Anna	Enemies are approaching! Everyone at the ready, quick!
Seteth	The time has come for us to be of use. Catherine, Shamir, show them the strength of the Knights of Seiros.
Catherine	Will do! No matter the foe, we'll make them regret challenging us. Isn't that right, partner?
Shamir	Sure. I won't turn down a paying job.
Flayn	Wait a moment! I will join you in battle!
Seteth	Flayn! What are you doing here? It is far too dangerous. You are to return to your room at once.
Flayn	I am no child! I can hold my own in battle!
Seteth	Do as you are told. I cannot focus on the situation at hand with you here.
Catherine	Oh, will you fight alongside us, Seteth? It's not often that we see you in combat.
Seteth	Unfortunately, we are shorthanded at the moment, and even you two have your limits.
Flayn	I'm here too!
Seteth	Flayn! What are you still doing here? If you refuse to return to your room, then go hide...somewhere!
Anna	Everyone, hurry! The enemy is almost here!
Shamir	So it seems...
Catherine	We'll pay for it if we don't act quick. Seteth, we're going on ahead.
Seteth	No, I am coming as well. Flayn, we can talk about this later but for now, please be patient and wait here. OK?
Flayn	Hmph...

セテス	我々の力を役立てる時が来たか。 カトリーヌ、シャミア、この世界でも 存分に セイロス騎士団の力を示すといい。
カトリーヌ	ああ、誰が相手だろうと、 この剣で悔い改めさせてやるさ。 な、相棒？

セテス	フレン！ 危ないから、お前は部屋に戻っていなさい。
フレン	ま！　わたくし子供じゃありませんのよ？ 足手まといにはなりませんわ！
セテス	いいから、言うことを聞きなさい。 お前がいては、私も戦いに集中できない。
カトリーヌ	ほう、セテスも戦うのか？ 珍しいな。
セテス	今、動けるのは我々だけだ。 流石の君たちでも、相手をできる数には 限りがあ るだろう。
フレン	わたくしもいますわよ！
セテス	フレン！　まだいたのか。 お前は物陰にでも隠れて…
アンナ	あなたたち、急いで！ 敵はもう目前まで迫っているのよ！
シャミア	…だそうだ。
カトリーヌ	初動が遅れれば戦況に響く。 セテス、アタシらは先に行くぞ？

Anna	Whew! We managed to take out the enemy forces. Good work, everyone!
Seteth	I am glad we made it through without casualty. I do not know that we could have were it not for your forces.
Alfonse	No, I am sure you would have fared just as well without our assistance.
Sharena	That's right! Those two Knights were really strong! They certainly know how to work well together.
Catherine	I appreciate the recognition. Though, I probably could have handled the situation on my own...
Shamir	Ah, the terrible "Thunder Catherine." Made notorious by children playing soldier all across Fódlan.
Catherine	This rude, standoffish woman has no idea what she's talking about. But the truth is, I'd be lost without her. She's my irreplaceable partner. Having someone to watch your back allows you to face forward and fight.
Sharena	A partner in combat to watch your back... That's great! I'm jealous!
Catherine	It is a fortunate situation. I hope you can come across someone like that.
Sharena	I wonder if I can meet a partner... Of course I can! No doubt about it!
Shamir	Seteth, what ever happened to Flayn?
Seteth	Hm... I wonder... Probably Just off sulking somewhere.

Sharena	Hrm...
Flayn	Hmph...
Sharena	Ah...Flayn. Is something bothering you?
Flayn	Princess Sharena, you will listen to my concerns? I am in a bind with regard to my brother. We have allied ourselves with the Order of Heroes, and I am eager to help, but he will not allow me to fight.
Sharena	I think he's just worried about you, Flayn. I get the feeling my brother Alfonse doesn't have such concerns...
Flayn	The difference is that your sibling trusts you. By the way, are you OK? You've been fretting over something.
Sharena	I'm fine...just looking for my partner.
Flayn	Your partner? What kind of person are they?
Sharena	No, I—um... I'm still looking for one. I haven't had much luck.
Flayn	Oh, so that's what you mean. Very well then. I shall become your partner.
Sharena	Really? You will?
Flayn	Of course! My brother would stop worrying over me if I had a partner to trust. Then I would be—
Seteth	Hold on just a moment! It's imprudent to swear to be partners with someone from another world!
Flayn	Brother! Where did you...
Seteth	Partners are committed to helping each other on the battlefield. It's not sustainable with someone from afar!
Flayn	Then I can be her partner as long as I remain in this world, right?
Seteth	Do not quibble with me. You have no need for a partner, as you don't go on the battlefield.
Flayn	Hmph! Were we not called here because there is a need for us to fight?
Alfonse	Sharena...is something the matter? They seem to be arguing.
Sharena	I'm sorry... I think I'm to blame...

