I will never forget the kindness you showed me, and I will be indebted to you forever.


 * Avatar: Hmm... When you put it that way, I see your problem... But on the other hand, I want to be able to do things myself so I can help the others.
 * Jakob: A noble goal- but not incompatible with receiving help yourself from time to time.
 * Avatar: ...All right, you've made your point, let's compromise... Teach me how to make a pot of tea.
 * Jakob: Tea? Why?
 * Avatar: I want to learn to help everyone, including you, Jakob. I want to be able to make tea for the person who takes such good care of me. Is that acceptable?
 * Jakob: ...
 * Avatar: Jakob?
 * Jakob: I'm...so touched. To think that my liege, Lady Avatar, would feel this way about me... ...Very well. If you insist on this act of wanton domesticity, I will not stop you.
 * Avatar: Really? That's great!
 * Jakob: But we must be cautious. Tea is dangerous business. Make it only when I'm nearby.
 * Avatar: You got it! Let's find some tea leaves and get started! Thank you so much, Jakob! You're the greatest butler in history!
 * Jakob: My word! ... I hope nothing ill comes of this arrangement. Lady Avatar has no experience in the kitchen. Things could get...apocalyptic...

B Support

 * Avatar: This time I'm going to nail it! I'm going to make a perfect cup of tea for Jakob! So... first I... And then I... Ah! Hot hot hot!
 * Jakob: Are you all right Lady Avatar?
 * Avatar: I'm fine. The kettle boiled over is all. Don't look so worried, Jakob--I can make a pot of tea in my sleep!
 * Jakob: So you have said, but... Forgive me for observing that you have not once managed it since our lessons began.
 * Avatar: That'll be enough truth out of you, mister. You have to at lease admit I'm getting better at handling the kettle, though. All I need to learn now is how to keep the tea from going bitter.
 * Jakob: Quite, but... I'm afraid we'll run out of tea leaves first. And by "we," I mean the nation. Perhaps you should spend more time just watching me make tea. Then, after a while, you can start practicing on your own again?
 * Avatar: But... I don't want to get in your way while you're working, Jakob...
 * Jakob: Thank you, but to be honest, worrying about you is the bigger drain on my time.
 * Avatar: What? How so?
 * Jakob: Look to your left. When we started talking I had washed all the dishes, but... now there's another mountain of them.
 * Avatar: Gods. it's like a sheer cliff face of stemware... I'm sorry Jakob.
 * Jakob: Now, may I please just make the tea so I can tame the savage dish beast sooner?
 * Avatar: You know what? No. Go wash the dishes, and I will make the tea. I can do this!
 * Jakob: Ah. My apologies. I had forgotten just how stubborn you can be.
 * Avatar: ...I'm not listening, but I can still hear you. All right! Time to ignore Jakob and get back to this perfect tea in the making!
 * Jakob: *sigh* Fine. May I at least check your tea when it is finished?
 * Avatar: I suppose this is a but pointless is I don't make it the way you like... All right, Jakob! It's finished! I think I got it this time! .... Probably.
 * Jakob: I shall be the judge of that. First, to examine the color of the tea... (and secretly add some sugar and hot water)... Well done Lady Avatar--the color is passable. Let's have a cup together.
 * Avatar: This is so silly, but I'm really nervous. It's just tea, though... *sip* ... Hey! It's not bitter!
 * Jakob: Ah, delicious! ...Good work, Lady Avatar. You are now certified to make a pot of tea.
 * Avatar: Wonderful! I'm going to go find some other people to try it as well!
 * (Avatar exits)
 * Jakob: Do be careful running with that hot kettle! *sigh* I think I managed to cover up the bitterness. Even if it's a little bit bitter, everyone will gladly drink a cup of tea that she's make... I hope I haven't made a terrible mistake...

 * Jakob: Lady Avatar, may I have a moment?
 * Avatar: Of course, Jakob. And thanks again for teaching me how to make tea!
 * Jakob: As always, I am delighted to serve you.
 * Avatar: You look pretty unhappy for a man who's supposedly delighted. What's wrong?
 * Jakob: I... I need to apologize to you, my lady. I am... truly, deeply sorry.
 * Avatar: Huh? What for?
 * Jakob: The truth is... your tea was quite bitter. Undrinkably so.
 * Avatar: ...
 * Jakob: When you handed me the pot, I secretly added some sugar and more hot water! I shouldn't have done it, and I'm terribly sorry. I just... couldn't stand to watch you do it wrong any longer, so...
 * Avatar: ...Hee hee... Hahahaha!
 * Jakob: Lady Avatar?
 * Avatar: Sorry, Jakob. I knew you did that.
 * Jakob: Y-you did? Then... you won't... punish me for interfering?
 * Avatar: Not at all. You were only trying to help me. I admit... I was too stubborn about it. So, I think that makes us even, don't you?
 * Jakob: You are most magnanimous, milady.
 * Avatar: Well, I also learned something from this: I still need your help to stay on track, Jakob. So... can I count on you to stick with me even when I'm a stubborn mule?
 * Jakob: Of course, I will. I promise to never leave your side. In all honesty... I seem to fall apart when I'm not with you as well.
 * Avatar: It's funny how alike we are.
 * Jakob: That you would even compare us that way! I might... faint with joy...
 * Avatar: No fainting, Jakob! Jakob? Jakob?! Wake up!

 * Avatar: Hey, Jakob. Can you show me how you make that one tea that's kind of spicy?
 * Jakob: Tiger's milk? Certainly, my lady...
 * Avatar: You know... you've been sounding a bit distant lately. Did I offend you somehow?
 * Jakob: Oh... no... You could never...
 * Avatar: Are you all right? Do you have a fever? I've never seen your face so red!
 * Jakob: *sigh* I knew it was only a matter of time before you realized something was wrong. Lady Avatar, I'm deeply sorry, but I can no longer serve as your butler.
 * Avatar: What? You've got to be joking! Just the other day, we were saying how we'll always stick together! Where is this coming from?! I... I really did do something to offend you, didn't I?
 * Jakob: You have my oath that that is not the case. It's... just... *mumble*
 * Avatar: Huh? I can't hear you when you mumble, Jakob.
 * Jakob: ... I... I've... I've fallen in love with you!
 * Avatar: Jakob...
 * Jakob: However, it is not proper for a butler to be in love with his mistress. As such, I must ask to be reassigned to new duties far away from you, my lady...
 * Avatar: No! Ou-out of the question! I can't imagine going through each day without you! I need you, Jakob... I...
 * Jakob: My lady?
 * Avatar: I... love you, too.
 * Jakob: What? What... do you mean?
 * Avatar: What do you mean, what do I mean? I've always liked you, of course... But... recently you've come to mean so much more to me...
 * Jakob: I must be dreaming. There is no other explanation for this. Only in my dreams would Lady Avatar look at me this way... with her cheeks all flushed...
 * Avatar: Will you stop it?! You're embarrassing me! Besides, you're just as red as I am! Anyway, request granted: you are hereby fired as my butler. Would you consider being my husband instead?
 * Jakob: YES! ...I mean, if it pleases Your Ladysh- I mean yes, I would like nothing more than to be your husband.
 * Avatar: And we'll be together always...
 * Jakob: I love you... I was always afraid to say it, but from now on I will tell you every single day. I love you.

 * Avatar: Hello, Silas. Do you have some time?
 * Silas: Hm? Oh, hi there, Avatar. Need Something?
 * Avatar: Sort of. You mentioned that we ere childhood friends but... I'm trying to figure out how you remembered that when I didn't.
 * Silas: Oh, is that all? I wouldn't worry about it. Those old memories slip away for everyone.
 * Avatar: But isn't it strange that I'd forget someone so close to me? You became a castle knight just so our paths would cross again... While I, on the other hand, forgot you existed at all.
 * Silas: Really, though... I wish you wouldn't worry about it. You remember now, and that's all that matters to me. My hard work paid off, didn't it? I became a castle knight, and here we are. I'm grateful for the chance to make up for lost time.
 * Avatar: Grateful, huh? That's a good way of looking at it, Thanks, Silas.
 * Silas: There's the cheer I remember. Oh, hey! Why don't we go take a little trip together sometime?
 * Avatar: Hmm. It sounds fun, but where should we go?
 * Silas: Someplace you always wanted to see. When we were young, you had a long list of places you wished you could go. We couldn't go to any of them at the time, but nothing's stopping us now!
 * Avatar: It sounds nice... but I don't think we should go far, given the circumstances.
 * Silas: Hmm, you're right. But don't worry. I'll find a way to make it work.
 * Avatar: Do you have something up your sleeve?
 * Silas: Haha, sorry if I made my plans seem grander than they are. If we can't go far, we'll limit our options to places within reach. You might not remember all the places on your old list, but I do.

 * Silas: Avatar! I need to talk to you about our upcoming trip.
 * Avatar: Hello, Silas! Did you draw up the list?
 * Silas: Well...about that... I started writing down all the places I could remember you wanting to visit.
 * Avatar: Goodness! That's...a long list...
 * Silas: Yeah. The memories just kept flooding back... It got a little out of hand.
 * Avatar: I was desperate to get out into the world, wasn't I? I can't believe you remembered all these so many years later...
 * Silas: Haha, well, I've always had a keen memory. So, where on the list do you want to go? Pick any one you like.
 * Avatar: These aren't really "places" as such, are they? "A town plaza"..."a street food stall"..."a festival"... Did I really say I wanted to go see "bugs"?!
 * Silas: That's how I remember it.
 * Avatar: Then I'll defer to your memory. It's hard to decide on one, though.
 * Silas: Take your time. And you don't need to limit yourself to one, you know. We can take multiple trips.
 * Avatar: It really is good of you to do all this for me... It's all the more mysterious why I would have forgotten about you.
 * Silas: For goodness sake, are you still brooding over that? Why don't we see if anyone in your retinue knows? They've been with you for a long time. One of them must know why, right?
 * Avatar: Yes...though I'm anxious they might have some reason for not mentioning you...
 * Silas: Don't worry, Avatar. I'll come with you. Whatever they say, I'll stand by your side.

 * Avatar: Silas...I'm really sorry about the other day.
 * Silas: What, for what we found out? It was a long time ago, Avatar. No need to be sorry. Though, I'll admit, the truth isn't what I expected.
 * Avatar: It was a little embarrassing to learn how much I cried after I couldn't see you again.
 * Silas: I can see why they tried to take your mind off me, though. I guess they simply did too good a job...
 * Avatar: That's putting it mildly. I suppose the feelings of one noble boy weren't a priority.
 * Silas: Haha, next to the young princess? I'd have done the same thing in their shoes.
 * Avatar: You have a big heart, Silas. Though, I feel my offense in forgetting about you was worse than any of theirs...
 * Silas: I'm actually relieved by what we learned.
 * Avatar: What? Why?
 * Silas: You cried every day because you weren't allowed to see me, right? Doesn't that prove I was really your closest friend?
 * Avatar: Yes, I suppose so.
 * Silas: You should know that I have no regrets about taking you outside those walls. Nothing makes me happier than helping you in whatever way I can.
 * Avatar: Silas... You're a better friend than I deserve.
 * Silas: Well, now that the past is laid to rest, it's time to focus on the present!
 * Avatar: Well said!
 * Silas: Did you decide yet what you want to see? Wait... damn, I forgot the list! Wait here just a second, and I'll be back with it.

 * Avatar: Whoops. You seemed miles away, so I was curious why.
 * Silas: W-well... You see... I was thinking about how much you've changed since we were little.
 * Avatar: Oh? Was I different then?
 * Silas: Not so much in personality, but... You're a lot... prettier.
 * Avatar: Huh?! Are you... only noticing this now?
 * Silas: No... it was the first thing that struck me upon our reunion.
 * Avatar: Really? Strange, you never mentioned it before.
 * Silas: How could I?! How could I tell you it was love at first sight...
 * Avatar: D-did you just say... love?!
 * Silas: When we were young, you were my best friend and constant playmate. But now we're adults, and... you've grown into quite the lady. The shock of seeing you this way was an arrow right through the heart. But I was so overjoyed to see you that it took time to realize what I was feeling. There's no mistaking it anymore, though. I love you, Avatar.
 * Avatar: Silas...
 * Silas: Haha, so typical of me to fall in love at first sight and take weeks to realize it.
 * Avatar: D-don't say that...
 * Silas: Hmm? Wait, why are you blushing?
 * Avatar: Why do you think?
 * Silas: Oh... Look, I know you're out of my league. I hope we can at least stay friends. If I can't be with you, I at least want to keep fighting at your side.
 * Avatar: You don't have to worry about that. I... have those same feelings for you.
 * Silas: You do?!
 * Avatar: Yes. Ever since our paths crossed again... I might not have remembered who you were, but I still felt drawn to you. For a while, I thought that was our old friendship surfacing again... But the more time I spent with you, the more I realized that wasn't it at all. I suppose you could say it was love at first sight for me too.
 * Silas: Well... how do you like that... Does this mean we can be a couple?
 * Avatar: There's no one else I'd rather be with. It's you and me... forever.
 * Silas: Agreed! I'll never let anyone take you away from me ever again!
 * Silas: I've always cherished you as my best friend, but now you're so much more. I love you, and I'm honored to be your partner in this life. I promise to never leave you again.

 * Kaze: *sigh*
 * Avatar: Is something wrong, Kaze? And, um... what's with all those radishes?
 * Kaze: Ah, Lady Avatar. Greetings. A young lady gave me these radishes as thanks for helping her find her way.
 * Avatar: Looks like we're having a radish feast tonight! That's pretty great, right?
 * Kaze: I must disagree. It is not "great."
 * Avatar: No? What's the matter? Do you have something against radishes?
 * Kaze: It feels wrong being rewarded for such simple kindness as giving directions. This is not the first time something like this has happened, either...
 * Avatar: It's... not?
 * Kaze: I can't figure out why, but... I find I'm often approached by women who wish to speak with me or give me things.
 * Avatar: Oh, is that so?
 * Kaze: It gets worse. If I speak even a few words, they'll often start shrieking or hugging me. Sometimes, they'll give me letters or garments of clothing or, like today, food. None of our allies act that way, of course. Just strangers. It's... frustrating.
 * Avatar: Heheheh, it sounds to me like you're just popular with the ladies!
 * Kaze: Popular? With... the ladies?
 * Avatar: Exactly. Those women are just... well, they're curious about you. It's because you're kind yet mysterious. Being a ninja doesn't hurt either. In fact, when I was in town the other day, I overheard one of the local women. She said, "That sorrowful look on Kaze's gorgeous face is waaay too dreamy!"
 * Kaze: Argh, I wish you hadn't told me that. I appreciate the praise, but... I would prefer to focus on my duties and keep such silly distractions to a minimum.
 * Avatar: Hahaha, you're so serious all the time. Most men dream of this kind of attention!
 * Kaze: I'm simply behaving as any self-respecting ninja should. That's all there is to it. In any case, they are mistaken. I'm not a good man.
 * Avatar: Why would you say that?
 * Kaze: ... It's nothing. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have an urgent matter to attend to.

 * Kaze: Er... And why would you like to do that, exactly?
 * Avatar: I've been worried about you... Ever since you told me you weren't a good person. It sounded like something's really been bothering you, and I want to help. I want you to see the good in you!
 * Kaze: That's...
 * Avatar: So! What do you say?
 * Kaze: I thank you for your concern, but I am fine, really. Now, if you'll excuse me...

 * Avatar: There you are! Ha! I know you couldn't hide from me!
 * Kaze: I would prefer it if you didn't scream like that. What if there were enemies nearby? Never give away your position when isolated from the main body of the army. Please, for all our sakes, try to refrain from such behavior in the future.
 * Avatar: You're right, I'm sorry. I just wanted to find you so badly... Thank you for coming back. I know you did it because you were worried for my safety. Which just goes to show how good of a guy you are!
 * Kaze: Why do you insist on saying such things?

 * Kaze: ... You have a kind heart, Lady Avatar.

 * Kaze: Lady Avatar, there's something I haven't told you about myself. Something for which I cannot be forgiven, no matter how much I wish to repent.
 * Avatar: Huh?
 * Kaze: I am a worthless servant. It is my fault that you were kidnapped and taken to Nohr.
 * Avatar: Your fault? What did you do, Kaze?
 * Kaze: We had all traveled to Cheve that day, and I noticed Nohrian forces in the city. The same forces that would later kill Sumeragi and take you away. But I was young, and I didn't know what their presence meant... so I said nothing.
 * Avatar: It's not your fault, Kaze. You were a child! How could you have known what would happen?
 * Kaze: I come from a long line of ninja that have always served the Hoshidan royalty... I began my training at an early age. If anyone should have known, it was me. For such incompetence, I should have paid with my life. There's no way I can ever heal the suffering I've caused you and your birth family. I should not even be allowed to speak with you... I am so sorry, Lady Avatar.
 * Avatar: Stop! You did nothing wrong! If anything, I should be apologizing to you!
 * Kaze: Milady?
 * Avatar: I'm so sorry, Kaze, You must have been tortured by this for years... I never knew... and I've acted so inconsiderately toward you. But... I believe now is the time for us to forgive and move forward. We cannot allow the rest of our lives to be defined by past mistakes. Besides, you were the one who returned me, were you not?
 * Kaze: Returned you?
 * Avatar: Yes. It was you who traveled to the Flame Tribe to come get me. And you were the one by my side when I returned to Hoshido. It was you, Kaze. You gave me a chance to be with my birth family again.
 * Kaze: But-
 * Avatar: Kaze, you are not at fault. And even if you were, you have repaid your debt to me. So, please, let us never talk of this again. Will you promise me that?
 * Kaze: ...
 * Avatar: Well?
 * Kaze: ... Yes, I promise.
 * Avatar: Good.
 * Kaze: Heh.
 * Avatar: Are you... laughing at me?
 * Kaze: It's just... you remind me so much of Lady Mikoto. It warms my heart.
 * Avatar: I remind you of my mother? How so?
 * Kaze: When Lady Mikoto became queen, she forgave me and allowed me to serve her. I wonder if she somehow foresaw that her child would do the same one day. Perhaps you were the one I was always meant to serve.
 * Avatar: Hm? What do you mean?
 * Kaze: As you must have noticed, all members of Hoshido's royal family have two retainers. These retainers are chosen from the best of the castle soldiery. When the time is right, they pledge their allegiance to a single lord. For example Orochi and Reina both served the late Queen Mikoto. Subaki and Hana serve Lady Sakura. Hinata and Oboro serve Lord Takumi. Azama and Setsuna serve Lady Hinoka. And Kagero and my twin brother, Saizo, serve Lord Ryoma.
 * Avatar: Yes, I'm aware. Wait. So that means...
 * Kaze: Yes. Though I have served the royal family for some time, I have no single master. I've always been troubled by this fact, but perhaps Lady Mikoto arranged it... so that someday, when the time was right, I would serve you, Lady Avatar. If you will have me, then I will pledge myself to you.
 * Avatar: I-
 * Kaze: Do you accept?
 * Avatar: Kaze... I do. I accept your offer.
 * Kaze: Now, as your retainer, I hereby vow to protect you with my life.
 * Avatar: Thank you. I pray it never comes to that, my friend.

 * Kaze: Lady Avatar, I have realized something since I became your retainer. You find immerse satisfaction in teasing others about their past failures.
 * Avatar: I wouldn't say "immense" satisfaction... Besides, I've hardly had a moment alone since you made your pledge. If we couldn't introduce a little levity to our relationship, I think I'd go crazy.

 * Kaze: ... You are a cruel mistress, milady.
 * Avatar: What? But I was complimenting you!
 * Kaze: You make me want to say things... Things best kept to myself.
 * Avatar: Oh? Like what?
 * Kaze: I have pledged myself to you as your retainer. I am your servant and your bodyguard. Therefore, under no circumstances am I allowed to say what I am about to. I love you, Lady Avatar.
 * Avatar: Oh!
 * Kaze: I have sworn to serve and protect you. And I would give my life to preserve your own. But...while duty would be enough, it is not for duty alone that I made these vows. I made them because I do not think a life without you would be worth living. Is there any chance that you would honor me with your love?
 * Avatar: *sniffle*
 * Kaze: Lady Avatar?! Why are you crying?
 * Avatar: I'm sorry...I'm just so filled with joy, I can't help it.
 * Kaze: Joy?
 * Avatar: Yes! Don't you see? I feel the same way about you! I want to be with you. I love you Kaze. I will consent to be yours if you will be mine in return.

 * Avatar: What sort of animals did you used to hunt?
 * Mozu: Well, a nice big boar was always welcome when you'd bring it back to the village. They're good eating, and you can put most parts of it to use. They're pretty rowdy, though, so they're not easy hunting. Around my village, you weren't a real hunter until you'd bagged yourself a boar.
 * Avatar: Did you ever get one?
 * Mozu: Surely did! On my first try, too! I forgot my bow though, so I had to finish it off with a knife.
 * Avatar: Just a knife?!
 * Mozu: Yep. My fondest memory of hunting, though, isn't boars. It's bears.
 * Avatar: B-bears?! You caught a bear on your own?!
 * Mozu: Surely did.
 * Avatar: How did you manage that?! Their sharp claws...their immense size...!
 * Mozu: Oh, those aren't the things you gotta worry about. It's their smarts.
 * Avatar: No...no, I'd still be most intimidated by their size, I think...
 * Mozu: They can dodge arrows and track you with their powerful noses. They're some real tough prey. This old man in our village was good at hunting them, though. He had some technique that'd been passed down over generations. I really looked up to him and tried to figure out his moves for myself. Man, that really takes me back...

 * Shura: Yes. I feel like I have learned anew the value of companionship. It helps you see things from other perspectives. You learn things. Seeing our comrades work through their struggles, I realized I could do the same. And that I in fact should do the same. I should not worry about damaging your honor or that of your comrades. I should be focusing upon what I can do to help.
 * Avatar: Shura...
 * Shura: After all, the walls of Kohga still must be rebuilt. And self-pity makes for poor bricks.
 * Avatar: I believe in you, Shura.
 * Shura: Heh.
 * Avatar: Something funny?
 * Shura: Oh, no. Not really. I just never expected to hear myself talk like this again. I sound like a bushy-tailed, optimistic little youngster.
 * Avatar: There's nothing wrong with a little optimism. Takes a little gray out of your hair, doesn't it?
 * Shura: Ha! I wish. Anyways, thank you for helping me to remember what's really important. If you ever need anything from now on, please know you can rely on me.
 * Avatar: Thank you. I will be counting on you.

