Background

Vane is currently the Vice Captain of the Order of the White Dragons, coming a long way from his debut as a common rank-and-file knight. Alongside his Captain and childhood friend, Lancelot, the pair work together to protect Feendrache.

Prior to reaching these heights, they had grown up as neighbours in the same remote village, away from the capital and its knights. Rural villages like their hometown lacked adequate protection from monsters, and during such an attack, Vane's parents were killed by wyverns. The incident led to Vane being taken in by his grandmother, and ultimately guided Lancelot down the path to becoming a knight. Despite their humble origins, both Lancelot and Vane managed to enter the Order of the Black Dragons, but it was Lancelot who became Vice Captain, and then Captain of the newly reorganised Order of the White Dragons. Vane remained a common knight, subject to being sent anywhere higher powers may please. This separation in rank caused Vane to believe that he has to catch up, to truly become worthy of standing by Lancelot's side, having always idolised him since they were children. His insecurities result in him diminishing his own accomplishments, and he hasn't considered that Lancelot had also looked up to him as a source of strength. Despite his fears, despite being smaller than Lancelot and a crybaby when he was younger, he had continued to strive towards his goals, and this tendency to always push himself, despite his circumstances, mutually inspires Lancelot.

Following the events of Defender's Oath, Vane climbs all the way up to Vice Captain rank, garnering fond subordinates who he treasures like family. He continues to better himself with Lancelot in mind, even going as far as to secretly train with Siegfried. Lancelot remains firm in reminding him of all the hard work he has done, and evidently Vane ends up protecting an injured Lancelot when they both become stranded on a mountain. Vane remains a cornerstone of kindness, when in Divergent Knighthoods, he takes two orphans, Arthur and Mordred, under his wing, and alongside Tornelio and Cruz, teaches this quartet he dubs Team Chickadee the meaning of chivalry. With every new experience, Vane begins to truly believe in himself and gain the confidence he needs to stop thinking he has to play catch up with Lancelot, and become a hero who will proudly protect others.

Personality

Vane is bright and friendly, willing to go the extra mile to help both friends and strangers alike. He insists on being a tour guide in Defender's Oath, despite his troubling sense of direction, unwilling to let people he had just met wander Feendrache alone. The events of Welcome to Bistro Feendrache occur precisely because he had pledged himself to help an old classmate, despite not having seen him in some time. He's popular with the elderly, a self proclaimed grandma's boy because they had looked after him as a child. His tendency for helping out also means he's proficient at household chores, frequently tidying Lancelot's messy room, and being an excellent cook. Vane follows his heart, believing in the need to protect others simply because he feels that is what is right.

However, underlying all his hard work, Vane struggles with insecurity, troubled with thoughts of inadequacy. Following his separation from Lancelot, Vane languishes in a lack of self confidence, unsure of his own strength, causing him to chase after Lancelot to consolidate his own position. He is acutely aware that he needed to struggle to get to where he is now as Vice Captain, but it is precisely this tendency to never give up that inspires others, including his own idol, Lancelot.

Relationships

Lancelot: childhood friend, neighbours from the same village, was his Captain when he was a common knight and has now climbed in rank to become his Vice Captain. Calls him "Lancey" out of habit, even though Lancelot is embarrassed by the nickname. They often work in tandem.
Siegfried: was a normal knight when he was Captain of the Order of the Black Dragons, now secretly trains with him.
Percival: though aware of him when he was Vice Captain of the Order of the Black Dragons, they first properly spoke to each other in Four Knights of a Fallen Land. Calls him "Percy", much to his chagrin.
Team Chickadee: their team leader during their entrance examinations in Divergent Knighthoods, continues to frequently train with them.

Events

Trivia

Vane has character banter with PercivalAny version, SiegfriedAny version, LancelotAny version, or Arthur when paired in battle.
- Vane recites the name of the Chain Burst with his fellow Dragon Knights. See Character Banter for more information.

