Happy Birthday Cutscenes
# Link Text
1

Happy birthday!
Today's the anniversary of the day you came into this world. Here's to you! Let's celebrate.

2

Today's your birthday? Allow me to offer a word of congratulations.
What have you gained from this past year of skyfaring?
There's no joy greater than to find something that's yours in these grand skies of ours.

3

Happy birthday. Today is a critical juncture in your life.
But the pressures of pushing yourself everyday tends to build up.
You needn't worry so much about that. In my eyes, I can see that you have made great progress.
Just know that I will be at your side to witness your continued growth from here on.

4

Happy birthday.
Did things go as planned for you this year?
It's certainly not easy to accomplish the goals you've set for yourself and continue down the path you believe in.
But don't you think it would be grand to have no regrets when you look back on your life?
That's why I believe it's important to lead a life you can take pride in. While finding time to relax along the way, of course.
I have faith that you are fully capable of such a feat. I wish you a productive year.

5

Why are you surprised by this large cake?
Hehe, don't be silly. It's your birthday!
I specially ordered this cake specifically for today.
The fruit arrangement has a tasty glaze drizzled over it, and you can see the detailed work that went into the icing.
There's no finer cake, if I do say so myself. Hehe, I can't wait to see your face light up when you take a bite.
Oops. But I haven't said the most important thing of all yet.
Happy birthday, (Captain)!
I also went out and got you a present.
I'll give it to you at the party. Just another fun thing to look forward to.

Happy New Year Cutscenes

1

Happy New Year.
Time to write your New Year's resolutions! If you don't get started now, you'll never get around to it.
C'mon, let's get this year started.

2

A new year. Might as well get started working towards our goals this year, too.
What matters most is remaining resolute and determined no matter what happens.
Focus on the future, and growth will come naturally.
With that being said, I hope you'll grant me the honor of observing your progress this year!

3

Hehe. Can you see it, (Captain)?
It may appear like any other sunrise, but the first dawn of the new year has a certain gravity to it.
If you make your resolutions before today's sun, the days that come after are sure to expand your horizons.
And I can't rest on my laurels either. I shall join you in expanding my capacities.
That is all. I look forward to great things from you, (Captain).

4

Happy New Year.
Were you able to keep your resolution for the previous year?
It's no simple feat to hold fast to a single goal throughout the entire year.
Recognizing your own improvement each year is the basis of self-confidence.
That being said, let's go ahead and come up with our new resolutions.
We'll make sure we achieve our goals by this time next year.
There's no limit to how much a person can grow. I look forward to seeing your growth throughout the coming year.

5

Happy New Year! It's always a pleasure to spend the first day of the year with you.
Now, as for my resolution, I want to follow the example you set for others.
I didn't realize it at first, but you've been providing me with so much insight and not the other way around.
You always find ways to move forward, even if it's only one step at a time. Yes, anyone is capable of doing so, but it's never that simple.
It's easy to get caught in trivialities and stop altogether.
That's why I hold your forward-thinking ways in the highest regard.
Okay, you're next. What's your New Year's resolution?

Valentine's Day Cutscenes
# Link Text
1

H-happy Valentine's...
I... might have gotten some chocolates for you...

2

You don't have to spell it out. I know what you're hoping for.
You'd usually expect chocolate on Valentine's, wouldn't you?
But I've been thinking, and I decided this year I'll make a chocolate cake!
You want chocolate, and I want something sweet. Given that, there's only one thing left to do!
To have some cake together! Just wait right there, and I'll have it out in no time at all.

3

Hmm... Chocolates? Yes, I understand.
However, I did not arrange for chocolates this year.
I went out and got you a fruit cake instead!
Hehe. It's a luxurious delicacy from a famous bakery where customers have to line up early in the morning.
I assumed you would be tired of chocolate on a day like this.
In my mind, spending time with you while eating cake and sipping tea is far better than any chocolates can afford.
I've already brought the tea leaves with me. Please wait while I get it brewing shortly.

4

I must admit I've started to look forward to your yearly visits.
Hehe. I suppose you could say I enjoy the challenge of attempting to surpass your wildest expectations.
Go on, try a bite. I have full confidence that it won't disappoint.
This year I came up with the idea of chocolate rice crackers.
I got the inspiration from the rice crackers you once gave me.
The rich sweetness of the chocolate perfectly complements the saltiness of the crackers.
Aren't they just so delicious you can't stop eating them?
Hehe... But you should give in and enjoy yourself at times like these.
The time we spend smiling and laughing together is precious, after all.

