Happy Birthday Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Happy birthday, (Captain). Oh my, it looks like you've gotten slightly bigger. Not just in terms of your height, but also your heart. To watch a child's growth is a mother's pride and joy. Our situation is no different. Although I am technically not your mother, I certainly do keep watch over you. Know that I'm always here for you. What do you say to setting aside your duties as captain and simply frolicking about like a child, just for today? I'll make it worth your while.
2	✔	Happy birthday, (Captain). I have something I want you to know, now that you are one step closer to adulthood. It is very admirable of you to always act like an adult and to want to grow up as soon as you can. After all, it's important to work toward an ideal that you envision for yourself. That is how one can grow as a person. But it's just as important to recognize that you are still a child. There is a part of you that remains inexperienced. By realizing that you are insufficient in your current state, you can discern what it is that you need and learn accordingly. An ideal is not something that can be achieved immediately. But that's why it's all right to depend on someone who does have the experience. By being protected, supported, and raised in this way, someday, you too can protect, support, and raise someone else. That is the proper cycle. So (Captain), in times of need, remember to look around you and find a person whom you can depend on. There must be someone close by who wishes for you to depend on them. Relying on others is also important in life—don't forget that.
3	✔	Happy birthday, (Captain). You are another year closer to adulthood. Hm? You feel as if you aren't growing up fast enough? Take it from a grown-up's perspective—it seems like a waste to carelessly hurtle through one's childhood. Adolescence is a critical time for observation and learning. There are so many experiences you should be absorbing. But ironically, you won't actually realize how important it is until it's too late, and you've become an adult. Now, I don't have the right to tell you how to live your life, but my suggestion is to stop and take a deep breath. Then you will be able to see an even bigger world, one that's more beautiful and meaningful than you originally thought. Regrets are a part of life, but if I can help you avoid even one regret, I will gladly help you do so. Well, the things I've just said are very much the ramblings of an adult... But I sincerely hope, from the bottom of my heart, that you turn out wonderfully, (Captain).
4	✔	I've seen many things with my eyes, but the sight I long to see most are the smiles on everyone's faces. Everything happens for a reason. Nothing makes me happier than making someone laugh, be they friend or stranger. As someone who is lucky enough to be able to celebrate your birthday with you, I hope to see you happy for the many years to come. You will no doubt have to overcome a multitude of trials throughout your existence. No life is without its fair share of hardships. I know that sounds obvious. Therefore it should also be obvious that you don't have the shoulder every burden by yourself. Please don't forget that. It's okay to cry when you're sad. It's okay to scream when you're mad. Don't be afraid to lean on someone, or even me. Does that sound good? Otherwise if you bottle up everything inside, you'll become closed off and isolated. Hehe, I'm sorry for being preachy. Let's get to the part you've been waiting for: the party! Happy birthday, (Captain)!
5	✔	Another year has passed, and another birthday is here. What did you think of this year, (Captain)? Even though you're growing up, I still want to protect you no matter what. There's no doubt that the things I'm able to see are vastly different from what you can see. Through my eyes, I can see everything you've experienced, from the highs to the lows, and things you've yet to discover. Place your hand gently on your chest and think for a moment. All those feelings and thoughts coursing through your body build upon each other, changing you into an adult. Children truly do grow up in the blink of an eye. But, before you become a full-fledged adult, will you let me watch over you just a bit more? (Captain), my sweet child... Happy birthday.

