Part I questions

“	The tea here does absolutely nothing for me. I could send for some supplies from home, but is there truly not a soul in this place with tea fit for a noble?	”

Liked response	Disliked response	Disliked response
Lorenz would be a good source.	Ask Felix for some tea leaves.	Caspar might know where to find some.

“	There are many citizens of the Empire who are currently in despair. I think it is time for a change in leadership. Perhaps someone new should ascend the throne?	”

Liked response	Disliked response	Disliked response
You would do well as a ruler, Ferdinand.	Edelgard is the obvious choice.	Perhaps it's time the Empire fell.

Part II questions

“	Growing out my hair was not intentional. I was busy with other things in life, so I never thought to get it cut. It hurts that others think I grew my hair out to be fashionable.	”

Liked response	Disliked response	Disliked response
It looks good on you.	It doesn't suit you.	You look like a scruffy dog.

“	Nobles must never lose their composure. We must always exude an aura of grace. That said, is it necessary for us to be graceful on the battlefield as well?	”

Liked response	Disliked response	Disliked response
In battle, survival is all that matters.	You must maintain your grace at all times.	Virtuousness is more important than grace.

You can join my class.	You should stay with your current class.
Hah, I thought you would say that. I look forward to learning under you. You will soon see how superior I am to Edelgard.	Hm. That is disappointing. I suppose not everyone can appreciate my excellence. But I am sure you will change your mind soon.

Ferdinand: Hm, all right. I will do what I can.	”	— Stable duty or sky watch with Dorothea and no or C support between them

“	Dorothea: Oh. I'm with you, Ferdie. This should be fun. Ferdinand: Dorothea, being nice to me? I will do my best! Like my very life depends on it! Dorothea: Your life doesn't have to depend on... Let's just do things normally.	”	— Stable duty or sky watch with Dorothea and an A support between them

“	Dorothea: Oh my. Ferdie, are you going to be OK with such difficult manual labor as weeding? Ferdinand: It is no trouble. I used to help the gardener on my family's estate. I can weed with the best of them. Dorothea: A gardener and a nobleman. My, how refined.	”	— Weeding with Dorothea

“	Ferdinand: Leave it to me to carry the rubble, Dorothea. This task is too rough for your delicate hands. Dorothea: Are you implying that women aren't strong?

“	Lorenz: The expected result, for someone of my skills. Ferdinand: Yes, we did quite well! All thanks to me, of course.	”	— Perfect result with Lorenz and no or C support between them

“	Ferdinand: I sought perfection, and I fell far short. I apologize. Lorenz: I am also to blame. As noblemen, we must bear responsibility for our failures.	”	— Good result with Lorenz and a B support between them

“	Ferdinand: Professor, look upon our glorious achievement! I hope you are not blinded by its brilliance. Lorenz: All the same, you must shade your eyes and look. You would not want to miss history in the making.	”	— Perfect result with Lorenz and a B support between them