5

Thanks for coming, (Captain). That's right, I've prepared chocolates for you without fail.
These are from a specialty shop. They're only sold in limited quantities, and they're fit for royalty.
Which means they're almost never in stock either. Anyway, try one.
Hm? Oh, this? This is a bottle of chocolate wine I purchased for myself.
You say you want to try some?
I'm afraid your age makes that an impossible request.
But don't worry. I'll bring another bottle once you're of drinking age.
Then we can share a toast together. I promise.

White Day Cutscenes

1

Oh? A present for me?
Ah, it's White Day already? Time sure flies. And I assume this is a box of sweets of some kind?
Hehe, I do enjoy a good treat now and again. I'll accept it with pleasure.
Hm? Rice crackers you say? I'd assume they were usually salty rather than sweet but—
Ahh, I see. Sweetened rice crackers sound right up my ally!

2

You went out of your way to prepare a White Day present for me again. I thank you, (Captain).
Those brown sugar rice crackers you gave me were scrumptious!
Thanks to you, I can now add a new thing to my list of favorites. Yes, that deserves a compliment.
Now what morsel have you brought me this year? Haha, my anticipation is palpable.
I cannot wait for you to show me what other undiscovered secrets lie in this world!

3

Hm? That's for me?
Haha. Ah, I remember now. Today is White Day.
Thank you, (Captain). I was on my way to invite you out anyway, so this is perfect timing. Let's go for some tea.
No, on second thought, let's postpone for now. You're probably already swamped for today.
Another chance will surely arise. Come see me when you have the time.
I'm always available to accept an invitation from you.

4

Hehe. Thank you for the gift.
Ever since you gave me those rice crackers, they've become one of my favorite snacks.
I find myself struck with a powerful craving for them sometimes while eating sweet things.
Now, what could your gift be this year?
I-I know what this is!
These are limited edition almond treats from that famous Port Breeze patisserie!
Ngh... How are you always able to discern my tastes so well?
I'm impressed you've already developed a skill for twisting adults around your little finger at such a young age.
I'll continue to hone my own skills so I can present you with something even better next Valentine's Day!

5

Oho... Homemade cookies to repay me for those chocolates I gave you, hm?
You do remember I have a discerning taste when it comes to sweets, right? Not even you can escape my critiques.
All right, let's start with this one. Nom nom...
Hmm... While it doesn't quite stack up to the standard of a top-class bakery...
I doubt there's any patissier in the world who can mimic this warm feeling I get from just the first bite.
This cookie has two layers of sweetness to it: one from sugar and one from the love put into baking it.
Do you mind making me more batches, (Captain)? I can't get enough of this sweetness.

Trick or Treat Cutscenes
# Link Text
1

Trick or treat!
I have no interest in tricks, so you had best hand over the candy!

2

Heh... This sure brings back memories. Lecia had just joined the Fourth Fleet...
Everyone was having a good time celebrating Halloween, and Lecia shows up to tell us not to play any tricks on anyone!
It was the most uncomfortable Halloween ever.
Thankfully, Lecia figured out Halloween the next year, and we all had lots of fun trick or treating together!

3

Heh heh heh... Today the dead and the living dance all night. You know what that means, don't you?
Trick or treat! However, I have no interest in tricks. All I want is sweet, sweet candy!
What? You no longer have any candy reserves?
Fine, guess it can't be helped. Here, take this. It's candy from my own stock.
Of course I would very much like to have as much candy as I can get, but what's more important is ensuring everyone has a fun time tonight.

4

Trick or treat!
So... Which is it going to be?
But I suppose you know me well enough to predict which one I want.
Sweet, sweet treats, of course!
Hehe. This is a pumpkin cookie, right? I'll take that!
Hm, and that must be a snowball cookie! Why, don't mind if I do!
Heh heh. I advise you to surrender before I relieve you of all the treats in your possession!

