:Hi there!&lt;br /&gt;
:Did you have a good day?&lt;br /&gt;
:I'm pretty sure I got a little taller today...&lt;br /&gt;
:I have to try my best, even when I'm alone.&lt;br /&gt;
:I wonder what's for dinner?&lt;br /&gt;
:I don't need anybody to tuck me in. Sheesh!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
;Home Screen Inside&lt;br /&gt;
:I'm working hard so I can grow up to be big and strong and cool!&lt;br /&gt;
:It's just me and my big sister—we don't have any other family. But I never feel lonely!&lt;br /&gt;
:My dream is to grow up big and strong so I can take a turn protecting my sister for once.&lt;br /&gt;
:I don't like fighting, but if I have to do it to protect the people I care about, then I will.&lt;br /&gt;
:Louise taught me how to study and be polite. I'm proud to have her as a big sister.&lt;br /&gt;
:There are so many cool people in this castle— I wanna learn to be just like them!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
;Home Screen Portrait&lt;br /&gt;
:My sister made these clothes for me! Pretty cool, huh?&lt;br /&gt;
:Huh. Do I seem taller than yesterday? I think I do!&lt;br /&gt;
:I'm going to grow to be way bigger someday! Just you wait!&lt;br /&gt;
:This is nothing like my boring life in the village. Every day is an adventure!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
;Collection Portrait&lt;br /&gt;
:I wanna be strong enough to protect my sister and my friends!&lt;br /&gt;
:Sure, I'm small now, but I'm gonna grow up. Eventually!&lt;br /&gt;
:I don't wanna be cute. I wanna be cool!&lt;br /&gt;
:I want Louise to see how much I've grown!&lt;br /&gt;
:I promise to fight side-by-side with you all, now and forever!&lt;br /&gt;
:It's okay to be selfish today, so hand over the treats before I trick you!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
;At The Halidom&lt;br /&gt;
:I'm having tons of fun!&lt;br /&gt;
:I wonder what kinds of adventures await us?&lt;br /&gt;
:I just wanna be helpful!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
;On Promotion to {{5*}}&lt;br /&gt;
:I worked really hard to get here. But I'm just getting started!&lt;br /&gt;

|episode1Title=I'm Not Little Anymore!&lt;br /&gt;
|episode1Content=&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt; ''Lowen and Louise, brother and sister of the wind, are the latest to join the ranks of the Halidom.'' &amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Louise}} Time to get changed, Lowen. I stayed up all night sewing you these new clothes. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Um, okay. Thanks. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;'' Lowen's older sister had always done her best to raise him with care. And yet... ''&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Louise}} We're going to be living separately from now on, but I still want you to keep a good head on your shoulders, okay? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Don't worry, Sis. I'll be a total adult, and I'll do it for you! &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;'' The decision has been made for Lowen to live an independent life separate from his sister. However... ''&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Lowen, I've folded your laundry for you. I'll just put it here. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} You did my laundry again? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} It's quite all right—I was already doing the rest of the wash anyway. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Er, but doesn't everyone else help out with the chores around here? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I suppose the proper adults do, yes. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Then I should too! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Heh. There's no need to worry about it. Ah, I just remembered that today's afternoon snack is apple pie. You like pie, yes? When you're ready, wash your hands and come to the dining hall. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Um...thanks? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Lucaaa! ...He's not here either?! Honestly, where HAS he run off to? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Luca? He went to the woods, I think. Do you need something? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} I TOLD him we were going out to cull fiends today! We don't have enough people without him. Just what are we supposed to do now? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Oh! Oh! Let me come! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Er...you? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Is that a no? It sounds like a no. You don't think I'm strong enough, huh? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Perish the thought, Lowen. I'm merely worried, is all. You're still so young and cute, and... Ahem! Yes, well, there's no need for you to rush onto the battlefield. Please wait in the castle. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} ...... Ugh. What's even the point of me having separated from my sister? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Everything okay, Lowen? You look down. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Everyone keeps treating me like their baby brother, and I'm sick of it! I started living in a separate room from my sister because I wanted to get away from all that, but nothing's changed! I'm never gonna be able to become an adult like this. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Hmm. I see. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Take it easy, kid, yeah? Bein' an adult ain't nothin' ya wanna rush into—trust the old man on this one. Yer gonna be grown up before ya know it— and probably before ya want to, if I'm bein' totally honest. So for now, just kick back and enjoy lettin' everybody spoil ya. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} No! I want to change! I want to become an adult that my sister and everyone else can rely on! And I want to help protect people the way everyone else does. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} That's a fine goal. And if you're set on it, we'll be happy to support you. If there's something you need, just say the word, okay? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Hey, really? Thanks! Just you wait—I'm gonna be the best adult who ever adulted! &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|episode2Title=Who I Want to Become&lt;br /&gt;
|episode2Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Ranzal}} Hey, Lowen! I wanna bend yer ear a sec about all that growin' up business. What kinda adult do ya even wanna be? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Hmm... That's a good question. Well, I guess I wanna be able to do everything myself. Oh, but still be nice. And strong! And big. Oh, and— &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Hold up a tick, kid. Ya wanna be ripped? Then yer talkin' to the right guy! I'll let ya in on a secret method I keep in the back'a my head for just this kinda thing. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} A...secret method? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Ka-pow! Feast yer eyeballs on this here table! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Whoooa... Soooo much foooood... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Um, Ranzal? Please tell me you're not going to eat all of that. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Not just me—the kid's gonna help pack all this away! Ya wanna be big and strong like Ranzal, yeah? WHO WANTS THAT?! WHO WANTS TO BE BIG AND STRONG?! YOU DO! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} W-well, yeah, but...this is a lot of food. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} *sigh* Don't listen to him, Lowen. He just wants an excuse to stuff his face like he always does. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Hey, that ain't even remotely true! I'm looking out for the kid here. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Well, SOMEONE needs to eat this before it gets cold. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} C'mon, kid! Today...we FEAST! All right, food! I got a nice bit of stomach real estate with your name on it! *chomp* *horf* *slarrrfffp* &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Holy cow! I've never SEEN someone eat so fast. It's almost hypnotic... Er, I mean, I better start eating, and fast! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Lowen? I just want to point out that there are many large, fit adults in the world aside from Ranzal. You don't necessarily have to go about bulking up in the same way he does. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Indeed, who's to say that such a physique is even appropriate for you? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} But Ranzal's an adult, and he's REALLY strong! He's everything I'm not, you know? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} If you ask me, you possess any number of fine qualities that Ranzal lacks. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} She's right. True adults grow by building on their own strengths, not by pushing themselves to be something they aren't. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Yeah, but I dunno what my own strengths even ARE. But I do know I wanna be able to do anything—and also be super ripped just like Ranzal. So now I'm gonna EAT like he does, too! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Well, if you've made up your mind, I won't stop you. Oh and there's plenty more where that came from, so have all you like. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Thanks, Cleo! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Zzzzzz... Sandwiches... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Get up, you massive sack of suet! We have cleaning to do. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} C'mon, Ranzal! It's gonna be a pain for everyone else if you just eat and pass out like that! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Zzzzz... Honey-baked ham... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Um...Ranzal? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Lowen? I want you to promise me that you won't grow into an adult like...him. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Oh man. Ranzal seems really cool, but I guess he's also kinda uncool in some ways, huh? I'm gonna have to think a little more about what strengths I really want to have. Zzzz... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Ha ha! Did Ranzal really get Lowen to eat until he passed out? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Indeed—though he at least kept it together long enough to help with the cleaning. He even took on Ranzal's share of the work, so I imagine he's exhausted. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} He may be young, but he has quite the head on his shoulders. And compared to THIS one... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Zzzzzz... Gravy boats... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} *sigh* How can two sleeping faces look so  different from each other? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Unlike Ranzal, being adorable is certainly one of Lowen's strengths. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I think I can appreciate how Louise feels about him. Eat lots, sleep more, see the world, and learn at every step. Grow big and strong, Lowen. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Zzzz... &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|episode3Title=Admiration&lt;br /&gt;
|episode3Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Lowen}} What do you think of THIS?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} You've gotten really good, Lowen. I'm impressed. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} It's all thanks to your training. I'm strong enough to take on any enemies that come my way now! I'm not afraid of anything anymore. Not afraid...of anything... Oh man, I've gotta go to the bathroom. And I've come this far, but... Aaaugh! I can't do this on my own! Wait, no... I'm strong now! You can do this, Lowen. You can do this! Okay, here I go! Uh oh. Where's this? Am I...lost? AAAUUGH! Wait, no. That's just the wind. Stupid wind! That's not nice! Wait, footsteps? At this hour? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} Must...feed... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Wh-what was that voice?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} Muuust...feeeeed! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} I sure hope that isn't talking about me... Okay, this is all super weird, but I don't have a choice... I have to fight! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} GWAAAAAH! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} AAAAAAAAAAAGH! Wait. RANZAL? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} So...hungry... Must...feed... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Oh my gosh. He's SLEEPWALKING. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Haaaaaam... Piiiiiie... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Okay, he's gone now. Boy, I sure hope he doesn't catch a cold. He gave me a heck of a shock, though. Glad he wasn't some kind of monster. ...Huh? I can hear footsteps again. Is that you, Ranzal? Wait, that's not Ranzal. But then, who IS it? A fiend? A ghost? How should I attack it? ...H-hey! You! Stop right there! Eeeek! I can't take it any moooore! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Er, Lowen? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Euden?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Yes, it's me. I heard someone yelling out here and came to see what was going on. What're you doing out here at this hour? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Ummmmm... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Were you scared of something? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} I...um...had to use the bathroom. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Uh oh. Did you get lost? You know what? Never mind. Let me just take you there right now. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Thank you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} You're welcome. Honestly, I'm glad I made it in time. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Yeah. But still, I can't believe I couldn't even go to the bathroom by myself... I thought I was stronger, but I'm still just as weak as ever. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} That's not true at all, Lowen. You're absolutely getting stronger. But strength comes in many forms. Such as the strength to fight, or the strength to not give in to our fears. And I think it's good for a person to learn many different strengths. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Is that what you did? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} You bet. No one just starts out not being afraid of anything, after all. So you should just work hard and get stronger a little bit at a time. If you do that, the number of things that frighten you will decrease, and you'll be able to protect the people you love. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} You know what? You can leave me here. I think I'm gonna be fine. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} I'm off, then. Have a good night, Lowen. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} You too! Oh man, he's SOOO cool! I wanna be like him someday. I'm gonna work even harder to not just be the little brother anymore! &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|episode4Title=Growing Pains&lt;br /&gt;
|episode4Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Lowen}} Hooo boy! I'm really tired. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} You trained pretty hard today, Lowen. Make sure to wipe off all your sweat so you don't catch cold. Now then, are you hungry? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Now that you mention it, I might be a little hungry—but I think I'd like to try and make something myself. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} No, don't trouble yourself. Stay here and I'll whip something up. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} (It's happening slowly, but everyone is starting to rely on me more—except for Cleo, that is. At this rate, I'll never get her to stop treating me like a baby brother. I have to get her to recognize that I've grown, but how do I DO that?) &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Aha! Cleo! Cleeeo! Did you already start making the food? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I was just about to get started. Is something the matter? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} No! I just need you to let me take care of it. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} But... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Take a load off, Cleo! Rest those dogs! I've got lunch handled today. Come oooon! You gotta trust me with this stuff sometime! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} V-very well. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} All right! Lemme start by whipping up some soup. I think I remember Louise's recipe pretty well... So I cut the potatoes liiiike...this, right? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Curl your fingers! CURL YOUR FINGERS! You'll lop them off otherwise! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Right! Curled fingers, okay. Now then, everything is diced up, so we throw the veggies into the boiling water. Oh man, that water's hot! And there's steam everywhere. Maybe I'll just stand way back here and toss the veggies into— &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} You will most certainly NOT do that! The boiling water could splash out and scald the flesh right off your bones! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} I, uh, don't know if it's THAT hot, but sure. Lemme just drop them in real gently... Yeowch! Hot! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Be careful, for the love of the goddess!&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} (He's going to kill himself right in my own kitchen. Someone save me...) &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Ta-daaah! Soup's up! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} You finished, but... Urgh... I feel dizzy... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Are you okay, Cleo? You look completely exhausted! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I think...I may have worried about you overmuch... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Oh. I'm sorry. This is all my fault. I just wanted to help you out, Cleo. Then you could see how much I've grown and maybe you'd— &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I know, Lowen. It's all right. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} But I made you totally exhausted because I was so wrapped up in myself. I'm really sorry. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Come now, chin up. Accepting the ways in which we might be wanting is all part of maturing. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Heh. I guess I'm still pretty uncool, huh? I thought I had everything figured out, but I just ended up making trouble for you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Even grown-ups have their flaws, Lowen. We make unsound decisions, panic, and let our emotions get the best of us. We're often more like children than children in that respect. But the difference is that we recognize our mistakes and fight through them. Becoming an adult doesn't mean that your problems all suddenly disappear. Still, I imagine none of this will dissuade you from attempting to grow up as fast as you possibly can. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Not really, no. I wanna become a strong adult who can protect the people that are important to him. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Heh. But you're plenty strong enough already, Lowen. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Er, but weren't you just super worried about how I'd kill myself while making a pot of soup? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} You're able to pursue your aspirations with genuine fervor. And that comes from your own strength. Nothing else. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} So I have strength even though I'm still growing up? Hmm... Hey, Cleo? Do you think it's possible to be an adult AND a little brother? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} The only person who can answer that question is you, Lowen. But before we continue this conversation, let's try your soup. I'm simply famished. Oh, and now that you've proven yourself in my kitchen, I'll be assigning you meal prep duties. I assume you're all right with this arrangement? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Of course! Er, but there might still be SOME things I can't do. But I know you'll teach me how to do 'em when the time comes, right, Cleo?! &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|episode5Title=Always a Little Brother&lt;br /&gt;
|episode5Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Lowen}} So I think I have to leave the Halidom for a bit, Prince Euden. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Oh? Where are you headed? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} I'm going to visit my mother's grave. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} I see. Is Louise coming? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} No. We used to go together every year, but I decided to go on my own this time. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Hmm. I imagine you might run into fiends on the way. How about I come with you? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Can you let me go on my own? Please? Louise said it was okay and everything! It's a great chance for me to see if my training has been paying off. Don't worry! I'll be back home safe and sound before anyone even knows I'm gone. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Well, if you're decided, I won't stop you. Be safe, Lowen. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} I will! Byeeee! Oh man, I don't feel like things took quite this long when I came here with Louise. I think I'm lost—and that isn't good at ALL. Maybe I should go back... Wait, no! I can't! I have to get stronger! The prince would never turn back! Think, Lowen! Okay, at a time like this, Ranzal would tell a really funny joke or something to lighten the mood. AAAUGH! Those bushes MOOOOVED! Wh-who's there?! ...Oh, it's just a little bird. Aw, it's hurt! I don't think it can fly right now. But if it stays here, some fiend is gonna find it and eat it for a snack! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} GRRRR! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Eek! Th-that was... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} RRRRAAAAAARRRGH! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} (It's a fiend! And man, is it ever BIG... I can still get away if I go now, but I'd have to leave that little bird behind. Louise never ran away when she had to protect me. No matter how badly she was hurt, she always stuck it out. And if I want to become an adult who can protect people like she did... I don't have a choice!) &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Hey, you stupid fiend! If you're gonna fight someone, have a piece of ME! I'm way braver than you—my sister taught me that! And the prince taught me how to fight! I'm strong now, and I'm not gonna lose. SO COME AT ME, BRO! YAAAAAAAH! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Fiend}} GRAAAAAAAGH! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I'm worried about Lowen—I do hope that he's all right. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} It's only been three days since he set off, yeah? Ain't no reason to panic yet. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Three days is already far longer than such a trip should take. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} I TOLD ya, yer worrying too much! Have a little faith in the kid already. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} I agree. We need to believe in Lowen. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Hey, everybody! I'm baaaack! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Lowen! You're all right! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} We were so worried about you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Heh. I figured as much. But hey, I did it, right?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} That's very admirable of you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Thanks! Oh, and I also realized something on this trip. Until now, I thought that if I was still a little brother, I couldn't be an adult. But I was wrong. Even if I separate from my sister and become independent, it won't change the fact I'm her little bro. In fact, that's the whole reason I want to be strong in the first place! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} That's very wise of you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} I guess even little brothers can get strong, huh? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} They certainly can. And furthermore, you and Louise have an exceptionally powerful bond. That bond drives both of you to be the best people you can be. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Hey, that's right! ...Although I didn't do this ALL just for her. I did it for you guys as well, because you've all helped me out so much. Even though we were apart, we were still connected. I was never really alone. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} That is a fascinating way to look at it. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} I think I understand. I've often had times where the face of someone I care about has come to me in a time of crisis. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Oh man, this kid is blowin' my MIND right now. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Hee hee! Yeah, but I still have a long way to go. So I'm gonna bust my butt to become an even cooler adult! Er, along with all of you, of course. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} That sounds like a plan. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Oh, by the way, I brought back some meat from my trip. How about I try cooking it up into something we can all enjoy? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Are you certain that's a good idea? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} You're the one who taught me how to do kitchen stuff, Cleo. Believe in your student! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} A jest only, I assure you. I can't wait to try whatever you make. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Then get ready, because I'm gonna be the best at cooking and housework AND fighting! I'm gonna grow in a ton of ways and be the little brother everyone can count on! &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt; ''Lowen and Louise, brother and sister of the wind, are the latest to join the ranks of the Halidom.'' &amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Louise}} Time to get changed, Lowen. I stayed up all night sewing you these new clothes. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Um, okay. Thanks. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;'' Lowen's older sister had always done her best to raise him with care. And yet... ''&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Louise}} We're going to be living separately from now on, but I still want you to keep a good head on your shoulders, okay? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Don't worry, Sis. I'll be a total adult, and I'll do it for you! &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;'' The decision has been made for Lowen to live an independent life separate from his sister. However... ''&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Lowen, I've folded your laundry for you. I'll just put it here. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} You did my laundry again? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} It's quite all right—I was already doing the rest of the wash anyway. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Er, but doesn't everyone else help out with the chores around here? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I suppose the proper adults do, yes. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Then I should too! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Heh. There's no need to worry about it. Ah, I just remembered that today's afternoon snack is apple pie. You like pie, yes? When you're ready, wash your hands and come to the dining hall. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Um...thanks? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Lucaaa! ...He's not here either?! Honestly, where HAS he run off to? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Luca? He went to the woods, I think. Do you need something? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} I TOLD him we were going out to cull fiends today! We don't have enough people without him. Just what are we supposed to do now? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Oh! Oh! Let me come! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Er...you? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Is that a no? It sounds like a no. You don't think I'm strong enough, huh? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Perish the thought, Lowen. I'm merely worried, is all. You're still so young and cute, and... Ahem! Yes, well, there's no need for you to rush onto the battlefield. Please wait in the castle. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} ...... Ugh. What's even the point of me having separated from my sister? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Everything okay, Lowen? You look down. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Everyone keeps treating me like their baby brother, and I'm sick of it! I started living in a separate room from my sister because I wanted to get away from all that, but nothing's changed! I'm never gonna be able to become an adult like this. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Hmm. I see. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Take it easy, kid, yeah? Bein' an adult ain't nothin' ya wanna rush into—trust the old man on this one. Yer gonna be grown up before ya know it— and probably before ya want to, if I'm bein' totally honest. So for now, just kick back and enjoy lettin' everybody spoil ya. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} No! I want to change! I want to become an adult that my sister and everyone else can rely on! And I want to help protect people the way everyone else does. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} That's a fine goal. And if you're set on it, we'll be happy to support you. If there's something you need, just say the word, okay? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Hey, really? Thanks! Just you wait—I'm gonna be the best adult who ever adulted! &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|episode2Title=Who I Want to Become&lt;br /&gt;
|episode2Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Ranzal}} Hey, Lowen! I wanna bend yer ear a sec about all that growin' up business. What kinda adult do ya even wanna be? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Hmm... That's a good question. Well, I guess I wanna be able to do everything myself. Oh, but still be nice. And strong! And big. Oh, and— &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Hold up a tick, kid. Ya wanna be ripped? Then yer talkin' to the right guy! I'll let ya in on a secret method I keep in the back'a my head for just this kinda thing. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} A...secret method? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Ka-pow! Feast yer eyeballs on this here table! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Whoooa... Soooo much foooood... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Um, Ranzal? Please tell me you're not going to eat all of that. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Not just me—the kid's gonna help pack all this away! Ya wanna be big and strong like Ranzal, yeah? WHO WANTS THAT?! WHO WANTS TO BE BIG AND STRONG?! YOU DO! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} W-well, yeah, but...this is a lot of food. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} *sigh* Don't listen to him, Lowen. He just wants an excuse to stuff his face like he always does. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Hey, that ain't even remotely true! I'm looking out for the kid here. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Well, SOMEONE needs to eat this before it gets cold. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} C'mon, kid! Today...we FEAST! All right, food! I got a nice bit of stomach real estate with your name on it! *chomp* *horf* *slarrrfffp* &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Holy cow! I've never SEEN someone eat so fast. It's almost hypnotic... Er, I mean, I better start eating, and fast! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Lowen? I just want to point out that there are many large, fit adults in the world aside from Ranzal. You don't necessarily have to go about bulking up in the same way he does. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Indeed, who's to say that such a physique is even appropriate for you? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} But Ranzal's an adult, and he's REALLY strong! He's everything I'm not, you know? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} If you ask me, you possess any number of fine qualities that Ranzal lacks. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} She's right. True adults grow by building on their own strengths, not by pushing themselves to be something they aren't. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Yeah, but I dunno what my own strengths even ARE. But I do know I wanna be able to do anything—and also be super ripped just like Ranzal. So now I'm gonna EAT like he does, too! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Well, if you've made up your mind, I won't stop you. Oh and there's plenty more where that came from, so have all you like. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Thanks, Cleo! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Zzzzzz... Sandwiches... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Get up, you massive sack of suet! We have cleaning to do. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} C'mon, Ranzal! It's gonna be a pain for everyone else if you just eat and pass out like that! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Zzzzz... Honey-baked ham... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Um...Ranzal? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Lowen? I want you to promise me that you won't grow into an adult like...him. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Oh man. Ranzal seems really cool, but I guess he's also kinda uncool in some ways, huh? I'm gonna have to think a little more about what strengths I really want to have. Zzzz... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Ha ha! Did Ranzal really get Lowen to eat until he passed out? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Indeed—though he at least kept it together long enough to help with the cleaning. He even took on Ranzal's share of the work, so I imagine he's exhausted. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} He may be young, but he has quite the head on his shoulders. And compared to THIS one... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Zzzzzz... Gravy boats... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} *sigh* How can two sleeping faces look so  different from each other? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Unlike Ranzal, being adorable is certainly one of Lowen's strengths. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I think I can appreciate how Louise feels about him. Eat lots, sleep more, see the world, and learn at every step. Grow big and strong, Lowen. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Zzzz... &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|episode3Title=Admiration&lt;br /&gt;
