Happy Birthday Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Happy birthday, Captain. I tried to make you a birthday cake, but... Ah. Don't worry. It's just a trial run for Katalina's birthday next month. But in fact, Captain... I'm beginning to think of you just as fondly as I do Katalina. Heehee... I expect you'll only become even more wonderful in time...
2	✔	The practice cake I made last year in preparation for Katalina's birthday received marvelous reviews from everyone, Katalina included. So this year... I tried making another one. It's a little more special this time... I baked it with all the thanks and appreciation of the past year. Katalina is forever my favorite... But I guess you're okay too, (Captain).
3	✔	Happy birthday, (Captain). I've made another birthday cake for you. But this time it's not practice for another cake I'm making. This was made just for you, with no one but you in mind. I have you to thank for making Katalina into the person she is today. And even if not for her... you've become a very important person to me in your own right.
4	✔	Happy birthday, (Captain). This time I have made a particularly scrumptious cake. Here you are. The more we celebrate this day, the more natural it feels to do all this. It's... almost like having a family... I have no other feelings for you besides appreciation, but you are an important person to me, (Captain). May you do well with someone such as myself at your side.
5	✔	Happy birthday, (Captain). I've become quite accustomed to making your birthday cake. Allow me to cut and serve you a slice. Which reminds me... Do you have anything you'd like aside from cake? Clothes, accessories, flowers... or perhaps something you use often. Why, you ask? It is only natural to want to know everything about someone special to you. It's been quite a while since we first met each other, but there is still so much I have yet to know about you. I hope you'll continue telling me more about yourself, (Captain).

Happy New Year Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Happy New Year. May I get even closer to Katalina this year...
2	✔	It's the start of a new year, (Captain). When I lived alone in Albion, I never thought anything of it. But now I have Katalina, these endlessly liberating skies... and you, (Captain). The prospect of another year of happiness fills me with unfettered joy.
3	✔	Hmm... What a bind. Ah, (Captain). I thought of going to visit the local temples for the new year; it seems to be a custom in this region. But I realized I have nothing to pray for at the temple. I'm able to stay by Katalina's side every day in our travels, and you're here with me as well. I'm not sure what more there is to want. But I think if I did have to pray for something... I suppose I might ask for this happiness to never end.
4	✔	(Captain), happy New Year. What do you say to going to a temple? After inviting Katalina of course. I've made up my mind. No matter how happy I am, I can always be happier. For that happiness to continue, I will need you and my Katalina... That we can continue our journey is what I'll wish for at the temple.
5	✔	Happy New Year, (Captain). Have you already made a visit to the temple and said your New Year's greetings to everyone? If you have a little time, I would appreciate it if you could teach me the various New Year's customs. Last year, I visited the temple with you and Katalina and wished for happiness. In order to achieve that happiness, I believe it is important to treasure each and every season. Perhaps learning more about New Year's customs can act as a first step in appreciating the different seasons. I've extended an invitation to Katalina as well, of course. We can't have her waiting on us, so let's hurry.

