Happy Birthday Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Dorothy: Happy birthday, Master! Claudia: Congratulations. Dorothy: Ah, I feel like I'm in ecstasy. I've been sooo looking forward to your birthday! We'll make sure to provide you with our most affectionate services today! Claudia: Zzz... Dorothy: Really, Claudia? Now's not the time for a siesta! Claudia: Is it truly my fault for feeling tired after helping you tail our master these past few days? Not to mention all the quirky things we had to prepare...
2	✔	Dorothy: Happy birthday, Master! Claudia: Happy birthday. I trust you'll find our festive preparations exceed your expectations. Dorothy: Get ready for the kind of first-flight service only two veteran maids can provide, all for you and all day long! Claudia: Make sure you don't get soft from all our grade A pampering. Dorothy: Don't worry, Master! Even if you're as soft as a marshmallow, I'll wait on you hand and foot! Claudia: That's what worries me.
3	✔	Claudia: (Captain), happy birthday. Dorothy: Now, do let us wait on you hand and foot... Claudia: Dorothy. If we do so, nothing will have changed from last year. Is it not also our duty to oversee and spur on (Captain)'s growth? Dorothy: Oh... Well, in that case... If it helps you grow ever more skilled in being served, do let us wait on you hand and foot! Claudia: Sigh... I realize today is a special day... But take care that Dorothy doesn't spoil you rotten.
4	✔	Claudia: Happy birthday, (Captain). This is the start of another wonderful day. Hee-hee... How should I go about this... Dorothy: Grr, it's no fair! I wanted to be the one to give special service to our master this year! Claudia: Please, Dorothy. I beat you in rock, paper, and scissors fair and square. I've up come up with a special birthday training menu just for you, (Captain). Dorothy: Hrm... But... Claudia: Besides... This could be your chance, Dorothy. After a tiring workout with my whip, (Captain)'s going to find any service from you to be extra sweet. Dorothy: That's a good point! Just wait for me, (Captain)—I'm going to make things right! Claudia: Though I don't know if (Captain) will still be conscious when I'm done... Well then, let us get started.
5	✔	Dorothy: Master! We just had a famous mystic tell your fortune! And guess what? Seems all the stars are aligned in your favor today! Hehe! Today's going to be your best birthday yet! Claudia: If you'll please follow me, I think you will find that we spared no effort in the party preparations. Hm? Do I seem more enthusiastic than normal? Dorothy: Oh, there's a reason for that! See, the mystic had a message for Claudia too. "Serve your benefactor as they have served you, and all of your wildest dreams will come true!" Claudia: If I can only provide (Captain) with the utmost service, then soon, Lyria shall fall... Heh... Hehehe... Dorothy: Don't you worry about her, Master. Dorothy's here one-hundred-percent out of loyalty to you!

Happy New Year Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Dorothy: Good morning, Master! C'mon, Claudia, say your New Year's greetings! Claudia: Ah, do you mean the special greeting we came up with last night? On your mark, get set... Dorothy & Claudia: Lovely New Year! Whee! A splendid LNY to you. Dorothy: Wha? I thought we agreed on something more cutesy! Claudia: But LNY is cutesy. Then again, we did decide that late at night...
2	✔	Dorothy: Happy New Year, Master! Claudia: Happy New Year, (Captain)! Dorothy: The first thing you should do this New Year's is eat this meal I just finished preparing! And of course, I will spoon-feed you every bite! Claudia: Stop right there, Dorothy. The first thing (Captain) should do is get into the bath I just finished scrubbing. Dorothy: What! Food comes first! Claudia: How one begins the year means everything. For a clean year, (Captain) must have a clean body. Dorothy: Master. Claudia: (Captain). Dorothy & Claudia: Which will you choose?
3	✔	Claudia: Yawn... New Year's is a time for ease. It seems even I am wont to lounge about... Dorothy: Well now, Claudia! The new year has just started and already you are being idle! We must never be remiss in our duties to our Master! Claudia: I've already tidied up—hours ago. I believe I've earned my rest. And I am certain that even (Captain) wishes to be at leisure on New Year's Day, without worry of anyone's censure. Therefore, there should be little issue... If I, too, take a... Zzz... Dorothy: Oh, I do say! Claudia!
4	✔	Dorothy: Master, happy New Year! Claudia and I just got back from our shrine visit! Claudia: I took the liberty of pulling a fortune for you while we were there. I'll read it out loud, so pay attention. Ahem... "If you pay the hardworking maid in your service, you'll be rewarded with luck." "But your year will be filled with incredible fortune if you allow said maid to be accompanied by a certain beauty whenever she's on break." Dorothy: Huh... Wait, Claudia! Don't just make up stuff that's not written on there! Claudia: Tch, so you saw through me... Dorothy: Who wouldn't! Master, I actually pulled a fortune for you too! "Entrust your body and soul to the maid by your side for good luck. Your lucky item is a flamethrower!" Claudia: I am certain none of those words are written on that slip of paper. Dorothy: Aw... Well... At least keep that stuff in mind for this year, Master!
5	✔	Dorothy: I'm so happy we were able to watch the first sunrise together. Claudia: Now, (Captain), allow us to formally wish you... Dorothy & Claudia: Happy New Year. Claudia: And, as per your request, we've made preparations for a mochi-pounding event. We've bought the flour, steamed the rice, and mashed the red beans. I only wish Eugen weren't parading about in a fundoshi and being an affront to decency. Dorothy: As for you, Master, we have some lovely happi coats prepared, so what say we get you changed?

