Happy Birthday Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Happy birthday, (Captain). This cake? I baked it just for this occasion. Let's share it with everyone. Would you stop telling me to watch my step? I'm not that clumsy, you know. Wah! Why's it so slippery? Who put this rope here? Hah! It'll take more than that to bring me down! Ack! Now what? Is that a banana peel? I don't care what gets in my way. I'm not dropping this cake! Not to worry, (Captain)... I've protected this cake with my life! We're going to have the best party ever tonight!
2	✔	(Captain), happy birthday! As for your present... I apologize... I didn't have time to get anything ready. What? I don't have to worry? Of course I do! I owe you so much... The least I can do is get you a birthday present... I couldn't call myself a knight... I wouldn't be a good person if I didn't get you something! But all I can do now is... Wait... Is there something I can do for you now? Just for today, I'll do anything you ask of me. That will be my present to you! Just tell me what you want, (Captain)!
3	✔	(Captain), happy birthday. These are for you. I picked them out myself. I got you two things this year since last year I didn't get to give you anything. So basically this year you get double the trouble. Just so you know how much I appreciate you of course. What's inside? These are talismans from the motherland. They're blessed with protection magic to keep you safe from grave danger. It's true you know! I have some just like these on me at all times. That's what makes me so durable. Putting these on will make you as tough to take down as I am!
4	✔	Happy birthday, (Captain). This is from me. Go on, take it. What's inside, you ask? A collection of books, handpicked by me. Unfortunately, I haven't a clue as to what sort of books you usually read... Therefore, I've included books of all genres. Hm? What kind of books do I like? Isn't that obvious? Books about the eternal battle between good and evil! And, in the end, justice must always prevail! I've included a few books on that theme in the bundle. I really hope you like them, (Captain)...
5	✔	(Captain)! Happy birthday! I've got a special present lined up just for you, (Captain)! This time around, it's... A replica cannonlance! Check out how weighty it is! Though keep in mind it's a replica in appearance only. You can't actually fire it. But if you use it as a dumbbell, you might even become as strong as me! Assuming you've read up on the books about vanquishing evil that I gave you last year, you're only a stone's throw away from becoming invincible, (Captain)! All righty, time to start training! I'll show you how it works! The knights in the order would cry tears of joy at the chance to be trained by me! You're gonna love it, (Captain)!

Happy New Year Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Happy New Year, (Captain). This one's going to be as good as the last. Okay, next on the list is... Hm? Oh, I'm making sure I wish everyone a happy New Year today. Just one of my duties.
2	✔	(Captain), happy New Year! Do you want to go out for a walk? Decisions made on New Year's Day are the keys to a successful year, right? Just don't mention the Zeyen today, got it?
3	✔	(Captain), happy New Year. Looking forward to more time with you. Gah... This morning we're having ozoni? It's not that I hate it... But I can only recall stained memories... I... Long ago, I got mochi stuck in my throat... After that I just couldn't stomach it... But put your fears at ease. That won't happen again. I will chew properly. So stop looking at me with those eyes. Very well. I will try it. This mochi really stretches... Nom, nom... And the taste is quite good... Thank you. That was pretty tasty. Gah... Why those eyes? Choose: I'm glad you didn't choke. Humph. I too have grown. I don't make the same mistake twice!
4	✔	Hah! Hunh! Yah! Oh, it's you, (Captain). Happy New Year. What am I doing? Please, it's obvious. Pounding mochi! It's said that if you eat mochi on New Year's Day, you'll live long and well. And that's why I'm making mochi, but, um... It's a bit hard on my own. Well, no. Actually, some of the crew were helping out just now. But our timing wasn't the best, so I might have... With the mallet... N-no, you're wrong. I am not clumsy! Our timing was off—that's all! R-really! S-stop looking at me like that! Ugh. J-just finish me off! I'd rather die than be looked at like that!
5	✔	(Captain)! Happy New Year! I seem to be in good spirits? Hehe, that's because I finally got the hang of beating mochi! I learned there's a pair of special bracers for doing it, you see. Thanks to everyone helping me put them on, I was able to use the mallet without any issues! The resulting mochi is insanely soft! You should try some! This way! The flavor will knock you off your feet, promise! Whoa! Sorry, (Captain). Thanks for the save. Looks like I was almost the one off my feet instead...

Valentine's Day Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Can you spare a moment for me, (Captain)? Thing is, I made some chocolate. Would you like some? Since it's Valentine's Day, I wanted to give chocolate to the people who have looked out for me. And you fit the bill perfectly. This is my first time making chocolate though. It wasn't easy. I can't tell you how many times I messed up. Don't worry. Vyrn and my subordinates made sure the failures didn't go to waste. They assured me they tasted fine, so you can eat with confidence.
2	✔	Hi, (Captain). I made chocolate for you again. Please take it. I've turned a new leaf and this year my chocolates are amazing! I had to go through a lot of trial and error to make these. Hmm? The errors? It goes without saying, I made Vyrn and my subordinates eat them all. My errors couldn't go to waste. Everyone was so moved by my chocolates that they were all in tears saying, "We couldn't possibly eat any more!" I assure you, these treats are to die for.
3	✔	(Captain), I made chocolate this year too. Here you go. What? Why do I look worried? Well... This year no one would taste-test the chocolate I made... They said I made them eat too much last year... So I didn't get a chance to make many batches... I can vouch for it though. I tried it. But it's nothing like last year's... I'm sorry... This was supposed to be a special day... Next year I'll be sure to round up my underlings and make the best chocolate you have ever tasted. So forgive me this year. What? I don't have to try so hard? What are you rambling about! Of course I do. The others told me what this day stands for. Valentine's Day is when you express your feelings of gratitude with the fiercest chocolate you can prepare. It's a chocolate war... That is why I must prepare the best chocolate you receive.
4	✔	Grr. H-how! How could this happen! Oh, (Captain)! Perfect timing! Sorry, but I've been tangled up in these ribbons. Think you could help free me? Choose: What do you think you're doing? E-erm... I had some gifts to wrap, so I bought ribbon. Then, I was meaning to cut the ribbon down to size... But I slipped on a banana peel. And before I knew it, I was wrapped up like a caterpillar in a cocoon. Choose: Are you my present, Razia? N-no! I slipped and somehow got tangled up in ribbon! D-don't look at me with such pitying eyes! J-just finish me off! I'd rather be dead than looked at like that!
5	✔	Finally found you! This is yours, (Captain)! Huff... Huff... I didn't think it'd take so much time to find you. Why am I in such a rush, you ask? Remember how I got tangled up in ribbons when I tried wrapping last year's Valentine's present? I thought I'd forgo the wrapping and just give you the present directly this time around. Aah! The chocolate's melting! I should've expected that since I was holding it this whole time... Huh? You want to eat it like this? Well, I guess that's better than having it melt completely... But... This is so embarrassing that my face is turning beet red! Urgh, I'd rather die than have you look at me like that!
Gift		Mixed Chocolate Cake

White Day Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Hey, (Captain), what do you have there? White Day chocolates? I see... Thank you. You returned the favor... Hehe... Wh-wh-what? I am not blushing! A-and it's not like I'm touched or anything either! I can't help it, okay? I've never gotten something like this from a friend before! My emotions got the best of me! Ungh, I wish I were dead! I'd rather embrace death than be looked upon with such pitiable eyes!
2	✔	What's the meaning of this present addressed to me! Hm? Oh right, it's White Day. Apologies. I completely forgot. You sure do hit the mark, (Captain). I'm proud you remembered that I was due chocolates... I can't even remember if I've put bullets in my lance gun or not... Wait! Why do you dare look at me with those pitiable eyes! Ungh, I wish I were dead! I'd rather embrace death than be looked upon with such pitiable eyes!
3	✔	These are... bullets for my cannonlance! (Captain), why would you do this for me? For what I gave you on Valentine's Day? ... Thank you... Thank you, (Captain)! I'll do... even better than before! Thank you so much, (Captain)!
4	✔	(Captain), thank you for the White Day gift. Speaking of. The bullets you gave me for my cannonlance last year... They're still in the box. N-no! I didn't forget about them! E-erm... It's 'cause they were from you! I didn't want to use them up! I-I'm telling the truth! So don't look at me like that!
5	✔	(Captain), that's an adorable package you have there. My... What a beautiful accessory. Ah, since I always stow your gifts, you chose something that I could wear? Thank you... But for me to put on something so beautiful as part of my regular attire seems-- No, you specifically hcose this gift so that I would wear it! And wear it, I shall! Hey, are you free to hang out with me later? After all, it'd be a waste if I didn't get to flash my accessory in town too.

Trick or Treat Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	So today's Halloween... You're wondering if I have something on my mind? Actually, Halloween brings back painful memories. First there was the time the knights' captain jumped at me in an incredibly life-like monster costume, so I panicked and gave him a face full of bullets... Then there was the time a subordinate tried to trick me, and I stabbed him with my lance... Or when I spilled all the kids' candy, and they egged me when I had nothing to give them... Why did the higher-ups have to get so mad at me when I used my subordinates for target practice? They deserved it. And then there were the costumes three sizes too small. Talk about embarrassing. Just stupid stuff like that. Those were trying times... But the worst embarrassment I've ever suffered through was when my lance accidentally discharged in front of the king... I'd... prefer not to think about that one. No! I'm not clumsy! It was all just bad luck! So don't you dare look at me with those pitiable eyes! S-stop it! No more! Ungh, I wish I were dead! I'd rather embrace death than be looked upon with those eyes!
2	✔	Huff... (Captain)... It's nothing. I just went into town and were out of treats... So that's why I came back. So much for trick or treat... What? What do you mean if I don't have a treat... H-hey! Why are your hands out like that! What do you mean tickle or treat? No! Stop! I won't have this! Aaaaah!
3	✔	Trick or treat, (Captain)! Tch... Damn you... You've got candy ready and everything... I thought I would repay you for what you did to me last year... What? Now you're asking me? You underestimate the enemy, (Captain). This time I won't make the same mistake as last! I have all the can- Huh? Wait... Why aren't they... But I just had some... Oh! Right. I left the stash in my room. W-wait! (Captain)! Why are you grinning like that! What do you mean, if it's not a treat, then it's a trick? S-stop! I do have a treat! In my room! So... N-no! Don't come any closer! Not another step, (Captain)! Aaaaaaaah!
4	✔	All right! I've made so much—there's no way I can run out. Wait... Just to be safe, perhaps I should pack some extra candy in my pockets. Oh, (Captain)? What brings you to the kitchen? Wondering what all this is? It's candy I've made for Halloween! The humiliation I was made to feel last year, and the year before... It's still so clear in my mind! So I've determined that this year, I will leave no openings! This year... This year's Halloween, I will not fall to a single prank! Just you wait and see!
5	✔	Hm, I think I can fit some more inside... (Captain)? Whew, what a surprise. For a second, I thought children had come all the way here to trick-or-treat. What am I doing, you ask? Well, I had plenty of candy prepared last year, but it still wasn't enough. That's why I made myself a candy-blasting cannonlance this time around! I can store plenty of treats in its chamber; there's no way I'll run out this year! Hehehe... I can already picture the surprise on the children's faces when they see me shooting out candy! No prankster's gonna get the jump on me this year!

