Happy Birthday Cutscenes
# Link Text
1 ✔

Birthdays mean only one thing, and that's cake. Here, I made one for you.
Happy birthday! Hurry and get yourself a plate. I'll cut a slice for you.

2 ✔

Here's a cake for ya.
That's right. Another cake. It's your birthday after all.
But this cake's a little different from the others. Hehehe...
Just have a bite and find out for yourself. You'll be surprised. Happy birthday, (Captain).

3 ✔

Now then, today's your birthday. It might sound funny to ask, but how do you feel?
Feeling a little more focused, eh? Humph. I see... Sounds like you're really growing up.
That's the unabashed steeliness fitting of a skyfaring crew captain. I truly respect that.
But you're still a kid. So you should act as carefree as you wish for today.
What? You think I should let you do whatever you want no matter what? Heh-heh, well I suppose that's all right.
For one day only, I'll let you get away with whatever you like. Happy birthday, (Captain)!

4 ✔

Happy birthday, (Captain). I consider myself blessed to be able to celebrate your birthday time and time again. I don't make promises easily. But I've been around you long enough that I wouldn't mind making one with you. Know that I'll always be your ally. You can count on me to support you anytime. Grow strong and healthy, (Captain).

5 ✔

Happy birthday, (Captain).
When we first met, I thought you were nothing but a child. It's hard to believe just how wrong I was.
Even so, you've still got a long road ahead of you in this life.
When we celebrate this day next year, you'll have grown in strength of body and character.
But you're still a child, as far as I'm concerned, so don't try to take everything on by yourself. Sometimes you should let your elders spoil you. Times like today, for example.
Oho, so you want a lavish birthday cake? Heh. You just leave it to me. I'll bake you a cake that'll knock your socks off.

Happy New Year Cutscenes
# Link Text
1 ✔

The new year is here. What a wonderful day... Better go and make the first cake of the year.
Ha-ha. Why don't you come and help?

2 ✔

The new year is here. But I... I still...
I still haven't found anything to aid my search!
I'm sorry... You don't want me to apologize? Because I've helped the crew?
It's enough to make you cry...
No, it's nothing. You're too nice for your own good, as usual.
The old me used to fear your kindness. But after traveling with you, I realized it's saved me countless times.
Thank you, (Captain). Let's have a great year.

3 ✔

Heh-heh! The crew members are having a ball with the celebration. Did you need something, (Captain)?
You want me to help you make some mochi snacks, huh? Hm, then hand me that mallet and let's get to mashing! Oh yeah!
Ready? Here we go!
One!
Two!
Say, what's this goo turning into? It sure looks moist and chewy... Huh? So that's why they call it mochi...
Heh-heh! Ha-ha-ha!

4 ✔

Happy New Year. It's always a delight to welcome in another year.
Come to think of it, (Captain), we've known each other for quite some time now.
I never thought I'd come to trust anyone other than Acorazada.
But I have you to count on now, (Captain).
Let us fight together this year as well. You have my trust.

5 ✔

Happy New Year, (Captain). We've made it safely through another year.
I think we can both chalk it up to having reliable companions to watch our backs.
You just keep getting stronger. I don't plan to be left behind, so I'll be training twice as hard.
Besides, how else am I going to save Carolla and Acorazada?
I say it every year, (Captain), but I'm glad I've got you looking out for me. Let's make this year another good one.

Valentine's Day Cutscenes
# Link Text
1 ✔

Oh, it's you. You want to know what I'm up to?
I was just thinking about the chocolate cake Carolla used to make. It was delicious...
Hm? Is this for me? Heheh, you're too nice for your own good. Thank you.

2 ✔

Oh! You've got chocolate for me? Heh-heh, I'm much obliged. You're very kind indeed.
I'll bake you a cake as thanks. A chocolate cake rich with sweetness and flavor...
Heh-heh... You'd better look forward to it!

3 ✔

It's a token of your gratitude for me, you say? Good grief... It's just like you to do this...
You're so kind. Too kind for your own good... So kind that it could be your weakness...
But after journeying with you, I see now that kindness is your weapon.
Don't you ever forget to be kind. Someday, somewhere... it will surely help you.
Well, it seems that turned into a lecture somehow.
But I'm grateful for this gift. And I gladly accept it, (Captain).