Happy New Year Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Happy New Year, (Captain). Let's make this year an equally splendid one. At the Suo family, we usually hold a party for the occasion and invite children from all over. They use the opportunity to show me whatever new knowledge and neat tricks they've picked up throughout the year. I always love seeing how much everyone has grown. Why don't you attend next time, (Captain)? You might not be a member of the Suo family, but I certainly consider you one of my own. I welcome you from the bottom of my heart if you'd ever consider it. I'd love to introduce you to everyone.
2	✔	Happy New Year, (Captain). I'm looking forward to spending another year with you. Yes, I'm planning to join the New Year's celebrations myself. But before that... here you go. A New Year's gift for you. Oh, no need to hold back. At times like these, you should simply let the adults pamper you. Good. Will you be visiting the shrine with everyone? I hope you can enjoy the different stalls there. Perhaps a little shopping spree? Most children are told to spend their money wisely... But in your case, I think it would be a good experience for you to spend extravagantly for once.
3	✔	Happy New Year, (Captain). I plan to attend the New Year's party. Will you be gracing us with your presence too? Of course there will be otoso sake there as well. You don't mind the taste of it, do you? Choose: Why do people drink that stuff? Oh my, you don't know? Drinking otoso is meant to flush evil afflictions accumulated over the year from the body. It is a prayer for a long, healthy life. You could say it's like a liquid good luck charm, but it's a vital reminder to be conscious of your health at the start of the year. To overcome seemingly hopeless situations, we have to avoid foreseeable risks by being prepared. Furthermore, otoso has medicinal properties that are good for the body. I think you should have some, (Captain). Besides, the otoso at the party isn't the strong alcoholic kind but one that's mixed with mirin instead. Try it and taste the difference for yourself.
4	✔	Well, hello there, (Captain). Your cheeks seem a tad rosy... Have you come down with a fever? Rei and (Captain) are attending a New Year's party. The Harvin checks (Captain)'s cheek with the back of her hand. As I thought, it's a little warm... Hm? You took a sip of New Year's sake with the crew? Oh my little angel. Perhaps it was stronger proof than normal? (No, the crew wouldn't serve anything beyond a light sake. It seems (Captain) may have gotten carried away by the boisterous cheers of the older crew members.) And now your face is all red. Your body must be surprised by this new experience. Do you feel giddy? Well, as long as it's the giggles minus the headache, then I suppose there's no harm done. The party's about to start anyway, so why don't you take a seat? Um, (Captain)? That's where performers are going to stand. Your seat is over— Choose: Lemme shing the first shong! Wooo! Goodness... You are a lightweight... Oh well, this is fine. Hahaha. I'm on the edge of my seat. Let's hear you belt one out, (Captain)!

Valentine's Day Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Splendid work this year, (Captain). Here, have some chocolate. Hm? You'd like the pile of chocolate behind me as well? Haha, let's not get too greedy now. The family's children deserve their share as well. Asha and I make just enough for everyone each year. We'll have to go soon. Huh? Oh, haha. How cute of you. We'd be glad to have your help in handing out the chocolates. Do this, and I'll love you even more. After all, it's a mother's job to dote on her children.
2	✔	(Captain), would you take this off my hands? It's Valentine's Day chocolates. Oh my, to see you so happy sets my heart aglow. When I gave a certain someone his present, he was so embarrassed, he screamed his thank you. Both of you are such sweet kids. Hehe, it makes me want to spoil you even more. So long as all of you children grow up healthy and strong, I'll be content. Having you here, even just to bring you gifts... I know no greater happiness...
3	✔	Happy Valentine's Day, (Captain). Here's some chocolate for you. Thank you for accepting it without fail. Is it strange for the person giving the gift to thank the recipient? No, I do not believe so. Every year when I hand you a present, I see your face light up. That joy is, to me, a blessing. So keep being as adorable as you are, (Captain). I want to see your smile again when I give you chocolates next year. And the year after that, and the year after that, until you are old and gray. Hahaha. Promise me.
4	✔	Aha, I'm glad I found you, (Captain). You're quite the popular one on this holiday. I knew I had to find you early. You have fans and admirers galore, and I'm incredibly happy for you. But seeing as how Valentine's Day comes but once a year, I'd like to give you your gift on the actual day of. Here you go. These perfectly sweet chocolates are filled with my love. I wondered how elated I would feel seeing you happily open my gift. The Sky Realm is full of dangers. No, not just in the Sky Realm, but in everyday life. It is my greatest wish that I get to give you chocolates again next year and every year after that. I wish you, the apple of my eye, only the best.
Gift		White Chocolate Cake

White Day Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Happy White Day, (Captain). Haha, what a joy it is to receive a treat from someone other than the Suo children. Of course, that isn't to say you're not an important family member too. Really, thank you. (Captain), please don't ever hesitate to ask me for help. Many obstacles await in the path to the destination you share with Lyria. Surely acting a bit spoiled every now and then wouldn't hurt.
2	✔	My, a White Day gift? Thank you, (Captain). You kind soul, you. You certainly are a compassionate child. Maybe too much, if I'm being truthful. You work so hard for everyone around you—you must run yourself ragged. Come, we must work on your ability to accept praise and favors from others. How do you do that? Hehe. I have an idea. Allow me to guide you through the process. Today, for the whole day, as a thank you for your gift, I'll spoil you rotten. Then you'll get used to it. See, who's a good child? Our lovely little captain who works so hard, who cares so much. That's our (Captain), and we love you so.
3	✔	Thank you for giving me yet another White Day gift. Oh dear, are you all right? Why are you acting so bashful? Haha, I'm just teasing. I'm sorry, but you were so cute that I couldn't help myself. You know where this is going, don't you? Come over here then. Come on. Let me pamper you silly. Absorb my generosity and the lessons I have to offer, (Captain). Today is a special day, and I'll show you anything you want. Knowledge, dreams, wishes... it's all yours.
4	✔	Just because I have a smaller body doesn't mean everything in life is inconvenient, but there are times when I feel frustrated. Choose: Such as? Hehe. Like the times when I dote on you. Sometimes I want to tousle your hair. Sometimes I want to give you a big hug. That's just two things on my ever-growing list. But my arms are too short, my hands are too small... I'm always left wondering what more I could do. So if you ever think I could be spoiling you more than I already am... Don't be afraid to speak your mind. I know how diligent and persevering you are. In my eyes, you are the best gift I could have ever asked for. Now then, how should I go about pampering you this time? Huh? You don't want my coddling? Then why did you take my chocolates on Valentine's Day!