Valentine's Day Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Dorothy: Here you are, Master! We put all our heart into making these chocolates! A few special somethings went into making them, you know! Like... Our bosoms ablaze with passion, teehee... Claudia: Our desire to repay you for letting us aboard the ship... Dorothy: Our expectation that we'll get to know you better... Claudia: Our ulterior motive of hoping you'll shower us with gifts and much more a month later... Dorothy: C'mon, Claudia! You're not supposed to say that! Claudia: Is it not the truth? Now to saunter over to Lyria and hand her my oh-so-special gift. Hee-hee...
2	✔	Dorothy: Master! We've prepared Valentine's Day chocolate for you this year as well! We've chosen various ingredients to give each chocolate its own unique taste! My chocolates are sweet and full of love. Sometimes honey as well... Claudia: My chocolates include some failed experiments. Personally, I don't think they taste that bad... Dorothy: Claudia! We said we weren't going to include those, didn't we! Claudia: Blame my capricious nature. (Captain), take whichever you like.
3	✔	Dorothy: Master! May I present our most wonderful... Claudia: Valentine's chocolates. Dorothy: Oh, this year, we decided to try making 100% identical chocolates! But, Master... You can tell which chocolates are mine, can't you? Claudia: Sigh... I did tell Dorothy there is no way of differentiating. Appearance, taste... They're all the same. But Dorothy absolutely insists that you, of all people, will be able to tell. Dorothy: Why, of course my Master would know! Isn't that right, Master? Claudia: Oh, and as this has become a test of your abilities, I was most scrupulous in the preparation of my chocolates. There should be no difference whatsoever. Will you indeed be able to tell? Let us see the full extent of your capability.
4	✔	Dorothy: Master, we brought you some Valentine's chocolates. Claudia: They might look familiar—just as they did last year—but we've refined the flavor. Dorothy: You being able to tell apart my chocolates from Claudia's last year didn't sit too well with her... So she had us make chocolates that are even harder to distinguish this time around. Claudia: I underestimated your taste buds last year, (Captain). Not intent on making the same mistake twice, I upped the hurdle for myself, mimicking Dorothy's culinary technique as closely as possible. I look forward to seeing how you handle this challenge, (Captain). Dorothy: Same here, Master! Take a bite and let us know what you think. Dorothy & Claudia: "Aah..."
5	✔	Dorothy: Happy Valentine's, Master! Here's a token of our deepest love! Claudia: Yes, "our." That gift is from the both of us. I understand your surprise, (Captain). After all, Dorothy and I used to be rival chocolatiers. Dorothy: But we've since figured out the true meaning of Valentine's! Claudia: Indeed. Valentine's gifts are an expression of appreciation. But we turned it into an expression of our egos. Dorothy: Did you know, when Claudia realized what we'd done, she actually seemed quite sorry... So this time, we decided to come together for you in the true spirit of the holiday! Claudia: I do hope you'll enjoy the result of our collaborative effort. Dorothy: All right, Master! Say "ahh..."
Gift		White Chocolate Cake

White Day Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Dorothy: Wowie! A White Day gift for us? Thanks! Ooh, you wrapped it up in such a nice box! Opening it up almost feels like a shame... Claudia: Hm, it appears to be a safe choice. Dorothy: Claudia, I can't believe you just went ahead and opened it up! Claudia: Mm... Such a profound taste... Would you like a bite, Dorothy? Dorothy: Hold it! It's a symbol of our master's love, so I want to enjoy it with a nice cup of tea! Claudia: But there's only a little left... My apologies, (Captain), but will you shower us with more affectionately-wrapped presents?
2	✔	Dorothy: Master! We get presents this year too? Thank you! And you even wrapped each present individually! We'll take these and enjoy them slow— Ah! Claudia! Why are you taking my present too! Claudia: They both look the same, so I needed to check if the amount was given out equally. I was going to weigh them. Dorothy: Stop it! Master doesn't play favorites! Claudia: But... Your box seems lighter than mine... Dorothy: What! Lies! Does Master really prefer you over me... Claudia: I'm just kidding. They're about the same. Dorothy: Claudia! How could you!
3	✔	Dorothy: Master, do you mean to say that you are holding a tea party in honor of Claudia and me? Why, there could be no White Day's gift more marvelous! Claudia: Hmph. That is a clever scheme. Now, there is no way to ascertain the quantity of each our separate gifts. (Captain), you are quite the strategist. Dorothy: Why, Claudia! Master simply means to enjoy tea with the two of us! That's all! Claudia: It was a jest. Very well then, (Captain). Let the tea party begin.
4	✔	Dorothy: Ooh, a White Day present for us! Love it already, Master! Claudia: Well, look at this... Cookies shaped in our image. Impressive. Though I can't shake the feeling that the Dorothy cookies are a tiny bit larger... Dorothy: That's only natural if you consider our difference in hairstyle! Claudia: It's fine really, but I cannot deny the lack of thoughtful consideration... Huh? Lyria helped you make these chocolates? In that case, I take back what I said. This is the ultimate gift that I will treasure with all my heart. Dorothy: She changed her mind really fast about that, huh, Master...
5	✔	Dorothy: Really?! You've written a letter for us?! How lovely! This is far better than any present! Claudia: Dorothy, do you honestly think (Captain)'s the type of person to just scrawl a few words on a page and pass it off as a gift? Come now. Let's read it. Dorothy: Claudia! I wanted to open it! Claudia: My... These are two invitations to an afternoon tea party on Chocolae Island. I had heard these were premium tickets... You've gone through a considerable amount of trouble for us. Dorothy: Oh, Master! I'm most grateful for your kindness! Claudia: Well, I'd better make the most of these, hadn't I? I think I'll invite Lyria— Dorothy: W-wait! Claudia! Aren't you going with me?