Valentine's Day Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Ah... The burning passion I feel can hardly be contained in something so brittle and small as this chocolate. For Katalina, only the ultimate chocolate can suffice...
2	✔	Hello, (Captain). I have a very important request to ask of you. As I'm sure you realize, today is Valentine's Day. I wanted to spend the day making chocolates with Katalina... But I need someone to poison tes—I mean taste test the chocolates... I'll compensate you with the chocolates we make. Hee hee... No reason to decline, is there?
3	✔	(Captain)... You know how important you are to me, don't you? I'm proud to call you my captain. No. More than a captain... A comrade in arms. One who can never be replaced. I'm truly thankful to have you in my life. Now then, you know what time of the year it is don't you? Would you be so kind as to help me taste test the chocolates Katalina and I are making this year? Your time will not go unrewarded, of course. Being the dependable comrade that you are, I'm sure you wouldn't possibly abandon me in this time of need, would you?
4	✔	(Captain), what is the significance of Valentine's Day for you? Is it a day to show love... Or appreciation... Or something more? For me, it is something else entirely. Yes... It is a day of wishing well for one another. Would you help me make chocolates this year for my Katalina. I have decided to try Katalina's chocolate. Should I not pass away... We can hope for our continued health and prosperity, (Captain).
5	✔	I can see the determination in your eyes... Yes, the time for us to join hands has come once again. A day of battle that comes once a year—a day of happiness and trial, on which one has the chance to receive Katalina's homemade sweets... No need to worry. Surely both you and I can overcome this day. We will survive. Oh, but before you proceed to the kitchen, please accept this gift from me. This is chocolate from a batch I made earlier for sampling. It contains herbs that should aid in building up strength. I hope it can be of help to you. Now, let's head to the kitchen. Valentine's Day starts here for us.
Gift		Raspberry Chocolate Cake

White Day Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Something in return for Valentine's? I'm not particularly interested if it's not from Katalina, but... I'll accept it for now, I suppose. Thank you.
2	✔	Oh? Do you need me for something? Now that you mention it... Today's White Day, yes? Allow me to express my sincere thanks. Hee hee... You're quite the generous individual, aren't you? I love your sincerity... as long as it's not directed at Katalina.
3	✔	Hm? Ah, is this in return for Valentine's Day? Why, thank you. ... You truly are fascinating, (Captain). Every year at this time you give me a present, and every year I act indifferent. There are so many others in the crew who would be overjoyed to receive this gift. Many others who would be so much more grateful than me... Yet... every year... you still choose me. And while I wouldn't say I'm touched... Perhaps... Just maybe... I might be starting to feel something like it.
4	✔	Hehe... You've prepared a White Day gift for me this year as well. Thank you, (Captain). At first I really had no interest in you whatsoever... But your perserverance every year is enough to fell even this thorny rose...
5	✔	A present for me? I take it that this is for White Day? Thank you, (Captain). I will enjoy it with my tea later on in the day. Truly, you never fail to keep up the custom year after year... No. I can see that you do it not out of obligation, but out of kind affection. I suppose that's why it gives me such a ticklish feeling...

Trick or Treat Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Trick or treat. Katalina never plays any tricks on me. I'm all ready and waiting too...
2	✔	Hm? What is it, (Captain)? You seem confused. Isn't it obvious why I'm sneaking around and hiding behind corners? No? Hehe, because it's Halloween, silly. I must keep an eye out for any hooligans who would dare play a nefarious trick on Katalina. Oh, would you kindly help me with my stakeout, (Captain)? I'll reward you with candy afterward.
3	✔	(Captain), would you be so kind as to say trick or treat to Katalina for me? I have candy for you if compensation is what you want. I assure you they're good; I made them myself. Why don't I do it myself, you ask? Well, I'm waiting for my chance to trick her when she runs out of candy of course. No, nothing, nothing. Just talking to myself. Enjoy your Halloween.
4	✔	A simple dress... No... Something more unusual... These stuffed animals paws do entice... Oh, (Captain), may I have a moment of your time? I am in need of a suitable Halloween costume... (Captain), would you be so kind as to give me your opinion? Oh, I see... So you think... I should dress as a man! J-just thinking about it does send chills down my spine... But... I think it may attract the attention of the wrong sort of filth...
5	✔	I've come to a realization... A realization of why Katalina will not play a trick on me. It is because she knows I am unaccustomed to such tricks! I am sure that Katalina thought of this and has refrained from playing tricks in full consideration of me. This is all because I have only ever played tricks on Katalina, and have never been on the receiving end... I must be careful not to make the same mistake, and approach this year with utmost preparation. Yes... In other words, I must practice having tricks played on myself so that Katalina can play her tricks on me without the need for considerate restraint. I trust you understand, (Captain). I am certain that you are accustomed to both playing tricks and having tricks played on you. Now, come... As practice, you may play all your tricks on me to your heart's content!