Anna	I'm sorry that Sharena's hunt for a combat partner caused so much trouble for you...
Seteth	No, no, it was no trouble at all.
Catherine	That's right, and Sharena isn't in the wrong. I'm the one who gave her the idea.
Sharena	What's wrong with that? I don't intend on giving up. I'll keep looking for my partner.
Flayn	I shan't give up either!
Catherine	But a good partner isn't something you can go off and search for. You meet without knowing it.
Shamir	And you probably won't know right away. Sometimes it turns out to be someone you would never consider.
Alfonse	I see... That must be what it was like when the two of you met.
Catherine	Exactly. Finding someone you can trust with your life isn't something to take lightly. You have to be patient.
Sharena	Aw, but...
Anna	The bond you share with Alfonse as siblings is almost like a partnership.
Sharena	What? You can't compare us to them. I just—I'll have to wait for fate to bring someone to me...
Anna	Well, what about your relationship with [Summoner]? Is that close enough? You two meeting was definitely up to fate.
Alfonse	I think you may be onto something there, Commander.
Sharena	I'm so gracious that we get to work together, but I would hardly call [Summoner] a partner!
Sharena	Hmmm... Until I can find a combat partner of my own, I suppose I'll just have to put up with my brother...
Alfonse	Put up with...?

Catherine	*pant*...*pant*... That's enough practice for today... So, are you just here to watch, or were you looking to spar?
Alfonse	No, no. Strictly observing. I've never seen someone with a style like yours. I thought I might learn something.
Catherine	I understand. You're a prince in this world, right? You probably shouldn't pick up any strange habits.
Alfonse	Would I be at risk of that?
Catherine	It's possible, but that wouldn't be all bad. In my opinion, at least. A sword-fighting style comprised of techniques from different disciplines could give you an advantage... But it would be difficult to hone. And you'd probably break more than a few good swords in the process.
Alfonse	Do you speak from experience, Catherine? Is it your own technique that you're describing?
Catherine	Well, what do you think? You've spent enough time watching me, so you must have some idea?
Alfonse	Let me think... Your skills are polished, like those of a noble. Also brusque, like a knight. But...there was something else...
Alfonse	I sensed a bit of recklessness. As though you would use any means necessary to fulfill your objective.
Catherine	Well now, you've got a sharp eye. Nice work. If I'm feeling up to it later, maybe I'll teach you a little more about my technique.

Alfonse	Phew... Thank you, Catherine.
Catherine	That was fun. You gave me a chance to see the way Askran royalty fights, so I should be thanking you.
Alfonse	It's nothing so extravagant. Merely a traditional style of swordsmanship passed down in our kingdom.
Catherine	I'm just happy to learn forms and techniques I've never seen. Like you said before, I'll take in any sword style if it helps me fulfill my objective.
Alfonse	Fulfill your objective... What sort of objective could that be? An objective you aim to fulfill no mater the means... Is it in the name of protection?
Catherine	It could be protection...or vengeance.
Alfonse	Vengeance...
Catherine	Hahaha. I'm just joking with you! Can't beat those sharp eyes or sharp wit of yours. Your first idea was correct, there's something I want to protect, no matter the cost. To be honest, it's the only reason I swing a sword at all anymore... It's part of who I am.
Alfonse	I'm not sure whether or not I should envy you. These kinds of things can be complicated... There is much I desire to protect. My kingdom, my family, and allies in both my world and those in others...
Catherine	That my be why your sword seems to hang so heavily.

