Elise: Hya! HIIIYAA!
Corrin: Um, Elise? Why are you throwing punches in the middle of the field?
Elise: Waaah! Corrin! I-I'm not doing anything! Really. Not a thing. Or, I mean, I was just here to pick flowers. YEAH! A pretty girl picking pretty flowers...
Corrin: Oh, I see. Are you sure about that?
Elise: But of course! I wanted to make you a lovely bouquet. I'M JUST TOO SWEET!
Corrin: OK then. It just seemed an awful lot like you were practicing your punches...
Elise: ... FINE! You caught me. You're just too clever for my devious deceptions. The truth is, lately I've been feeling like kind of a burden to everyone... I was hoping if I trained secretly I could become as strong as you are one day!
Corrin: Elise, please don't say that. I promise, no one thinks of you as a burden.
Elise: You're sweet to say that, Corrin. I love that you're always looking out for me. But that's exactly why I need to train! That way I can look out for myself instead!
Corrin: This clearly means a whole lot to you.
Elise: Oh, it means everything to me! Everything! See, watch this...KAPOW! My killer left hook. KABOOM! My right fist of fury! Kapow! Kaboom! HYAAA!
Corrin: Ah, wow. I'm impressed by your... exuberance. Well then, if it means that much to you, I'd be happy to help you out. After all, training is twice as effective with two minds at work.
Elise: You mean it, Corrin?! Thank you, thank you, thank you! You're the best! I love you THE MOST!!
Corrin: Hahaha, you're very welcome. Now then, let's start with some cardio. Ready...GO!
Elise: Heehee, yay! Here I gooooo!!

Corrin: Hello, Elise. Shall we start our training for today?
Elise: Hrm... *sigh*
Corrin: Elise, are you feeling all right?
Elise: Not really. It's just... I've been training so hard, but I still feel like a big ol' burden.
Corrin: Nonsense. You've already improved quite a bit. Be patient. These things take time.
Elise: Do you mean it? You really think I've improved a lot?
Corrin: Absolutely. But the only way you'll keep getting better is to work hard every day.
Elise: You're right! No more moping around! I'm gonna do my best from here on out!
Corrin: That's the spirit!
Elise: So what are we working on today? Kicks? Punches? Intimidating faces?!
Corrin: Today we'll be working on your upper-body strength. Time for some push-ups! Go on, drop and give me twenty!
Elise: T-t-twenty push-ups? Like, in a row?! Is that even possible? And besides, aren't push-ups for big, burly, muscular types? Not cute little girls?
Corrin: That's just silly. Push-ups are for everyone. Everyone serious about training, anyway.
Elise: I see... Well, if you say so, Corrin. Here goes nothing...
Elise: One... Two... Three... F-four...
Corrin: You're doing great. Keep it up!
Elise: Fiiiiive... Ugh...
Corrin: What's the matter? You're not quitting already, are you? If you want to get stronger, you can't give up when things get tough.
Elise: But...my arms are wobbly... and I'm getting all SWEATY.
Corrin: No pain, no gain. When you can't take any more, remember why you're training. You want to be a stronger version of yourself, right? This is how you'll get there. Think you can handle it?
Elise: I...I CAN! I want to be better! Stronger! SWEATIER!!
Corrin: That's the Elise I know! Now let's try that again. This time, drop and give me ten!
Elise: OK! One! Two! Threeee!

Corrin: Training time, Elise. Are you ready to get started?
Elise: ...
Corrin: Elise?! What's going on? Why are you crying?
Elise: I...I... *sniffle* *sob* I'm sorry, Corrin. I just feel... *SNIFF* I'm just so pathetic...
Corrin: Why would you say that? You've been doing so well!
Elise: ... I-I think I've gotten a tiny bit stronger, thanks to you. But... But... *sob* But when I encounter an enemy on the battlefield all alone, I still get so s-scared! If I keep being such a weak baby, I'll never stop being a burden to everyone!
Corrin: Elise...
Elise: I want to help protect everyone... I wanna protect you and Xander... and Leo... and C-C-Camilla... and everyone else too... I just want everyone to be safe and happy and to *sniff* live peacefully. But for that to happen, we've just got to win this stupid war! I can't keep holding us back by being the weak link...
Corrin: Elise... You sweet, silly girl. Dry those tears. I understand how you feel, but I promise things aren't so bleak.
Elise: Corrin...
Corrin: War isn't just about fighting. To truly win, you must believe in what you're fighting for. You have such a pure desire for peace, and that's invaluable in times like these. So no, Elise, you're definitely not a burden. You're a ray of light in the dark. Now show me that smile, and please, never stop trying to improve. You're doing great.
Elise: Corrin... Th-thank you, Corrin! You always know just what to say. I love you so much!
Corrin: I love you too, Elise.
Elise: All right then, no more messing around! I'm gonna become the best me ever! I won't stop until I'm the invincible, unstoppable, legendary princess of Nohr!
Corrin: Haha, that's the spirit!

Elise: Corrin, is that you? What are you doing out here in the field?
Corrin: WAAH! Elise! I... I wasn't doing anything. I mean, I was doing push-ups. Yes, that's it. Lots of push-ups.
Elise: It didn't look like you were doing push-ups. Trust me, I know what they look like. Are those... Wait a minute, were you picking flowers? *gasp* Oh my gosh, those are gorgeous! Can I see them?! Let me hold them!
Corrin: Um...
Elise: Mmmm, what a lovely smell! Ooooh, and they're so PRETTY! Heheh, I see what's going on, you sly devil. So that's why you were sneaking around. You have a sweetheart, and these flowers are for her! Am I right? I'm right, right?
Corrin: ...
Elise: HEEHEE, I knew it! Now spill the beans! Who are you going to give these to? These particular flowers symbolize eternal love, so it better be someone special.
Corrin: Yes, Elise. I'm well aware of the special significance these flowers hold. So, ehem...stay right there, OK? And...hold out your hands.
Elise: What, why? I don't understand...
Corrin: These flowers... These special flowers... I was gathering them for you.
Elise: But, Corrin... Giving these flowers to someone means you l-l-love them! Like, LOVE love them!
Corrin: Yes, I know. That's exactly why I wanted to give them to you. Elise, I know we've been like siblings for a long time now...but we're not siblings. I gave you those flowers because I care for you, very deeply. I want to take care of you.
Elise: ... D-does this mean... Are you asking me...?
Corrin: Darling Elise... Will you marry me? I want to spend the rest of my life keeping you safe and making you smile.
Elise: Oh, Corrin... I'm so happy! But... *sniff* Do you really think I'll make a good wife? Are you sure about this? Of all the people in the world, you're the last person I want to be a burden to...
Corrin: Not this again! Elise, you're brilliant and perfect just as you are. Just keep acting as you normally would. You have nothing to worry about.
Elise: Maybe you're right! Maybe I don't need to change at all. After all, I already keep you in my heart when I'm playing or fighting... And also when I'm laughing or crying... Now I can keep you in my arms as well!
Corrin: That sounds perfect.
Elise: Heehee, I like the sound of this. Oh! But what should I call you now?! Just plain ol' Corrin doesn't sound nearly special enough for my hubby!
Corrin: You can call me whatever you like.
Elise: Lemme think... Hmmm... Ooh! I know! Can I call you..."Honey"?
Corrin: !!
Elise: Wh-what's wrong? Did I say it weird?
Corrin: No, not at all! It's far from weird. Actually, it's wonderful.
Elise: Heehee, I'm so glad to hear you say that! I love you so much...Honey!
Corrin: Elise... Thank you. You've made me so happy.
(Confession Scene)
Elise: I promise to be a great wife! I love you more than anything EVER! Never leave me.

Elise: Jakob! Hi!
Jakob: Milady. I'm glad to see you're in such high spirits today.
Elise: Thanks! Say, do you have some time to play with me?
Jakob: Play what?
Elise: Hide-and-seek, of course!
Jakob: ...I must admit, I'm a bit surprised to hear you suggest a game like that. I thought you had long outgrown such childish pastimes.
Elise: Well, sometimes it's good to get in touch with your inner child! Like now! OK, I'm gonna hide, and you try to find me! Heeheehee. You don't stand a chance!
(Elise leaves)
Jakob: …
Elise: Um... You're going to come look for me, aren't you?
Jakob: I'm sorry, milady. I'm afraid I'm far too old for a game like hide-and-seek.
Elise: Aw, c'mon! Then what WILL you play with me?
Jakob: Hmm... How about a game of chess? Just set up the pieces, and I'll come join you.
Elise: OK, will do! See ya soon!
(Elise leaves)
Jakob: ... Now that she's gone, perhaps I can finally get some work done.
B Support
Elise: Jakob! Wanna play something with me?
Jakob: I would be honored. You know where to find the chessboard, so—
Elise: Oh no! I am NOT falling for that one again! Last time you wanted to play chess, I got it all set up and you never showed! I waited for you for hours before I got fed up and just played a game by myself.
Jakob: Truly? Then I bet the practice has made you a better player already. Perhaps this time you will stand a chance of beating me!
Elise: No! I don't wanna play chess! Let's do something else!
Jakob: I apologize, milady, but I'm afraid I don't know any other games you might like.
Elise: Then...let's go on a trip! There's a beautiful field of flowers not far from here.
Jakob: Ah, but I am far too old to be going out to visit flowers. Curse my aching bones...
Elise: Oh no. You're not getting out of this one! C'mon! Let's GO!
Jakob: *sigh* Very well.
(Jakob leaves)
Elise: So, let's see... I put this one around this, and then I slide the next one in here?
Jakob: Hm? Is that a wreath?
Elise: Yep! It's been a while since I made one though, so it's not going as well as I'd hoped.
Jakob: I see. Well, this was fun. I'll be off, then. Duty calls.
Elise: What?! We just got here!
Jakob: You've found a way to entertain yourself without me, so I see no reason to remain.
Elise: You have to stay!
Jakob: ...As you wish, milady.
Elise: It will only be a sec. I've just got to finish your gift!
Jakob: My gift?
Elise: Yep! Call it a token of appreciation for spending time with me.
Jakob: I see. Then I suppose I'll have to make a garland for you as well, milady.
Elise: Really? You will?
Jakob: Yes. Though I should warn you, mine will be quite beautiful. It will likely put your little attempt over there to shame.
Elise: Heehee, no way! I'm just getting started!
A Support
Elise: Jakob! Do you have some time to play with me today?
Jakob: I'm sorry, milady. My to-do list is rather full at the moment.
Elise: Then...can I follow you around until you finish your work?
Jakob: Lady Elise... A princess should try to show a bit more consideration for others' needs.
Elise: Oh. OK. I'm sorry, Jakob.
Jakob: Please don't apologize. It's part of my job to help mold you into a model princess.
Elise: I guess so... And besides...
Jakob: Something on your mind?
Elise: Well, I know what we're facing. I know I shouldn't waste time playing around. And I especially shouldn't be wasting anyone else's time. Every day, people are hurt or killed. There isn't time for us to just relax and have fun. But I can't help but want to help everyone smile as much as they possibly can. And sometimes I think if we all played just a little bit more then maybe it would help. I don't know. It just doesn't seem right when nobody looks happy.
Jakob: You are the kindest soul I've ever known, milady. ...Very well. We shall play together.
Elise: Really?! But what about your to-do list?
Jakob: It can wait for the time being. So...how about a game of hide-and-seek?
Elise: Yaaay! I'll go hide!
S Support
Elise: *sigh*
Jakob: Lady Elise, is something the matter?
Elise: Do you think I'm too childish for my age?
Jakob: Oh, unequivocally.
Elise: Jakob! Geez! Would it kill you to pull your punches every now and then?
Jakob: I merely answered your question honestly. Now, my question to you is: Why are you worrying about such things?
Elise: I don't know. I want people to see me as more of an adult. I'm not a kid anymore... *sigh*
Jakob: Temperament and outward appearances aside, you ARE an adult, milady. Truly, you shouldn't worry about it so. Even I see you as a grown lady now.
Elise: You do?
Jakob: I do. If I didn't, I would not... *ahem* Well... I would not adore you as I do.
Elise: You? Adore ME? You mean like...you think I'm adorable? Thanks, but I don't really see what that has to do with being a mature woman.
Jakob: Well, you ARE adorable, but that is not quite what I meant. Please, allow me to clarify. What I meant to say is that I love you.
Elise: You WHAT?!
Jakob: That said... Milady, would you do me the honor of being mine?
Elise: I-I...
Jakob: Please, Elise. It would make me happier than you could possibly imagine.
Elise: Oh, Jakob...
Jakob: Well? Do you have an answer for me?
Elise: Of course! I love you too. I've loved you for so long! Let's be together forever! Jakob... Thanks for seeing me as the adult I am. I wish more people saw me like that. But if only one person does...I'm glad it's you. I love you, Jakob!
Jakob: There is no need for thanks. Now, will you join me in the flower field, my darling? I would like to make a wreath for you to celebrate the joining of our fates.
Elise: Ooh! Ooh! And then I can make one for you too! Teehee! This is going to be the best life ever!