 * Shura: No, I'm in perfect health.
 * Avatar: So what's bothering you?
 * Shura: Do you have a dream?
 * Avatar: A dream?
 * Shura: For a long time, I lost sight of my dreams. When you are so focused on survival, you don't have time for dreams. But after I met you, they came back to me, stronger and more vivid than ever. The dream of a reborn Kohga has filled me with new life. But there is another dream that has come to me as well. I know it is one that will never come true. And yet...I cannot seem to give it up.
 * Avatar: Shura, I don't believe there are dreams that can't come true.
 * Shura: That's very naive of you, if you don't mind my saying so, milady. I'm too old to believe in such fantasies.
 * Avatar: Then maybe you should have someone who isn't? Someone who believes in you. Someone who you can share your dream with.
 * Shura: Someone I can share my dreams with?
 * Avatar: Yes. Maybe even someone like...me. What is your other dream, Shura?
 * Shura: Avatar, will you be with me?
 * Avatar: Huh?
 * Shura: In my dreams, you are there with me when I rebuild Kohga. In my dreams, we live the rest of our lives together, in peace. You see...I have fallen in love with you. And I dream you will return my love.

 * Shura: Avatar, do you share this dream with me?
 * Avatar: Shura...
 * Shura: I-it is all right if you do not wish to. I understand—
 * Avatar: I think it's a beautiful dream.
 * Shura: Then...
 * Avatar: Yes, I would love to share in your dreams. I am yours, if you will be mine.

 * Avatar: Hello, Ryoma. I have a favor to ask of you.
 * Ryoma: Certainly. How can I help?
 * Avatar: Well, I don't have many memories from before I was taken to Nohr. I was just wondering if you had any that you wouldn't mind sharing with me...
 * Ryoma: Hmm. Yes, I suppose I do. They're not all happy, I'm afraid.
 * Avatar: That's OK. I just feel as though there's a...void...in my mind. I'd like to hear a little bit about what it was like growing up in Hoshido. And stories about the whole family... Hinoka, Takumi, Azura, and Sakura.
 * Ryoma: Very well. I anticipated this day would come, actually. And I have something for you.
 * Avatar: Oh? What is it?
 * Ryoma: I think I'll hang onto it for a little while longer. It will hold more meaning if I give it to you later.
 * Avatar: All right. I suppose I can be patient.

 * Avatar: Good day, Ryoma. Would now be a good time to chat?
 * Ryoma: Ah, Avatar. Yes, I suppose I have some time right now. But where to begin? Hmm... Ah! Perhaps I could start with the siblings. Like little Hinoka...the crybaby.
 * Avatar: Hinoka...a crybaby? I can't see it.
 * Ryoma: Yes, well, she has matured tremendously. Now she's an excellent model soldier. Takumi, on the other hand...has not reached the same level of maturity.
 * Avatar: But Takumi seems so strong and self-assured.
 * Ryoma: Perhaps, but remember that very hard substances are often brittle. Takumi's emotions are fragile. He needs to work on his mental fortitude. That said, I believe in him. I think he has a promising future ahead.
 * Avatar: I see.
 * Ryoma: As for Azura, she's always been a bit distant. Even as a child. She's kind and wise, but I wish she knew how to open up a little bit.
 * Avatar: It's fascinating to hear your perspective like this. Please, continue!
 * Ryoma: Certainly. Let's see, where was I... Ah, Sakura. She's a gentle soul. Always worrying about others. My hope for her is that she can learn to be a bit more selfish. It would serve her well.
 * Avatar: Thank you, Ryoma. I really appreciate your insights. I think it's wonderful that you've spent so much time thinking about your family.
 * Ryoma: Well, as the eldest, I suppose I feel a certain responsibility. And, of course, I spend a great deal of time in self-reflection. I'm not without my faults.
 * Avatar: Well, you're human. Nobody's perfect. But you're a wise and caring older brother, Ryoma. Everyone looks up to you.
 * Ryoma: Thank you, Avatar. That means a lot coming from you.
 * Avatar: I just wish I knew more about my own background.
 * Ryoma: Yes. Your story is a troubling one. I hope that I can help you put a few of the pieces together. But I'm afraid even I don't know nearly the whole of it.
 * Avatar: Thank you, Ryoma. I really appreciate it.

 * Ryoma: Hello, Avatar. I've noticed that you seem a bit down lately. Is anything the matter?
 * Avatar: Hmm? No, I'm fine. Why do you ask?
 * Ryoma: Are you sure? You can confide in me. You seemed a bit... forlorn... when we last spoke.
 * Avatar: Well, if I'm being totally honest... I have truly enjoyed hearing your stories about the past. But they've also made me sad. I feel like I've missed out on so much.
 * Ryoma: So that's what's weighing you down. It's important to remember that we can't change the past. We can only try to shape our future. So, if you don't have any memories, you just have to make new ones. And we're all here together now.
 * Avatar: Thank you, Ryoma. Those are wise words.
 * Ryoma: You're welcome. And here's something else that may cheer you up. Remember how I said I had something for you? Well, I think the time is right. This is from all of us.
 * Avatar: Whoa. That's quite a ring.
 * Ryoma: Indeed. The four of us had it made for you a long time ago. We vowed to give it to you upon our eventual reunion. And here you are, safely returned to us.

 * Avatar: Hello, Ryoma! Do you have a few minutes to spare today?
 * Ryoma: Of course, I always have time for you. What's on your mind?
 * Avatar: Well, I just keep thinking about this ring. It's kind of like... my first family heirloom.
 * Ryoma: Er, y-yes. I suppose it is.
 * Avatar: Is something the matter?
 * Ryoma: A family heirloom? Ah... y-yes... er... No. I am sorry, Avatar. There is something I must tell you. Father... Queen Mikoto... please forgive me.
 * Avatar: Ryoma?
 * Ryoma: I owe you an apology. I have not been honest with you. Nor with the others. The truth is... I am not your brother.
 * Avatar: What do you mean?
 * Ryoma: Exactly what I said. You and I are not related by blood.
 * Avatar: How can this be?
 * Ryoma: My father, King Sumeragi, told me, and me along, the truth of your birth. You see, many years ago, Queen Mikoto came to Hoshido, asking my father for help. With her was an infant she had given birth to in her homeland. That infant was you, Avatar. King Sumeragi knew you were not his child. But because you were the child of the woman he loved, he raised you as his own. And it was not long before obligation turned into a deep and abiding love. You meant as much to him as any of us did. I promise you.
 * Avatar: So... he took care of me -- died protecting me -- knowing I was another man's child? Then... he WAS my father. Whatever my blood. But then the question remains. Who was my birth father?
 * Ryoma: I don't know. King Sumeragi never shared that detail with me. I'm not certain even he knew.
 * Avatar: I see...
 * Ryoma: I am sorry I kept it secret for so long, but I felt I had to. It was what Father wanted. He'd never have wanted you to feel like he loved you any less than he did us.
 * Avatar: So then why are you telling me this now? What changed?
 * Ryoma: I fell in love with you.
 * Avatar: Ryoma!
 * Ryoma: I could not lie to myself any longer, Avatar. I want to be the one to stand by your side for the rest of your life. I could not live without you. You are the only woman I have ever loved like this.
 * Avatar: I-I see. Are you ready to hear my answer?
 * Ryoma: Yes. I am prepared.
 * Avatar: I admire you tremendously. You are a strong and kind man and a natural leader. You will make a great king and will rule as wisely as your father. I know it. And... I want to be with you while you do it. As your queen. As your wife. I love you too, Ryoma.
 * Ryoma: I am glad. You have made me so happy. My heart sings with joy.
 * Avatar: You are the most precious person in the world to me. Please, stay with me. Forever.
 * Ryoma: I will, my love. I promise it. Our past may be broken, but our future is stronger than iron. Take my hand...

 * Avatar: Hm? Was that a whinny just now? Oh, I think I see Hinoka. It must be her pegasus I heard...
 * Hinoka: There you go... Feels good, doesn't it? Oh, don't get your feathers all ruffled! It just makes it harder to brush you... We've been partners for a while; it was so long ago that I chose to be a sky knight... Hm?
 * Avatar: Oh, sorry, Hinoka. I didn't mean to interrupt you...
 * Hinoka: Hi, Avatar. It's not a problem at all. What can I do for you?
 * Avatar: Well, I overheard you talking about when you decided to become a sky knight... I'm actually curious why you did it.
 * Hinoka: I don't know if it's a story I should tell you. ... No, that's wrong. Now that we're reunited, I can share it with you. After you were kidnapped, I was so mad, I didn't know what to do with myself. On several occasions, I snuck out of the castle, thinking I could come save you.
 * Avatar: Really?!
 * Hinoka: But I was always stopped, either by castle staff, Ryoma, or even Mother herself. I was just so angry that those Nohrians had stolen you away from us... And I was mad at myself for not being able to do anything about it.
 * Avatar: Hinoka...
 * Hinoka: As I got older, I realized that I was trying to do the impossible. I was so young; there was no way I could walk through all of Nohr and save you. And then one day I saw a pegasus flying...
 * Avatar: So that was when you decided to become a sky knight?
 * Hinoka: Indeed. That decision has driven almost everything I've done since then. It's really made me into the person I am today -- much stronger and determined. I suppose I should thank you, Avatar, even though I wish you'd been spared it.
 * Avatar: I'm the one who should be thanking you. If things hadn't turned out exactly as they did, I'd have needed you to save me! Thank you, Hinoka.

 * Avatar: Hello there, Hinoka. Tending to your pegasus again?
 * Hinoka: Indeed. He's always been my partner on the battlefield, after all. It's important that I show him my appreciation whenever I can.
 * Avatar: You were still quite young when you decided to become a sky knight, right? It's obviously a dangerous job... Did anyone try to talk you out of it?
 * Hinoka: Oh, definitely. Many people did. Your mother more than most.
 * Avatar: What? Even my mother? She was worried for your safety, even though you weren't related?
 * Hinoka: Indeed. It even surprised me how strongly opposed to the idea she was. She tried all manner of things to convince me to change my mind. Begging, bribing...
 * Avatar: How did you respond?
 * Hinoka: Well, I was still a very young girl... Ryoma and the others accepted her as Father's wife and our new mother, but I... I didn't do that very easily. As a result, I was cruel to her—more cruel than she could ever deserve.
 * Avatar: Oh, no! What happened? What did you do?
 * Hinoka: I told her that she wasn't my mother and had no place ordering me around. Of course, I apologized later, but it's impossible to take back what was said. I still remember how her face changed right as the words left my mouth. I'll probably regret having said that for the rest of my life...
 * Avatar: That was years ago, though! I'm sure she forgave you long ago. You were young and didn't know any better. I think you can forgive yourself...
 * Hinoka: No, it's better that I continue to carry this burden with me as a reminder, I think.

 * Hinoka: Avatar? What are you doing here?
 * Avatar: Gah! H-hello, Hinoka! I didn't see you...
 * Hinoka: You jumped a foot in the air, Avatar. Why were you so startled?
 * Avatar: No reason! No reason... I'm fine, I just wasn't expecting you to be there. I was...wrapped up in talking to your pegasus about you.
 * Hinoka: You were? What were you saying to him?
 * Avatar: I was telling him how lucky he was to have someone who cares so much. Even though becoming a sky knight has really defined who you are... you were just as caring a person before.
 * Hinoka: ...
 * Avatar: I'm incredibly grateful for how much you've cared for me. I feel like I need to give a little back, too.

 * Avatar: Yes, I can see that. But it seems you just don't care to get to know me at all.
 * Takumi: You hit the nail on the head. I know I SHOULD trust you, since we're siblings. But we were raised worlds apart, so we don't really have much in common after all.
 * Avatar: I see. You remember, of course, our shared history. And that we are fighting for the same cause.
 * Takumi: And YOU remember, of course, that you grew up with the enemy.
 * Avatar: Be that as it may, surely I have proven my loyalty by now. There's got to be a way to convince you... Hmm. How would you feel about training me on the bow?
 * Takumi: I don't see the point.

 * Takumi: *sigh* Fine, I guess we can take a break.
 * Avatar: Whew. I must admit, I'm grateful for the rest. It's harder to bend a bow than I imagined.
 * Takumi: Well, of course. Did you think it would be easy?
 * Avatar: To be honest...sort of. But, that's only because you make it look so easy, Takumi.
 * Takumi: Are you being sarcastic?
 * Avatar: No, I mean it. Watching you, it looks effortless. But when I pick up the bow... I realize that I need to work on my stance, my strength, and my concentration. Still, I've already improved. Wouldn't you agree?
 * Takumi: Yes. You are making progress. But make no mistake—you have a long way to go!
 * Avatar: Of course. So, why don't we get back to work?

 * Takumi: I said you're done. You can't hit anything with an injury like that. And besides...you'll get other chances.

 * Takumi: No. You're actually really talented. And as much as I hate to do this...I have to apologize. I've seen your dedication to Hoshido with my own two eyes. So, please forgive me for doubting you in the first place. I will gladly continue your training as soon as you're ready.

 * Takumi: No. I LIKE you. Like, I love you.
 * Avatar: Huh?!
 * Takumi: I know. I'm sorry. I never meant for this to happen. You know that, right? Remember how surly I was to you?
 * Avatar: I know, Takumi, but...this isn't...
 * Takumi: I know what you're thinking, but before you say anything, you should read this.
 * Avatar: Hm? A letter?
 * Takumi: Yes. From Queen Mikoto. It...explains the circumstances of your birth. Specifically...it says you are not the child of King Sumeragi.
 * Avatar: I'm not?! B-but how? What about Sakura?! And Ryoma? Hinoka?
 * Takumi: Sumeragi was my father, and all theirs as well. But...he wasn't yours.
 * Avatar: And how long have you had this letter without telling me?
 * Takumi: The queen gave it to me when you returned to Hoshido, but I only opened it recently. She said to read it if I ever worried about who I was in love with. At the time, it seemed bizarre...but she did have the gift of prophecy. She must have known that someday I would fall in love with you. That it was...fated.
 * Avatar: Then you're telling the truth...
 * Takumi: The letter says she brought you to Hoshido as an infant, seeking help. And so Father took her in—and you as well, even knowing you were not his child. Having fallen in love with your mother, he decided he would raise you as his own. But it was not long before he loved you as much as any of us.
 * Avatar: He did all this—even died for me—knowing I was another man's? Then he WAS my father, whatever my blood. But the question remains... Who was my real father?
 * Takumi: It...um. It doesn't say.
 * Avatar: Oh.
 * Takumi: I'm sorry. I struggled with whether or not to tell you any of this. After all, now that you know, we can never go back to being siblings. But I couldn't simply pretend to be your brother for the rest of my life. Especially not with the way I felt about you. It is shameful, I know.
 * Avatar: It's all right, Takumi. I'm glad you told me.
 * Takumi: So...does this change anything? About your feelings toward us, I mean.
 * Avatar: ...No. In the short time we've spent together, I feel I've gotten to know you all so well. I care for you. We may not be family, but you are all still very precious to me.
 * Takumi: I can't tell you how relieved I am to hear you say that.
 * Avatar: Although...there is one change. My feelings for you are no longer forbidden. I love you too, Takumi.
 * Takumi: What?!
 * Avatar: When you said that you liked me, my heart started racing. But I didn't want it to show because I didn't know about Father. Everything is so confusing.
 * Takumi: That's right. But in a confusing world, we must cling to the few fragments of truth we share. And the truth is that I love you, Avatar, and you love me. Let's build a future on that.
 * Avatar: Y-yes. I think you're right. Let's give it a shot. What's the worst that could happen?

 * Avatar: Oh, haha... sorry. I'm just tired out from looking over my shoulder all the time.
 * Saizo: What?
 * Avatar: You still don't trust me, do you?
 * Saizo: You've given me no reason to. I'm sure you'd love for me to stop watching you, but I know better. I have on eye, and it's staying fixed directly on you. ... Though I'm forced to admit this is a problem I can't overlook.
 * Avatar: What problem? What are you talking about?!
 * Avatar: Woah!
 * Saizo: Quiet. Where do you need there?
 * Avatar: Those are my things! I can carry them perfectly well myself.
 * Saizo: That's not what I saw. You are, however tenuously, an ally. I'm not so cruel as to let you lug these around by yourself. It is dishonorable to turn a blind eye to one in need of help.
 * Saizo: Are you impugning my honor?
 * Avatar: N-not at all... Thank you, Saizo.
 * Saizo: Don't think this means you're off the hook. More importantly, hurry and tell me where this trunk goes.
 * Avatar: Oh, er... that shed over there.
 * Saizo: Understood. This will only take a moment...
 * Avatar: Was he in such a hurry to leave because he was embarrassed...?
 * Avatar: Hah. Saizo, embarrassed... There's a mental picture for you.

 * Saizo: What do you think you're doing? Don't give my presence away like that.
 * Avatar: Ah, hello, Saizo. I knew you couldn't be far off.
 * Saizo: What are you playing at, calling upon your watchman? This is very irregular.
 * Avatar: I'm not playing at anything. I just never had the chance to thank you for carrying my things. To remedy that, I brought some mint candies. Would you like one?
 * Saizo: C-candies...
 * Avatar: Is something wrong?
 * Saizo: I don't need your sweets! Eat them yourself.
 * Avatar: S-sorry... I had no idea. I thought you might like them, but clearly I don't know you very well. My apologies, Siazo. I'll find someone else to share them with.
 * Saizo: Stop biting your lip that way. You're making me feel guilty.
 * Avatar: That's easy for you to say, but...
 * Saizo: *sigh* All right, I'll come clean...
 * Avatar: What?
 * Saizo: I hate sweets.
 * Avatar: Really? Oh, come to think of it, I recall Ryoma mentioning that once. I had completely forgotten...
 * Saizo: It's not as if they're poison. They're just not to my taste.
 * Avatar: If that's why you refused candy, is it safe to assume you don't hate me?
 * Saizo: ...
 * Avatar: I know you can't trust me because I was raised in enemy territory. But clinging to that conception of me is counterproductive. It may take time before we reach a true understanding of each other... But until then, could you try to have faith in me?
 * Saizo: ... Hmph. I'd already come to the same conclusion.
 * Avatar: What?
 * Saizo: My surveillance on you is over, effective today. You have free rein from now on.
 * Avatar: Does this mean you trust me?
 * Saizo: I wouldn't go that far. It just means that I don't think a simpleton like you could be scheming anything.
 * Avatar: "Simpleton?" Don't hold back, Saizo... I'm glad you're starting to accept me, though.
 * Saizo: I still expect you to remain on your best behaviour, of course.
 * Avatar: Of course. I wouldn't want to lose your trust, now that we're friends.
 * Saizo: Friends? Where did you get that idea?
 * Avatar: It seemed clear to me. Do you disagree?
 * Saizo: Think what you like. I'm leaving.

 * Avatar: Saizo, I know you're there. You're not still spying on me, I hope.
 * Saizo: Forgive me. I didn't intend to remain hidden for long. I came to apologize again.
 * Avatar: Oh...?
 * Saizo: Yes. I'm sorry I doubted you.
 * Avatar: Is that still on your mind? Because it ceased troubling me some time ago.
 * Saizo: Still, I couldn't rest until I'd apologized. If I wrong you in some way again, I expect you to let me know.
 * Avatar: It's all right, honestly. I hesitate to mention this, but you're acting oddly today. Why are you so determined to apologize?
 * Saizo: It's because... argh... I can't rest, worrying that the one I love may be upset with me.
 * Avatar: The one you what?
 * Saizo: Gods! I'm trying to tell you I love you!
 * Avatar: WHAT?! B-but... you were so suspicious of me at first!
 * Saizo: That's why I must apologize! As I shadowed you, I saw how deeply you care about your friends. How you throw yourself into battle, willing to sacrifice yourself for the sake of peace.
 * Avatar: Saizo...
 * Saizo: Seeing that made me eager to fight alongside you. To do anything near you, really. But if you'd really rather I not, then I'll continue supporting you from the shadows. I may be better suited to that anyway.
 * Avatar: Will you let me get a word in edgewise before you go deciding this?
 * Saizo: Avatar...?
 * Avatar: At first, it was frustrating, the way you felt you needed to monitor me. But you did step in to help when I needed it. And eventually... after a very long time... you started to believe in me. I want to be with you, too, Saizo. Do you trust me enough to give me your heart?
 * Saizo: Hmph. Of course I do.
 * Avatar: Good! It warms my heart to see you smile... to know that it's because of me.
 * Saizo: Gods, just listen to you... Don't let anyone else catch you spouting such sugary nonsense.
 * Avatar: Heehee. Who'd have thought the fearsome Saizo would be so shy?

 * Kagero: Hrm. I suppose you could say that. What I need is for you to remain safe and sound.
 * Avatar: I agree with that sentiment, but I should be safe here, don't you think?
 * Kagero: What I mean is...it is absolutely vital that we keep you safe. After careful observation of the army, I've realized that you are critical to morale. I will keep an eye on you at all times to make sure nothing happens to you. This also helps my liege, Lord Ryoma.
 * Avatar: How does this help my brother?
 * Kagero: It would undoubtedly break his heart if something happened to you.
 * Avatar: You clearly care deeply for him. How long have you been his retainer?
 * Kagero: I've served him for some time, though I was under Lady Mikoto's command before that. Combined, I have spent most of my life in service to the Hoshidan royal family.
 * Avatar: I didn't know that... Well, I am grateful for your assistance, but... You aren't planning on following me around everywhere I go, are you?

