Whatever It Takes!
(Captain) and company are about to help an elderly woman with her heavy bag, but a Harvin girl beats them to it. She turns out to be Bridgette, a new member of the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights, and this inexperienced fighter joins the crew after seeing them in action.
After finishing a mission, (Captain) and company are returning to their airship.
On the way there, they come across an old woman carrying a very heavy-looking bag.
Lyria: (Captain), why don't we help her out with that?
Vyrn: Huh? Looks like we won't have to.
Lyria is at first puzzled, but then she looks back at the old woman and sees a small girl approaching her.
???: Madam! Madam! If you require assistance, I'd be more than willing to help you with your luggage!
Old Woman: Oh, thank you, kind stranger... Huh? Why, you're still such a little thing!
Old Woman: You sound so grown-up that I really expected someone a bit older.
???: That's kind of you to say, but my size is actually due to the fact that I'm a Harvin!
Old Woman: Thank you for the concern, but I should be fine. I really couldn't ask someone so small to carry such a heavy bag.
???: Worry not! Carrying that is really no trouble at all, so please let me help you!
???: I'm well aware of my limits! And your bag is well within my capabilities!
The girl proudly takes the bag from the old woman and puts everything she has into carrying it.
???: Heave-ho, here I go!
Heave-ho, here I go!
Heave-ho, here I go!
Old Woman: Well, I never... Hee-hee. Thank you kindly, little stranger.
Lyria: Wow, what a kind girl!
Vyrn: Yeah! It looks like the old woman's bag is in good hands.
???: Eek!
Just as the crew members turn to leave, they hear the girl scream.
Vyrn: What was that? Did something happen?
The crew hurries back and finds a gang of armed ruffians standing before the two women.
Ruffian 1: Ha-ha! We'll be taking that big ol' sack of goodies if you don't mind!
Ruffian 2: Heh-heh... Hand it over, and we might just spare your lives!
???: Ugh...
Old Woman: Little miss, save yourself. I'll be fine...
Lyria: Oh no! (Captain), we have to help them!
Just as (Captain) nods in agreement and dashes toward the group, the Harvin shouts.
???: Absolutely not! I refuse! I shall not leave you alone with these curs!
Ruffian 2: Huh? Are you seriously gonna try to fight us?
Ruffian 1: Heh-heh... That's quite a sexy voice you've got, but you're still nothing but a little runt. Come back when you've grown up a bit.
Ruffian 2: Ha-ha! Right! Now hurry up and give us the bag! Just try and stop us, little runt!
???: I'm afraid I can't do that either! I don't think there's any way I could defeat you two!
Ruffian 1: Huh?
???: But I can't leave this poor old woman alone, nor can I allow you to steal her possessions.
???: It goes against my very nature! Madam, run! I'll fend off these fiends long enough for you to escape!
Old Woman: Oh... You'd do that for me?
Ruffian 1: Well, if you really wanna get crushed that bad, we'll help you out! Heh-heh!
Ruffian: Oof!
Without wasting another moment, (Captain) leaps into the fray and strikes at the ruffians to protect the girl.
Vyrn: Ha-ha! I like your moxie, Miss Bowl Cut! But we'll take it from here!
(Captain) makes quick work of the ruffians.
???: Wow! Amazing! Truly amazing!
The crew delivers the ruffians to the authorities and then makes sure the old woman gets to where she was going.
???: You were most helpful! Thank you so much!
Vyrn: Heh-heh. Don't mention it! You showed some serious guts back there! I could hardly believe it!
???: People do often tell me that my heart's in the right noble place at least!
???: But I still have much to learn. Though I know what to do in my heart, my abilities often aren't enough to follow through.
???: I have a request I must ask of you travelers! I'd like you to train me!
Vyrn: What? That's a bit sudden, isn't it? We don't even know your name!
???: Apologies! I don't know what gets into me sometimes.
Bridgette: My name is Bridgette, and I'm a new recruit to the Lumiel Order of Holy Knights. It's a genuine pleasure to meet you.
The crew members introduce themselves and then allow Bridgette to continue.
Bridgette: I joined the order to be closer to my idol, Charlotta. One day I hope to be as impressive as her.
Bridgette: But I'm still so weak! So unready for this responsibility!
The somber knight explains that her weakness prevents her from fulfilling her chivalrous duties.
Vyrn: Okay, I think I get it now. But why ask (Captain) to help you train?
Lyria: Um... Couldn't you ask the other knights in your order to help you?
Bridgette: They keep mistaking me for a squire, and they rarely help me train.
Bridgette: So I started training by myself. But I can barely do ten push-ups...
Bridgette: That's why I need your help, (Captain)! I saw how strong you are in battle!
Bridgette: With you by my side, I just know I'll find the strength I need!
Bridgette: So I implore you to train me! Give me something easy enough for even me to do!
Vyrn: Hmm... It's not like we don't feel for you, but we're kinda in the middle of something.
Bridgette: I see... Then I'll temporarily leave the Order of Holy Knights and join you on your quest!
Lyria: What? W-will that be okay with your superiors?
Bridgette: Captain Charlotta is a generous and gracious person. She'll grant me permission for sure!
Bridgette: Besides, I'll carry the motto of the Order of Holy Knights with me wherever I go! Forever pure, forever righteous!
Bridgette: So don't worry about it! Just take me with you!
Vyrn: Hmm... What do you think, (Captain)?
Bridgette: Once I've grown sufficiently strong, I'll rejoin the order!
Bridgette: So it's not like I'll impose on you permanently! Will you please do this for me?
Vyrn: Right! We could never refuse someone who's so bent on this!
Bridgette: Really? Thank you so much! Words can't express what this means to me!
Choose: I'm not gonna go easy on you.
Bridgette: Really? I was sort of hoping you could offer me training at my level...
Bridgette: But wait... Does that mean I'm part of the crew? You're really going to train me?
(Captain) nods and smiles at Bridgette's surprise.
Bridgette: Yay! You've just made me the happiest Harvin in the skies! I can't thank you enough!

Bridgette: You know, I happen to love cleaning! I'll have your airship sparkling in no time!
Bridgette: I'm willing to do anything for the chance to train with you, (Captain)!
Vyrn: Glad to have you aboard!
And so the inexperienced yet plucky knight Bridgette joins the crew.
The crew returns to the airship with its enthusiastic new member.