4 ✔

Happy Valentine's. I gladly accept your gift.
A token of friendship, you say. Haha. I'd love to show this to Carolla.
It's nice to have a dependable comrade who provides yearly goodies to boot.
I'm sure Carolla would be fond of you as well.
Thanks for being a pal, (Captain). You don't know how thankful I am.

5 ✔

Thank you again, (Captain).
You're a pretty accomplished chocolatier, and every year you seem to outdo yourself.
It inspires me to keep improving my baking skills.
Well, it's time to roll up my sleeves and start working on my White Day surprise. I won't let you down.
In thanks for this delicious chocolate, you can expect one spectacular cake.

White Day Cutscenes
# Link Text
1 ✔

I made a few too many macarons, (Captain).
I'll never be able to eat them all, so have a few!
What's that? I gave you too many for one person to eat? Humph! I'm a big eater, you know.
Enough questions now, and eat up! If you don't I'll have to do it myself... Haha!

2 ✔

You knew what I was bringing as soon as you saw me, didn't you?
But... these are cookies!
You're looking a bit puzzled now... Aren't you sick of me giving you cake every time?
So I thought I'd make some cookies this time. I used Carolla's own recipe too. They're sure to be good so have a bite.
You're always there to help me. And I thank you for it, (Captain)

3 ✔

Hm... Here's a thank-you gift for the Valentine's gift, (Captain). What's wrong? Don't be shy.
I'm sorry for lecturing you this past Valentine's Day.
From now on, when we have holidays like that, I'll express my thanks straightforward.
That's something the crew has taught me. When Carolla wakes up and hears that, she might laugh.
Heh-heh, I think I've loosened up quite a bit!

4 ✔

Here, take it.
I tried to give the chocolates a different spin this year.
They should more closely resemble the kind that Carolla would make.
I doubt they match hers in flavor, but I hope you find them palatable.
Hm? Carolla's culinary skills? I'd say she's unmatched in all the skies.
Okay—I guess I'm just playing favorites, but I can tell you her sweets are really something else.
I can't wait for the day I get to treat you to a few of them.

5 ✔

Here (Captain). This is to say thank you for Valentine's Day.
Last year I made you something from one of Carolla's recipes, but this year I wanted to make something in my own style.
Carolla's cooking really is unbeatable though. I'm sure you enjoyed even my pale imitation last year.
So I actually baked you two types of cupcakes, just to be safe. One is Carolla's recipe, and the other is mine.
I'd love to hear your opinions of both. No need to spare my feelings, either.
I need to hone my skills if I'm going to satisfy your and Carolla's discerning palates.

Trick or Treat Cutscenes
# Link Text
1 ✔

Happy Halloween!
A trick or a treat, huh? I guess I'll go for the treat.
And see! I baked a cake! This is the day for getting treats, but don't overdo it.

2 ✔

It's great to see everyone letting loose and enjoying themselves.
But that's when we need to be most careful. You never know what might happen.
But hey, I'm not trying to be a wet blanket here. So let's have some of my homemade cupcakes and party on!
As for me, I'll be taking it in stride. Haha...

3 ✔

Oh! You're in costume too, (Captain)! I almost didn't recognize you.
Here, have some candy. Go on and take what you want. Don't be shy.
You want all of it? Can you carry it all? If that's how much you want, then I'll give you a hand.
Don't worry about taking this much. I can whip up some more candies for the other kids in town.
But... that reminds me. If it's all right with you, could you help me pass them out later?

4 ✔

What a shock...
Ah, (Captain). Good timing.
I considered making my own original cake to give out to the kids. Figured store-bought cake would be a nice reference.
I found a plastic figurine placed right in the center. Apparently it's a common thing with king cakes.
I'd never have come up with the idea myself. Patissiers are really something else.
Anyhow, I'm thinking of trying my hand at king cake. Think you can help out, (Captain)?
Let's make it so good that the kids will be jumping for joy with each bite!

