Level 40 quote

The time I've spent with you on the battlefield has had an immeasurable effect on my skill development. Academic lectures can only provide so much. There is no substitute for the focused pressure of real battle. So I suppose I should thank you for calling me here to this world, then, <player>. I hope to use every mote of strength I gain here on the battlefield back in Fódlan, so please... Allow me to stay here with you a while longer, as your faithful comrade and student.

Level 40 quote

Time may pass at the same rate for all, but not everyone gets the same amount of it. I can't control how much time I have. I can only decide what to do with what I'm given. If my time is shorter than others', then it would be a waste to spend any of it grieving. No—it merely means I must accomplish more with less. To that end, I plan to learn all I can in Askr. For my parents, and for my friends...I plan to achieve great things.

Duo Conversation

Lysithea: *sigh* There's still a mountain of presents to sort through. Who'd have thought that helping at the winter festival would be such hard work? I just want to be done so we can enjoy the festival. I saw a lot of delicious-looking sweets at the plaza...
Lute: Lysithea. There's no time to rest. According to my calculations, if we stop now, we won't be done here until dawn.
Lysithea: I-I know that. I was just saying...
Lute: So, you actually want to go to the festival? It does seem like something a child would enjoy.
Lysithea: Hey! Who are you calling a child? It's not like I want to go to a festival! Who needs baked sweets anyway? All those cakes. And cookies with cream. And berry-covered tarts. And—
Lute: You retain quite a high level of detail for someone who isn't interested. I'm impressed by how observant you are.
Lysithea: Indeed I do. But to be sure, we ought to investigate further, and if possible, confirm the flavors as well!
Lute: Ah, the captivation of a curious mind. That I can understand. But now I've grown hungry from all of this manual labor. Maybe it would be in our best interest to investigate those sweets.
Lysithea: Yes! We should take a break to enjoy—I mean investigate—the festival.
Lute: That could be a worthwhile use of our time. Upon consideration, I am now thirsty. Tell me, Lysithea, did you also happen to observe sweetened beverages for sale in the plaza?
Lysithea: No, I didn't see those! You're very perceptive, Lute.
Lute: Yes. I'm just that good.
Lysithea: I think I'm pretty good too, you know. Anyway, let's go. We can prove how perceptive we are at the plaza!
Lute: Now that does sound enjoyable.

Level 40 quote

Lute: Excellent work today, Lysithea. It was no small feat getting all of those gifts delivered on time.
Lysithea: Careful planning and earnest effort were key. But I failed to account for how exhausting it would be.
Lute: Perhaps this card will lift your spirits, then? It's from the children we met, according to <player>.
Lysithea: Oh, how sweet! I can't quite read the messy handwriting, but it's clear they loved the gifts we sent them.
Lute: Although we did not enact this plan to earn any sort of reward, the card is a pleasant result nonetheless.
Lysithea: It's just these sorts of surprises that makes our experiments so interesting. We must treasure this!

Level 40 quote

I have to admit, I didn't see the point of me working a job like this at first. It took time away from my studies. The more I do it, though, the more I realize that I'm actually learning a lot. I'd say it's been worthwhile! Serving people is hard work. For one thing, it requires you to understand them really well. You have to anticipate their needs by picking out and preparing teas and snacks you think they'll like. That means you have to be studious, observant, and determined to give everyone the best experience. Speaking of—I've put together a little selection for you. So, which of these teas do you like best?