5

Hey, (Captain). Can I discuss something about Halloween with you?
Everyone in the Fourth Fleet has decided to wear a costume this year.
The thing is, I've never worn a costume before, so I don't know what to go as...
A majority of the Enforcers agree that going as a young witch suits me best.
On the other hand, it's unbecoming of someone my age.
But Halloween is Halloween, so I guess it's fine. What do you think I should be, (Captain)?

Happy Holidays Cutscenes
# Link Text
1

Happy holidays!
Tonight's the big night, so you had better rest up.

2

Sigh, what did I get myself into...
Hm? Oh, it's you. My crew has made a rather... unusual bet.
They're wagering whether or not Santa will come to visit me tonight.
Good grief... How old do they think I am, anyway?

3

Munch, munch...
Hngh! Gulp.
Oh my, who do we have here? I wasn't expecting to run into you.
What business do you have in the kitchen? I'm just making sure none of my comrades are breaking any rules on this holiday...
...
No, I should come clean with you. I don't want to tell you a bad lie.
To have my snack-raiding be exposed by you would be...
You won't say anything about this, right? It'll be our little secret. Hehe.
Well, then! It's time for me to make my patrols like I said I was.
What about you? I think the town's too lively tonight for someone to walk it alone.

4

Holiday pudding?
Or a buche de fete?
Well, I suppose the holidays aren't really the time to be worrying about overeating.
Excuse me, shopkeeper? I'll have one of each.
Oh. Hello, (Captain). Fancy running into you at this patisserie.
I was just selecting a gift for the rest of the crew on the Grandcypher.
I've already finished with my patrol. And it's the holidays, after all.
Hehehe. Let's celebrate with a fancy meal and some delicious sweets!

5

You're looking for cake shop recommendations?
Well, you're certainly asking the right person. Even so, the answer isn't as clear-cut as you might think.
There are a plethora of cake varieties, each with their own individuality.
I could take you to the shop that whips up an out-of-this-world cream that everyone agrees is delicious...
Or there's another shop that specializes in fruit-based cakes...
Ergh, but how can you say no to a good tart, or a brownie, or a cheesecake? Hmm...
Okay! It's time to take action instead of wallowing in indecision. Are you free right now?
I suggest we visit every shop on my recommendation list and sample their offerings.

A Day in the Deputy's Life

Just as Monika finishes her morning's work and is preparing for a tea break, she receives a report of robed figure activity on Sephira Island. She rushes to the scene and pledges to aid (Captain) and the crew in their investigation if necessary. Her duties don't end there, but a considerate subordinate helps her relax at last with tea and sweets.