5 ✔

Oh, (Captain)! Headed into town?
Can you take these cupcakes with you?
Every year I seem to end up making more sweets than the last.
I made so many this year, I don't think I can give them all out myself. If you were hoping to play tricks when I didn't give you treats, I'll have to disappoint you.
Your share, you ask? I've got it ready, of course.
A king cake to delight your taste buds.
Better sit down to eat it, because you're likely to swoon. Haha, just kidding.

Happy Holidays Cutscenes
# Link Text
1 ✔

Happy holidays.
Carolla and I used to bake holiday cookies this time of year...
I think I'll make a batch today! You're gonna have some, right?

2 ✔

This season is bittersweet for me.
Listen, (Captain), let me have a day off today.
I made cookies... for Carolla.
So I'm thinking of taking some to her... What's that? You want to come along? Heh...
I don't mind. Thank you, (Captain).

3 ✔

You want to bake a cake with me? I don't mind lending you a hand...
I see... It's a cake for Carolla. Thanks, (Captain). You really have a big heart.
And not just you... Everyone in our crew is too nice for their own good... You think I am too, eh?
Heh-heh! I dunno about that... I can get pretty stern when I'm baking a cake, you know!
How about we get started then? Let's whip up a shortcake with strawberries on top!

4 ✔

Truth is I'd never given Carolla a holiday gift...
I once asked if she wanted anything, but she always seemed more than content with my presence alone.
Acorazada would always tell me to give her something anyway...
I'd be all wishy-washy about it and end up doing nothing.
But after spending the holidays with you over so many years, I've come to realize how important gifts can be.
When she awakens, I plan on giving her a whole plethora of gifts to make up for every year I never got the chance to.
I hope you will help me pick out a few, (Captain).

5 ✔

Thank you for helping me choose another gift for Carolla.
I feel like you make much better selections than I do.
I'm sure Carolla will be surprised when she wakes up.
She's sure to wonder how in the skies I picked so well.
By the time I get her back, hopefully your good taste will have rubbed off on me, (Captain).

Tears of the Horned

Vanzza, the winner of a street fight, declines a request to go monster hunting, so (Captain) and company take on the request instead. But when the request proves harder than expected, Vanzza comes to the rescue. When he learns why the crew is traveling, he decides to join.