|episode3Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Lowen}} What do you think of THIS?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} You've gotten really good, Lowen. I'm impressed. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} It's all thanks to your training. I'm strong enough to take on any enemies that come my way now! I'm not afraid of anything anymore. Not afraid...of anything... Oh man, I've gotta go to the bathroom. And I've come this far, but... Aaaugh! I can't do this on my own! Wait, no... I'm strong now! You can do this, Lowen. You can do this! Okay, here I go! Uh oh. Where's this? Am I...lost? AAAUUGH! Wait, no. That's just the wind. Stupid wind! That's not nice! Wait, footsteps? At this hour? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} Must...feed... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Wh-what was that voice?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} Muuust...feeeeed! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} I sure hope that isn't talking about me... Okay, this is all super weird, but I don't have a choice... I have to fight! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} GWAAAAAH! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} AAAAAAAAAAAGH! Wait. RANZAL? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} So...hungry... Must...feed... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Oh my gosh. He's SLEEPWALKING. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Haaaaaam... Piiiiiie... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Okay, he's gone now. Boy, I sure hope he doesn't catch a cold. He gave me a heck of a shock, though. Glad he wasn't some kind of monster. ...Huh? I can hear footsteps again. Is that you, Ranzal? Wait, that's not Ranzal. But then, who IS it? A fiend? A ghost? How should I attack it? ...H-hey! You! Stop right there! Eeeek! I can't take it any moooore! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Er, Lowen? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Euden?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Yes, it's me. I heard someone yelling out here and came to see what was going on. What're you doing out here at this hour? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Ummmmm... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Were you scared of something? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} I...um...had to use the bathroom. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Uh oh. Did you get lost? You know what? Never mind. Let me just take you there right now. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Thank you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} You're welcome. Honestly, I'm glad I made it in time. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Yeah. But still, I can't believe I couldn't even go to the bathroom by myself... I thought I was stronger, but I'm still just as weak as ever. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} That's not true at all, Lowen. You're absolutely getting stronger. But strength comes in many forms. Such as the strength to fight, or the strength to not give in to our fears. And I think it's good for a person to learn many different strengths. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Is that what you did? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} You bet. No one just starts out not being afraid of anything, after all. So you should just work hard and get stronger a little bit at a time. If you do that, the number of things that frighten you will decrease, and you'll be able to protect the people you love. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} You know what? You can leave me here. I think I'm gonna be fine. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} I'm off, then. Have a good night, Lowen. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} You too! Oh man, he's SOOO cool! I wanna be like him someday. I'm gonna work even harder to not just be the little brother anymore! &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|episode4Title=Growing Pains&lt;br /&gt;
|episode4Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Lowen}} Hooo boy! I'm really tired. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} You trained pretty hard today, Lowen. Make sure to wipe off all your sweat so you don't catch cold. Now then, are you hungry? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Now that you mention it, I might be a little hungry—but I think I'd like to try and make something myself. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} No, don't trouble yourself. Stay here and I'll whip something up. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} (It's happening slowly, but everyone is starting to rely on me more—except for Cleo, that is. At this rate, I'll never get her to stop treating me like a baby brother. I have to get her to recognize that I've grown, but how do I DO that?) &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Aha! Cleo! Cleeeo! Did you already start making the food? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I was just about to get started. Is something the matter? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} No! I just need you to let me take care of it. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} But... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Take a load off, Cleo! Rest those dogs! I've got lunch handled today. Come oooon! You gotta trust me with this stuff sometime! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} V-very well. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} All right! Lemme start by whipping up some soup. I think I remember Louise's recipe pretty well... So I cut the potatoes liiiike...this, right? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Curl your fingers! CURL YOUR FINGERS! You'll lop them off otherwise! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Right! Curled fingers, okay. Now then, everything is diced up, so we throw the veggies into the boiling water. Oh man, that water's hot! And there's steam everywhere. Maybe I'll just stand way back here and toss the veggies into— &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} You will most certainly NOT do that! The boiling water could splash out and scald the flesh right off your bones! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} I, uh, don't know if it's THAT hot, but sure. Lemme just drop them in real gently... Yeowch! Hot! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Be careful, for the love of the goddess!&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} (He's going to kill himself right in my own kitchen. Someone save me...) &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Ta-daaah! Soup's up! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} You finished, but... Urgh... I feel dizzy... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Are you okay, Cleo? You look completely exhausted! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I think...I may have worried about you overmuch... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Oh. I'm sorry. This is all my fault. I just wanted to help you out, Cleo. Then you could see how much I've grown and maybe you'd— &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I know, Lowen. It's all right. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} But I made you totally exhausted because I was so wrapped up in myself. I'm really sorry. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Come now, chin up. Accepting the ways in which we might be wanting is all part of maturing. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Heh. I guess I'm still pretty uncool, huh? I thought I had everything figured out, but I just ended up making trouble for you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Even grown-ups have their flaws, Lowen. We make unsound decisions, panic, and let our emotions get the best of us. We're often more like children than children in that respect. But the difference is that we recognize our mistakes and fight through them. Becoming an adult doesn't mean that your problems all suddenly disappear. Still, I imagine none of this will dissuade you from attempting to grow up as fast as you possibly can. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Not really, no. I wanna become a strong adult who can protect the people that are important to him. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Heh. But you're plenty strong enough already, Lowen. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Er, but weren't you just super worried about how I'd kill myself while making a pot of soup? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} You're able to pursue your aspirations with genuine fervor. And that comes from your own strength. Nothing else. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} So I have strength even though I'm still growing up? Hmm... Hey, Cleo? Do you think it's possible to be an adult AND a little brother? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} The only person who can answer that question is you, Lowen. But before we continue this conversation, let's try your soup. I'm simply famished. Oh, and now that you've proven yourself in my kitchen, I'll be assigning you meal prep duties. I assume you're all right with this arrangement? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Of course! Er, but there might still be SOME things I can't do. But I know you'll teach me how to do 'em when the time comes, right, Cleo?! &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|episode5Title=Always a Little Brother&lt;br /&gt;