The sun rises on the Fourth Fleet Headquarters of the Crew of Enforcers, located on Amalthea Island.
Monika: ...
Monika Weisswind, deputy of the Fourth Fleet, sits in her office, hard at work.
The silence of the dawn is broken by the sounds of rustling documents and Monika's quill pen scratching across the pages.
The deputy's mornings start early.
She acts as the captain's official representative during her superior's absence, but her duties don't stop there.
Monika also supervises the development of the island, as well as the management of the institutions and facilities under the crew's jurisdiction.
Furthermore, she oversees the entire Fourth Fleet while at the same time coordinating with other garrisons in various regions.
She makes a habit of arriving at her office well before the workday begins in order to ensure she has time to focus on her own work before inevitably getting tied up in the afternoon.
Monika finally reaches a stopping point and glances at a clock on the desk.
Monika: When did it get so late?
As she puts down her pen and begins stacking her documents, she hears a knock on the door.
Monika: Mhm.
Enforcer 1: Pardon the intrusion, Deputy. I need to speak with you about the development of a certain piece of property in the seventh ward.
Monika: I presume you're referring to the new restaurant planned for the area—I believe it was a bar? Is there some issue with the progress?
Enforcer 1: It seems there's a preexisting building that could be reappropriated for use, complete with all its furnishings.
Enforcer 1: We've received a request from the developers to use the building as is, since it would be expected to cut down on expenses and man-hours.
Monika: I see. Do you have the documentation?
Enforcer 1: Yes ma'am. Here it is.
Monika scans the documents.
Monika: So the property in question was previously an inn? Do they plan to use the second floor as well?
Enforcer 1: Yes, they do. The kitchen is located on the first floor.
Monika: I see...
Monika: But taking into account the equipment, plumbing, and storage for utensils and whatnot, I'm not sure this kitchen will suffice...
Monika: Especially if they plan to use the second floor as another part of the business.
Monika: There's a possibility it could end up leading to an increase in capital investment expenditures rather than a decrease in man-hours.
Monika: For now, calculate the estimates and compare them.
Enforcer 1: Very well.
The moment the enforcer steps out of the room, another one enters to take his place.
Enforcer 2: Deputy. It's about the prisoner being transferred out of Unit Two.
Enforcer 2: We've received the medical certificate and application from the examining physician, and they need your approval.
Monika: Ah, the one we weren't aware had a chronic illness prior to confinement?
After confirming the contents of the documents, Monika signs them and hands them back to the enforcer.
Monika: Unit One does indeed seem to have more satisfactory sanitation facilities. Splendid work.
Enforcer 2: Thank you, Deputy.
The enforcers continue to arrive one after another, each with his or her own matter of business to attend to.
With a firm understanding of the state of progress for each individual affair, Monika is able to give them precise instructions.
And, in what seems like no time at all, it's already afternoon.
Monika: Sigh.
Monika lets out a small sigh as she glances around the now-empty office, having finished providing feedback to her subordinates.
Monika: (I could use some tea...)
Monika: Oh, that's right. I bought some rose tea the other day. Now, where did I put it...
Monika enjoys taking tea breaks throughout the day as she works.
She can't live without her china tea set and her sweet fruit and herbal flavored teas.
As she pours the tea and hot water into a warm pot, a pleasant scent begins to permeate the air.
Monika: Mm. Refreshing and sweet—a delightful fragrance.
Once the tea has been steeped to perfection, she pours a serving into her teacup.
At that very moment, another enforcer enters the office.
Enforcer 3: Deputy. We've received an eyewitness report of a number of robed figures on Sephira Island.
Monika: What? In what area?
Enforcer 3: According to the survey team's report, they were in Point Aquila.
部下の報告によると、黒葉沼に、