 * Kagero: Yes, Lady Avatar?
 * Avatar: I know you're just doing your job, but... don't you think you should take a break?
 * Kagero: I would not be able to live with myself if something happened while I did so.
 * Avatar: It's just that...I feel a little on edge, being watched all the time. If it gets to me, I can only imagine how draining it must be for you to do it.
 * Kagero: I've trained for years to perform all the tasks of a ninja, so it doesn't bother me. But...I understand your point, milady. I will make an effort to be more inconspicuous in the future.
 * Avatar: I appreciate that, Kagero. I know your job can't be an easy one... That reminds me... Do you mind if I ask you something about Ryoma and my mother?
 * Kagero: Go ahead. I'll answer as best I can.
 * Avatar: How well did Ryoma and my mother get along with one another? Both royals, but not blood related... I imagine they had to figure a few things out.
 * Kagero: As far as I could tell, they had a very cordial relationship.
 * Avatar: I'm glad to hear that.
 * Kagero: I should clarify, though, that they didn't simply start off that way. The two of them worked very hard to forge their relationship into what it was.
 * Avatar: What do you mean?
 * Kagero: When Lord Sumeragi married Lady Mikoto, it wasn't just the royal children affected. There were a large number of Hoshidans who felt uneasy about her becoming queen. Lord Ryoma saw this and took it upon himself to build a relationship with her.
 * Avatar: Oh, I see. He wanted to set an example for everyone else to follow. Heh, that sounds like exactly something he would do.
 * Kagero: Lord Ryoma intended to make Lady Mikoto feel like she was welcome in Hoshido. From what I saw, he succeeded completely.

 * Kagero: Of course, but it is the duty of a retainer to work hard for her liege.
 * Avatar: That's true, but...I feel like you're far more diligent than any of the other retainers.
 * Kagero: ...
 * Avatar: There must be something deep down that motivates you.
 * Kagero: *sigh* My clan has loyally served the Hoshidan royal family for many years. It is my duty as a ninja to continue that tradition. Also...I have an older brother.
 * Avatar: You do? I didn't know that...
 * Kagero: He's been frail since birth. It would be impossible for him to do even the most simple of martial arts. However, as he is the eldest child, it was his duty to carry on the tradition. His condition has led some to criticize our clan's loyalty. This hurt my brother more than anything else.
 * Avatar: ...
 * Kagero: So I serve in his place, working hard to prove to everyone that our clan is loyal. I have to protect my clan's honor.

 * Azama: Yes, isn't it?

 * (Azama leaves)
 * Avatar: Azama?! Where are you going? What is that monstrous sound?
 * Azama: And there we go.
 * Avatar: What is THAT?
 * Azama: Oh ho! It's a bear, of course.
 * Avatar: Is it...dead?
 * Azama: Sadly, yes. It's a matter of course that one encounters bears in the forest. Unfortunately, from time to time, it becomes necessary to kill them. You know, the whole "eat or be eaten" thing. Isn't life funny?
 * Avatar: I can't believe you just killed a bear! Was it about to attack us?
 * Azama: Naturally. That's what bears do!
 * Avatar: Well, thank you for protecting me.
 * Azama: Oh, please. It was nothing. I'm just happy that we've been blessed with this wonderful food source. Now, if you don't mind, it's best to flay the beast immediately. That way we can get the meat back to camp and into the kitchen while it's fresh.
 * Avatar: Actually, I kind of DO mind. You're going to flay it here? Right now? I ventured out here for some peace and quiet... And now I'm watching a bear be eviscerated.

 * Azama: Again, please don't concern yourself with such trivialities. Apology accepted.
 * Avatar: So, will it be another day of meditation for you?
 * Azama: Yes. I wish I could spend my whole life doing this. It's a good distraction from the ultimate and total futility of war.
 * Avatar: I see. So you don't believe there's value in defending our friends and family?
 * Azama: Oh ho! That's an interesting argument. I agree that it can be sad when another entity leaves this plane of existence. But I am comforted by the very nature of the universe! We are all mere manifestations of a much larger consciousness, of course.
 * Avatar: I don't know. Call me old fashioned, but I think this "plane of existence" is pretty special. Still, perhaps it IS wise to take some comfort in the absurdity of life.
 * Azama: Yes, that's exactly it! You know, you're much wiser than you look. Or act.
 * Avatar: Well, thank you. I think.
 * Azama: Now, if you don't mind... I would like some quiet time out here.

 * Avatar: Oh? What's been interrupting your sleep?
 * Azama: Well, I've been spending my time making this.
 * Avatar: A...bear suit?
 * Azama: Ha! Now that would be a sight! No, this is a pelt. It's for you.
 * Avatar: For me? But...why?
 * Azama: Please, take it. It's warm, and it has protective qualities.
 * Avatar: Well, thank you! It is quite soft. I've never worn anything like this before.
 * Azama: It pleases me to hear that. This is also my first time proposing marriage!
 * Avatar: *gulp* What?!
 * Azama: Ahaha! I'm happy to have caught you by surprise like that. You see, I've never really cared about any one person so much as I care about you. At first, I dismissed you as just another ignorant soul in need of enlightenment. But you have proven to have quite an inquisitive mind—a beautiful curiosity! It made me want to do something special for you...to show my appreciation.
 * Avatar: But...marriage. It's so sudden!
 * Azama: Yes. Well, what can I say? I'm in love with you. And we don't have much time. Our physical bodies have such a pitiful life span... It would be a shame to waste time on something as foolish as courtship!
 * Avatar: You're actually making a whole lot of sense right now. Although I'm not entirely convinced I didn't just join a cult...
 * Azama: Haha! So, is that a yes? Never mind. You don't even need to answer. I can tell by your face that you're ridiculously in love with me!

 * Avatar: ...Excuse me?
 * Setsuna: Traps and I are destined for each other. If I go hiking in the mountains, I fall into traps left for wildlife... I always get hung up in fishing nets when I'm crossing rivers... I even fall into the small holes that children dig for fun in towns.

 * Setsuna: In that case, perhaps it would be easier to just pretend you don't see me next time? Lady Hinoka has always found me before, so I'll be OK.
 * Avatar: *sigh* That's not the point, Setsuna. You being caught in traps for hours isn't good for you—or for the group.

 * Setsuna: I suppose that's one way to look at it...
 * Avatar: That's the only way to look at it! Ah, I've had enough!! You can't live like this, Setsuna! I'm ordering you to undergo special training in how to avoid traps!

 * Hinata: Yeah. It's Lord Takumi.
 * Avatar: My brother? What about him?
 * Hinata: See, I come from a long line of warriors who have served Hoshido. Even before I learned to walk, I learned to use a katana. I learned quick, too. I thought that being Lord Takumi's retainer would be easy, too, but...
 * Avatar: But what?
 * Hinata: One day, he challenged me to a match. The rules were the same as ours. He even selected the katana as our weapon, so we'd be on equal terms. He absolutely destroyed me.
 * Avatar: You lost that badly?
 * Hinata: My head was spinning, he beat me so fast. Everyone knows Lord Takumi is skilled with a bow, but he's just as good with a katana. I was so mad at myself for losing and for underestimating him. It was a big hit to my pride—how can I protect him, if he can beat me? What was I even doing there? So I swore I would become as strong as him. That's what drives me to train.

 * Hinata: See, I knew it! I knew it and I completely forgot! How can I be so dumb? You'd think there would be a limit to how stupid one person could be...
 * Avatar: I...um... Sorry, Hinata, I don't understand what exactly is going on.
 * Hinata: We've been working hard in order to become stronger, but... It's supposed to be my duty to protect you. What if I'd accidentally hurt you when we were training?!
 * Avatar: That's just a risk of training, though... I don't think we'd ever actually be able to seriously injure each other, in any case.
 * Hinata: I know I'd never be able to hurt you! I mean, I might be able to actually defeat you in combat, but I really mean... Damn, this is not coming out right at all! Lady Avatar, I want to be the one to protect you from danger!
 * Avatar: That's very kind of you, Hinata. I'd say yes, but I'm sure Takumi would like to keep you as a retainer...
 * Hinata: I already asked him, actually! I knew he could appreciate the pairing of the strong samurai and lovely princess. After all, how could he say no when I told him I simply had to defend my beloved!
 * Avatar: Oh, Hinata, that... Hang on, what did you just say?
 * Hinata: Hrm? I said that I have to defend my beloved!
 * Avatar: Ahah! I didn't mishear you! You're calling me your beloved?
 * Hinata: Of course! I want to be the man by your side, protecting you from everything!
 * Avatar: And you say "the man" because...
 * Hinata: Because I'm in love with you, Lady Avatar!
 * Avatar: Ahhh!! I-I don't know what to say!
 * Hinata: Your face has turned really red, Lady Avatar... I'm not sure how to take that! Do your flushed cheeks mean I have a chance, or...
 * Avatar: They...might.
 * Hinata: Huh? What was that? I couldn't hear you. Could you say it again?
 * Avatar: No! You can figure it out yourself! Even you said there must be limits to how stupid one person can be!

 * Hinata: W-wait! Don't go!
 * Hinata: Please don't ever go away! I really love you, you know? I will make sure to keep you safe! My one and only princess!

 * Oboro: S-sorry...
 * Avatar: Oboro, is everything OK? You were staring off into the woods for a moment. 
 * Oboro: Yeah. Everything's fine.
 * Avatar: I'm not convinced. Your attention was wandering last time, too. Is something bothering you?
 * Oboro: Nothing that Lady Avatar should concern herself with.
 * Avatar: Don't worry about that. You shouldn't keep your troubles bottled up inside. I don't mind listening, at least. 
 * Oboro: ...All right, since you insist. It's not a problem so much as a bad memory. When I was a kid, my parents ran a clothing shop in our village. We were out trading in Nohr when bandits attacked and killed them both. I hid in the wagon, and fortunately the bandits didn't notice me.
 * Avatar: I never knew...
 * Oboro: It all happened on a moonless night, just like this one. I can't help but remember when the sky gets black.
 * Avatar: Which explains why your face was so stormy. I'm sorry, Oboro. Her I am, notionally a Nohrian, asking you to open up to me. It was insensitive.
 * Oboro: N-not at all! You have nothing to feel guilty for, Lady Avatar. It's the bandits who are to blame. They're fiends in human shape...

 * Avatar: More late-night cleaning, Oboro?
 * Oboro: Yes. Sorry to disturb you at this hour, but I'd appreciate your help.
 * Avatar: A couple nights ago it was repairing weapons and armor. Last night, you took inventory of the whole storeroom.
 * Oboro: Well, better safe than sorry, they say. Come on, Lady Avatar, don't just stand there. Help or get out of the way!
 * Avatar: I know what you're doing, Oboro. You're staying busy to pretend that nothing bothers you during the night, aren't you?
 * Oboro: ...
 * Avatar: Is it because spending a quiet night alone reminds you of the night your parents died?
 * Oboro: D-don't be silly! There are all kinds of reasons a girl would spend every night doing chores.
 * Avatar: But I've noticed you tend to glance grimly out at the forest while you do these chores.
 * Oboro: Th-that's because...um...
 * Avatar: Sorry. I wasn't trying to overstep my boundaries. But you seem desperate somehow, and it makes my heart ache to see.
 * Oboro: Hrgh...
 * Avatar: You don't need to try so hard. It won't bring your parents back...you have your master, and me, and all the others here to help you.
 * Oboro: Haha...you saw right through me, Lady Avatar. No matter how hard I try not to be, I'm a mess. I put up a front so I don't fall apart, and I keep people away with my stare...but it was never going to work forever. I just can't do it.
 * Avatar: Oboro...no one cares if you're a mess! We all have problems. We'll all help you through yours.
 * Oboro: Lady Avatar...
 * Avatar: If you're scared on the front lines, there's plenty to contribute in the back. If you really wants, you can just stay here and do the chores. Everyone knows you as a kind person who always looks out for her comrades. So let us look out for you. Come to us anytime you want.
 * Oboro: Lady Avatar...you think they'll help me if I ask?
 * Avatar: I know they will. An army is founded on people not having to struggle alone.
 * Oboro: ...I never saw it like that before. Thank you...so much. I think I was shutting myself out for no reason. I feel a little better now.

 * Avatar: Wait, did you say "eek" when you saw me? That's not a reaction I get very often... Never mind. Sakura isn't over here.
 * Hana: Oh. Well, thanks for letting me know. Good-bye, then.
 * Avatar: Hang on - just like that?! Wait a minute, Hana!
 * Hana: What is it? I really need to find Lady Sakura...

 * Hana: ... Yes, you did.
 * Avatar: I can't think of what it could be, but I apologize for it just the same...
 * Hana: Lady Sakura has spent years being sad over your kidnapping. I've watched her try and hide the tears countless times. And I don't like someone who makes my best friend cry!
 * Avatar: What? Sakura cried because of me? She's never said anything to me...
 * Hana: It's pointless to ask her - I doubt she'd talk to you about it anyway... Really, I feel like I'm wasting my time even explaining this to you.

 * Hana: Hyah! Hah! Hiyaaaah!!

 * Hana: *Huff...puff...* Lady Avatar. If you're here to talk about Lady Sakura, then you can stop right now. It's an issue between you and Lady Sakura. Don't try to get any information from me.
 * Avatar: That's not what I'm here for. I'm here because I wanted to talk to you.
 * Hana: ... Hrah!!!
 * Avatar: Whoa whoa!! ...That's dangerous! Even with a wooden sword, you could do some serious damage!
 * Hana: Well dodged. All right. You can ask me one question.
 * Avatar: What? Are you... Are you serious only letting me ask because I dodged that attack?
 * Hana: Hurry up if you have a question. Otherwise I need to get back to my training.
 * Avatar: OK... If I'm correct, you come from a family of samurai that served the Hoshido kingdom.
 * Hana: That's right. So what?
 * Avatar: So you'd say that a large part of why you work hard to train your mind and spirit... is to pay respect to your family's samurai history, right?
 * Hana: Of course.
 * Avatar: I think that's terrific.
 * Hana: What do you mean?
 * Avatar: I grew up locked away in a remote castle. I didn't know why I was there, and I had no ambition because I was isolated from life... So I'm fascinated by someone like you, who always knew where they were headed.
 * Hana: I have someone who inspired me - my father. He was a model samurai.
 * Avatar: What kind of person was he?
 * Hana: He devoted everything to King Sumeragi, who ruled Hoshido at the time. More than once he saved the king's life... either by slaying those who threatened the king, or by protecting him from danger. He gave the king everything he could, whenever he could.
 * Avatar: ...
 * Hana: The stories of my father's accomplishments fill me with pride... He passed from this world while he was protecting the king. But even in death he fulfilled his purpose - his devotion to the king symbolized his life. For a samurai, to die in service is really the best possible death.
 * Avatar: ...I see.
 * Hana: I live my life the way I do because I want to honor everything my father stood for.
 * Avatar: I understand your mindset much better. Sorry if this sounds rude, but I don't think dying itself is something to be respected. Even if you protect your master, I don't think it's wise to throw your life away.
 * Hana: What?! Are you saying my father was foolish to do what he did?!
 * Avatar: No, I wasn't trying to say that at all! Your father was very admirable. He protected King Sumeragi to the very end... But I wouldn't want you to follow in his exact footsteps.
 * Hana: Well, it's easy to criticize someone's actions after they've made them! I'll never forgive you for ridiculing my father's honorable sacrifice!
 * Avatar: Wait, Hana!!

 * Avatar: No...I want to apologize. It was simply rude of me to not even consider your feelings before speaking.
 * Hana: Stop it! You're just making me look like someone deserving of pity!
 * Avatar: No...that's not what I'm trying to say... I just thought that Sakura might be crushed if you did what your father did... That's all!
 * Hana: Lady Sakura?! What are you talking about now?
 * Avatar: Before, you were mad at me for making Sakura cry... I can see why you'd respect your father for his sacrifice and want to honor him. But imagine if you died protecting your liege. Sakura would be crushed. She would never want that to happen, and she'd probably have trouble moving on. I can't stand thinking about a future like that, and I bet that you can't either. Right?
 * Hana: Well...I hadn't considered that...
 * Avatar: I understand it's a really important thing for a samurai to protect her master. But... isn't there more to protecting your master than just the physical act?
 * Hana: You're right. I don't want to see Sakura cry anymore either...
 * Avatar: Hana...that's all I was trying to convey before. I'm sorry I didn't do it well.
 * Hana: It's OK, Lady Avatar. Thank you for this conversation. I'm sorry I was so hostile toward you.

 * Subaki: No need to apologize! Please, feel free to sit down and watch, if you like. My form with weapons is second to none, after all. Perhaps one of my techniques will prove useful to you in the battlefield someday.
 * Avatar: It's certainly possible. I wish I had your dexterity as a fighter. Every movement you make is so assured.
 * Subaki: In that case, why not spar with me? There is no better way to learn and improve.
 * Avatar: Really? Would you mind?
 * Subaki: Of course not! I would do anything in my power to aid Lady Sakura's sister! Besides, I've mastered every class of weapon. Responding to your moves shouldn't prove overly difficult for me. *grumble*

 * Avatar: Are you sure? Your face is beet red.
 * Subaki: I feel so disgraced...
 * Avatar: What? Don't be so dramatic. Everyone's tummy growls from time to time. There's no need to be hard on yourself for something so silly.

 * Avatar: Everyone has been talking about you eating so much! I heard that you've been constantly munching on something wherever you go. So I got a little worried and wanted to come and find you. No offense, but it really seems like you can't stop shoving food in your mouth.
 * Subaki: Oh, don't be ridiculous. There's no need to trouble yourself over me.
 * Avatar: But there is! You're my comrade. We need to look out for one another. Does this have anything to do with my overhearing your stomach growling?
 * Subaki: Wh-what do you mean...?
 * Avatar: OK, so clearly it does.
 * Subaki: Listen, this is the only way to make sure that my stomach never growls again. If I'm always eating, I'll never be hungry.
 * Avatar: Subaki, you can't keep eating like that! It's not healthy. Besides, it will just make you get bigger and bigger. Then you won't be able to train anymore. I know you wouldn't want that to happen.
 * Subaki: Oh, don't you worry about me. I've already calculated how much food I need to stay in fighting shape.

 * Avatar: Good. Trust me, it's for the best.

 * Avatar: What do you mean?
 * Subaki: You may not know this about me, but I can't stand to fail in front of people. My goal in life is to achieve perfection in every possible way. Though it's wildly painful to admit, even I sometimes make a mistake. But I never know what to do when that occurs.
 * Avatar: Really?
 * Subaki: Yes. But like I said, this very, very rarely happens to me.
 * Avatar: I know that it's hard to be vulnerable around other people. But I promise, I'm not going to make fun of you. I just want to help.
 * Subaki: I'm no good at getting help when I need it. That's the problem with seeking perfection. You always feel like you have to do everything alone. I have to admit that it feels good to get all of this off my chest.
 * Avatar: Huh. So that's what this has all been about. You just needed a counselor.
 * Subaki: Maybe. So, Lady Avatar... Now that you understand me so well, I'm going to count on you for advice.
 * Avatar: That's fine, Subaki.
 * Subaki: OK! Now that we're agreed, let's start brainstorming! I gotta figure out how to beat my appetite. My newest idea was to eat foods that make you feel really, really full. I brought a bag of snacks, actually. Let me go get them!

 * Hayato: OK, thank you. Say, maybe you should write a letter too.

 * Avatar: Huh, really? But I don't remember seeing you buy anything that day.
 * Kaden: Heheh, that's because I was too busy watching you shop. You're so fun! I didn't buy it then, but I just couldn't resist going back for it. I had a feeling you'd like it too, which was all the more reason I needed it!
 * Avatar: That's very kind of you, Kaden. Thanks for thinking of me!

 * Kaden: Well, you should know theres another reason I bought this kaleidoscope. Inside I see so much beauty. Such charming and unpredictable loveliness. It reminds me of you and all of your cute expressions. You fascinate me. And no matter what you say or do...or how you move...you're beautiful. Ever since we spent that day shopping together, you're all I can think about. I love you, avatar.

 * Avatar: Kaden...I'd like that very much. The truth is, I love you too. Something about you makes me smile... Just like our kaleidoscope, heehee.
 * Kaden: Really?! Wow! Thank you, Avatar! This is the bets news ever! Aww, look at you! You're so cute when you blush like that. I'm so happy I confessed!
 * Avatar: D-don't call me cute like that! You'll embarrass me.

 * Kaden: If that embarrasses you, what are going to do when I tell you you're beautiful...and smart, and wonderful, and special and that I love you more than anything. That's your life now, you know. So you better get used to it!

 * Avatar: Have a moment, Orochi?
 * Orochi: I live to serve, Lady Avatar.
 * Avatar: I was wondering if you could tell me a little more about my mother.
 * Orochi: Lady Mikoto--a remarkable woman. I'd be delighted to share my memories of her.
 * Avatar: I barely had a chance to get to know my mother. So little time, because of what I... Hmm. Anyway, could you share some stories about her?
 * Orochi: Trust me when I say she wouldn't have blamed you for what happened. And she'd be saddened if you blamed yourself, Lady Avatar. But yes, a story--a funny one! That's what we need.
 * Avatar: She seemed so graceful. You know funny stories about her?
 * Orochi: Oh, she was endlessly hilarious. One time, I recall catching her swimming--with her slippers on! She'd forget she had two chopsticks in hand--and eat with four! Some might say she was absentminded. Not I. She was a dreamer of dreams. So what if Lady Mikoto had her mishaps. We loved her for it.
 * Avatar: Please, go on.
 * Orochi: Once she sat cross-legged for so long, her legs went to sleep. And I am talking a DEEP sleep! She stood up before the court--and careened right into a fountain!
 * Avatar: I wish I could have been there. Er, at least to help her out of the water.
 * Orochi: Your mother was truly unique, like, a wise sage and an accidental jester. She had the sweetest voice, but the things she would say... Honestly, that dear woman--she really was a hoot.
 * Avatar: Thanks, Orochi. That's exactly what I needed to hear right now.