Etymology

Given his fellow Knights Percival and Lancelot being based on Arthurian mythos, Vane might be intended to be Ywain from the same source, another Knight of the Round Table with a lion motif.
"Loewenbein: Gold", or Löwenbein: Gold, means "lion's leg: gold".

2	✔	Aw, man. It's that time of year again... Sucks being that guy that doesn't get anything. Yeah... Oh well! I'll just pretend this chocolate I made came from a girl! But first this box isn't cute enough. Let's spruce it up a bit. There we go. Now I need a backstory... Let's see. So I'm at the market when the shopkeeper's granddaughter walks in—No, wait, she doesn't have one. Uh, how about... The butcher's daughter... Gwah! What's wrong with you, (Captain)? Do you sneak up on people for fun? You came to give me something? Could this be... chocolate? I've been blessed again this year! Thanks a bunch! I'm not worthy. I'm going to make it my mission this year to make this chocolate count!
3	✔	(Captain), check it out! What do you think I found in Lancey's room when I was doing some housekeeping? Chocolates! From some girl! Man, I knew he was popular... Speaking as a childhood friend, good for him. Bet he's a pretty happy camper. Sigh... I wonder if I'll ever... Mmmph! What are you doing, (Captain)? Chomp, chomp... Did you just shove chocolates in my mouth? That's my Valentine's Day gift? For real? Oh geez, thanks! Yahoo! This is great! But, like, that really came out of nowhere. Why'd you do that all of a sud—Uh, (Captain)?
4	✔	Sigh... This is all my fault... Lancey always says that everybody messes up sometimes... But this was big... Oh, (Captain)! I look down? That's crazy talk... I... Ohm! Did you just stuff... chocolate into my mouth? Oh, right! It's Valentine's Day! Wait! Does that mean I'm your special someone? Wow... Thank you! That took me out of my rut... Oh crap... Now you know I was lying... Nothing slips past you... You wanna know what happened? If you wouldn't mind lending an ear, then... Yeah! I'd love that! This is kinda embarrassing, but...

1	✔	Hey... Got a sec? Th-this is a thank you gift... I worked really hard to make it. I don't know if you'll like it, but... please just take it!
2	✔	It sure was nice to get chocolates again this year... Scratch that, it was awesome. But what if everyone got the same chocolates? Then I might be giving the wrong impression with this present. That'd be awkward. Aaah... What to do? Maybe I'll have a chat with Lancey... Nah, I need to figure this out myself. Whoa! When'd you get here, Captain? Just now? Huh? Oh, this? Ahaha... It's just a White Day present! For who? Uh... Isn't it obvious? It's for you, (Captain). So, uh, please accept my feelings! Huh? What's so weird about that? Are you saying I'm weird? Man, do you know how hard I worked on this? You're awful, you know that... Ah well. How could I stay mad at you after seeing that smile of yours? All is forgiven! Hope you like it!
3	✔	All right you courageous kiddos of Feendrache, you all know that today is White Day. We're making (Captain) tasty desserts to say thanks for being such a good friend. What ingredients should we use? Chocolate chips... Nice! Strawberry jam and bananas... You guys are real chefs! That's good enough, I think. Okay, make sure to wash your hands before putting on your aprons. All set, everyone? Let's do it! Hey, (Captain). Thanks for always being awesome! You deserve more than words! Wha? Where are you kids going? We had a deal! Man, even you're laughing your head off, (Captain)... Hahaha, oh well. Huh? You want to have a conversation in the room? Gulp... What should I... So nervous... I'll, uh, brew up some tea. You go have a seat and relax, 'kay?

Look up at the sky and stretch your arms out to reach it! Like this! (Crap! I dropped the box of candies I had in my pocket!) Uh... This is for you... I just wanted to say thanks for the chocolate and for listening to my story on Valentine's Day! I am just a little older than you, so come to me when you need help! Heh heh... You feeling better? Even so, how about we go get some tea and talk it out?
5	✔	Happy White Day! Thanks for the amazing chocolates the other day! Um, I brought something in return today... ... I hope I can keep giving you something in return every year... And, well, it wouldn't be cool if I received such incredible gifts and never did anything for you in return! So... I'd like you to have this. I hope you like it. Heheh, that's good. Then you can definitely look forward to something from me every year from here on out, (Captain)!