Elise: Oh, hey! Kaze!
Kaze: Greetings, princess. How may I be of service?
Elise: Let's play! Pleeeaaaase?! I am SO BORED.
Kaze: Well, ehem, I suppose I have nothing of great importance to do at the moment...
Elise: You don't sound very excited... Do you not like me?
Kaze: I like you quite well. Rather, I'm concerned one such as I will make for a poor playmate.
Elise: Why, because you're all serious and stuff? Phooey! I think we'll make great friends! One day I'd like to make friends with the whole army. The horses too! But you're at the top of my list.
Kaze: I am honored, milady.
Elise: Does that mean you'll play with me?!
Kaze: It would be dishonorable to refuse such a sweet request from a princess. If you consider me worthy of spending your free time with, I will gladly join your game.
Elise: Yaaaaaay! Thanks, Kaze! Alrighty, let's play... Hide-and-seek!
Kaze: As you wish.
Elise: Kee hee, sucker! You have NO IDEA how good I am at this game. OK, you're it! Count to 30 and then come find me...if you can.
Kaze: Understood.
Elise: Let's get started! Ready...set...GO! HEE HEE HEEEE!
(Elise leaves)
Kaze: 27...28...29...30. Now where could... ... ... (Does she...really think she's hidden? Well, this is awkward.) (I imagine she'd be upset if I found her right away. Perhaps I should...hmmm...) OH DEAR, WHERE IS THE PRINCESS?! I've looked everywhere. I may NEVER find her. How did she manage to disappear like that?
Elise: ... HEE HEE HEE! I was right here the whole time, Kaze!
Kaze: Princess! I am shocked! I never would have guessed you were behind the bookcase. You weren't kidding when you said you were good at this game.
Elise: Aren't I the best at hiding?!
Kaze: Without question.
Elise: Yaaay! If a cool ninja like you is impressed, I must be even better than I thought!
Kaze: It must be so.
Elise: Hee hee, that was so much fun! I gotta go, but let's play again soon!
Kaze: As you wish. Next time I shall not lose!
Elise: We'll see about that, hee hee! Bye, Kaze!
(Elise leaves)
Kaze: I hope I did the right thing... Well, she appears to be happy, so no harm done.
B Support
Elise: Kaaaaazeeee! Let's plaaaay!
Kaze: Hello, Princess Elise. What would you like to do? Shall we play hide-and-seek again?
Elise: Yeah! It's my favorite, and I like playing it with you more than anybody else!
Kaze: You seem to really love that game. May I ask why that is?
Elise: Hmm, well it's probably because I used to play it every day when I was little.
Kaze: Every day, you say? You must have enjoyed that a great deal.
Elise: I did! Well...kind of. Actually, to be honest, most of the time it wasn't fun at all. The person I played with would always fall or trip or something and ruin the game. And the other person I always played with would hide in the most obvious places! Sometimes his butt would be sticking out from behind a door. No one has any skill!
Kaze: Well, at least the camaraderie must have been enjoyable.
Elise: Oh, I suppose. But I always wanted to play with someone who was really good!
Kaze: Is that so?
Elise: And now I've finally found a worthy opponent! We're pretty much equally matched. I don't say that lightly!
Kaze: Thank you, milady. A ninja could ask for no greater a compliment.
Elise: All I ask, Kaze, is that you don't hold back even though I'm a princess. I hate that kind of nonsense, so don't be afraid to show me what you're made of.
Kaze: I shall not disappoint, milady.
Elise: That's a promise, then!
Kaze: I am bound by duty to stay true to my word. I will indeed show you "what I'm made of."
A Support
Elise: Kaaaaaazeeee!
Kaze: I'm over here, Princess Elise. How are you today?
Elise: I'm great, now that I finally found you. Wanna play? You KNOW you do!
Kaze: Certainly. I'm taking a break from training at the moment, so your timing is perfect. I am grateful that you choose to spend so much of your time with me.
Elise: Tee hee, it's because you're my only true hide-and-seek rival! You've really stepped up your game lately! And it's also that... Well...
Kaze: What is it, Lady Elise?
Elise: Well, I love having this rare opportunity to talk to someone from Hoshido. I never thought I'd get the chance to be close friends with a Hoshidan! That's part of why us playing together is so special. It makes me really happy!
Kaze: Princess Elise...
Elise: I hope you feel the same way about me, Kaze. I so enjoy your company!
Kaze: I wish I could see the world through such pure eyes as yours, princess. You've truly impressed me by expressing such a sweet and noble sentiment.
Elise: My hiding and seeking are...noble?
Kaze: I'm referring to your desire for a friendly exchange between warring kingdoms. Never change, milady. Will you promise me that?
Elise: I'm not sure I understand, but OK!
Kaze: Now then, shall we begin?
Elise: Yes, please!
S Support
Elise: ...
Kaze: Princess Elise?
Elise: Hmm? Oh...hello, Kaze. Sorry, was it my turn to hide?
Kaze: Pardon the intrusion, but you seem to be in poor spirits. Are you under the weather? I always enjoy your company, but if you're not well, we should play another time. May I call a doctor for you? Or perhaps you just need some rest...
Elise: Oh, no, it's nothing like that. I feel fine... *sigh*
Kaze: Elise... Is something troubling you?
Elise: Weeell...
Kaze: I hope you know you can tell me anything. Please let me in. Maybe I can help.
Elise: ... I was just wondering... Um... Do you...like me?
Kaze: Of course I do. I consider you to be one of my dearest friends.
Elise: Th-that's not what I meant. I don't like you as a friend, Kaze... I...I think I love you!
Kaze: Princess Elise...
Elise: At first I thought I just enjoyed playing with you. But it's more than that... Y-you're all I ever think about! I want to spend all my time with you, for all my days. Isn't that love, Kaze?
Kaze: I believe so, milady.
Elise: I...I want to be with you, Kaze. Can I...can I maybe... Would it be OK if... if I was your girl?
Kaze: ...
Elise: Oh. I... Sorry. J-just forget I said anything. You probably think of me as a dumb kid.
Kaze: Elise, I...
Elise: That's why you used to go easy on me, until I made you promise not to hold back. You pretended to look around even though you knew where I was right away.
Kaze: You know about that? I'm truly sorry. I thought it would make you happy.
Elise: I was happy just to spend time with you.
Kaze: You never allowed me to answer your question, Elise. About being my girl...
Elise: Oh, don't remind me! I don't even care. It's stupid, forget I said anything.
Kaze: I don't want you to be my girl, Elise.
Elise: I knew it... *sniff* D-don't worry about it. I understand.
Kaze: You didn't let me finish. I want you to be so much more. I want you to be my wife.
Elise: Kaze... Do you mean it?
Kaze: I do. The truth is, I've fallen in love with your sweet smile and your pure soul. I put my feelings aside because, from a social standpoint, I am not worthy of you. But if being together is what would make you most happy, that's what we'll do. There's nothing I would like more than to have you ever at my side.
Elise: Oh, Kaze! I'm so happy!
Kaze: As am I. I promise to do all I can to fill your life with joy.
Elise: Hee hee, and maybe you can teach me some of your cool ninja hiding tricks!
Kaze: Don't get ahead of yourself. We're still hide-and-seek rivals, after all.
Elise: HEE HEE HEE, so true!

Elise: OH! Big Sis! Where have you been hiding? I've been looking for you forever!
Azura: Hello, Elise. What can I do for you?
Elise: Hee hee, it's playtime, silly! I'm just so happy to have a new big sister! We have to spend all our time together so I can get to know everything about you!
Azura: Ah, so that's it. Well, I'm very sorry, but I can't play with you right this moment. I have something important on my mind, so I'd like to be alone with my thoughts.
Elise: What are you talking about? You can be alone and worry about stuff later, right?
Azura: I suppose so, but I would much rather...
Elise: Yay, it's settled then! I'm so excited! Come on, let's go play!
Azura: I'm sorry, Elise, but I'm going to have to put my foot down.
Elise: Don't be so uptight, sheesh! Well, you leave me no choice but to put MY foot down... One, two, three, PUSH!
Azura: Whoa, wait! Elise! Please don't push me like that! Goodness, I'm really not sure what to do in a situation like this. Sakura was never this forceful when she wanted my attention, so I just...
Elise: What?! Did you just say Sakura? Oh, so you think your stinky sister from Hoshido is better than me. Hmph! I suppose I'd have to be perfect like her to get you to think of me as your sister!
Azura: N-no, that's not it at all! Please, I meant no such thing...
Elise: It's too late to take it back now! You're so mean to compare me to your other sister!
Azura: I-I'm so sorry, Elise. I promise it was not my intention to compare you two.
Elise: I... I just wanted to get to know my new big sister... *sniffle* Now I'm angry... *sniffle* And... I don't want to play with you anymore! Why don't you just go to a forest and... and make friends with a mean ol' bear! Waaaaah!
Azura: Elise... My, that got out of hand quickly. I really should not have mentioned Sakura to her... I must fix this somehow. I've longed to be close with Elise since she was a baby...

Azura: Elise...
Elise: Yay, it's my big sis! Oh, I mean... it's YOU. I'm not talking to you. I know you don't like me as much as your other sister anyway...
Azura: Elise, I'm really sorry about the other day. I know it sounded like I was being cruel, but I swear it was all a misunderstanding. I truly regret saying something I should have known would hurt your feelings...
Elise: Ha! Nice try, but there's nothing you could say that would make me forgive you.
Azura: I see. Well, this probably won't change your mind, but I brought you something...
Elise: For me? WOW! Oh my gosh! I LOVE the pattern on this! What is it?
Azura: This is called a kimono. It's something the locals in Hoshido wear.
Elise: That's amazing! Are you sure I can have it? ...Ah! Wait! This is a trick! You're trying to bribe me so I won't be mad. It won't work! I'm not some silly kid you can bribe with pretty things. Pretty, pretty things...
Azura: You're right, Elise. I know it won't be that easy to earn your forgiveness and trust. Still, I'd like for you to hear me out.
Elise: ...
Azura: That kimono is something special. Queen Mikoto gave it to me before she passed. After I was taken from Nohr, I heard a rumor about a newly born princess there... I told Queen Mikoto how I felt about this. She listened kindly, as she always did. When I was finished talking, she presented me with this beautiful kimono.
Elise: I see... So, um... What did you tell her? How did you feel when I was born?
Azura: I told her... that the newly born princess of Nohr was my baby sister. I said I was heartbroken because I would never have the chance to get to know her. I cried and told her how sad I was to lose my sister before ever laying eyes on her...
Elise: Big Sis...
Azura: After giving me the kimono, she dried my tears and told me to have faith. She said one day our kingdoms would know peace, and you and I would be together. This kimono is a token of her belief in that. She told me to hold on to it... and one day, when we crossed paths, to give it to you as a gift. That's why I wanted to see you. I couldn't wait a moment longer.
Elise: ...Was Queen Mikoto... a kind lady?
Azura: She was the kindest woman I've ever known. I always looked up to her.
Elise: Well... I suppose it would be rude to Queen Mikoto if I didn't accept this, right? I guess I have no choice! I don't want to offend her memory, so I'll take the gift!
Azura: Thank you, Elise. I know this would have made her as happy as it makes me.
Elise: Hee hee, happy to help! Thank you, Big Sis! I love it. And... I'm sorry for the things I said. I may have overreacted a tiny bit... I wish Queen Mikoto was here so she could see that we're finally together.
Azura: Elise...
Elise: Wow, this is pretty! It has kind of a funny shape though, doesn't it? I have no idea how to put this on... Maybe if I tug here a little... Nope...
Azura: Haha, it's easier than it looks. Come, I'll show you how it's done.
Elise: YAY! You're the best! I love you, Big Sis!