小型の騎空艇が離着陸したような

痕跡が見つかったとのこと。
Monika: Blackleaf Bog? They certainly chose an inconvenient location.
Monika: Hm, I see... I suppose it's safe to assume they've caught wind of our survey team's movements.
Monika: I imagine (Captain)'s crew is in the area as well?
Enforcer 3: Yes. So it would seem.
Monika: Then we ought to join them. Inform the acting captain, and prepare the Grandzweiss for departure.
Enforcer 3: Yes ma'am!
Monika: ...
The Grandzweiss makes its way toward Sephira Island, an area under the jurisdiction of the Menean Empire.
Sephira Island is an island covered by enormous mountain ranges that was home to three great nations prior to the War.
As the site of the War's fiercest battle, access to its inland areas is heavily restricted.
The Crew of Enforcers cooperates with the Menean Empire's survey team to carry out its investigation of Sephira Island.
And Monika acts as the Crew of Enforcer's representative.
Lecia: Those robed figures... I wonder what their goal could be.
Monika: Well, at the very least, it's clear they have a specific objective in mind.
Monika: They seem to be familiar with the island, so unmasking them will be no simple matter...
Monika: We've been in a deadlock for quite some time, but now we've received another eyewitness report.
Monika: I have hopes we'll come across some sort of new lead.
Lecia: Yes.
Monika: I'm pleased to see you all safe and sound.
Vyrn: Oh! Monika and Lecia are here!
Monika: When we heard there had been another sighting of robed figures on the island, we flew here as fast as we could.
Monika: So what's the situation?
Vyrn: We found a spot where it looks like an airship landed. It's over this way.
Lecia: These markings...
Monika: I think we can determine the model of airship from the impressions it left. Let's pass the information along to the lab at headquarters.
Monika: Make note of the details at once.
Enforcer 3: Yes ma'am.
Vyrn: By the time we spotted the ship and got ready to go after it, it'd already flown off someplace.
Vyrn: We still don't know anything about that new-world dude or those robed guys...
Monika: This isn't something that can be resolved overnight. We're prepared for it to take time.
Monika: I don't suppose you happened across anything else out of the ordinary?
Monika: Please tell us everything you know, even if it might seem trivial.
(Captain) and the crew tell them about all the terrain they've covered and the monsters they've encountered during their investigation.
Lecia: It's hard to believe the monsters have become even more ferocious...
Monika: We've entrusted the entire investigation to you up to this point, but I have a feeling things are going to become increasingly difficult.
Monika: If there's anything you need, please don't hesitate to ask. The Crew of Enforcers will spare no effort to assist you.
Monika: Furthermore, I myself would be more than willing to accompany you on your investigation, should my assistance be necessary.
Vyrn: Whoa! You sure? I heard you were swamped with work back at headquarters though.
Monika: No need to worry. It won't interfere with my office work.
Monika: Besides, if I'm sitting behind a desk all day, I'll lose my touch with a sword.
Monika: I'll do whatever it takes to fulfill my roles as both the deputy of the Fourth Fleet and head of the survey team.
Vyrn: Really? Well, we know we can count on you!
After promising to cooperate with (Captain)'s crew, Monika and Lecia make their way back to the Fourth Fleet Headquarters.
Monika: File an investigative report including data about the markings we discovered, as well as all the information we received from (Captain)'s crew.
Enforcer 3: Very well.
Enforcer 2: Deputy! I see you've returned.
Monika: Yes. Have there been any developments?
Enforcer 2: Yes. Actually, just earlier...
The moment Monika returns to headquarters, she finds herself busy handling various issues from her subordinates, without a minute to catch her breath.
After tending to a number of important matters, Monika finally returns to her office.
Upon entering the room, she spots the tea set still sitting on her desk.
Monika: I never had a chance to drink it...
Monika empties the contents of the teapot and teacup and begins heating up a fresh pot of water.
Monika: (I'm fighting a losing battle here. I need something sweet, or I won't be able to focus.)
Monika: (That reminds me... I believe I had some sweets around here somewhere...)
While the teacup and teapot are heating up, Monika eagerly rummages through her desk, intent on satisfying her sweet tooth.
Enforcer 3: Deputy. I have the investigative report you requested—
Monika: Erm...
Enforcer 3: Is this a bad time?
The enforcer watches with a bewildered expression on her face as Monika climbs out from under the desk.
Monika: Ahem... N-not at all.
Monika: Is that the report? Let me see it.
Enforcer 3: Y-yes. Here you are.
Monika: Hm.
Monika reads through the documentation, all the while trying to ignore her craving.
Monika: Very good. When we receive the results from the lab, make sure to include them as well.
Enforcer 3: Yes ma'am. Understood.
Following her reply, the enforcer presents Monika with a cookie.
Monika: Hm? A cookie?
Enforcer 3: I imagine it's not on par with the sweets you were searching for, but please help yourself.
Monika: Wh—
Monika: Heh. It seems I've been found out.
Enforcer 3: I noticed your tea set was being heated up, so it was reasonable conjecture to assume that you were preparing to take a break.
Monika: I see. An impressive deduction.
Enforcer 3: It looks like your tea is all warmed up again, so why don't you have them together?
Monika: Oh, how thoughtful.
Monika: Well, things here seem to have quieted down, so I believe I'll take you up on that offer.
Monika: Come, why don't you join me? Have a seat.
Enforcer 3: Thank you. I'd be honored.
Monika takes a bite of her cookie, followed by a sip of tea.
Monika: Mm... Delicious! They go together perfectly!
Monika: And the texture! The perfect balance of soft and chewy!
Enforcer 3: I'm delighted you like it.
Overflowing with gratitude for her considerate subordinate, Monika heaves a sigh of relief.
Monika: Whew.
Monika: (Give me something sweet, and suddenly I'm in a good mood. Talk about fickle.)
Monika: Hehehe.
Though her days are hectic, she is still able to find brief moments to recharge by indulging in her beloved sweets.

Monika's Daily Grind

Strolling through town after work, Monika runs into Eugen and joins him for drinks. The two prove to be surprisingly good drinking companions, and each ends the night in a better mood than they began.