Happy Holidays Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Happy holidays. Has a nice ring to it, don't you think? Ah, to spend such a special evening with Katalina...
2	✔	Ah, there you are, (Captain). Perfect timing. How about it? Care to spend this festive night with Katalina and me? I considered spending it alone with Katalina, of course. But then your face suddenly popped into my head. Hee hee... I've become quite greedy, it seems.
3	✔	(Captain), I... have something to ask you. It's about my preparations for Katalina's gift this year. It pains me to admit, but the Katalina I knew from our academy days is not the same as the Katalina here now. As such, I think either you or Lyria would know her best. You do have an advantage over me in that area; I realize that much. So what do you say we put our heads together to find the best present for Katalina?
4	✔	Oh, (Captain). I was just looking for you. Would you have a moment for me? I need you to help me pick the perfect present for my Katalina. Once we've finished that, let's enjoy a cup of tea while we take in the beauty of our surroundings. It is that special night... And I would like you to enjoy it.
5	✔	Hello, (Captain). Thank you for making time for me this year as well. Yes. Let's pick out a present for Katalina, then enjoy ourselves over a cup of tea again. Hehe... That's strange. I wonder why I was looking forward so much to spending time with you. Oh yes. This year, allow me to pick out a present for you as well. In return for helping me choose Katalina's present... No, not quite. The holy night is a night for giving something special, to someone who is special to you. It may be different from how I feel about Katalina, but you are also someone very special to me, (Captain). That much is certain.

Dancing Flame

Having received an invitation to a ball as former Lord Commander of Albion, Vira feels her heart pounding as she makes her way to the dance hall with the rest of the crew.

---

There is a promise a girl has yet to fulfill.

There are words this girl has yet to say to the woman she admires most in all the skies.

Still...

Katalina: ...!

Vira: ...!

Vira: (Katalina... If this is what you truly want...)

Vira: Hraaah!

The truth was unavoidable. There was no regret in her choice.

But what remained for her after was status, honor, an unnatural amount of power...

Along with a collection of diaries in which she expresses her love for the woman she revered, and a single dress that was as red as freshly spilled blood.

Vira: ...

Vira: (I've waited so long for this day...)

Vira closes her diary, putting it in her clutch bag, and stands in front of the mirror.

Her deep crimson dress is as beautiful as petals on a rose, without a speck of dirt.

Vira: (I always believed that the crimson color of this dress is what will connect me to my fate...)

Vira: (Katalina... Tonight, let us dance to our hearts' content.)

Closing her eyes, Vira takes a deep breath before gracefully making her way out of the dressing room.

(Captain) and the crew sit in a waiting room, tucked within a castle whose design is reminiscent of the good old days.

Vira joins (Captain), Vyrn, and Lyria in the room as they wait for Katalina.

Lyria: What a beautiful castle! It's sparkling with lights everywhere... This must be a ball for extinguished people!

Vyrn: Hey, don'tcha mean distinguished people?

Vyrn: Well, Vira did get invited to this ball as former Lord Commander... But you sure it's okay for us to be here?

Vira: Of course. Since it's such a rare opportunity to have you with us, I hope everyone can enjoy the ball tonight.

Lyria: Thank you so much! I wonder what kinds of delicious food they'll have there...

Katalina: Sorry I'm late. Putting this on took longer than I'd expected.

Vira: ...!

Vira: Oh! What... what unworldly beauty!

Vira almost faints at the marvelous sight of Katalina in her dress.

Vira: The blue looks stunning, and the design has such refined elegance... It goes well with your dignified appearance, Katalina.

Vira: It brings out the charming, feminine side to you...

Vira: You look truly... truly magnificent, Katalina.

Katalina: Haha... Thank you, Vira. I suppose clothes really do make a difference.

Katalina: As for you...

Vira: ...

Katalina: You look wonderful too. The dress really suits you.