 * Orochi: Hello there, Lady Avatar.
 * Avatar: Oh, Orochi! Thank you for sharing those funny stories about my mother last time.
 * Orochi: I fear I made her out to be a buffoon. Far from the truth.
 * Avatar: You did no such thing. You revealed a side I would never have known.
 * Orochi: But she had many facets. That woman was a gem. I'd like to tell you about the side of her that was kindness itself.
 * Avatar:  I'm all ears.
 * Orochi: She was kind enough to treat me with the greatest respect. My family has long served as diviners at the royal palace. But we'd been treated very poorly.
 * Avatar: I can't believe that. Really?
 * Orochi: We diviners tell as many bad fortunes as good, which can make us unpopular.
 * Avatar: How unjust. To speak the truth, and be blamed for it?
 * Orochi: Indeed. But my fate was changed when I met Lady Mikoto. She treated me like her own daughter. No matter what fortunes I told her.
 * Avatar: A rare soul, I guess.
 * Orochi: The rarest! Why, once I saw enemies outside the palace... I rushed them, tried to drive them off by myself, and got hurt badly. She wept at my bedside that night, and many nights after that. Once I got better, Lady Mikoto said I must never run off like that again. To make sure I didn't, she made me one of her personal attendants.
 * Avatar: She sounds like perfection.
 * Orochi: Lady Mikoto was so kind, being in her presence was like basking in the sun.
 * Avatar: A beautiful memory. Thank you for sharing it.
 * Orochi: Of course. Now if you'll excuse me, Lady Avatar... Th-those are all the memories that Orochi has in her right now.

 * Orochi: Ah, Lady Avatar. May I share one last thought about your mother?
 * Avatar: Of course. Your tales are like pearls, Orochi.
 * Orochi: As I have said, she had many facets. Funny, kind, wise, brilliant... ...... And also dark.
 * Avatar: Oh?
 * Orochi: She usually shone, one way or another, no matter when you saw her. But then I'd catch her alone, a shadow in her features... She fell into dark spells, and I believe she was always thinking of...
 * Avatar: Me.
 * Orochi: Yes, you--or so I believe. She was agonizing over the loss of her daughter. Before her people, and at court, she was always bright as the sun. Yet she was unafraid to show this troubled side to me and Kagero.
 * Avatar: My poor mother...
 * Orochi: I wasn't sure whether to tell you. It's not a happy memory. And yet, in a way, it is. That was the side of her that loved you--missed you--deeply.
 * Avatar: Th-thank you, Orochi. I suspect no one knew her quite as well as you. That side of her, I feel it too. But in the darkness is love. I must do what I can to defend those she also feared losing.
 * Orochi: I know she'd want you to take heart from all this loss.
 * Avatar: You're among those she held most dear, Orochi.
 * Orochi: Perhaps. In any case, I loved Lady Mikoto very much. She was like a mother to me. So, of course, I feel very close to you. I hope I...haven't overstepped.
 * Avatar: Of course not. Orochi, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

 * Rinkah: ...
 * Avatar: If a unit detached and came at them from the river... do you think they'd cluster? If so, we could hit them with a volley... but if we fail, the attacking force might rout.
 * Rinkah: ...
 * Avatar: Rinkah? Are you listening to me?
 * Rinkah: You know as well as I that I am not a tactician. Why are you here? Hoping to make friends? I'm sorry to disappoint you. I'm just here to carry out orders. Nothing more. Farewell.
 * Avatar: Hey! Hey, wait! I'm not done talking yet!
 * Rinkah: I have nothing to discuss with you. Leave me alone.
 * Avatar: You know I can't do that. We're allies! I have to be able to communicate with you.
 * Rinkah: That's not what I meant. I will still listen to and follow any orders you want to give. But otherwise, do not speak to me!

 * Rinkah: *sigh* My apologies. Perhaps I went too far. That is no way to talk to one's superior. I am grateful you spared my life when I was your prisoner. And I will follow you wherever you decide to lead us. However I neither need nor desire your attention. Please leave me alone.

 * Avatar: Hey! Rinkah!
 * Rinkah: ...
 * Avatar: Rinkah! Did you hear me?
 * Rinkah: What is it this time? I told you to leave me alone.
 * Avatar: I wanted to ask you why you insist so much on remaining aloof.
 * Rinkah: If I do, will you leave me be?
 * Avatar: I... I guess I can do that.
 * Rinkah: *sigh* Very well. I keep my distance because it is the law of the Flame Tribe. As you know, we worship the God of the Flame. To honor our God, we keep a fire in the village burning at all times. This is a challenge, and so in order to keep in burning we have effected many laws. One such law directs us to avoid contact with outsiders as much as possible. This is why we live in isolation -- and why I would prefer you quit prying.
 * Avatar: How does living in isolation keep the flame burning?
 * Rinkah: It's always an outsider that extinguishes the flame of life. They don't respect it, and so foolishly they run headlong into taboo acts.
 * Avatar: Like putting out the flame?
 * Rinkah: That is one of them, yes. And it has terrible consequences for the transgressor. Once, a long time ago, the sacred flame was extinguished by an enemy tribe. They only wished to cause us harm, but they angered the God of the Flame. The holy mountain then erupted, and fire fell from the sky. Lava decimated the enemy tribe, and by the end of it, there was no trace of them left. The stories say our own tribe suffered greatly as well, however.
 * Avatar: I see. But then why were you siding with Hoshido against Nohr?
 * Rinkah: Because our chief -- my father -- decided we should cooperate with Hoshido. A fighter should fully commit themselves to every battle, it's true. But to be honest, I had grave misgivings about the whole venture. Bad omens. And those feeling turned out to be well-founded. As you know, I was taken captive.
 * Avatar: I see. You must feel very vindicated.
 * Rinkah: I feel the same as I did before. So. Now you understand. I expect you will stick to your end of the bargain. Farewell.

 * Avatar: Is there no way I can convince you to be a little more friendly with the others?
 * Rinkah: Why?
 * Avatar: When we spoke of your capture at Nohr's hands...you seemed angry. Do you hate having been caught so much?
 * Rinkah: Of course I do. Being captured is far more shameful a fate than death to a warrior. I wish I had perished that day. I would have retained my dignity, at least.
 * Avatar: But if you'd died, we'd never have met and worked together.
 * Rinkah: What?
 * Avatar: We're at war. Nothing is certain. One day we celebrate, the next we may be mourning. But I have to believe there's some kind of order to things. And so I think we were fated to meet as we did, and that we should be grateful for it.
 * Rinkah: I see. I AM grateful we met. But I still feel regret and anger at my capture. It is difficult to be grateful for a misfortune, is it not?
 * Avatar: But in the end it wasn't a misfortune, right? It all worked out. We should thank fate for that—for all the ways it sees fit to connect us. All of us. And I think fate has given you a unique and incredible opportunity.
 * Rinkah: How so?
 * Avatar: It's rare the Flame Tribe interacts with outsiders, right? Then perhaps you should take advantage of this chance to learn about the world. About other people, other cultures, lands, arts, history, technologies... Your people may not have an opportunity like this again for a long, long time. And I think it would be a terrible shame were you to let it slip past you. But...I admit I may feel this way because I spent my entire life trapped in isolation. So the choice is yours. I won't press you further.
 * Rinkah: I see. Very well. I will have to think on it, but your argument has swayed me. I'll do my best to try to warm up to the others. All right?
 * Avatar: Thank you, Rinkah!

 * Avatar: Well...I was wondering if you could tell me about my parents.
 * Yukimura: You mean King Sumeragi and Queen Mikoto?
 * Avatar: Yes. You served them both, right? I was hoping you'd tell me what they were like.
 * Yukimura: Ah, I see. You don't have many memories of them. You were quite young. Where shall I begin? Perhaps with King Sumeragi?
 * Avatar: Sure! What was he like?
 * Yukimura: He was hard on himself, but he treated all his subjects with dignity and respect. It was this, more than anything, that earned him the trust of his people. However, he was a different man with his family.
 * Avatar: Really? How so?
 * Yukimura: When he was with them, he shrugged off the mantle of the King of Hoshido. And instead, he simply focused on being the best father he could possibly be. I remember when you were a babe, he'd come to check on you ever day. At court, he rarely smiled, but when he was around you he never stopped beaming. It was a heartwarming sight.
 * Avatar: I had no idea.
 * Yukimura: As for your mother, Queen Mikoto—she thought of you as her pride and joy. If you so much as sneezed, she would dash around the castle in a mad panic. It was always left up to me and Orochi to help calm her down. Heh.
 * Avatar: Haha. That sounds like a lot of work. Sorry for causing you so much trouble.
 * Yukimura: Oh, not at all. I look back on those days fondly. Both of them loved you very deeply, Lady Avatar. So. Does that help with your problem? I imagine your sudden curiosity was brought on by some trouble. No?
 * Avatar: It was that easy to tell?
 * Yukimura: It was. But you can talk to me about it if you feel it will help.
 * Avatar: Both of them... Both of them died protecting me. Sometimes I think if I had never been born, they'd still be alive.
 * Yukimura: Do you still feel this way?
 * Avatar: No... And I feel a bit better after hearing you talk about them. It sounds like I really made them happy, which is worth something.
 * Yukimura: Yes, you did. That reminds me! I have something to show you.

 * Avatar: Is that paper inside it? What's on the paper?
 * Yukimura: They're pictures. You can move the lid to the right to look at them.
 * Avatar: Oh! It's...
 * Yukimura: Your parents, yes. This is what they looked like when you were a baby. And if you tug on this rope on the side of the box like so... it changes to the next picture. You might think of it as an automated storybook.
 * Avatar: Wow! This is amazing! And they're all pictures of us! Did you make this, Yukimura?
 * Yukimura: Yes. And I drew the pictures as well. It took quite some time. I worked on it nights on end for you.
 * Avatar: For me?
 * Yukimura: Yes. At the time, both Queen Mikoto and King Sumeragi were very busy. It was difficult for them to find time to play with you. But they didn't want you to feel lonely, so they asked me to make this.
 * Avatar: That was very kind of them.
 * Yukimura: After you were taken, it broke the queen's heart to see it, so I stowed it away. I never thought I'd be showing it to you again one day as a grown lady.
 * Avatar: Yukimura...I think I remember having seen some of these before. Only just barely, but I do. Mother and Father are at my side...laughing?
 * Yukimura: I'm so glad you remembered. I'm sure your parents would be happy to hear it too. So please, Lady Avatar, you must dry your tears.

 * Yukimura: I'm glad you like them so much. I hope these pictures will be a source of strength for you in these difficult times. Just as they were to me.
 * Avatar: What do you mean?
 * Yukimura: After you were taken, I would sometimes look at these pictures. I lost my family when I was young, so looking at these always cheered me up. You all look so happy in them. And I was, of course, very close to your father. And when I felt short of hope, these reminded me there was good in the world. There was still happiness, and family, and honor. Things worth fighting to preserve.
 * Avatar: Yukimura... I vow to you, on these pictures—on the honor of my father and my mother... I will protect Hoshido. I will bring peace to this world.

 * Reina: Not exactly. I haven't seen them in years.
 * Avatar: Really? I'm sorry to hear that.
 * Reina: It's quite all right. I made choice, and it required they no longer be in my life. My parents were local officials back home. They had high hopes for me. So they were upset when I ignored their plans in order to become a soldier.
 * Avatar: I see. If I remember correctly, you served my mother, right?
 * Reina: I did. I was very proud to have risen to so high a station. But all the awards and commendations in the world would not sway my parents. They cut off all ties with me after I signed on.

 * Reina: Please, do not trouble yourself over it. I do not hold it against them myself. I even still send them money every month, to show how I still appreciated all they've done. They raised me, after all, and I'd never have served at the castle if it weren't for them.

 * Reina: I see. My apologies, milady. I know it must seem terribly foolish of me. But I still don't think I can just go see them.
 * Avatar: Why not? I'm sure if you just talked, you could smooth things over. You could explain to them why you wanted to be a soldier... Say, why DID you want to become a soldier?
 * Reina: Because I enjoyed the thrill of battle. Fighting was what I lived for. I always felt a weapon was more suited to my grasp than a brush or an instrument. It was a great source of confusion for people when I was younger. I did not exactly look the part of the blood-hungry warrior.
 * Avatar: What do you mean?

 * Reina: On the contrary, this sounds like a wonderful opportunity. My parents would not have to learn anything of what I've become. If you did this, I would be eternally in your debt.

 * Reina: It seems my parents are still acting as magistrates.
 * Avatar: They are. It sounds as if they are well loved by the people in their area.
 * Reina: Lady Avatar...
 * Avatar: Are you all right?
 * Reina: Yes, I just...remembered something.
 * Avatar: What's that?
 * Reina: When I was young, I was very proud of my parents and the work they did. And as their daughter, I wanted to help them protect all the people there. So I found myself drawn to the idea of military service of some sort. I thought when I grew up, I would serve my parents by guarding them.
 * Avatar: Reina...
 * Reina: Heh. Nowadays, I just love fighting for the sake of fighting. But I'm glad I remembered what started me on this path. It was my love for my parents. Thank you for helping me remember this, Lady Avatar.
 * Avatar: I didn't do anything. But I am glad you remembered. I hope that someday you'll be able to tell your parents this, too. I'm sure they'd be very proud.
 * Reina: I hope so too. But in the meantime, I must see to my duties. We must return peace to this world before we can set about our personal affairs. Heh. I look forward to seeing the destruction of our enemies. I will relish the cries of terror and anguish they give as I come upon them, the curs. For each scream is a trumpet blast heralding the victory to come. And each pound of flesh I claim brings us that much closer to victory.
 * Avatar: Uh...huh. And we were having such a pleasant conversation...

 * Scarlet: Who's there?! Oh...it's just you, Avatar.
 * Avatar: I'm very sorry to interrupt your training. Please, continue.
 * Scarlet: Haha, it can wait. Didja need me for something?
 * Avatar: Oh, er, no. I was just captivated by the way you handled your weapon. I couldn't help bu to stop to watch.
 * Scarlet: Wanna practice with me?
 * Avatar: Y-you wouldn't mind?
 * Scarlet: Of course not! Here, hold this and stand a few feet away.
 * Avatar: Got it!
 * Scarlet: Nice moves. You have good balance and a knack for when to block.
 * Avatar: You're too kind. May I ask where you learned to fight that way?
 * Scarlet: Oh, I'm self-taught. Both my parents were knights, so I copied what I saw them do. See, I grew up in Cheve, home to three companies of knights. In a place like that, even the alley cats pick up a few moves.
 * Avatar: Why didn't you join any of those companies?
 * Scarlet: I planned to. I thought I'd sign on with the same company my parents did. But when I saw how King Garon treated his subjects, I knew it wasn't in the cards. I had no faith in the Nohrian nobility to do right by the common folk. So I ended up forming my own company, which turned into the resistance.
 * Scarlet: That about sums it up.
 * Avatar: Well, I salute your bravery. As well as your skill with a blade...

 * Scarlet: Hey, Avatar! Glad you showed up.
 * Avatar: What, no practice today?
 * Scarlet: Nah, I thought it was a nice day to do something else.
 * Avatar: And it involves these...shiny little rocks?
 * Scarlet: You've never seen these? Wow, you really were sheltered, huh? Pull up a seat, and I'll give you a little demonstation. First, you unsheathe your weapon and put it down on some paper, like so. Then you pour on some of this magic gunk. It's very sticky, so try not to touch it. When everything's ready, you place these stones in the gunk.
 * Avatar: Oh! So this is what makes your weapons so sparkly, is it?
 * Scarlet: Yep. This is how I pretty them up. It's called mosaic, and it's one of my favorite hobbies.
 * Avatar: What are those faint lines near the hilt?
 * Scarlet: Sketch lines. I draw a design I like in pencil and then fill it in with the stones. That way it comes out looking kinda like a painting.
 * Avatar: That's amazing!
 * Scarlet: You have to be reaaaaal patient... Place each rock slowly... Carefully... And you're done!
 * Avatar: What a lovely white flower!
 * Scarlet: You like it? it's a kind of flower native to Cheve.
 * Avatar: It's strong and dignified, yet also ornate and beautiful. Just like you, Scarlet.
 * Scarlet: Haha, you're laying it on pretty thick.
 * Avatar: No, it's true! You're strong and dependable, which are fine qualities in and of themselves... And you balance them well with your softer, more creative side.
 * Scarlet: Hahaha, you're not so bad yourself! I could get to like hanging out with a gal who says nice things about me all the time.

 * Avatar: *yawn* Scarlet...? It's pretty late. What did you need?
 * Scarlet: Ah, sorry about that. I just felt like stargazing with ya.
 * Avatar: Stargazing?
 * Scarlet: Yeah. It's easy; you just lie down on this here blanket and look up.
 * Avatar: All right.
 * Scarlet: Well? Whaddaya think?
 * Avatar: It's breathtaking... I never realized how many stars there were in the sky.
 * Scarlet: Yeah, this is one of the best hills for it. The stars are so pretty here.
 * Avatar: Oh!
 * Scarlet: What? Didja see a shooting star?
 * Avatar: No, it's just...looking up at the stars, I realize...they remind me of the stones you use to decorate your weapons.
 * Scarlet: Haha, don't they though? Part of the reason I like making mosaics is that they remind me of the stars.
 * Avatar: Really?
 * Scarlet: ...I mentioned my parents, yeah? They...aren't around anymore. The war took them.
 * Avatar: ...I'm sorry to hear that.
 * Scarlet: In Cheve, we believe that people who die turn into stars. So when I lie out here stargazing, it feels almost like visiting my folks.
 * Avatar: And that's the same reason you decorate your weapons?
 * Scarlet: Yeah. Hey, Avatar... When I die, what color star do you think I'll be?
 * Avatar: D-don't ask that. It's bad luck.
 * Scarlet: Hey, we all gotta go sometime. You can't avoid thinking or talking about it if you've chosen to go to war. Don't tell me you've never wondered what happens after you die.
 * Avatar: ...In that case, I'd say...the shiniest stone on your weapon is the one you would be.
 * Scarlet: Yeah...I like that. Good choice, Avatar. One of these days we'll get your weapon decorated too.
 * Avatar: Huh?
 * Scarlet: With a bunch of those stones you say remind you of me.
 * Avatar: If that's a serious offer, I'm looking forward to it!
 * Scarlet: We'll need a design... Maybe watching the stars will give us some inspiration.

 * Xander: Hya! Hah! Hyaaa!!
 * Avatar: *yawn* Xander? You're not still training are you? You should get some rest.
 * Xander: Hm? Ah, Avatar. Thank you for your concern, but I haven't a moment to lose. I must keep improving my sword technique for the glory of Nohr. As crown prince, it is my responsibility to be as strong as I can for our people.
 * Avatar: Ha ha, even after all these years, you're still the same Xander.
 * Xander: Oh? How so?
 * Avatar: Remember when I was little, and I'd get so lonely in the Northern Fortress? You'd always come stay with me until I got sleepy and then go train late into the night.
 * Xander: You knew about that? But how?
 * Avatar: I could see you from my window. After you left, I always watched you train for a bit. It's a little embarrassing, but I'd even try to imitate how you swung your sword. I thought if I matched your movements, maybe one day I could be as strong as you.
 * Xander: I had no idea.
 * Avatar: I was always afraid if I told you about it, you might train elsewhere. Wow, thinking about all that is making me really nostalgic. Such great memories. You know... we've been so busy, we haven't had a chance to train together in a while. Um, if you're not too busy, maybe we could practice sword swinging like old times...
 * Xander: That's the best idea I've heard all day. But it can't be like old times. This time, you and I shall train side by side. No more lonely Northern Fortress for you.

 * Xander: I am always happy to have such a capable fighter aid me in my practice.
 * Xander: ...
 * Avatar: Is something the matter? I understand if you'd prefer to be alone right now.
 * Xander: Oh no, not at all. I was just thinking about what you said the other day.
 * Avatar: What about it?
 * Xander: Exactly how much sleep did I cause you to lose because of my training? Thinking back, I recall how hard it was to get you up in the morning. Am I to blame?
 * Avatar: Ha ha, don't be silly. It's true I stayed up to watch, but it actually helped me sleep. Some people need to hear the ocean waves to lull themselves to sleep... I need to hear your powerful blade slicing through the night air. It's soothing. I know it sounds ridiculous, but watching you train always made me feel safe.
 * Xander: Truly? Well, I suppose if that's the case I shall forgive us both.
 * Avatar: ... Um, Xander? Is something else on your mind? You look troubled.
 * Xander: Am I such an open book to you?
 * Avatar: You're swinging your sword so fiercely today, with a wild look in your eyes. It's the same look you always had on nights when you and Father would argue.
 * Xander: ... You're too clever for your own good, Avatar. I have much on my mind, but I have no regrets about the decisions I've made. Like you, I am proceeding down the path I believe in, no matter the consequences.
 * Avatar: Oh, so that's it. Sorry, maybe I shouldn't have asked. It's just so nice to hear what's on your mind instead of wondering from afar.
 * Xander: Worry not, little princess. I have enjoyed our discourse as well. But the hour is getting late. Let's finish up so we can rest for tomorrow's endeavors.

 * Xander: Ah. Avatar. I've been waiting for you. I knew you'd turn up eventually.
 * Avatar: Ugh, am I that predictable? Oh well. Shall we begin?
 * Xander: Certainly.
 * Xander: ...
 * Xander: Avatar... Did you mean it when you said you prefer to hear what's on my mind?
 * Avatar: I meant it with all my heart.
 * Xander: I see... Well, I suppose I owe you the courtesy of explaining a thing or two. You were right about me taking out my anger at Father during my training. Sometimes being crown prince means following the king's order no matter what. But there were times when I felt his commands crossed a line. Sometimes it didn't feel like he was trying to benefit the kingdom at all, just himself. Having to do things I didn't believe in weighed heaavily on my heart. Now I'm wise enough and brave enough to stand up to Father. But back then... Those were the nights you spoke of, when I swung my blade like a wild beast.


 * Avatar: Xander...
 * Xander: I never thought I'd tell you that. I always tried to shield you from such things. A sword is a strange and beautiful thing... Sometimes just one swing of your blade can communicate more than a lifetime of words. Thank you for listening, Avatar. Both to my blade back then and my words now.


 * Avatar: No need to thank me. I didn't do anything but listen. And pry.
 * Xander: You did more than you know. It's thanks to you... That I don't feel alone anymore.
 * Avatar: Xander... It means the world to me to hear you say that. You saved me from my own loneliness when I was a child, locked away from the world... I'm so happy to finally repay the favor. It was always my dearest wish to do so. If you ever feel like talking, about anything. I'm always here for you.


