No More Little Skyfarer's Lunches
After a particularly infuriating day of being babied, Charlotta vows never again to eat a Little Skyfarer's Lunch.
(Captain) and the crew are out helping Charlotta tackle a number of missions.
Monster: Roar!
Vyrn: Urgh! These things just won't give up! (Captain), they went that way!
Charlotta: Leave them to me! They won't get away!
Charlotta: Haaa!
Monster: Groan...
Lyria: Let's see, our next mission is to remove a fallen tree...
Oh! That's it over there!
Vyrn: Whoa, this thing's blocking the whole road. Let's hurry and get it outta the way!
Charlotta: I'll lift this end. Would you kindly take that side?
Vyrn: Yeah, no problem! Come on, (Captain)!
Lyria: Wow... This garden is really big!
Charlotta: We had to weed the gardens as part of our cadet training back in the day. I can clear a field better than anyone!
Charlotta: Haaa!
Vyrn: Pretty good, Charlotta! But we'll see if you're really the best!
(Captain) and the crew continue to help Charlotta finish mission after mission.
Local: That must've been very difficult for such a cute little thing.
Charlotta: Grumble...
Merchant: You're a lifesaver! Who woulda thought there'd be so much power in such a small package?
Charlotta: Grr...
Noble: Hahaha. Are you helping out your big brothers and sisters? What a good girl!
Charlotta: Grrrr!
Charlotta: I can't bear this any longer!
Charlotta hooks her glass and swallows the contents in one gulp. One can almost see steam rise from her ears.
Vyrn: Hey, hey... There's no reason to be upset.
Lyria: Um, I don't think anyone meant to hurt your feelings.
Charlotta: Of course they didn't! That's precisely why my case is so helpless!
Charlotta: Everyone sees me as a child! As if I couldn't possibly be anything but!
Enduring the ceaseless patronizing treatment has caused Charlotta to grow indignant.
Charlotta: H-how could they treat the very captain of the Lumiel Order like this!
Days like this call for one thing—
Server: I've got your Little Skyfarer's Lunch right here for ya.
The server places a bright tray in front of Charlotta.
Charlotta: Thank you!
Server: And who had the grilled fish set?
Baotorda: That would be me. Thank you.
Charlotta: Hmm?
Server: And the pasta combo?
Lyria: That's me! Thank you!
Charlotta: Grumble...
Baotorda: Is something the matter?
A sulking Charlotta waits for the waitress to leave the table before explaining herself in a frustrated mumble.
Charlotta: The waitress asked who ordered for all of your meals...
Charlotta: So how come she didn't ask about my Little Skyfarer's Lunch? She just sat it down in front of me!
Vyrn: Well, hey, you ordered it didn'tcha?
Charlotta: Yes, of course I did, but...
Charlotta: How did she know I ordered the Little Skyfarer's Lunch?
Charlotta: There's even two genuine children here—(Captain) and Lyria!
Vyrn: Maybe they call it the Little Skyfarer's Lunch, because it's for, uh, really little kids.
Vyrn: And you gotta admit, you're a lot littler than (Captain) or Lyria.
Lyria: V-Vyrn!
Charlotta: Wha!
Lyria: Charlotta, please don't get upset!
Charlotta: That's it! A little Skyfarer's Lunch is for little skyfarers!
Vyrn: Huh? Isn't that what I said?
Charlotta: I understand now... I finally see why everyone is constantly treating me like a child!
Charlotta: It's because I'm always eating Little Skyfarer's Lunches!
Lyria: I don't think that has anything to do with it...
Charlotta: No! This has to be it! I can't possibly see any other reason why!
Charlotta: As long as I keep eating them...
Hmm... I've made up my mind!
Charlotta: I will abstain from Little Skyfarer's Lunches henceforth!
Vyrn: Seriously? Are you feelin' okay?
Charlotta: My decision is final! I can no longer bear to be treated like a child!
Charlotta: Baotorda, it simply won't do to waste this Little Skyfarer's Lunch.
Charlotta: If it wouldn't be too much trouble, would you do me the courtesy of exchanging your grilled fish set for my Little Skyfarer's Lunch?
Baotorda: I don't mind at all, but are you sure? Just before we arrived you seemed so enthusiastic to get your favorite meal.
Charlotta: I-I'm sure... Considering I'm not a child and all!
Despite Charlotta's refusal, she doesn't take her eyes off of the Little Skyfarer's Lunch.