Vira: Oh, you flatter me...

Vira: But having you say that makes all the effort I put in for this ball worth it.

Katalina: Is this dress a favorite of yours?

Vira: Yes. That's why I also chose to wear this back in Albion.

Lyria: Both of you look gorgeous! I wish I could look as lovely in a dress...

Vira: Hehe, you look wonderful in that dress too, Lyria. Like a princess straight out of a picture book.

Lyria: R-really? Hehe, a princess...

The crew continue conversing happily as they make their way to the hall.

Soon they find themselves walking among men and women with a distinctly refined air to them.

Vyrn: Whoa... There sure are a lotta fancy-lookin' people around here. It's makin' me kinda nervous!

Lyria: Me too... But I'm also excited! The ball's finally about to start!

Vira: ...

Vira pulls her clutch bag up to her chest.

Feeling the weight of the diary inside her bag, she slowly lets out a breath.

Vira: (Blue and red, dancing in a grand hall... It's just like that day.)

Katalina: Hm? What's the matter, Vira? Are you feeling nervous?

Vira: Hehe. Actually, I am a little.

Vira: Come, Katalina. Let's enjoy the ball tonight.

With a faint smile on her lips, Vira leads the crew into the hall.

Beneath her delicate smile, Vira's overflowing emotions burn quietly with passion.

---

Back to top

Two as One

While Vira is busy conversing with other guests, she notices several men who appear to have an interest in Katalina. She fends them off before they have the chance to make their approach.

---

Vira: ...

Vira is at the ball with (Captain) and the crew as her companions for the night.

Vira: ...

Vira walks slightly ahead of the crew, showing them down the corridor leading to the hall.

But churning inside Vira is a whirlpool of unforgettable memories.

Vira: Katalina, good work at the ball. It's just like you to earn such thunderous applause from everyone.

Katalina: Haha, that was for you, wasn't it? My clumsy dancing wouldn't bring in that kind of praise.

Vira: Oh, no... I'm here merely as an accessory to your beauty, Katalina.

The biggest event at the Albion Military Academy—the Holy Knight Festival.

Once the festival comes to an end and everything is cleared away, the hustle and bustle within the academy just a moment ago dims to a peaceful silence.

Vira: Once again, thank you for having me as your dance partner at the festival tonight.

Katalina: I should be the one to thank you. It was an honor for you to choose me as your partner.

Katalina: But it looks like I'll be the target of much resentment for the next while. I hear some candidates even had a duel for the right to be your partner.

Vira: They should know from seeing us together that there is no one suitable to be my partner but you, Katalina.

Katalina: I'm flattered to hear you say that, but... I'm not holding you back, am I?

Vira: Of course not. It was truly a blissful evening. If I had dreamed it, I would have woken and chided myself for the extravagance...

Katalina: Heh, I see. I'm glad you feel that way.

Katalina: Our last Holy Knight Festival... I really enjoyed myself too. Thank you.

Vira: ...!

Vira: (That's right. By the time the next Holy Knight Festival comes around, Katalina will no longer be here...)

Vira: (Soon, Katalina will graduate and leave Albion... and the two of us will be separated.)

Chancellor: Well, well! So you've become a skyfarer, Lady Vira!

Vira: Yes. I now spend my days flying across the skies as part of a skyfaring crew.

Vira: This is the captain of the crew, (Captain). (Captain) is a most valorous and admired person in whom I place my trust.

Chancellor: Ah, so you're (Captain)! It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance. I've heard many good things about you.

(Captain) hurries to return the diplomatic gentleman's greeting, almost knocking over a glass of water.

As the party warms up, guests begin to walk around the castle hall, conversing among themselves while enjoying the luxurious buffet in front of them.

The ball is split into two parts, with the first being a banquet and the second a dance party.

Vyrn: So that guy back there was the chancellor... After that was some nobleman, and then a rich merchant... It's just one important guy after another!

