Summer's Brilliant Treasure
(Captain) and company are discussing how to spend their time in Auguste when a listless Payila appears. After witnessing (Captain) and the others talking excitedly about their summer vacation, Payila had decided to accompany them on their trip this year. Seeing Payila's weakness to the outdoor heat, the crew comes up with an idea to take her to a new beach house.
Just before landing at Auguste, (Captain) and company are gathered on the deck of the Grandcypher.
They are in the middle of an important discussion preceding their annual vacation, in which they must decide how they want to enjoy this year's summer.
Vyrn: We gotta hit the beach for sure!
Lyria: That's right! Speaking of the beach, I'd like to visit the new beach house that just opened!
Vyrn: Ooh, good idea! What about you, (Captain)?
Choose: I want some good food!
Lyria: Perfect! I hear the beach house is famous for their dishes!
Choose: It'll be nice to relax.
Lyria: In that case, I hear the new beach house has an area in the back where you can take it easy!
Vyrn: It's nice that they've got somethin' like that. We could chow down on some Auguste specialties there!

Vyrn: Hm? Didja hear somethin'...
Payila: Hnnng...
Lyria: P-Payila!
Vyrn: Hey, you okay? You look like you're about to pass out!
Noticing Payila on the deck with them, (Captain) rushes over to hold her up. The Divine General is limp as her lips move almost inaudibly.
Payila: Too...
Vyrn: Huh?
Payila: Too hot.
Payila: It's too hot... outside in the summer!
Payila: Hng...
Lyria: A-are you all right? Don't push yourself!
Vyrn: If it's too hot for ya... why'd you come out here to the deck?
Vyrn: It's cooler inside, and you're always in your room anyway.
Payila: No... I must see it for myself. After all, it's only during this season...
Payila: That I get to see that bright sparkle of joy as you bathe in the delight of your vacation!
Back when summer had only just begun, Payila had witnessed something aboard the Grandcypher.
Payila: That wretched sun... Always shining so bright. Does it mean to melt me when summer has barely even arrived?
Payila: Going outside in this sort of season is out of the question. I've no choice but to stay indoors where it's cool and spend the time sorting through my treasures.
Payila: "An uncut gem does not sparkle." Hehe, this is the perfect opportunity to take out my forgotten treasures and give them a polish... Hm?
Vyrn: Hey! Once we're done with our job at Auguste, let's have a look around like we usually do!
Lyria: I'd love to do some shopping too! I heard from Meg that there's a really good restaurant.
Vyrn: Oh yeah, Meg definitely knows her stuff. Let's add that to our list...
Payila: Hehe. As always, they give off a brilliant shine.
A smile plays on her lips as Payila watches (Captain) and the others happily planning for their time off.
Payila: If I remember correctly, it's customary for (Captain)'s crew to vacation at Auguste every summer.
Payila: Seeing them so excited... I must admit, I'm a little envious.
Payila: Hm. Perhaps I will accompany them on their vacation this year.
Univa: With all due respect, Payila, it is to my knowledge that Auguste will soon be reaching the peak of summer.
Payila: Yes, and what of it?
Univa: You very much disliked going outside at the Dragon Temple, especially during the summer.
Univa: The heat in Auguste is particularly severe. I'm not certain you would be able to withstand being outside in the first place...
Payila: Goodness... Did you come just to say that to me? I'm aware of that much.
Payila: Honestly, it's not that I detest everything that has to do with summer.
Payila: It's true that I despise going out when it's hot, but Auguste is known to be a resort, is it not? I'm curious, actually.
Univa: ...
Payila: Hehe. All the more so considering the beach back in Dharma was rather nice.
Payila: More importantly, it will be precious time spent with (Captain) and the others. No doubt the memories made there will become new treasures.
Payila: It's... too hot... Everything's hot...
Vyrn: I-is it that bad?
Payila: How can this be... I don't recall it being so hot in Dharma!
Payila: No... I'm at my limit. Come here, (Captain)... Let me see your face...
Choose: It's gonna get even hotter.
Payila: Wha! Even hotter... than now?
Payila: I-I won't be able to stand it. Come here, (Captain)... Let me see your face...

Payila: Ah... So beautiful... The sparkle in your eyes is simply dazzling...
Payila: More beautiful than the blue of these skies... Hehe... Hehehe...
Vyrn: She's gone completely bonkers from the heat... Should we take her back to her room, (Captain)?
Payila: No.
Payila: That sparkle of yours is something I can only see now... A treasure to be appreciated in this very moment.
Payila: I will not let anyone... interfere... Hng...
Payila: So hot...
Vyrn: You can't convince her otherwise when it comes to treasure...
Payila: I'm going to ask you once more. Will you become my treasure?
Payila: Mind you that no one is leaving until I see every person nodding.
Lyria: I was so surprised back then...
Vyrn: Yeah... Who'd have thought that she'd be so persistent?
Lyria: It'd be great if Payila could come with us on our vacation in Auguste...
Vyrn: I dunno... You sure she's not gonna melt into a puddle at the beach?
Lyria: The new beach house I mentioned earlier might be the perfect solution.
Lyria: It's got both delicious food and a resting area, so there's plenty to enjoy even if you're tired!
Lyria: What do you think, Payila? Would you like to come to the beach with us?
Payila: The... beach?
Vyrn: We didn't even hafta wait for the beach. She's already melted.
Payila: No matter where you go... you must bring me...
Payila: I'm willing to go anywhere... to see that sparkle... Hehehe, hehe...
As Payila laughs breathlessly, (Captain) gives her a wry smile before hoisting her up.
Thus the crew set sail for the summer seas, their melted friend in tow.