Monika: Thank you for your diligent work today. Now head home and get some rest.
Enforcer 1: Yes ma'am. Please excuse me.
Monika: Of course. Good night.
After seeing to it that her subordinate departs safely, Monika gathers her things and prepares to leave.
Monika: That didn't take as long as I expected.
Monika: I think I'll check out the fourth ward today.
Monika: (This area has quite the nightlife, it seems.)
Shopkeep: Why, hello, Monika!
Monika: Good evening, shopkeep.
Monika: Your sake here the other day was delicious. I'm happy to see that your business seems to be thriving as usual.
Shopkeep: Why yes, thank you. Are you on duty again tonight?
Monika: Actually, I'm searching for a place to have dinner.
Monika makes it a routine to stroll through the wards when she has time to ensure everything is as it should be.
Shopkeep: I see. Make sure to drop by again sometime, okay? I'll throw in a little something extra for you!
Monika: Hehe. I'll be back again soon.
Monika continues to survey the town as she searches. Suddenly she runs into a familiar face.
Eugen: Huh?
Eugen: Oh, why if it ain't the deputy of the Fourth Fleet herself!
Monika: Hm?
Eugen: Yo!
Monika: Oh, Eugen! What a coincidence running into you here.
Monika: Now that I think of it, I do recall seeing a docking request for the Grandcypher. Did you have a mission here on the island?
Eugen: Yep. We finished up and didn't have anythin' important to do, so we thought we'd take it easy here tonight.
Monika: Are you by yourself at the moment?
Eugen: Yep! Couldn't sleep, so I thought I'd grab a quick drink.
Eugen: Care to join me? No pressure.
Still surprised by their unexpected meeting, Monika decides to accept his offer.
Monika: I'll take you up on that invitation.
Eugen: Great! That's what I like to hear!
Monika: One white wine, please. A sweet one, if you have it.
Eugen: I'll have another one o' these!
Monika: Are you sure? It appears you've already had quite a lot to drink...
Eugen: Now don't go cuttin' me off already, missy. Sometimes ol' farts like me just want to put away some good liquor.
Monika: Hehe, I see. My apologies.
And so Monika and Eugen begin their private drinking party.
Eugen: I still find it hard to believe that a young lady like you is deputy captain of a fleet of the Crew of Enforcers.
Eugen: I thought you were just a kid, but you're skilled with a blade and can hold your liquor to boot. That crew o' yours is lucky to have you.
Monika: Heh. It seems my short stature has invited quite a misunderstanding.
Eugen: Huh?
Monika: Alas, I'm no longer at the age where I could be called a young lady.
Monika: But I'll take it as a compliment.
Eugen: Oh?
Eugen: Er, well, sorry 'bout that.
Eugen: I wasn't sayin' it to tease you... Hope I didn't offend you.
Realizing his blunder, Eugen lowers his head in apology.
Monika: Not at all. I've hardly accorded you the respect your venerable age merits, so I'd say we're even.
Eugen: Haha. You got me beat.
The two exchange playful banter as they enjoy their drinks.
At some point, the conversation turns to (Captain).
Monika: Not to harp on the subject, but the captain of your crew is quite young, correct?
Monika: And that crew consists of people of all ages... as well as some who aren't even mortal.
Monika: I suppose (Captain) is a fine example of the fact that you can't judge a person based on their age or gender.
Eugen: Ain't it the truth.
Eugen: Well, I still ain't sure what an ol' fart like me can do for someone like (Captain).
Eugen: But I'd like to be around whenever the captain stands at one o' life's crossroads.
Eugen: Life's made up of a series of choices. And goodness knows it's hard to tell right from wrong sometimes...
Eugen: Once (Captain)'s decided on a path, I want to be there to make sure the captain can travel it safely.
Eugen: I've got a bit more life experience than (Captain) and the others, so that gives me the right to meddle some, yeah?
Monika: Hm... I suppose.
Monika being the good listener that she is, Eugen finds himself opening up and talking the night away as he knocks back his drinks.
Eugen: Hah hah! Sorry to make you listen to the drunken ramblings of an old man.
Monika: Not at all. Your words carry a lot of weight. I learned a valuable lesson tonight.
Monika: As long as (Captain) has a reliable elder such as yourself to provide guidance, it seems your crew has nothing to worry about.
Eugen: Haha! I hope you're right!
Eugen: Sorry for keepin' you out so late. Thanks for joinin' me.
Monika: No, if anything I should be the one thanking you. I appreciate you spending the evening with me.
And thus the impromptu drinking party comes to an end on a pleasant note.

Monika's Daily Grind: Scene 2

As the Grandcypher flies Monika back to Amalthea after a day of exploration on Sephira Island, Ladiva invites Monika to a get-together along with Lady Grey and Ilsa. The four hardworking women have a leisurely conversation about relaxation and marriage as they enjoy their desserts.