Happy Holidays Cutscenes

1	✔	Urgh! Why does it always turn out so gross? Gasp! Who's there? Oh, it's you, (Captain). What are you doing up so late? Oh, you were thirsty? O-okay, well, grab a drink and hurry back to your room. Huh? Um, I'm not up to anything... Wait! Don't come over here! What do you mean, what's that? Can't you tell it's a cake? I mean, it's a little soggy, but... No! Stop! Don't look at me with those pitiable eyes! Ungh, I wish I were dead! I'd rather embrace death than suffer this disgrace! Huh? Oh... S-sure, you can help me. Let's roll up our sleeves and bake the tastiest cake the crew's ever had! That's right! There's nothing the two of us can't accomplish when we work together!
2	✔	This went well! Hahaha! Have a look! This is what I can do! ...! Who is it? Oh, it's just you, (Captain). Why are you here so late? What? The sound of my voice woke you up? I see... You have my apologies. Huh? What was I doing? I'm making a cake! Look at it, (Captain)! It is the cake! Nothing like the disaster I made last year! Hahaha! How do you like that? I've gotten quite skilled at this. What? I should watch where I step? What are yo— O-Ouch... Oh no... My cake... Just when I finally made it right... Why do I always slip up when it matters the most! Don't you dare look at me with those pitiable eyes! Ungh, I wish I were dead! I'd rather embrace death than be so humiliated!
3	✔	???: Gah... Razia: Who is it! (Captain)? What am I doing? What does it look like I'm doing? I'm knitting socks. For what? It's obvious! So Santa can put a present in it! What do I want? Hm... I want bullets for my cannonlance. The bullets are custom order. I can't just buy them anywhere. I asked my servants to purchase them for me, but they all insist they can't be bought. So I need another way to get my goods! That's why I've decided to ask Santa for them instead. What? Why are you looking at me like that? S-stop! Don't you dare look at me with those pitiable eyes! Kill me! I'd rather be dead than looked at like that!
4	✔	Cannonlance, all loaded up. Spare bullets, check... All right. I think I'm good to go! Hm? Oh, it's you, (Captain). Sorry, but I'm heading out for a bit. Apparently, the forest near here is a roost for giant birds. I heard it from one of the villagers earlier. And you know what today is, don't you? Yup, and what spells out holiday feast better than spit-roasted bird? So I'm off to hunt some drumsticks! Don't look so worried! I can handle a few birds on my own. I'll show you! Well then, (Captain). I'm off!
5	✔	Special flame bullets are locked and loaded... This time, I won't fail! Those birds are going to be in our bellies tonight! Ah! (Captain)? Did you... overhear what I just said? Oh... No, last year I just didn't expect the birds to be that big! But I've made special preparations this year! No more problems! So don't worry! All you've got to do is sit there and get hungry! I'll be right back with the biggest roast chicken you've ever seen!

A Knight Forever Hunting

During a mission to infiltrate a thieves' hideout, the crew frees the captive knight Razia and fights alongside her. Razia initially mistakes the crew to be members of the Zeyen faith, which she has sworn vengeance against, but the crew manages to convince her of their innocence.

Vyrn: I think we're getting close to the thieves' den. Keep your eyes peeled, guys!

Lyria: Right!

During a visit to a town, the crew is entrusted with a request.

Their task is to clear out a thieves' stronghold in a nearby mountain. Or at least that's what they were told.

Vyrn: So now we just—

???: Ungh... I wish I were dead! I'd rather embrace death than suffer this disgrace!

???: S-stop! No! Aaagh!

Vyrn: H-hey, did you hear that? Sounds like someone's bein' held captive!

Lyria: We have to hurry and save her, (Captain)!

(Captain) nods and they dash into the cave.

???: Huff... Huff... I... I am a knight!

???: I won't be done in by something like this—Yaaagh!

A group of bandits stands around an immobilized Draph who is breathing heavily.

Thief: Yer a feisty one, I'll give ya that. Let's take it up a notch, and—Huh?

Thief: Who the heck are you?

Vyrn: It's time to take out the trash! Come on, Lyria! Go, (Captain)!

Thief: Urgh... Who are... you meddlers...

Lyria: Are you okay? We'll untie you right away!

???: I'm fine... Thank you.

Lyria: How are you feeling? Does it hurt anywhere?

???: No, I'm fine. You have my gratitude for getting me out of that bind.

Razia: My name is Razia. Who are yo—Gasp!

Razia: Behind you!

Vyrn: Shoot, there's more of 'em?

Thief: Got ya!

Lyria: No!

Razia: Impossible! That was the power of a primal beast. How was she able to bend it to her will?

Lyria: (Captain)! Are you okay?

(Captain) is fine and thanks Lyria for her concern.

Lyria: Phew... That's a relief.

Vyrn: Yeesh. I was all on edge back there.

Vyrn: Oh yeah, we should thank that girl too. If it weren't for her...

Vyrn: Whoa, whoa, whoa!

When (Captain) and crew turn back toward Razia, they find themselves staring into the barrel of a cannonlance.

Vyrn: C-could you not point that thing at us?

Razia: Silence, adherent of Zeyen!

Razia: I can't believe you've managed to grasp the power of the primals and make it your own.

Razia: But to what end? I know you're scheming something, and I want answers!

Vyrn: Er, what? What? Look, we're just a buncha skyfarers...

Razia: Cut the crap! I don't want to hear any of that Zeyen sweet-talk!

Razia: Now answer my question!

Lyria: Vyrn's telling the truth! We're just—

Razia: It's obvious you have no intention of giving me a straight answer. I'll just have to do this the hard way!

Razia: What? Why won't it...

Vyrn: Did it misfire?

Razia: Oh right, it must be empty...

Razia: I'll just put in another magazine... But it looks like I'm out of those too.

Razia: My subordinates were worried about letting me handle the ammo...

Razia: Grargh! F-fine!

Razia lifts the cannonlance and aims it once more at the crew.

Razia: Oops—

But her foot gets caught on one of the ropes the thieves used to bind her, and she tumbles to the ground with a loud thud.

Vyrn: ...

Lyria: ...

Razia: ...

Lyria: Um... Are you all right?

Razia: That... hurt.

Razia: Ugh... How Zeyen of you to ensnare me in a makeshift trap!

Vyrn: But we didn't do anything...

Razia: Rest assured, a shoddy trap like this isn't going to stop—Hurgh!

Razia: Ngh... Somehow I'm all tied up again... I can't move...

Razia thrashes around trying to unbind herself.

But the more she struggles, the tighter the rope becomes.

Vyrn: Maybe you shouldn't...

Razia: Aaaugh! This sucks!

Lyria: ...

Vyrn: ...

Razia: Ungh, I wish I were dead!

Razia: I can't stand that look of pity in your Zeyen eyes!

Razia: I'd rather embrace death than suffer this disgrace!

Vyrn: Wouldja at least hear us out first? You've got us all wrong!

(Captain) and crew calmly explain Lyria's powers and the purpose of their journey.

Razia: You think I'm stupid enough to fall for an absurd story like that?

Razia: Zeyen practitioners are the only ones that can manipulate the power of the primals!

Razia: I won't be misled by your lies!

Vyrn: I don't think she's getting the message. What should we do?

Lyria: May I ask you something? Why do you dislike the Zeyens so much?

Razia: You want to know... why?

Razia: My father was brainwashed by the Zeyens to sow the seeds of war in my country.

Razia: Then I lost my dearest friend because of them... And to top it off, they even took my younger sister!

Razia: I'll never forgive them! They took every important person in my life away from me!

Vyrn: Fine, but how many times do we gotta repeat ourselves? We ain't no Zeyens!

Vyrn: For cryin' out loud. What's it gonna take for you to believe us?

Razia: Nothing you say can change my mind.

Then travel with us.
Then you can stay here.

Choose: Then travel with us.

Razia: Huh? Travel... with you? What's your game?

Lyria: We're not playing any games.

Vyrn: You won't listen to us, so (Captain)'s gonna let our actions speak for themselves.

Lyria: Right. I'm sure you'll believe us once you get to know us better!

Razia: Are you mad? The second you drop your facade, you're mine...

Lyria: That's fine by us! We have nothing to hide!

Lyria: So please join us on our journey.

Lyria: I think we'll be able to understand each other much better if we do.

Lyria: Well?

Razia: ...

Razia: Very well. Show me the meaning behind your actions.

Razia: Whatever the case may be, you're too dangerous to ignore. I'll be watching you like a hawk.

Razia: Once I uncover your evil Zeyen plot, you'll be forced to face justice!

Go to "Continue 1"

Choose: Then you can stay here.

Razia: W-wait! I can't move! You're going to just leave me behind?

Vyrn: We ain't got much of a choice, Scrappy. You'll just attack us if we untie you.

Razia: Ngh...

Vyrn: Do you promise not to fight us if we untie you?

Razia: Impossible! There's no way I can overlook such dangerous individuals when they're right in front me!

Vyrn: Yeah, that's what I thought. Guess we'll just leave you here!

Razia: Ugh. I can't stay like this.

Razia: But my only other option is to swallow the bitter pill of these believers...

Razia: No, wait.

Vyrn: You got something to say, Scrappy?

Razia: I'll compromise. As long as you don't do anything evil, I promise not to harm you.

Razia: Now cut me loose!

Vyrn: For real? You're not lying, are you?

Razia: A knight never goes back on her word!

Razia: In fact! Let me accompany you on your journey!

Vyrn: What? Where's this coming from all of a sudden?

Razia: As I've told you countless times before, you're too dangerous. That's why I'm going to watch you like a hawk!

Razia: I won't cause trouble. I just want to travel with you.

Razia: If you're truly as innocent as you say, then you shouldn't have any objections.

Lyria: What do we do?

Vyrn: What else can we do? We have to take her.

Vyrn: Well then, I guess Scrappy's gonna be following us around wherever we go.

Lyria: Aha... ha... Yeah...

Continue 1

Vyrn: All righty then. Let's get those ropes loose.

Razia: Thank you. I can move on my own again.

Lyria: Watch out, Razia! The rope is still—

Razia: Wha-Aaah!

Razia: Ow, ow, ow... Agh! Not again! Stupid rope!

Vyrn: You can't be serious...

Lyria: Are you all right, Razia?

Razia: Not again. Not this feeling of... disgrace!

Razia: Ungh, I wish I were dead!

Razia continues to lament her precarious situation.

The depths of darkness within this woman's heart are too deep to fathom.

Will this new path she has chosen allow her to dispel that darkness?

At this point in time, none can say.

Back to top

In Search of Distant Truth

The crew delivers medicine to a supposedly sick village, but finds the citizens in excellent health thanks to the efforts of a Zeyen missionary. Razia accuses the missionary of having ulterior motives, but is forced to work alongside him when monsters attack the village.

Vyrn: Are you sure this is the right village, Lyria?

Lyria: I think so. This should be it according to the map the requester gave us...

Vyrn: Yeah, well, I don't see any sick people around. Everyone looks pretty healthy to me.

Lyria: It does look that way.

The crew is on a mission to deliver medicine to a village beset by disease.

Arriving after an arduous journey, it seems perhaps the requester had been mistaken. The village is filled with lively banter.

Razia: Let's speak with the villagers. That'll tell us what's really going on here.

Lyria: You're right! Um, excuse me!

Lyria: Um, excuse me!

Villager 1: Yes? How can I help you?

The crew inquires about the state of the village and the disease mentioned in their request.

Villager 1: Nah, you heard right. We got hit pretty hard by the illness. Everyone was bedridden.

Villager 1: Then a Zeyen missionary came along and healed us all. Now we're healthy as can be.

Razia: You were healed by a Zeyen missionary?

Villager 1: Yep, that's right. However...

???: What's wrong? I thought I heard some raised voices coming from over here. Oh, are these travelers?

Villager 1: Yes. They said they brought us medicine.

Missionary: Praise Zeyen, that's wonderful. Thank you very much.

The missionary bows as a gesture of appreciation.

Razia responds by pulling out her cannonlance and thrusting it in the missionary's face without hesitation.

Missionary: ...!

Vyrn: Whoa, what do you think you're doing?

Lyria: Don't do it, Razia!

Villager 1: How dare you point that thing at the missionary!

Razia: What did you do to this village? What's your game?

Razia: For an adherent of Zeyen to save people... there must be an ulterior motive to your actions!

Razia: Answer my question! What are you Zeyens plotting?

Missionary: ...

Razia: I won't let you do to this village what you did to my country! I'll make you talk!

Missionary: I see. So that's what this is all about.

Missionary: Yes, I'm a practitioner of Zeyen, but I don't follow the Va'hen sect.

Missionary: Their ideology is a little too extreme for my liking.

Missionary: I'm just here to help out a village in its time of need.

Razia: I will never believe the words of the Zeyen!

Razia: You wriggle into people's hearts with sweet-talk and brainwash them!

Razia: But that won't work on me! I'll never believe a word that comes out of your mouth!

Missionary: I see you harbor deep resentment and hatred. You've witnessed truly terrible things in your life...

Razia: Terrible? You have no idea what you people have done to me!

Villager 2: Oh, missionary! It's awful!

Missionary: What in the world? You're wounded!

Villager 2: Monsters... There's a swarm of monsters approaching the village!

Missionary: Where are the villagers who were with you?

Villager 2: I don't know. We all panicked and scattered...

Missionary: I see...

Missionary: I know you're hurt, but I need you to warn the rest of the village to bar their doors!

Missionary: I'm going to see what I can do about those monsters!

Villager 1: R-right!

Villager 2: Understood!

Missionary: I'm afraid our conversation will have to wait. I must protect the villagers.

Lyria: We'll help you too!

Missionary: Are you sure?

Lyria: Yes, it's not a problem. Right, (Captain)?

(Captain) nods approvingly.