Trick or Treat Cutscenes

1	✔	Trick or treat! When we were kids, Lancey would terrorize me with a toy pumpkin monster. I've hated pumpkins ever since.
2	✔	Whoa! (Captain)! (Captain)! You were in here? Got a sec? Over here! Realize you're busy, but mind helping me hand candy to all the happy ghosts out there? They're waiting out on the deck, so why don't you head out there and start handing out candy? Huh? What do I mean by ghosts? Oh! Right. Right. Sorry about that! Forgot to explain! I went to town for some shopping, and a bunch of kids in ghost costumes followed me to the ship! Sorry to pull you into this all of a sudden, but... Huh? You'll do it? Whoa! Hehe... Thanks a ton, (Captain)! I'll cook you some serious treats after this to make it up to you!
3	✔	Wahaha! This year I'm going to be a werewolf! This costume is my own handiwork. Here, take a look. The ears and tail came out nice and fluffy, don't you think? Hehe, not bad if I do say so myself! Tonight's costume party is gonna be fangtastic. Then I'll go around growling at people. Rawr! Whaddya mean my wolfman is too cutesy? Yeah, I guess the growl should be more of a howl instead. Huh? Howl right now? Hmm, not a bad idea to practice before the big show... Okay, fine. Just... don't laugh or anything, all right? I haven't done this before. ... Ah... A-awoo... Awooo, ow-ow awoooo... Hehe, how's that? That was actually pretty fun. You should totally join me!
4	✔	Ahaha! I went to the crew kids' Halloween party and they played so many tricks on me! Playful children really are the most fun! They made spiders and ghosts all out of paper and everything! Huh? Am I going to play a trick on them? Well... There were some really small ones in the group, so I can't really scare them without feeling bad... Oh! I have an idea! How about we put candy in everyone's hood! If we make sure the candy is wrapped properly, then their costumes won't get dirty. And who doesn't like getting extra sweets? Great! We're set! Now let's get us some treats!
5	✔	Hey, looks like you put together another great costume this year! Since you're lookin' so snazzy decked out like that, here's some candy from Sir Vane to you! You know, if you let this candy sit in your mouth without biting into it... Check it out! It becomes a different flavor! Heheh. I'm thinking of handing out this surprise candy to the kids as a trick this year! You wanna come too, (Captain)? All right, then let's get going!

Happy Holidays Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Happy holidays! I remember back when we were kids, Lancey and I would always try to catch Santa! We had a blast!
2	✔	Hmm... It's that time of the season. Eh, not like I had anything planned for today anyway. Let's see what Lancey's up to... Huh? Oh, hey, (Captain). Are you free right now? Good thing I bumped into you! All right, you get the pleasure of spending the day with me! Not! Yeah, like you'd want to hang out with me, hahaha! Whoa, you serious? You're fine with hanging out? Whoa, whoa, whoa. That's... awesome! Okay, so whaddaya wanna do? Go on, I wanna know! You want me to bake you a cake? Are you sure? Wahaha! You've got simple tastes! I'm gonna make the best cheesecake you've ever tasted in your life! Let's hurry and go buy what we need! Dress warmly and meet up on the deck!
3	✔	Wahaha! I've been asked to play Santa for the kids' winter party. Heh, seeing this red suit takes me back to when I was a wee lad. We were having a party with some other kids. Lancey and I came up with the idea to go dressed as Santas. But my suit got messed up because I wasn't paying attention while getting ready to go. Man, I busted out crying right there. So then Lancey gave up his suit for me to wear. He's got a heart of gold. To be fair, I wanted him to wear it, but he was stubborn like a mule. "You deserve to be the big man after all the work you put in" is what he said, but he was the one that was really looking forward to it... Makes my eyes well up! Whoops, sorry for dragging down the mood. Better get changed. If you're free, why don't you come to the party too?
4	✔	The kids just got a bunch of presents! Their eyes were so big as they showed me all the things they got. Just looking at all their happy faces was enough to make even me jump for joy! Ahaha! Just think, when I was a kid, I used to get presents from Santa too. Those were the days... Huh? What exactly did Santa give me? Let's see... The thing I loved best was the action figure that both me and Lancey had! "Now's our chance! Follow the captain!" Come to think of it, nothing's changed all that much. (Captain), what kind of presents did you get this year? Come on! Show me!
5	✔	Happy holidays! The cake's just about ready—see, it's getting all nice and fluffy. This reminds me of the time I baked a cake on a holy night like this, back when I was a kid. The cake just stayed flat in the oven the whole time... I was sad my grandma wouldn't be receiving any presents from Santa so I'd baked the cake for her, but it didn't work out the way I'd wanted it to and I ended up crying. But Grandma took that dry, crumbling cake and ate the whole thing, saying it was really good! She's the sweetest, bestest grandma in all of the skies! Whoops! Looks like the cake's done baking. Heheh, looks good, huh? Look forward to having it at the party!