Trick or Treat Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Dorothy: Hey, Claudia... Do we still need more sweets for Halloween? I'm beat from making so many. Claudia: I only ask that you try. Your sweets are the key to my fun time with a certain beautiful girl. Dorothy: Okay, okay... Just make sure to keep your boundaries, okay? We wouldn't want to upset Master (Captain). Claudia: Yes, I try to practice moderation in all aspects of my life. Beautiful girls are to be worshipped like the divine beings they are.
2	✔	Dorothy: Claaaudia, aren't you going to dress up? Claudia: Maids have no need for costumes. All we're doing is handing out candy after all. Dorothy: Awww... That's no fuuun... Claudia: If you have time to complain, you should be making more candy. Dorothy: But don't you think Lyria would enjoy it if you both wore costumes together? Claudia: ! Dorothy: And she's off. Maybe Master and I can wear matching costumes...
3	✔	Dorothy: Master! I've got a lovely costume for you ready. Claudia: Lyria, if you would please don this outfit here... Dorothy: Oh, and I've prepared heaps of sweetmeats for the children! Would you care for a taste? Claudia: I have packed confections for you in a separate pouch, Lyria. I'll go retrieve it, if you would excuse me a moment. Dorothy: Why, Claudia! It's fine if you want to wait on Lyria, but you mustn't neglect Master! Claudia: Well, I'm determined to procure myself a treat this Halloween—and that treat is Lyria's sweet smile. Now, Lyria, I shall accompany you wherever you go. Please let me know when you are ready to depart. Dorothy: What, that isn't fair! Master, do say you'll let me follow you everywhere too!
4	✔	Dorothy: Master! I made a costume just for you! It's cat-themed! Even better, it's a matching costume with mine! Claudia: Wait, (Captain). If it's a costume you need, why don't you try on this knight armor? I happen to be wearing an identical set. Maybe you can ask Lyria to dress up as a princess, then you'll be able to escort her like a knight in shining armor... Hee-hee. Dorothy: Oh, no you don't, Claudia! I'm the one who gets to wear matching costumes with our master! Claudia: I need (Captain) to be my bait—Ahem, Lyria is going to need an escort. Dorothy: Grr... Let's have our master decide! Claudia: Well, (Captain)? Which do you choose?
5	✔	Claudia: We've prepared the pumpkin pastries as per your orders. Would you like to try one? Dorothy: Hehe! Well, Claudia, looks like the pastries are a success! Claudia: Then it's time you fulfilled your end of the bargain. We are spending this Halloween in matching suits of armor. Dorothy: Wait! Wh-wh-what bargain? I never heard about any bargain! Claudia: Dorothy, didn't you and (Captain) wear matching costumes last year? It's only fair that I get a turn. Hehe... Now nothing shall keep me from Lyria... Hehehe... Dorothy: Watch out for Claudia, Master! She's scheming something—I just know it!