Vyrn: You don't have to do this, you know? You gotta eat what you wanna eat or yer gonna regret it!
Charlotta: I said I'm fine! My decision to refrain from Little Skyfarer's Lunches is absolute!
Charlotta: After all, I am the captain of the noble Lumiel Order of Holy Knights!
Charlotta: I must carry myself with dignity and be an example for my fellow knights—and that means abiding by my own resolution!
Vyrn: You are serious! Well, just don't go overboard, okay?
Her decision made, (Captain) and the others could say nothing else to crack Charlotta's ironclad determination.
Be that as it may, no one would predict the tribulations that were about to befall Charlotta.
For Might and Height
Charlotta seeks advice from her crewmates on how to grow taller. Bridgette joins her in testing out the procured tips. Cordelia spots the two and cannot help but be boggled.
Under the comforting rays of the afternoon sun, Charlotta is running around the Grandcypher, memo in hand, interviewing each of the crewmembers.
Rackam: Hmm... Can't say I've ever thought about tryin' to grow taller...
Rackam: But if stronger's how you wanna get, you've gotta get enough sleep. I take naps every day, myself.
Charlotta: Ah, of course. Sleep! Absolutely essential.
Rackam: Not sure how much help that was, but that's about all the advice I can give you.
Charlotta: Thank you very much! Your counsel was invaluable!
Katalina: Huh? A way to make yourself taller? Let me think...
Katalina: Oh yes, I've heard that hanging from high places helps.
Charlotta: Hanging from high places?
Katalina: Yes. It might seem somewhat bizarre, but I've heard that it's actually quite effective.
Katalina: Stretches your whole body out like a spring it seems.
Katalina: But I can't say I've heard any of this advice from particularly credible sources...
Katalina: Sorry to say that's about the extent of my knowledge on the subject. Was it at least helpful?
Charlotta: Yes, it was very helpful! I want to try everything that I possibly can!
Charlotta: I've asked everyone for their advice—I believe I've found some very plausible information.
Charlotta: All that's left is to put all of their recommendations into practice.
Charlotta: Up until now I've tried so many things, but I have to bet on the possibility that something will work!
Bridgette: Captain Charlotta, please allow me to join you! If I follow your example, I'm sure even I'll be able to get stronger!
Charlotta: Oh, you'll join me?
Charlotta: Fellow Harvins training together—I feel like we'll both stretch our limits!
Bridgette: I'll do everything in my power to help you reach a new peak!
Charlotta: I heard that jumping one hundred times a day will result in a height increase...
Bridgette: A hundred times? I-I don't think I can handle a hundred times!
Charlotta: One hundred sounds a bit insufficient. I think I'll go for one thousand!
Bridgette: What! A thousand?
Charlotta: There's no time to waste! Get ready. Get set...
Charlotta: One!
Charlotta: Two!
Bridgette: Th-then I'll jump for as long as I can too!
Bridgette: Huff... Huff... One!
Cordelia: ...
Cordelia peers at the training Harvins from a distance.
Cordelia: Hmm... Intriguing. It's impossible to change one's height, and yet they persevere...
Charlotta's attempts to grow taller are impressive and disciplined.
Cordelia, however, is vexed by the pursuit of such a futile objective.
For Might and Height: Scene 2
Cordelia approaches the petite pair of knights—who are currently hanging from a mast—and asks Charlotta the meaning behind these bizarre stunts. Charlotta answers that she acts not only for the respect of the order but for that of her own self.
Charlotta: Next up is suspension training! Are you prepared, Bridgette?
Bridgette: As ready as I'll ever be! L-let's hang!
After securing (Captain)'s permission, Charlotta and Bridgette climb the mast of the Grandcypher and, locking their arms over one of the spars, dangle in the air.
Charlotta: ...
Charlotta: I-I think I can feel my bones stretching!
Bridgette: I see. If this is all the effort it takes, we could do this all day! Genius! It's much easier than jumping!
Charlotta: You can see so much from up here... What a beautiful view.
Charlotta: I wonder if this is how taller people view the world...
Bridgette: Haha. I feel like the world just got a little bit bigger for us!
Transfixed by heights they are rarely able to experience, Charlotta and Bridgette stare out over the landscape.
Cordelia: Bridgette, Captain Charlotta... Much more of this and you're likely to damage your tendons.
Charlotta: Oh, greetings, Cordelia. Be that as it may, when you see the world like this, it really puts you in a trance.
Bridgette: Haha! Dear Cordelia, the wind feels so good up here!