 * Xander: I don't wish for you to lose sleep over my troubles...
 * Avatar: I've been losing sleep over you for years now, ha ha. It's my favorite tradition.
 * Xander: As you wish, Avatar. From now on I promise to let you in.

 * Xander: Hello, Avatar. Thank you for joining me here today.
 * Avatar: Sure thing. Your note said it was urgent... Is everything OK?
 * Xander: ...
 * Xander: I need to ask you something. What do you think of me?
 * Avatar: I'm not sure what you mean...
 * Xander: I know this is out of the blue, but I need to know. Please answer truthfully.
 * Avatar: OK... If it means that much to you.
 * Avatar: Well, to me you're someone I admire. Someone strong and wise and noble. You're the rock of the family, someone we can all depend on and look up to. You taught me about courage and about the sword, as well as about right and wrong. I was so sad when I first found out we aren't truly brother and sister... I was always proud to be the little sister of the finest prince there ever was.
 * Xander: Thank you, Avatar. I am honored by your kind words. Though, to be honest, I feel the exact opposite in one respect.
 * Avatar: Oh?
 * Xander: I am overjoyed that we are not brother and sister.
 * Avatar: Y-you are? But why?! I guess I wasn't a very good sister...
 * Xander: Please don't misunderstand me. I meant that in the best way possible.
 * Avatar: What way is that?
 * Xander: You said just now that I taught you about courage and about the sword. But... I wish to teach you about much more than that. I wish to teach you about love. That's why I bought this for you.
 * Avatar: Is that a r-ring?!
 * Xander: Dearest, Avatar. You are the most precious person in the world to me. Would you do me the honor of being my wife?
 * Avatar: Your wife?! Xander, are you sure? What will the others say...
 * Xander: Let them say what they will. I wish to protect you for the rest of my days. I don't see you as a sibling any longer, but as a woman... One who I adore. Please say you'll stay by my side, now and forever.
 * Avatar: Xander... Of course I'll marry you. I'm so happy. I don't know what to say! But everyone will be so surprised. They may even object at first...
 * Xander: Worry not. In the end, I'm certain everyone will understand. After all, our marriages won't only benefit our future happiness... I believe it will also have a positive effect on our beloved kingdom.
 * Avatar: You're right, as ever. Besides, what matters most is that we'll finally be together.
 * Xander: I can't wait to spend my life with you, little princess. I have so much to tell you... You were cooped up so long, I wish to show you the whole world.
 * Avatar: I can't wait. Thank you, dear Xander.

 * Avatar: What?!
 * Camilla: What do you mean, what? It's just a little soaking and relaxing, dear. Don't two sisters deserve a little extra time to bond?

Let alone experience life's simplest pleasures! Like running madly through a springtime meadow...or splashing in the ocean. Father didn't allow that sort of thing, did he.

 * 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: 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: 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.

 * 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: Um, Elise? Why are you throwing punches in the middle of the field?
 * Elise: Waaah! Avatar! I-I'm not doing anything! Really. Not a thing. Or, I mean, I was just here to pick flowers. YEAH! A pretty girl picking pretty flowers...
 * Avatar: Oh, I see. Are you sure about that?
 * Elise: But of course! I wanted to make you a lovely bouquet. I'M JUST TOO SWEET!
 * Avatar: OK then. It just seemed an awful lot like you were practicing your punches...
 * Elise: FINE! You caught me. You're just too clever for my devious deceptions. The truth is, lately I've been feeling like kind of a burden to everyone... I was hoping if I trained secretly I could become as strong as you are one day!
 * Avatar: Elise, please don't say that. I promise, no one thinks of you as a burden.
 * Elise: You're sweet to say that, Avatar. I love that you're always looking out for me. But that's exactly why I need to train! That way I can look out for myself instead!
 * Avatar: This clearly means a whole lot to you.
 * Elise: Oh, it means everything to me! Everything! See, watch this...KAPOW! My killer left hook. KABOOM! My right fist of fury! Kapow! Kaboom! HYAAA!
 * Avatar: Ah, wow. I'm impressed by your... exuberance. Well then, if it means that much to you, I'd be happy to help you out. After all, training is twice as effective with two minds at work.
 * Elise: You mean it, Avatar?! Thank you, thank you, thank you! You're the best! I love you THE MOST!!
 * Avatar: Hahaha, you're very welcome. Now then, let's start with some cardio. Ready...GO!

 * Avatar: Hello, Elise. Shall we start our training for today?
 * Elise: Hrm... *sigh*
 * Avatar: Elise, are you feeling all right?
 * Elise: Not really. It's just... I've been training so hard, but I still feel like a big ol' burden.
 * Avatar: Nonsense. You've already improved quite a bit. Be patient. These things take time.
 * Elise: Do you mean it? You really think I've improved a lot?
 * Avatar: Absolutely. But the only way you'll keep getting better is to work hard every day.
 * Elise: You're right! No more moping around! I'm gonna do my best from here on out! So what are we working on today? Kicks? Punches? Intimidating faces?!
 * Avatar: Today we'll be working on your upper-body strength. Time for some push-ups! Go on, drop and give me twenty!
 * Elise: T-t-twenty push-ups? Like, in a row?! Is that even possible? And besides, aren't push-ups for big, burly, muscular types? Not cute little girls?
 * Avatar: That's just silly. Push-ups are for everyone. Everyone serious about training, anyway.
 * Elise: I see... Well, if you say so, Avatar. Here goes nothing... One... Two... Three... F-four...
 * Avatar: You're doing great. Keep it up!
 * Elise: Fiiiiive... Ugh...
 * Avatar: What's the matter? You're not quitting already, are you? If you want to get stronger, you can't give up when things get tough.
 * Elise: But...my arms are wobbly... and I'm getting all SWEATY.
 * Avatar: No pain, no gain. When you can't take any more, remember why you're training. You want to be a stronger version of yourself, right? This is how you'll get there. Think you can handle it?
 * Elise: I...I CAN! I want to be better! Stronger! SWEATIER!!

 * Avatar: Why would you say that? You've been doing so well!
 * Elise: ... I-I think I've gotten a tiny bit stronger, thanks to you. But... But... But when I encounter an enemy on the battlefield all alone, I still get so s-scared! If I keep being such a weak baby, I'll never stop being a burden to everyone!
 * Avatar: Elise...
 * Elise: I want to help protect everyone... I wanna protect you and Xander... and Leo... and C-C-Camilla... and everyone else too... I just want everyone to be safe and happy and to *sniff* live peacefully. But for that to happen, we've just got to win this stupid war! I can't keep holding us back by being the weak link...
 * Avatar: Elise... You sweet, silly girl. Dry those tears. I understand how you feel, but I promise things aren't so bleak.
 * Elise: Avatar...
 * Avatar: War isn't just about fighting. To truly win, you must believe in what you're fighting for. You have such a pure desire for peace, and that's invaluable in times like these. So no, Elise, you're definitely not a burden. You're a ray of light in the dark. Now show me that smile, and please, never stop trying to improve. You're doing great.
 * Elise: Avatar... Th-thank you, Avatar! You always know just what to say. I love you so much!
 * Avatar: I love you too, Elise.
 * Elise: All right then, no more messing around! I'm gonna become the best me ever! I won't stop until I'm the invincible, unstoppable, legendary princess of Nohr.
 * Avatar: Haha, that's the spirit!

 * Laslow: Aha! If it isn't the lovely Lady Avatar.
 * Avatar: Huh?
 * Laslow: I caught you, you incorrigible flirt! Were you not eyeing me just now? Perhaps admiring my flawless smile or my manly bearing?
 * Avatar: What? No, I was just walking by.
 * Laslow: Oh. Are you sure? How peculiar. I could have sworn I felt someone staring at me.
 * Avatar: Be that as it may, it wasn't me.
 * Laslow: Perhaps I was mistaken. My apologies, your beautifulness. I never wanted to hurl false accusations at such a vision of loveliness as yourself. Truth be told, I'm happy you weren't staring. It makes me uncomfortable. Anyways! Since we're both here, perhaps milady would like to join me for some tea?
 * Avatar: Ah...I guess I have time. Sure.
 * Laslow: You do?! You mean you accept? This is so unexpected! I'm not sure how to react. (Breathe, Laslow! Breathe!)
 * Avatar: ...On second thought, I think I'm busy. I have to...um, do...stuff. Royal stuff.
 * Laslow: Ah, there it is. Rejection, my dear old friend...
 * Avatar: Aw. You poor thing. ...Now, if you don't mind, I'll be on my way. Bye!
 * Laslow: Hey! Not so fast! Life is full of twists and turns and unexpected happenings! We should approach each day as if it were our last, as for all we know it will be! Just think, tomorrow I could be spirited away—or worse! What if you never have an opportunity to see me again? Would you not give anything to then apologize for how you reated me? Perhaps...over a cup of tea?

 * Laslow: Lady Avatar! We meet again!
 * Avatar: Hello, Laslow.
 * Laslow: We really must quit meeting like this! Unless... Perhaps it's fate? Yes, I hear it now! The very stars whisper our names, my sweet!
 * Avatar: Must you do this every time? We see each other every day.
 * Laslow: Hm. I suppose you've a point. But I prefer to treat each meeting as if it were special. Because it is! We will never meet precisely the same way at the same time again. I think we should treasure every moment of our lives as much as most do gems.
 * Avatar: I see. Quite the romantic, aren't you?
 * Laslow: But of course! Speaking of which, I have a gift for you, milady.
 * Avatar: Oh. What is it?
 * Laslow: It's a special salve with unique restorative powers.
 * Avatar: Really? Wow! Thank you so much! It looks expensive. Are you sure I can have it?
 * Laslow: Of course! I only ask you remember this fateful crossing whenever you use it.
 * Avatar I will. You know, there really is something beautiful about your point of view. Maybe I should try harder to treasure every moment.
 * Laslow: I'm delighted to hear you're coming around! After all, no one knows where their friends may disappear to next. Life is more fragile than most of us ever imagine... One moment, a friend is standing beside you, smiling. And the next, they're gone. And you realize that you will never see them again.
 * Avatar: Laslow?
 * Laslow: Hm? Oh! Haha. Silly me. My apologies, milady. All this is just to say you never know—you know? It's as true for me as for anyone else. I won't always be around, after all.
 * Avatar: Huh? Are you planning on going somewhere?
 * Laslow: Maybe. Maybe not. For the moment, however, I am thinking of visiting some of the fine shops in town. Would you care to join me, Lady Avatar?
 * Avatar: I suppose I have— Oh. I see what you're doing. You can't trick me that easily! I think I'll pass. Thanks.
 * Laslow: You wound me, milady. I assure you, I had only the most innocent intentions! But, in all seriousness, we should always remember that we are soldiers. At war. There's no guarantee that we will meet again with smiles on our faces.
 * Avatar: That's...true.
 * Laslow: So won't you please reconsider? I value our time together very much.
 * Avatar: Laslow...
 * Laslow: Yes, my dove?
 * Avatar: How many women have you used these same lines on today?
 * Laslow: You would be the eighth, milady.
 * Avatar: I'm sure you'll have a fine trip into town alone.
 * Laslow: Ah... And just like that, history repeats itself. Oh well... Then I only pray we shall meet again! Until next time, milady.

 * Laslow: Lady Avatar, you grace me with your presence once again.
 * Avatar: Hello, Laslow.
 * Laslow: Do you think you could find it in your heart to join me for tea now?
 * Avatar: Yes, I believe I can.
 * Laslow: Dohoho! Rejected again! Ah, well, another day anoth—Er, wait. You mean you will?!
 * Avatar: Yes. We never know when next we'll meet, do we? And perhaps next time you won't offer me an invitation.
 * Laslow: I suppose that's technically possible...
 * Avatar: I've spent a lot of time thinking about what you said before. Every meeting is a once-in-a-lifetime encounter, right? And now that I've come to see things this way, it would be silly of me to reject you.
 * Laslow: Thank you, Lady Avatar.
 * Avatar: But it does make me a little more scared to say good-bye to people than I used to be. When every good-bye could be your last, it becomes much harder to let go. I never thought about it much before, but now it's always on my mind.
 * Laslow: Milady, if I may be frank, I feel that parting is a deeply sorrowful thing. If it were up to me, I'd never have to say farewell to anyone. I've had to do that far too much in my life... But it is not up to me. It's a part of life. And life cares little for our feelings. So it is, I suppose, as important to learn to let go as it is to cherish every moment.
 * Avatar: I agree.
 * Laslow And besides! The sorrow of parting makes reunion all the sweeter, does it not? And saying good-bye to one person usually means saying hello to another. If I had not said good-bye to many people I loved, I'd never have met you, for example. I am truly grateful I was able to make your acquaintance, Lady Avatar.
 * Avatar: I'm glad I was able to meet you as well, Laslow. I'm sure all of the others feel the same.
 * Laslow: Thank you. Now! Enough of this dreary philosophizing. Shall we treat ourselves to tea now?
 * Avatar: Of course! After you, good sir.

 * Avatar: What? Are you angry with me? Did I do something to hurt you at tea?
 * Laslow: No... You haven't done a single thing wrong, milady. Our teatime was amazing. A revelation, even. My heart can't help but dance when you are by my side. But it also cries in pain at the same time.
 * Avatar: Why?! What's wrong?
 * Laslow: I'm terribly sorry. But I believe I've fallen in love with you, Lady Avatar.
 * Avatar: Y-you're joking!
 * Laslow: Would that I were, love. But lately I find myself staying up all night thinking of you. I wish I could just turn my feelings off, but I cannot. Nor can I ignore them. It was all I could do to just keep from telling you until now.
 * Avatar: I never imagined—
 * Laslow: But I did, milady. I imagined we would spend a long and happy life together. But I know it is a foolish dream.
 * Avatar: Why do you say that?
 * Laslow: Because meeting requires parting. And one day I would have to part from you. No matter how much I wish otherwise, when this war is over, we too shall... Well, anyways.
 * Avatar: Laslow, if I were to go somewhere far away, what would you do?
 * Laslow: I'd feel incredibly lonely without you.
 * Avatar: Is that all? You wouldn't try to come with me?
 * Laslow: Of course I would! Say the word, and I will follow you anywhere!
 * Avatar: Perfect. Then you will understand when I say that I would do the same for you. So if you must leave when this war ends... it doesn't matter.Wherever you go, I will go also. After all... I love you.
 * Laslow: Lady Avatar! Thank you. You've no idea how much it means to me to hear you say that.
 * Avatar: Now, no more talk about us parting, all right?
 * Laslow: Of course. We will always be together from here on out. I hope you're ready for that.
 * Avatar: As long as you're ready to give up flirting with other girls.
 * Laslow: Will you accept this ring?
 * Avatar: What a beautiful blue stone. I'll wear it always. Thank you. I suppose the next thing to do is go talk with Xander.
 * Laslow:...Huh?
 * Avatar: What do you mean, "huh"? If we're going to be wed, my brother must be told.
 * Laslow: I suppose you're right. Oh gods, what am I going to do? Lord Xander is going to kill me.
 * Avatar: Don't worry. He won't kill you. Probably.
 * Laslow: *sigh* The things one does for love... This reminds me though. Lady Avatar, I have a request. There are some people I'd like for you to meet as well. People from a place I once called home. They'll love you. I know it. I want more than anything to laugh and smile with them once more...
 * Avatar: I'm sorry, I didn't catch that. Where did you say they were?
 * Laslow: Never mind. It's not important right now! We'll talk about it some other time, though. I promise.
 * Laslow: I love you, and only you. Your smile makes life worth living. I promise to keep you safe… and I swear, I’ll stay by your side, always.

 * Avatar: B-back up there. You killed your own servants?
 * Peri: Uh-huh. I was bored, so I picked up my sword and THWACK! I took a blood bath in the spray that came out! It's good for your skin, you know.

 * Odin: Isn't it obvious? You are witness to a quiet intermission in the play that is my life.
 * Avatar: Intermission? What are you talking about?
 * Odin: Well to put it quite simply, I'm enjoying a nice moment of tranquility.
 * Avatar: Ah, now I understand. Why didn't you just say that to begin with? And why are you holding that strange pose? It looks exhausting.
 * Odin: Oh this? It's a unique creation that I concocted myself. This stance grants me incredible power.
 * Avatar: Huh, I've never seen anyone stick out their hand like that. It's very... unique.
 * Odin: Hahaha...
 * Avatar: What's so funny?
 * Odin: Well it's clear that the moment has come to unveil the origin of this divine creation... That being said, the explanation will take some time...
 * Avatar: Umm, I don't think I need to hear all that. You'll have to excuse me, Odin. *Avatar exits
 * Odin: What do you mean? Hey, wait a second! Don't leave!

 * Odin: Finally! I found you, Lady Avatar.
 * Avatar: Oh, were you looking for me, Odin?
 * Odin: Obviously. I must explain the origin of this unique pose in minute detail.
 * Avatar: I told you before, I really don't need all that information. I was just curious about the weird thing that you were doing.
 * Odin: This unique pose grants me extraordinary power whenever I use my dark magic. Only a chosen one such as myself can tap into the might granted by this creation. I'm sure that you're wondering who chose me. Sadly, I cannot tell you. It is a profound secret that must stay locked away in the pit of my heart.
 * Avatar: O-Ok... I guess that makes sense.
 * Odin: Allow me to propose an idea. I believe that you should come up with a special name for this fascinating pose. With the perfect title, this creation will make me even more powerful!
 * Avatar: Oh, really? I'm surprised that you haven't named it already.
 * Odin: Inspiration has yet to strike. That's why I require your assistance. I feel that the time is right to transfer the naming rights to you. On a cosmic level, I can sense that it is meant to be.
 * Avatar: What do you mean exactly? I'm a little bit confused...
 * Odin: Just what I said! You must rename my holy creation! Help me unleash the true power within! Just think for a moment, then whisper the name into my ear. It's obvious that people will tell tall tales about this moment for years to come. Probably until time itself comes to a halt.
 * Avatar: So you want me to rename it right now? On the spot like this? But I haven't had any time to actually think up a good name yet.
 * Odin: That's fine! It should be spontaneous. Just embrace the sheer joy of creation! Set yourself free, and shout whatever springs immediately to mind!
 * Avatar: All right... Hmm, let's see... Umm...
 * Odin: This is such a thrill! I'm getting goose bumps already!
 * Avatar: Hmm...
 * Odin: Still thinking, eh?
 * Avatar: Listen. I'm sorry. Nothing is coming immediately to mind. Can I have a bit of time to think it over?
 * Odin: Wh-what?! You can't possibly be serious. How could you cast off the honor of naming this beautiful pose?
 * Avatar: I didn't say that I wouldn't do it. Just give me some time!
 * Odin: I'm in shock. It's horribly cruel of you to get my hopes up. How could you?
 * Avatar: Calm down, Odin! You're getting all upset for no reason.
 * Odin: I can't help it! I'm very serious. Please, just think up a name already. Wait, I have an idea. maybe something will come to you if I offer up some ideas first. What do you think?
 * Avatar: Well, if it really means that much to you... Fine, I'll do it.
 * Odin: Outstanding! We can start brainstorming when I next see you!

 * Odin: Pardon me, Avatar. Can we peak for a moment?
 * Avatar: *sigh* You found me...
 * Odin: Well of course I did! I've been thinking a great deal about our recent conversation... To be perfectly honest, no brilliant ideas leapt forward in my mind. This enchanted pose will obviously be talked about for decades to come. But the sheer weight of that knowledge is impeding my creative flow.
 * Avatar: Well that;s too bad. I'm sure you'll figure something out eventually though.
 * Avatar exits
 * Odin: Now wait just a minute! Why are you acting so cold toward me? Can't we talk for a bit? Please?
 * Avatar enters
 * Avatar: Hmph...
 * Odin: We must engage with every single idea, no matter how small. Together we can conceive infinite possible names and debate them freely! That is precisely the sort of conversation that I desire.
 * Avatar: Sorry, but I um...have to go take care of something. Bye, Odin.
 * Odin: Quit making all of these cowardly excuses. This won't take up much time. Please, I'll even do my best not to wear you out. I'll do whatever it takes!
 * Avatar: OK, fine. I can't turn you down if you're really this passionate. But please, let's try to make this brief.
 * Odin: I knew that you'd come through for me! Thank you, Avatar. This means the world to me. When we were speaking before, I felt tremendous joy. Your obvious enthusiasm is a great source of delight and inspiration. That's precisely why you must be the one who decides upon the final name. So what kind of moniker do you think would be most appropriate? Having a general idea would almost certainly make this process easier.
 * Avatar: You just need a basic idea? Hmm... Well it should probably be pretty timeless, don't you think? Something impressive, just like you.
 * Odin: Wait, wait... You think I'm impressive?
 * Avatar: Yes, I do. You can be a little touch to understand sometimes... But whenever we fight together, you're always so calm and assured. All I meant is that it's pretty remarkable.
 * Odin:  R-really?! You mean it? I don't know what to say... I'm beyond thrilled to receive such praise from you. It's as though a lightning bolt of emotion has just struck my heart. Yes. I believe you've touched my very soul. With all these feelings percolating within me, I know just what to do! I have it! The all-important name has finally come to me! It is a glorious revelation. Brace yourself, Lady Avatar... The name of this smoldering pose is... Shadow Glitter!
 * Avatar: Umm, you just named it yourself, Odin.
 * Odin: Ahh! You're right. I got completely carried away. I'm terribly sorry. I'd promised that we would work out a title together!
 * Avatar: Oh, it's fine. I'm just happy that I could lend you a helping hand. In a way, we did figure it out together. And Shadow Glitter is a perfect name. It suits you quite well.
 * Odin: Th-thank you! Just hearing you say that makes me unspeakably pleased. I hope you can still think of me as a reliable friend and companion. I didn't mean to get caught up in my moment of divine inspiration.
 * Avatar: It's find, Odin. I'm just glad that we don't have to talk about it anymore!