Missionary: You may accept me as a follower of Zeyen, but what about our knight over here?

Lyria: Um, Razia?

Razia: Why are we still standing around here? We have to hurry!

Lyria: Huh? Wha? O-okay!

Missionary: You have my thanks.

Razia: Don't get the wrong idea! I'm... I'm not helping you!

Razia: It's my duty as a knight to spare no effort in rescuing helpless villagers!

Monster: Grooar!

Knight 1: Ergh... We're being pushed back...

Knight 2: No! The line must hold! We've got innocents behind us!

Knight 1: I know that! If only Lady Razia were here, we'd beat these monsters in seconds...

Monster: Grrr...

Knight 2: What? Who did that?

Razia: You there! Knights! We'll take care of the—Wait...

Knight 1: Is that you, Lady Razia?

Knight 2: What are you doing here?

Razia: It's a long story...

Vyrn: Save it for later, Scrappy! We've got more incoming!

Razia: I don't need you to tell me that!

In Search of Distant Truth: Scene 2

Razia runs into her former subordinates, who have been searching for her ever since she disappeared some time ago. When she finds out the missionary helped cure them too, she's not sure what to say.

Razia: That should be the last of them.

(Captain) and the others succeed in chasing off the monsters.

Knight 1: Lady Razia! We were hoping to rendezvous with you!

Knight 2: Who could've guessed we'd meet in a place like this?

Vyrn: Hey, Scrappy, you know these knights?

Razia: Yes, they're my subordinates. I'm not sure what they're doing here though.

Knight 1: That's what we'd like to ask you! To say we're surprised is an understatement.

Knight 1: And you've got quite the group with you to boot.

Razia: Oh, uh...

Lyria: Excuse me!

Razia: What is it?

Lyria: I'm sure you've got a lot of questions, but shouldn't we go back to the village for now?

Lyria: We have injured people with us.

Razia: I guess you're right.

The crew brings the knights up to speed on their meeting with Razia on the way back to the village.

Missionary: Has everyone returned safely? Allow me to tend to your wounds.

Knight 1: Thank you, but I would ask that you prioritize the villagers first.

Missionary: So it shall be. The villagers will be in my care.

Razia: Ahem. You still haven't told me what brings you here.

Knight 2: We decided to form a search party to look for you after you went missing of course!

Lyria: Razia was... missing?

Vyrn: What're they talkin' about, Scrappy?

Vyrn: Does this have something to do with those thieves we found you with?

Razia: Erk! T-this isn't about me! Your superior is asking for a situation report!

Knight 2: Lady Razia...

Lyria: Aha... Haha...

Vyrn: Sigh...

Knight 1: You haven't changed a bit, Lady Razia.

Razia: Enough. Continue your report! That's an order!

Knight 2: Sigh... Affirmative.

Knight 2: When Lady Razia got lost—

Razia: I wasn't lost!

Knight 2: When... we couldn't confirm Lady Razia's whereabouts, we expanded our search to this village.

Knight 2: That's when we found out about the highly contagious illness... by catching it ourselves.

Razia: Gasp! How long have you been sick for? How bad is it?

Razia: Here, we brought medicine! Hurry up and take it!

Knight 2: Don't worry. We're all fine. That Zeyen missionary was able to cure us.

Razia: What? That missionary helped you?

Knight 2: Yes...

Razia: ...

Razia: Let me ask you something, missionary. We knights oppose you. Knowing that, why would you help my subordinates?

Razia: Surely you knew you stood to gain nothing.

Missionary: Does one require a reason to help those in need?

Razia: Pardon?

Missionary: It's heartbreaking to be viewed as an enemy. But that's still no reason to ignore the needy.

Razia: ...

Missionary: Now then, who's next? Please show me your injuries.

Villager 3: O-okay. Go easy on me...

The missionary gingerly applies medicine to the open wound.

Villager 3: The pain is fading away...

Missionary: There. You should be fine now.

Villager 3: Thank you! Oh, thank you!

Lyria: That medicine of yours is amazing...

Lyria: The mood was so gloomy just a minute ago, but now everyone's walking around with smiles.

Missionary: This is a special Zeyen salve.

Lyria: It's special?

Missionary: That's right. It was created with knowledge obtained from observing the Astrals.

Missionary: It's extremely potent but requires an extraordinary amount of effort to produce.

Vyrn: Should you really be using something that valuable?

Missionary: The teachings of Zeyen demand that we bring happiness to all people. That was the purpose of acquiring the Astral's knowledge in the first place.

Missionary: I'm simply following those teachings.

Razia: ...

Villager 2: Hey, come quick! There's an emergency smoke signal coming from the forest!

Missionary: From the forest, you say?

Villager 2: What do we do?

Missionary: I'm going in.

Villager 2: You can't! That forest is full of violent creatures!

Missionary: We cannot abandon those in need of aid.

Villager 2: I know how you feel, but...

Razia: Fear not. We'll accompany you.

Missionary: Are you certain?

Razia: The villagers are depending on us.

Missionary: You have my thanks.

Razia: Come. Before we're too late.

Vyrn: Got it!

Razia: I want the rest of you to form a perimeter around the village just in case.

Knight 1: Understood. We'll take care of things here.

Missionary: This road leads into the forest.

Monster: Groooar!

Vyrn: Yikes! We're fightin' already?

Razia: This shouldn't take long.

In Search of Distant Truth: Scene 3

Razia explains that she despises the Zeyen faith for brainwashing her father and destroying her country. The missionary tells her that her father is searching for a legendary relic of the Astrals with the power to change the past... and undo the death of her mother.

The party fights off the monsters and continues deeper into the forest.

Razia: I'd like to ask you something, missionary.

Missionary: Yes?

Razia: The Zeyens—that is, the Va'hen sect—approached my father while he was still mourning my mother's death.

Razia: They told him they had the power to peer into the past.

Razia: It was a power that would allow us to see her again alive and well.

Razia: Or so they claimed.

Missionary: Go on...

Razia: My foolish father fell for it hook, line, and sinker. He bought into their ideology completely.

Razia: And when they called him into the heart of the country to help instigate anarchy, he obeyed without question.

Razia: I lost a beloved friend in the chaos that followed!

Razia: And to make matters worse, Father took my sister and disappeared with the sect, abandoning me completely!

Razia: Why? Why did you people have to tear my country and family apart?

Razia: Answer me, dammit!

Missionary: ...

Razia: If it weren't for you... you zealots, then I...

Vyrn: Scrappy...

Lyria: Oh, Razia...

Missionary: And that's why you harbor a grudge against me—nay, us Zeyens?

Razia: Yes! I made a vow that day.

Razia: To get revenge on the ones responsible for my friend's death: the Va'hen sect! The Zeyens!

Razia: I will find my family and expose the truth! The score will be settled by my own two hands!

Razia: My possessions, my status... I threw them all away for this singular purpose!

Missionary: I'm deeply sorry for your circumstances.

Missionary: I know my apology can't even begin to soften the resentment you feel, but I must apologize nonetheless.

The missionary bows deeply.

Razia: Indeed, your apologies mean nothing to me.

Razia: I'd rather have you tell me the truth instead! What was the reason behind that uprising?

Missionary: Very well. I'll tell you everything I know.

Missionary: First of all, regarding the power to see into the past... That much is true.

Missionary: Those who have reached the level of high priest or have connections to the upper circle are bestowed with that power.

Razia: So it wasn't a lie...

Missionary: Correct. As for what happened to your country...

Missionary: Did you know that it was founded on ruins from the War?

Razia: Yes, I'm familiar with that part of our history.

Missionary: Well, did you also know that those ruins still exist underground, intact?

Razia: What?

Vyrn: Whoa! Those must be ruins from the Astrals!

Missionary: Yes. I'm not sure where that information comes from, but it appears to be true.

Missionary: Whatever the case may be, the Va'hen sect wants those ruins for themselves.

Razia: And in order to claim the ruins, they attacked my country.

Missionary: Yes. It also had to do with your country experiencing a wave of anti-Zeyen sentiment, I believe.

Lyria: Excuse me, but can I ask you something?

Missionary: Sure, what would you like to ask?

Lyria: It's been on my mind for a long time now, but what is the Va'hen sect? Aren't they the same as Zeyen?

Missionary: They are the same in a sense, but... their way of thinking differs from our original principles.

Razia: To fulfill their goals... to fulfill their faith... there's nothing they won't do.

Razia: Hurting others with indifference, stealing away lives as they see fit... It's an affront to our collective dignity.

Razia: I'd call that an evil that shouldn't be allowed to exist!

Missionary: I can't deny that. Their way of thinking is extreme, to put it lightly.

Lyria: Oh dear... And Razia's father is with them...

Missionary: I've heard rumors of your father.

Razia: Tell me! What's become of him?

Missionary: It would seem he's become a fervent Va'hen believer.

Missionary: He seeks the legendary Zeyen power to alter the past.

Razia: He wants to alter the past? Why would my father want such a thing...

Razia: No, it couldn't be...

Missionary: He likely intends to change history to bring your mother back.

Razia: I can't believe he would go to such lengths...

Razia: ...

Razia: But... but that's wrong!

Razia: I would love nothing more than to see her again, but not at the expense of others!

Razia: I... have to stop him!

Lyria: Um...

???: Grrr...

Razia: ...!

Villager 4: Yaaargh!

Vyrn: Lyria! Scrappy! Finish talking later!

Lyria: Okay!

Razia: Like you even need to say it!

In Search of Distant Truth: Scene 4

The crew escorts the rescued villager back home and thanks the missionary for his help. Razia realizes not all members of the Zeyen faith are evil, and the crew vows to help her find her missing father.

After taking care of the threat, the party escorts the villager back home.

Missionary: Please accept my sincere thanks for your aid today.

Vyrn: Don't mention it.

Lyria: That's right! We could never ignore people in need!

Missionary: I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Razia: ...

Missionary: Now, as for our knight... What will you do with me? Am I to be arrested?

Missionary: If it is your decision to bring me in, I will happily comply.

Razia: My hatred for Zeyen and desire for vengeance remain unchanged.

Missionary: ...

Razia: But there is one thing I've reconsidered.

Razia: I used to think everything the Zeyen faith preached was evil.

Razia: But I realize now that I was wrong.

Missionary: Oh?

Lyria: Razia?

Vyrn: For real, Scrappy?

Razia: You've proven that to me yourself.

Razia: And so you bear no guilt.

Missionary: ...

Razia: There are still many villagers here who need your help.

Razia: Arresting you for my own selfish reasons would only increase their suffering.

Razia: I couldn't bring myself to do such a thing!

Razia: How could I look at myself knowing that I harmed innocents for my own gain?

Razia: I would be no better than the Va'hen. I won't be the one to pull that trigger!

Missionary: I see...

Razia: I leave you with a warning!

Razia: Harm any of these villagers, and consider yourself marked for life!

Razia: You'd do well to burn that into your mind!

Missionary: Understood. I will take it to heart.

Lyria: Hee hee...

Razia: Hm? Do you find something about this amusing?

Lyria: Oh no. I'm just happy. That's all.

Razia: Happy? About what?

Lyria: It's... a secret.

Lyria: Say, Razia...

Razia: Yes?

Lyria: We're going to help you find your dad too!

Lyria: If we work together, there's nothing we can't do!

Razia: H-huh? Together?

Lyria: Yes!

Razia: You do realize my enemy is the Va'hen, don't you? We won't know what to expect.

Lyria: It's okay! We can tackle anything if we're all together!

Vyrn: Yeah! And now that we've heard your story, we can't just let you go it alone!

Razia: You don't have to go out of your way to do this, you know.

Razia: I fully understand now that you're not dangerous.

Razia: There's no reason for me to keep watch over you.

Razia: So stop worrying about me.

Lyria: We can't! You're a precious friend to us now!

Razia: Can you truly call me a friend given everything that's happened?

Vyrn: What're you talkin' about, Razia? Of course we can!

Razia: Ah. Thanks...

Razia: Then I won't belabor the point anymore. I'll do everything I can to help you. Promise.

Razia: In turn, I'm counting on you to support me!

Lyria: We will!

Vyrn: Yep, you got it!

(Captain) nods in agreement.

Razia can hold back no longer, her face lighting up in a smile from ear to ear.

The deepest recesses of this young lady's heart remain shrouded in darkness.

Slowly but surely, however, that darkness is beginning to recede.