Cordelia: Does it now?
Cordelia approaches the pair of swaying Harvins.
Charlotta: Haha. It lifts my spirits to look down at something.
Charlotta: I'm always the one being looked down on... The world looks so different when you have the taller vantage point...
Charlotta is basking in the scenery when Cordelia opens her mouth to ask a question.
Cordelia: Captain Charlotta, could we talk for a moment?
Charlotta: Of course! What's on your mind?
Cordelia: Perhaps this is a bit impromptu, but you stated you were on a journey to discover a method to increase your height, did you not?
Cordelia: I've heard that you wouldn't return to the order until you reached a state where the other holy knights could look up to you.
Cordelia: So you... you still bear that same conviction, don't you?
Charlotta: Hmm...
After considering Cordelia's words for a moment, Charlotta lifts herself back up on the mast.
Charlotta: It's true that I want to inspire pride in my comrades...
Charlotta: But even disregarding that goal, I can't help but to yearn for a taller body.
Charlotta: I'm a Harvin. The world you taller folk witness is entirely different from the world my people see.
Charlotta: Just imagining the skies through your eyes... It fills me with curiosity...
Charlotta: As much as I want to become a point of pride for the order...
Charlotta: I also want to become proud of myself. That is all.
Cordelia: I see... It's certainly noble to pursue your best self...
From an outside perspective, Charlotta could easily be mistaken as pursuing a meaningless endeavor.
But her true feelings were veiled beneath her actions all along.
Bridgette: Captain Charlotta, even you have things about yourself you want to improve!
Charlotta: Of course I do! Everyone is reaching for the stars, aren't they? I just haven't grown tall enough to touch them yet.
Bridgette: Th-then, I certainly have a star I'm reaching for myself!
Bridgette: I want to become like you, Captain Charlotta! I've admired you for so long!
Charlotta: Haha. Have you now, Bridgette?
Bridgette: I'm still so inexperienced, and I've got a long way to go before I can shine like you do...
Bridgette: But someday I want to become stronger and protect the weak just like you, Captain!
Bridgette: Then it won't be one act of kindness—I'll be able to do a hundred in a day!
Charlotta: That spirit is exactly what makes you a holy knight of a grand caliber! Forever pure, forever righteous!
Cordelia: ...
With Charlotta's call still hanging in the air, suddenly a shadow appears behind Cordelia.
Charlotta: Cordelia, get down at once!
Cordelia: ...!
Monster: Grah...
Bridgette: Ah! Dear Cordelia!
Monster: Grrr!
Charlotta: Where are they all coming from? Bridgette, Cordelia! Ready your weapons! We fight!
Bridgette: Ready!
Cordelia: Understood.
For Might and Height: Scene 3
Cordelia comes to see that Charlotta and Bridgette are just like her. They all share the same wish to grow and be more like who they want to be. Cordelia now finds herself watching over the tiny champions with warmth and encouragement.
Bridgette: What should we try next? I can still handle more!
Cordelia: Haha...
Charlotta: Hm? What is it, Cordelia?
Cordelia: It's nothing really... Just, whenever I see you working so hard for your goals, I can't help but reminisce about my own.
Cordelia: Bridgette, Charlotta... You're such lovely women. Becoming like you would be no trivial matter.
Bridgette: Huh? But, dear Cordelia, you're already so cute! What do we have that you don't?
Cordelia: Haha... Just take a look at me. My appearance certainly helps when I'm out on praetor business. And yet, at the same time, I'm a woman too.
Bridgette: That's right, Cordelia. You're a cute girl who likes bittersweet love poems, fragrant teas, and beautiful flowers, are you not?
Cordelia: Wh-what are you talking about, Bridgette! I-I'm nothing like that!
Charlotta: Oh my! Cordelia, I had no idea you had such elegant taste!
Charlotta: That would make you the most feminine woman of us all, I believe.
Cordelia: Please, if you could kindly forget everything you've just heard...
Why become strong? Or tall?
Why envy someone different from yourself?
The weak desire strength. And the short desire height.
Cordelia ponders over these thoughts, and then realizes that this way of thinking is completely natural.
Cordelia: (I find myself in awe of those with a cute or feminine appearance...)
Cordelia: (But she's not just daydreaming. She's actually attempting to change an absurdity into reality—it's completely outside the realm of reason.)
Cordelia: (I assumed long ago that I couldn't become an exquisite woman like them...)
