I'm Your Grandma from Today On
Some time after the Blue Knight's investiture ceremony, Octavia visits the docked Grandcypher to chat with the crew. The Green Knight is moved to tears upon hearing the young captain's heartrending life story and declares herself the grandma to the crew.
One evening, in the Grandcypher's common area...
A female Erune donning strange gear weeps softly as she listens to (Captain)'s life story.
Octavia: Pffght! I'm so sorry... Truly!
Octavia: To think our little Tau'luk and his forefathers would cause such trouble to you and your family...
Octavia: Ever since he was a little boy... I taught him to treasure his family above all else.
Octavia: Yet, he dared attack another's family, even going so far as to kidnap a baby...
Octavia: There's no apology too great for such a grave crime... At the very least, I'd like to offer you my life!
Octavia falls to her knees and points a small blade toward her stomach, causing (Captain) and the others to panic.
Lyria: P-please stop, Octavia!
Octavia: Spare me no mercy! A child's wrongdoings are the responsibility of the parent!
Octavia: A grandma though I may be, that is not an excuse to shirk my duty!
Vyrn: You're the one causin' a scene! If you die now, that's just more work for us!
Vyrn: Sure, some of the stuff he did was super evil, but it was all to defeat the Otherworld—we get that.
Octavia: I was aware that he had been acting brashly under the guise of fighting off the Otherworld.
Octavia: However, I never assumed his recent secretive behavior would result in this...
Vyrn: (Recent? Didn't Pops set out on his journey like thirty years ago?)
Octavia: If I hadn't solely focused on my machines, perhaps I could've paid more attention to the other skydoms and prevented this tragedy...
Octavia: I must atone for my crimes!
Lyria: Octavia! We understand how you feel now!
Vyrn: Dammit, how'd things get like this...
In the Kahlesgrande Skydom, some time after the Blue Knight's investiture ceremony...
One evening, a lone woman approaches the docked Grandcypher.
Octavia: Hark! Is (Captain) present?
Vyrn: Oh, um... You're the real Octavia, right? Why the sudden visit?
Octavia: No particular reason. I simply saw a familiar airship and wished to speak once more to those aboard.
Octavia: We hardly had the liberty to chat during the Blue Knight's investiture ceremony, given the situation at that time.
Lyria: So you made some time to come see us?
Octavia: Precisely. That being said...
Octavia: I am Octavia, the Green Knight. Our encounter was no mere coincidence—as such, I believe it's in our best interests to get along.
An incredibly formidable figure, Octavia serves as the Green Knight of the Seven Luminary Knights.
Having replaced her limbs, left eye, and a portion of her internal organs with self-made replicas, she has lived for over two millennia...
After converting her armor into a semiautonomous machine, she possesses the unique ability of remote operation.
However, during the events of the Blue Knight's investiture ceremony, her armor is destroyed. As a result...
Octavia: It's been a while since I last left Amahtgrande, and I wanted to take care of some business.
Octavia: At first, it was quite a bother, but now that I've met up with you all, I realize my efforts weren't for naught.
Octavia: You were personally acknowledged by Tau'luk, (Captain)—and for that reason, I wish to hear more about the circumstances that led to your journey.
(Captain) happily agrees, recounting the events of the crew's adventures thus far.
Octavia: Sniffle... What an arduous journey for someone so young...
Moved by the captain's story, Octavia pulls out a handkerchief and blows her nose into it—after which she finally calms down.
Octavia: As fascinated as you were with traveling, I'm sure you had moments of loneliness as well, no?
Choose: Actually, I've been having a blast.
Vyrn: We've been with ya ever since we met in Zinkenstill...
Vyrn: And we've made tons of friends since!
Octavia: Yes, I can relate. You have my sympathy...
Lyria: But (Captain)'s got us now! Which means there's no reason to feel lonely anymore!

Octavia: How courageous of you... Putting on a brave face so as not to cause needless worry...
Vyrn: Huh? That's not—
Octavia: Very well! I agree to lend you my assistance.
Octavia: I'll need this and that... Preparations are in due order, so allow me to take my leave for today.
Octavia: I'll be back tomorrow. Don't forget to dress warmly before going to bed tonight!
Octavia bids the crew farewell, then swiftly departs from the Grandcypher.
Vyrn: What's up with her...
Lyria: No idea... But she seems nice!
The following day, Octavia boards the airship carrying several wrapped bundles of cloth.
Octavia: One, two, three... Excellent. My belongings are all accounted for.
Lyria: Octavia! What's with the huge pile of stuff around you?
Octavia: Ah... I'm back, Lyria. Have you eaten lunch yet?
Octavia: Starting today, I intend on residing here aboard the Grandcypher until further notice.
Vyrn: O-oh... I mean, I guess we're okay with that, but... why?
Octavia: From today onward, I am (Captain)'s grandma!
Octavia: There's no need to hold back. Think of me as your real family and rely on me as much as you like!
Before the crew could even respond to Octavia's odd declaration, she hurries off into the kitchen.