Back to top

The Time Has Come

Razia is ordered to escort the Va'hen defectors to safety. When she and the crew arrive at the meeting place, the Va'hen are already picking off the defectors one by one. While searching for the remaining defectors, Razia accidentally falls down into the basement of a certain house and finds her long-lost little sister Alphiana.

Vyrn: Hey, Scrappy. Are ya sure this is the meeting spot?

Razia: Yes, that's what I was told...

Razia: (I still can't believe that I'm going to place a Va'hen member under protection...)

Mulling over the current situation, Razia recalls the conversation she had when she received the mission.

Vyrn: Protecting a Va'hen defector?

Razia: Yes... A letter detailing the order has just arrived from my superior.

Razia furrows her brow as she shows (Captain) and the crew the letter.

"Certain members of the Va'hen sect of the Zeyen faith wish to escape."

"You are hereby ordered to make contact with these members and ensure their safe passage to our country."

"I expect favorable results."

Vyrn: Wait, ya mean the Va'hen sect? Scrappy's enemy?

Razia: That's right...

Bitterness marks Razia's face as she acknowledges Vyrn's words.

Razia: To be honest, I have many words to say about this, but an order's an order. I can't turn my back on it.

Razia: But this might be a good chance for me to find out about my father's and sister's whereabouts.

Razia: I'm sure these Va'hen defectors have worked with them.

Razia: If that's the case, then I'll finally find them...

A look of pain mars Razia's face as she thinks about placing her enemy under protection in exchange for information about her family.

(Captain) and the crew look at her with concern.

Razia: If I can find my family and finish things with my own hands...

Razia: Then nothing else matters to me.

Razia: That's why I must ensure that this mission is successful.

Razia: (Captain), please lend me your strength!

Expression grave, (Captain) nods in a show of support for Razia.

Razia: I'm not sure if I'll be able to protect the escapee all by myself...

Razia: But if the crew's with me...

Lyria: Hey, you don't have to lower your head! Of course we'll help you!

Lyria: We promised, remember? You can count on us to be right there with you.

Lyria's right!

Choose: Lyria's right!

Razia: Thank you. I owe you all.

Vyrn: Besides, it's too dangerous to go alone, Scrappy. Ya know, with your special tendencies and all that.

Vyrn: Ya could get caught in some kind of trap, or even by the enemy themselves.

Lyria: Ahaha...

Razia: Unngh, I'd rather embrace death than be looked at with such pitiable eyes!

The crew let out a small chuckle.

And so, they begin heading to the designated location written in the letter.

Lyria: This person hasn't shown up at all...

Razia: Yeah...

Razia: Were we deceived? But—

???: Ahhh!

Suddenly, a bloodcurdling scream cuts the crew's conversation short.

The crew look at each other in shock before rushing to the source of the voice.

Moments later, (Captain) and company arrive at the scene.

There they find a woman unconscious on the ground, while another desperately tries to fend off a man with a knife.

???: Eek! H-help!

Va'hen Member 1: There shall be no mercy, for you have betrayed the Va'hen. Atone for your sins with blood.

Razia: Stop right there!

Razia hoists her cannonlance on her shoulders, points it behind her, and squeezes the trigger.

The powerful blasts knocks Razia forward, hurtling her directly into the man.

Va'hen Member 1: Guh!

As the two collide, the sound of the impact fills the air. The man flies backwards, and his body lodges into the wall behind him.

Lyria: ...

Vyrn: ...

???: ...

We gotta help!

Choose: We gotta help!

Lyria: R-right!

Vyrn: Hey, Scrappy! Are ya okay?

Razia: I'm fine. Not a scratch on me. I'll leave the rest to you guys.

The crew nod in acknowledgment before moving in to tie up the unconscious man with rope.

Vyrn: Geez, I get that you're clumsy, but don't scare us like that.

Razia: Clumsy? What are you talking about?

Vyrn: What? I'm talkin' about when ya flung yourself with the cannon!

Razia: ...!
That was on purpose!

Razia: What you all just witnessed was a brand new technique that I painstakingly developed!

Vyrn: You're kiddin' me...

Razia: I'm being serious!

Razia locks eyes with the members of the crew.

The crew stare back at her in complete bewilderment as they realize she's being completely serious.

Vyrn: Wait, wait, wait, are ya outta ya mind? That's way too dangerous!

Lyria: Yeah! What if you hit a tree or worse?

Razia: Don't worry. I've dedicated hours and hours to training.

Lyria: But...

Razia: Let's talk about it later. For now, we need to focus on what's at hand.

Razia ends the conversation before walking over to the stunned woman.

Razia: Can you stand?

???: Y-yes. Thank you so much for saving my life.

Razia: Don't worry about it. But I do have some questions for you.

Razia: Are you the Va'hen defector?

???: ...!

???: How did you...

Razia: I heard that man talking about how you needed to atone for betraying the Va'hen sect.

Va'hen Defector: Um... Who are you people?

Razia: I'm the knight who was assigned to protect you. I've come to pick you up.

Va'hen Defector: Really! Then, let's hurry, the others are wait—

Two gunshots ring out, and both the woman and the man collapse, bleeding profusely.

Vyrn: Wha!

Spinning around, the crew face the direction of the bullets.

They spy a few Va'hen sect members perched on a rooftop with rifles aimed directly at them.

Razia: Don't you dare!

Razia points her cannonlance at the enemy and pulls the trigger.

Va'hen Member 2: What the!

Va'hen Member 2: Wahhh!

Vyrn: D-didja get 'em?

Razia: I don't know. But it's safe to say they've stopped attacking at least.

Lyria: Why would these people go so far to hurt their own members?

Razia: Probably to silence them. They don't want anyone talking about their headquarters or the location of the other defectors.

Razia: Anyway, we need to—

Va'hen Defector: Knight... Please... Take this...

Mustering the last of her strength, the woman hands over a single piece of paper to Razia.

Razia: What is this?

Va'hen Defector: A map of... Master's location...

Razia: Master? Are you talking about your leader?

Va'hen Defector: Yes... It's all thanks to Master's guidance that we were... able to see the Va'hen's crimes...

Va'hen Defector: I beg you... Save Master...

Razia: Don't talk anymore. I'll apply first aid on you right now.

As Razia attempts to treat the wounds, the woman grabs her hand to stop her.

Va'hen Defector: I've committed... many crimes... as part of the Va'hen...

Va'hen Defector: Please leave me be... so that I can atone... Just save Mas—

Va'hen Defector: ...

Razia: Your last wish has been heard. I'll see to it. Let's go, (Captain).

Razia: We must save this Master. It's the least that we can do.

The crew pore over the map to figure out the Master's location before heading off.

Lyria: Umm, according to the map it should be right... Here.

(Captain) and the crew find themselves standing in front of a ravaged house.

Razia: We were too late.

Vyrn: What should we—

Woman's Voice: Ahhh!

Razia: ...!
There are survivors! Come, (Captain)!

Razia grips her cannonlance as she breaks into the house.

But as soon as she moves, her feet trip over the doorstep, causing her to fall forward.

Razia: Wha!

Lyria: Ahh! Razia, are you okay?

Razia: Ouch.

Unable to withstand the weight of the fall, the floorboards underneath Razia begin splintering.

Razia: Huh—

Razia: Ahhh!

The floorboards collapse, sending Razia down into the basement.

Razia: Cough, cough! I'd no idea the floor would be so brittle...

Razia: I'm not surprised the Va'hen would use such underhanded tactics.

Razia: I better hurry and find those survivors...

The knight slowly stands up, her head smarting with pain from the fall.

But as her eyes begin to adjust to the darkness, she recognizes the woman in front of her. The throb in her head is quickly replaced by shock.

Razia: Al... phiana?

Alphiana: Huh?

There, years after the fateful day where Razia's family disappeared, stands her younger sister.

The Time Has Come: Scene 2

The sisters' miraculous reunion is cut short when several Va'hen members surround and attack them, but they are rescued by the crew. Razia is overcome with joy to find her sister, but Alphiana doubts Razia's identity as she has lost her sight. Razia begins sharing stories that only her family would know about to prove her identity, and Alphiana finally accepts the truth.

Razia: Alphie... Why are you here...

Razia: Does that mean Father is also here?

Razia: But no, only Va'hen defectors should be in this building...

Razia: Does that mean that you... Are you and Father trying to escape?

Razia: Dammit, what the hell is going on! What's happening inside the Va'hen!

With the sudden reappearance of her long-lost little sister...

Thoughts begin racing uncontrollably through Razia's mind. She clutches her head, feeling overwhelmed.

Alphiana: Umm...

Va'hen Member 3: There were more allies, huh. Well, no matter—kill everyone except Master.

Razia turns around to face the voice.

Grabbing her weapon, she watches carefully as Va'hen members begin surrounding them.

Alphiana: Don't worry about me. Please, just run—

Razia: No. I finally... I finally found you.

Alphiana: What...

Razia: Everything's gonna be okay. I may be outnumbered, but victory is within reach.

Razia: (I know that (Captain) and the crew will find me.)

Razia: (We'll be able to turn the tides once when they arrive.)

Razia: I'm used to getting myself out of sticky situations like this.

Razia smiles at Alphiana before hoisting her weapon.

Razia: Let's do thi—

Lyria: Yggdrasil, come!

In the blink of an eye, vines erupt from the ground and bind the Va'hen members.

Vyrn: Scrappy! Are ya okay?

The knight spins around to find the crew rushing over to her in a panic.

Razia: (Captain)... My apologies. You saved me.

Lyria: Phew... No, we're sorry for being late. We couldn't find a way to get underground...

Lyria: By the way, who are these people?

Razia: They're Va'hen cultists.

Va'hen Member 3: Dammit... It was a diversion...

Va'hen Member 3: We were foolish to assume that the enemy would try such a crazy stunt alone...

The Va'hen members glare daggers at (Captain) and the crew.

Vyrn: Diversion? What are ya guys talkin' about?

Vyrn: All Scrappy did here was trip, fall, and break the floor. We were just tryin' to find her.

Lyria: And we're also here to save someone called the Master.

Va'hen Member 3: Enough with the jokes! You really think we'd believe that she just accidentally crashed through the floor like that?

Va'hen Member 3: No one's clumsy enough to pull off something like that!

Vyrn: Hey, I get that it's hard to believe, but it's the truth.

Vyrn: Isn't that right, Scrappy?

Razia: ...

Va'hen Member 3: Are you... serious?

Razia: Ugh, I wish I were dead! I'd rather embrace death than be looked at with those eyes!

Va'hen Member 3: N-no... How could we, the darkness's elite, fall prey to such an insolent little gir—

Razia: Silence!

Razia knocks out the Va'hen members with her cannonlance, her cheeks flushed.

Lyria: Ahaha... Well... What do we do now?

Razia: For now, we should evacuate to a safe place.

Razia: There's a good chance we'll run into more of those crazed cultists if we stay here.

Razia: Alphie, are you okay with that?

Lyria: Are you Alphie?

Alphiana: My name is Alphiana. Thank you for saving me earlier.

Alphiana bows her head deeply in respect at (Captain) and the crew.

Alphiana: But, if I may ask, how is it that you know my name?

Alphiana: And not just my name, but my nickname... Have we met somewhere before?

Razia: What are you talking about? Don't you remember me?

As Razia approaches Alphiana, she notices that her eyes have been closed this entire time.

Razia: Wait, Alphie... Your eyes... Are you...

Alphiana: Yes... I'm blind. That's why I can't tell who you are...

Razia: ...!
Is that so...

With pain in her eyes, Razia tightly embraces Alphiana.

Alphiana: U-um...

Razia: I'm your sister, Razia.

Alphiana: Huh...

Vyrn: Wait, sister? Then this is your...

Razia: Yes... My little sister who went missing with my father.

Razia: And it seems like Alphie is the Master we've been looking for...

(Captain) and the crew look back and forth between Razia and Alphiana with incredulous expressions on their faces.

Alphiana: Y-you're lying! My father told me that my sister was executed!

Alphiana: My father went through such great lengths to do what he did...

Alphiana: So there's no way my sister would be alive today!

Razia: If I remember correctly, I saw something written like that in his journal once. But I assure you, I'm alive and well.

Alphiana: I don't believe you.

The distrust and animosity are evident on Alphiana's face.

Razia furrows her brow, at a loss.

Razia: If only I could just prove to you that it's me...

Lyria: Um... What about sharing stories that only you and your family know?

Razia: Only things we know... I see...

The knight pauses as she sifts through her memories.

Razia: Unlike me, Alphie is very clumsy.

Razia: She used to wear these high heels whenever she put on a dress. But somehow, she always stepped on the bottom of her dress and fell down.