Happy Holidays Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Dorothy: Happy holidays, Master! We're pulling out all the stops to make you a fantastic dinner! Claudia: ... Dorothy: Yeah, yeah, I know, Claudia! Don't worry—I'll keep the kitchen clean! Claudia: Please do. Because this is a kitchen that we, as you put it, pull out all the stops to keep tidy.
2	✔	Claudia: Coldest night... A beautiful flower frolics in the snow... Hehe... Dorothy: Gasp! Master! Lyria's in danger. Don't let Claudia get near her! I'm too busy preparing a meal, so I can't protect her myself! Claudia: Always thinking the worst of people... I wouldn't hurt a fly. Honest. Dorothy: Don't listen to her, Master!
3	✔	Dorothy: W-why, Claudia! Whatever are you doing, sneaking about so late at night? Claudia: Why must you speak in such an accusatory manner? I was simply hoping to leave a present by Lyria's pillow. Rather, might I ask what you're doing? I believe that hall leads to (Captain)'s quarters. You could not possibly be meaning to steal into (Captain)'s bedchamber... Dorothy: I-I would never! I only meant to slip a present in Master's stocking! Dorothy & Claudia: ... Dorothy: Claudia, I believe it may be prudent to simply act... Claudia: As if neither of us saw anything, correct?
4	✔	Dorothy: Have no fear! Claudia and I can take care of this year's decorations and feast again! Claudia: It seems like a lot of work for us every year? Oh, please. Don't underestimate us. This much is child's play. Besides, it hardly feels like work when we know Lyria and the other crew members are looking forward to it. Dorothy: Exactly! Master's trust in our abilities is the best holiday gift of all! It's actually fun to clean and cook together. Right, Claudia? Claudia: Well, you certainly know how to increase the workload with your explosions, at least. Dorothy: Awww, don't be like that! I know you have fun teaming up with me! Claudia: I wonder. But that's enough chitchat. Let's get started.
5	✔	Dorothy: Master, there's enough powder out there to bury you in! You can't possibly go to a snowball fight in your shirtsleeves! Claudia: You're free to have your fun, but please put on something warmer. You're just asking to catch a cold. Though if you insist, I'm perfectly happy to let you take responsibility for your own choices. Now, Lyria, on the other hand... No chill must be allowed to seep through her delicate frame. But, yes... On the off chance that it does, I suppose I shall just have to envelop her in a warm embrace... Hee... Hehe... Dorothy: What! Well, if you're going to act like that, Claudia, then I claim all rights to cuddle Master... Wait. Master? Master?! Where've you gone?!

Handmaidens Reunited

Teatime with the maids brings back fond memories of past episodes with them. When Dorothy and Claudia lost sight of each other in the search for their runaway queen, it was (Captain) and company who helped the two reunite.

---

One sunny afternoon, (Captain) and company are getting ready for their next assignment.

The crew members return to their rooms for a short reprieve.

Dorothy: Welcome back, Master! Teehee.

Claudia: Won't you have a seat? Preparations for teatime are complete.

Vyrn: Whoa... It feel like you two have been waiting to ambush us with refreshments every day lately!

Dorothy: Just doing our part! Today's tea is a special Port Breeze blend.

Lyria: Th-thanks, but how are you able to get everything in order so fast every time? It's not like we have a set schedule for taking breaks.

Claudia: Such is the duty of us maids. I've become proficient at gauging your likely rest times, Lyria.

Vyrn: Yeah, cuz you girls are always snooping on us... Dorothy on (Captain) , and Claudia on Lyria.

Dorothy: Ahh, (Captain)! That cookie's still a bit warm to the touch—let me cool it down for you.

Dorothy: Teehee...

Dorothy: Here you go! Say "aaaah..."

Lyria: Hey, you can't do that! Because... Just because!

Vyrn: Careful, Lyria! You're gonna spill the tea!

Lyria: Yikes!

Claudia: If I may...

Claudia: All tidied up. Forgive my intrusion.

Vyrn: What the... It's spotless. You cleaned it up like a ninja!

Lyria: Thanks for the save...

Lyria: Hey, where did my cup go?

Claudia: There is no need for concern. I shall bring you another cup.

Dorothy: And I'll be making some more sweets!

Vyrn: Phew... Those two are more fired up than ever. I appreciate the quality service, but they kinda give me the jitters.

Lyria: Ahahahaha...

Lyria: I'm just glad the two found each other okay.

Vyrn: Huh, what do you mean by that?

Vyrn: Oh, right... You weren't exactly yourself when it all went down that day...

Lyria: Yeah? Tell me about it. My memory of the day is all fuzzy. What happened on that day?

Claudia is a crew member, Dorothy is a crew member

---

The reunion of the fiery and iron fist handmaidens goes back a few days.

The crew had become acquainted with the two on separate occasions and now hoped to help the maids reunite.

(Captain) and Vyrn brought Dorothy, while Lyria brought Claudia, to the central plaza of a remote town.

Go to "Continue 1"

Claudia not in crew, Dorothy not in crew

---

Dorothy and Claudia had set out from their castle in search of their former master who had run away.

They got separated on the way, and the lack of leads to assist their search did not help matters.

But a surprising twist of fate leads them each to joining the crew in their own way.

Dorothy: It must have been destiny.

Dorothy: We just sort of clicked. It was incredible...

Dorothy: I was traveling in search of the runaway lady of the castle...

Dorothy: And I got separated from Claudia, who was searching with me, before I knew it.

Dorothy: But now I know that everything was just leading up to our meeting, Master. I suppose I should be grateful!

Claudia: I've changed my mind. (Captain), would you let me travel with you after all?

Claudia: But don't get the wrong idea. It's not like I have any ulterior motives related to that beautiful young woman or anything like that... Hee-hee...

Claudia: People have been fascinated with beautiful women since ancient times...

Claudia: So my tastes are not at all unusual. You could even call them boring.

And just a few days ago, the crew had thought of having the two come face-to-face with each other.