Lyria: Vira, you're amazing! You're so calm even in a place like this...

Katalina: Yeah, it's really impressive. You don't feel nervous in the least among influential people, do you?

Vira: Hehe. I appreciate the compliments.

Lyria: ...

(Captain) notices a change in Lyria's expression as Lyria watches the exchange between Katalina and Vira.

Lyria: I-I don't feel nervous either! Katalina taught me all kinds of things before!

Lyria: Let's see... When you greet someone, first you stand straight, then pull one foot back, and...

Katalina: Heheh, that's perfect. But be careful not to step on the hem of your dress.

Lyria: Thanks, Katalina!

It is then that Vira hears a small voice from the corner of the hall.

Vira: ...

Vira looks over to see that the guest of honor, from whom she received the invitation to the ball, has made his arrival.

Vira: I'm sorry, Katalina. I must go and exchange courtesies with a few guests...

Katalina: Okay. I'll take care of things here.

Vira: Thank you. If you'll excuse me.

Vira: ...

Vira leaves the crew to talk with other guests at the party, but remains alert as she keeps an eye on Katalina's surroundings.

Gentleman: The lady over there in the blue dress... I've never seen anyone more beautiful! It would be my utmost pleasure to ask her for a dance...

Vira: (That man over there! He's eyeing Katalina with a most distasteful look...)

Vira: Good evening, I don't believe we've met. I'm Vira Lillie.

Gentleman: Hm? Oh, could it be that you're Albion's former Lord Commander? It's a pleasure to meet you.

Vira: (Insolent man... I'll make sure you have no chance to ask Katalina for a dance.)

Vira: (I'm the only one who can be Katalina's partner... Isn't that right, Katalina?)

Vira intercepts the man just as he is about to approach Katalina.

However, as Vira is preoccupied with him, another man steps up to Katalina.

Nobleman: Divine lady, may I have the pleasure of introducing myself? My name is Spence Permm.

Nobleman: I serve as the lord of a residence within close proximity of this castle. Pleased to make your acquaintance.

Katalina: This is an honor... I'm Katalina Aryze, a humble skyfarer.

Nobleman: Well, I'll be! The house of Aryze is a noble family famed for their swordsmanship... Are you well versed in the art of swordsmanship as well, Lady Katalina?

Lyria: Yes! Katalina is really strong! Oh, um, I'm Lyria!

(Captain) greets the man and explains that all of them travel together as a crew.

Nobleman: I see... To possess both strength and beauty—I must say, you are most captivating...

Vira: Pardon my interruption, Lord Permm.

Nobleman: Lady Vira! I'm happy to see you faring well. It's been a long time since I last had the pleasure of conversing with you at the dinner party.

Vira: Yes, I believe I was still serving as Albion's Lord Commander at the time. It has been a while.

Vira: I noticed you were with my fellow crew members, so I thought to take this opportunity to offer my greetings.

Nobleman: Oh! Then these must be...

Vira: Yes. They are essentially my family now, you see...

Vira: (In my moment of absence, Katalina's beauty has already attracted the attention of a pair of fiends...)

Vira: (But I can't afford to let anyone get close with her today...)

As Vira continues to converse with a smile on her face, she is filled with a new determination.

Two as One: Scene 2

Vira and Katalina are reflecting on their days at the academy when a nobleman comes up to ask Katalina for a dance. Vira and the nobleman face off in a passionate dance battle to determine Katalina's rightful partner.

---

Katalina: Sigh... What should I do...

Vira: Are you worried about the dance at the graduation ceremony?

Vira: The valedictorian and student representative are required to dance in front of everyone at the ceremony, aren't they...

Katalina: Yes... I don't like standing out.

Katalina: And they're telling me to hurry up and decide on a partner so we can start practicing... I'm really feeling the pressure.

Vira: Who are you thinking of asking?

Katalina: That's the thing...

Lyria: Munch, munch... It's so juicy and just melts in your mouth... This steak here is really good too!