Razia: She fell over so often that our mother banned her from wearing high heels ever again.

Alphiana: ...?

Razia: Speaking of dresses, there was another time when she was trying on a new one and got tangled up in it.

Alphiana: ...!

Razia: Oh, and there's more.

Razia: One time, she fell in the river and wound up getting a fish stuck in her mouth. I remember her fighting for her dear life...

Razia: She hasn't eaten fish since that day. She thinks they're out to get her.

Alphiana: How... How did you know...

Alphiana: Are you really... Razia?

Razia: That's what I've been telling you.

Alphiana: Razia!

With tears rolling down her cheeks, Alphiana throws herself at Razia, embracing her tightly.

Alphiana: Razia... Razia...

(Captain) and the crew watch from a distance as the tender reunion unfolds.

The Time Has Come: Scene 3

Alphiana recounts her experiences with the Va'hen sect, including her rebellion against her father. She explains that her existence is paramount to the Va'hen. Upon hearing all the details, Razia vows to stop the Va'hen sect and her father at all costs.

The crew take Alphiana back with them to the Grandcypher.

The crew hastily depart the island in order to escape from further Va'hen attacks.

That evening, Razia stands on the deck of the airship alone, embracing the evening breeze.

Razia: What the hell is Father doing...

Questions rise in Razia's head as she thinks back to the conversation she had earlier with Alphiana.

Razia: Alphie, there's something I wanted to ask you.

Alphiana: What is it, Razia?

Razia: Can you tell me what happened to you?

Alphiana: ...

Razia: Even though my country fights against the Zeyens, you still requested protection from us.

Razia: That alone tells me this isn't any ordinary situation.

Razia: But I just don't understand why Father would've willingly let you go.

Alphiana: It's a lot... But I'll tell you everything that I know. Father is directly connected to all of this.

Alphiana straightens her back and takes a deep breath.

Alphiana: Is everyone here familiar with the goal of the Va'hen sect?

Vyrn: Yeah. Scrappy's told us all about it. They wanna try to change the past, right?

Lyria: And in order to change the past, they're looking for something called the legacy.

Alphiana: That's right. And after years and years of searching...

Alphiana: They've finally found the remains of the legacy.

Razia: ...!
Are you saying it really existed?

Vyrn: But wait, you said remains. What does that mean?

Alphiana: According to documents left by the Astrals, the legacy was the failed result of replicating something else...

Alphiana: It was supposed to be a modified version.

Alphiana: The Astrals had their own reasons, and they ended up destroying it.

Alphiana: That's what was recorded.

Alphiana: Later, the Va'hen attempted to restore the legacy but also failed.

Alphiana: It was around that time when we received an offer from a certain organization.

Alphiana: They offered data on the legacy in exchange for our skills and cooperation.

Vyrn: Hey, hey, that sounds suspicious as heck.

Alphiana: Yes. But the Va'hen accepted the terms.

Alphiana: Thanks to that, the full restoration of the legacy is in sight.

Alphiana: But the sect began falling apart.

Lyria: But why? Wasn't everything going according to their plan?

Alphiana: Members of the Va'hen began arguing over how to best use the legacy. It caused internal rifts and factions to appear.

Alphiana: My father's faction emerged victorious, and he arrested everyone who opposed him.

Razia: Wait a second! Weren't you part of his faction though?

Alphiana: Technically speaking yes, but I simply couldn't agree with his methods...

Alphiana: To be honest, I never agreed with any of the Va'hen's philosophies.

Alphiana: That's why I decided to rebel.

Alphiana: I thought that if I could use the faction disputes to my advantage, then I could tear the sect apart from within...

Alphiana: But I failed. And because of me, many of my allies were captured and...

Alphiana trails off, unable to finish her sentence.

As (Captain) and the crew watch, they think back to the time when those Va'hen members were desperately trying to protect Alphiana.

Alphiana: I was thrown into captivity and punished.

Razia: Is that why your eyes are...

Alphiana: Yes. My eyesight was stolen from me by magic.

Razia: But considering the weight of your actions, I'd say it's a small cost to pay, knowing the Va'hen's cruelty...

Razia: I wonder if Father had a say in this...

Alphiana: Yes. Apparently, members were told that I was "critical to granting the Va'hen's wishes."

Alphiana: They were ordered to not kill or maim me.

Razia: Now that you mention it, those people we dealt with earlier said to kill everyone except you.

Vyrn: In other words, you're super important to the Va'hen.

Razia: Yes... It seems like Alphie is paramount to them.

Alphiana: I was imprisoned for a while, but some of my allies who managed to survive came to save me...

Razia: And then you applied for protection from my country.

Alphiana: Yes. I believed that out of all of the countries, that was the one where the Va'hen wouldn't be able to reach me.

Razia: I think I understand the situation now.

Razia: I'll send a letter reporting the details to my leader.

Razia: The Va'hen may try to pull something dirty against my country.

Alphiana: Please do.

Razia nods and heads back to her room.

Alphiana: Razia...

Razia: Alphie? Are you sure you should be walking around by yourself?

Alphiana: It's okay, I have a cane...

Razia: Okay... By the way, how did you know that I was here?

Alphiana: (Captain) told me where you were after I visited Tikoh and Sophia.

Razia: Oh, you spoke with them? Were you trying to find a cure for your eyes?

Alphiana: Yeah. (Captain) and the others told me that it would be best if I got my eyes checked out just in case.

Razia: What did they tell you?

Alphiana: They said that magic is blocking my vision. The actual eyes themselves are perfectly healthy.

Razia: So if we just undo the magic...

Alphiana: Then my eyesight will return.

Razia: I see. That's great news then.

A sense of relief washes over Razia as she listens to Alphiana.

Alphiana: Um, Razia... Can I ask you for a favor?

Razia: What is it?

Alphiana: Can we... hold hands for a bit?

Razia: Is that all? Of course we can.

Razia smiles and takes Alphiana's hand, giving it a gentle squeeze.

Alphiana: I'm sorry, Razia.

Razia: Alphie?

Alphiana goes into an apology.

At the same time, a bright light envelops Razia's mind's eye.

Razia: ...!
Alphie, what's going on?

Alphiana: I just looked at your past for a little bit.

Razia: My past? What are you talking—

Alphiana: Haven't you heard that some Zeyens possess the power to look into the past?

Razia: I've heard of it, but...

Razia: Wait... You have that, Alphie?

Alphiana: Yes. I possessed the aptitude for it, so I was given the powers.

Alphiana: I used it to look into your past.

Razia: But why?

Alphiana: I just... wanted to see your face...

Razia: ...?
What do you mean? I thought you can't use your eyes...

Alphiana: This power has nothing to do with my eyes.

Alphiana: Looking into someone's past is like looking at a dream.

Alphiana: You can think of it that way.

Razia: Hm...

Alphiana: I only looked at the time when you saved me and when we were playing together as kids...

Alphiana: It was just those two moments. I didn't look at anything else.

Alphiana: Besides... I'm sure there are things you wouldn't want me to see.

Razia: W-well, that's true. But the fact that you even have this power...

Razia: I've heard many things about it, but to see it in action in front of me...

Alphiana: It's not as great of a power as you think. There are limits to using it, and I can't use it very often.

Alphiana: And being able to peer into the past doesn't give me the ability to change the present.

Razia: I suppose it's not as useful as it sounds.

Alphiana: Yeah... Well, it's good for recovering lost items though.

Razia: Everything's got a purpose in its own way. You used to lose things a lot when you were a kid.

Razia: Do you remember how much you were crying when you lost Mother's handkerchief? It was a special memento of hers too...

Alphiana: I remember. You helped me look for it everywhere.

Razia: In the end, we found it in your pocket after we took out the laundry.

Alphiana: You don't have to remind me of that part...

Alphiana covers her face with her hands as her cheeks turn pink.

Nostalgia fills Razia's heart as she looks fondly at her little sister.

Razia: (Even though parts of her have changed, she's still the same as I remember her.)

Alphiana: Hehe. But I'm glad I got to see your face...

Razia: Why? Are you still doubting me or something?

Alphiana: Rather than calling it doubt, I think I was feeling... nervous.

Alphiana: I was worried that the sister I remembered wouldn't be the same anymore...

Razia: It's possible though. Lots of things have happened since the day of the riots...

Alphiana: Do you want to talk about what happened?

Razia: It's not that important.

Razia: It's just the story of a woman who had everything stolen from her by her own father and the Zeyens, so she went on a quest to gain power for revenge.

Razia: That's all.

Buried deep within her words is a strong sense of hatred and resentment.

A chill runs down Alphiana's spine as the coldness of Razia's words reach her ears.

Alphiana: Revenge... I would've never imagined hearing you saying something like that in the past.

Razia: That may be true... But I'm not the only one who's changed. You've grown too.

Razia: You went from being quiet and meek to becoming a thorn in Father's side...

Razia: I couldn't believe my ears at first when you told me.

Alphiana: Ever since I left the country, I've always been searching for the legacy with Father and the Va'hen.

Alphiana: During our travels, I watched the Va'hen commit terrible crimes in order to achieve their goals.

Alphiana: I begged Father to stop them, telling him that their methods were cruel and unjust...

Alphiana: But my words never reached him. I wasn't able to stop anyone...

Razia: I see...

Razia: Although we walked down different paths, our goal's the same—to stop Father.

Alphiana: Exactly...

Razia: ...

Alphiana: ...

Alphiana: What do you plan to do from now on, Razia?

Razia: You know what I'm going to do. I'm going to stop the Va'hen... and Father with my own hands.

Razia: Even if it means I must shed the blood of my own family.

Alphiana: Is that so...

Razia: Alphie, what do you want to do?

Razia: If you don't want to see family fight against each other, just tell me—

Alphiana: No, I'm going to stop Father with you.

Alphiana: It's the very least that I can do.

Razia: I understand. Then let's stop him together.

Alphiana: Yes!

Alphiana gives a determined nod.

And with this fateful reunion spawning a heavy conversation...

Razia's vow to end things has only strengthened even more.

Back to top

The End of the Chase

The leader of Razia's knight order asks Alphiana if she's ready to stand against the Va'hen sect and her father. After Alphiana expresses her commitment, Razia is ordered to escort and keep an eye on her at all times. Alphiana asks Razia if they can go visit their mother's grave.

The crew takes Alphiana to Razia's country.

Parting ways with the skyfarers temporarily, Razia and Alphiana proceed to meet with the head of her order.

Razia: That concludes my report.

Knight Captain: I see... So that's what happened...

Knight Captain: First of all, I would like to commend you on your valiant efforts, Knight Razia.

Knight Captain: And also...

The captain turns toward Alphiana.

Knight Captain: Welcome to our country. You've done a great job of making it all the way here, Alphiana.

Alphiana: I am grateful for your protection.

Alphiana lowers her head gracefully in front of the captain.

Knight Captain: Before we proceed, I must confirm something with you, Alphiana.

Knight Captain: You sought protection from us. Do you understand what that entails?

Alphiana: It means going against the Zeyens, correct?

Alphiana: I understand your cause. But allow me to make one thing clear.

Alphiana: The Zeyen faith is not evil in my eyes.

Knight Captain: Well, well.

Alphiana: However, the Va'hen sect needs to be brought down.

Alphiana: I don't want to see anyone else sacrificed because of them.

Knight Captain: Hm. In other words, you won't raise a hand against the Zeyens despite seeking our protection.

Knight Captain: But you'll take action when it comes to the Va'hen sect.

Alphiana: That is correct.

Knight Captain: Interesting. Let me ask you another question.

Knight Captain: Turning against the Va'hen means turning against your own father.

Knight Captain: Are you committed to do so?

Alphiana: If I wasn't committed, I wouldn't have rebelled against him in the first place.

Alphiana answers with firm resolve in her voice.

The captain lets out a chuckle while looking at her determined expression.

Knight Captain: Heh, you're just like your sister.

Alphiana: Really?

Knight Captain: That's right. Razia showed me the exact same face a long time ago.

Knight Captain: Very well. This is how we'll proceed with our plans.

Knight Captain: Knight Razia.

Razia: Yes!

Razia straightens up and salutes.

Knight Captain: Your new orders are as follows—you will keep an eye on Alphiana at all times.

Knight Captain: If you see even so much as the slightest hint of suspicious activity, you will put an end to it with your own hands.

Razia: What? You're leaving Alphiana with me?

Knight Captain: Do you object?

Razia: No, it's not that...

Razia: Are you sure? Alphiana and I are related by blood. What if my alliance were to sway?