Azura: Hello, Elise. You looked so cute in your kimono the other day. All our friends agree.
Elise: ...
Azura: What's wrong, Elise? You seem distracted...
Elise: Oh, um... Sorry, Big Sis. I was thinking about something important, and... Sorry, what did you say?
Azura: I just wanted to tell you how beautiful you looked in your kimono the other day.
Elise: Oh, thank you! Hee hee!
Azura: Elise, is something bothering you? I hope you know you can tell me anything...
Elise: Well... When I wore that kimono, I kept thinking about Queen Mikoto's words... When the world is at peace, I want to wear that kimono proudly in the streets of Nohr.
Azura: That's a sweet thought, Elise. But you know what that means...
Elise: I do. A fight between warring nations won't be easy to break up... I also know some people won't understand my decision to strive for peace. But in my heart I know that bringing Nohr and Hoshido together is the right choice.
Azura: Elise...
Elise: If I can show our people all the wonderful things Hoshido's culture has to offer... Maybe they'd be more understanding, more open to change. That's my wish. Hee hee, what do you think, Azura? Think it will work?
Azura: I think that's a lovely idea. If anyone can achieve such a thing, it's you. Queen Mikoto would have loved to hear such words from Nohr's littlest Princess.
Elise: Then it's settled! When the time comes, I'm going to try my hardest!
Azura: Elise... You're so cheerful and kind. You truly inspire me.
Elise: Hee hee, don't praise me TOO much, Sis! You're making me blush! That's some kimono, eh? It made me want to change the whole world!
Azura: Your enthusiasm brings me so much joy. I'm proud of you, Elise.

Silas: Hello, Lady Elise. I'm happy to report that I've successfully fulfilled your request. I located that starving family you mentioned and delivered a month's worth of food.
Elise: Wow, what a relief! Thank you, Silas! I'm sorry I asked you for such a big favor. Really, thanks a million!
Silas: Not to worry, milady. Helping others is a passion of mine.
Elise: Hee hee, you're so great. How can I ever thank you?
Silas: You have already thanked me. Twice. That is more than sufficient, milady.
Elise: Oh, don't be a goose. Surely there must be something you'd like as a reward? Come on, don't be shy! Tell me! Tell me! TELL ME!
Silas: Ah, um, I mean...are you certain?! If so, I suppose... Well, to be honest, I do have something in mind. Maybe...you could be my little sister for a day.
Elise: Huh?!
Silas: Well, this is a little embarrassing, but...seeing you and Corrin together makes me long for a sibling of my own.
Elise: That's really all you want? A sister for a day?
Silas: It is. Doesn't it sound like fun?
Elise: It sounds...like a blast! This is gonna be great!
Silas: So you'll really do it? Wow! Th-thank you, Lady Elise!

Elise: Silas! Hi! Have you figured out what we're gonna do on Sister Day yet?
Silas: Well, I was thinking about it, and I believe I've got it figured out.
Elise: Oooh, yay! Go on, tell me all about it. Hurry! The wait is killing me!
Silas: Ha ha, well...I was thinking... we could get into an argument!
Elise: An argument? Really?! I don't understand...
Silas: That's what siblings do, right? And they say the more you fight, the closer you become!
Elise: I have never heard anyone say that, no. I'm gonna tell it to you straight, Silas. That is a really, REALLY dumb idea. Let's do something fun instead!
Silas: Oh...OK. You're probably right.
Elise: Do you have anything else in mind?
Silas: No...that's all I could come up with.
Elise: Oh...
Silas: What do you suggest, Lady Elise? Is there anything you and Corrin do that's especially sibling-like?
Elise: Oh! OH! We train together sometimes!
Silas: You train? Like, for battle?
Elise: Yeah! What do ya think?
Silas: I don't know... What if I hurt you? I could never forgive myself.
Elise: Why?
Silas: Why?! Because, um, hurting sweet little girls for fun is...you know...wrong.
Elise: Pfft. That's what I say to that. Training is a great way for siblings to bond. Trust me!
Silas: Oh dear...

Silas: Hello, Lady Elise.
Elise: Hi, Silas!
Silas: So I've been thinking about Sister Day, and I've made up my mind. If you wish to train together, then that's what we'll do.
Elise: Huh? Really?
Silas: Really. If some terrible accident happens, I'm prepared to pay the cost. People will throw stones, and I'll surely be hanged by my Nohrian friends... But if that is your wish, then so be it.
Elise: Hmm... So, yeah, about that...
Silas: Is something wrong?
Elise: Weeell, now that I think about it, maybe that's not the best idea.
Silas: Oh? What made you change your mind?
Elise: Well, I realized that all siblings bond in different ways. I've never trained with Xander once! So if you're gonna be my brother, Silas, we should think of something special. You're not mad, are you? I know you finally made up your mind and all...
Silas: No worries at all. We'll figure something out. This is harder than I thought...
Elise: Oh, I know! Why don't we ask around? Get some fresh ideas? OOH! We can even hold a tea party and all brainstorm and eat cookies! It will be so fun! People can share stories about how they bond with their siblings. We're bound to hear an idea that's perfect for us!
Silas: That's a wonderful idea, Lady Elise.
Elise: Isn't it? OK! Let's go invite everyone!
Silas: Yes, let's!

Silas: Lady Elise! I wanted to thank you for the other day. The tea party was delightful. I can't recall the last time I laughed so hard! I will always remember that day with great fondness.
Elise: I'm glad YOU had a good time. I'm a little bummed, to be honest. I was really hoping we could figure out a fun sibling thing to do together. I guess it's hopeless... *SIGH*
Silas: Actually...that's not a problem. I think I changed my mind about my reward.
Elise: Huh, really? After all that?! Well, what DO you want then?
Silas: Well, instead of a sister, I was wondering... *GULP* Well, I was hoping that... Maybe you would consent to be my wife instead.
Elise: ... ... ... Oh! I think I get it. You mean just for a day, like the sister thing. Right? That's no problem at all.
Silas: Actually...I meant forever. Though I more than understand if you wish to decline.
Elise: Silas...
Silas: I've had feelings for you for a while now. Lately, you're all I can think about. I thought just being near you would be enough, thus the sister idea. I probably should keep these emotions to myself, but I can't stand it any longer.
Elise: I had no idea...
Silas: Lady Elise, I'll only ask this once. If you say no I shall leave you alone forever. You are everything to me. Will you do me the honor of being my wife?
Elise: Oh my...what a beautiful ring. But I wonder...
Silas: May I inquire as to the cause of your hesitation? Am I not worthy of you?
Elise: No, it's not that! You're kind and faithful, and...and I have feelings for you too. But if we can't even think of sibling things to do, what will we do when we're married?
Silas: Oh, is that it? That's no concern at all! I was only lost for suggestions because I didn't want to tip my hand to you. When we're married, we can do whatever we please. Picnics, long walks, anything. My only concern in life will be to make sure you are as happy as possible.
Elise: Oh, Silas... Do you mean it?
Silas: With all my heart, milady. I know a lowly knight is unworthy of a fair princess, but please consider.
Elise: Don't speak that way about my future husband!
Silas: A-are you saying what I think you're saying?!

Elise: Oh, no! Don't worry, Arthur. It's nothing like that. I just had a question I wanted to ask you.
Arthur: Ah. Well, I am a man of little learning, but if I can help, please, ask away.
Elise: You're a man of justice, right, Arthur? So I was wondering... Is there anything you wouldn't do to help someone in trouble?
Arthur: No! I would stop at nothing to save even a single person from harm, milady. If a milk lady lost a child, I'd scour the entire globe for that li'l babe! If an old man could no longer walk, I myself would serve as his legs as long as need be!
Elise: Wow! So cool...
Arthur: If someone sobbed a single sob, I would tickle them until they smiled! If I saw a fight, I would break it up, but not before I brought their hands together. This time in the loving clasp of friendship, rather than a deadly grapple of war! Er...I suppose I needn't go on. You get the idea. I am who I've always been: Destroyer of Evil, Champion of the Weak! I am Arthur! The Hero of Justice!

In fact, I would sit and roll around in one for you! Nay, I'd throw myself off a cliff, wailing and bare as a darling babe, into one for you! My oiled skin glistening in the aestival air as I plunged into the fiery pit below—
Elise: Ah! That won't be necessary! I promise! That will never, ever be necessary. But...what I was thinking of when I said that...it might be hard, even for you.
Arthur: I suspected as much; you've been acting very strangely these days. But I have come prepared. Please, anything you need, I shall perform.
Elise: Well...OK. You asked for it. What I wanted to ask you... It's about Lord Xander.
Arthur: About Lord Xander?
Elise: Yes. I was hoping you could make Xander...
Arthur: Y...yes?
Elise: I was wondering if you could make him smile!
Arthur: Oh, thank the gods. I thought you were going to say "a corpse!" Ha ha! What a hilarious misunderstanding!
Elise: Huh?
Arthur: Er, n-nothing, my lady. It's not so funny now that I think about it...

Elise: Wha— He's going NOW?!
Arthur: Lady Elise! I have returned.
Elise: Arthur! That was...so...quick. How did it go?
Arthur: Splendidly! While I was with Lord Xander, he didn't stop laughing for a second!
Elise: Really?! How did you do it?
Arthur: Well, I found Lord Xander at the top of a hill, so I charged up it as fast as I could! But, wouldn't you know it, I tripped! Right as I reached the crest. Tumbled the whole way down again. Ha-ha! It was quite the sight, I assure you. I don't think I've sever seen the prince laugh so hard in his life!
Elise: Oh. That wasn't quite the kind of smile I was hoping for...
Arthur: I...I suspected as much. But one hopes.
Elise: Oh well. Maybe it's impossible. There are things even a miracle couldn't fix... But thanks anyways, Arthur.

Arthur: Aye, I did! And I told him, straight out, that it's ill for him to always look so grim. Dourness little profits a king, I said! He must show his people he is human! For the future of Nohr, I suggested he might do well to smile now and then.
Elise: Wow! That's great, Arthur! And he listened? What'd he say?
Arthur: He laughed.
Elise: He what?
Arthur: Well, it was more of a scoff, really.
Elise: ...
Arthur: I guess you could say, if you were so inclined...that he was laughing... *ahem* ...At me.
Elise: ...
Arthur: I-I'd had a sudden urge to...empty my bladder, you see, while we were talking... So I was holding myself and...dancing... a little bit as I spoke. The pain was almost unendurable. But not more so than the thought of giving up. I would never willingly disappoint you, my lady.
Elise: Oh, Arthur. I hope you get well soon. *sigh* I figured something would go wrong. Thanks, though. You did your best. That's all I can ask...
Arthur: Milady—
Elise: It's just...before...Xander used to be so much happier. He enjoyed playing and joking around with me, but since the war began... He still smiles, of course, but it's never like before. That's why I asked for your help... I just want him to be like he was. Happy. I don't want him to worry so much...
Arthur: Lady Elise... ... I understand. Let me handle this.
Elise: No, it's OK. What I want is impossible. Xander is going to be king soon. I'm sure he has so many things to worry about. Things I probably couldn't even imagine.
Arthur: With all due respect, I disagree. It is NOT impossible. I am Arthur, the Hero of Justice! And, I might add, your loyal retainer. I exist to serve you and the throne of Nohr, and that I shall do if it kills me! Perhaps it will take some time, but I will do this thing for you someday. I promise.