Katalina: Hehe. Don't stuff too much into your mouth all at once, Lyria. Take small bites.

After briefly mingling with other guests, (Captain) and the crew are now enjoying the extravagant feast in front of them.

The first part of the ball gradually begins to wrap up. The tables are cleared away, transforming the hall into a dance floor.

Vira: ...

Vira watches as the venue changes, dazed and lost in her memories.

Katalina: What are you going to do, Vira?

Vira: ...

Katalina: Vira?

Vira: Huh? O-oh, I'm sorry, Katalina. You were saying?

Katalina: Are you all right? You were talking the whole time with all those people—maybe you're tired.

Vira: There's no need to worry. I'm fine.

Vira: I was just lost in thought and feeling... a little nostalgic.

Katalina: Nostalgic?

Vira: Yes. Do you remember fretting about who to choose as your partner back at the academy?

Katalina: Yes... I do.

Vira: And who will you choose as your partner tonight, Katalina?

Katalina: Well, I don't plan to stand out too much tonight. What about you, Vira?

Vira: Hehe, that's just like you. I'm waiting... to be asked.

Katalina: By someone here?

Vira: Yes.

Katalina: ...

Vira: ...

As Katalina pauses to think, Vira stands close by, gazing at her intently.

Nobleman: My apologies for interrupting your conversation. Lady Katalina, if I may...

Vira: ...!

Katalina: Oh, the gentleman from earlier...

Nobleman: I hope I'm not disturbing you.

Nobleman: You see, I just couldn't get the beautiful image of you out of my head, Lady Katalina...

Nobleman: If you don't mind, would you give me the honor of being your partner for the dance tonight?

Katalina: O-oh! Me?

Vira: (He couldn't have cut in at a worse time! And he's serious...)

Vira: ...

With this unexpected turn of events, Vira carefully considers her options before coming to a calm decision.

Vira: Lord Permm, please wait.

Nobleman: Lady Vira?

Vira: I'm terribly sorry. I didn't mean to interrupt you as you were making your invitation.

Vira: However, if there is one thing that I cannot yield tonight, it is this.

Vira: Tonight, what stands beside the quiet blue can only be a burning flame of red... I pray you understand.

Nobleman: ...!

Nobleman: Lady Vira, I understand your intentions.

Nobleman: However, I feel it within my heart... that this encounter must be fate.

Vira: With all due respect, fate is on my side.

As sparks fly between them in their clash to win the right to accompany Katalina, the orchestra begins to play on the dance floor.

Nobleman: Since neither of us appears to have any intention of giving in... why don't we decide this in a manner befitting of nobles?

Vira: I concur. A single dance will speak louder than a thousand words.

Vira and the nobleman take their positions, closing their eyes to focus on the music.

Katalina: Hey, Vira, just what are you...

Vira: Please watch, Katalina... as I prove my feelings!

In a single moment, the two begin to whirl across the dance floor, devoting their bodies and souls to expressing through dance the burning emotions inside each of them.

Two as One: Scene 3

Katalina remembers that she once asked Vira to be her partner for a ball at the academy that never came to be. Katalina finally fulfills this promise by inviting Vira to dance. Vira's deepest wish comes true as the two of them waltz gracefully into the night.

---

Vira: Whew...

Nobleman: Huff... Huff...

As the music comes to a close, Vira and the nobleman finish their dance and turn to face each other.

Nobleman: I didn't think you would go so far...

Nobleman: I accept my defeat, Lady Vira. Your performance was a beautiful display of dancing flames.

Vira: Thank you. Through this challenge you have proved your sincerity, and for that you have my respect as well as my gratitude.

Nobleman: The one who should be grateful is me. This has been a valuable experience.

Nobleman: I pray that tonight will be one of happiness for the both of you.

The man gives them an earnest smile and waves his goodbye before disappearing into the crowd.

Katalina: Did you say challenge?