Knight Captain: Nonsense. There's nothing in this world that would convince you to work with the Va'hen.

Knight Captain: The dark flames of vengeance burn in the depths of your heart.

Knight Captain: Your resolve is steel—I know that better than anyone else.

Razia: ...

Knight Captain: Alphiana, thank you for sharing information with us. But you haven't fully gained our trust yet.

Knight Captain: That's why we need to put you under surveillance. That is final.

Alphiana: I understand. I appreciate your generosity for allowing my sister to watch over me.

Knight Captain: It's not an act of generosity.

Knight Captain: If you betray us, the responsibility will fall upon your sister's shoulders.

Knight Captain: Do you understand what that means?

Alphiana: I best watch my steps for my sister's sake, correct?

Knight Captain: Exactly.

Alphiana: I'll make sure to do so.

Razia: Thank you for putting together this plan of action, Captain.

Razia bows her head deeply in front of the captain, feeling overcome with emotion.

The captain turns away, as if to avoid looking at her.

Knight Captain: Save your thanks. It's to protect our country.

Knight Captain: There's no greater bond than family, which is why we should take full advantage of it.

Knight Captain: That's all I have to say. Dismissed.

Razia: Excuse me.

The sisters bow their heads before exiting the room.

Vyrn: Hey, welcome back guys. How'd it go?

Razia recounts how her conversation went with the captain to the crew.

Vyrn: Dang, are ya gonna be okay watchin' over your sis all the time, Scrappy?

Razia: I've got this!

Vyrn: I just can't shake off this bad feelin' for some reason...

Lyria: It'll be okay. We're here to support too!

Vyrn: I suppose so... But ya know how Scrappy's always trippin' and fallin' over everythin'...

Razia: What do you mean always?

Razia: Alphie's the clumsy one, not me!

Alphiana: Razia!

Razia: You know I'm right. Father and Mother always said you were always getting into trouble.

Alphiana: They said I was still better than you though!

Razia and Alphiana start bickering about who's the clumsier one between them.

The crew can't help but feel anxious as they watch the scene unfold.

Vyrn: Are they really gonna be okay?

Lyria: Um... Probably... I hope...

Vyrn: I hope so too...

(Captain) shrugs and gives a defeated smile.

Vyrn: Whatever, I guess it's fine. Anyway, what are your plans from here on out, Scrappy?

Razia: The captain told me to be on standby for now.

Razia: I'm sure the superiors are currently working up a plan. We're going to wait for orders.

Alphiana: Um... Razia... If you have time, there's actually a place I'd like to visit...

Razia: Where do you want to go? Are you, perhaps... talking about Mother's grave?

Alphiana: Yes.

Razia: Now that you mention it, the last time you visited her was... Well...

Razia: All right. Let's buy something for Mother in town first before going.

Razia: I'm sure we can find some of her favorite sweets.

Razia: (Captain), what about your plans?

We'll tag along.

Choose: We'll tag along.

Vyrn: Yup. We're worried you might get into some trouble along the way.

Lyria: And we'd also like to go pay respects to your mother.

(Captain) nods in agreement.

Razia: I see. Then let's get going.

Razia turns around and begins walking.

(Captain) and the crew follow her from behind.

The End of the Chase: Scene 2

While shopping for supplies before visiting the cemetery, Razia's clumsiness gets her caught in another accident. When Alphiana asks why the town is not the same as she remembers, Razia sadly recounts the Va'hen attacks that destroyed everything and killed many of their maids and friends. Overwhelmed with sadness, the sisters arrive at their mother's grave and encounter their father.

The crew agrees on paying a visit to Razia's mother's grave.

Before they go to the cemetery, they decide to stop in town to purchase some gifts.

Staff 1: Here you are, Razia. Sorry to keep you waiting. Umm, you can hold onto this...

The staff member gives a warm smile before handing a bag of sweets over to (Captain).

Razia: Hey, why are you giving it to (Captain)?

Staff 1: I wouldn't want you to trip and fall and make a mess out of the sweets before you even get to the grave.

Razia: Why would I do that!

Staff 2: Now, now, Razia. Make sure you walk caaarefully on the sidewalk, okay?

Staff 2: Oh, and don't go near any ropes, you hear?

Staff 2: You know what'll happen! Things will get messy!

Staff 3: Razia, I handed the bouquet of flowers to that nice person over there.

Staff 3: I don't want you to crumple the flowers before you arrive at the cemetery.

Razia: You guys... Why doesn't anyone trust me!

Staff 3: Why? Oh Razia sweetie, you're a magnet for accidents! That's why—

Villager: Help! Someone stop that dog!

Everyone spins around and sees a giant dog bounding toward them.

Razia firmly steps on the leash to stop the dog, but the leash wraps itself tightly around her feet.

Razia: Wha!

The leash forms a tight knot, knocking Razia off her feet.

Meanwhile, the dog continues to barrel its way down the street without a care in the world.

Razia: Crap! W-why is it so strong!

Razia: Gaaah!

Alphiana: Razia!

Staff 3: Somehow, it always ends up like this. I'm glad I gave you guys the flowers earlier.

Lyria: Ahaha...

Vyrn: I'm not surprised Scrappy gets warned every time she comes shoppin' here.

Staff 3: Razia's accidents have made a name for themselves.

Staff 3: That's why we always tell her to be careful, even though it hasn't worked even once.

Vyrn: Well, that's Scrappy for ya.

Staff 3: If only she'd acknowledge her own clumsiness...

Lyria: Knowing Razia, I doubt she'll ever do that.

Vyrn: Yep...

Alphiana: U-um, instead of talking about that, we should follow her!

Alphiana: She'll end up getting lost at this rate...

Vyrn: Nah, she'll be fine. It's her own town.

Staff 3: But this is Razia we're talking about. I wouldn't put it past her to get lost.

Vyrn & Lyria: ...

Let's go find her!

Choose: Let's go find her!

Worried, (Captain) and company rush off to track down Razia.

A while later, the crew reunites with Razia.

After returning the dog to its owner, (Captain) and everyone continue their shopping trip.

Razia: That was horrible...

Lyria: Ahaha... Are you okay?

Razia: I'm okay. I didn't train for all those years to get injured by something so small.

Razia: Anyway, looks like we've bought everything. Let's go to Mother's—

Alphiana: ...

Razia: What's wrong, Alphie? Did something happen?

A mixture of loneliness and pensiveness clouds Alphiana's face.

Razia tilts her head in confusion.

Alphiana: Well... I wanted to look at the town, so I asked (Captain) and the crew if it would be okay for me to look at their past.

Alphiana: They told me that it was okay to take a peek...

Alphiana: But what I saw was completely different from what I remembered.

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

Razia: Due to riots caused by the Va'hen, the town suffered great damage.

Razia: Everything had to be rebuilt from the ground up.

Alphiana: I see...

Alphiana: Um, Razia... Do you know what happened to my friends and the maids?

Alphiana: If they're still in town, then I'd like to visit—

Razia: Well...

Razia stops in her tracks as the words get caught in her throat.

Alphiana: Razia?

Razia: They're... not here anymore.

Alphiana: I had a feeling that they moved out of town...

Razia: No, it's not that. They all... died in the riots.

Alphiana: What? No... Please tell me you're lying.

Razia: It's the truth.

Alphiana: What... What happened?

Razia: That day... They targeted the family members of people who were important to this country.

Razia: All of them were taken hostage.

Razia: They tried to force people to join the Va'hen in exchange for their family's lives.

Razia: Besides that, I'm not exactly sure what happened.

Razia: But what I can say for sure is that the Va'hen killed all of your friends and our maids.

Razia: That's all.

Alphiana: ...!

Vyrn: It's amazing how you got out alive...

Razia: One of the maids sacrificed herself to save me. If it wasn't for her, I wouldn't be standing here.

Alphiana: But... I thought Father ordered people to come and rescue you...

Razia: They probably didn't know who I was. I was wearing a maid uniform at the time.

Vyrn: Huh? But Scrappy, I thought ya came from a wealthy family. Why were ya wearin' a maid uniform?

Razia: I wanted to cheer up Father by making sweets using one of Mother's special recipes.

Razia: I decided to make them together with the maids.

Razia: My clothes got dirty in the process, so I borrowed one of their uniforms.

Vyrn: Hang on, so you're sayin' that if they found ya, then ya would've been with ya dad and Alphiana now?

Razia: Exactly.

Alphiana: I can't believe that happened...

The color drains out of Alphiana's face as she falls down to her knees.

Razia: Everyone that you wanted to see are resting in the same area as our mother.

Razia: If you want, I can show you...

Alphiana: Please... Take me there.

Razia quietly nods and motions for everyone to follow her.

The crew is almost at Razia's mother's grave.

Razia: Just a bit further. My mother is over—

Razia: ...!

Alphiana: Razia?

Vyrn: Hey, what are ya doin'? We just bought those flowers...

Razia stands stock still as she looks into the distance.

The crew follow their line of sight and find a man praying alone in front of a grave.

Lyria: Umm... Do you know him?

Razia: Yes...

Voice thick with rage, Razia lifts her cannonlance and points it at the man.

Vyrn: Scrappy! What are ya doin'! Put that—

Razia: I never thought I'd meet you here.

Razia: Finally... We finally meet again, Father!

As the man turns his head around, shock plasters across his face.

The End of the Chase: Scene 3

Razia draws her weapon against her father Rhador, but he weeps with joy when he sees his daughter alive and well. He reveals the legacy that the Va'hen has been searching for and announces his intention to offer Alphiana to it in order to change the past and restore his family's happiness. The sisters vehemently refuse and begin fighting against him.

With her cannonlance positioned and ready to fire, Razia glares at her father with hatred burning in her eyes.

The crew stands behind, watching with apprehension.

Vyrn: Did you just say "Father?"

Razia: Yeah. This is the man... The Va'hen's ringleader, Rhador.

Rhador: Is that... Is that you, Razia? You're... alive?

Razia: I dug myself out of hell... just to end you and the Va'hen with my own hands.

Rhador: I see... You're alive... I'm so glad... I'm so relieved...

Despite Razia's apparent vehemence, tears of joy start streaming down Rhador's face.

Razia: What the hell do you mean you're glad! Don't mess with me!

Razia: Do you understand what you put me through?

Razia: Do you understand how many tears have been shed because of your actions?

Razia: I swear... I'll never forgive you!

Razia readies her finger on the cannonlance's trigger.

Rhador: Please stop, Razia.

Rhador: I don't want to fight against my own precious family because changing the past will solve all of our issues now.

Rhador: So please, put away your weapon.

Razia: ...!
Do you even hear yourself right now?

Razia: How many more needless sacrifices will it take to achieve your goals?

Razia: What do you mean, precious family! You're the one who abandoned me!

Razia: And you're the one who started this fight in the first place!

Rhador: What? No, you're wrong—

Razia: You didn't even come to check if I was dead or alive during the riots.

Razia: Rescuing me never once crossed your mind.

Razia: And you were sure that even if I was alive, the country would finish me off anyway...

Razia: Because the present never mattered to you. You thought that changing the past would bring me back.

Razia throws his diary that she recovered at him.

Razia: Do you understand what it's like to be left behind?

Razia: No, I'm sure you don't. You thought that as long as you could change the past, everything would be fine.

Rhador: I'm so sorry, Razia. But make no mistake—I've always loved you.

Rhador: This is proof.

The moment Rhador snaps his fingers, the space in the area begins to warp, and a strange object appears behind him.

Razia: What... is that...

Rhador: This is the treasure that the Va'hen have been seeking—the legacy to change the past.

Alphiana: ...!
But how? Are you saying you actually restored it?

Rhador: Indeed.

Rhador: Razia, this whole time I thought you were dead. All I wanted was to see you and your mother again.

Rhador: All I wanted was to bring our family back together, to see everyone smile...

Rhador: In order to make my wish come true, I had to get my hands on this.

Razia: ...

Razia and Alphiana stand in shock as they stare at the legacy.

The crew, on the other hand, watch with confusion.

Vyrn: Hey, why the heck is that here...

Akasha?

Choose: Akasha?

Vyrn: Looks like it. But, there's somethin' fishy about it...

Lyria: Yeah. There's no way the real Akasha could be here.

The primal beast Akasha has the power to rewrite history itself.

However, Akasha has been long since defeated by (Captain) and the crew.

Lyria: I also don't sense the presence of a primal beast within the legacy...

Vyrn: Alphiana said that the legacy was a failed replication and that the remains were destroyed...