 * Odin: The endless screaming inside my soul is utterly unbearable...What is this strange heartache that devours me from within?
 * Avatar: Umm, Odin?
 * Odin: Shh, don't speak to me. I can't possibly listen to your faint murmuring...
 * Avatar: But I only came here because you called me.
 * Odin: I, the chosen one, summoned you?
 * Avatar: If you can't remember what you wanted to talk about, I'm going to head back home.
 * Odin: Whoa, now! Wait just one minute! I know exactly why I called on you. Thank you for coming to see me. I'm sorry for being a bit rude earlier. I lost my composure.
 * Avatar: Why are you so nervous anyways? Is something wrong?
 * Odin: Are you familiar with the concept of matrimony, Avatar?
 * Avatar: What do you mean?
 * Odin: Allow me to explain... It is a binding agreement between two people not related by blood. Those people share feelings of tenderness and love... Which is why they decide to share their lives together.


 * Avatar: Odin, I know what marriage is.
 * Odin: Haha, well of course you do!
 * Avatar: What are you getting at anyway? Why does it matter if I'm familiar with marriage?
 * Odin: Well, um... If you've already been blessed with this knowledge, I'll skip to the point. I must confess something of grave importance. For I wish to propose a bonding of souls for the rest of eternity...


 * Avatar: Odin, skip to the point. Are you asking me to marry you?
 * Odin: H-how did you discover my intentions so swiftly?
 * Avatar: Well it was pretty obvious when you asked about the whole matrimony thing.
 * Odin: Ha. Now I see. You're incredibly quick. Explaining this will be simple. Thou art my--
 * Avatar: I think I'm going to leave now.
 * Odin: What?! You can't go!
 * Avatar: I'm not going to stay here and listen to your dramatic nonsense. I'm sick of the crazy airs you put on. If you want to have a real conversation, you should be honest and direct, Odin.
 * Odin: You're absolutely right. This is no way to propose.
 * Avatar: You're important to me, Odin. So if you're going to do this, then you had better do it properly.
 * Odin: Ahem. Lady Avatar, I have loved you deeply for some time. There are so many things that I wish to share with you. I hope that I can be someone that you grow to rely on in the years to come. I'll do everything I can to protect and cherish you in every possible way. As proof of my feelings, I've brought you this ring. Granted, it's not filled with brilliant gems and stunning diamonds... But it's the most valuable thing that I could possibly find. Please, take it as a symbol of my devotion. Won't you marry me, Lady Avatar?


 * Avatar: That was very sweet, Odin. It was lovely to hear you speak so honestly. Of course I'll marry you.
 * Odin: Really?! You will! By the gods, I've never been happier! Ah, but there is one other thing...
 * Avatar: Oh? What is it?
 * Odin: One day, I will be wrapped in a black wind and carried back to another dimension. For I am but a lowly mage tormented by the cruel goddess of fate...
 * Avatar: You're already back to this again? I have no idea what you're talking about.
 * Odin: I'm sorry. I thought since I proposed already that you wouldn't mind.
 * Avatar: Do you know what a mood is? Because you're completely ruining it right now.
 * Odin: You're right. I'm terribly sorry.
 * Avatar: Just allow me to enjoy this moment, and then you can return to your ways. From this day forward, I will accept you and your quirks. I love you, Odin.
 * Odin: And I love you, Lady Avatar.
 * Odin: The stars shall go dark before my devotion to you fades. Uhh, I mean... I love you.

 * Avatar: OK...
 * Niles: Meow!
 * Avatar: Gah! What was that for?
 * Niles: Sorry, I just felt like teasing you. I'm all done now. So if you are genuinely curious about what I'm doing... Please, feel free to come a little closer...
 * Avatar: Well...
 * Niles: Scared of what I might do next? I don't blame you. I haven't yet earned your trust. It's smart of you to be skeptical.
 * Avatar: No, no... I trust you.
 * Niles: You do? How foolish! After all, I don't yet trust YOU.
 * Avatar: What?! Why not?
 * Niles: Because we barely know each other, milady. Trust is often borne out of a violent confrontation or traumatic experience. I suppose you must have had some kind of blessed childhood, free from worry.
 * Avatar: I don't remember anything of my childhood.
 * Niles: My apologies. Clearly a sore subject. Of all people, I should know better than to probe the secrets of a troubled history.

 * Avatar: Niles, do you have a moment?
 * Niles: Still fishing for a story about my sordid past, are you?
 * Avatar: No, it's not that. I think because my memories are so limited... I'm always curious to hear about other people's backgrounds.
 * Niles: I see. You know, I do believe you are genuinely curious.
 * Avatar: I am. So, would you be willing to share a little bit of your past with me?
 * Niles: Very well. But you should know up front that it's not all lollipops and puppy dogs. Since I was a child, I've had to do a lot of unsavory things just to survive. Steal, beg, kill—just another Tuesday for li'l Niles, sadly.
 * Avatar: Gods...
 * Niles: Surprised? I haven't even gotten to the good stuff.
 * Avatar: I'm so sorry. I think I've heard enough for now. I should have known better than to pry.
 * Niles: Please, it's all in the past. But you should know that if we continue, there is a nonzero chance you may faint.
 * Avatar: I'm so sorry. You're putting on a brave face, but I can't imagine...
 * Niles: No. If anything, I should apologize to you. You asked so sweetly, and here I am teasing you again. My past was troubled, and I certainly suffered a great deal. But it is all in the past, and I don't mind sharing. At least, I don't mind sharing with someone whose motives are pure. As I believe yours are.

 * Avatar: Niles? Is something wrong?
 * Niles: No, of course not. I just thought I'd offer you the pleasure of my company.
 * Avatar: Oh. Heh! Yeah, that sounds good. It's been a while since we've chatted.
 * Niles: Oh? A chat? With a near-infinite array of more stimulating activities available to us?
 * Avatar: Do I dare ask for an example?
 * Niles: Oh, let's see... How about low-friction tactical grappling and strategy?
 * Avatar: Uh...I've never heard of that. What's involved?
 * Niles: Oh, it's a valuable training technique. First, we simulate the conditions of low friction by applying oil to our bodies. Then we practice various situational grappling techniques.
 * Avatar: Niles, that just sounds like oil wrestling. I don't think I'm ready for that.
 * Niles: Very well! Then I suppose we'll just have to have a VERY stimulating chat.
 * Avatar: Yes, that sounds good.
 * Niles: Hmm...
 * Avatar: ... Niles?
 * Niles: You know, I'm afraid I'm fresh out of stimulating topics of conversation.
 * Avatar: Oh...I see.
 * Niles: Isn't that peculiar? There's nothing I wish to discuss, and yet I approached you today. Why is that?
 * Avatar: I...I couldn't tell you.
 * Niles: Perhaps I just wanted to see that flustered look on your face again. No, that's not it... Perhaps, in a twisted sort of way... I wish to connect with you as a person.
 * Avatar: Heh. Niles, there's nothing twisted about that. It's normal.

 * Niles: Hmm. I suppose it depends. On how you respond to the topic at hand.
 * Avatar: All right... So, what did you want to talk about?
 * Niles: I was just wondering...if you believe a person can be irreparably damaged.
 * Avatar: You're talking about yourself. Is that how you feel about yourself?
 * Niles: No. But I was wondering if that's how you perceive me.
 * Avatar: Where is this coming from?
 * Niles: Do you believe a person with a broken past can build a real future?
 * Avatar: Well, I certainly hope so. If you'll recall, my past isn't exactly a fairy tale.
 * Niles: Oh, I know! So given two people with equally complex histories... What do you think would happen if they joined to create a new future together? As a married couple.
 * Avatar: A married couple?!
 * Niles: Yes. I've done a lot of thinking about this. You and I have so much in common. You're the first person I've ever met who has shown genuine empathy for me. And I don't believe that's a coincidence.
 * Avatar: This is a lot to take in.
 * Niles: Do you think you could marry me? I want you to take this ring.
 * Avatar: Niles...
 * Niles: You seem hesitant. Very well, I was aware that my chances were slim...
 * Avatar: You speak too soon, Niles.

 * Avatar: I don't understand. What kind of repairs can you possibly --
 * Effie: Here, I'll show you. HRRRRGH!
 * Avatar: Unbelievable! How can you lift that rock with your bare hands?
 * Effie: Aw, it's nothing. Just years of training in service of Lady Elise.
 * Avatar: That's right... You were going to tell me a story about her the last time we spoke. Are you still willing to share?
 * Effie: Certainly. But would you mind terribly if I continue working while we speak?
 * Avatar: Not at all.
 * Effie: Very well. I'll start at the beginning. I was born in extreme poverty -- a child of the streets. And yet Lady Elise herself would often visit my slum in disguise.
 * Avatar: Really? I had no idea.
 * Effie: Oh, yes. Now, let me just grab another rock...HRAAAAAAA! Anyway, as I was saying, Lady Elise visited frequently, and we became fast friends. Hyup. HRRRRRGH! Whew! One day, while we were playing some guards began harassing us. Lady Elise was forced to reveal her identity to get them to leave us alone.
 * Avatar: I see.
 * Effie: Her glory was so blinding at that moment that I can hardly describe it. YAAAAAHHHH!
 * Avatar: Pardon me, Effie, but your repairs are becoming too distracting!
 * Effie: How do you mean?

 * Effie: That's right. It was sad, because we both realized we wouldn't be able to play together anymore. I sat sobbing in the street for hours, until I realized how I could see Elise again!
 * Avatar: Go on...
 * Effie: Well, I realized that I must become a palace soldier.
 * Avatar: Of course. It all makes sense.
 * Effie: If I could make it as a soldier, I'd get to spend time at the palace. And to even be in the presence of Lady Elise once again seem intoxicating. From that day onward, I gave everything in my quest to become a soldier. Fortunately, I turned out to have some aptitude for the profession.
 * Avatar: Yes, I'd vouch for that...
 * Effie: Anyway, it was't long before my dream came true. Lady Elise took me on as a retainer. And that's where things stand today. She brought me hope in my darkest days. I would do anything for her. So, uh, that's my story...
 * Avatar: Effie, thank you so much for sharing this with me. I may have said this before, but Elise is truly lucky to have you as her retainer.
 * Effie: Thank you. That's nice to hear. But...
 * Avatar: But? What's wrong?
 * Effie: Lady Avatar... I feel a bit conflicted. Because lately, you've become so important to me.
 * Avatar: And this upsets you?
 * Effie: Yes -- I mean, no! It's just that...well...Lady Elise is always my first priority. But at the same time, you've been so helpful in battle. And you've taken such an interest in my humble life story...
 * Avatar: Effie, there's nothing to worry about. I understand your feelings for Elise. I would never want to get in between you and her. I know that she comes first.

 * Arthur: The wildfire? Whatever do you mean? This has nothing to do with the fire...
 * Avatar: No? Then why was soaking yourself in water a success?
 * Arthur: Well, we conducted our drill by the river. Safety first, as I always say! Remembering your advice, I went to the river's edge to jump in before we started... That's when I slipped on some mud and fell face-first into the water.
 * Avatar: ... I really shouldn't be surprised. But I'm still confused... How was the day a success?
 * Arthur: Allow me to finish! The river I fell into had some remarkably swift rapids. I pride myself on being the best swimmer in town, but it was too much for even me.
 * Avatar: Good grief. Go on...
 * Arthur: Well, unfortunately for me, I wasn't the only thing fighting the rapids that day. It rained heavily the night before, so the river was full of rocks and broken branches. Every stroke was accompanied by searing pain. It really pushed my limits. However, I didn't lose heart! It's important to keep your cool in emergency situations. With the fury of a thousand sharks pulsing in my veins, I fought with all of my might! Through sheer grit and determination, I somehow made it safely back to shore. All of the villagers gave a huge round of applause when I surfaced. They said it was even more exciting than a wildfire—best show they'd seen in years!
 * Avatar: *sigh*
 * Arthur: It's a mad world, Lady Avatar! One must always be vigilant. Without your advice, I would have never had the chance to test the waters, if you will. I value any chance to grow, so I will surely be coming to you for advice more often. I'm quite certain this marks the beginning of a beautiful friendship!

 * Avatar: Uh, Arthur? There's nothing in here...
 * Arthur: Wha?! The shopkeeper must have forgotten to put it back in after he polished it... I should have double-checked. Of all the times for my luck to plague me, why now?! *sigh* I can take a hint, life. If you'll excuse me, I have some gentle sobbing to do...
 * Avatar: Heeheeheee! HAHAHAHA!
 * Arthur: Lady Avatar... I'm sorry, but I fail to see the humor in this.
 * Avatar: Don't worry, Arthur. I don't need a ring or a pretty view to know what you're saying. I feel the same way. You're so kind and heroic, so intent on helping the helpless. Somewhere along the way... I kind of fell in love with you.
 * Arthur: Lady... I mean, Avatar! Do you really mean it?!
 * Avatar: Heehee, I do! And yes, I would be delighted to be your wife. Besides...
 * Arthur: Yes, darling?
 * Avatar: Well, if we're always together, I can keep an eye on you. Make sure you stay safe.
 * Arthur: Keep an eye on me? Whatever for? Do you think...I'm incompetent?
 * Avatar: What? No! Of course not! It's because... You know, because you're so handsome! You and that stylish "H" belt, heehee.
 * Arthur: ... The "H" stands for "hero." It reminds me to always act humbly and heroically. Thank you, darling Avatar. I can't wait to walk down the honorable road of justice with you at my side!
 * Avatar: I can't wait either!
 * Arthur: Your love is as sweet as the sweet, sweet smell of justice! I love you more than anything. But don't tell justice I said so.

 * Avatar: Hello, Charlotte. Was there something you needed?
 * Charlotte: Nothing for me, no. But for you, milady... For you I have made a wonderful lunch! I hope you haven't eaten yet...
 * Avatar: I haven't, no. That's very thoughtful of you, Charlotte.
 * Charlotte: It is, isn't it? I was back in my tent, thinking about how you're always fighting on the front lines... It seemed to me like a nice lunch might be exactly what you'd need!
 * Avatar: Thank you very much.
 * Charlotte: Could you... take a quick look at it, before you eat it? I just want to be sure that there is nothing in it that isn't to your liking. If there is, I'll throw it out and make you a whole new meal!
 * Avatar: I'm sure that won't be the case, but if it makes you feel better... ... Just as I said, it looks perfect.
 * Charlotte: Really? I'm so happy to hear that! I poured my heart and soul into making this lunch for you, Lady Avatar. I started think about what I would make for you last night, and before I knew it... The sun had risen! Teehee! Anyway I hope you enjoy it!
 * Avatar: *munch* *munch* Wow! This is fantaastic, Charlotte! The way you've mixed the flavors is perfect!
 * Charlotte: Truly? I'm so glad to hear that! It makes all the effort worth it. *sniffle* Oh dear... Please excuse me, milady. I seem to be overwhelmed with gratitude... I must step away or I'll make an absolute fool of myself.

 * Charlotte: It really shouldn't be, though. Aren't all women like this? I mean putting on an act in order to earn favor with others? It's exhausting, and it's nice to be able to drop it once in a while.
 * Avatar: Does this mean that you've given up putting on your act?
 * Charlotte: Ha! As if. Just because I've dropped the act with you doesn't mean I'm telling everyone. You're not the only person I was trying to butter up to get to like me. But I suposse there's no harm in being myself around you all the time. You're not going to judge me for acting are you?
 * Avatar: Not at all. It's just surprising is all. I had no idea, to be honest. But I'd rather talk to the real Charlotte instead of the girl you pretend to be.
 * Charlotte: Really? Wow...
 * Avatar: Anyway, that's not why I came by today. I just wanted to return your lunch box. You left in such a hurry before, you forgot it. That really was one of the best lunches I have ever eaten.
 * Charlotte: I... Thank you, Lady Avatar. It's wonderful to hear that...
 * Avatar: I'm glad to say it. It really was a treat. Also I wanted to return this to you. You left it behind as well. It looked important, so...
 * Charlotte: Is that... Ahhh! Give it here! ... It's for spending money...
 * Avatar: You mail money? Who do you send it to?
 * Charlotte: My parents. It may be surprising to learn, but I actually care about them. Growing up, we never had much, but they always made sure I knew they loved me. Ever since I left home, I've made sure to send them money whenever I can. ... I can imagine you don't believe a word I'm saying though, huh?
 * Avatar: No, I believe you. After all, you have no reason to lie to me about this, right? When you were pretending you seemed helpless and frail. Without that act you seem much stronger. And also... more direct.
 * Charlotte: Heh. Usually people just say I seem really, really scary. In any case, I have no reason to hold back in battle now.
 * Avatar: That is very true. And I imagine, seeing you going all in during battle... I'll be driven to fight better, too!
 * Charlotte: Lady Avatar, I'll work hard to serve you in any way you need... But don't even THINK about telling anyone about the real me, OK?
 * Avatar: Ahaha, I promise.

 * Avatar: So cool!
 * Flora: Yes... but I think we should take such things with a sizable dose of salt.
 * Avatar: Oh, no, you misunderstood me. I wasn't talking about the wishes. It just struck me how impressive it is that you know so many things. I can ask you practically any question, and you always have the answer!

 * Flora: Yes, I suppose I have. I came each morning before we visited it anyway, so I figured there was no harm.
 * Avatar: Huh? You did?
 * Flora: Yes. I needed to survey the area and the route to ensure they were both safe. Traps, terrain, criminal elements—I had to confirm none of these would endanger you.

 * Flora: There's no need for you to feel that way. I am perfectly all right as I am, milady.
 * Avatar: I thought you'd say that... but I think happiness might still find a way to you.
 * Flora: Hm?
 * Avatar: Because my wish was for you to live a happy life.
 * Flora: Huh?!
 * Avatar: And since your wish is that my wish would come true, you're doubly insured!

 * Gunter: It was indeed. A pretty odd choice for material, I know...
 * Avatar: Gunter... Would you be willing to tell me a few stories from when I was growing up? I still have a lot of holes in my memory from when I was little.
 * Gunter: Of course. But you'll have to pay attention to the ball at the same time! Did I ever tell you how come I made this ball from a whip? No... King Garon was in an especially foul mood one day. He summoned me and handed me a whip. "You must teach Avatar to behave!" he said, almost yelling.
 * Avatar: Was I truly that problematic?
 * Gunter: Not in the least, in fact. But you were really closed off around everyone. King Garon was greatly displeased by that. So I took the whip from him, and I made my way to your room. I thought I was ready, but one look at your face...I turned right around, returned to my room, and broke that whip down into leather. And that's what this ball is made from.
 * Avatar: What an unexpected turn! You turned something meant to punish me into a toy.
 * Gunter: Indeed. I knew that striking you wouldn't ever get you to open up to anyone. So I came up with a different method - one that used this ball. I returned to your room sometime later, and I rolled the ball over to you.
 * Avatar: Which I immediately picked up, examined, and threw back to you.
 * Gunter: Oh, you remember this part? Good.
 * Avatar: Of course! No sooner did you catch it than you were throwing it back to me again. Something about such a simple game was really fun to me. I suppose that was when I started to see you as a father figure...
 * Gunter: You... You are much too kind. Ah, now look at what you've made me do.
 * Avatar: Gunter! It's rare that you miss a catch.
 * Gunter: My sincerest apologies. There was... something in my eye.
 * Avatar: Getting sentimental in your old age? Hang on, I'll get you a handkerchief.

 * Dwyer: Oh, sorry.
 * Avatar: Just tell me what's on your mind. You'll feel better if you get it off your chest.
 * Dwyer: I've been thinking a lot... I'm just afraid that I'm not suited for war.
 * Avatar: Why do you say that?
 * Dwyer: You know why. I hate getting into fights. All I would do is weigh everyone else down in the heat of battle.
 * Avatar: Oh Dwyer, you know that's not true.
 * Dwyer: Maybe I should leave the army and go off to be a butler or something.
 * Avatar: No, you can't do that.
 * Dwyer: Huh? Why?
 * Avatar: This is your home, Son. You should be fighting here, with us.
 * Dwyer: But why?
 * Avatar: Because you're sweet and compassionate.
 * Dwyer: No, I'm not.
 * Avatar: You are. You just tried to hide your troubles to keep me from worrying, right? No matter what, you're always thinking of other people first.
 * Dwyer: That's just more proof that I have no business on the battlefield. There's no room for kindness there.
 * Avatar: You're wrong about that, Dwyer. I've seen you help your friends even when it puts you in a difficult position. That's a very thoughtful thing to do, and it certainly isn't easily. When I look into your eyes, I can see that it's as natural as breathing to you. You're selfless.
 * Dwyer: I never thought of it like that. Thank you, Mother. I'll do what I can to help my friends.
 * Avatar: That's the spirit, dear. You should be proud of yourself. Just know that I'll always be here to protect you.

When I got back, I decided to see if he could catch one in his mouth, but... I let go in the windup, and the apple hit an old lady behind me instead! Also, Avel fell over.

 * Avatar: You're lucky to have such understanding friends.
 * Sophie: Yeah, I think so too!
 * Avatar: I think I know why they were so eager to help...
 * Sophie: Maybe they were worried I would burn everything?
 * Avatar: No, that's not what I had in mind. Seeing your vibrant spirit encouraged them to try their hardest, too.
 * Sophie: It did? I don't know...
 * Avatar: That's why I was trying to tell you there's nothing wrong with you, dear. No one who brings smiles to so many can be as hopeless as you think.
 * Sophie: OK, Mother! I think I can remember that. Oh! Also, I think I found some flowers nearby that I'm sure you'll like. We can go check them out together!

 * Avatar: Buuut...?
 * Midori: But sometimes I get so carried away that I wind up losing my way and getting lost.
 * Avatar: Lost?
 * Midori: Yeah! And last time I only got back 'cause I ran into some people from town. So I'm scared to go out herb hunting by myself again.
 * Avatar: I see. That does sound like quite the conundrum.
 * Midori: B-but how can I make medicine for everyone if I can't even get the herbs? I don't wanna be a disappointment...
 * Avatar: Don't worry, Midori. I'm sure no one will be disappointed in you. But if it bothers you that much, then I'd be happy to go with you!
 * Midori: Really? You would?
 * Avatar: Mhm! That way I can make sure you don't get lost. And, if it's OK with you, I'd love it if you taught me about all the herbs we pick.