I Give Them My All

After being promoted to vice-captain of the Order of the White Dragons, Vane begins to feel the heavy weight of responsibility. Finally realizing what his friend Lancelot went through, he seeks out special training from Siegfried so that he can help Lancelot in times of need.

(Captain) and company catch up with Vane on the way to the royal capital Feendrache.

On the way there, he starts to tell the crew about his position as vice-captain of the Order of the White Dragons.

Vane: You know, it's a different feeling entirely, being in command. Before it was just fight, fight, fight. But now...

Vane: Now I feel like everyone expects me to be strong not just for myself but for others as well.

Vyrn: Whoa! I don't totally follow you, but I see you're struggling as vice-captain. Never knew you could be bothered by those stuff.

Vane: Hey! Even I have the right to worry sometimes!

Vane: Wait... This feels really familiar.

Vyrn: It does? Maybe it's just deja vu?

Vane: I guess so.

Vane: Anyway, I think I sort of get what Lancey goes through. I've really grown as a person!

Vyrn: Say, you've been going on about being vice-captain for a while now, but where are your men?

Vane: What? Oh, I sent my subordinates back to the capital ahead of me.

Vyrn: Huh? Why didn't you all go together?

Vane: That, um... That's classified!

Vyrn: Hey! Now I just gotta know!

Vane: Fine, I'll tell you. But you mustn't share this with another soul, understand?

Vane: You see, I decided to ask Siegfried to give me some special training before I go back to the capital.

Vane starts to tell the tale of his session with Siegfried.

Vane: Hyaaa!

Siegfried: Humph...

Vane throws all of his weight behind his strike, but Siegfried deflects it easily.

Vane: Whoa!

Siegfried: Had enough?

Vane is having Siegfried train him in a village near the royal capital.

Vane: Huff... Huff... Siegfried, you're so fast... How?

Siegfried: Heh-heh... I'm really not. It's just that your attacks are a little too predictable.

Vane: What? They are? I had no idea.

Vane: I mean, I use plenty of feints.

Siegfried: Tch. Perhaps, but they're pointless if none of the follow-up attacks hit.

Vane: What?

Siegfried: Do I have to spell it out? That weapon of yours isn't just something to be waved about wildly. It's far more useful than that.

Vane: I know that! I mean, I remember Lancey saying something like that once.

Siegfried: Sigh... What I'm trying to say is that you have yet to truly master your weapon.

Vane's shoulders droop in dejection.

Vane: Oh... I feel so useless.

Vane: Maybe I should use a big ol' sword like yours.

In response to Vane's whining, Siegfried thrusts his great sword into the ground in front of him.

Siegfried: Hand me your weapon.

Vane: What?

Siegfried forcibly trades his weapon with the perplexed Vane.