Arthur: What? Don't say such things! You could never make Lord Xander sad!
Elise: Not like that, Arthur. I don't mean I'm the reason he never smiles. I just mean that I might have been hoping for something silly. I always thought of him as my own personal hero. You know, like how some girls think of their dads. Except I never felt that way about ours since he's...well, our father. When things got rough, though, I could always rely on Xander. And, it's true, he always smiled then, and he used to laugh so much. But sometimes people have to change to become who they're destined to be. He's had to shoulder so much...there's no way he could stay the boy he was. And if he did, he wouldn't be the man we needed to lead us.
Arthur: Lady Elise...
Elise: I think I was just feeling nostalgic. I was only sad because I couldn't play with him like I used to anymore. It's my problem. Not his. He's not just MY hero now. He's everyone's.
Arthur: A hero, eh? So what would your ideal personal hero look like?
Elise: Huh?
Arthur: When you imagine the perfect hero, what is he like?
Elise: The perfect hero? Huh. That's hard... Well, I guess they'd be a lot like you, Arthur.
Arthur: Wha?
Elise: You're a kind and loyal person. AND you're a Hero of Justice, right? Plus I bet you'd make a great father! I can see it now! With kids crawling up and down ya, and your wife hugging your side. It's perfect! Whoever you marry, Arthur...she'll be a very lucky woman. I'm sure of it.
Arthur: Oh, Lady Elise...
Elise: Wh-what's wrong?
Arthur: Nothing. I'm just so happy you said that. Because I came here to tell you something. Something very related to what you just said.
Elise: Huh?
Arthur: My lady, you are the most easygoing and carefree woman I have ever met. Just seeing you unburdens my heart of all its troubles. You are truly one of a kind. And it is this unique quality of yours that compels me to protect you. Not duty or justice, but only that I could not bear to live in a world without you. So, please, if you think I am worthy...will you accept this ring?
Elise: WH-WHAT?
Arthur: Will you marry me, Lady Elise?
Elise: I-I don't know what to say.
Arthur: ...I understand. It makes sense that you would be hesitant to accept. Even if you do love me, I am not your peer. A princess should marry a prince, no? Otherwise...the nobility will get to talking. It could cause a scandal. So, please, think on it, and take your time. Only do this if it is truly what you want.
Elise: Oh, Arthur. I love you. But it's not the nobles I'm worried about. It's Xander... I feel like he's not going to be too happy about this.
Arthur: You need not worry, milady. I will tell Lord Xander the news myself. And I will work hard every day until he smiles to think of our marriage. A real smile this time! Not his normal laughing-at-Arthur smile!
Elise: Well when you put it like that, I guess I have to say yes! Teehee. So, here goes. Arthur... I do!

Effie: Yes. It's not often that the lives of commoners and princesses overlap.
Elise: I was so shocked when I saw you at the castle in full uniform! To think you were the same girl I'd met in town... I knew then and there that we'd be friends forever!
Effie: I kept remembering your face on the day we met. To have snuck out of the castle and gone all that way on your own... I knew I had to spend my life protecting that brave, sweet girl. I knew to do that I'd have to join the castle guard. So I trained as hard as I could. I lifted boulders beneath waterfalls, and I swam upstream through the rapids. I even went hunting with nothing but my bare hands.
Elise: Really?! Yikes, I didn't know that part...
Effie: But it was because of those hardships that I earned the honor of being your retainer. I feel only gratitude for the pain I suffered. It made me strong.
Elise: It really did! You're the strongest person I've ever known, Effie! Thank you so much. For everything!
Effie: Heehee. No need to thank me.

Elise: I mean, I have no idea what you're saying most of the time when you talk like that. But if you throw in some normal talk every once in a while, I can play along too!
Odin: Please, bite your tongue, milady. I cannot simply change my essence. I would lose my grasp over the darkness! I...simply wouldn't be myself any longer.
Elise: Well, that's fine too. Just talk to me a bunch, and eventually I'll understand!
Odin: Talk to you...a bunch?
Elise: Yeah! You and I should talk all the time starting RIGHT NOW! Soon I'll know all about the demons of the labyrinth and their veil of stuff and stuff. This is going to be great!

Elise: Hi, Odin! Er, I mean...I now approach the one called Odin Dark, MWAHAHA!
Odin: Fair princess of twilight, I hear your cry. You wish to speak with Odin Dark? So be it, but I must warn you to beware the shadowy depths of innocent eyes. For the night inevitably destroys the day, like pure, ivory sand awash in an onyx tide.
Elise: Yeah. YEAH. I will. Like a diamond soul wandering in the middle of a desert. It wanders up the sacred summit until the spears of agony pierce its heart! Right?
Odin: You are exactly right. But...are you sure you're OK, Lady Elise?
Elise: Huh? What do you mean? Am I doing it wrong?
Odin: No, it's just...if you speak with the tongue of darkness, won't you be shunned?
Elise: Oh, don't worry about it. I only speak with the dark tongue or whatever around you! Besides, even if I said these things to other people, I think they'd just be confused.
Odin: I suppose that's true.
Elise: But who cares about what other people think. Let's keep Odin-talking! I just love all the wonderful stories you tell. They're so whimsical and cool!
Odin: Aren't they, though?! Aren't they so heroic and inspiring? Elise, you're just...you're great! This is why you're the beloved princess of Nohr.
Elise: Teehee, thanks! Enough of that, though. Weren't you going to tell me about your 13th Demon Blade?
Odin: Ah yes, good ol' Righteous Fury. One of my favorites, though it's a truly cursed blade. They say the wielder is possessed by a dark magic whenever the bloodred moon rises...
Elise: NO, really?! Tell me more!
S Support
Elise: Yay, it's Odin! Let's talk about cool things and dark stuff and the like!
Odin: About that... Lady Elise, I must speak with you about a difficult matter. It seems there are rumors going around about us. Very troubling rumors.
Elise: Oh? What kind of rumors?
Odin: There are those who believe I am exposing you to some kind of evil sorcery.
Elise: WHAT?! That's just silly! We're just having fun chatting. There's nothing evil about it! If people are so worried about what you're saying, they should join our conversations!
Odin: True, but even if they did, I doubt they would understand what was being said.
Elise: How can we keep spending time together without people getting the wrong idea?
Odin: We could always get married, haha. Then I bet people would stop fussing over us.
Elise: Get...married?
Odin: Oh, I just meant if we were married, they would expect us to always be together. *ahem* But anyway, let me tell you a little bit about this new Demon Sword I found...
Elise: Hey, Odin...you know, marriage might not be such a bad idea. It might just work.
Odin: Wh-wh-what did you just say?!
Elise: I said, getting married isn't such a bad idea!
Odin: Whoa, wait. Wait! Just WAIT one minute! I was joking when I said that! You do understand what marriage is, don't you, Lady Elise?
Elise: DUH. Did you really just ask me that? Don't you dare treat me like a child!
Odin: I-I'm very sorry. I just meant...marrying me just so we can keep chatting...
Elise: But...that's not the only reason. Since we've been spending time together, I've been thinking about all kinds of things. Things I've never thought about before! Like...how much I enjoy being with you. It's not because I like your stories or that we get along so well, either. It's because... It's because I have feelings for you! Strong ones! Love-type ones!
Odin: Whaaaa?! D-do you really mean that?!
Elise: ...I do. Is that, um, OK?
Odin: W-well, of course! I mean, I think you're extremely beautiful and special. And truth be told, I have the same kind of feelings for you too. It's just...
Elise: Just what?
Odin: Everyone will oppose. EVERYONE. They all know...that I'm not worthy of you.
Elise: *pffft* Is that all? Who cares? All that matters is how we feel about each other!
Odin: Lady Elise, are you sure about that? If you're really prepared for the backlash, I have something I'd like to say to you...
Elise: I'm prepared for anything, so long as I have you. Go ahead and say it.
Odin: Lady Elise...all I want in this world is to stay by your side. Please marry me. Tomorrow we'll go to pick out a pretty ring for that pretty little hand of yours.
Elise: Oh, Odin! Of course I'll marry you! I'm so happy...
Odin: I had no idea things would turn out this way between us. I'm elated. Together we shall find a way to forever banish the dark entities of the night! And I promise somehow I'll find a way to show everyone I am worthy of you.
Elise: Yaaay! Now we can talk about the darkness all we want, heehee!

Niles: Hm? Where do you think you're going?
Elise: What do you mean?
Niles: The war council is assembling in a few minutes. Aren't you to be there?
Elise: Yeah, but I'm not going.
Niles: Oh? Why is that?
Elise: 'Cause everyone just treats me like a kid. Even if I go, they won't listen to me.
Niles: The best way to get treated like an adult may be to think of yourself as one. Or perhaps to simply act like one by actually attending your meetings?
Elise: But everything they talk about always goes right over my head. I can never follow what they're saying.
Niles: That's no excuse. You could try studying more between these meetings. Lord Leo attended such meetings when he was much younger than you are now.
Elise: He did?
Niles: Sure, probably.
Elise: Huh?
Niles: I said "sure, milady."
Elise: OK. Well, I guess you're right. I should probably get going, then...
Niles: I'm happy you've come to see the light, milady. Attending these meetings can only help both you and Nohr. If nothing else, you will learn more simply by being present.
Elise: OK. I'll do my best!
B Support
Elise: *bawling*
Niles: What's the matter, my lady?
Elise: I w-went to the war meeting like you said, but they told me I didn't need to be there! They said i-i-it was too complicated for me! J-j-jerks!
Niles: They what?
Elise: Yeah! Everyone else was there, and I'm th-the only one they said should leave! It's so dumb! Dumb dumb dumb! They're all just a bunch of dumbheads! Why won't they take me seriously?! I even showed up and everything! I'm an adult, right? They should treat me like ooonnee! *sob*
Niles: My apologies. It seems my advice has caused you unnecessary pain.
Elise: No, you were right. I need to study more. I'm no better than a child. My siblings are so mature... Why can't I be like them?
Niles: If I might offer some additional advice, milady?
Elise: OK...I guess. What is it?
Niles: You might take this the wrong way, but I think it's important you hear it. I think the problem lies in your attitude.
Elise: My attitude?
Niles: You want others to see you both as an adult and as a little sister. So while you want them to take you seriously, you pout when they don't. Years may pass, milady, but this alone won't make you mature or responsible. That can only be earned by learning to master yourself and your reactions.
Elise: ...You're right. Thank you, Niles... *sniff* *sniffle* No. No! I can't cry! I'm not a baby!
Niles: No. You may cry as much as you like. You have just heard a hard truth. But when your crying is through, pick yourself up and try again. Study up. I know you can do it.
Elise: Th-th-thank you, Niles! I'll do my best! *sob*

Elise: Niles!
Niles: Lady Elise? You seem more energetic of late.

Elise: Well I did! And everyone wants me to attend the war council meetings again!
Niles: Huh. Well, good on you, then. So, tell me. What happened?
Elise: I told them how I think we should approach our next battle. And they listened! They even praised my idea! It's all thanks to you, Niles!
Niles: I'm proud of you, Elise. That's wonderful. Though...perhaps also something of a shame.
Elise: Huh? Did you say something?
Niles: Oh, no. Nothing, my dear princess.
Elise: OK. Well, either way, I want you to know that I'm still gonna be relying on you! You're harsh, but you don't mince words. I need someone like that in my life. It's only because of your advice that I even made it this far, after all.
Niles: Then I will do my best to serve you, my lady...much as it may hurt sometimes.
Elise: Thanks! I'm counting on you!