Trick or Treat Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	(Captain). Did you see Asha anywhere? I'm looking to hand her some treats. This is for her to eat now, and this is for her stockpile. It won't be long before she runs out of candy to give to other children. What a disaster it'd be if I don't replenish her stock soon. I don't know if you realize how popular Asha is on Halloween. But it's actually quite a big deal. I wouldn't be surprised if she's being flooded as we speak. Won't you help me find her, (Captain)? How's this: if you can find her before me, I'll give you a nice big bag of candy.
2	✔	Happy Halloween! Are you having fun as well, (Captain)? I see, I'm glad to hear that. I have some treats for you too—here you go. Hehe. Halloween brings me much joy, seeing so many children with smiles on their faces. Tien dressed up together with the children from Stardust Town too. She looked lovely in her makeup, hehe. Usually, Tien's makeup is for intimidating her enemies, and she puts it on as a way of rejecting adults. It isn't something that's fun for her... It's unfortunate that she uses makeup for such a joyless reason. I wish that, someday, the world will be a place where every child can live comfortably in the way that he or she desires... I pray with all my heart for that day to come. But first, let's enjoy this Halloween season, shall we?
3	✔	My, my, what brings you here, (Captain)? You're giving me candy? Aw, what a precious child you are, splitting your treats with me. Haha... You think sharing candy is sweeter than the candy itself? How my heart swells... Thank you. Normally I'd tell you to enjoy it for yourself, but turning down your kind offer isn't very nice, now is it? Then how about this? Why don't we throw a big party with the family? It will be like a tea party, and everyone can bring their favorite snacks. Of course Feower, Tien, and everyone from Stardust Town are also invited! Doesn't that sound fun? I couldn't have come up with this great idea were it not for you, (Captain). Okay, I need to begin making arrangements. In the meantime, why don't you go show off your cute costume some more, (Captain)?
4	✔	Eeek! (Captain), is that you? Oh dear, you gave me such a start! You're quite the talented prankster. Haha, I had no idea you were lying in wait for me. Did you plan this all out? Really? You went through that much setup? Elaborate traps seem to be your thing. Oh, no need to apologize, haha. I certainly haven't forgotten what day it is. I think Halloween is wonderful—it's a day where you needn't feel awkward for playing around like a youngster. And on that note, I dare you to play a variety of tricks on me! I always enjoy seeing what wiles you come up with, so please don't go easy on me.

Happy Holidays Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	(Captain). I've kept watch on you for a year now with these eyes of mine. So much has happened. You navigated through pain, grief, and joy, and came out a better person. I respect that very much. You deserve a proper reward. Please, tell me what you'd like for the holidays. You don't consider me your mother? Fair enough, but perhaps you can see me as an aunt. Why not the spend the day with your aunt—preferably as a child free of any worries.
2	✔	Oh, (Captain). You'd like to help me with carrying these? Thank you. What a kind child you are. Yes, these are presents for the children of Stardust Town. It's mostly a variety of playthings such as stuffed toys, wooden blocks, and airship models. I know they would prefer everyday items that they can use, but I believe it's important for them to have time to play too. You too, (Captain). As with Tien and Feower. They are only a little older, yet they always play the adult, spending their time worrying about the other children... It's wonderful that all of you care so much about others. Still... it's the holy night tonight. You should let yourself act your age sometimes too. Hm... After you help me transport these, why don't you come to my room? I shall treat you to something nice, as a mother would do for her child.
3	✔	Oh, have you come to help me deliver presents again this year, (Captain)? Such a sweet child. I will happily oblige. I happen to be picking out gifts right now. Why don't you help me with that? I could go with classic toys, but trends and fads can be as fickle as the wind. I'll defer to your better judgment, (Captain). Please do your best to help me so that I may help the children. Haha. Thank you for sparing your time. I'm happy you're taking this so seriously. And when we're done, I'll treat you to a delicious meal. You need to enjoy the holiday festivities too, after all. You'll let me spoil you this year, won't you? Happy holidays, (Captain).
4	✔	Thank you for inviting me to tonight's feast with the crew, (Captain). It was a perfect night filled with food and drink. It must have taken a lot of time and effort to prepare this banquet. You deserve more than a pat on the back. Oh, I know you've already received your gifts, but I'm not taking no for an answer. No single present is sufficient thanks for all you've done. Hm... May I sit on your bed? There we are. Rei sits down on the edge of (Captain)'s bed and pats her lap, beckoning the captain over. Come here. Let's take a quick break before we head over to the after-party. I'm not just thanking you for today. This is for an entire year's worth of endeavors as a captain and skyfarer. Besides, if you're not going to treat yourself to some fun from time to time, then it falls on me to make sure you're taken care of.

