"Anthiese, you made me a promise, remember? You promised not to throw your life away again." - Conrad "I'm sorry, Conrad. I'm sorry, everyone. Please forgive me… I can't tell you how much it means to me that we've come so far together." - Celica "Anthiese!"

"Ladies, am I right? They just looove to get the last word in. … When I found out all women share that trait, my poor heart sank. …Eh? How can I be so sure it's ALL women? How can you even ask that?! I've been to a town! I've seen, like, a dozen women! Hell, maybe more!" - Gray

Battle 3 (Mid-Boss)

"Still, I don't see why the wind here's gotta be so damned cold." - Gray "Is it really that bad?" - Alm "You're not freezing your tenders off? I'm impressed." "It's not that it doesn't feel cold. It's more like…I know this feeling. Like the air here's familiar."

"Stop it, Clive. You're no craven." - Alm "Aren't I? … I criticized you roundly for diverting our army to save one person. But you did it anyway because you have something I do not—strength of heart. You understand what is precious and fight for it no matter the cost." - Clive

March

"On that day, I will have to aid you in striking down Emperor Rudolf. I know it to be his wish, yet still I wonder if that makes us in the right. The emperor was convinced you would be the one to save Valentia. … I believe in you, Alm. Know that, if nothing else." - Zeke

"Alm… I've dreamt of you for so long. Dreamt I might see you again. But please… not like this. The leader of the Deliverance? I pray this is some horrible mistake. Still, I'll only know for sure once I see for myself." - Celica

Praise This Despair!

"Only one truth is clear: War will come again … raging until the very earth itself lies scorched and bare of life. For whatever madness lay in the hearts of gods… a darkness deeper still beats wild in the hearts of man…" - Narrator

"In my travels, I have witnessed the sorry state of our kingdom. With no goddess to bless them and no king to rule, most Zofians are at a loss. And I, for one, refuse to stand by and watch them suffer. I would ask for permission to accompany you on your quest." - Silque

"Forsyth is all drive and emotion, while Python… Well, Python hardly seems to care about much of anything. Both are fine soldiers in their own ways, but neither is a great advisor." - Clive "Well, don't tell Forsyth. He'd crawl into his bed and never come out again." - Lukas

Courage in Numbers

"You always were braver than me. I remember when we were children and those knaves cornered us in the woods. You came to our rescue like a knight in shining armor. Ha ha. Look at you! You're blushing! But it's true. You've always been my knight, you know? Then and now." - Faye
