A Time to Shine - Opening

English・Japanese

Sharenaシャロン	...And that's the tour of the castle! If you have any questions, just ask!		...以上が、この城の説明となります。 なにかわからないことがあったら、 遠慮なく聞いてくださいね！
Thank you, Princess Sharena...		ありがとう...ございます、 シャロン王女。		Nagiナギ
Norneノルン	I can hardly believe we were shown around the castle by the princess herself... I feel like I should apologize!		王女様自らお城を案内してくれるなんて、 とっても恐縮です...！
Not at all! We're counting on all you Heroes to help us, after all! Showing you around the castle is the least I can do!		いえいえ、わたしたちのほうこそ 英雄の皆さんに力を貸して もらっちゃってるんですから！ 感謝してもしきれません！		Sharenaシャロン
Siriusシリウス	If it is our purpose, I, for one, will focus all my effort on restoring peace to Askr.		旅路の果てにこの国に流れついたのも なにかの縁...微力ながら、平和を取り戻す 手助けをさせてもらおう。
Well, I'm happy to hear it! Now I have some other things to take care of, but I'll see you all later!		頼りにしていますね！ それではまた！		Sharenaシャロン
Phinaフィーナ	...		......
Is something...wrong, Phina?		フィーナ...？		Nagiナギ
Phinaフィーナ	Hm? Oh, I'm just a bit in awe after seeing so many Heroes as we toured the castle halls!		さっき、お城の中を案内して もらっていたとき、 広間に大勢の英雄がいたわよね。
Same here! There were Heroes so famous, I already knew their names! ...And quite a few of them too!		あたしでも名前を知っているような そうそうたる英雄が揃っていたけど... それがどうかしたの？		Norneノルン
Phinaフィーナ	The Order of Heroes is made up of such extraordinary people... We'll have to try really hard to stand out!		ヴァイス・ブレイヴは個性派揃い...！ しっかり目立っておかないと、 私たちは埋もれちゃうわ！
Stand...out? Where must we stand?		埋もれて...しまう？ それは...封印されたり 埋葬されたりすると...？		Nagiナギ
Phinaフィーナ	I mean we need to be useful, or we might be overlooked compared to all the great Heroes already here!		この場合は、私たちの出番がなくなる 可能性があるってことね。
B-but...what can we do to be useful when everyone here is already so willing and able?!		で、でも、目立つって言っても... 具体的にどうやるの？		Norneノルン
Phinaフィーナ	If you ask me...we should focus on what's important: looking good! Good fashion sense will make us shine! If we can draw everyone's eyes, there's NO WAY we'll be overlooked!		それはね...ズバリ、オシャレよ！ 服やアクセサリーのセンスを磨いて、 バーンと目立つの！ みんなの注目を集めることができれば ヴァイス・ブレイヴの中で私たちの 存在感をアピールできるはずよ！
We were called here to risk our lives on the battlefield. We have little time to worry about our appearance...		...待ってくれ。 我々は戦場で命のやりとりを しているのだ。 格好などに気を取られている暇など ないと思うのだが...		Siriusシリウス
Phinaフィーナ	Is that so, Sirius? Why the mask then? Is it not to look...FASHIONABLE?		言ってくれるじゃないシリウスさん。 じゃあその仮面はなによ！？ オシャレ意識してるんじゃないの！？
...No. This mask serves a much more consequential purpose.		...いや、この仮面には、 やむにやまれぬ事情が...		Siriusシリウス
Phinaフィーナ	Sirius, didn't you say you want to lend Prince Marth your strength? If you never get deployed, you won't be able to help Prince Marth when he needs you the most, right?		シリウスさん、以前に マルス王子の力になりたいって 言っていたわよね？ でも、出撃する機会がなかったら マルス王子が助けを必要としているときに 力添えできない可能性もあるわよ？
...		......		Siriusシリウス
Nagiナギ	I...do not understand this...fashion. But...if it can deepen our bonds with others, so we might aid them...		わたしは...知らない。 あなたのいう... オシャレというもののことを...... でも、 みなと絆を深め、親しむことが できるのなら...
All right, then it's decided! Since we were all brought here together, let's all work together! And so...let Operation: Time to Shine begin! Let's all do our best to stand out so we're not overlooked!		よーし、決まりね！　同じタイミングで この世界に呼ばれたもの同士、 ここは協力しましょう！ それじゃ、オシャレ大作戦開始ね！ 出撃する機会をふやすため、目立って 存在感をアピールするわよ！		Phinaフィーナ
Norneノルン	Hmm... I'm not so sure about this...		うーん...うまくいくのかな...