Family Gathering

When Rei shows up in Stardust Town, Feower doesn't hesitate to express his disgust of mafia. Rei explains to him that not all mafia are bad, that the Suo family has served to maintain order in the underbelly of the skies ever since the time of the War. Feower, however, remains unconvinced.

---

Upon resolution of the conflict with the Magasin crime family, the crew helps to restore the damage to Stardust Town caused by Mugen's rampage.

Rei leads a group into town while Tien, Feower, and Fif are hard at work.

Rei: Greetings. You look well.

Fif: Ah, it's Rei and Asha! I'm guessing those people behind you are also members of the Suo family?

Rei: That's right. I called upon some of the children who'd be able to lend a hand.

Asha: Some of them can draw structural blueprints, while others will provide construction materials. If you could please show them around.

Tien: Mm... Thank you. This'll be a big help.

Feower: Humph... Looking to rebuild the town in the Suo fashion already, huh?

Tien: Feower.

Feower: We might be under your protection now, but don't you even thinking of using our territory for profit.

Fif: Gah, there you go picking a fight again, Feower... Can't you be nice to people who are just trying to help!

Feower: Help, my ass. Who knows what they're really here for.

Feower: Go ahead and try stirring something up in our town. I'll slaughter every last one of you—that's a promise.

Tien: Feower!

Fif: Blegh! Why does he always have to be such a poopy-head!

Rei: Chalk it up to puberty. He must be in the very midst of it, given how rebellious he's acting.

Asha: Mama...

Rei: Oh, come now, Asha. Surely you remember how it was with yourself.

Asha: I don't remember mine lasting too long... Feower's might be more severe because of his upbringing.

Asha: Hm?

Stardust Children: Hrm...

Rei: What is it?

Tien: Feower, wait. You have to apologize.

Feower: Me? To who? And why? I haven't done anything wrong.

Tien: Feower...

Feower: For starters, how is it you're okay with this? They're mafia.

Tien: Definitely not your run-of-the-mill mafia. I mean, here they are helping us out.

Feower: No! Don't tell me you've already forgotten what that wretch made me do to you!

Tien: ...

Feower: Well? Would you be willing to lend us your strength?

Rei: Hmm...

Lyria: ...!
This power...

Vyrn: Wha... It's hard to... breathe...

Feower: Ngh!

Rei's eyes now fully open, she gives her full attention to Feower, as if peering into his soul.

Rei: Ready for any hardships, your sister says... How do I know it's not just empty talk?

Rei: But even if you manage to deceive others with your false words, you'll soon reach your limit. Then it'll all be pointless...

Rei: So at the very least, allow me to test your resolve...

Feower: Urgh!

Tien: Feower!

Feower: ...!

Vyrn: Whoa! Calm down, Stabby!

Feower: Rei... Damn you!

Tien: She was only testing us.

Feower: Like I give a damn! Those mafia turds can't be trusted! Just you watch—they'll show their true colors soon enough!

Tien: Feower...

Stardust Children: Waaah!

Tien: Huh?

Feower: Flippin' hell! How long did that take, huh?

Feower: ...

Tien: Haha...

Suo Member 1: Up, up, and away!

Stardust Child 1: Yeeeep! Ahaha! This is great! Can we do that again?

Suo Member 1: Haha... My arm's kind of numbed out...

Stardust Child 2: Over here, over here! Follow the sound of my clap!

Suo Member 2: Hey, wait up! Huff... Huff... You're too fast for me...