(Captain) and company visit a town to go shopping.
The town square is full of excited people watching a street fighting competition with prize money at stake.
Lyria: Wow! That crowd seems really into it!
Vyrn: Yeah! Let's go take a look! Come on, (Captain)!
The crew finds a good spot to watch just as the judge announces the beginning of the next match.
???: Only those willing to risk their lives should fight here. Are you willing to do that?
Brawler: Of course. I wouldn't be here if I weren't.
???: Hah... It was a foolish question. Here I come then!
Wielding a pair of tonfas, the man lunges at his opponent with frightful speed and ducks past his guard.
Brawler: What? How did—
???: Aaaghh!
The man's bestial roar makes the very air reverberate. His weapons land with an echoing crack.
Brawler: ...
His opponent's eyes roll up into his head, and he crumples to the ground unconscious.
The large man wielding the tonfas catches him before he can hit the ground and gently lays him down.
???: With respect.
Judge: W-Wow! And the winner is... Vanzza!
Vyrn: That dude with the tonfas is amazing! He leveled that guy with one blow!
While the crew stands there in awe of his fighting style, a young man darts out of the crowd.
Young Man: Excuse me, Vanzza? I have a favor to ask you!
Young Man: A lot of monsters have suddenly appeared near my village, and it's only a matter of time before we get attacked!
Young Man: Can I hire you to protect my village? I'm sure you'd be strong enough to handle it!
Vanzza: I refuse. You'll have to find someone else.
Vanzza: I don't make promises or form contracts lightly. I'm also in the middle of a journey and can't afford to get sidetracked.
Young Man: But I promised everyone in the village I'd bring back someone strong!
Young Man: You just have to help us! If you don't, even my family could be in danger...
Vanzza: Find someone else.
Vanzza gently peels the young man off of him, turns his back, and begins to walk away.
Vanzza: It's enough to make you cry.
Vyrn: What's up with his attitude? He could have helped the poor guy. What a heartless jerk!
Lyria: Um... But he actually looked like he was crying...
Vyrn: You can't be serious. Didn't you see how cold he was?
Lyria: Hmm... You might be right. I guess I could be mistaken.
Young Man: Damn it... Now what am I supposed to do? Everyone's at risk...
Lyria: Why don't we take the job instead, (Captain)?
(Captain) nods in assent, and the crew heads to the young man's village.
That night, a horde of monsters closes in on the village.
Monsters: Gwoar!
Faced with more foes than expected, the crew struggles to hold them back but is soon surrounded.
Vyrn: Um... Guys? I think we might be in trouble here.
But just as they begin to lose hope, they hear a familiar bestial roar.
Vanzza: Aaaghh!
Monsters: Grngh!
Lyria: Isn't that... Vanzza?
Vyrn: Okay! That broke their line, (Captain)! We gotta slip through so we can regroup!
Once the crew has gotten clear of the monsters, Vanzza rejoins them.
Vyrn: What's up? Didn't you say you can't get sidetracked?
Vanzza: I just happened to be passing this way. The monsters were blocking my path, so I got rid of them.
Vanzza: But kids like you should be asleep at this hour. Tell me where you're headed, and I'll escort you home.
(Captain) just stares at him, refusing to run away and abandon the village to its fate.
Vanzza: For one so young, you don't lack conviction.
So saying, Vanzza casts an eye over the nearby monsters.
Vanzza: Well... So many monsters roaming the area would clearly be an impediment to travel.
Vanzza: I obviously can't continue on my way without disposing of them first. Don't you think?
(Captain) nods and teams up with Vanzza to fight the monsters.
When the threat has been eliminated, the crew returns to the young man's village.
Young Man: Thank you for saving our village!
Young Man: And I see you came along too, Vanzza. Thank you so much!
Vanzza: If you must thank someone, thank these guys. I was just cleaning up the trash so I could travel in peace.
Vyrn: Haha... Don't be that way! You intended to help all along, didn't you?
Vanzza: Don't make me laugh. I have no goodwill. I simply took them out because they were an obstacle to my journey.
Vyrn: Hmm... Your journey, huh?
Lyria: Um... Why are you traveling, Vanzza?
Vanzza: For Carolla... No... in search of a certain man, to make him take responsibility for what he's done.
Vyrn: Huh? Who's Carolla?
Vanzza: She's the woman I love.
Vyrn: Hehe. So you've got a girlfriend!
Vanzza: Don't joke around.
Lyria: Do you have any clues about where the man you're looking for might be?
Vanzza: Not a one. But what difference does it make to you?
Lyria: Maybe we could help you.
(Captain) nods in agreement.
Vanzza: What are you talking about?
The crew members tell the suspicious Vanzza that they're skyfarers and briefly explain their journey thus far.
Vanzza: I see... So as you search for your father...
Vanzza: You're also heading to Estalucia for Lyria's sake...
Vanzza: It's enough to make you cry.
Vyrn: Huh? What's wrong, Tonfa Bro?
Vanzza: Nothing at all. More importantly... I now see that I could gather information more easily with you than on my own.
Vanzza: But why do you want to help me? I don't get it.
(Captain) explains that Vanzza can consider it a thank-you for helping the crew out.
Lyria: That's right! We want to thank you properly!
Vanzza: A thank-you, huh? I guess I can see where you're coming from.
Vanzza: And I can certainly go from island to island faster if you help me.
Vanzza: Fine then. I'll go with you.
Lyria: Really? Yay!
Vanzza: But this doesn't mean that I'm your friend.
Vyrn: Huh? What do you mean?
Vanzza: I don't make promises or form contracts lightly. And that's because I'm not quick to trust others.
Vanzza: You can't be friends with people you don't trust, can you?
Vyrn: I guess that's true, but...
Vanzza: I'm only agreeing to this because our interests are aligned. There's no need for you to help me as some misguided show of gratitude.
Vanzza: This is a simple business transaction. In exchange for letting me fly with you, I'll help with whatever I can instead of paying a fare.
Vanzza: I also think you all are too nice. You should really save your kindness for friends you can trust.
Vanzza: I'm serious... You've barely known me for a day.
  1. We can already trust each other!
  2. I won't apologize for being kind to the core!