Catherine	Prince Alfonse, I realized you told me about what you want to protect, but I hadn't told you about myself.
Alfonse	About what you want to protect, no matter what the cost? Might I ask...?
Catherine	Of course! I have nothing to hide. I serve to protect the Archbishop, Lady Rhea. At Garreg Mach, everyone puts their faith in the goddess. What supports that faith is the Church of Seiros, and Lady Rhea is the head of the church.
Alfonse	I see... It's someone in a very esteemed role then.
Catherine	Right. But I don't protect her because she's important. I do it because I love Lady Rhea from the bottom of heart. I owe her my life, and she's a leader who's saved countless others beside me. There are so many who revere and find peace in her. She always places others before herself! She may seem like a gentle leader, but she's deeply proficient in magic, and she's skilled with a blade! Knowing this about her, I don't understand why anyone wouldn't devote themselves to Lady Rhea!
Alfonse	W-what amazing passion you've shown. I'm overwhelmed myself just hearing you speak of her.
Alfonse	Hearing how much someone like you reveres her gives me a good idea of the kind of person she is. I, too, would like to someday become a person of her caliber.

Catherine	Prince Alfonse...what's wrong? You've got worry written all over your face.
Alfonse	Is it that bad? My apologies. There is much on my mind...
Catherine	I find that the best way to clear my mind is to swing a sword. Would you like to join me in training?
Alfonse	Hm...that may be a good idea.
Catherine	Do you remember what I said about your sword weighing heavily when we spoke before?
Alfonse	Yes, I meant to ask your meaning in that, but it slipped my mind.
Catherine	I think you might be carrying a bit too much on your shoulders for one person. My sword protects a single individual, but by protecting that one person, I'm protecting others as well. I have a partner who watches my back, and it's thanks to her that I can focus my efforts on Lady Rhea. In a way, it creates a chain of protection that leads to everything being protected.
Alfonse	A chain of protection... Everyone protecting someone else, and being protected in turn...
Catherine	Sorry, didn't mean to lecture you. I'm not generally one to do that—I just get carried away sometimes. But do you have someone like that? A partner to watch your back? If you do, don't take them for granted.
Alfonse	Well, there's [Summoner], but I don't know that—
Catherine	Hah! On your guard now, Prince. I am the goddess's servant. You will taste my blade!

Flayn	Oh, hello. It is good to see you again. Might you...have a moment to speak? I am truly grateful to be able to meet all of you. It feels wonderful to say I am serving as an operative of the special forces corps, the Order of Heroes. ...Oh, is it just Hero? Not operative? I see... Well, as wonderful as orders and heroes are, I do so adore the thought of being a special-forces operative! Your allies have introduced many new turns of phrase. I've never heard the word "operation" used that way... Nor had I ever heard the word "operative," of course. And the term "special forces" is also evocative itself. And together, they are sublime indeed! Special-forces operative, special-forces operative... Hee hee... I shall not tire of these magic words any time soon, I assure you. Now then, shall we set out for our next operation? Expect great thing from Operative Flayn of the special-forces division Order of Heroes!

Flayn	Oh my, there you are, the summoner of legend... So good to see you! Previously, I was unaware that you were such a prominent figure amongst the Order of Heroes. But now, I must say, your title of legendary summoner does leave something to be desired. I am simply unable to abide your lack of honorifics, so...I will choose one of my own to use with you. Order of Heroes Special-Forces Operative [Summoner]! See! That is much more impressive, do you not agree? But I think I might have thought of something better... Commander! It's obviously a higher rank than an operative—and it has a certain stately aspect to it! I would like that title myself one day... Commander Flayn, Order of Heroes! But all this is just a fantasy, as I will surely never hold that position while Commander Anna keeps her post... Ah, apologies for turning gloomy... It is just that impossible dreams are so truly heartbreaking...

