Scenario:A Peace of the Pie - Chapter 5: Mixed Feelings - Episode 1

With news of Souval consent in hand, Lily makes for the Ice Crystal Palace while the crew heads for Torwa.

Having left Wolfire Land, the party reaches the Central Plains.

With imminent war avoided and the prospect of peace talks a genuine possibility, the mood is one of relief.

Lyria: No sign of war beasts around here.

Vyrn: That Grueler guy's got great leadership, huh? One snap of his fingers and he can pull his troops out completely.

Lyria: It's great that we put a stop to the war for now.

Vyrn: I can't see the Crystalia having a problem with his demands, so it's just gonna come down to persuading everyone in the city.

Vyrn: I say we split up now. We'll go talk to people in Torwa, and you can head back to the Ice Crystal Palace, Lily, and see if...

Lily: ...

Vyrn: Lily? What's wrong? Are you tired?

Lily: Oh, no. It's just I had this strange dream before. But I can't remember a thing about it now.

Vyrn: Haha, why doesn't that surprise me? I guess your head's in the clouds again. Okay, well, onwards and upwards?

Lily: Yes, we have to make this work! Okay, I'll go back to the palace then. See you later!

Lyria: ...

Vyrn: Okay, guys, let's head over to—

Lyria: Lily?

Lily: Yikes!

Lily wheels around with a strange expression on her face. Lyria gives her a hug.

Lily: Lyria, I...

Lyria: It's okay. I know. You've been really brave, but you can relax now.

Lily: Huh?

Lyria: I know all this has been really hard for you. I know how scared you've been.

Lyria: I'm sorry. I should have said something before, but I was worried about it interfering with your mission.

Lyria: Don't worry though. We'll handle the rest. You can just go relax back at the palace, okay?

Lily: ...

Lily: I... I...

Lily: Waaah! I was so scared! I just wanted to run away and hide!

Lily: Those people in Torwa were so scary, and, and the Souval wouldn't listen to me, and... Oh, that awful dream I had!

Lily: The whole mission's been a nightmare!

Lyria: I know, Lily... I know.

Tears stream down Lily's face while Lyria tries to comfort her.

Lily herself hadn't realized the pressure she was under, but now it's like a great weight has been lifted.

Lily: Okay, I'll get going now. Bye!

Lyria: Stay safe!

Vyrn: Sorry, Lyria. I had no idea what she was going through.

Vyrn: I guess I figured the mission was always gonna be tough and she'd just cope. But I forgot she's just a kid.

Lyria: Don't feel bad. She wanted to show everyone how grown up she was, I guess.

Vyrn: Tsk, what a doofus I've been. Man, next time I see her, I'm just gonna play some games with her or something.

Lyria: Teehee... Anyway we should get going. We've got a message to deliver to the people of Torwa, right?