 * Midori: Of course I'm sure! It's really good for you! And it even tastes super good!
 * Avatar: Oh? Really? Even though it's medicinal?
 * Midori: Yup! It's not all bitter like most herbs.
 * Avatar: That's so neat! I almost want to try a bite right now.
 * Midori: Ooh, looky! There's another special herb growing right over there!
 * Avatar: Midori! Wait! Didn't I just get done telling you to not run off?! Here, how about you start marking your path as you go.
 * Midori: Marking my path?
 * Avatar: Yeah, like carving a symbol into the trunks of trees you pass. That way you can find your way home later.
 * Midori: Oh! Avatar, you're amazing! I'll carve an X into every tree I pass from now on! An X here! And here! Aaaand here!
 * Avatar: Good job, Midori. Keep it up!

 * Avatar: Of course. Here, just a second, and... All right, you should be free now.
 * Midori: Thanks!
 * Avatar: Hrm. I guess this paln is a bust too.
 * Midori: Aww. Maybe I should just give up on gathering herbs.
 * Avatar: Don't give up yet! We'll come up with a plan that works! I know it!
 * Midori: Are you sure?
 * Avatar: Positive. And I'll keep marking trips into the forest with you until we do. How does that sound?
 * Midori: Itsounds perfect! And don't worry about finding a solution too soon. There's no rush. I love having your company on these little trips!

 * Avatar: Midori? What's the matter?
 * Midori: I just ran into a bunch of kids in the forest who were planning to go in much deeper. But I warned them it wasn't safe for kids their age to be doing that without an adult. And then one of them said "Who are you to tell us what to do, huh?" "You're just a kid yourself! Bossy-pants!" And then they kept chanting that at me. "Bossy-pants! Bossy-pants!" They didn't stop until I left. It was infuriating!
 * Avatar: Aw. I'm sorry, honey. Did the kids get home safely, though?
 * Midori: Yeah. I stayed and looked out for them the whole time. I just wish I didn't look like such a kid. Why is that, Mother? You and Father don't have the same problem. Why do I? I'm already, like, fully grown up! It's so frustrating.
 * Avatar: I don't think I can answer that, Midori. Some people just take longer to grow. But I'm very proud of you looking out for those little ones.
 * Midori: But---but---
 * Avatar: Come now, don't be like that. You did the right thing. Sometimes we just have to be satisfied with that. Not everyone appreciates a good deed, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't do them.

 * Shiro: Oh, morning, Avatar! I was just out trying to spear a fish or two. I know my way around a lance, after all! See how many fish I've snagged already?


 * Avatar: That's enough to feed an army. You caught all of these single-handedly?


 * Shiro: Sure did! Shh—I just saw another one. Hyah!


 * Avatar: My, you're quick with that spear.


 * Shiro: Cut it out, before you embarrass me. Hey, what if I cooked some of these fellas for breakfast? They're good eating!


 * Avatar: Oh, no, I couldn't ask you to trouble yourself.


 * Shiro: Trouble? No trouble at all! I should warn you, though, I'm not as good with a skillet as I am with a spear.


 * Avatar: Pfft, you're too modest. I'm sure it will be delicious.


 * Shiro: Hahah, well, we'll see. I actually already cooked a few in case anybody came by wanting one.


 * Avatar: Hmm? Oh, is that what the campfire by the riverbank is for?


 * Shiro: Yep. It takes too long to roast them one by one, so I do it in batches. I figured all the serious eaters would be by at some point... Looks like you're the first!


 * Avatar: I-I'd hardly call myself a "serious eater"!


 * Shiro: Hahahah! Here, this one looks just right for you.


 * Avatar: Wow, that does look tasty... OK, let's have it. *chomp* *chomp* Wow! It's delicious!


 * Shiro: See? You're a connoisseur after all.


 * Avatar: This may be the best fish I've ever tasted. Is it because it's freshly caught? Or do I have your skills as a chef to thank?


 * Shiro: Good question. I dunno. But seeing as you liked that one so much... Go ahead and have some more. I'll join you!


 * Avatar: You're a generous sort, aren't you, Shiro?


 * Shiro: Who, me? I don't know about that... I just felt like putting all this together. But never mind that—there's more fish ready to eat. Come on, dig in! You gotta try the trout!

 * Avatar: Errm...thanks, I think! But this makes five meals of fish in a row, and I'm ready for something else. Besides, there is something I wanted your advice on...


 * Shiro: I'd be glad to help.


 * Avatar: You've fed me so many fish now that I feel I should repay you for them somehow. Why don't I act as your partner for lance practice?

 * Avatar: Very well.


 * Shiro: Whew! What a workout. I appreciate you taking the time to train with me. I can already see a few ways to improve my technique!


 * Avatar: I'm happy to assist. But they tell me you never miss a day's practice... Is there a reason you're training so hard?


 * Shiro: Hmm? Oh, for my father, I guess.


 * Avatar: Ryoma? You're trying to outdo him?


 * Shiro: Yes. My father's outlook is pretty... old fashioned. We don't agree on much. But no one can touch him when it comes to pure skill in a fight. If you had a father like that, wouldn't you feel the need to push yourself all the time? That's why I never let up practicing. One day I'll beat him.


 * Avatar: I think I can sympathize. But, Shiro...if anyone can surpass Ryoma, I'd bet on you.


 * Shiro: Then you'd win your bet! Though of course, that's not my highest priority right now. I've still got to bring peace to the world, and other little things like that.


 * Avatar: Indeed. I'm training for the same reasons.


 * Shiro: You? No way! You're already terrifying! It's hard to pin down, but you're strong in a way that's different from my father. I'm trying to learn from you as best I can.

 * Shiro: No! That's not good enough! I wanna spend time with you now. I mean, I can't spend time with Dad. He's always preoccupied with the war. I guess you don't see him often either. Has Dad ever even given you a gift or anything? How do you know he even cares about you?

 * Avatar: Yes. I've kept every piece of correspondence that he's sent me over the years. This here is the first one he sent. And this is the most recent.
 * Shiro: Wow. Dad really likes to write a lot.
 * Avatar: He certainly does. I never would have dreamed that he would be so diligent with his writing. He expresses his love for me in person too. But I think letters allow him to open up and be more in touch with his emotions. I just love this side of his personality. It's very romantic. Heehee, let me guess. This wasn't what you were expecting, right?
 * Shiro: Not at all. I guess I've always thought of Dad as being stiff and formal all the time. Maybe I've been wrong about him this whole time. So what kind of stuff does he write about?
 * Avatar: Oh, Shiro. That's strictly between me and your father. I can't show you.
 * Shiro: Now I'm even more curious! But I guess knowing that he really cares will have to be good enough.

 * Shiro: No, it's not good enough.
 * Avatar: Huh? What do you mean?
 * Shiro: Well, it's not very special if I just do the exact same thing as Dad, right? That's why I'm going to treat you to a homemade meal too!

 * Avatar: Heehee. How funny. Your father once said something very similar to me.

 * Avatar: I'm just happy I didn't cause you any problems. I'm still so new to this... You, on the other hand, are truly amazing.
 * Kiragi: Yeah, right? I'm pretty sure I'm the best hunter alive! Of course, I wasn't always so unbelievably skilled. I might never have become a hunter at all if it hadn't been for my caretakers. They were always squawking in my ears, "Princes should stay inside!" "It's too dangerous out there! What would the kingdom do if it lost a prince?!" And one day I just got fed up! I decided I had to start going out into the real world! I think it all turned out all right, if I do say so myself.
 * Avatar: Aw... Well I'm glad you managed to find a way to do what you love.
 * Kiragi: It was so fun back then, even when I didn't catch anything. Everything was so fresh and exciting. I snuck out every day to go for a hike!
 * Avatar: Heehee. I'm pretty impressed, Kiragi.
 * Kiragi: Huh? Why's that?
 * Avatar: You know how I said I was kept inside my entire childhood? Well, I longed to see more of the outside world, just like you did. But I never really managed to get away with escaping. Not for lack of trying.
 * Kiragi: Aren't you out now, though?
 * Avatar: Well, yes, but through no virtue of my own. That's why I think it's so impressive that you managed to follow your dreams. You got out due to your strength and determination. That's inspiring.
 * Kiragi: Heehee. Aw, stop. You're making me blush! Well, if you'd like, I'll teach you everything I know about hunting. Just ask!
 * Avatar: Heehee. OK! I'll keep that in mind.

 * Avatar: Hello, Kiragi. About to go hunting again?
 * Kiragi: Nope! I actually just got back!
 * Avatar: Oh, then could I borrow you for a second? I wanted to talk to you about something.
 * Kiragi: Um, sure. What's up?
 * Avatar: Remember how you told me you hate people treating you like a prince? I don't think you really need to worry about it as much as you think.
 * Kiragi: Huh?
 * Avatar: If I understand you correctly, what really bothers you isn't all the conventions. You're worried that others will not see the real you behind "the prince."
 * Kiragi: Huh?
 * Avatar: What I mean is...I don't think you're that bothered by fancy talk or special clothing. I think you're afraid people will think you're weak or uninformed because you're royal. You just want people to acknowledge you for yourself and not your title. But the thing is...I think everyone already does that.
 * Kiragi: Why do you say that? I told you about my caretakers, right?
 * Avatar: I don't think they were really all that worried about the kingdom. They were worried about you. You were their charge. They didn't want you hurt. The people I grew up around...they all loved me, and not because I was a princess. I'm sure it's the same for those who took care of you.
 * Kiragi: Avatar... You're probably right, you know? But...I didn't realize it at the time. And I don't think I left on good terms.
 * Avatar: I'm sure they understand that you had your reasons.
 * Kiragi: Yeah, maybe... Thanks for taking the time to chat with me, Avatar. Heh. I feel like a huge weight's been lifted off my shoulders. Almost makes me miss the Deeprealms a little bit. Maybe I should write my caretakers a letter sometime...
 * Avatar: What was it like there?
 * Kiragi: Oh, it was incredible! We were surrounded by nature on all sides! It was the perfect place for a natural-born hunter to grow up! When this war is over...I wanna go back there, I think. We should go together.
 * Avatar: Haha. Very well. But only if you promise to introduce me to everyone you grew up with! Deal?
 * Kiragi: Haha. Deal!

 * Kiragi: *pant...pant...pant* I just realized...something and wanted...to tell you...right away...so I ran to see you! I was on...that mountain...over there...so it was a bit...of a trek!
 * Avatar: Huh?! But...that mountain must be 10 miles away! Please tell me you took some breaks!
 * Kiragi: Enough—*pant*—about that—*gulp*— This is important. Do you have some time?
 * Avatar: Of course. What did you want to discuss?
 * Kiragi: I just... I realized that I have the most fun when I'm with you!
 * Avatar: And you ran all this way to tell me that?
 * Kiragi: Yes! Er, well, no! See, lately, I just don't have fun when I go hunting by myself. Even if I catch something, I'm not happy. Even if it's big!
 * Avatar: O-OK...
 * Kiragi: But, when I go with you, I have fun even if we don't catch a thing! The time just flies by when we talk! So, I guess what I'm trying to say is... I think I'm in love with you, Avatar!
 * Avatar: Wh-what? Come again?
 * Kiragi: I love you! I love you! I love you more than anyone! So...would you want to...um...be together?
 * Avatar: Kiragi...
 * Kiragi: I-is that a no?
 * Avatar: No, Kiragi...I love you too. You're the kindest, sincerest, most easygoing person I've ever known. I'm so lucky to have met you!
 * Kiragi: Then, you mean—
 * Avatar: Yes. My answer is yes!
 * Kiragi: You mean it?! HOORAY! WOOHOO! Aw yeah! Yeah yeah yeah! I don't think I could possibly be happier!
 * Avatar: Heehee! I didn't expect you to be so happy!
 * Kiragi: Why wouldn't I be? My favorite person in the whole world loves me back! Hey...Avatar. Wanna go hunting?
 * Avatar: Huh? Right now?
 * Kiragi: Yeah! Don't you think it's a fitting way for us to celebrate today? It was hunting that brought us together, after all! Come on! Let's go!
 * Avatar: K-Kiragi! Kiragi? How can he be so fast?! Kiragi! Wait for meeeeee!!

 * Kiragi: Ah, the great outdoors! What a perfect day for some hunting! The mountains are looking particularly appealing... But I did see a lot of game in that field the other day, too. So many choices!
 * Avatar: Stop right there, Kiragi.
 * Kiragi: Yikes! H-hey, Mom. You sure are good at sneaking these days.
 * Avatar: Oh, did I scare you?
 * Kiragi: Obviously. You look like you're about to attack me!
 * Avatar: That's because you're out here, and you absolutely shouldn't be. What am I going to do with you...
 * Kiragi: I'm really sorry... I promise I'll do it as soon as I get home.
 * Avatar: Right, right. That sounds awfully familiar. Every time you get home from hunting, you just grab something to eat and fall asleep. Not this time.
 * Kiragi: B-but I'm terrible at math. And history is way too hard!
 * Avatar: That's why you need to work harder! I already told you that I would help with your studies.
 * Kiragi: I can survive being bad at math and history. I don't see what the big deal is.
 * Avatar: Kiragi, there is bad, and then there is abysmal. You are beyond abysmal. Your father and I should have realized that much sooner, and we're sorry. But now that we're all together again, we want to do everything we can to help you. I know it doesn't seem like it, but this will be so good for you!
 * Kiragi: *grumble*
 * Avatar: Come on, let's go home. I know how much you love hunting, but someday you'll thank me for pushing you.
 * Kiragi: No! This isn't fair! Hunting is the only thing I have to look forward to! Don't try and take that away from me. You may be my mom, but you can't force me to do anything! I'm going hunting, and I don't care whether you like it or not!

 * Kiragi: What an amazing day! No one will be going hungry anytime soon. That bird sure gave me a lot of trouble. I should look it up when I get home. Maybe I need to build some new traps, too.
 * (Kiragi leaves)
 * Kiragi: OK, careful... Easy does it. I can't let Mom know that I was out hunting instead of resting. "Work harder on your studies!" That's all she ever thinks about... Like I need math or history to be a good hunter.

 * Kiragi: Y-you knew I wasn't here?
 * Avatar: Well of course. You forgot to close the bedroom door when you left.
 * Kiragi: Oh, I did? Oops. Listen, I just wanted to say that... Well, I'm sorry, Mom. You're putting so much energy into helping me learn, and then I just run off to hunt.
 * Avatar: Shh, it's all right, Kiragi. It's important that we both understand where the other is coming from. I know how much you love hunting. I just want you to balance that with some studying too!
 * Kiragi: I will! I didn't realize how much this mattered until I saw you just now... Please, teach me! I want to learn about math and history!

 * Kiragi: Oh yeah. I know you normally start on the right... But if you make an assumption here, you can skip a lot of extra calculations! The book said it was an advanced method, but it didn't seem all that tough.
 * Avatar: An advanced method, huh? Well, your answer is correct. Nicely done, Kiragi!
 * Kiragi: Hehheh! Thanks, Mom!
 * Avatar: Your history assignment is looking perfect as well. All the years, locations, and important events are in the right spots. You didn't miss anything at all. I'm so proud of you!
 * Kiragi: It was a lot easier once I started thinking of them as fantastic stories. Random facts are so much more difficult to remember. And I've got a great teacher, too!
 * Avatar: I was happy to help, Kiragi. But all of this progress is due to your hard work!
 * Kiragi: Stop, Mom. You're going to make me blush!

 * Avatar: We've been raided!

 * Avatar: I mean our food! Someone managed to break into the mess's storage room!
 * Asugi: ...Isn't there a watch assigned to that room round the clock?
 * Avatar: Yes! And they didn't see anything! Which is why this is such a problem! We have no idea how they got in! Which means it could happen again.
 * Asugi: I see...
 * Avatar: Asugi, do you have any idea how this might have happened?
 * Asugi: ...Nope. Nah. Not a one. Mm-mm. No, ma'am.
 * Avatar: Um...OK. Suspicious answers aside, if you think of something, please, come to me. I'll be heading the investigation personally. This is too important to delegate. If they hit our food again, they may take far, far more. And if we don't have food, we don't have an army.
 * Asugi: Yes'm. I'll keep my peepers peeping. Now, if you'll be so kind, I'll take my leave. I have some affairs to see to.

 * Avatar: *pant pant* Asugi!

 * Avatar: Yes. Those thieves hit our food supply again.
 * Asugi: I see.
 * Avatar: I swear I will catch the dastards that did this and bring them to justice! If this keeps up, I shudder to think what will happen to us. Thankfully, they've only managed to get away with a trivial amount of food so far...
 * Asugi: You've a right to be angry, I s'pose.
 * Avatar: Huh?
 * Asugi: Stealing is a crime, after all. It's not right, taking from others for one's own gain. But, then, how many people steal food out of selfishness?
 * Avatar: ...What do you mean?
 * Asugi: I mean that there can be good reasons for stealing. See, this may be hard to believe, but not everyone who's poor deserves to be so. And nobles have more wealth than they can shake a candy cane at. The world could use some...rebalancing now and then. That's why we have noble thieves—to take from the rich and give to the poor.
 * Avatar: But how are we supposed to prevent chaos if we just let people steal? What did the nobles do to deserve to lose their property?
 * Asugi: *snort* What did they do to earn it? A little chaos can be a good thing. Besides, you'll find that the poor aren't greedy. They take what they need. Like you said, only a small amount of food was missing from our stores.
 * Avatar: I...I mean, that's true, I guess...
 * Asugi: Anyway. That's all. Catch you later, Boss.

 * Avatar: Asugi! Is it true?! Were you the one that caught the thieves?!
 * Asugi: Damn it. Who ratted?
 * Avatar: It never even occurred to me that they would be children. How did they even get in?
 * Asugi: There was a hole in the back, hidden behind a mound of dirt.
 * Avatar: If you knew this, why didn't you say anything about it? This is a major security risk! What if someone else had found it?!
 * Asugi: The hole is tiny. Barely big enough for a hound. It was pretty clear no adult could get through it, and there's no other way in. Besides, it's pretty much always children who steal food. Especially in that amount.
 * Avatar: Huh?
 * Asugi: Adults always go after money. They understand they need more than food. But kids are more straightforward. They follow their stomachs. Anyways, I don't want to make a big deal out of this. For their sake. You're not going to help them much by giving them anything. These kids have parents. Which means anything you give the kids ain't theirs.
 * Avatar: And you don't think the parents would do the right thing...
 * Asugi: I visited them. They're not the virtuous type. It's hard to be virtuous and poor. I did arrange something with the local grocer, though. Heard he was trustworthy. He agreed to look out for them as well as he could. Make sure they weren't hungry. And I got the kids to promise they wouldn't steal so long as they were fed. Hope one of them takes it to heart.
 * Avatar: Y-you did all that?
 * Asugi: Eh? Sure. Why not? Didn't have anything better to do.
 * Avatar: I guess I just...didn't expect it of you.
 * Asugi: Heh. Glad to know I inspire such raw, trusting admiration.
 * Avatar: Er, not that I ever had a bad opinion of you. I think I just...misunderstood you. You've taught me some important things, Asugi. We need to keep in mind the people we're supposedly trying to do this for. Without them, all our efforts amount to little more than another power struggle. Even if we don't see them, we must always keep them in mind.

 * Asugi: Oh, cram it. Anybody'd do the same. Who doesn't like to look after kids?
 * Avatar: Plenty of people. You're much kinder than you let on. Speaking of which...I wanted to apologize. For suspecting you were the food thief. It's just...it seemed so obvious. You had the skills and the knowledge. And you've got an insatiable appetite for desserts... I couldn't help but suspect...
 * Asugi: Yeah, I know. You're pretty easy to read. Most earnest, naive types are. But I like that about you. It's what makes you admirable.
 * Avatar: Thank...you? But, really, I must apologize for thinking you had anything to do with it.
 * Asugi: I'd be real annoyed if it were anyone else, but I think I can let it slide this once. But only because it's you.

 * Avatar: You didn't notice? Who'd you think's been leaving all of those candy apples in your quarters?
 * Asugi: Th-that was you?
 * Avatar: Yes. I wanted to pay you back for what you did for those kids. And, well, we all love giving presents to the object of our secret affections. You're so kind, Asugi. I think it's very... admirable.

 * Avatar: Well, that's great! I'm really glad to hear that. So, you're all done questing for horns and antlers and other types of trophies?
 * Selkie: Nope! Now we've gotta go get you a pair of cute fuzzy ears just like mine! Since you like 'em so much, you know!
 * Avatar: Um...
 * Selkie: What? You don't have to wear 'em when you're a dragon or anything. Plus, it'd be another great chance to go running in the forest. Wheeee!
 * Avatar: Selkie, we don't need an excuse to go hang out in the forest. We can just go! So, please...let's not scalp the ears and tail off any poor woodland creature...
 * Selkie: OK, sounds good to me. Let's go!

 * Avatar: Hello, Hisame. What are you eating?
 * Hisame: Avatar?! What are you doing here? You surprised me!
 * Avatar: I'm sorry! It just looked like you were having a little snack. I was going to see if you'd be willing to share. But now that I see you're just eating raw veggies...I'll be on my way.
 * Hisame: Raw veggies? Please tell me you're joking. Are you completely ignorant of the fine art known as pickling?
 * Avatar: I...I suppose I must be. What's pickling?
 * Hisame: Gods. OK, deep breath, Hisame. Pickling is the time-honored art of preserving vegetables. You essentially brine the vegetables in a broth of vinegar and salt.
 * Avatar: Ah, so you preserve them by making them taste even more repellent?
 * Hisame: What a dark and desolate life you've lived in the absence of pickles. Listen, I'm going to give you a pickle, and you are going to eat it. You do not have a choice in this matter.
 * Avatar: All right. Here goes nothing. *crunch* *crunch* Hey, that's not bad!
 * Hisame: You see?
 * Avatar: I do. I'm afraid I'll need another bite. And you're going to have to tell me where you got these.
 * Hisame: Oh ho! I made them myself, of course. I've perfected the recipe over many years.
 * Avatar: Wow. So while other children were out playing, you were making pickles?
 * Hisame: Yes. Much to the dismay of my father, I might add. But never mind that. Now that you're hooked, we must expand your palate. Shall I stop by with some new varieties for you to try later?
 * Avatar: I'd love that! Thank you!