Choose: We can already trust each other!
Vanzza: What if I turn out to be a bad guy?
Lyria: That could never happen! You're a good guy, Vanzza!
Vanzza: Don't be so sure. I'm warning you that you need to think these things through.
Vanzza: At any rate, I don't need your gratitude. You got that?

Choose: I won't apologize for being kind to the core!
Vanzza: Whoa... You're more adamant about it than I expected.
Vyrn: Haha! He's not wrong. You and Lyria are kind to a fault!
Vanzza: At any rate, I don't need your gratitude. You got that?
Continue 1
Lyria: Um... If you say so...
Lyria and (Captain) agree but seem rather defeated about it.
Vanzza scratches his cheek distractedly and sighs, clearly conflicted.
Vanzza: But you know... If you really want to thank me for helping out, I guess I could go for a cake. A gigantic one.
Lyria: What? A cake?
Vanzza: What's wrong with that? It's my favorite food.
Vyrn: You just... don't look like a guy with a sweet tooth.
Vyrn: Hehe... Sounds like we have some shopping to do tomorrow morning.
Vanzza: Don't forget the strawberries. Cake with strawberries on top is my favorite.
Lyria: Hee hee... Got it!
(Captain) and the others relax, happy to have seen another side of their new shipmate, Vanzza. They excitedly begin to discuss what sort of cake to bake.
Vanzza: Carolla... I think I may have to watch over these kids for a while...
Vanzza sighs as he listens to the crew's chatter, murmuring under his breath as if a certain someone were listening.
But his expression is calm, and he smiles right along with them.

Faith is Bittersweet

(Captain) and company are asked to figure out why rare forest animals are disappearing. During their investigation, they see some suspicious men who Vanzza says belong to a gang led by his rival. When Vyrn raises his voice in surprise, the gang finds them.


(Captain)'s crew receives a request from a village.
The villagers explain that they started seeing suspicious men at around the same time that rare animals began disappearing from the forest.
Suspecting that the men are poachers, the crew heads into the forest to investigate.
Lyria: I'm sorry, Vanzza. I know we haven't found any clues about the person you're looking for, and here we are asking you for help.
Vanzza: I don't mind. As I've been telling you, I can find him myself. There's no need for you to go out of your way to help me.
Lyria: But we really want to help!
Lyria: Um... So what's he like?
Vanzza: Sigh...
Vanzza: He's the man I trust the most. We used to train together, and I guess you could call him my rival.
Vyrn: Rivals, huh? Did you guys have a big fight to see who was stronger and stuff?
Vanzza: That sounds about right.
Vanzza: ...
Vyrn: ...
Lyria: ...
Lyria: Um... When we're done with this request, why don't we all have some cake?
Vyrn: Uh... Yeah! I vote for apple cake!
(Captain) nods at their suggestion.
Vanzza: You're all really sweet kids.
Lyria: Hehe...
Vanzza: As I've said before, I don't make promises lightly.
Vanzza: But I guess I can promise to go have some cake.
Lyria: Yay! We'll hold you to that!
With their promise made, they go back to searching the forest.
After a while, they discover several suspicious-looking men.
Vanzza: ...?
Lyria: What's wrong, Vanzza?
Vanzza: Those men are members of Acorazada's gang. He's that rival I told you about.
Vyrn: No way! Why are they here?
Lyria: Shh! Vyrn, keep your voice down!
Gang Member: Huh? Who's there? Show yourself!
Vyrn: Oops... My bad.
Vanzza: It's fine. It would have come to this sooner or later.
Vanzza: (Captain), ready your weapon and prepare for a fight!

Faith is Bittersweet: Scene 2

During the battle with (Captain)'s crew, one of the gang members recognizes Vanzza and tries to buy time by taunting him with talk of his past. But Vanzza is unmoved and corners the gang member. The desperate villain calls for reinforcements, who rush in and attack.