The praetor recognizes that Charlotta and Bridgette are motivated by the things that they themselves lack.
Although their actions strike her as imprudent, Cordelia resolves to watch over the Harvin duo.
Charlotta: Sleep is important for growth! We'll need to take a nap next!
Bridgette: Right! Dear Cordelia, won't you come nap with us?
Cordelia: W-what! Me?
Charlotta: Of course! We would be honored to nap with you!
Charlotta: Besides, every knight should rest their body surrounded by blissful scenery when they are capable of doing so.
Bridgette: Dear Cordelia, you can sleep here!
Cordelia: H-huh? O-okay...
The girls idle away the rest of the afternoon in sleepy pursuit of new heights.
For Might and Height: Scene 4
Vyrn: All right! Let's get cookin'!
Lyria: I'm ready! (Captain), what should we use?
- (Vegetables)
- (Eggs)
- (Bananas)
- (Prismaprawn)
- (Honey)
Choose: (Vegetables)Lyria: Okay, vegetables it is! We gathered so many, didn't we?
Vyrn: Yeah, but what should we do with 'em?
- Season 'em!
- Platter 'em!
Choose: Season 'em!Lyria: All right! Adding a little flavor should make them easier to eat!
Vyrn: You guys, does this seem like the right amount of salt?
Lyria: Oh, (Captain), it says here we should add something sour—like lemon juice!
Vyrn: How about apples instead? I've got some sourish ones!
Lyria: Are you sure? I know how much you love your apples.
Vyrn: If it's all to make Charlotta feel better, losin' one apple's nothin'!
Lyria: Haha! Let's hope she likes fruit in her salad!
Lyria: Just look at it!
What a healthy grown-up salad!
Vyrn: Hehe! What are we waitin' for? Let's take it to Charlotta!
Choose: Platter 'em!Vyrn: Okay! Let's put these on a plate.
Lyria: Done! What should we do next?
Lyria looks to (Captain)'s face and sees a satisfied grin.
Vyrn: What! Done already? Don't it look a little wild?
Lyria: W-wow, you're really set on this, aren't you, (Captain)?
Vyrn: Well, if (Captain) says this is enough, then it's enough.
Vyrn: But man, this is one savage salad. Let's get it to Charlotta quick!
Choose: (Eggs)Vyrn: Eggs, huh? How we cookin' 'em?
- Fry 'em!
- Boil 'em!
Choose: Fry 'em!Lyria: Okay, frying it is! I'll look up a recipe!
Lyria: This says the secret to fluffy eggs is to beat the eggs as much as you can before cooking!
Vyrn: The pan's heated and ready to go!
All yours, (Captain)!
With a skillful hand, (Captain) pours a couple of beaten eggs onto the skillet.
Lyria: Wow! You've really got the hang of this, (Captain)!
Vyrn: Yeah, you handle that pan like a pro.
Team (Captain) completes the dish without a hitch.
Lyria: What a fluffy omelette! It looks so good!
Vyrn: Come on! Let's take it to Charlotta quick!
Choose: Boil 'em!Lyria: Okay, boiling it is! I'll grab a pot!
(Captain) places eggs in the pot, pours in some water, and then turns on the stove.
Lyria: Now all we have to do is wait.
Vyrn: There's soft- and hard-boiled eggs, right? I like 'em soft myself.
Lyria: I like both types. How about you, (Captain)?
The eggs finish boiling while the trio are talking.
Lyria: Our boiled eggs are finished!
Lyria: Let's put some salt on them for flavor.
Vyrn: Come on! Let's take one to Charlotta quick!
Choose: (Bananas)Vyrn: Bananas, huh? How we cookin' em?
- Deep fry 'em!
- Steam 'em!
Choose: Deep fry 'em!Lyria: Okay, deep frying it is! I'll look up a recipe!
Lyria: But, wow, these bananas smell so sweet...
Vyrn: Hehe. Sounds like you're gonna try to sneak a bite or two, Lyria!
Lyria: I won't, I promise. I don't snack while I cook!
(Captain) cuts the banana into easy-to-eat slices, coats the pieces in batter, and dips them into the oil.
Lyria: Listen to the oil crackle!
Vyrn: Lyria, you look like a grizzly lookin' at salmon! You sure you're not gonna eat any?
Lyria: I-I'm not! But they look so good. Hehe.
Lyria: Aaand finished! Fresh, hot
banana friedough!
Vyrn: Come on! Let's take it to Charlotta quick!