 * Avatar: This does look like a lot of food. I hope you didn't go to too much trouble...
 * Hisame: It was nothing. I pickle constantly in my spare time.
 * Avatar: *crunch* *crunch* I mean, these are delicious, but how did you come to be so dedicated to pickling?
 * Hisame: Well, you know how some people rebel against their parents? Staying out late? Wearing silly clothing? Breaking the rules? I made pickles because my father hated them.
 * Avatar: Oh. I'm sorry to hear that.
 * Hisame: It's OK. Ancient history. However, I will say that one of my life's goals is to make a pickle so good... ...that my father will actually eat it.
 * Avatar: Well. If these pickles aren't good enough, it seems you have a long road ahead.
 * Hisame: Perhaps. But in the meantime, I will surely get to enjoy many a delicious pickle.
 * Avatar: Well, good luck. And thank you again for the delicious pickles.

 * Avatar: Hello, Hisame! Thanks again for all those pickles the other day. How's your latest batch coming along?
 * Hisame: Ah, Avatar! They're coming along quite nicely. Thanks for asking. I wonder if you're ready to take the next step... Would you like to learn how to make your own pickles?
 * Avatar: Really? You'd teach me? I guess I assumed that your recipe would be a closely guarded secret.
 * Hisame: Nothing of the sort. One of my goals is to popularize pickle consumption. So, of course, I'm always happy to share.
 * Avatar: Great! It's funny; I never thought I'd be getting this excited over something like pickles.
 * Hisame: And I never thought I'd be able to converse so freely with a beautiful woman. I mean, uh...
 * Avatar: Um, what?
 * Hisame: Sorry...that was awkward. But that's exactly what I meant. Unless I'm talking about pickles, I tend to get flustered around women.
 * Avatar: Well, I never would have guessed. You seem perfectly at ease to me.
 * Hisame: Well, as long as we keep this relationship strictly pickle-platonic, I should be fine. So, to that end, I believe we were discussing you learning how to pickle.
 * Avatar: Yes, that's right. What do I need?
 * Hisame: You will need only the basics. A few jars, a few ingredients, and my knowledge. Come! Pickle paradise awaits!
 * Avatar: Pickle paradise? I can't imagine why you'd have a hard time talking to women...

 * Avatar: Aww, thank you. I couldn't have done it without your help.
 * Hisame: Well, your success is encouraging. It has encouraged me, in fact.
 * Avatar: Oh? How so?
 * Hisame: This may get awkward. Please brace yourself... But I've found that I can't stop thinking about you, Avatar. Even when I'm mixing my pickle brine, my thoughts drift to you. Is it strange that pickles should have brought us together like this? Am I totally off base? Have I gone too far? You're...you're not saying anything. Oh, gods, what have I done?

 * Avatar: Yes! Hisame, I've been falling for you since the day we met. I don't care that it took the power of pickles to bring us together.
 * Hisame: I can't tell you how happy this makes me. Just think...we could grow old together. We could be that old couple at the park that always smells like pickles.
 * Avatar: Look, I like pickles, but THAT is too far. Let's just take this one step at a time.
 * Hisame: You're right, Avatar. I'm sorry. We're still pickle partners, though, right?

 * Avatar: Hey, Hisame. I had some questions about that old diary of yours...

 * Avatar: No, I didn't. Don't worry. It just got me thinking, is all. When you were little, we didn't get to spend much time together, right? So I was wondering if you might be willing to share anything you happen to find in it... Things about you. What you were like. Stories and stuff... Is that OK?
 * Hisame: Of course it is, Mother. It makes me very happy to hear you ask that. Hm. Perhaps we could read it together?
 * Avatar: Are you sure? You seemed so upset at the idea I'd read any of it before.
 * Hisame: Yes, I'm sure. I think it will be fine, so long as I can skip any parts I don't wish to share. I truly don't remember what is in it.
 * Avatar: Heehee. All right. Let's do it!
 * Hisame: Right now? All right, let me just find the key... Ah! There we go. Now, let's see... "Today was a great day. Mama came to see me!" "I wonder when I'll get to see her next. Maybe it'll be real soon this time!" "We got to play a lot today. I don't think I'll feel lonely again for a while!" Haha. It appears as though I wrote about your visits on nearly every page.
 * Avatar: Hisame... You were always thinking about your father and I, weren't you?
 * Hisame: Oh, well, I don't know about that. I am pretty surprised that there's nothing about my daily life in here, though. You'd think I'd have written about something else. At least a few times... But I suppose those visits were always the things I looked forward to most. They were rare treats, after all.

 * Avatar: No, no. I'm just still thinking about your old diary. I was very happy you let me read it with you, but...it was hard to hear. You were always waiting for us to come visit you, and we made it so rarely... I'm so sorry, Hisame... We caused you so much pain.
 * Hisame: Please...it's all right. I understand why things had to be the way they were. Besides, I'm happier now than I have ever been. As a child, all I'd think about was when I might see you and Father next. But now I fight alongside you. I can contribute. I have purpose. So do not trouble yourself too much over me. I am content.
 * Avatar: Hisame... Thank you. I'm sorry for letting you see this side of me. I have to be strong.
 * Hisame: I did nothing. But I do hope you're feeling better.

 * Caeldori: You have?
 * Avatar: I wasn't allowed out as a child, so I used to spend a lot of time indoors. As a result, I ended up reading a lot of books. Romance VERY much included.
 * Caeldori: I see. Your childhood doesn't sound so different from mine. I didn't know many children growing up, so books had to serve as my companions. In the end it was good for me, as it meant i learned a lot. But it was lonely at times.

 * Caeldori: I think... I'd rather not.
 * Avatar: Huh? Why not?
 * Caeldori: The one I wrote wasn't that good either. I think. I just took stuff from other stories I liked and put them all together to make mine.
 * Avatar: Oh, I see. I guess that makes sense. I probably just liked it because I like all those clichés too... But I still think what you did takes a lot of talent!
 * Caeldori: Thank you, Avatar. But I think this has taught me that writing isn't for me. I'm much happier just being a reader.
 * Avatar: Me too! I can't wait until we're done with this war. The second it's over. I'm going to just disappear into a library somewhere.

It was your work ethic that gave me the courage to improve myself. You made me understand that I didn't need to be naturally perfect to succeed in life. Everything I have achieved, I have done through hard work. Not natural genius. So thank you, Mother. I would not be who I am without you.

 * Avatar: Great. Let's hear it.
 * Rhajat: Well... you've been wondering why I'm so obsessed with you...
 * Avatar: Because I saved your life. Right?
 * Rhajat: No. Because you saved my life TWICE.
 * Avatar: What?! How is that possible? We never met before Hayato led us to your village.
 * Rhajat: Oh yes, we did... Do you remember when you came to visit my Deeprealm? There was a wild little girl there who ran around tirelessly, curious about everything.
 * Avatar: That was you?!
 * Rhajat: It was! I know it doesn't sound like me at all... but my whole life changed that day. In all my youthful enthusiasm, I nearly ran myself straight off a cliff. But you were there to catch me. It took me until the other day to make the connection that it was you. Heh, heh...
 * Avatar: Gods... I do remember that! But that little girl--I mean, you... You were so different. So... outgoing.
 * Rhajat: Yeah, well... that incident changed everything.
 * Avatar: I'm so sorry.
 * Rhajat: Don't be! It was the happiest day of my life. It made me realize that life is precious and I should be a little more selfish. Hayato hated it, but I started dabbling in the dark arts... teaching myself magic. Honestly, I owe you everything.
 * Avatar: Well, you're welcome, I guess...
 * Rhajat: Is that all you have to say?
 * Avatar: I'm sorry. I'm just in shock. I might need a little time to process this.
 * Rhajat: OK. See ya.
 * Avatar: Wait! Rhajat!
 * Rhajat: Yes?

 * Rhajat: Avatar... I need to know something. What were you about to say the other day?
 * Avatar: Oh, right. It was nothing. I was just going to apologize.
 * Rhajat: For... what?
 * Avatar: For the way I treated you when you first started stalking--I mean WATCHING--me. I see now how much impact I've had in your life... It's totally understandable that you'd have strong feelings toward me.
 * Rhajat: Understandable, huh... You're talking to me like I'm still a little girl.
 * Avatar: Gah! You're right. I'm sorry again. Let's start over, shall we? I'm Avatar--nice to meet you! Let's pretend I haven't saved your life twice.

 * Avatar: Well, one should get to know her own stalker--that's what I always say. So, did you need something?
 * Rhajat: Actually...yes.
 * Avatar: Well? Is it bad? You look upset.
 * Rhajat: I...I just wanted to let you know that I'm going to stop following you around.
 * Avatar: Really? Why?
 * Rhajat: Because that's what you want, isn't it? I've been a nuisance this whole time. That's no way to treat your hero.
 * Avatar: Your...hero? Gods... Rhajat, I'm so sorry to have given you the wrong impression. To be honest... I've enjoyed having you around...pretty much all of the time.
 * Rhajat: Do you mean that?
 * Avatar: I do. I don't know what I'd do anymore if I looked up and you weren't there. I...I've even followed YOU around once or twice.
 * Rhajat: What?! And I didn't notice? Grr!
 * Avatar: Hah! Maybe I've learned a thing or two from you.
 * Rhajat: I assure you that you still have more to learn. But I'm glad to see that you're becoming as obsessed with me as I am with you.
 * Avatar: Perhaps we should stop sneaking around each other like this...I'd like to spend the rest of my life with you in plain sight.
 * Rhajat: Eh, that doesn't sound so great. I'd like to be stalking you at least 20 percent of the time.
 * Avatar: Fair enough. Will you marry me, Rhajat?
 * Rhajat: I will. I love you, Avatar!
 * Rhajat: I've got you right where I want you. And I'm never going to let go...

 * Avatar: Siegbert, I see you reading that book all the time. What is it?
 * Siegbert: Hello, Avatar. It's a collection of paintings by one of my favorite artists.
 * Avatar: Oh really? May I take a look? A wheat field at harvest time… A calm ocean… You're a fan of scenery paintings,  I take it?
 * Siegbert: I am, though I like most all paintings, really. I tend to take to looking at these paintings in particular after a long battle. They’re…calming, somehow. They help me to relax.
 * Avatar: I think I can see why.
 * Siegbert: You’re more than welcome to borrow the book, if you'd like.
 * Avatar: That’d be wonderful! Are you sure you won't miss it?
 * Siegbert: Not at all—I have a decent collection of others that I can look at in the meantime.
 * Avatar: Then I'll take you up on your kind offer. Thank you!
 * Siegbert: The pleasure is all mine.
 * Avatar: This does have me wondering, though… Do you ever paint your own paintings?
 * Siegbert: It's…just a hobby. Growing up, I received instruction in all of the various arts.
 * Avatar: Talented with a brush and a sword… You’re definitely Xander’s son.

 * Avatar: Oh? Now I'm curious.
 * Siegbert: I'd like to give you a shoulder massage.
 * Avatar: Much as I'd appreciate that, I don't see how you stand to benefit.
 * Siegbert: Like you, I've been feeling some aches and pains. One of the healers here showed me some pressure points to relieve the pain, but I can't really find the spots when I try to massage myself. If I could practice on your shoulders, you could tell me when I find the spots.
 * Avatar: Haha! This sounds...convoluted, but now I have to know if it will work.
 * Siegbert: Excellent! Thank you, Mother. Here, try and relax...
 * Avatar: Aahhh...You're very skilled, Siegbert. I don't feel nearly as sore as I did. Thank you. Is there anything I can do for you in return?
 * Siegbert: No need for concern, Mother. I'm the one who should be thanking you. Now that I know where to apply pressure my pain will be a thing of the past.

 * Avatar: You're right—it's exquisite. I'd rank it with the finest needlework I've seen.
 * Forrest: Oh, you flatter me, anybody with a spool of thread and some time could do this much. Though if you like it, I could embroider a few cute embellishments on your outfits.
 * Avatar: Hmmm…that’s a very tempting offer. Forgive me for saying so, buts it's hard to see you as anything but a young lady.
 * Forrest: Is that strange to you? I can't imagine myself any other way. Ever since I was small, I've worn the clothes that enchanted me most.
 * Avatar: It's not strange at all. I admire your boldness in expressing yourself.
 * Forrest: Is that really and truly how you feel?
 * Avatar: I promise. Objectively speaking, you look amazing in that outfit.
 * Forrest: You're very kind, Avatar. Hmm, come to think of it… would you object if I sewed you a new dress? Not that there’s anything wrong with what you're wearing now, but… I think you would look very chic in a frilled skirt!
 * Avatar: I'd love that! I'm not as sure as you that I'd wear it well, but… if you have the time, I'd be honored to own one of your creations.

 * Forrest: I don't want to stir up any commotion.
 * Avatar: What do you mean?
 * Forrest: Well it shouldn't be a problem, I suppose.
 * Forrest: As long as I don't open my mouth, people will just assume I'm a girl.
 * Forrest: I wouldn't want you to be embarrassed when folks discover I'm a boy.
 * Avatar: I'm not worried about what anyone thinks.
 * Forrest: ... Well, I appreciate that. But might I get your honest opinion?
 * Avatar: Always.
 * Forrest: I've always dressed however I feel, and back home people respected that.
 * Forrest: Here I find that's not always the case, and my clothing makes it harder to fit in.
 * Avatar: Hmm. You do dress ostentatiously, for a man or a woman, but...
 * Avatar: some people simply grew up sheltered and have trouble with the unfamiliar.
 * Forrest: Yes. It doesn't happen everywhere, but I catch people staring sometimes.
 * Forrest: And once I've noticed, I wonder what other judgements they make. Who else they hurt.

 * Forrest: What might be even better is if I made one covered in darling patches.

 * Forrest: I helped him get home, of course! The poor dear was so confused. I don't understand. It's one thing to stand by idly, but they were laughing at him!
 * Avatar: Ah, Forrest...
 * Forrest: I know I shouldn't be surprised. People can be incredibly unkind. Sometimes I wish I could shut myself up in my room... forever!

 * Forrest: What do you mean? Mother, you are beautiful! The dress simply drew attention to your lovely face.
 * Avatar: You're almost as good with flattery as you are with a needle and thread. However, it wasn't the dress that had me feeling so proud.
 * Forrest: It wasn't?
 * Avatar: A stranger asked me a question that would delight any other mother. She wanted to know if I had raised the charming girl she'd seen the other day. She saw you help that old man, and she was impressed by your kindness.
 * Forrest: Really?!... I just realized something. I can't let the laughter of cruel people stop me from being who I am. Long ago, I decided I wouldn't let them change the way I dress... and I certainly won't let them stop me from being compassionate towards others.
 * Avatar: That's good to hear!

 * Ignatius: Well, I wish my fears were more rational. How do you face your fears, Avatar?
 * Avatar: Anytime I have to do something that frightens me...I think about the people who mattered most in this world. When I remember what I'm fighting for, I feel a little braver.

 * Avatar: So that's it? You're just gonna stop practicing?
 * Percy: Can you blame me?! No matter how much I try, it's pointless. No one will ever acknowledge my skills. They'll just blame it all on luck. And the worst part is that they'll be right.
 * Avatar: Tell me again what you want to be someday.
 * Percy: Huh? I want to be a great knight like my dad.
 * Avatar: What is it about your dad that makes you think he's a great knight?
 * Percy: He's super determined, and he'll fight with all he's got to overcome any obstacle!
 * Avatar: And do you think you could be like that if you didn't train and work hard?
 * Percy: ...No, I guess not. That stuff comes from the inside.
 * Avatar: Exactly.
 * Percy: Thanks, Avatar. I guess I'll keep training after all. I'll practice lots and lots and work hard each day. And someday, I'll show everyone that I can be a great knight too! I promise!
 * Avatar: I believe in you, Percy. I think you'll be a legend someday.

 * Percy: Sure! That'd be great!
 * Avatar: All right! I won't lose this time!
 * Percy: Time to show off the results of my training! HYAH! Take that!

 * Avatar: Aww. I lost again...
 * Percy: I won! I won! Woohoo! Though...I probably had some help from my good luck again.
 * Avatar: W-well, they DO say luck is just another skill, right? But I have to say, that first blow you landed was masterful. I believe you've improved.
 * Percy: You mean it?! For real?
 * Avatar: I mean it. You've definitely improved.
 * Percy: Wow! Thanks, Avatar! I hope you'll keep training with me!

 * Percy: Er, I mean it's a new motto, OK?
 * Avatar: Heehee. OK, OK, whatever you say, dear.
 * Percy: Anyway, I gotta train fast so I can get strong enough to protect you!
 * Avatar: Oh? That's very sweet of you, dear. But, either way, you need to take your time when you eat, OK? Otherwise you'll get a tummyache. And if that happens, you can't train, right?

 * Avatar: My energy…smells?
 * Ophelia: More importantly, a bad aura can muck up your entire life!
 * Avatar: It can? Is there something we can do about it?

 * Soleil: That doesn’t narrow it down much.
 * Avatar: She had short, golden hair and a green dress on. You leaned in close and said, “I didn’t know they grew them that cute here.” Then I think I heard you whisper, “It's especially cute when you blush like that.” “If only you'd just let me show you how much I really love you…”
 * Soleil: Oh, OK, I know the girl you're talking about! I think. 90 percent sure.

 * Avatar: Heehee. Seeing genuine embarrassment on your face… It feels like a victory, in a way. And I don’t mean that badly. It humanizes you somewhat. It makes you more relatable…gives us more in common than we had.

 * Nina: I thought we agreed to never speak of...my hobbies...ever again!
 * Avatar: I'm sorry, I shouldn't have spoken so negatively of them. I thought you showed a real gift for subterfuge in your writings.
 * Nina: How many of my diaries did you read, Mother? Jeez!
 * Avatar: Enough to compile into a training manual for the troops. I credited you for your many valuable insights on stealth operations, of course.
 * Nina: WHAT?! Why would you do that? WHY?
 * Avatar: Because I'm so proud of you, and I want everybody to know it.
 * Nina: Great. Now everyone knows what a huge freak I am. Thanks, Mother.
 * Avatar: It's not freakish so much as...special. Unique, let's say. Definitely one of a kind, which is why I love you so much, my dear Nina.

 * Anna: ...
 * Avatar: What's wrong, Anna? You were smiling a moment ago.
 * Anna: Huh? I was smiling?
 * Avatar: What? You don't remember? Just a minute ago, you were showing me a bunch of different goods. And I told you that I didn't need anything... But you gave me some expensive makeup and said I could pay when I had the money.
 * Anna: I... I didn't do that.
 * Avatar: I'm telling you, you did! I refused again, but you said, "You can pay the interest with King Garon's signature." And then you happily skipped off, shouting, "I'm gonna make bank today!"
 * Anna: That sounds like me, but... I swear it wasn't.
 * Avatar: Huh? What do you mean?
 * Anna: It was probably one of my sisters. I have quite a few of them, and we all have the same name, same looks, and same job. My sisters live all over the world, so it wouldn't be odd to run into one of them.
 * Avatar: I don't even...
 * Anna: You wanted to know what's wrong, right? I was worrying about those very sisters. I can understand why we look alike, but why were we all named the same? I'm strongly considering doing some rebranding and changing my name.
 * Avatar: I...can't say I blame you.

 * Avatar: Anna, you're looking rather glum again... Err... I suppose I should ask first, but are you...our...Anna? You're the Anna who was thinking about changing her name, right?
 * Anna: Yeah, don't worry. I'm that Anna.
 * Avatar: Oh good. I didn't want to make that mistake twice.
 * Anna: Thanks for double-checking. Ughhhh...
 * Avatar: That was a pretty big sigh.
 * Anna: There'd be no need for you to check who I am if I could decide on a new name. But I just can't come up with one. Nothing I think of feels like it really fits. Do you have any good ideas? I'd pay really well for your best ones. ...Wait, I don't want to waste my gold. How about King Garon's signature instead?
 * Avatar: Eh, no thanks. I really don't need my father's signature. Besides, I don't think he'd give you one to give me, even if you asked nicely.
 * Anna: I...I suppose you're right. Awwww, why is this so hard? I want a name that captures my personality! Something that is unique to me and me alone.
 * Avatar: Something that captures you and your personality... How about Goldy...or Casha? Or maybe Sellma, or Salestia?
 * Anna: Those certainly fit me, but I can't say I'd like to be called any of them. Besides, all my sisters could fit those, too.
 * Avatar: Hmm... This really isn't easy... I wonder if your parents had a hard time deciding too.
 * Anna: Huh?
 * Avatar: I would think it'd be really inconvenient to give all your children the same name...
 * Anna: You're right... I wonder why they did that... I'm going to think about it for a little bit.
 * Avatar: Let me know if you figure it out!

 * Anna: Oh, Avatar!
 * Avatar: Anna, did something good happen? You look like a huge weight has been lifted from your shoulders.
 * Anna: It has! I've decided to stick with the name Anna.
 * Avatar: I'm happy for you! But why the change of heart?
 * Anna: After we talked, I started to think about my childhood and living with all my sisters. Then I realized something amazing. You might not believe it... Whenever my parents needed one of us, they'd just yell our name... But only the Anna they meant to call would respond.
 * Avatar: Huh? What do you mean?
 * Anna: The way my parents said our names would change ever so slightly. Anna only has four letters, but there are actually a lot of different ways to say it. We were able to train ourselves to listen for the differences. Here, it'll make more sense to you if I show you how it's done. Say my name in a few different ways.
 * Avatar: All right... Anna.
 * Anna: ...
 * Avatar: And I guess... Anna.
 * Anna: ... You need to raise that last part. Go up when you say the "na."
 * Avatar: Er...OK. Anna.
 * Anna: That's it! Right there! That's me! My parents would say my name by slightly raising the "na" at the end. That's precisely why it shows my personality. I think compared to my sisters, I'm a bit more determined to succeed.
 * Avatar: I don't quite...
 * Anna: Maybe my parents named me... with the belief that I would never give up on a goal, no matter what. That I'd always try to end anything that I did on a high note, like my name! When I think of it that way, I'm certain I can continue being Anna. I still don't know why my parents gave us all the same name, though. Regardless, thanks for sticking with me on this, Avatar.
 * Avatar: I'm glad things worked out for you, Anna.
 * Anna: I wouldn't have found my way if it wasn't for your help. Would you like a signature from King Garon as a reward?
 * Avatar: ...No thanks. I'm good.