Flayn	Oh, it is wonderful to see you again, Operative [Summoner]. Do you have a moment to speak? I had a truly wonderful thought. I was thinking more about wanting a title like commander, and... As long as Commander Anna is the commander of the Order of Heroes, I cannot be a commander, for one... Beyond that, Askr has so many other incredible Heroes, and Prince Alfonse and Princess Sharena besides... My status as operative is only a temporary one... In light of that, there is but one option left for me to take... Perhaps you have already figured it out? I ought to establish my own special group to carry out secret operations! Luckily, there does not appear to be any special-forces group or any sort of operatives anywhere in Fódlan. It is a great opportunity! I believe Commander Anna would be proud. I will soon announce its creation, and that will be that. Established! As for the name... What would suit it best? I know! We will adorn it with your name, the name of the legendary summoner! Which means it is... Special Forces and Operations Corps, Order of [Summoner]! ...How does that sound? Oh, and the first commander will be me, Commander Flayn! This is beginning to sound like such fun...

Flayn	*sigh* Oh, lovely to see you, [Summoner]. Might we speak a moment? It is regarding my plan to create the special-forces group in Fódlan... It seems there is something of a snag... You see, I've invited some students from the Officers Academy, but they do not seem the least bit interested. A commander is only a commander if she has operatives under her command, so...you see my problem. If only I had a summoner like you as one of my operatives, we could bring in more new operatives in no time. Oh! There's an idea! If you join as one of my operatives, everything will be solved! I will need someone I can entrust with battlefield command as well... So what do you think? If you are not happy as an operative, perhaps I could make you, oh... vice commander? Yes! It is settled! Now, join me, and fight by my side! ...Hm? Oh, WHO we fight is— Well, special operatives ought to combat foes of an otherworldly nature... But it could well be that such foes will never come to Fódlan. Then we will fight to protect OTHER worlds from— Oh, we need the power to open gateways to other worlds? Hrrmmm... It seems that, in the end, impossible dreams are indeed heartbreaking after all...

Shamir	No. I've been here the whole time. Leaning against that pillar.
Sharena	But... how can that be? Didn't I pass right by that pillar several times?
Shamir	You did. And you were calling me name. I found it funny. Heh. *ahem* I apologize. I should have spoken sooner.
Sharena	You're right about that! It's strange though. I didn't get the sense that anyone was here at all...
Shamir	That's because my presence was masked and I was wary of my surroundings.
Sharena	Wary? Why would you feel that way...
Shamir	There are many people here I don't know. You call yourselves Heroes, but that could be in name only. I also heard there are enemies who can disguise themselves as anyone. It would be reckless not to be on guard.
Sharena	Hmm... That does complicate things, but I can assure you that we are all trustworthy individuals!
Sharena	I understand your vigilance, but I'd appreciate it if you could put a little more trust in us!

Shamir	Oh... Princess Sharena. What's this about?
Sharena	I asked you to put a little more trust in us the last time we spoke. The other Heroes have mentioned how much your attitude has softened. I was surprised...and impressed!
Sharena	We were worried because you came off as distant, and a little harsh. Now it seems you're totally comfortable! But...lately you've maybe been too comfortable. You've been...assertive and confrontational. I was hoping—
Shamir	Stop.
Sharena	Is something the matter?
Shamir	What do you mean by "lately"?
Sharena	I just mean that you've started acting differently around us recently...
Shamir	That's not possible. I've been away. Hold up in the mountains. My senses were growing dull, so I had to focus. I left shortly after we last spoke.
Sharena	What?! Are you serious?
Shamir	Of course. I just hung the skins I caught up to dry. I can show you, if you require proof?
Sharena	I'll admit I am curious, but now isn't the time! This can only mean that an impostor has infiltrated the castle! We've got a problem on our hands!

Shamir	And your evidence?
Sharena	My intuition!
Shamir	Intuition, huh?
Sharena	What's wrong? Don't trust intuition? Throughout my life, I've shared the battlefield with countless Heroes. I've honed my ability to read people, so I'm sure I can trust my intuition.
Shamir	Hah. I trust intuition. It keeps you on the right path. Like a gut feeling, or animal instinct. I've been saved by it many times. Intuition keeps you going.
Sharena	I understand what you mean. Still, you sem so confident in your skills and experience... I didn't expect you to rely on anything else.
Shamir	I've been fighting since I was a child. Without instinct, you don't survive. Simple as that.