Vane: Whoa! This sword's heavier than it looks!

Siegfried: Enough small talk already. En garde!

Vane: Okay! Let's do this!

Siegfried unleashes a flurry of attacks, toying with the obviously outmatched Vane.

Vane is harried by Siegfried's onslaught until he finally loses his weapon.

Siegfried: You see, Vane? This is how your weapon should be used.

Vane thus does even worse with Siegfried's sword than he did with his own weapon.

Vane lowers his head, and his shoulders start to shake.

Siegfried: Vane, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you—

Vane: That was amazing! Truly amazing! You really live up to your reputation, Siegfried!

Vane: Whoa! I had no idea my weapon was capable of moves like that! You've opened my eyes to a whole world of new possibilities!

Siegfried: (Sheesh... To think I was actually worried about you.)

Vane: Huh? Did you say something?

Siegfried: Heh-heh. No, not a word.

Siegfried, secretly relieved, continues with the lesson.

Siegfried: Vane, choosing a weapon is serious business. You have to carefully consider the nature of the wielder.

Siegfried: Take Lancelot for example. His style favors the agility of the dual blades. He uses them to harry his opponents with a series of rapid attacks.

Siegfried: My Dragonslayer Great Sword has similarly been designed to be heavier than normal. That's to make it work for me.

Vane: Yeah, Lancey's swords definitely suit his personality.

Vane: And here on your sword, there's this... Is it a foothold? It's certainly a unique weapon!

Siegfried: Do you get it now? This weapon was designed for me, so you must've found it difficult to use.

Vane: Yes! I much prefer my own halberd!

Vane takes his halberd back from Siegfried with reverence.

Siegfried: Heh-heh... Never forget that your weapon is an extension of yourself.

Siegfried: The more time you spend together, the more of its power you'll be able to unleash.

Vane: I get it now!

Siegfried: As well you should, Vane.

Vane: Huh?

Siegfried: Never mind. Well then, shall we have a short break?

Vane: Not yet! Just one more bout! Please, Siegfried!

Siegfried: Oh, so now you feel like training? Very well. Come at me whenever you're ready!

And so Vane's training session with Siegfried resumes with new enthusiasm.

Lyria: Wow, it's almost like one of those old tales about master and apprentice!

Vane: Right? I never even dreamed that I'd one day be training with the legendary Siegfried.

Vane: Ha-ha! I might as well be the luckiest vice-captain in all the skies!

Vyrn: Okay, so I get that you were busy with your secret training and all...

Vyrn: But what does that have to do with sending your men ahead of you?

Vane: Well, if they knew what I was up to, word might get to Lancey.

Vyrn: You don't want Lancelot to know?

Vane: No. I mean, it wouldn't be the end of the world, but I just don't want him to know.

Vane: Can you imagine how cool it would be if Lancey got into trouble and I came in and used my new skills to save him?

With a smile a mile wide, Vane puffs out his chest with pride.

Lyria: Hee-hee. I think you make a great vice-captain, Vane!

Vane: You think so? I'm really just trying to be more like Lancey.

You're getting there.
Forget that! Surpass him!

Choose: You're getting there.

Vane: Heh-heh! Thanks! Hearing you say that gives me a real boost, (Captain)!

Go to "Continue 1"

Choose: Forget that! Surpass him!

Vane: Yeah! I'll never catch up to him if I don't go for the gold!

Continue 1

Vane: All right! I'm going to continue my training and get even stronger! Then I can surprise Lancey with my new skills!

Vyrn: Heh-heh! That's the spirit! You can do it, Vane!

Vane continues to train hard every day to rise up to the level of his dear friend.

The crew happily cheers him on, though he's not always aware of it.

Make the Best of Today

Vane plans to send one of his subordinates home to celebrate his anniversary with his wife and advises the knight to prepare a nice dinner for her. (Captain) and company head into the forest with them to help them gather ingredients.

(Captain)'s crew reaches Feendrache and is strolling through town.