Niles: You called for me?
Elise: Thanks for coming, Niles! I had something to tell you.
Niles: I see.
Elise: When the time is right, I think I should marry someone like you.
Niles: Oh? Any reason?
Elise: Yeah. I need a husband who won't mince words. Someone who knows how things really are. Who doesn't sugarcoat anything.
Niles: You seem to have a very high opinion of me.
Elise: I do! I love you, Niles! I love you a whole bunch! You've made me think and helped me to grow in ways I didn't think I could. And that's not all I like about ya.
Niles: Then, milady, there is only one thing left to do. We must marry each other.
Elise: Perfect! So then you'll take this?
Niles: A ring? My, you certainly don't waste any time, do you?
Elise: Nope! Not when it comes to you, my love!
Niles: Well, I suppose I must accept.
Elise: Because you love me too?
Niles: I...do. I never expected it. But I have grown to love you. You have an innocence about you that I have rarely seen in my life. I lost hope, once, because I bore witness to the worst evils the world has to offer. But you have rekindled that hope in my heart. I could not live without you.
Elise: O-oh wow. Really?
Niles: Really. And I vow I will do everything in my power to help you in all your endeavors. Though I suppose we'll start with making you a responsible, regal princess, eh?

Camilla: Hm? Where's this coming from?
Elise: I dunno. I just wanna be more like you!
Camilla: Like me?
Elise: Yeah! I wanna be more mature and ladylike and stuff, just like you!
Camilla: Aww. I wouldn't worry about it too much. You're perfect just the way you are.
Elise: I don't wanna be perfect! I wanna be a mature woman!
Camilla: Haha, then you'll have to learn the first lesson mature people all know. We must gratefully accept what the world decides to give us and make the most of it. Fussing over what things you can't change won't help anything.

Elise: An open mind?
Camilla: Yes. An open mind and a tolerant heart that's full of kindness. A mature lady must also learn to be merciful and forgiving.
Elise: I see. But, um, Camilla... You're not like that at all to our enemies…
Camilla: Oh, gods no! You never need to show such decency to them.
Elise: R-really? Are you sure?
Camilla: Of course! In any case, I think you already have most of those qualities. You've always been such a sweet and kindhearted girl.

Camilla: Eat properly, exercise, and get plenty of sleep!
Elise: That's... it?
Camilla: I didn't do anything special, so if there's any other way, I couldn't tell you.

Camilla: Oh, Elise. You don't need to be like me!
Elise: But you're so strong and grown up and beautiful! You're the whole package! I want to be more like a real lady. More like you. Even if only a little. Look! I even dyed some of my hair to be the same color as yours! Heehee.
Camilla: Heehee. So that's why it's that color. I knew something was different. But I look up to you too, you know.
Elise: What?! You do?
Camilla: Yes. If it weren't for you, I might have lost hope a long time ago. Nohr is a dark place, and your innocence is one of the few lights in it. Whenever I see you, I remember why we fight. To protect that light.
Elise: Really?
Camilla: Yes. And I'm not the only one. We all feel that way about you, Elise. You inspire all of us to fight harder, and to hold fast to our hope. And one day, if we're lucky, the sun will show itself to us again.
Elise: You're talking about me? Are you sure?
Camilla: Yes. So have a bit more confidence. You are exactly who you need to be. If you must change, let it happen naturally. But never force it. You're too precious for us to lose…
Elise: Camilla... Thank you! For you, I promise I won't change too much.

Laslow: GAAAAH! L-Lady Elise?!
Elise: What's with all this "one-two-fancyword" stuff? Are you trying to come up with a new game too?
Laslow: A new game? No, I'm not playing around.
Elise: Huh? Then why are you spinning around out here all by yourself?
Laslow: I was practicing my dancing. It's... something I'd rather keep a secret. Would you do that for me?
Elise: Yeah, sure! Dancing, you say... Oh! That's it! That's what it's missing!
Laslow: Lady Elise?
Elise: Thanks, Laslow! You're a lifesaver!
Laslow: I'm...not exactly sure what I did, but you're welcome all the same. Say, perhaps our meeting here today was destiny... How about, to celebrate, the two of us go get a cup of tea and—
Elise: Sorry, Laslow, I'm too busy. Bye!
(Elise leaves)
Laslow: Huh. I wonder what that was all about...
B Support
Elise: Heya, Laslow! Thanks for coming!
Laslow: Of course. What do you require of me, milady?
Elise: So, I've been trying to come up with a new game everyone can play together. But it was missing something... Then I saw you dancing, and it hit me! What my game needed was some of that shimmy-shake stuff to spice it up! You see where I'm going with this, right?
Laslow: Not really, no.
Elise: Do I have to spell it out for you? I want to add your dance moves to my game! See, I'm coming up with a superspecial version of tag. But instead of running, you have to dance while you chase people! So! I need you to teach me how to dance.
Laslow: ...I see.
Elise: So what are you waiting for? Go on and get to teaching, Teach!
Laslow: I'm afraid my style of dancing really isn't worth teaching you, milady. I'm mostly self-taught. My style lacks the formality suited to one of your station.
Elise: I don't mind! In fact, that's exactly the sort of thing I want! I want it to be fun, not all stuffy and courtly.
Laslow: Oh? Then I would be honored to show you my moves. Let's begin with some footwork.
(Laslow leaves)
(Elise leaves)
Laslow: So that about covers the basic steps. Give it a try.
Elise: Um...like this?
Laslow: Hmm. Not quite. More like this.
Elise: Ohhhhh... So like this?
Laslow: No, still not quite...
Elise: Aw. I give up! I was never any good at dancing anyway.
Laslow: Huh?
Elise: Besides, I don't need to actually dance myself. I can just be the referee. You can be in charge of all the dancing! You don't mind teaching everyone, right?
Laslow: What?! You want me to be a part of the game now?
Elise: Yep!
Laslow: I don't know... I think I'd be too embarrassed...
Elise: Aw, don't say that. You've got to do it! For everyone! Think of it as a privilege!

Elise: Woohoo! Our test run went perfectly. "Love Tag" is ready for showtime!
Laslow: "Love Tag"?! Pardon me, Lady Elise, but exactly what kind of game is this? I thought it was just like normal tag, but with dancing...
Elise: Oh, silly you! You still have so much to learn. Dancing and chasing is just for kids! My game needed some more spice. The point of the game isn't really just to tag someone. It's to show off your skills!
Laslow: But my dances are for art! They're not meant to be...enticing. Not like that!
Elise: Oh? This coming from the guy who spends half his waking hours chasing girls? What's wrong with encouraging a little romance around here? This little game of mine will have couples popping up all over the army! It'll make everyone happier! Plus, we'll all fight harder if it's for someone we love!
Laslow: I guess that's a good point. Sort of.
Elise: It really is!
Laslow: *sigh* You certainly have some odd ideas. Though I guess war is as good a time as any to find love. Isn't that right, milady?
Elise: Yup! I'm just glad I finally figured out how to make the game work. I had a lot of trouble thinking of something romantic. I don't know many boys... But you hang out with girls all the time! And you dance! So that must be the key. Anyway, c'mon! We should go tell everyone about our new game!
Laslow: Er, just a moment. This game is supposed to help people attract partners, correct? If so, I should warn you... I'm not very successful on that front.
Elise: What?!
Laslow: In fact, if anything, most women seem to dislike me...
Elise: Haha! You kidder! I see you talking with beautiful women all the time.
Laslow: Well, yes, but that's because I go up to them. They don't usually respond well...
Elise: What?! But our game—
Laslow: Yes. There's a teensy-weensy chance everyone will be repulsed by each other.
Elise: Awww... And here I thought my idea was finally perfect.
Laslow: Apologies, milady. I would have said something sooner had I known. Though I must admit, I'm relieved I don't need to teach everyone to dance now.
Elise: What? You're not getting off that easy! We're sticking to the plan!
Laslow: We are? But why?
Elise: Well, we've come this far! No sense in giving up without trying, right? Besides, I don't think it's your dance moves that the girls hate. It's probably just your personality!
Laslow: ...

Elise: Why? You were the best dancer-tagger out there.
Laslow: Well, everyone there already seemed to have eyes for someone else! I was one of the only ones dancing who left without a date.
Elise: Yeah, true. I see how that would be embarrassing. But don't feel bad! I think it's just because you were helping me run the game. I mean, I was the referee, so I didn't get a date either. Though I guess I wasn't dancing like you...
Laslow: Would you play Love Tag with me if you knew how to dance?
Elise: Of course!
Laslow: Truly? Cross your heart?
Elise: Of course! Why are you making it sound like such a big— Wait. Laslow...you don't mean...
Laslow: I do. I would be very much honored if you would accompany me on a date, milady. I am...quite fond of you.
Elise: Since when? I had no idea! What do you like about me anyway?! I'm not all that mature...and I don't have a figure like Camilla's...
Laslow: Please, you needn't compare yourself to your sister. You're your own woman. And you have a kind, generous heart. You work so hard just to make others happy. Just think of all the effort you put into making that game for everyone!
Elise: You really think all those nice things about me? That's the sweetest thing anyone's ever said to me!
Laslow: I'm glad to hear it. But I'm not saying it just to flatter you. It's true.
Elise: I guess it's my turn, huh? I like you too, Laslow. In fact, every time I see you dance, I can't help but think you're amazing. You're so talented! And of all the people playing Love Tag, you were the best.
Laslow: Milady...
Elise: So I guess this means we both like each other! Whoa!
Laslow: I suppose it does. It seems Love Tag was a resounding success.
Elise: Totally! But don't think this means you don't have to teach me how to dance! I promise not to give up this time!
Laslow: Whatever you want, my love.

Elise: Xander once told me that Father used to be really different, but he didn't say more. So I was hoping you could tell me what kind of person Father was back then.
Leo: Hmm. Well, before Queen Arete passed away, I'd say he was a gentle father.
Elise: Gentle?! No way! I can't even imagine him like that.
Leo: I know. If I were you, I wouldn't believe it either. But I used to be fond of Father. He even gave me piggyback rides whenever I asked!
Elise: What?! I'm so jealous! He never treated me like that! What else?!
Leo: He was a courageous person. He'd even ride out to battle on the front lines. Obviously, I never saw him do so myself, but that's what I've been told. But I did see him spar. He was so strong... I couldn't help but believe the stories.
Elise: Wow, really? I wanna meet back-then-Father! He sounds amazing!
Leo: He was. To tell you the truth, I wish I could see him again as well. Let's see... What else did they say about him? Ah, yes. When he was young, they say he never ran out of love stories to tell. Ah, yes. All the girls in the kingdom wanted to be at his side. And they weren't just interested in the throne, either. He was quite the charmer.
Elise: Heehee! OUR Father? A ladies' man?! It's not possible!
Leo: I know it's hard to believe now, but he was known as an extremely charismatic leader. Unfortunately, this charisma inspired much chaos among his suitors. There were so many vying for his favor that they frequently turned to violence. Some even turned on members of their own family.
Elise: What?! How could someone do that to their own family?
Leo: I suppose they lost all sense of self-control in their effort to rise in position. I agree, it certainly does not speak well of their character.
Elise: I see…
Leo: Elise? Are you OK?
Elise: Huh? Oh, it's nothing! It's almost time to eat. We should hurry before all the best food is gone! Thanks for telling me about Father, Leo.
Leo: No problem at all.