Gang Member: Not bad... I must admit...
Vanzza: Give it up. You know you're no match for us alone.
Gang Member: Damn it... But wait...
Gang Member: No way! The broken horn, the tonfas... I know you... You're Vanzza!
Vanzza: That's right. Now where's your boss, Acorazada? Is he here?
Gang Member: Ha! Nope. Tough luck.
Vanzza: All right... Then tell me where he is.
Gang Member: No idea. The boss doesn't show himself to us low-ranking members.
Gang Member: Why are you still fighting with those tonfas anyway?
Gang Member: The way I heard it, you lost to the boss because of those.
Lyria: Wait... What does he mean?
Vanzza: The tonfa happens to be my weakest weapon.
Vyrn: Seriously?
Gang Member: You really are dumb. If you hadn't used the tonfas, you could have beat the boss.
Gang Member: Heh heh... And your main squeeze wouldn't have gotten caught in the middle!
Vyrn: Huh? What's he mean?
Gang Member: Let me tell you a little story. This big lug lost a fight against our boss, so he should've been killed.
Gang Member: But our boss is the nicest guy you could ever hope to meet, so he let this loser live.
Gang Member: Hahaha! But he poisoned his girlfriend instead, and now she's in a coma!
Lyria: Oh no! That's terrible...
Vanzza: ...
Gang Member: Heh... But rumor has it that you still trust the boss. Is that true? Don't you realize that you were betrayed?
Vanzza: ...
Gang Member: Hey! Don't you have anything to say for yourself? Come on!
Vanzza: I have no rebuttal to make. I lost because I was using tonfas. That's a fact, and I can't change it.
Vanzza: However, that is precisely why I use tonfas.
Gang Member: What?
Vanzza: Carolla was always against me fighting. She always said how it was savage and dangerous.
Vanzza: The one thing she could tolerate was my use of the tonfas. I guess she liked the way I swung them around.
Vanzza: You asked if I still trust Acorazada? Of course I do!
Vanzza: Even if he betrayed me, I'll continue to trust him! I don't care if people think me a fool. That's what it means to trust!
Vanzza: And that's why I will put an end to it all. With my own hands and these tonfas!
As he finishes speaking, Vanzza hurls one of his tonfas into the shadows between the trees.
Underlings: Eek!
He flings it with such force that it buries itself in the ground, handle vibrating, directly in the path of a group of men carrying a cage.
Vanzza: You thought I wouldn't notice that you were just trying to buy time?
Gang Member: Damn it! Well then, you asked for it!
Gang Member: Hey! You guys! Take them down!

Faith is Bittersweet: Scene 3

The gang members are defeated, but one of them poisons (Captain) while the crew's guard is down. Vanzza takes the antidote from the gang members and decides to save (Captain) instead of his girlfriend, who is in a coma due to the same poison. After recovering, (Captain) offers to help Vanzza, and Vanzza gladly accepts.


After a fierce battle, the crew defeats most of the gang.
But the gang member who was taunting Vanzza earlier staggers toward (Captain).
Vanzza: (Captain), watch out!
Vanzza's warning comes too late, and the gang member collapses onto (Captain).
(Captain) feels a sharp pain at the base of the neck and then falls to the ground.
Lyria: Aahh! (Captain)! Are you okay?
(Captain) tries to stand up but can't seem to move. The captain's consciousness gradually begins to slip away.
Vanzza: No! You wouldn't!
Gang Member: Ugh... Heh... Heh heh... Oh, but I would. It's the same poison... And I've got the antidote right here, but only one dose.
The gang member takes out the antidote and throws it to the crew, cackling.
Lyria rushes to pick it up, but Vanzza gets to it first.
Lyria: Huh? Vanzza?
Vanzza: ...
Gang Member: Heh heh... It's useless, little girl. He'll never give that up. Like I told you earlier...
Gang Member: His girlfriend's been suffering from the same poison as that kid lying there.
Gang Member: Heh... That's right... Now you guys... can suffer too.
With those words, the gang member loses consciousness.
Vanzza: ...
Vyrn: Hey... Vanzza...
Vanzza: Hey, (Captain). We're all going to eat cake when this is over, right?
Vanzza: So this is no time for a nap...
(Captain)'s consciousness slips away before Vanzza can finish speaking.
Lyria: Oh! (Captain), you're awake.!
(Captain) wakes up at an inn. They are back at the village where they accepted the mission.
(Captain) has no idea how many hours have passed, but Lyria is seated beside the bed, tears welling up in her eyes.
Lyria: I'm so glad... So, so glad...
Lyria: Huh? You want to talk to Vanzza?
Lyria: Actually... right after we carried you here, he said he wanted to be alone and—
Lyria: Hey! (Captain)!
(Captain) jumps up and rushes out of the inn.
(Captain) searches high and low, and finally finds Vanzza crying beneath the shade of a tree.
Vanzza: I'm sorry... I'm so sorry, Carolla... I... I...
Vanzza: I had the chance to save you, but I—
Vanzza: (Captain)! Were you listening?
Vanzza: What's with the face? You shouldn't be the one feeling guilty.
Vanzza: Even if I'd abandoned you and saved Carolla instead...
Vanzza: Carolla wouldn't be happy. She'd probably even leave me.
Vanzza: ...
Vanzza: Hey, (Captain)... Thanks for coming to find me, but I think I need some more time alone.
  1. I want to help you.
  2. ...