Fif: Slowpokes don't stand a chance, miss! Why don't you let me be it?

Asha: How pitiful to lose to a child. Maybe it's a sign you need more exercise in your daily routine.

Suo Member 2: Whoa now, can we not compare me to you—Rei's personal bodyguard? I'm just a plain ol' merchant.

Stardust Child 3: Hey, can we play house next? You're super cool, miss, so you can be my husband!

Asha: Wha! But I'm not anybody's husband...

Suo Member 2: Ahaha, this is where your acting skills come into play.

Rei: You should be up to the task if you've kept up your training, Asha.

Asha: Mama...

Feower: What did I just walk into...

Stardust Child 1: Oh, you're back! Feower, Tien, you should play with us!

Stardust Child 2: Our new friends are so much fun! It's such a blast hanging out with them!

Lyria: Teehee, why don't you two join them?

Feower: Psh, yeah right...

Feower: Why the hell would I wanna muck around with a bunch of mafia pipsqueaks...

Asha: Feower. Do you even know what "mafia" truly means?

Feower: Damn right I do. Every last one of you flaming dirtbags is a living turd bathed in sewage waste and then left out to dry.

Asha: Hrm, mafia can be broadly categorized into two types.

Feower: Like I said—

Asha: Are you going to use your less-than-fortunate upbringing to shun the opportunity to learn new things?

Feower: Rgh...

Asha: The mafia first came about during the turmoil of the post-War era. Now, about there being two types...

Asha: There's the criminal organization type, like the Magasin family, that abuses power and authority to have things their way.

Asha: And then there's the vigilante type, which is sworn to protect people and their property from harm.

Vyrn: I'm guessing the Suo family's...

Asha: The latter, of course. It all started out with the orphans Mama saved during the War.

Asha: They studied and trained under her, going on to become masters of various trades and forming the cornerstone of the Suo family.

Asha: We now protect the skies from behind the scenes, thwarting attempts to harm innocent people any chance they get.

Fif: Bwuh? That sounds a lot like the Crew of Enforcers...

Lyria: Yeah, it's like they're the Enforcers of the mafia world!

Vyrn: Hrm... So basically, you're the good guys...

Rei: Good guys, huh? I wish I could say "yes" with a straight face.

Asha: If nothing else, we would never prey on the weak the way the Magasin family does.

Vyrn: Wait a sec... Something doesn't add up...

Vyrn: You said Rei saved those orphans during the "War," as in the big one that happened 2,000 years ago, right?

1. Nah, she meant Rei's ancestor—obviously.
2. So how old is Rei exactly?

Choose: Nah, she meant Rei's ancestor—obviously.

Asha: Nuh-uh. There is and always has been only one true Mama for the Suo family.

Fif: You mean...

Fif: Rei's been alive since the time of the War?

Go to "Continue 1"

Choose: So how old is Rei exactly?

Rei: How crude to ask a lady for her age.

Lyria: Ah, sorry... We were just so surprised...

Rei: Haha, I only jest. But it is something you may want to keep in mind for future reference.

Rei: And yes, it's true that I've been around since the time of the War.

Continue 1

Vyrn: You've gotta be kidding! I don't know any Harvin who can live that long!

Lyria: Is it the power of a primal beast? Hm, but I don't sense that from you...

Rei: Hehe, every woman has a secret or two they'd like to keep. Anyone ever tell you it's not nice to pry?

Vyrn: Gosh darn it, I really wanted to know...

Feower: So what, who cares?
She's this ancient granny? She was protecting the skies all this time?

Feower: No one asked for it, you damn patronizing shrew.

Rei: ...

Feower: You can control people just by looking at them, a power greater than that of any Eternal's.

Feower: Who knows what kinda crap you pulled behind closed doors.

Asha: I suspect you're in need of some discipline.

Rei: Asha.

Asha: But, Mama... He dares to accuse you of misusing your powers...

Rei: Asha.

Asha: Yes...

Asha: My apologies...

Rei: It's okay. Let's just leave it at that.

Tien: ...?

Rei: That's enough for the fun and games. I should get back to checking on the town's reconstruction.

Rei: Asha, Tien, Feower. Will you join me?

Tien: Mm, naturally. I'll gladly explain anything about the town if you'll let me know what sort of information you need.

Lyria: We should help too, (Captain)!

Vyrn: Right on! Let's go, Feower!

Feower: Humph... I'm not feeling it, but I suppose I can tag along.

Feower: To keep a watch on them, that is.

Fif: Blah, there you go again! Don't say I didn't warn you if no one wants to talk to you ever again!