Elise: Hey, Leo.
Leo: Hello, Elise. Do you have more questions for me?
Elise: Yeah…
Leo: What's wrong?
Elise: Well, I was just wondering... Do you think that we'll always get along? Not just you and me, but Xander and Camilla and Corrin too!
Leo: Hm? Where's this coming from?
Elise: I was just thinking about your about your story the other day. You said Father's suitors fought with their own family members... Couldn't the same thing happen to us? We have different mothers, after all…
Leo: That we do. And yes, our mothers were not exactly... well, they weren't the friendliest. Before you were born, the situation was awful, even within the royal family. My own mother used me as a tool to win favor in the court.
Elise: Leo…
Leo: It's fine. I never loved her. In all fairness, she never loved me either. I was merely an instrument to her- a lever to pull to adjust the scales of power.
Elise: I see... I... I think I know how you feel. All my mother cared about was Father. Even when she was dying, she only called out for Father. Not me.
Leo: Elise…
Elise: I'm just so worried, Leo. I love you all so much! But how can I make sure we don't ever turn on each other? What if we can't be close like this in the future? That would be awful!
Leo: Calm yourself, Elise. You're getting carried away again. We'll never be like that. I promise. Whatever our blood ties may be, in our hearts we are truly a family. Nothing could ever change that.
Elise: Really? You think so?
Leo: I do.
Elise: Yay! I think so too!
Leo: You do? Then why were you worrying yourself about it?
Elise: Well, I had to make sure! But if YOU agree, then it must be true!
Leo: You really put a lot of faith in me, don't you?
Elise: Well, duh! You're super smart! An I know you'd never lie to me 'cause I love you!
Leo: Is that the reason you trust in me? I'm afraid that's a little naive…
Elise: Well, I'd rather be naive than not trust my own brother! If I didn't have my siblings... I'm not sure if life would even be worth living!
Leo: Elise, please... Don't say such things. In any case, so long as at least one of us never stops trusting, we'll be fine.
Elise: We will?
Leo: Yes. If any of us siblings began to feel lost, they could always be reminded. Nothing is more important than our family. So long as we hold to this truth in our hearts, our bonds will never break.
Elise: Wow. That's just what I wanted to hear! Ya know, you're more optimistic than you let on, heehee.
Leo: ...Don't push your luck, Elise. Also, do me a favor and don't tell Xander we had this conversation. He would probably get all embarrassed and huffy.
Elise: You mean YOU would get embarrassed and huffy! But sure thing. It's our little secret! Thanks for talking with me, Leo!
Leo: Of course. I'm always here for you, Elise.

Xander: Hello, Elise. What is that you're reading?
Elise: Oh, this? It's a book about peace.
Xander: Peace? Go on.
Elise: It gives advice for how to make the world a more peaceful place!
Xander: Oh? An ambitious endeavor, indeed. What sort of things does it suggest?
Elise: It says it's important to never fight when it's possible to avoid it. And to always have compassion for others, even for your enemies. AND to hold hands often! For bonding and stuff!
Xander: Hold hands? Are you sure you read that correctly?
Elise: Hey, don't make fun of it!
Xander: I'm not, I assure you. It just sounds... strange.
Elise: I know, I know, it's not like your fancy military or history books or anything. But I agree with what it says.
Xander: I see. Well, they are points worth keeping in mind, at least. Though I doubt we can use compassion to combat the recent spate of pirate attacks.
Elise: I guess that's true... But I still think kindness and compassion are super important for achieving peace!
Xander: Of course. We need more of both in the world.
B Support
Elise: Xander... you called for me?
Xander: Yes. I'm sure I don't have to tell you why.
Elise: …
Xander: Not long ago, we received reports that pirates attacked a city on the coast. The town guards managed to fight them off, by some miracle. The pirates they managed to capture were jailed. Justice had been done. But I'm told they received a visitor no less esteemed than the young princess herself.
Elise: Y-yes. I was there.
Xander: What were you thinking?! If you hadn't decided to heal the lot of them, they'd never have escaped!
Elise: …
Xander: Well? What do you have to say for yourself?
Elise: I...I'm sorry I was bad. Please don't be mad at me, Xander.
Xander: Was this because of that damned book?
Elise: Huh?
Xander: The one you told me about. Preaching compassion and kindness for all.
Elise: …
Xander: Elise. I will not forbid you from reading such things. But you must face reality. Force must be met with force. That is the immutable law of the world. In healing indiscriminately, you've done a terrible injustice to those townspeople. Think of those whose loved ones were murdered by those dastards. I expect you to be more mindful of the consequences of your actions. Now, I am going to visit the town. Perhaps I can give them some consolation.
Elise: Yes, Brother. I'm sorry...
A Support
Xander: Elise. There is something I wish to discuss with you. It regards the escape pirates you healed. Do you recall? It seems that since they escaped... the town has not been attacked.
Elise: Huh?
Xander: Prior to the healing incident, that particular town suffered from regular raids. Being a moderately wealthy port town, it was a prime target for plunder.
Elise: But then... why have the attacks stopped?
Xander: I wondered the very same thing. That's why I sent some scouts to the pirates' hideout. They reported back that the number of pirates there has dropped dramatically. It seems a great many of them had a sudden change of heart and left. This could very well be a result of the kindness you showed them.
Elise: …
Xander: "Force must be met with force." Perhaps that is not so immutable a law after all.
Elise: Brother…
Xander: Elise, I have a favor to ask of you. Would you lend me that book you were reading?
Elise: Really? You want to read it?
Xander: I do. It appears that it may contain some valuable insight after all.
Elise: ...Does this mean you'll show kindness to all of our enemies from now on?
Xander: Let's not get carried away, Elise.
Elise: Hmph! Then I'm not gonna lend you my book.
Xander: Elise, please. Don't behave like that.
Elise: …
Xander: *sigh* Very well. If it brings you solace, I promise to try.
Elise: You mean it? YAY! Here, it's all yours. There are lots more where that came from too! Fighting Wars on Dance Floors is great! Oh! So is World Peace through Song. Or, actually, I've got a whole stack in my room, if you wanna look and pick a few!
Xander: Ah. Thank you, Elise. I shall peruse them at once. For the sake of Nohr.
Elise: YAY! You're the best person in the whole world, Xander!

Ryoma: It's strange...how at peace I feel right now, though we are in the middle of a war.
Elise: And you're even making daisy crowns with a princess from an enemy kingdom!
Ryoma: Precisely. It seems to me a miracle. To think, if this war had never happened, we might never have become friends.
Elise: It's strange, isn't it? We might still be fighting each other. Maybe killing each other.
Ryoma: It's changed the way I think about things. Hoshidans...Nohrians... Perhaps we're not so different after all. Perhaps lasting peace truly is attainable.

Sakura: Yes. It's a stringed instrument too, but it's not as small as the violin. And you can't play it while moving around. You must be sitting.
Elise: Oh, wow! I'd love to hear you play one sometime! Will you play for me?
Sakura: I would be delighted to, but I don't have one with me, so we'd have to find one.
Elise: That's OK! Detective Princess Elise is on the case!
Sakura: Teehee. She's so enthusiastic. I think we'll be g-good friends one day.

Elise: Sakura? Sakura! SA! KU! RA!
Sakura: Elise? Is s-something wrong?! Why are you so out of breath?
Elise: I found someone who has a koto!
Sakura: Huh? What do you mean?
Elise: When we talked the other day, you said you'd play the koto for me, right? So I went into town and asked everyone there if they knew someone who had one!
Sakura: Oh! You asked all those townspeople? I thought you were just going to check here in camp…
Elise: I even asked them to bring it back here so you could play for me! Let's go!
Sakura: Wah! Elise! P-please don't pull my arm so hard!
Elise: Whoa! You're amazing, Sakura!! And the koto is so pretty! I didn't know a stringed instrument could sound like that! I wish I had half your talent!
Sakura: You're much too kind. There's no need for such f-flattery, you know.
Elise: It's not flattery! I really mean it! Oh! I just had a great idea! We should play together sometime! You on the koto, and me on the violin!
Sakura: Together? You mean as a duet?
Elise: Yeah! Doesn't that sound like fun?
Sakura: It does, but Nohrian and Hoshidan music are so different... Do you really think we can find a song that will match both our instruments?
Elise: Hm, you're right. I didn't consider that. But there's got to be at least one song out there that will! We'll find it. I just know it.
Sakura: Heehee. Yes, perhaps. Come, let's get our sheet music and see what we have.
Elise: YAY! We'll find the perfect song in no time!
A Support
Elise: Yahoo! We did it! We actually played a song together!
Sakura: It was exhilarating! I've never performed a duet with a N-Nohrian musician before.
Elise: So what did you think? I don't think it was half-bad considering it was our first time!
Sakura: I agree. There are parts we could surely improve upon, but overall? A success!
Elise: Yup! And the contrast between the two instruments was so neat! I bet no one's ever played music quite like that before! We're geniuses!
Sakura: Haha. Perhaps we could try to find some other songs as well. It would be lovely if we could keep p-playing together.
Elise: Agreed!
Sakura: I just hope we can get in the time to practice with the war going on…
Elise: True. Well, maybe someday, when we finally have peace, we can still do this together. Then we could gather people from both kingdoms for a huge concert!
Sakura: I think that's a w-wonderful idea. Each song could be performed using instruments from each country. It would inspire our people to truly come together as one.
Elise: I can see it now! I bet people will remember it for generations!
Sakura: One can only hope. But we have a long road ahead of us before that day.
Elise: That's OK. I don't mind so long as we walk that road together.
Sakura: We will! From now on, we'll always be friends!

Kana: Look! I picked some pretty flowers for you! They're yellow like the sun!
Elise: Wow wow! They're beautiful!
Kana: Do you really like them?
Elise: Of course I do! I love love love your flowers! But you've sure been bringing me a lot of flowers lately, Kana. What's got into you?
Kana: I just remember that when I was real little, we'd go looking at flowers together. You always smiled so much. And I love your smile, Mama! So I decided to start bringing you lots and lots of flowers to help you smile!
Elise: Oh gosh! My little cutie! How sweet! But I do have a teensy-weensy itty-bitty tiny-winy favor to ask of you.
Kana: Anything, Mama. What do you need?
Elise: Remember how I told you that flowers are living things, just like us? This means that when you pick them, you're actually hurting them.
Kana: Oh no! I've been hurting them?! It was an accident! I'm sorry, flowers!
Elise: It's OK, Kana. I'm sure the flowers will forgive you, just so long as you're sorry. You just need to promise not to pick any more flowers, OK?
Kana: OK! B-but...if I do that, then how can I show you the pretty flowers I find?

Kana: This is amazing! Like, really, really amazing! I hadn't realized how many flowers I'd brought you, either. Look, there are the yellow daisies I gave you the other day! Mama, thank you for taking such good care of the flowers I gave you. It makes me so happy!
Elise: And thank YOU for all the love and flowers you've given me. I'll cherish them for a long time to come.

Dwyer: You mean it? I'm so glad you like the brew.
Elise: I really do! Honestly, I think it's even better than the kind your father makes.
Dwyer: That's high praise! I should probably keep that to myself. It might make Father angry.
Elise: Really? I don't think he'd get mad. But... I bet he'd get really crazy jealous.
Dwyer: That sounds much worse.
Elise: Hahahaha! True! I bet if he heard us talking, he would make me sample cup after cup of his brew. At least until I said I liked his coffee much better than yours.

Dwyer: Oh. Sorry.
Elise: Just spit it out! Maybe I can even give you some advice.
Dwyer: It's just... I don't think I'm suited for the battlefield.
Elise: Why do you say that?
Dwyer: You know why. I hate getting into fights. All I would do is weigh everyone else down in the heat of battle.
Elise: Oh, Dwyer, don't say that.
Dwyer: Maybe I should just leave the army and go off to be a butler or something.
Elise: You can't do that.
Dwyer: Huh?
Elise: You belong here.
Dwyer: Why?
Elise: Because you're kind.
Dwyer: No, I'm not.
Elise: Yes, you are! Moments ago you lied only to keep me from worrying about you. You can't help but think of other people.
Dwyer: All the more proof that I have no business on the battlefield. There's no place for kindness there...
Elise: You're wrong about that, Dwyer. Kindness is needed especially because it's a battlefield. Protecting your friends in spite of danger is very noble. It's a skill that doesn't come easy to most people, but it's incredibly important. You understand what I mean, right?

Dwyer: So? What's up?
Elise: I just... I might be a horrible mother.
Dwyer: Don't even say that.
Elise: I basically told you... that you belong on the battlefield.
Dwyer: You mean when I was worried the other day?
Elise: Yeah. A real mother's first and foremost concern should be her child's safety, right? But I tell you to risk your neck in the war. No decent parent does that.
Dwyer: That's not true.
Elise: Huh?
Dwyer: You may have suggested that I stand and fight, but it was my choice to stay. Not yours.
Elise: Oh.
Dwyer: More importantly, I needed your wisdom. I might have put my friends in danger without your encouragement.
Elise: I had no idea.
Dwyer: So stop worrying. You have not failed me. You're the best mother any child could ever hope for.