At (Captain)'s request, Monika has made her way to Sephira Island to assist with the investigation there.
On their way back to Amalthea Island afterward, Monika has an unexpected visitor.
Ladiva: Oh, Monika! There you are. I've been looking all over for you!
Monika: Hello, Ladiva. What's wrong? Did something happen?
Ladiva: Hehe. We were all about to have some fun. Would you like to join us?
Monika: Have some fun?
Ladiva cheerfully leads Monika to a room on the ship and opens the door.
Ladiva: Look who I brought! It's Monika! Come on in.
Lady Grey: Why, hello there.
Ilsa: Hey, Monika.
Monika: What brings you all together?
Ladiva: Isn't it obvious?
Ladiva: We're having some girl talk!
Ladiva: Grey brought mushrooms, so we were just thinking about baking some muffins and making a tea party out of it.
Ladiva: And then Ilsa brought us some lovely sweets!
Ilsa: I bought some cream puffs on an island where I stopped earlier. I thought we could all enjoy them together.
Lady Grey: Hehe. And Ladiva's mushroom muffins are second to none!
Ladiva: Oh, you flatter me! But the only reason they turned out so well is because of the mushrooms you cultivate with such loving care.
Lady Grey: Oh my. Hehe. I'm delighted to hear it.
Ladiva: Ilsa, Monika... We don't get to see you two very often, so we were pleased to hear you were on board.
Ladiva: We thought it would be a perfect chance to spend some quality time together, so we thought we'd at least extend the invitation.
Ladiva: Even though we have the opportunity to work together on occasion, we don't often get to chat like this, you know?
Monika: That's true.
Monika: In that case, I have no reason to turn down your kind invitation. I'd be delighted to join you.
Ilsa: I don't often get to hang out with women my own age. Let's make the most of it.
Ladiva: Well said, Ilsa! Let's have a nice chat while we munch on some delicious snacks!
Lady Grey: Hehe...
Lady Grey: Delicious...
Ilsa: The secret of these cream puffs is in the dough.
Ilsa: The island's local vegetables are kneaded right into it. They call them veggie sweets.
Monika: These mushroom muffins are quite delectable as well.
Monika: The combination sounded a bit wild, so I had my doubts at first...
Monika: But there's no question that they're delicious. Hats off to Ladiva, our master chef!
Ladiva: Oh my, thank you! I'm so glad you like them.
Monika: I never would have dreamed up the ideas for mushroom muffins and vegetable cream puffs.
Ladiva: Hehe. We all find ourselves craving something sweet from time to time.
Ladiva: A skyfarer's got to manage her physique, but sometimes you just can't hold back.
Ladiva: It's at times like those that veggie sweets are your best friend!
Ilsa: Yes. If I didn't indulge in comfort food every so often, I think I'd blow a fuse.
Ilsa: I can't live without it.
Monika: I use sweets to blow off steam as well.
Monika: I'm utterly useless without them.
Ilsa: Oh, it sounds like you and I have a lot in common.
Ladiva: What about you, Grey? Do you have anything that helps you relax?
Lady Grey: Yes, of course.
Ladiva: May I ask what that might be?
Lady Grey: I enjoy long walks in the depths of dark, misty forests where the sunlight doesn't reach.
Lady Grey: Sometimes when I'm surrounded by the dense fog and darkness, I slowly close my eyes...
Lady Grey: When I do that, it feels as though I am able to commune with my husband and son.
Ladiva: That must be... love!
Ladiva: When I'm feeling overwhelmed, I like to think of my teacher at the orphanage or my late mother and father.
Ladiva: Familial love is a wonderful form of moral support.
Lady Grey: Indeed.
Lady Grey: As long as I have my beloved husband and son by my side, I know I can overcome anything that comes my way.
Ilsa: Family, huh...
Monika: Hm? What's wrong, Ilsa?
Ilsa: Well, I'm just a bit jealous. I want one of my own.
Lady Grey: Hehe. Families are wonderful.
Ilsa: Maybe I should start seriously looking for a husband. I'd love to have someone to come home to.
Lady Grey: Hehe...
Ilsa: Just out of curiosity...
Ilsa: Do you have any desire to get married, Monika?
Monika: Hm? Well...
Monika: I used to, but not as much anymore.
Lady Grey: Oh, is that so? Could I ask why?
Monika: Right now I'm content with my work and private endeavors.
Monika: I'm quite comfortable with my current situation, and I'm in no hurry for it to change.
Monika: Perhaps someday I'll want to get married, but as of now I'm not even considering it.
Ilsa: I see. Personally, if the opportunity presented itself to me, I don't think I'd hesitate to say yes.
Ladiva: Hehe. Love and happiness take a different form for each and every person.
Monika: Aye. As for me, this is all I really need.
Monika helps herself to another cream puff.
Monika: Munch.
Monika: Mm. Delicious.
Ladiva: Love comes in all shapes and sizes... The world is simply overflowing with love!
The girl talk continues all the way until they reach Amalthea Island.

