Why, you're hard at work as always, <player>! If you're on patrol, please allow me to assist you. I shall try to predict your path and remove any pebbles or weeds that might obstruct your progress. My foremost duty will always be to the royal house of Ylisse—that will never change. But... I feel I should make time to look after you as well. Perhaps I've grown attached to you... Well, enough lollygagging—I have pebbles to clear. Please, don't mind me! Continue patrolling!

Level 40 quote

I feel that I've gotten much stronger since I came here. You've put a lot of time and energy into my training. Honestly, I had my misgivings at first. I never expected you to take me seriously, dressed like this... How wrong I was. You helped me train. Even so, I worried that you might earn my trust and then...you'd spring a terrible surprise on me. I spent my nights sleepless, certain you'd suddenly force me to eat bear... But thinking about it, I confess I can see no reason you'd ever do that, Summoner. To make amends, I'll give my utmost on the battlefield. I've always relied on my armor, but now it's my zeal that will see me through!

Level 40 quote

Greetings, Summoner. How may I be of service? Oh, is there a matter you wish to discuss? Ah, yes, the previously empty castle room. If I recall, you cheerfully agreed to my request concerning that room. The Ylissean royal family requires suitably royal lodging, so I performed a few minor renovations. After I deep-cleaned the carpets, I noticed that the walls looked quite barren. So I knit this banner... It depicts Exalt Emmeryn, flanked by her honorable siblings. All three are draped in gleaming regalia. Topped with the holy crest of House Ylisse, it evokes a sense of youthful vigor and new beginnings. What's that? You'd...like me to move it? Perhaps a more public locale— Oh gods! I've forgotten to add a motto! If I added cloth here... How about... "All Fidelity and Esteem unto the Illustrious Exalt and Her Kin!" Yes, that should do. My thanks for your aid, friend! I will correct this grievous error with utmost haste!