A Time to Shine - C

English・Japanese

Phinaフィーナ	All right, everyone, are your accessories at the ready? Time for an inspection! Remember: We don't want just to stand out... People need to witness our sense for decorative attire!
How do I look? I can't say I understand accessorizing all too well, but...				Norneノルン
Phinaフィーナ	Looks pretty good to me! Fashion essentials like that never go out of style. Inspection passed!
I...have this...				Nagiナギ
Phinaフィーナ	Th-this seems...quite rare! ...Maybe? Definitely unique! I think people will like it either way. Inspection passed!
The purpose of this tactic escapes me, but...will this accessory suffice?				Siriusシリウス
Phinaフィーナ	Well, it certainly screams "Sirius"... I must admit that it IS a striking look, though, so...inspection passed! Last but not least: me! My accessory multiplies a girl's charm several times over! What do you think?
How cute! It really does help you stand out too!				Norneノルン
Phinaフィーナ	With these, we should be able to catch Alfonse's eye—and those of the other Heroes too! Just wait! We're about to be the most dispatched crew in the castle! And that's how we'll be of the most use when it comes to creating peace in Askr!
I see... It must be my destiny...				Nagiナギ
Siriusシリウス	Such optimism... I should like to learn to be so positive myself.
All right... Now's the time! Let's put on those accessories and shine our brightest out there! Let everyone witness our mastery of both presence and appeal!				Phinaフィーナ
Norneノルン	Er, Phina... Hey, wait! ...Of course she'd run off like that. I know we want to help, but...I can't shake loose the feeling that there might be a better way...

A Time to Shine - B

English・Japanese

Phinaフィーナ	Hmm... Operation: Time to Shine isn't going as well as I hoped... How's it going on your end, Norne?
I haven't noticed any particular benefits yet, but, uhh... Oh! But I gave Princess Sharena an accessory, and I've seen her wearing it around the castle! So, I think she's enjoying her accessory, but...that might be all, benefit-wise.				Norneノルン
Phinaフィーナ	Hm. Could mean anything... We'll just have to keep trying and see if we can notice any CLEAR benefits! Sirius already has a mask... Maybe he could show up places and put on some kind of dramatic performance? "The Great Sirius, masked wanderer and knight who fight for true love!" ...Something like that—but better?
... Never.				Siriusシリウス
Phinaフィーナ	Hmph! Fine... But it would've DEFINITELY gotten us some attention... That much I know! What about...Nagi! Maybe some makeup to really highlight her otherworldly style? And we can lean into the fact she lost her memories to bring her tragic past to the forefront!
...Tragic...past?				Nagiナギ
Norneノルン	... Ah, er, Phina? I think...we may not need to work so hard to stand out.
Huh? Why not? If you don't work hard, you won't stand out, and then you won't get any chance to shine!				Phinaフィーナ
Norneノルン	This is just me talking, but...I've started thinking of the Order of Heroes a bit like a grand castle... The famous and active Heroes are outer walls, protecting...but also being all that anyone ever sees... BUT if ya don't have a solid foundation, the castle won't stay standing too long... No one ever really sees the foundation, and maybe no one even ever comments... But for me, being that foundation is just fine. I just want to help. Doesn't much matter how.
...				Phinaフィーナ
Siriusシリウス	Although it brings no fame, I must agree, the foundation's role is one of absolute necessity.
You just want to...help? You don't even care if you get recognition? ...Huh.				Phinaフィーナ

A Time to Shine - A

English・Japanese

Phinaフィーナ	I'm sorry, everyone. I messed up!
Oh, don't worry, Phina...				Norneノルン
Phinaフィーナ	I realized that whether you stand out has more to do with what's on the inside than what's on the outside. I feel awful about dragging you all along on my silly attempt at getting recognition... I'm sorry.
I learned long ago that to fight for glory is folly. If I can protect those dear to me, that is enough. As long as they are well, there is no need to stand out.				Siriusシリウス
Phinaフィーナ	You're right. And having seen how you conduct yourself, Sirius...I think I understand what you mean.
That said...being unable to afford to give your loved one a single gift is no point of pride for a knight... So, I actually...tried crafting my own variation on a proper accessory, but, well... What do you think?				Siriusシリウス
Phinaフィーナ	Sirius! A...SECOND accessory?!
I-it's actually quite dashing!				Norneノルン
Nagiナギ	I, too, have one more accessory...
Oh, wow! I didn't expect that... It's beautiful, though, Nagi!				Phinaフィーナ
Nagiナギ	I am not sure I understand their purpose... But I enjoyed making them. I may not have had any memories before... But now I have one...and it is a good one. Thank you...for including me...
Since everyone else did too, I guess I'll admit I also...made another accessory. I like to look good too, y'know!				Norneノルン
Phinaフィーナ	You...all...have AMAZING FASHION SENSE! I-it's incredible!
...Phina, you wanted to be deployed because you wanted to do whatever ya could to help everyone out. We could all sense that was your true motivation.				Norneノルン
Phinaフィーナ	R-right! Definitely NOT because I want to be in a position to spend time with Navarre on the battlefield!
Why— Are you...blushing?				Siriusシリウス
Nagiナギ	Phina... From here on, let us continue to work together...
Even if success eludes us at first, we needn't panic, only keep moving forward. That is what is important. If you never stop moving forward... someday, you will surely shine amongst the brightest of Heroes.				Siriusシリウス
Phinaフィーナ	You're right... And as long as I'm with you all, I know I'll make it in this...or in any world! Whatever role this world has in store for me, I'm ready to play it as best I can! That's a promise!