Rei: Hehe, quite lively, isn't it? I'm looking forward to this.

Asha: ...

Noticing the displeasure on Asha's face, Rei whispers in her ear.

Rei: It was very sweet of you to try to protect me back there.

Rei: But these children don't need to know... For the time being, at least.

Asha: ...

Rei: Haha, it's to be expected from a boy undergoing his rebellious phase.

Rei: Really, there's nothing to worry about. Besides, isn't it a mother's duty to ensure that her children can eventually stand on their own two feet?

Rei gives Feower, who is facing the other way, a fond look.

Perhaps her loving gaze will one day lead Feower toward a more noble path in life.

Eternal Mother

During Anre and Eahta's visit to the Suo family's estate, Eahta and Rei have a chat about the true purpose of power. Rei explains that she uses hers to bring about a better future for the children of the skies.

---

Some time after the disturbances kicked up by Nehan and Mugen come to a close, the Suo family receives a visitor.

It is Anre of the Eternals. He starts off by bowing his head in apology.

Anre: I'm really sorry for all the trouble we caused, Rei.

Rei: ...

Anre: I knew full well how much you despise the Astrals and the Seven Luminary Knights, and yet...

Rei: I don't mind, Anre. I was more than satisfied with the explanation you gave me.

Rei: Besides, I had been concerned about Stardust Town for quite some time now.

Rei: I took a back-seat approach so as to not exacerbate matters any further.

Rei: It was ultimately your decision to involve me that saved so many innocent children. For that, I thank you, Anre.

Anre: Haha, you're much too kind. Honestly, I should be the one thanking you.

Anre: Somehow I feel as if my words aren't enough... If only there were some other way to express my gratitude...

Rei: Ahaha. Really, I'm telling you it's okay.

Rei: But if you insist, I wouldn't mind taking that mustache off of you.

Rei: The mustached look just doesn't suit you... You're so much more handsome without it.

Anre: Ohoho... You flatter me.

Rei: You're going to have to let me trim it sometime. But more importantly now...

Eahta: ...

Rei: Zanba... No, I believe you go by Eahta now? What brings you here?

Anre: Ah, yes. He—

Eahta: You interest me.

Rei: Oh, is that so? I didn't take you to be the type to express interest in others.

Rei: But perhaps the experience of raising a child has changed you.

Eahta: O everlasting one for whom time holds no meaning.

Rei: That's quite the long title.

Eahta: What is your path in life?

Rei: My path?

Eahta simply nods, waiting for her to continue.

Rei gives it some thought, then looks straight into Eahta's eyes.

Rei: ...

Rei: Hm, now I see the intent behind your question.

Rei: You have the might to possibly conquer the heavens themselves, yet you use it purely for yourself—constantly striving to reach the lofty pinnacle of true strength.

Rei: And you're wondering how I, possessing similarly great power, choose to use my gift.

Eahta: Indeed.

Rei: You could have said that more plainly, you know.

Eahta: Words are but autumn leaves murmuring in the wind. Utter them too heedlessly, and they will wither away into the silence of the night.

Rei: Haha, are you some kind of poet? What an interesting child you are. Fine, I'll tell you.

Rei: In all my years, I've only ever used my power for the purpose of a singular goal.

Rei: To rid the world of the sheer chaos that plagues it and lead it toward a more righteous path. It is what I live for.

Eahta: What is it that you consider righteous?

Rei: The skies have been tainted ever since the time of the War. We have never truly recovered.

Rei: The first step in realizing my goal is to ensure that people of all walks of life across every island learn to respect each other.

Rei: But for that to happen, education is paramount. And education cannot happen unless more basic needs like food, clothing, and shelter are being met.

Rei: Until I realize this ideal, however long it takes...

Rei: I may very well use my powers in violent ways. Provided that doing so will bring us closer to the utopia I envision, I won't show any mercy.

Rei: If the need should arise, I wouldn't be averse to using the relics of the Astrals either.

Anre: ...

Eahta: So you wish to protect our glorious world itself, I see.

Rei: The sky is essentially a glass of water, with some of the glass shards having chipped and fallen inside.

Rei: Attempting to remove those shards would likely cause the water to overflow.

Rei: But even with those shards, it remains a beautiful container nonetheless. I never tire of looking at it. I exercise due caution not to fracture the glass, of course.

Rei: So that we can have a world where children no longer have to suffer and cry.

Anre: You haven't changed in the slightest. No matter how years and months pass, you continue to stay your course.

Eahta: I see that the passage of time has not dampened your strength of heart and soul.