(Captain) and Vyrn brought Dorothy, while Lyria brought Claudia, to the central plaza of a remote town.

Continue 1

The place is bustling with activity when everyone gathers.

Vyrn: Boy is the place packed! I sure wasn't expecting a festival today...

Vyrn: What do we do, (Captain)? Lyria and Claudia should be here any minute now.

Dorothy: Ooh, look at all the food stalls, Master! Why don't we buy something while we're at it?

Vyrn: Ahaha, looks like curiosity's got the best of you!

Vyrn: Let's check 'em out after meeting with the others!

Dorothy: Okaay!

Dorothy: How should we go about finding them though? It's hard to get around with these crowds...

Vyrn: Well, for starters, you two have known each other since you were kids, right?

Vyrn: Judging from Claudia's personality, where do you think she might be waiting?

Dorothy: Ah, good thinking! Even if they're not in town yet, we'll find them faster if we know where they might show up first!

Dorothy: In times like these, Claudia would...

Dorothy: I know! Any of the nearby cafes is as good a bet as any!

Vyrn: Cafes? Even though we agreed to meeting by the plaza?

Dorothy: Yes, there's a good chance Claudia is waiting at one of them until things cool down out here!

Vyrn: Oh, I hear ya. Let's go check out the nearby cafes then.

Lyria: Phew, I don't see them anywhere...

Claudia: ...

Lyria: I'm so sorry, Claudia. If only I were better at spotting them...

Claudia: Hee-hee.

Lyria: Huh, what's wrong? Are you feeling okay?

Claudia: Eep!

Claudia: Please, forgive me.

Claudia: I was only daydreaming about my tryst with a beautiful young girl, layering my fantasies upon our current situation.

Lyria: Tryst? Um... So you're feeling fine?

Claudia: Fine as can be.

Claudia: As for Dorothy and the others, there is a high possibility that they're waiting by the plaza.

Claudia: As you may already know, she is more of the happy-go-lucky type, so I would not be surprised if she is parading along the streets, browsing each food stall.

Lyria: Haha, you know your friends really well!

Lyria: Let's get to finding them then!

Claudia: Yes, please stay by my side at all times...

Prowler 1: Gahaha... I love the scent of good food. The annual festival's drawin' in huge crowds as usual.

Prowler 2: Yep, drawin' in the scent of money too. 'Bout time we hit the spots where security's lax.

Dorothy: I'm really sorry... I was so sure she'd be in one of these cafes...

Dorothy: Sigh... Where could Claudia be?

Vyrn: The day's not over yet—let's try to think of where else she might be based on her personality!

Dorothy: Master, Vyrn, thanks a bunch!

Dorothy: But if we can't find them at this hour...

Dorothy: Maybe's she's given up and is taking her siesta! An afternoon nap can do wonders to clear the mind!

Vyrn: Great, she's napping... You really think she'd be catching some z's now with Lyria beside her?

Vyrn: Wait a minute, if they're lookin' for us too... Maybe we just missed each other?

Dorothy: Ah, now why didn't I think of that!

Dorothy: Claudia must be running all over the place with Lyria, trying to think of where I might be!

Vyrn: We'll just have to reverse the train of thought... Hoppity-hop—go where you want right now, Dorothy!

Vyrn: We follow your whims, and they'll find us sooner than later!

Dorothy: Great idea! Now let's see...

Dorothy: I want to...

Dorothy: ...

Dorothy: Aha!

Claudia: You wish to know what I would like to do?

Lyria: Mm-hm. Do something that's in character for you, and they might have an easier time finding us.

Claudia: A splendid idea.
Hm...

Claudia: ...

Claudia: Zzz...

Lyria: Um... Claudia?

Claudia: Ah!

Claudia: My apologies. This is usually the hour for my siesta.

Claudia: The task is proving rather difficult. I've repressed my personal desires for so long in order to fulfill my duties as a maid.

Lyria: Well, there's no rush; let's take it slow. I'll help in any way I can!

Claudia: In any way?

Claudia: Are you sure about that? Will you help me in any way possible?

Lyria: Erm, yes... That's what I meant...

Claudia: Thank you. To start with... Hee-hee.

Prowler 1: Not many guards in the northern part of town. Don't ya reckon we've done enough recon already?

Prowler 2: Fair enough—about time we put our plan into action. Let's head back to the hideout and tell everyone else!

Vyrn: Pant... Wheeze...

Vyrn: You can do it, (Captain)! Just a bit longer and we'll make a clean getaway!

Dorothy: Master, Vyrn, there you are!

Vyrn: Crud! She caught up already!

Dorothy: Hey now, wait! Why are you running from me anyway?

Vyrn: Do we have to spell it out for you! You're scaring us with those cuffs and shackles!

Dorothy: Hey, I'm just following my heart. I've always wanted to take care of my master's every need and whim down to a T!

Vyrn: Okay, now you're goin' too far!

Dorothy: I mean... (Captain) is just so smart and so kind that my help isn't really needed.

Dorothy: Nothing that can't be solved with some bondage of course... Teehee.

