Duo conversation

“	Ayra: How vexing. I would never have believed it so difficult to serve a simple beverage. Mercedes: You'll get the hang of it soon! No one would expect a princess to be trained to serve... Ayra: True. But even compared to other princesses, I know little of these things. The truth is I spent my time not with a teacup, but with a blade in my hand. But that is no excuse. Mercedes: Well, I'm not inclined toward physical activity. We all focus on what we're good at. You are very strong, and you worked hard to become so. Tea was not your priority. Ayra: Yes. I needed to safeguard my nephew, Shannan—our prince. Mercedes: That is a heavy responsibility. Ayra: Times were hard. In that regard, I was no different from anyone. Mercedes: You're quite strict, aren't you? Even with yourself. You remind me of some of my classmates from Garreg Mach. So for today, let us simply relax and enjoy ourselves. I think it's time for some tea! We could enjoy it together. Oh! There are some lovely seats over by those flowers. Ayra: That would be nice. You seem to have a gift—I can allow myself to relax around you. Mercedes: I'm so glad! I have loved spending time with you. Ayra: It would be my pleasure to pour you some tea. Er, if that is all right. Mercedes: It certainly is. And I will happily teach you the technique!	”	— Duo conversation

Level 40 quote

“	Mercedes: I don't mean to harp on this, Ayra, but it's OK to relax a little. There's no competition in enjoying tea! Ayra: Perhaps... But I still must work hard for the happiness of those attending the party. Mercedes: Your earnestness is admirable, but teatime is quite different from sword training! It's about making time to do nothing and just rest. It's important to give yourself that space! Ayra: Yielding results from inaction is not a concept I am familiar with... I will admit I did not expect to find so much wisdom in something like a tea party. Mercedes: I've found that the more you learn about tea, the more fun it becomes! And it's much easier to relax when you're having fun. I hope you're able to have fun today, Ayra!	”	— After reaching level 40 at five-star rarity