Eahta: Most magnificent indeed.

Rei: I hope that answers your question.

Eahta: A meaningful exchange it was. Thank you.

Anre: I'll be going too. I'm glad we got to meet today. Till next time.

Rei: Don't forget what I said about your mustache, okay?

Anre: Ahaha, I'll sleep on it...

Rei: Heh, I'm looking forward to seeing you clean-shaven. Stay safe, Anre.

Rei: Hm...

Rei: Of course there's no reason for me to stop...

Rei: I'm shouldering the burden of my entire clan after all.

Rei: I will lead my children to a better future, as a mother should.

In the now empty room, Rei reminds herself why it is she does what she does, renewing her conviction.

Eternal Mother: Scene 2

One day, Rei and Asha visit a grandma in her home. This grandma is the descendant of a child that Rei saved long ago, and who once tended to Rei the way Asha now does. ReiIn-game mistranslation; should instead be Asha. watches with curiosity at their heartfelt exchange.

---

Rei and Asha call on an elderly citizen in her home one day.

A mere glimpse of Rei at the doorway sparks immense joy in this grandma, who readily welcomes in her visitors.

Grandma Gemma: It's been so long, Mama. When was the last time I saw you...

Grandma Gemma: I can hardly remember...

Rei: It was one year ago, on this very day.

Rei: I'm sorry I couldn't drop by more often... You must have felt so lonely.

Grandma Gemma: No, no, not at all! I consider myself blessed to even be able to see you once a year, Mama.

Grandma Gemma: If only I could get around the way I did in my prime, I'd visit you every day... I hate to admit it, but there's no beating old age.

Rei: ...

Rei: I came with a gift for you today. Asha, if you would take it out.

Asha: Yes, Mama.
This is for you, ma'am.

As per Rei's orders, Asha hands the elderly lady a bouquet of blue flowers.

Grandma Gemma: How kind of you, miss. I guess you're one of my little sisters in the family.

Asha: That's right. It's a pleasure to meet you.

Grandma Gemma: My, aren't these golden dewdrops?

Grandma Gemma: After all this time, you remembered my favorite flowers...

Rei: No loving mother would ever forget her child's favorite things.

Grandma Gemma: "Child"? What child speaks with such a gravelly voice and has this many wrinkles?

Rei: No matter how much your physical appearance changes, no matter how many years pass by, there's one thing that'll remain constant.

Rei: The fact that you'll always be my precious little child.

Grandma Gemma: Mama...

Grandma Gemma: I wouldn't even be here today if you didn't save my ancestor during the time of the War...

Rei: Both your ancestor and you have done so much to help me. I'm the one who should be grateful.

Grandma Gemma: Thank you, Mama... So much time has passed since I retired...

Grandma Gemma: I'm afraid I'm not of much use anymore, but I hope you'll take up the mantle and be a good girl for Mama.

Asha: Of course, Sister. I certainly will...

Grandma Gemma: Haha. Quite the serious one, aren't you? It's okay to let loose sometimes.

Asha: You are many years my senior, Sister. I wouldn't want to be rude.

Rei: Being far too earnest is your one fault, Asha.

Grandma Gemma: My, how rare of you to tease a child, Mama. I can already tell she's your favorite. You're lucky to have a good one by your side.

Grandma Gemma: I'm almost jealous. I wish you would've teased me a bit more back in the day.

Rei: What a thing to say! I'll tease you all you want right this second if you'd like.

Grandma Gemma: Oh, really? Then...

Grandma Gemma: Maybe we can put it off till next time.

Rei: ...

Rei: Sounds good to me.

Asha: ...?

Grandma Gemma: Hey, Mama? Is it okay if I hold your hands?

Rei: I've quite spoiled you, haven't I. Here you go.

Grandma Gemma: Haha. Your hands are as warm, beautiful, and gentle as ever, Mama...

Grandma Gemma: I can't count the number of times you've saved me with these hands...

Rei: ...

Grandma Gemma: I hope you'll continue to give light to children as you did for me.

Rei: Rest assured, that was always the plan.

Grandma Gemma: Glad to hear it, Mama.

Grandma Gemma: As much as I'd love to chat with you all day, it wouldn't be fair to others to have you all for myself.

Grandma Gemma: Thanks again for the visit, Mama. I love you.

Rei: I love you too... my dear child.

As Rei and Asha leave the house...

The grandma waves goodbye with a genuine smile.

Grandma Gemma: I'll be going soon.

Rei: Have a safe trip.

Asha: ...?