Vyrn: Uh-oh, not good! She's so gung ho about what she wants that she's lost her grip on reality!

Vyrn: (Captain)! We turn on this next corner and head straight for the docks! We'll have backup on the Gra—

Vyrn: Ack!

Claudia: ...!

Dorothy: Huh? Master, Vyrn!

Dorothy: Oh no, I got so caught up in the heat of the moment... You're not hurt, are you?

Vyrn: W-we'll be fine. Not sure I can say the same for the girl we bump—

Vyrn: Wait... It's you, Claudia!

Claudia: Hm? Oh, glad to have found you, everyone.

Dorothy: Claudia! I'm so happy we've finally met up!

Claudia: Dorothy... It's been a long time. Are you well?

Dorothy: Never been better! We were looking all over for you! Say, where's Lyria?

Claudia: Lyria? She's, um... Maybe over there?

Dorothy: Huh, but that's where we came from.

Claudia: ...

Vyrn: What the!

Vyrn: Why'd Claudia just run away from us?

Dorothy: Uh-oh... Could it be that she's followed her heart as well?

Dorothy: We'd better go after her, Master! Lyria's in trouble!

Claudia: Phew... This should be far enough.

Dorothy: Waaiiit! Hand Lyria back to us!

Claudia: Caught up already, eh?

Claudia: I'm impressed at how much she's grown over such a short period... Still too shortsighted though.

Claudia: Hyaagh!

Dorothy: Wha... Cripes, she destroyed the road here to stop my pursuit... She's gotten stronger, all right.

Claudia: Hehe... Hope you enjoy the gridlock.

Dorothy: Ah, wait!

Dorothy: You leave me no choice...

Dorothy: Didn't want to risk it, but it's time for sterilization!

Claudia: She's setting the whole area around me on fire...

Dorothy: Give it up, Claudia! Teehee, it's only a matter of time before I catch you!

Claudia: Sure, we have less room now for this game of tag, but you'd best keep your expectations in check.

Claudia: Even if we're evenly matched in agility, endurance is my forte. I'll just keep running till the flames dissipate.

Dorothy: Oh, no you won't!

Dorothy: Now, Master!

Vyrn: Huff... Huff...

Vyrn: We've got you now, Claudia!

Claudia: ...!
Hm, very well...

Claudia: Bravo. I'm impressed you planned out the pincer movement so well.

Vyrn: Phew... Please tell me you're not cuckoo anymore and that you'll return Lyria to us.

Claudia: I owe you an apology. I had mistaken fantasy for reality and lost myself. As for Lyria...

Lyria: Who goes there? Is it you, Claudia?

Dorothy: Lyria! Thank goodness, the rest of us are here too!

Lyria: Ohoho. My, my, if it isn't Dorothy. How do you fare?

Vyrn: O-ohoho? Are you off your rocker, Lyria?

Lyria: How gracious of you all to gather here on this fine day. I take it everyone will be attending tonight's ball?

Dorothy: Oh... my... gosh...

Dorothy: She's been educated in the ways of a highfalutin lady!

Vyrn: Say what?

Vyrn: What's that even mean?

Claudia: It's what I've always wanted to do. I long fantasized about personally training Lyria in the well-fashioned manners of an elegant lady.

Dorothy: Sheesh, Claudia... Everthing'll be ok, Master. Just let Lyria rest on it for a night.

Vyrn: You girls nearly knocked me off my rocker...

Vyrn: Let's head back to the airship then. Boy, this meetup was one heck of a doozy.

Prowler 1: What do you punks think you're doin' loiterin' around our hideout!

Prowler 2: You the ones who set the fire and busted up the road here? Damn you for getting in the way of our attack!

Vyrn: Whoa, what's this now about an attack?

Prowler 1: Shut up! Don't think you're gettin' outta this alive!

Prowler 2: Hey, we've got intruders, and we're takin' em out!

Lyria: Oh my, I'm not certain we have enough spots for all these attendees to tonight's ball.

Claudia: Hm... It appears they were waiting for the day of the festival to make off with valuables.

Claudia: But fear not, everyone. Allow me to make up for my earlier transgressions.

Claudia: Dorothy!

Dorothy: On it, Claudia!

Dorothy & Claudia: Checkmaid!

Prowler 1: Urgh!

Prowler 2: Gaaah!

Although the maids had to undergo numerous twists and turns to finally come together...

They successfully reunited and saved the town together.

Lyria: Oh, so that's what happened...

Dorothy: Sorry for the trouble, everyone.

Dorothy: And thanks again for helping Claudia and I meet up! Teehee!

Vyrn: No worries. Maybe now you two can get back to your original goal of finding your former master?

Claudia: Yes. Dorothy and I have put two and two together and pinpointed a location...

Claudia: A place that our former master, Queen Constance, might be!

Lyria: We'll do whatever we can to help!

Dorothy: Thanks a ton, everyone!

Their hearts filled with gratitude, the maids pour all their effort into the daily cleaning and teatime for the crew.

The true search for their runaway master begins shortly after.