|episode5Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Lowen}} So I think I have to leave the Halidom for a bit, Prince Euden. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Oh? Where are you headed? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} I'm going to visit my mother's grave. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} I see. Is Louise coming? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} No. We used to go together every year, but I decided to go on my own this time. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Hmm. I imagine you might run into fiends on the way. How about I come with you? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Can you let me go on my own? Please? Louise said it was okay and everything! It's a great chance for me to see if my training has been paying off. Don't worry! I'll be back home safe and sound before anyone even knows I'm gone. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Well, if you're decided, I won't stop you. Be safe, Lowen. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} I will! Byeeee! Oh man, I don't feel like things took quite this long when I came here with Louise. I think I'm lost—and that isn't good at ALL. Maybe I should go back... Wait, no! I can't! I have to get stronger! The prince would never turn back! Think, Lowen! Okay, at a time like this, Ranzal would tell a really funny joke or something to lighten the mood. AAAUGH! Those bushes MOOOOVED! Wh-who's there?! ...Oh, it's just a little bird. Aw, it's hurt! I don't think it can fly right now. But if it stays here, some fiend is gonna find it and eat it for a snack! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} GRRRR! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Eek! Th-that was... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} RRRRAAAAAARRRGH! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} (It's a fiend! And man, is it ever BIG... I can still get away if I go now, but I'd have to leave that little bird behind. Louise never ran away when she had to protect me. No matter how badly she was hurt, she always stuck it out. And if I want to become an adult who can protect people like she did... I don't have a choice!) &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Hey, you stupid fiend! If you're gonna fight someone, have a piece of ME! I'm way braver than you—my sister taught me that! And the prince taught me how to fight! I'm strong now, and I'm not gonna lose. SO COME AT ME, BRO! YAAAAAAAH! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Fiend}} GRAAAAAAAGH! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I'm worried about Lowen—I do hope that he's all right. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} It's only been three days since he set off, yeah? Ain't no reason to panic yet. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Three days is already far longer than such a trip should take. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} I TOLD ya, yer worrying too much! Have a little faith in the kid already. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} I agree. We need to believe in Lowen. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Hey, everybody! I'm baaaack! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Lowen! You're all right! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} We were so worried about you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Heh. I figured as much. But hey, I did it, right?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} That's very admirable of you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Thanks! Oh, and I also realized something on this trip. Until now, I thought that if I was still a little brother, I couldn't be an adult. But I was wrong. Even if I separate from my sister and become independent, it won't change the fact I'm her little bro. In fact, that's the whole reason I want to be strong in the first place! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} That's very wise of you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} I guess even little brothers can get strong, huh? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} They certainly can. And furthermore, you and Louise have an exceptionally powerful bond. That bond drives both of you to be the best people you can be. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Hey, that's right! ...Although I didn't do this ALL just for her. I did it for you guys as well, because you've all helped me out so much. Even though we were apart, we were still connected. I was never really alone. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} That is a fascinating way to look at it. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} I think I understand. I've often had times where the face of someone I care about has come to me in a time of crisis. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Oh man, this kid is blowin' my MIND right now. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Hee hee! Yeah, but I still have a long way to go. So I'm gonna bust my butt to become an even cooler adult! Er, along with all of you, of course. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} That sounds like a plan. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Oh, by the way, I brought back some meat from my trip. How about I try cooking it up into something we can all enjoy? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Are you certain that's a good idea? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} You're the one who taught me how to do kitchen stuff, Cleo. Believe in your student! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} A jest only, I assure you. I can't wait to try whatever you make. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Then get ready, because I'm gonna be the best at cooking and housework AND fighting! I'm gonna grow in a ton of ways and be the little brother everyone can count on! &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt; ''Lowen and Louise, brother and sister of the wind, are the latest to join the ranks of the Halidom.'' &amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Louise}} Time to get changed, Lowen. I stayed up all night sewing you these new clothes. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Um, okay. Thanks. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;'' Lowen's older sister had always done her best to raise him with care. And yet... ''&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Louise}} We're going to be living separately from now on, but I still want you to keep a good head on your shoulders, okay? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Don't worry, Sis. I'll be a total adult, and I'll do it for you! &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;'' The decision has been made for Lowen to live an independent life separate from his sister. However... ''&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Lowen, I've folded your laundry for you. I'll just put it here. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} You did my laundry again? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} It's quite all right—I was already doing the rest of the wash anyway. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Er, but doesn't everyone else help out with the chores around here? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I suppose the proper adults do, yes. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Then I should too! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Heh. There's no need to worry about it. Ah, I just remembered that today's afternoon snack is apple pie. You like pie, yes? When you're ready, wash your hands and come to the dining hall. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Um...thanks? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Lucaaa! ...He's not here either?! Honestly, where HAS he run off to? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Luca? He went to the woods, I think. Do you need something? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} I TOLD him we were going out to cull fiends today! We don't have enough people without him. Just what are we supposed to do now? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Oh! Oh! Let me come! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Er...you? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Is that a no? It sounds like a no. You don't think I'm strong enough, huh? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Perish the thought, Lowen. I'm merely worried, is all. You're still so young and cute, and... Ahem! Yes, well, there's no need for you to rush onto the battlefield. Please wait in the castle. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} ...... Ugh. What's even the point of me having separated from my sister? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Everything okay, Lowen? You look down. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Everyone keeps treating me like their baby brother, and I'm sick of it! I started living in a separate room from my sister because I wanted to get away from all that, but nothing's changed! I'm never gonna be able to become an adult like this. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Hmm. I see. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Take it easy, kid, yeah? Bein' an adult ain't nothin' ya wanna rush into—trust the old man on this one. Yer gonna be grown up before ya know it— and probably before ya want to, if I'm bein' totally honest. So for now, just kick back and enjoy lettin' everybody spoil ya. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} No! I want to change! I want to become an adult that my sister and everyone else can rely on! And I want to help protect people the way everyone else does. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} That's a fine goal. And if you're set on it, we'll be happy to support you. If there's something you need, just say the word, okay? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Hey, really? Thanks! Just you wait—I'm gonna be the best adult who ever adulted! &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|episode2Title=Who I Want to Become&lt;br /&gt;