Seteth	If I may, Commander Anna, while you are here... There's something I've been meaning ask you.
Anna	What is it?
Seteth	Do you have a sister? You remind me of someone...
Anna	Let me guess. There's an Anna in your world, and she looks like me. Is that it? She's a merchant, or something like that, anyway, and she's always dreaming up ways to make money...
Seteth	Just so. I suppose that confirms that there is a family connection there.
Anna	I'll leave that to your imagination. I just have one thing to say... You might say we look the same, but all of us are different people. There are many who only care about profits, but as for me... Of course I care about money. But what I care most about is the Order of Heroes and its mission.
Seteth	I see. I will not forget it.

Anna	Still writing, Seteth?
Seteth	Idleness is wastefulness. At the least, I am not one who can simply spend time relaxing.
Anna	Why not find a hobby? Though now that I mention it, seems like you already have: writing.
Seteth	I do fish from time to time, but... Yes, I believe that writing is my hobby.
Anna	What are you writing? If it's not for the Officers Academy, is it a treatise on religion?
Seteth	That is hardly a hobby! No, I am writing a fable.
Anna	A fable? Like a story for children?
Seteth	Indeed. I used to read them to my sister long ago. They came to mind, and I became compelled to write... My sister may be grown, but many children dwell at the monastery. I shall have them read this story.
Anna	That's a surprise, but a wonderful one! Can I read it too?
Seteth	This fable is for children. I am not sure it would interest an adult.
Anna	Don't concern yourself with that! I'm just curious to see what you're writing.
Seteth	Very well. Perhaps you can offer critique that would be of aid.
Anna	Leave it to me! I'll get started right away.

Seteth	Commander Anna. Have you read the fable I gave you?
Anna	Of course. I finished it a while ago, actually.
Seteth	I had asked for your thoughts on it. Why did you not come to me?
Anna	Because I wasn't ready yet... I was doing some calculations.
Seteth	Calculations?
Anna	Cost estimates. What it would cost to print your wiring and distribute it in other worlds... Because it would sell!
Anna	You called it your hobby, so I wasn't expecting something this fine! Your writing is so wise, and deeply moral.
Seteth	While it makes me happy to hear that you feel that way, I never intended to sell any stories...
Anna	You shouldn't hide your work! This deserves to reach more children.
Anna	There's just one problem...
Seteth	I suppose I must ask. What is it?
Anna	When you consider all of the costs of publication, the most efficient path forward would be a single book. But judging from the first fable you gave me, I'd need you to provide a total of 10 stories for the volume.
Seteth	The writing isn't the issue. Selling these stories, however... I am unsure. I write for the needy.
Anna	Don't let that concern you! Every world has schools and orphanages... and wealthy donors. Leave it to me!

Anna	Seteth! The book's a hit! You wouldn't believe how fast it's selling.
Seteth	I see... And are the less fortunate receiving the books as well?
Anna	Of course. Its popularity keeps growing. Someone just bought 10 copies. Those books were bought just to be donated to the needy. Everything's going just as you hoped.
Seteth	Then my writing this book had a point. But what of the profits?
Anna	They're secure in my vault. But about the split... How does 40-60 sound? The 40 percent is for me, of course.
Seteth	Well...
Anna	No good? Please remember that I worked hard on this project too. How about 30-70?
Seteth	Well...
Anna	Hmmm. I'm not trying to fleece you. I'd just like to put a dent in the Order of Heroes' chronic budget deficit!
Seteth	Thanks to you, my work has reached children across many worlds...and I believe a 20-80 split is acceptable. Now that that's settled, please donate my portion of the profits to the needy children of Askr.
Anna	Uh, well... Now I feel bad accepting ANY percent of the profits! Let's just donate everything to the poor kids.
Seteth	So you DO have a kind heart, even as you seek profit... Yes, you do resemble the Anna I know.
Anna	That may be true, but what I wanted was to see your work read far and wide. Earning a profit was a bonus.
Seteth	I understand that now. Well, use your share as you see fit. And when I write again, I will leave it in your hands.
Anna	Wow! Seriously? Thank you, Seteth! Here's to making publishing history!