Choose: Steam 'em!Lyria: Steamed bananas? I wonder how this is going to turn out...
(Captain) opens up a cookbook to a page about cooking fruit and shows it to a reluctant Vyrn and Lyria.
Lyria: Oh, it says warming up fruit can give them a new level of sophistication!
Vyrn: But when I think about what a steamed banana would look like, it makes my stomach all crawly...
Lyria: V-Vyrn! This is (Captain)'s idea, and we're a team! Let's just try it!
Team (Captain) gets to work steaming the banana—no matter the result.
Lyria: Umm... We did it! But, uh, it's kind of just a goopy banana.
Vyrn: J-just put it on a plate with some other fruit and let's take it to Charlotta, okay?
Choose: (Prismaprawn)Vyrn: Prismaprawn, huh? How we cookin' it?
- Deep fry it!
- Stew it!
Choose: Deep fry it!Lyria: Okay, deep frying it is! I'll look up a recipe!
Lyria: The way this shrimp sparkles is so pretty.
Vyrn: But its shell is, like, made of diamonds or somethin'... Be careful when you open it, (Captain)!
Knife in hand, (Captain) begins a bitter struggle with the shrimp's durable carapace.
Lyria: You did it, (Captain)! I guess using a sword makes you better with a knife too!
Vyrn: I don't know for sure, but I get the feeling you're comparin' apples 'n' oranges now!
(Captain) batters the freshly exposed prismaprawn meat and plops it into the oil.
Lyria: Oh, look! It's the perfect golden-brown!
Lyria: It's done! Prismaprawn friedough!
Vyrn: Come on! Let's take it to Charlotta quick!
Lyria: It smells so good!
Lyria is tending to the prismaprawn soup. A heavy, fragrant aroma is wafting through the air.
Lyria: Should we have a taste?
Choose: Stew it!Lyria dips a spoon into the pot, scoops up some of the soup, and hands the utensil to (Captain).
After a moment of culinary introspection, (Captain) tells Lyria to let the soup simmer a little longer.
Lyria: Okay! Let's keep stirring so the bottom of the pot doesn't get burned!
Lyria and (Captain) take turns dutifully managing the stirring.
Lyria: All ready! Delicious prismaprawn bisque!
Vyrn: Come on! Let's take it to Charlotta quick!
Choose: (Honey)Vyrn: Royal honey, huh? How we usin' it?
- Reduce it!
- Boil it!
Choose: Reduce it!Lyria: Cayenne peppers chopped and in the saucepan!
Vyrn: And I put in the seasoning and royal honey!
(Captain) turns on the stove and begins to simmer the mixture over low heat.
The bottom of the saucepan comes alive with a soft boil.
Lyria: That smell is so delicious!
Vyrn: They say gravy makes the grub—we can definitely count on this sauce!
After simmering for just a little bit longer, (Captain) takes the pan off of the fire to cool.
Lyria: It's finished!
But I think our special sauce needs a special name. How about Sweet Sacre Blumiel Sauce?
Vyrn: You could put this on fried stuff, green stuff, sweet stuff—on anything!
Let's take it to Charlotta quick!
Choose: Boil it!Lyria: Boiling honey?
Vyrn: Uhh, (Captain)... Do you know what you're suggestin'?
(Captain) winks at Vyrn.
Lyria: Weeell, if it's the captain's orders, let's just give it a try!
Vyrn: Uhh, we can try it if you really want to... I guess.
(Captain) brings some water to a rolling boil and pours the royal honey into the steaming liquid.
Mere moments pass, and the honey seems to have completely dissipated into the water.
Lyria: So, uhh... when you boil honey, it turns out you get pretty much just hot water.
Vyrn: I coulda told you that!
So we made some honeyfied water... What do we do with it?
Lyria: It's too thin to be used as a sauce, so...
Vyrn: I guess honey's good for ya, so why don't we just call it hot honey and add it as a side to our Big Skyfarer's Lunch?

Charlotta: Um... Did you guys understand the challenge?

Charlotta: Chew, chew...
Lyria: Charlotta, how is it?
Charlotta: Right. Um... I know how much trouble you went through, preparing this for me...
Charlotta: However, I would have preferred to try something a little different.
Charlotta: Hmm... Perhaps my hints weren't clear enough.
Charlotta: Well, there's nowhere to go from here but up! I'm looking forward to your next dish!
Team (Captain) resolves to completely satisfy Charlotta with the next dish.
Charlotta's loyalty increased by 50!