Come Home, My Queen

Dorothy enters a bar in hopes of finding info on her queen. Although the crew is surprised to see her come out of the bar fighting wanton thugs, Claudia is even more surprised to see the thugs so unified.

---

With new intel from the maids, the crew sets a course for the likely location of their former master.

But a true shame it is when they land in a town of roughnecks.

Lyria: I've a bad feeling about everyone glaring at us...

Vyrn: Yeah, I don't like it one bit either. Dorothy, Claudia, you watch out too!

Dorothy: Of course!

Dorothy: Hey, over there, Claudia! You see that mommy and kitty cat?

Kitten: ...!

Mother Cat: ...

Claudia: Mommy and kitty? I don't quite see the resemblance... What do you say to feeding them while we observe them?

Lyria: Ahahahaha... You two seem to be okay...

Dorothy: Oh, we're used to this kind of thing. I'm sure Constance is okay too, because she's just like us despite being a crybaby!

Vyrn: That reminds me: you two grew up in some sorta lawless zone, right?

Dorothy: Yep, we called the slums home. So this kind of murky atmosphere really brings us back.

Dorothy: The sign for the bar's come into view! I'll ask around for info on our queen!

Lyria: D-Dorothy!

Lyria: Will you be okay alone?

Claudia: Worry not. We'd likely draw more attention acting as a group anyway.

Claudia: And let us not forget this is merely a den of unorganized, vulgar knaves. I'm sure she'll be fine.

Vyrn: Fair enough. Though I guess you really place your trust in Dorothy, huh?

Claudia: Trust...

Claudia: Hehe... I'm not so sure if my feelings on the matter equate to such an elegant word.

Claudia: Bound by destiny, the two of us are in the same boat.

Lyria: What? You're on a boat?

Claudia: To put it simply, we're bound by fate.

Lyria: I see... That reminds me: how did you two come to know each other?

Claudia: How, you ask?

Lyria: Yeah, I'd like to hear about the where and how of it all—if you don't mind!

Claudia: Hee-hee, you're too kind, Lyria. I apologize in advance if this bores you...

Claudia: I first found her outside an abandoned house in the slums.

Claudia: It wasn't too far from my own home. I noticed a girl close to me in age began to appear there regularly.

Claudia: I did not wish to have my neighborhood depredated by outsiders, so I resolved to shoo her away.

Claudia: But as I approached her in the abandoned house, I found an injured little bird in her hands...

Lyria: So she was looking after a little birdie... And you helped her?

Claudia: No... It had already passed on.

Vyrn: Wha? Then what was Dorothy up to every day?

Claudia: Well...

Dorothy: Tch... You're having way too good of a time for utter trash!

Thug 1: The heck is your problem? Who do you think you are traipsing about like you own the place?

Thug 2: Don't let her get away! She must be after the girl! I'll get the other guys here!

Lyria: Yikes! What's happening with Dorothy?

Vyrn: Whoa, it sure didn't take her long to whip up that mob!

Claudia: How odd for them to share such a strong sense of camaraderie...

Claudia: Perhaps this may be a good chance for my fists to ask their bodies for info on the queen!

Come Home, My Queen: Scene 2

The scuffle with the thugs leaves Claudia separated from the rest of the crew, who retreat to a small cottage to sort out the situation. After hearing an account of how Dorothy and Claudia first met, (Captain) and company suddenly hear Claudia fighting thugs outside and rush out to save her.

---

A scuffle with the wanton thugs leaves Claudia separated from the rest of the crew.

(Captain) and company arrive at a small cottage in town and try to make sense of the situation.

Vyrn: Lemme get this straight... You mentioned your former master's name, and then a fight broke out?

Dorothy: Correct.

Dorothy: Who the heck are you!

Dorothy: Said the customers and waiters.

Lyria: Wow... I wonder what everyone's connection with Constance is...

Dorothy: From the looks of it, I'd say—

Dorothy: Let's just enjoy our break for now. We can ask those men directly later.

Vyrn: Yeah, let's do that. We've gotta meet up with Claudia anyway.

Dorothy: So you two were talking about the past, right? Claudia told me during the battle.

Lyria: Yes... Sorry for prying...

Dorothy: Oh, no worries! But you probably think I'm a weirdo since she stopped at the part about the little birdie.

Dorothy: Don't get me wrong—I definitely noticed that the bird died as I looked after it.

Dorothy: But I didn't want to admit it, despite how commonplace death was in the slums.

Dorothy: I figured it was probably abandoned by its mommy when it fell into a little corner in town.

Dorothy: As a child I guess I kind of saw my own future in the bird. So I continued to watch over it even after the fact.

Vyrn: Must've been tough... How'd that lead to you two meeting up though?

Dorothy: As I played doctor in the run-down house, a voice called out from behind.

Dorothy: Most people would've been creeped out. You know, with me using medicine and bandages for a bird that's passed on.

Dorothy: But Claudia? She just stared at me for a short while before saying...

Dorothy: How adorable...

Vyrn: ...