Elise: Hooray! That was super nice of them.
Sophie: Yeah, I thought so too!
Elise: Do you know why they did that, though?
Sophie: Maybe they were worried that I would burn everything?
Elise: Nope! People see you trying so hard, and they think to themselves... "Look at her go! I'd better do everything I can to help!"
Sophie: They do? I don't know...
Elise: No, trust me! You don't have a thing to worry about. Smile, and the world will smile with you!

Midori: Well... I was in the forest collecting a few herbs, and some kids came up to me. They asked where my parents were and laughed when I said I was an adult. Then they said they were going deeper into the forest. I tried to stop them... But they turned to me and said, "Kids can't tell us what to do!" and ran off.
Elise: That's horrible, sweetie. Did they make it home safely?
Midori: Yes, they did. I watched them carefully to make sure they made it back OK.
Elise: That was very thoughtful, especially after how they treated you.
Midori: I guess you're right...

Midori: Yup, those ones! Well, I ran into them in town earlier, and they were so nice. They apologized and everything!
Elise: That's great! I'm glad they finally understood that you were trying to help.
Midori: Yeah! Well, that and apparently their parents got mad and yelled at them for being mean. But they said they were really, really sorry.
Elise: They actually seem like nice kids after all, don't you think?
Midori: Yeah! We're friends now! But, um... They invited me to go back into the deep forest with them. They said that we would be fine, now that I'm coming along. At first I thought they might be right, but... We still shouldn't go, right?
Elise: No, you really shouldn't go. The deep forest is a very dangerous place, even for adults. It would mean the world to me if you would stay away from there.
Midori: Of course, Mother. I promise. Anyway, I already suggested that the kids come with me to collect some rare herbs. I told them it'd be much more fun than wandering around some dank, dark forest.
Elise: That's a wonderful idea, Midori. You go and have fun.

Percy: What? No, I was just...pretending! Yeah, I was totally just pretending it hurt. I can't believe you actually fell for that. Go ahead, put on more medicine! I can take it.
Elise: Don't be ridiculous, Percy. I only needed a tiny amount. So how did you get this little battle injury?
Percy: I was running down a mountain as fast as I could. But I lost my footing and tripped.
Elise: And you only got this itty-bitty scrape? You could have broken your neck! Do me a favor and knock off the dangerous training, OK?
Percy: But... How can I get strong enough to protect you if I do?
Elise: I appreciate the thought, Percy. But if it means putting yourself in harm's way, I'll have no part in it. The last thing I want is for you to really hurt yourself. Do you understand?
Percy: You're right... I'm sorry, Mom.
Elise: It's OK, sweetie. Now then, how about you have a bite to eat before you run off again?
Percy: That sounds great. All that tumbling made me hungry!
A Support
Percy: Hey, Mom...
Elise: Hello, Percy. What's wrong? You look a little sad today.
Percy: I'm just not sure if I can actually get strong enough to protect you.
Elise: Why do you say that?
Percy: There are so many strong people all around the camp. Much stronger than me... What do I do if I come across a foe who is more powerful than I am? Thinking about that makes me lose confidence...
Elise: I see what you're saying, but don't worry. If you work very hard, one day you can be strongest of all.
Percy: You're just trying to make me feel better...
Elise: No, really, I mean it! It's obvious that you're very dedicated to training. That hard work will pay off. Keep at it, and someday you could be the strongest person in the world!
Percy: Someday isn't good enough! What if evil rears its head before I'm ready to defeat it?
Elise: Don't you worry about that. Until you're strong enough, I'll keep you safe. I'm actually pretty tough. And eventually, once you're the strongest person ever, I'll let you protect me. Sound good?
Percy: Yeah. Yeah, that sounds like a great plan. It's a deal! I'm gonna work as hard as possible to become strong. Then no enemy will dare challenge me.
Elise: I'll cheer you on! But for the time being, let's eat dinner. I even made your favorite dish.
Percy: Yay! Thanks, Mom.

Ophelia: Mother! My situation is terribly dire...
Elise: Oh no! What's wrong, Ophelia?
Ophelia: Within my depths, a greedy beast stirs. It demands a hearty offering.
Elise: Heehee. Are you hungry?
Ophelia: Precisely! You know me so well.
Elise: Why of course I do! Your mother is a chosen one after all.
Ophelia: Y-you are?! Somehow...I always suspected. I have to admit, I'm a bit jealous. I wish I were a chosen one too! Then we could battle side by side!
Elise: Heehee. Wouldn't that be something!
Ophelia: First we'd better quiet this grumbling in my belly...
Elise: Right! How about I prepare you a nice, tasty lunch?
Ophelia: Let me help! What should I do first?
Elise: Could you grab us a few plates please?
Ophelia: Of course! In my mind's eye I can see that this meal will be... AHHH!
Ophelia: Mother! Oh dear! My shattered-plate fortune-telling reveals...
Elise: Now, Ophelia. The polite thing to do is apologize after you break something.
Ophelia: You're right. I'm sorry...
B Support
Ophelia: *sigh*
Elise: What's bothering you?
Ophelia: Wow, chosen ones really do observe everything. Of course you can tell...
Elise: Why not just say what's on your mind? You know I'm always happy to listen!
Ophelia: Well, I've tried to glimpse forward. Into the future... Oh, Mother! Do you think I will be a chosen one?
Elise: Why would you ever doubt yourself?
Ophelia: Well, it's just that I'm not strong like you and Father.
Elise: Ophelia, sweetie. Don't you worry. There is more to being a chosen one than strength alone!
Ophelia: You make everything appear so effortless.
Elise: I wasn't always so strong, Ophelia.
Ophelia: What do you mean?
Elise: My strength grew from becoming a chosen one.
Ophelia: Really?
Elise: Tell me, sweetie, do you know who chose me?
Ophelia: Hmm. Fate? Or the gods, perhaps?
Elise: Heehee! Good guess! No, I was chosen by you, sweetie.
Ophelia: By me? What do you mean?
Elise: Your birth gave me more strength than I ever thought possible. I realized I had to watch over you, no matter what.
Ophelia: Wow...
Elise: So don't you fret! One day, you'll be a chosen one, just like me!
Ophelia: Aww. Thanks, Mother.
A Support
Ophelia: Good morning!
Elise: Ophelia, you're practically glowing! Why are you so cheerful today?
Ophelia: Because of you, Mother! You pulled me free when I had sunk into a tide pool of despair.
Elise: That is a little melodramatic, sweetie. Glad to know I helped though!
Ophelia: Now that I have moved past that darkness, I need you to teach me everything. Battlefield strategy, culinary techniques... Whatever wisdom you can spare.
Elise: Why are you so motivated all of a sudden?
Ophelia: Generations to come should benefit from your wisdom. I want your help, Mother. I need to become stronger. With your guidance, I can develop the tenacity to back up my words.
Elise: Heehee! That's my girl!
Ophelia: I beg you! Teach me everything so I can carry on your proud tradition.
Elise: Well...it won't be simple. And I won't be easy on you, sweetie.
Ophelia: Oh, Mother! Thank you! Where should we start? Chores?
Elise: That pile of dishes looks like as good a starting place as any.
Ophelia: These ones here? Don't worry, I'll have these clea— AHHH!
Ophelia: Umm, Mother? I broke the dishes. Again. I'm sorry.
Elise: It's just a plate, sweetie. And hey! You apologized right away this time too!
Ophelia: Well, a true chosen one would never hide from their mistakes, right?
Elise: Heehee! Looks like you're already learning, Ophelia!

Soleil: Hey, Mom! Say, what are you doing? Sharpening up some blades?
Elise: Hi, Soleil! You're so energetic today. Oh, and yes. I have to make sure each weapon is still strong, durable, and sharp. Otherwise they aren't much good on the battlefield.
Soleil: Sure, that makes sense...
Elise: Wh-what is it? Is something wrong? Why are you just staring at me?
Soleil: Shh, be quiet for a second. Let me just take this in for a minute. You really are the perfect mother. I'll never forget seeing you here with a glinting blade in your hand. Your hair blowing gently in the wind... Heehee! It's way too adorable! This is such a cute little scene!
Elise: Ahahaha, stop teasing me, Soleil. You're way too much. I'm just trying to do my part by keeping the armory in shape. Times are tough, and everyone needs to pitch in and help.
Soleil: Stop it, Mom! I'm serious. You're being way too humble about this whole thing. Until I saw you just now, I never knew how elegant weapon maintenance could be. The way you hold each sword just so... Or how your brow furrows in concentration... I can't handle it! Everything is so crazy cute with you! We have to run into town and grab some tea together. I have to know how you became such a world-class cutie!
Elise: Maybe another time, Soleil. I still have a whole pile of swords that need attention. Will you excuse me?

Soleil: Wait, Mom! Please, don't go!

Soleil: Strong hands running through pure, golden feed... With a quick flick of the wrist, she scatters the food deftly on the ground... Sweet, fluffy critters line up just to bask in her presence... Heehee...
Elise: Soleil, would you mind giving me a little space please? I have a lot of work to do, and you're very distracting.
Soleil: I can't help it! You're the one who decided to do your chores in such a cute way! If you don't want me to be so distracting, then dial down the cuteness already!
Elise: You're starting to make me really mad! Knock it off!
Soleil: Geez, you're even cuter when you get all flustered. Aww...
Elise: *sigh* You clearly inherited that love of compliments from your father... But please, can you get out of the way? There's still a ton of work to be done.
Soleil: Really? But you've been working all morning! Can't you take a break? Please?! I got a pretty red blanket from the fair. We should go have a picnic on it! It would be such a cute, idyllic scene, don't you think?
Elise: If I stop now, there's no way that I'll have enough time to finish up everything.
Soleil: Wow, Mom. Do you work this hard every single day?
Elise: Of course. This is a perfectly normal amount of work.
Soleil: Oh, I had no idea.
Elise: I have to tend to the horses. Do you mind moving aside?
Soleil: Let me help!
Elise: Really? I'd appreciate the help, actually. Would you mind cutting all these carrots in half? The horses will love them.
Soleil: Oh my gosh, has anyone ever looked cuter than us two right now? Just feeding the horses together, heehee!
Elise: Give it a rest already, Soleil!

Elise: I better get to work on rationing out our new batch of supplies.
Soleil: Moooom! HI, MOM!
Elise: S-Soleil? What do you want?! I'm too busy to talk right now. There's no time for me to indulge your silliness today.
Soleil: I'm not here to harp on how cute you look counting all these sacks of rice. I mean, it is delightful. Heehee... Sorry, I got distracted. I came here to tell you something important. I've learned so much by watching you work the last few days... I feel like I appreciate all your efforts more than ever. I had no idea how much work it takes to get everything done around here! I've never met someone who works as hard as you do.
Elise: Hmm, well that's kind of you to say.
Soleil: That's why I've made a big decision. I'm going to work just as hard as you do! After all, you're my mother! I can't stand by and let you do all the chores by yourself!
Elise: That's very considerate of you, Soleil. But don't worry about it. I can handle all of this work alone.
Soleil: Gosh, it's so cute to watch you be so selfless. But please, I really wanna help! Isn't there something I can do?
Elise: Well if you insist, I suppose you can give me a hand.
Soleil: Yay! Thanks! I'll work really hard. You can count on me!
Elise: I know you will. But I have one important condition though. You can't keep harping on how cute you think everything is, OK? It's driving me crazy.
Soleil: Hahaha, you're so silly, Mom. That's impossible! We're a total dream team! These chores will be twice as cute with us working together.
Elise: Don't start, Soleil!