Choose: I want to help you.
Vanzza: You really are something...
Vanzza gently smiles and rests a heavy hand on (Captain)'s head.
Vanzza: You really are too kind... What am I going to do with you?

Choose: ...
(Captain) gives him a defiant look and sits down next to him.
Vanzza: You really are too nice...
Vanzza: The captain of all softies.

(Captain) looks Vanzza in the eye and tells him that they will all be there to help him.
Vanzza: When I first met you, I thought you were just some helpless kid who needed to be looked after.
Vanzza: How is it that you seem so reliable to me now?
Vanzza: So let me just say thank you. I'll gladly accept your help.
Vanzza holds out his hand.
(Captain) grasps it and gives it a firm shake.
Vanzza: We should probably go back. I'm sure Lyria and Vyrn are worried.
Vanzza: And we made a promise, didn't we? There's a cake with our name on it.
(Captain) smiles at Vanzza.
Vanzza smiles back, and they return to the inn where Lyria and Vyrn are waiting.

Healer of the Horned

During a battle, Jasmine is threatened with a knife and Vanzza, thinking it may be poisoned, loses control. When Jasmine learns Vanzza's girlfriend is in a poison-induced coma, she asks for information on the poison and begins research to create an antidote.


Vanzza: Haaah!
Thief: Ugh!
Vanzza: Humph. Is that the last of them?
Vyrn: Yeah, looks that way. Sorry to ask for your help again, Vanzza!
Vanzza: I'm looking for information on that man. This just happens to overlap with my objective.
After a tip-off about an arrest bounty, the crew has raided the lair of a group of thieves who have been menacing a certain town.
Caught by surprise, the thieves are soon bound hand and foot, and the bounty seems to be all but in hand...
Vyrn: Whew... Sorry, Vanzza. We thought these guys might be connected to the rival you were searching for, but looks like they're not...
Vanzza: Humph... as I keep telling you, I can search by myself. You guys don't have to help me.
Jasmine: Hee hee... All right! I've finished treating the thieves' wounds!
Vyrn: Hey... There's no need to look after those guys. Just leave 'em...
Jasmine: But... When I see someone hurt, I can't withhold the medicine they need...
Vanzza: ...
The crew bring the bound thieves with them along the mountain trail. Suddenly, one of the thieves smiles creepily.
Thief: Geh heh heh...
The thief has managed to wriggle free of his bonds. He springs toward Jasmine.
Thief: Hya ha! I'm taking you down with me, you naive fool!
Jasmine: Huh?
Vanzza: Jasmine! Watch out!
The thief pulls out a concealed dagger and presses the blade to Jasmine's throat.
Vanzza: ...!
Seeing this, something snaps in Vanzza's head.
Vanzza: Rrrraaaaahhhh!
Thief: Eek!
With a cry like a wild beast, Vanzza rushes the thief, knocking him down with a single blow of his tonfa.
Vanzza: Huff... Huff... It's just a dagger. Looks like... the blade wasn't poisoned.
Jasmine: Thank you, Vanzza.
Vanzza: ...
After they hand the thieves over to government officials, a gloomy Vanzza holes up in his room.
Jasmine: Um, why do you think Vanzza shut himself up like that? He's been acting strange since I was attacked...
Vyrn: Something like that happened before. (Captain) was struck by a poison dart and collapsed...
Vyrn: Maybe today reminded Vanzza of that and bummed him out.
Vyrn: It seems like things were kinda complicated for him before he met us too. He must have a lot on his mind.
Jasmine: Hmm... Poison, you say? Was it a strong poison?
Vyrn: It sure was. (Captain) went down seconds after getting hit. And the antidote was really hard to come by.
Jasmine: That's awful! Vyrn, please tell me more about that poison!
Vyrn: Huh? What for?