Dorothy: Sorry if that was all kind of weird, teehee.

Vyrn: Erm, no, how should I put this...

Vyrn: I kinda see what you're getting at. Claudia musta felt the same sort of future you were envisioning.

Vyrn: That's why she tried to cheer you up...

Vyrn: You scored yourself a true pal there!

Dorothy: Hehe, thanks!

Claudia: Humph, think you can take me on? My iron fists shall wipe out the lot of you!

Lyria: Is that Claudia? She seems to be fighting those people!

Lyria: Let's go, (Captain)!

Come Home, My Queen: Scene 3

After fending off the thugs, the crew presses them for the whereabouts of Constance, but their lips remain sealed. However, all becomes clear when Constance herself makes an appearance—the thugs are actually protecting her and perceive the crew to be a threat.

---

After putting the thugs in their place, Claudia confronts them about Constance.

But their lips are tighter than expected.

Claudia: My, just how stubborn can you be?

Thug 1: Humph... Why don't you just go ahead and off us!

Dorothy: Their sense of unity is surprising for a bunch of thugs.

Thug 2: Wh-what's it to you... Everyone's got something they want to protect...

Vyrn: So what now? Doesn't look like we can get 'em to talk.

Lyria: Hm... This one's a—

???: Yikes, it's okay, everyone! There's no need to go so far to protect me...

Dorothy: Hm?

Claudia: Ah...

Thug 1: Don't come any closer, Connie! Get back underground!

???: Oh, I'm so sorry! You're all hurt because of me...

Thug 2: Hehe, nothin' to worry about! We'd gladly gives our lives for you.

Thug 2: We took you for one of those haughty rich folks when we first saw you in town; but then we found out how much of a crybaby you were...

Thug 2: And then when we learned you were on the run, we knew we had to protect you!

Lyria: Huh? Rich folk? On the run?

Dorothy: Yay, it's Queen Constance! I don't think she's noticed us. What should we do, Master (Captain)?

Vyrn: I was about to ask the same thing. Why are we the villains here?

Claudia: Queen Constance often runs away from the castle when her lack of confidence as a ruler overtakes her.

Claudia: Those men were stirred by an intense desire to protect her.

Dorothy: Ah, it's not too different from us then.

Claudia: Her innocence, unreliability, negativity, listlessness, tendency to cry, inability to think things through...

Claudia: Such an existence shines greater than the most valuable of treasures to those who lead a wayward life.

Vyrn: Hm... In any case I'm just glad she's okay. Now why don't we get this mess cleared up with—

Thug 1: Stand up, you ragamuffins! Connie still needs our protection!

Thug 2: Yaaargh! Muster up whatever you've got left in you!

Lyria: Ai-yai-yai, they look ready for another battle!

Vyrn: Geez, what's their deal?

Vyrn: Anyhoo, we'd better keep our guard up, (Captain)!

Come Home, My Queen: Scene 4

The crew pacifies the thugs once more, coming to a peaceful resolution when the relationship between the maids and Constance is made apparent to all. The trio thanks the crew for all their help and return home with the promise of ongoing assistance to (Captain) and company in their future endeavors.

---

After pacifying the thugs, the servants make clear their relationship with Constance, leading to a peaceful resolution.

Now that (Captain) and company take charge of Constance, they agree to deliver her home.

Constance: Oh, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry! It's all my fault that such a big misunderstanding happened...

Vyrn: Hey, don't worry about it. All's well that ends well, right?

Lyria: Yeah, the maids are really happy you're safe too. Right, Dorothy, Claudia?

Dorothy: No way, teehee. Can't you see how angry I am?

Constance: Oh no!

Claudia: You've set a new record this time with the length of your getaway and the lengths we had to go through to retrieve you.

Claudia: To match that, we must set up the most severe form of discipline ever upon our return to the castle.

Constance: No, no, no! Please, I won't run away again!

Constance: Probably...

Vyrn: Sigh, some people just never learn...

Lyria: Ahahahaha...

Lyria: It sure is going to get lonely though. I guess you two will be—

Dorothy: Yes, duty calls, so we'll have to leave the crew.

Dorothy: Thank you sooo much for everything! This whole adventure has been a blast!

Claudia: Indeed, but please rest assured that we will rush to your aid if the need should ever arise.

Claudia: Until you've reached the Island of the Astrals, we will gladly continue to support you.

Vyrn: Glad to hear it! It's been fun, you two!

Lyria: Mm-hm! And it'll continue to be fun!

Dorothy: Well then, Constance. Let's head in for some good ol' teatime.

Constance: Y-you'll do that for me, even though I've been such a terrible queen?

Claudia: A trashy master is still a master to us.

Claudia: You, who wandered into the slums and wept on that day, embody our future.

Dorothy: Mm-hm. That orphan we met in the slums makes for the best master!

Constance: Dorothy... Claudia...

Constance: Thank you! I'm looking forward to the tea!

Having found their true master, the two feel an overwhelming sense of accomplishment.

With their thanks and promise of their continued support, the crew sets a course for the hometown of Constance and the maidens.