Eternal Mother: Scene 3

Rei dreams of a memory from her time during the War. Her entire clan sacrificed themselves so that Rei, with their combined power and life spans, would be able to survive and carry on the torch of the clan. For centuries now, she's been saving children all over the skies and serving as their mother.

---

Some time after the meeting with the grandma...

Rei dreams of a fond yet loathsome memory from long ago.

Rei: (A dream of the War again... As much as I hate it, this memory's also very nostalgic...)

Rei: (The Astrals subjugated those with great power in the skies in an attempt to strengthen their reign...)

Rei: (They came after us too, seeking to utilize the magical power in our eyes...)

As the War escalated, Rei's clan began to fear the possibility of being enslaved by the Astrals and becoming a threat to the skies they'd always called home.

They placed their bets on Rei, transferring all their power to her to avoid the worst possible outcome.

Rei: ...

Rei Clansperson 1: Our power is far too valuable to be lost to the skies forever...

Rei Clansperson 1: Yet at the same time, our naturally delicate bodies are not the most fit for fighting.

Rei Clansperson 1: Before the Astrals can capture us to further rain destruction upon all, we're going to transfer our collective power and life spans unto you.

Rei Clansperson 2: Please use those kind, gentle hands of yours for the sake of the skies... to save, protect, and guide its children to a brighter future...

Rei: I will... I promise it!

And thus Rei inherits the power and life spans of her fellow clanspeople. She goes on to defeat innumerable Astrals and save countless war orphans, assisting many wounded along the way.

The children who find grace under Rei's care, wanting to make their foster mother's dream a reality, eventually form the Suo family.

These children would entrust their ardent wish to their children before passing on and leaving Rei behind, a tradition that has continued to present day.

No matter how many generations passed, Rei would love every child equally, hoping that they could pursue a nobler world together.

This would continue on for decades, centuries, and even millennia...

So that Rei can fulfill her clan's dying wish, and so that the lost children of the skies have a place to call home.

Rei: (...)

Rei: (Raising children is but a mother's duty. It shouldn't sadden me.)

Rei: (Nor should seeing them pass...)

Rei: (For now and evermore, even should my extended life span come to its natural end one day...)

Rei: (I'll continue to fulfill my duty as a mother...)

Rei: (...)

Eternal Mother: Scene 4

Rei and Asha attend the funeral of the grandma they visited days earlier. Asha notices the sadness in Rei's eyes and apologizes for having to upset her in the very same manner some day. The two share a touching moment.

---

A few days have passed.

The entire Suo family is attending the funeral of the elderly grandma Rei visited only days prior.

Others begin taking off at the ceremony's end, but Rei and Asha remain standing still.

Rei: ...

Asha: ...

Asha: This was really sudden.

Rei: It was.

Asha: Mama... Did you already know she didn't have long?

Rei: ...

Asha: I see... So that's what you two meant when—

???: Excuse me...

Asha: You're...

Rei: Oh, you're her son. My, how you've grown.

Grandma's Child: Mama... Long time no see.

Rei: Haha, you're technically not my child. It's okay if you'd rather not call me that.

Grandma's Child: No, you've helped me time and again, Mama. Please, I insist.

Grandma's Child: Thank you for coming to the funeral. I'm sure my mother's happy you're here, wherever she might be right now.

Grandma's Child: There's just one thing I wanted to give you... It was my mother's final wish to make sure you got this actually...

Rei: Hm, what could that be?

The grandma's child hands Rei a small box.

Grandma's Child: I have a family gathering to get to, so I'll take my leave now... Till next time, Mama.

Rei: See you later. And please give your family my regards.

Rei opens the box handed to her.

Inside is a golden dewdrop, the grandma's favorite flower.

For just a split second, Rei seems to hear the voice of the departed grandma.

Grandma Gemma: Wherever I end up, my heart's always with you, Mama.

Rei: ...

Rei: No matter how old you get, you just can't leave your mama, can you... I really have spoiled you.

Rei: Like I said, there's nothing to worry about.

Rei: It's a mother's job to make sure her children eventually stand on their own two feet...

Asha: Mama...

Asha: I hate to say it, but one day I'm going to bring you just as much sadness—

Rei: Bad Asha.

Asha: Ouch...

Rei: It's nothing to concern yourself over. I'm fine, really.

Asha: But...

Rei: Haha, ever the serious Asha. Just like a certain someone I used to know.

Rei: I still have a long way to go with you and the others...

Rei brings Asha in closer and gently brushes her hair.

Taking in the warmth rushing through her hand, Rei vows in her heart to lead Asha through a fulfilling life.