Vyrn: Which means whatever that thing is, it doesn't have the power to control the past.

Lyria: I'm not sure... But I've got a bad feeling about this. We better be careful!

(Captain) and the crew put their guards up and watch carefully from a distance.

Rhador: Fate has been kind to me...

Rhador: Not only is Razia here, but Alphiana as well...

Rhador: My wishes will be fulfilled!

Alphiana: After I was caught, you told me something, Father.

Alphiana: You said that I'm an important piece of the puzzle for granting the Va'hen's wishes.

Alphiana: Exactly what do you plan on doing with me?

Rhador: That's what they all said... The legacy was an incomplete failure without the power to change the past.

Rhador: But it was missing a piece—a person with the power to look into the past. All it needed to do was to absorb that person's life force.

Razia: ...!
Are you going to sacrifice Alphie?

Razia: How dare you say you don't want to fight against your own family when this has been your plan all along!

Rhador: You're wrong! No one's being sacrificed!

Rhador: Alphiana will guide us back to those golden days.

Rhador: Because of her, we'll be able to get our family back!

Rhador: That's why I allowed your sister to become the Master.

Alphiana: You've always thought of me as no more than a pawn in your game...

Despair clouds Alphiana's face as she listens to Rhador speak.

Rhador: There's no need to worry, Alphiana. Once we change the past, you'll be with us. We'll all be together again.

Rhador: No one will be sacrificed... Everyone will be happy again!

Rhador extends his hand out toward his daughters.

Rhador: Alphiana, lend me your powers.

Rhador: And Razia, let's get back what we lost.

Unwavering, Razia continues to glare at Rhador with cold eyes.

Razia: I'm tired of this...

Rhador: Razia?

Razia: Father... No, head of the Va'hen, Rhador!

Razia: You are my sworn enemy!

Razia: You shall fall with the legacy by my hands!

Rhador: ...!
Why! Why don't you understand!

Razia: I have no reason to continue listening to your drivel.

Rhador: Razia!

Razia: (Captain)... I'm truly sorry for dragging you into my family's affairs.

Razia: But I need your help. I don't want anyone else to be victimized like I was!

Razia: I must put an end to this now.

We'll fight with you!

Choose: We'll fight with you!

Lyria: That's right! You're not just an important member of our crew...

Lyria: You're part of our family too!

Razia: Thank you.

Razia: Alphiana. I will take down Father. If you objec—

Alphiana: Razia, I want to help.

Razia: Are you sure?

Alphiana: Yes.

Razia: Then it's decided. (Captain), Alphiana—the Va'hen and the legacy end right here, right now.

Razia: Charge!

Rhador: As if I'd let you stop me!

Rhador: I'll do whatever it takes to bring back those days!

Rhador: I don't care if you're my daughter—I won't show any mercy!

Several Va'hen members suddenly appear next to Rhador.

Rhador: Kill everyone except Alphiana. We're one step away from realizing our goals!

The Va'hen charge at (Captain) and the crew.

Without hesitation, everyone readies their weapons and rush headfirst into the fray.

The End of the Chase: Scene 4

Razia destroys the legacy with a powerful blast, but it begins repairing itself by sucking the souls out of the Va'hen members. The sisters unite and obliterate the legacy together, ending the Va'hen sect's ambitions. Although Razia reconciles with her father moments before his death, her grief continues to weigh down on her shoulders.

The crew defeats the Va'hen within mere minutes.

Va'hen Member 4: H-how are they so strong...

Lyria: Yggdrasil, heed my call.

Va'hen Member 5: Tch, I can't get these vines off me... Gah!

Razia: Eat this!

Va'hen Member 6: Gaaah!

Alphiana: You can no longer hide the sins you've committed in the past.

Va'hen Member 7: Eek! Please, stop! I'm begging you, Master... Ahhh!

Rhador: I-impossible... How is this happening? Is that a primal beast?

Va'hen Member 8: Rhador, we can't keep going...

Rhador: Tch, they leave me no choice. I need to use the legacy.

Va'hen Member 8: But, the power to change the past will...

Rhador: The legacy doesn't have a mind of its own.

Rhador: But there are ways to use it to defend the user. That's what they said...

Rhador: If I can just do that—

Razia: No you won't!

Razia points her cannonlance backwards and pulls the trigger.

The force propels her forward, sending her straight into Rhador.

Rhador: Guh!

Va'hen Member 8: How dare you hurt Rhador!

Not so fast!

Choose: Not so fast!

Razia: Thanks for covering me, (Captain)!

(Captain) nods and gives a quick thumbs-up.

Rhador: Ugh... Why... Why are you doing this, Razia...

Razia: You're still conscious? I thought that would've knocked you out.

Razia: Conscious or not, it doesn't matter. You won't be moving around anytime soon.

Razia: The force of that impact is equivalent to falling down a cliff and smacking into all the trees along the way.

Vyrn: Geez... That's just insane...

Vyrn: How the heck are ya still so energetic after a hit like that, Scrappy?

Razia: Heh, it's a walk in the park for me.

Razia: Wouldn't even scratch me.

Vyrn: Nah, that's crazy...

Razia: Anyway, did we get everyone?

Razia looks around her carefully.

Lyria: Yup! We took care of all the members!

Razia: Good. The last thing is the legacy...

Rhador: ...!
S-stop! Razia, don't do it!

In a swift motion, Razia directs her weapon at the legacy.

Rhador desperately attempts to move his body, but his legs fail him.

Razia: ...

Rhador: I'm so close... to going back to those days...

Rhador: Me and your mother and you two... The four of us, laughing together again! I'm one step away!

Rhador: If you destroy the legacy, we'll never get it back.

Rhador: Our only shot at happiness will be gone!

Razia: ...

Razia: You and the Va'hen have already destroyed many people's happiness with your actions.

Razia: All because of your own selfishness.

Razia: You have no right to complain when it comes back to bite you.

Razia: Who says you can do whatever you want, but others can't? Hypocrite.

Razia: You reap what you sow.

Rhador: But if we change the past—

Razia: You think that just by changing the past you'll erase everything that happened in the present? Enough is enough!

Rhador: Please, I'm begging you! You can't do this, Razia!

Rhador: Don't you want to see your mother again? Don't you want to go back to those times when it was all four of us together?

Rhador's words give Razia pause as she recalls something.

Alphiana: Razia...

Razia: I remember those days where we'd spend time together as if they happened just yesterday.

Razia: But it doesn't mean that we can bring back the past.

Razia: Once you've lost something, you can't get it back.

Razia: And when I took my oath as a knight, I vowed to make sure no one ever has to suffer like I did.

Razia: That's why I will get revenge for the maids and everyone else who suffered at your hands!

Razia: This is the end!

Rhador: Razia!

Razia: I know that if things don't work out this time, you'd try to do this all over again! You'd sacrifice everything and everyone!

Razia: Stop obsessing over the past and look toward the future for once!

As Razia screams, she squeezes the trigger on her cannonlance.

The cannon hits the legacy dead center, blasting it apart from the inside.

Razia: It's over.

Rhador: Ahhh... My hope...

Va'hen Member 4: I was so close to getting back my children...

Va'hen Member 5: I promised to myself that this time... This time I'd tell them how I truly feel...

Va'hen Member 6: Give them back... Give back my wife and child!

Rhador and the Va'hen members wail in agony at the sight of the destroyed legacy.

As if in response to their cries, crystal chains fly out of the wreckage and ensnare the cultists.

Rhador: N-no! Stop it! Don't take my precious memories away... Ahhh!

Va'hen Member 4: Ahhh!

Va'hen Member 5: The people precious to me... Wait, who are they? And why am I here...

Va'hen Member 6: My memories... Everyone's gone...

The screams of the Va'hen intensify as the chains tighten and glow, choking them.

Moments later, the legacy is restored to its original state.

Vyrn: Hey, hey, what the heck's goin' on?

Alphiana: It's absorbing their memories... No, it's absorbing their life forces to repair itself?

Alphiana: No one told me it had the power to regenerate itself...

Vyrn: What are we gonna do? We gotta think of somethin' quick!

We need to destroy it completely!

Choose: We need to destroy it completely!

With sword drawn, (Captain) looks at Lyria as she begins summoning Bahamut.

Razia: Wait! I'll do it. (Captain), you guys just stay right here.

Vyrn: Hey, this is an emergency! What are ya talkin' about—

Razia: The legacy is the symbol of the Va'hen... The object of their worship.

Razia: That's why I must destroy it with my own hands.

Razia: This is the only way to quench the rage inside of me. It's my destiny.

Alphiana: You're wrong, Razia. It's our destiny.

Alphiana gently takes Razia's hands.

Razia: Alphie...

Alphiana: I'll go with you. Let's put an end to the legacy together once and for all.

Razia: You're right... It's on us to finish what we started.

Alphiana: Yes.

Razia: So please, (Captain), stand back.

Got it.

Choose: Got it.

Vyrn: But what are you two gonna do?

Razia: I have a plan.

Razia takes out all the ammunition from her pockets and loads up her cannonlance.

Razia: Good thing I got several rounds of this special ammo from my guys. Now I just need to unlock the safety...

Razia: Alphie, are you ready?

Alphiana: I'm ready. Let's go.

Razia: Yeah. It's time to finish this!

The sisters point the cannonlance toward the ground, hold on tightly, and pull the trigger.

The powerful blast sends both of them careening into the sky.

As they begin their descent, they aim the cannonlance directly at the legacy and make direct impact before shooting again.

Razia: This is it! Fire at will!

Shots go off, and every single round of ammunition pierces through the legacy.

Unable to stand the combined force, the legacy is reduced to smithereens.

Razia: Hah... Hah... Alphie, are you okay?

Alphiana: Y-yes... But I can't feel my arm anymore...

Razia: Me too. But I think we did it...

Razia and Alphiana nod at each other.

They slowly walk over to where their father is lying on the ground.

Alphiana: Father...

Rhador: Hah... Haaah...

After the legacy absorbed his life force to within an inch of death, Rhador's ragged breathing is all that is keeping him conscious.

Pangs of sadness and anger overwhelm the sisters as they stare at their father's limp body.

Rhador: How could I have failed... How could I have let it slip away from my hands like that...

Rhador: All I wanted to do was to bring back our family... To feel joy once again...

Razia: It was wrong of you to think that way. You weren't supposed to focus on the past.

Razia: You were supposed to focus on your family in the present—the family that are still alive today.

Razia: If only you'd done that, you would've experienced newfound joy.

Razia: No one else would've wanted to see that more than Mother herself.

The knight takes out a pendant from her chest pocket.

Rhador: Why do you have that... I gave that as a present to your mother...

Razia: Mother gave it to me right before she died.

Razia: She wanted me to have something of hers to remember her by.

Razia: She wrote her last words inside the pendant.

Razia takes out a piece of paper from inside the pendant and hands it over to her father.

Razia: Read it. It's Mother's last message.

Hands shaking, Rhador carefully takes the piece of paper and begins reading it.

The letter begins with an apology about leaving everyone behind.

It expresses gratitude about all the wonderful times they've spent as a family, desires for everyone to support each other...

And wishes for the rest of their lives to be spent happily together.

Rhador: Sob...

Tears spill out from Rhador's eyes as he reads his wife's final words.

Rhador: I was... so deeply wrong...

Rhador: I shouldn't have focused on the past... I should've been there for you two.

Razia: Yes...

Alphiana: That's right, Father.

Rhador: I've completely failed as a father. I wasn't able to realize such a simple thing...

Rhador: I've been a failure from the very beginning.

Alphiana: That's not true. If the Va'hen hadn't shown up, you would've never gone down this path...

Rhador: Perhaps that's true. But my mind wasn't as strong as you two.

Rhador: That's why I ended up being swayed by them...

Alphiana: Father...

Rhador: I'm so sorry, Alphiana. I was going to sacrifice you for my goals...

Rhador: I don't expect you to ever forgive me. You can hate me for the rest of your life.

Rhador: And I'm sorry to you as well, Razia. I ruined your life.

Razia: You did. Reflect on what you've done.

Rhador: I'm so sorry. Please take care of Alphiana... I leave the rest to you.

Razia: You don't have to tell me twice.

Rhador: You've... You've grown so big, Razia.

Rhador: But be careful. I know how clumsy you are... Just like your mother.

Razia: Don't get me started...

Rhador: Heh... I'm glad I was able to talk to both of you at the end...

Rhador: Even though... it shouldn't have been... like this...

And with those words, the last bit of strength leaves Rhador's body.