Jasmine: Well, I was thinking I'd make an antidote myself. As an herbalist, I can't hear a story like that and just do nothing!
Vyrn: Hey, wait a sec... You mean you can do that even without having the actual poison on hand?
Jasmine: Not exactly... But if you tell me how the poison and antidote were used, I should be able to narrow down the type.
Jasmine: Then, if anyone is affected by that poison again, I can make a prototype antidote which would slow its effects and give us more time to save them.
Vyrn: Hmm... You wanna know how the poison worked, huh? It all happened so fast, it's kinda hard to remember...
Vyrn: Erm... I think it was a poison dart, covered in the stuff...
Jasmine: I see... And which part of the body did the dart strike?
Vyrn: Um, I think it was around the neck... but I can't say exactly...
Pressed by Jasmine, Vyrn tries hard to recall the incident.
As if on cue, Vanzza appears.
Vanzza: It was the back of the neck... near the spine...
Jasmine: Huh? Vanzza? You know how the poison was used?
Vanzza: I've seen it... Several times.
Vyrn: That's right... Your girlfriend was poisoned the same way, wasn't she...
Jasmine: My, that's terrible... As an herbalist, I'll do everything in my power to help!
Vanzza: Humph... Leave it. You shouldn't make that kind of promise...
But...
Vanzza: Listen, this antidote... can you make it? The only person who currently has it is Acorazada, the one I'm searching for...
Jasmine: Yes. I'm sure I can make it. Identifying the right ingredients is an herbalist's job.
Jasmine: Um, Vanzza... This may be painful for you to recall, but... please tell me everything you know!
Jasmine: Is this poison never delivered in food?
Vanzza: I don't think so... (Captain) and Carolla were both poisoned using a needle.
Jasmine: Hmm, I see... In other words, it won't take effect if administered orally...
Vanzza: Right. I can confirm that because I was fine after I tried to suck the poison out of the wound.
Vanzza listens carefully to Jasmine's questions, earnestly telling her everything he can remember.
Commanding her medicinal knowledge, Jasmine works out several potential candidates for the poison mixture, writing them down.
Jasmine: Hmm... I can't guarantee that the poison used on Carolla is among these...
Jasmine: But even without Acorazada's antidote, with some time, I promise I'll save Carolla!
Vanzza: ...
Vanzza struggles to remain silent, restraining himself from voicing his usual hatred of promises.
The possibility of an antidote from an unforeseen source appears to be having a powerful effect on him.
Vanzza: Hey... Jasmine. Why? Why go this far?
Jasmine: I just want to save as many people as possible from the suffering caused by illness and poison.
Jasmine: That's... That's all.
Vanzza: Ngh...
Vanzza: Geez, you're going to make me cry!
Jasmine: Eep! Oh no! Vanzza, are you hurt somewhere?
Vanzza: Ha ha... No. I'm fine. Really.
Vanzza: Thanks, Jasmine. I must repay you sometime for this.
Vanzza: Hmm... I know. I'll take you to this cake shop Carolla and I used to go to all the time.
Vanzza: Heh heh... Carolla said the cakes were a little too sweet, actually. It's an important place to the two of us, that shop...
Jasmine: You don't have to... I mean, I haven't done anything for you yet.
Jasmine: Hehe... But why not? If we ever go to that cake shop, I want some acorn cake!
Vanzza: Acorn cake? I've never seen that before...
Vanzza: Huh... Guess I'll try and order it next time, though. Might be fun to see what I get.
Jasmine: Hee hee! I'm looking forward to it. In the meantime, I'll get working on this antidote, Vanzza!
And so Jasmine begins her research in order to save Vanzza's girlfriend, Carolla.
Her optimistic promise shines a ray of hope into Vanzza's despair.