Lyria: Wait, isn't that Vane over there?

Lyria points at Vane, who's talking to one of his White Dragon Knight subordinates.

Vane: That's it for today's patrol, and there are no other tasks right now, so... All right! You're done for the day!

Dragon Knight: What? No, sir! I'll help you with your paperwork, Vice-Captain, sir!

Vane: Nah, it's fine! That's my job.

Vane: I mean, we already took care of everything that needed to get done today! Now go on! Get out of here and go home, buddy!

Dragon Knight: But it's too early, sir.

Vyrn: Hey, Vane! Whatcha up to?

Vane: Huh? Oh, hey! See, I'm trying to get this guy to go home, but he's giving me a real hard time.

Dragon Knight: With all due respect, Vice-Captain, sir, why are you trying to dismiss me so early? There's still plenty of work to do.

Vane: Your anniversary's today, right? Don't you think you should go home and be with your wife?

Dragon Knight: Y-you remembered?

Vane: Yeah, thanks to you gushing about it the other day.

Vane: One look at that grin on your face and it was seared into my memory!

Dragon Knight: But circumstances are different now...

Dragon Knight: The people are still uneasy after the incident the other day. It's not right for me to get to relax with my wife.

Vane: Don't be stupid! It's even worse to let a little emergency ruin your fun!

Vane: I can't very well entrust the protection of our country to you if you don't even take care of your loved ones. Now run on home!

Dragon Knight: But there's no way I'll be able to get an anniversary gift in time.

Vane: You're goin' home anyway! At times like these, it's important to tell her how you feel!

Lyria: He's right! You should take this opportunity to spend some quality time with your wife!

Vane: Still, I wouldn't feel right sending you home empty-handed. Hmm.... You need some kind of gift... I mean, it is your anniversary.

Vane: Say, do you have any ideas for a good present, (Captain)?

Vyrn: Hmm... It should be something that'll make his wife happy... And something that won't take too long to prepare...

Vane: Oh, I know! Why don't you cook dinner for her so she doesn't have to?

Vane: She makes lunch for you every day, right? This is your chance to thank her for it!

Dragon Knight: Um... But I hardly ever cook.

Vane: Ha-ha! No problem! I can help you cook!

Dragon Knight: Thank you so much, Vice-Captain, sir! I'll do my best!

Dragon Knight: But... Um... This is embarrassing, but there's not much in my wallet right this second.

Vane: Aw, don't worry about that! Just come with me!

(Captain) and company follow Vane outside the town.

Vane: This time of year, there are plenty of ripe fruits and mushrooms you can pick!

Vane: We'll whip up a meal using the freshest ingredients, and your wife'll be sure to love it!

Lyria: Wow, sounds lovely! Let's help them gather ingredients, (Captain)!

Dragon Knight: Thank you, sir... And (Captain) and the rest of you... I really appreciate all the help!

Vane: Monsters and other animals like to forage around here, so try not to get eaten!

Vane: Wait, we don't have time to goof off! We've gotta factor in the cooking time! Let's hurry, (Captain)!

Make the Best of Today: Scene 2

Infatigable, Vane and his subordinate gather tons of mushrooms and fruits. They even catch a fish, but Vane worries that their haul won't be enough, so he decides to go after a rabbit to make it the final ingredient.

Vane: Oh, these mushrooms are edible! They'd be really good in a soup!

Dragon Knight: Ah! I ate this fruit on a march once. Might as well pick some!

Lyria: Wow! You two are doing a great job! Look at all the food we've gathered!

Vane: Heh-heh! Well, all that military training taught us to be self-sufficient, you know.

Vane: Plus... Oh, that's right! There's a river near here where we can fish! Let's go, everybody!

Lyria: Hmm... The fish don't seem to be biting much...

Dragon Knight: Ha-ha! Fishing takes patience, you know. But you might have a point.

Vane: Upsy-daisy!
Whew. Hmm... You're a little too small, buddy. Back you go.