Razia and Alphiana watch silently, tears streaming down their faces.

???: The experiment failed, huh. But using the fragment did lead to a regeneration...

???: I suppose we lacked the resources. Or perhaps it didn't absorb enough souls.

???: Well, it's fine for now. I've amassed plenty of data for the report.

???: I need to recover the remains later. There's still plenty of experiments to be done.

A man stands far away in the distance, observing (Captain).

His lips form into a strange, twisted smile as he disappears.

The End of the Chase: Scene 5

Several days after the battle, the Va'hen sect has officially dissolved. The sisters visit their parents' graves together to tell them the situation. Razia decides to continue her journey with (Captain) and the crew in order to find more information about the organization that wants to bring the legacy back.

A few days later, Razia and Alphiana are paying a visit to their mother's and father's graves.

Razia: I've got news for you, Father. The Va'hen that you spearheaded has entirely collapsed.

Razia: After hearing about the legacy's destruction and Alphie's account, the remaining members all surrendered.

Razia: From now on, no one will have to go through what we did ever again.

Alphiana: Father... Everything's over.

Razia: Actually, not exactly.

Alphiana: What? But the Va'hen...

Razia: Yes, the Va'hen have been destroyed.

Razia: But we don't know anything about the group that wanted to restore the legacy.

Razia: And then another thing happened.

Razia: Apparently, the legacy's remains have disappeared.

Alphiana: ...!
Do you think it's the same group that wanted to repair the legacy?

Razia: It's not certain yet. But I think there's a good chance.

Alphiana: Razia, what are you going to do from now on?

Razia: I'm going to work with (Captain) and the crew to track down the group responsible.

Alphiana: You're going with (Captain)?

Razia: That's right. I'll be able to gather a wealth of information with them.

Razia: And I owe them a great debt for their help with everything...

Razia: I must repay them.

Alphiana: I see...

Razia: What about you, Alphie? What are your plans?

Razia: You've regained your eyesight after Father's death.

Razia: And now you've gotten back your freedom too, with the Va'hen gone.

Alphiana: I'm still thinking.

Razia: All right... Well, take your time. You've got plenty now.

Razia: The only thing I have to say is that you should live your life without any regrets.

Alphiana: I will...

Razia: And if anything happens, you can always talk to me. I'll always support you, no matter what.

Alphiana: Razia...

Razia: Besides, I promised Father that I'll protect you.

Razia looks at her father's tombstone and quietly pays her respects.

Razia: (Father, I will uphold my promise. You can rest in peace now.)

Razia: (I hope that you and Mother will watch over us from the heavens.)

Razia has finally settled her score.

With renewed determination, Razia commits herself to once again moving forward with purpose.

Bound Together

The crew accepts a mission to infiltrate a bandit hideout. Beatrix and Razia each scramble to be first to reach the hideout and prove their strength to the other, but they fall into one of the bandits' traps and end up bound together. The pair manage to escape unharmed thanks to Razia causing a diversion and Beatrix freeing herself from the rope. They finally recognize each other's ability, but soon begin arguing once again.

Beatrix: Argh! Why are you following me? You don't think I can handle this on my own?

Razia: Huh? What about you! Why are you running away? You think I'm just going to be a hindrance?

Beatrix and Razia dash through the narrow cave, bickering all the way.

The two are determined to prove their strength to each other.

It all started when (Captain) and company accepted a mission to locate a bandit hideout.

Beatrix: Heheh. I'm here to help this time, Razia! You're in good hands!

Razia: Right. That's most reassuring... But why are you so concerned about me?

Beatrix: Hm? You were careless and got yourself caught by bandits before, didn't you? I can't let you go alone!

Razia: Urgh!

Razia: But if that's the case, shouldn't you need my help too?

Beatrix: Huh? What do you mean?

Razia: I heard from (Captain) that the crew first met you when you'd been captured after failing to infiltrate an enemy base.

Beatrix: Urgh... I-I wasn't feeling well that day!

Razia: Heh... I can't let you go alone! I'll be the one to lend you a hand.

Beatrix: Hah! I don't need your help!

Beatrix: I'm used to missions like this. Just let me take the lead, and we'll be finished in a jiff!

Razia: I'm concerned you'll get too comfortable and let your guard down. You should stay behind me!

Beatrix: Don't worry! I'll be careful! Just leave it to me!

Vyrn: Hey, are those two gonna be okay?

Lyria: Hahaha... They're both really strong. I'm sure they'll be fine!

But the argument between Beatrix and Razia becomes increasingly heated.

Beatrix: Argh! If you're going to keep doubting my ability, I'll just have to show you what I can do!

Beatrix: Heheh. You just watch! I'll smash this hideout to pieces all by myself!

Razia: W-what? Where did that come from?

Beatrix: Heheh! I'll show 'em!

Razia: Argh! Wait!

Vyrn: H-hey! Calm down, you two!

The pair race through the cave, each attempting to be the first to find the bandit hideout and demonstrate their true strength.

Razia: Huff... Huff...

Beatrix: Heheh! What's wrong? You seem out of breath. I'm not even close to being tired!

Razia: Urgh... I'm carrying a lot more weight than you! My cannonlance is incredibly heavy, I'll have you know. I'm at a big disadvantage here!

Razia: Heh. In other words, don't you feel embarrassed that you aren't leaving me in the dust?

Beatrix: Heh. I've got nothing to be embarrassed about!

Beatrix: I had three extra helpings of rice for breakfast! That's gotta be at least as much extra weight as that thing you're carrying around!

Razia: Wha... There's no rice in all the skies that would be that heavy!

Beatrix: Heh. Then I guess I've just got a bigger heart than you, and it's weighing me down!

Razia: Huh? W-what was that for! Are you resorting to insults now?

A suspicious glowing string is stretched across their path.

But the pair are so absorbed in their quarrel that they fail to notice.

Beatrix: Aaaaah!

Beatrix and Razia are launched into the air, their screams echoing through the cave.

They then tumble to the ground, bound together.

Beatrix: What did I do to deserve this!

Razia: Urgh. What a clever trap...

Bandit: Heh... Nah, you two are just morons!

Beatrix: Wha! Hey, who are you calling a moron?

Razia: I am a proud knight! It'll take more than a trap like this to make me surrender!

They twist about trying to remove the rope, but the more they struggle, the more tangled the rope becomes.

Razia: Urgh... I can't... breathe!

Beatrix: Ngh... It hurts...

Bandit: ...

Razia: Argh! I can't believe I have suffered such disgrace at the hands of you second-rate scoundrels!

Razia: Ngh! Just kill me!

Beatrix: Hey, don't be stupid! You can't just give up like that!

Bandit: Tch. What's wrong with those two? They go and make everything worse all by themselves, and then they ask us to kill 'em? What's that about?

Beatrix: (Huh? They're all out of sorts because of what Razia said...)

Beatrix: (I get it! She's putting on an act to give us an opening!)

Beatrix: (All right! In that case...)

While the bandits are distracted, Beatrix makes to cut the rope with the Embrasque Sword.

Beatrix: Oh no!

She drops the sword due to the awkward position she's stuck in.

The sword slides down an incline, coming to a stop at the edge of a gaping hole in the ground.

Beatrix: Thank goodness... That was close!

Bandit: Hey, sword lady! Quit your wigglin'!

Beatrix: Tch... I guess it won't be easy getting out of this rope while those goons are watching...

Bandit: Heh. I wouldn't mind killin' you like you asked, but you might still have buddies lurkin' around!

Bandit: Let's see... Whaddya say we rough you up a bit, and we'll all have a nice chat!

The bandits creep closer. But just as all hope seems lost, Razia makes her move.

Razia: Take this!

Bandit: What the?

Razia fires a shot from her cannonlance.

However, the awkward position makes aiming difficult, and the bullet shoots off in the wrong direction, causing an explosion.

Razia: Urgh... I missed! And that was my only bullet!

Bandit: Are you crazy, lady? You tryin' to bring down the entire cave?

Beatrix: Nooo! My Embrasque!

Beatrix watches as the Embrasque Sword soars through the air and plummets into the hole.

Razia: Oh no! I-I'm so sorry...

Bandit: Hahaha! What a couple of screw-ups!

Beatrix: ...!
(The bandits are distracted... Now's my chance!)

Razia: Ngh... Prepare yourselves! I'll finish this with one more shot!

Bandit: Hey now, didn't you just say you're all outta bullets?

Razia: Oh, right... Curses!

Bandit: Hahaha! You really are a moron!

Razia: Urgh! I'm being mocked by bandits!

Beatrix: Heh! They've gotten a bit big for their boots, but that ends now!

Beatrix claps her newly freed hands together and turns to face the bandits.

Razia: Wha! Beatrix! What happened to the rope?

Beatrix: Heheh. I untied it ages ago! Get up, Razia! It's time to get our revenge! They're gonna pay for those insults!

Bandit: Damn it! All that talking was just to buy time?

Beatrix: Heheh. So you finally noticed. Who are the morons now?

Razia: Well... I wasn't really trying to buy time, but no matter...

Razia: You have my thanks! Now we can bring these bandits to justice!

Bandit: Tch. Think you're hot stuff, do you?

Bandit: Hah! A swordswoman without a sword and a cannon-wielding knight without bullets? You don't stand a chance against us!

The bandits ready their weapons.

Vyrn: H-hey, you two okay? We heard a loud explosion...

(Captain) and the crew catch up, turning the tables on the bandits.

Razia: (Captain)! Perfect timing!

Bandit: Tch. They brought their friends! We'll just have to take 'em all out at once!

Beatrix: Bring it on! I'm ready when you are, flunkies!

Razia: I'll make you feel the same disgrace I suffered at your hands!

(Captain) and company make quick work of the bandits.

Vyrn: Man, don't just run off like that. I'm sure glad you two are okay though.

Lyria: Yeah! We already know you two are strong. You don't need to prove it to anyone!

Beatrix: Ngh... S-sorry about that.

Razia: I got a bit carried away...

Vyrn: Hey, Beatrix, where'd your sword go?

Razia: My cannon fire caused it to fall into that hole...

Vyrn: Um... Isn't that gonna be a problem? Doesn't that thing belong to the Society?

Beatrix: Augh... I-if my drill sergeant finds out, she'll kill me! We've gotta get it back!

Beatrix peers into the hole, hoping to spot the Embrasque Sword.

Beatrix: Sigh... It's too dark to see anything...

Razia: Oh? Let me take a look...

Razia peeks into the hole from behind Beatrix.

Vyrn: H-hey, that rock wall's startin' to collapse!

Razia: Huh? Whoa!

Beatrix: You've gotta be kidding me!

Beatrix: Aaaaah!

Vyrn: Whoa! I tried to tell 'em! Let's get 'em outta there, (Captain)!

(Captain) and the crew hastily descend into the hole to rescue Beatrix and Razia, who had fallen inside.

After a while, (Captain) and company manage to climb their way up from the depths of the pit.

Vyrn: Sheesh. I feel like all we've been doing is saving those two...

Lyria: Hahaha... It's been quite an adventure.

Beatrix: But I'm so glad we found the Embrasque Sword... Thanks for the help!

Razia: Er... I feel I should apologize. It was all my fault...

Beatrix: Haha! What are you talking about? It was my fault too. Besides, you really saved our necks back there!

Beatrix: I especially liked the part when you told those thugs to kill you! Man, that was some great acting!

Razia: Hm? A-acting? What do you mean?

Beatrix: Hahaha. There's no need to be modest! Sorry Razia, I really underestimated you.

Razia: I appreciate your kind words, but... Well...

Razia: You see... Oh, never mind.

Razia: Er... The way you freed yourself from that rope was most impressive. I didn't even notice you untying it.

Beatrix: Heheh! Well, I have a lot of experience escaping from ropes!

Vyrn: Huh? Doesn't that just mean you've been caught a bunch?

Beatrix: Oh, come on! Don't sweat the details!

Beatrix: But I guess if it hadn't been for my brilliant escape from that rope, we would've been in real trouble!

Razia: Hm?

Razia: Now just a minute! If it hadn't been for that shot I fired, they would have rounded us all up!

Beatrix: Hmm. That was pretty helpful... but I would've been able to make an opening on my own!

Razia: W-what was that?

Lyria: Oh no... There they go again!

Vyrn: Well, I guess they just fight like that 'cause they're such good friends... We can prolly just let 'em be.

Beatrix and Razia start bickering once again. (Captain) and company can do nothing but watch, smiling wryly.

The voices from the lively argument echo through the narrow cave.