Vira: Hehe. Katalina, do you remember now?

Vira: There were challenges like this back when we were in Albion too...

Vira: To protect what we cannot afford to yield. To decide our partners for the ball. And to keep our promises...

Katalina: ...!

Katalina: Vira, could it be that you...

Seeing Katalina coming to something of a realization, Vira smiles gently at her.

Katalina salutes in Albion fashion and offers her hand to Vira.

Katalina: As valedictorian, I, Katalina Aryze, ask you to be my partner for tonight's dance.

Vira: As student representative and upcoming valedictorian, I, Vira Lillie, humbly accept.

Vira takes Katalina's hand, and the two of them move gracefully to the dance floor.

The music rings out across the brightly lit hall as Vira and Katalina begin to swing, their light steps adding to the rhythm of the melody.

Katalina: If I remember correctly, the valedictorian is the one who's supposed to ask, right?

Vira: Yes. I'll never forget.

Katalina: About the ball after the graduation ceremony... Can I count on you, Vira?

Vira: K-Katalina!

Vira: Are you sure you'd like to leave such a big responsibility to me?

Katalina: Yes. With you there, even if I make a mistake, I know you'll cover for me.

Katalina: There's no one else I can count on but you... because I know I can trust you.

Vira: Katalina... You can count on me! I'll see to it that this becomes a celebration you won't forget!

Vira: Finally... Finally, it's done!

Vira: A dress spun from the threads of fate—the only one of its kind.

On Vira's desk are stacks of documents and tools for the purpose of making her dress.

After many complications and obstacles, the finished product has finally appeared before her—a single dress in a shade of deep crimson.

Vira: With this dress, I'll do my best to ensure this special occasion will be perfect for Katalina.

Vira: Then hopefully, my feelings will...

But this was a promise not to be fulfilled.

Albion's Lord Commander passed away suddenly, and after the martial arts tournament, the situation changed drastically.

Katalina: So you've been waiting... for me to invite you.

Vira: Yes... As selfish as it is, I've been waiting for you.

Vira is overjoyed as tears well up in her eyes.

Vira: All this time, I wanted to show you this dress... This dress that I'd chosen just for you.

Katalina: It suits you. You look beautiful.

Vira: Katalina...

Gentleman: What an exquisite dance! It's as if they have wings on their backs...

Nobleman: Like angels in some beautiful painting... A scene from heaven.

As light radiates from Vira and Katalina's dance, the other guests fall into a hush. They watch mesmerized, forgetting their own steps.

The dazzling hall, the glorious music...

It is as if everything had been prepared for Vira and Katalina's sake.

But Vira remains oblivious to her surroundings. All of her senses are focused on the person in front of her—Katalina.

Vira: (Oh, Katalina... I wish we could dance on like this forever.)

Under the bright lights, their two shadows slowly merge and become one.

Vira: (Those words I wanted to say to you back then... They're no longer needed, are they?)

A distant smile plays on Vira's lips as she continues to dance, spellbound.

Eventually the music fades away, and with that, the dance of blue and red comes to an end. Vira and Katalina find themselves enveloped in a thunder of applause.

What Vira had wished on her crimson dress has finally come true. She breaks into a genuine smile.

Among the cheers that surround them, Vira gazes on at Katalina in a dream-like state.

There is a promise a girl has yet to fulfill.

There are words this girl has yet to say to the woman she admires most in all the skies.

The words are written in a certain diary, over traces of the many earlier versions that preceded them.

The date written in the corner of this entry is just a few days prior to the passing of Albion's Lord Commander.

Vira: Katalina, my heartfelt congratulations on your graduation.

Vira: Although we won't be able to see each other for a while, soon I, too, will graduate—then I will be free to follow you wherever you may go.

Vira: Even if we leave this academy, no matter where in the skies you are, Katalina... You and I will always be together.

Vira: My beloved Katalina... I look forward to spending an eternity with you.