Nina: Mmm...that was really something. The way those men were chatting like old friends... What could they have been talking about? The mind wanders…
Elise: Hi there, Nina!
Nina: Gah! Mother?! What are you doing here? I thought you were training! You didn't hear me talking about...stuff... Did you?
Elise: Hmm? Like what?
Nina: Nope! Don't worry about it! Whew...
Elise: Oh, good news, though! I was cleaning up a bit, and I just finished with your room!
Nina: Mother! That's my private space.
Elise: You had a bunch of books under your bed, but I put them on your desk for you.
Nina: Oh my gods, oh my gods, oh my gods... PLEASE tell me you didn't open any of those books...
Elise: Don't be silly! I almost never open a book if I can help it.
Nina: My diaries and journals, Mother! Did you read them or didn't you?
Elise: Oh, those! Nope, I didn't peek. I mean, maybe a little bit, to get an idea of which stack to put them in. But definitely nothing past the first few pages! Or so.
Nina: What's that supposed to mean? It sounds like you DID read them! Well? Did you or didn't you? ARRRRGH!
B Support
Nina: *sigh* Why does it have to be so difficult…
Elise: Gosh, that sigh... You must be dealing with something heavy, Nina.
Nina: Oh...hi, Mother. I...I dunno.
Elise: Tell me! Tell me! I wanna see if I can help you stop moping around!
Nina: Well, I suppose things can't get any worse... I...I have a hard time talking to guys. But I think about them all the time! I feel like such a freak. Like they know that I'm thinking about them... And I just clam up and turn red. It's so awful!
Elise: Awww. Don't worry, you're not the only one who gets tongue-tied!
Nina: Ugh, you don't understand! When I finally manage to stammer a few words out... I start acting super mean and creepy for no reason! I need to change. But I don't know how...
Elise: If you didn't know you were doing it, it would be hard. But you do, so it should be easy! Before you talk to anyone, take a second to think about how you want to act. Before too long, it'll be second nature!
Nina: You really think so?
Elise: Yep! It'll take practice, but I'm positive you'll get it eventually!
Nina: Thanks, Mother. I actually feel a little bit better.
Elise: Glad to help, honey! It did seem like you could use some, going by those journals...
Nina: Wait, so you DID read them? AGHHH! I'm going to DIEEEEEE!
A Support
Nina: Hey, Mother. Guess what? I talked to a guy today, and it wasn't weird at all!
Elise: That's great! Good for you. Tell me all about it!
Nina: Well, it was pretty basic as far as talking goes. I just gave him directions. But I didn't say anything weird or run away randomly!
Elise: It's a good start!
Nina: Right? I've been giggling about it all afternoon.
Elise: Keep that up, and you'll be a real chatterbox! Then you can graduate to hosting parties on your own! That'll be more fun than your other hobbies, right?
Nina: I thought we agreed to never speak of...my hobbies...ever again!
Elise: Sorry! I didn't mean to poke a sore spot. You shouldn't be ashamed, though! Those were some super-neat stalking strategies you came up with!
Nina: How many of my diaries did you read, Mother? Jeez!
Elise: A bunch! Corrin and I like to trade off and read the best parts to each other.
Nina: WHAT?! Why would you do that? WHY?
Elise: We're fascinated by what a good spy you are! Corrin has some ideas about using your journals as training manuals. We'll have the best spy division in the whole world!
Nina: Great. Now everyone will know what a huge freak I am. Thanks, Mother.
Elise: Awww, Nina. I'll love you no matter how weird your hobbies are! Now come gimme a hug!

Shiro: Hey, Mom! Do you feel like doing something today?
Elise: Huh? What do you mean? Right now?
Shiro: Well, we didn't get to spend much time together when I was growing up, right? Maybe now we can make up for that with some mom-son bonding time!
Elise: Wow, what a sweet thought, Shiro! I can't really think of anything to do at the moment. I appreciate the thought, though!
Shiro: Really? Nothing at all? But how can we bond if you can't think of anything? I mean, I can't spend time with Dad. He's always preoccupied with the war. Though I guess you don't see him often either. Has he ever even given you any gifts?
Elise: Sh-Shiro... Your father isn't like that.
Shiro: Well, I'm not like HIM! I want you to know how special you are. Come on, please! Can't you think of something you'd like to do together?
Elise: Teehee. Oh, Shiro.
Shiro: Wh-why are you laughing at me?!
Elise: Because you're so cute! Please, give him a break. I know it's hard not having him here. But your father is a good man. He'd be terribly hurt to hear you say otherwise. In spite of everything, being his wife is wonderful. He treats me quite well!
Shiro: But he's never here to show you that he really cares. Isn't that his duty?
Elise: I know your father loves me, sweetie. If you like, I'll even show you real proof someday!
Shiro: I'm curious to see this so-called proof. I'll hold you to your word!
Elise: Heehee... Just you wait!
B Support
Elise: There you are, Shiro! Do you have a second to talk?
Shiro: Sure! Umm, what are those envelopes?
Elise: These are the proof you were asking for. This is how your father shows his undying love for me.
Shiro: Oh... Are those love letters?
Elise: That's right! Each and every one is like a treasure to me. I've kept every one that he has sent. This is the very first one that he ever wrote... And this one is the most recent.
Shiro: Wow. I had no idea that Dad was such a prolific writer.
Elise: He sure is! I was a little surprised when they kept arriving. One or two letters, sure, but he has sent me dozens! He likes to tell me about his feelings in person too. I think writing allows him to be truly free with his emotions. It's a tender part of him that I just adore! Teehee... Did I catch you off guard, Shiro?
Shiro: Well, I've always thought Dad was stiff and formal... I'm just surprised. Maybe I've been wrong all along. Tell me, what does he write about?
Elise: Heehee, that's a secret, sweetie! These letters are for my eyes only.
Shiro: But now I'm even more curious! I guess I can accept that you two really do care about each other.
Elise: We sure do! And most importantly, we love you dearly!
Shiro: I-I know that! But thank you, Mom.
Elise: Teehee! Of course!
A Support
Shiro: Hey, Mom! Do you have a minute?
Elise: Sure! What's up, Shiro?
Shiro: Well, after you showed me Dad's letters, I started thinking... I thought maybe I'd try writing out my thoughts and my feelings, too. You know, what it's like to be your son... that kind of thing.
Elise: You did? Aww, that's so sweet!
Shiro: I thought so too at first... But now it just doesn't seem good enough.
Elise: Huh? What do you mean?
Shiro: I realized it's not very special if I'm just doing the same thing that he does, right? That's why I decided to treat you to a delicious meal too!
Elise: Wow! A nice meal? You shouldn't have!
Shiro: Yeah, anything you want! Well, anything I can find in the forest at least. I can't get started until you tell me what you'd like to eat. Anything sound good?
Elise: Really? Hmm... I love so many kinds of food. Can I have a bit of time to think about it?
Shiro: Of course! I guess it would be hard to think of something off the top of your head. Just let me know!
Elise: I will.
Shiro: Most importantly, now I've got a leg up on Dad!
Elise: Shiro, you don't need to compete with your father over me.
Shiro: But I'd feel like a terrible son if I wasn't able to make you happy.
Elise: It's funny you should say that... Your father once told me the same thing about himself!
Shiro: Really? He did?!
Elise: Yep! You two are more alike than you realize.
Shiro: Damn! He's always got an advantage over me!
Elise: Teehee, you're a silly boy... Being loved so much makes me very happy.

Kiragi: Ah, the great outdoors. What a perfect day to do some hunting! The mountains look very appealing... But I did see a lot of game in that field the other day. So many choices!
Elise: Stop right there, Kiragi!
Kiragi: Yikes! H-hey, Mom. You sure are good at sneaking these days.
Elise: Did I scare you?
Kiragi: Obviously. You look like you're about to attack me!
Elise: That's because you're out here, and you absolutely shouldn't be. What am I going to do with you...
Kiragi: I'm really sorry. I promise I'll do it as soon as I get home tonight, OK?
Elise: I've heard that too many times before. Every time you get back from hunting, you just grab something to eat and go to bed. Not this time.
Kiragi: B-but I'm so terrible at math, and no good at history!
Elise: Which is exactly why you need to devote more time to practicing. I already told you that I would help with your studies.
Kiragi: I can survive being bad at math and history. I don't see what the big deal is.
Elise: Kiragi, there is bad, and then there is abysmal. You are beyond abysmal. Your father and I should have realized that much sooner, and we're sorry. But now that we are all together again, we want to do everything we can to assist you. I know it doesn't seem like it, but this will be so good for you!
Kiragi: *grumble*
Elise: Let's go home. I know hunting is more fun, but some day you'll thank me for pushing you.
Kiragi: No! This isn't fair! Hunting is the only thing I have to look forward to! Don't try and take that away from me. You may be my mom, but you can't force me to do anything! I'm going hunting, and I don't care whether you like it or not!

Elise: Kiragi, get back here! Well that could have gone better...
B Support
Kiragi: What an amazing day! No one will be going hungry anytime soon. That bird sure gave me a lot of trouble. I should look it up when I get home. Maybe I need to build some new traps, too.
(Kiragi leaves)
Kiragi: OK, careful. Easy does it... I can't let Mom know that I was out hunting instead of resting. "Work harder on your studies!" That's all she ever thinks about... Like I need math or history to be a good hunter.
(Kiragi leaves)
Elise: Hmm. No, that's unrelated. Maybe if I rewrite it like this...
(Elise leaves)
Kiragi: What's this? It looks like she's writing something down.
(Kiragi leaves)
Elise: Instead of using just numbers, we can change these to rabbits in a trap... I bet that would help him understand.
(Elise leaves)
Kiragi: What is she doing there?
(Kiragi leaves)
Elise: Oh, rats! Where did I stick that book? I know it's around here somewhere. I need to track it down so I can start his history lessons.
(Elise leaves)
Kiragi: Geez, she's working really hard.
(Kiragi leaves)
Elise: He just hasn't had to memorize things. If we move slowly and cover everything... I know that he'll catch on soon enough.
Kiragi: Hey, Mom.
Elise: Oh! Welcome home, Kiragi. Why are you just standing there?
Kiragi: You knew I wasn't here?
Elise: Of course. You forgot to close the bedroom door when you left.
Kiragi: Oh, I did? Oops. I just wanted to say... Well, I'm sorry, Mom. You're putting so much energy into helping me learn, and then I just run off to hunt. I'm really sorry.
Elise: Shhh, it's all right, Kiragi. It's important that we both understand where the other is coming from. I know that hunting is your passion. I just want you to balance that with some studying too!
Kiragi: I will! I didn't really realize how much this mattered until I saw you just now. Please, teach me! I want to learn about math and history!
Elise: Do you really mean it? That makes me so happy. Would you like to get started?
Kiragi: OK! But wait. I'm totally covered in mud. Let me change real quick—then we can start! Wait right here!
(Kiragi leaves)
A Support
Kiragi: All right! I solved it! Take that, math problem!
Elise: Hang on, let me check your work. Hmm. The answer is right, but...
Kiragi: Oh, yeah... I know you normally start on the right... But if you make an assumption here, you can skip a bunch of extra calculations! I think the book called it an advanced method, but it wasn't that tough.
Elise: An advanced method? Great job, Kiragi!
Kiragi: Hehheh!
Elise: Looks like your history assignment is perfect too. All the years, places, and important events are in the correct spots. You didn't miss a thing. I'm so proud!
Kiragi: It was so much easier once I started thinking of them as fantastic stories. Boring random facts are so much harder to remember. And it helps to have a great teacher, too!
Elise: I only encouraged you. All of this progress is because of you. You've come so far because of all this hard work.
Kiragi: Stop, Mom! You're going to make me blush.
Elise: That's all I had for you to cover today. It's still nice and sunny. Why don't you run and do some hunting?
Kiragi: Ehh, that's all right.
Elise: Hmm?
Kiragi: I mean, hunting is great and all. But... I'd love to study some more with you.
Elise: Aww, really?
Kiragi: You made me understand that studying can be so much fun! I can't believe that I used to dread it. We can keep going, right?
Elise: Sure! It makes me happy to spend all this time together.
Kiragi: Me too!