Monika's Daily Grind: Scene 3

One evening Monika receives a surprise visit from a tipsy Lecia and her subordinate. Lecia has brought Monika's favorite drink and plenty of sweets, and the three stay up late into the night enjoying themselves.



Monika: Sip...
Monika: Ahhh...
One evening, Monika gazes out the window at the night sky above, a glass of her favorite sweet sake in her hand.
Monika: It certainly would be helpful if that furnished building could be used...
Monika: The seventh ward is near a residential district, so it makes sense that there would be a number of inns in the area.
Monika: And it's not like we really have the budget set aside for a large-scale renovation... It's quite a complicated issue.
Monika: That reminds me... Something needs to be done to improve that other prison's sanitation facilities...
Monika: Hm. Sip...
From a managerial standpoint, Monika is doing her utmost to create an environment in which her subordinates can concentrate on their work.
She has turned the evening into a personal review session as she mulls over work matters.
Monika: But wow...
Monika: Those cream puffs Ilsa brought sure were delicious...
Monika: And Ladiva's muffins simply melted in my mouth...
Monika: ...
Monika: Ngh... Darn.
Monika: Just remembering them has given me a craving for something sweet!
Monika: Actually, I bought some cookies the other day when I visited Port Breeze...
Monika: But I really shouldn't eat them so late...
Monika: ...
Monika: Everyone needs to blow off steam.
Monika's appetite wins out, and she reaches for a cookie.
But at that moment, she hears a knock on the door.
Monika: Hm. Who could it be at this time of night?
Monika looks through the peephole and gasps, then throws open the door.
Lecia: Hello, Monika!
Monika: Lecia!
Enforcer 3: Good evening.
Monika: What in the skies are you two doing here at this hour?
Lecia: I brought you presents! Have a look. Hehe!
Monika: Well, you certainly seem to be in a good mood. What has you in such high spirits?
Lecia: What do you say we all have a drink together?
Monika: I'm off duty tomorrow, but don't the two of you have work?
Lecia: A little sip won't hurt anything. Sometimes you just have to let loose!
Monika: I can't believe I just heard that come out of your mouth!
Monika: Heh. Could it be you've already started drinking?
Enforcer 3: Correct. Our acting commander here had a drink and perked right up.
Enforcer 3: She suddenly said she wanted to come see you.
Enforcer 3: She's quite the lightweight though. I don't think she even finished that first drink.
Lecia: Sh-she doesn't need to know that!
Enforcer 3: Hehe. My apologies.
Monika: Heh. I see...
Monika: Well, I think that's enough standing around. Do come in.
Lecia: Yay! Thanks for having us!
Lecia: Heh heh. No sleep for you tonight, Monika!
Lecia grins, her arms full of Monika's favorite sake and a massive amount of sweets.
Monika: Hm.
Monika: It seems it would indeed be a waste to fall asleep.
Monika's face softens into a smile despite the lateness of the hour and her surprise visitors.
Their cheerful laughter echoes long into the night.
Monika's busy days continue, but she is fortunate to be blessed with good friends and good food to carry her through.

In Battle

Monika is a cross between a support and Physical damage offensive character. Her main uses are for her Physical Attack Up, Magic Attack Up, and Attack Speed Up buffs at the start of battle as well as her stun. Although she doesn’t output a lot of damage due to having an AoE Union Burst, she allows your team to deal massive damage at the start of each battle. This makes her one of the strongest characters and a staple of most teams.