Dragon Knight: You're really good at fishing, Vice-Captain, sir! That was your third catch!

Vane: Heh-heh! Back in the day, me and Lancey would compete to see who could catch the most... Whoa!

There's a tug on Vane's line, and he deftly reels in his next catch.

Vane: Oh! Now this one would make a fine meal!

Vane: Hmm... But this isn't quite enough to fill the dinner table.

Vane: I'd like to keep fishing, but we've gotta head back if we're gonna cook everything in time.

Dragon Knight: This is already plenty. Thank you.

Dragon Knight: All I need to do now is buy the rest of the ingredients at the market on the way home.

Vane: Okay, then let's—

Vane gets to his feet but suddenly freezes.

Vyrn: Huh? What's the matter, Vane?

Vane: Shh! Look over there...

Dragon Knight: Oh! It's a rabbit!

Vane: Sorry, little guy, but we need you to join us for dinner tonight!

Vane: All right. I'll sneak behind him to cut off his escape. You guys help me catch him, (Captain)!

Make the Best of Today: Scene 3

(Captain) and company do some grocery shopping to get the rest of what they need. On hearing about the subordinate's upcoming wedding anniversary, shopkeeper after shopkeeper give him goods to help out. As thanks, he decides to hold his anniversary party in the plaza so everyone can attend, and Vane is thrilled to see his subordinate so happy.

Having successfully caught the rabbit, (Captain) and company return to the royal capital.

Vane: We need to prepare this rabbit as quickly as possible... We might not make it in time, but let's do our best!

Vane leads the party on a tour through various stores.

Vane: Good day, ma'am! I need a few things.

Grocer: Why, hello, Vane! That's a lot of things you're carrying! What's the occasion?

Vane: Heh-heh! Well, you see, it's this guy's anniversary today!

Vane: He's decided to treat his wife to a nice home-cooked meal, but we need to pick up a few things first.

The owner of the tavern next door overhears Vane talking and peeks his head out.

Bar Owner: Well, doesn't that sound swell! Here's a little freebie from me! Share a glass with the missus, Sir Knight!

Dragon Knight: What? No, I couldn't! Let me pay you...

Bar Owner: Ha-ha! It's fine! Just take it!

Grocer: I'd like to do something to help you celebrate too! Here, Mr. Knight! Why don't you take these potatoes?

Butcher: Oh? What's all the fuss?

One after another, shopkeepers come and give the knight a little something, and his arms are soon full.

Florist: Tee-hee! My turn! Here you go. Enjoy your anniversary!

Dragon Knight: Uh... Thank you very much! I appreciate it, everyone.

Vyrn: Heh-heh! Look at all that! There's no way the two of you will be able to eat all of it.

Dragon Knight: About that... I was thinking, instead of a dinner for two, maybe all of you could join us for a party.

Dragon Knight: You're all welcome, skyfarers! And of course, you too, Vice-Captain, sir!

Vane: Wha? Are you sure? But wouldn't we just get in the way?

Dragon Knight: Are you kidding? I'm sure my wife would be thrilled to have all these people celebrate with us.

Dragon Knight: Besides, part of a White Dragon Knight's job is to keep the town lively and happy!

Vane: ...!
Well said, my man! I'm proud to be your vice-captain!

Vane: Well then, let's gather everyone in the plaza and have an outdoor get-together!

Dragon Knight: Oh! That's right! We should invite the captain too.

Vane: Oh, please do! And don't forget Siegfried and the other knights!

Vane: Oh yeah! And Percival! Can't forget him!

Dragon Knight: Okay! But I'll start by telling all the shopkeepers.

Vane: Got it! And we'll carry everything to the plaza.

Vane: Now then... What shall we make today?

Lyria: Hee-hee! This is exciting, isn't it, (Captain)?

Thus the knight and his wife have a wonderful anniversary party with all of their friends.

Seeing his subordinate look so happy, Vane smiles once again.

This kind and bighearted knight will surely continue to protect the happiness of all the people he holds dear.
