You're always so diligent. Remember to rely on your allies for strength. And I say, think of me as a brother.
— At the castle.
I wish we could spar with our divine weapons. But I am aware that my Raijinto is not like yours at all. I must admit, I find it a troubling concept that your weapon discharges... Heroes.

I advise you to meditate each day, <player>. It quells bad thoughts and promotes the best ones.

Level 40 quote

Care to join me for some meditation? Then close your eyes. Empty your mind. Envision a relaxing place. I am thinking of Hoshido—cherry-blossom trees in bloom...rain in the gardens...a moon on the wane. I must admit that when I've been meditating of late, I have also envisioned something new. Places from this realm...the faces of members in the Order of Heroes...and, most of all...I see you, standing on the battlefield. That image lets me achieve inner balance like no other. I hope that you would feel just the same from my presence here. One more thing—in my own kingdom, I would never pledge my katana in service to another. But here, it is my honor and my privilege to serve you to the end with my blade.

Level 40 quote

I must admit, being summoned to this world and called a Hero has lit a fire inside me. The warrior within me feels joy at fighting alongside Heroes from so many other worlds... And also pride at being able to lend my skills on so many different battlefields. However, what I've felt most keenly since arriving is just how precious peace and tranquility truly are. Endless fighting should by no means be the norm for any country. We must restore peace to this kingdom, just as we once did for my homeland Hoshido. I wish to one day soar through the peaceful skies of Askr. You and I can achieve this goal together. But for now, we must continue to soar into battle... Let's fly, <player>!

The summer is a season of festivals. Men and women, young and old alike—we all join in a circle to dance!

You're getting quite good at that dance. Were you a performer back in your world? You know, this dance is just one part of Hoshido's summer festival. The festival is also a sacred time of year, dedicated to remembering those we've lost. But in truth, it's more a festival for the living. Remembering the dead gives us the strength we need to carry on. Everyone comes together to dance and laugh, our hearts joining as one. Come. Let us dance until the sun sets so that I might never forget this summer spent with you.

Ryoma: Samurai at Ease

At the castle

I am Ryoma, High Prince of Hoshido. I have heard talk of a secluded spring nearby. Would you show me the way?
— When summoned.
Make the water as hot as it can get, I say! Battling the heat is a test of fortitude. It is to truly bathe.
— At the castle.
In Hoshido, it is quite popular to bathe in a spring in winter. Stepping into the bath as snow falls down around you...there are no words to describe that feeling.
— At the castle.
Bathing in this spring won't just heal injuries from battle—it will soothe the fatigue of the day. Join me!
— At the castle.
Too hot for you, eh? There are other springs that are a little bit cooler. You ought to find one of those.
— At the castle.
When I'm soaking in the bath, I may look relaxed, but I keep my blade in reach. If foes attack, I will be ready.

The camaraderie we warriors enjoy during a good soak... There is nothing quite like it!

Level 40 quote

A warrior must never neglect training and always strive for a clear and focused mind. Tension is the enemy of strength. It could cost you dearly, all in a single moment. Training is not just about learning to wield your weapon. It is also about preparing yourself for battle. If you are not ready for the fight when it comes to you, that is your own failure. In my training, the hot spring is an essential tool. It is the support I lean on as I look toward my next fight. I will show you my appreciation for revealing this secluded spring to me when next we fight together.