|episode2Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Ranzal}} Hey, Lowen! I wanna bend yer ear a sec about all that growin' up business. What kinda adult do ya even wanna be? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Hmm... That's a good question. Well, I guess I wanna be able to do everything myself. Oh, but still be nice. And strong! And big. Oh, and— &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Hold up a tick, kid. Ya wanna be ripped? Then yer talkin' to the right guy! I'll let ya in on a secret method I keep in the back'a my head for just this kinda thing. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} A...secret method? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Ka-pow! Feast yer eyeballs on this here table! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Whoooa... Soooo much foooood... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Um, Ranzal? Please tell me you're not going to eat all of that. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Not just me—the kid's gonna help pack all this away! Ya wanna be big and strong like Ranzal, yeah? WHO WANTS THAT?! WHO WANTS TO BE BIG AND STRONG?! YOU DO! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} W-well, yeah, but...this is a lot of food. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} *sigh* Don't listen to him, Lowen. He just wants an excuse to stuff his face like he always does. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Hey, that ain't even remotely true! I'm looking out for the kid here. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Well, SOMEONE needs to eat this before it gets cold. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} C'mon, kid! Today...we FEAST! All right, food! I got a nice bit of stomach real estate with your name on it! *chomp* *horf* *slarrrfffp* &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Holy cow! I've never SEEN someone eat so fast. It's almost hypnotic... Er, I mean, I better start eating, and fast! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Lowen? I just want to point out that there are many large, fit adults in the world aside from Ranzal. You don't necessarily have to go about bulking up in the same way he does. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Indeed, who's to say that such a physique is even appropriate for you? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} But Ranzal's an adult, and he's REALLY strong! He's everything I'm not, you know? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} If you ask me, you possess any number of fine qualities that Ranzal lacks. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} She's right. True adults grow by building on their own strengths, not by pushing themselves to be something they aren't. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Yeah, but I dunno what my own strengths even ARE. But I do know I wanna be able to do anything—and also be super ripped just like Ranzal. So now I'm gonna EAT like he does, too! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Well, if you've made up your mind, I won't stop you. Oh and there's plenty more where that came from, so have all you like. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Thanks, Cleo! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Zzzzzz... Sandwiches... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Get up, you massive sack of suet! We have cleaning to do. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} C'mon, Ranzal! It's gonna be a pain for everyone else if you just eat and pass out like that! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Zzzzz... Honey-baked ham... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Um...Ranzal? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Lowen? I want you to promise me that you won't grow into an adult like...him. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Oh man. Ranzal seems really cool, but I guess he's also kinda uncool in some ways, huh? I'm gonna have to think a little more about what strengths I really want to have. Zzzz... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Ha ha! Did Ranzal really get Lowen to eat until he passed out? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Indeed—though he at least kept it together long enough to help with the cleaning. He even took on Ranzal's share of the work, so I imagine he's exhausted. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} He may be young, but he has quite the head on his shoulders. And compared to THIS one... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Zzzzzz... Gravy boats... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} *sigh* How can two sleeping faces look so  different from each other? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Unlike Ranzal, being adorable is certainly one of Lowen's strengths. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I think I can appreciate how Louise feels about him. Eat lots, sleep more, see the world, and learn at every step. Grow big and strong, Lowen. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Zzzz... &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|episode3Title=Admiration&lt;br /&gt;
|episode3Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Lowen}} What do you think of THIS?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} You've gotten really good, Lowen. I'm impressed. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} It's all thanks to your training. I'm strong enough to take on any enemies that come my way now! I'm not afraid of anything anymore. Not afraid...of anything... Oh man, I've gotta go to the bathroom. And I've come this far, but... Aaaugh! I can't do this on my own! Wait, no... I'm strong now! You can do this, Lowen. You can do this! Okay, here I go! Uh oh. Where's this? Am I...lost? AAAUUGH! Wait, no. That's just the wind. Stupid wind! That's not nice! Wait, footsteps? At this hour? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} Must...feed... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Wh-what was that voice?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} Muuust...feeeeed! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} I sure hope that isn't talking about me... Okay, this is all super weird, but I don't have a choice... I have to fight! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} GWAAAAAH! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} AAAAAAAAAAAGH! Wait. RANZAL? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} So...hungry... Must...feed... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Oh my gosh. He's SLEEPWALKING. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Haaaaaam... Piiiiiie... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Okay, he's gone now. Boy, I sure hope he doesn't catch a cold. He gave me a heck of a shock, though. Glad he wasn't some kind of monster. ...Huh? I can hear footsteps again. Is that you, Ranzal? Wait, that's not Ranzal. But then, who IS it? A fiend? A ghost? How should I attack it? ...H-hey! You! Stop right there! Eeeek! I can't take it any moooore! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Er, Lowen? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Euden?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Yes, it's me. I heard someone yelling out here and came to see what was going on. What're you doing out here at this hour? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Ummmmm... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Were you scared of something? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} I...um...had to use the bathroom. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Uh oh. Did you get lost? You know what? Never mind. Let me just take you there right now. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Thank you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} You're welcome. Honestly, I'm glad I made it in time. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Yeah. But still, I can't believe I couldn't even go to the bathroom by myself... I thought I was stronger, but I'm still just as weak as ever. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} That's not true at all, Lowen. You're absolutely getting stronger. But strength comes in many forms. Such as the strength to fight, or the strength to not give in to our fears. And I think it's good for a person to learn many different strengths. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Is that what you did? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} You bet. No one just starts out not being afraid of anything, after all. So you should just work hard and get stronger a little bit at a time. If you do that, the number of things that frighten you will decrease, and you'll be able to protect the people you love. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} You know what? You can leave me here. I think I'm gonna be fine. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} I'm off, then. Have a good night, Lowen. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} You too! Oh man, he's SOOO cool! I wanna be like him someday. I'm gonna work even harder to not just be the little brother anymore! &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|episode4Title=Growing Pains&lt;br /&gt;
|episode4Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Lowen}} Hooo boy! I'm really tired. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} You trained pretty hard today, Lowen. Make sure to wipe off all your sweat so you don't catch cold. Now then, are you hungry? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Now that you mention it, I might be a little hungry—but I think I'd like to try and make something myself. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} No, don't trouble yourself. Stay here and I'll whip something up. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} (It's happening slowly, but everyone is starting to rely on me more—except for Cleo, that is. At this rate, I'll never get her to stop treating me like a baby brother. I have to get her to recognize that I've grown, but how do I DO that?) &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Aha! Cleo! Cleeeo! Did you already start making the food? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I was just about to get started. Is something the matter? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} No! I just need you to let me take care of it. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} But... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Take a load off, Cleo! Rest those dogs! I've got lunch handled today. Come oooon! You gotta trust me with this stuff sometime! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} V-very well. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} All right! Lemme start by whipping up some soup. I think I remember Louise's recipe pretty well... So I cut the potatoes liiiike...this, right? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Curl your fingers! CURL YOUR FINGERS! You'll lop them off otherwise! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Right! Curled fingers, okay. Now then, everything is diced up, so we throw the veggies into the boiling water. Oh man, that water's hot! And there's steam everywhere. Maybe I'll just stand way back here and toss the veggies into— &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} You will most certainly NOT do that! The boiling water could splash out and scald the flesh right off your bones! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} I, uh, don't know if it's THAT hot, but sure. Lemme just drop them in real gently... Yeowch! Hot! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Be careful, for the love of the goddess!&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} (He's going to kill himself right in my own kitchen. Someone save me...) &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Ta-daaah! Soup's up! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} You finished, but... Urgh... I feel dizzy... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Are you okay, Cleo? You look completely exhausted! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I think...I may have worried about you overmuch... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Oh. I'm sorry. This is all my fault. I just wanted to help you out, Cleo. Then you could see how much I've grown and maybe you'd— &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I know, Lowen. It's all right. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} But I made you totally exhausted because I was so wrapped up in myself. I'm really sorry. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Come now, chin up. Accepting the ways in which we might be wanting is all part of maturing. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Heh. I guess I'm still pretty uncool, huh? I thought I had everything figured out, but I just ended up making trouble for you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Even grown-ups have their flaws, Lowen. We make unsound decisions, panic, and let our emotions get the best of us. We're often more like children than children in that respect. But the difference is that we recognize our mistakes and fight through them. Becoming an adult doesn't mean that your problems all suddenly disappear. Still, I imagine none of this will dissuade you from attempting to grow up as fast as you possibly can. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Not really, no. I wanna become a strong adult who can protect the people that are important to him. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Heh. But you're plenty strong enough already, Lowen. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Er, but weren't you just super worried about how I'd kill myself while making a pot of soup? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} You're able to pursue your aspirations with genuine fervor. And that comes from your own strength. Nothing else. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} So I have strength even though I'm still growing up? Hmm... Hey, Cleo? Do you think it's possible to be an adult AND a little brother? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} The only person who can answer that question is you, Lowen. But before we continue this conversation, let's try your soup. I'm simply famished. Oh, and now that you've proven yourself in my kitchen, I'll be assigning you meal prep duties. I assume you're all right with this arrangement? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Of course! Er, but there might still be SOME things I can't do. But I know you'll teach me how to do 'em when the time comes, right, Cleo?! &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|episode5Title=Always a Little Brother&lt;br /&gt;
|episode5Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Lowen}} So I think I have to leave the Halidom for a bit, Prince Euden. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Oh? Where are you headed? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} I'm going to visit my mother's grave. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} I see. Is Louise coming? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} No. We used to go together every year, but I decided to go on my own this time. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Hmm. I imagine you might run into fiends on the way. How about I come with you? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Can you let me go on my own? Please? Louise said it was okay and everything! It's a great chance for me to see if my training has been paying off. Don't worry! I'll be back home safe and sound before anyone even knows I'm gone. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Well, if you're decided, I won't stop you. Be safe, Lowen. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} I will! Byeeee! Oh man, I don't feel like things took quite this long when I came here with Louise. I think I'm lost—and that isn't good at ALL. Maybe I should go back... Wait, no! I can't! I have to get stronger! The prince would never turn back! Think, Lowen! Okay, at a time like this, Ranzal would tell a really funny joke or something to lighten the mood. AAAUGH! Those bushes MOOOOVED! Wh-who's there?! ...Oh, it's just a little bird. Aw, it's hurt! I don't think it can fly right now. But if it stays here, some fiend is gonna find it and eat it for a snack! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} GRRRR! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Eek! Th-that was... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} RRRRAAAAAARRRGH! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} (It's a fiend! And man, is it ever BIG... I can still get away if I go now, but I'd have to leave that little bird behind. Louise never ran away when she had to protect me. No matter how badly she was hurt, she always stuck it out. And if I want to become an adult who can protect people like she did... I don't have a choice!) &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Hey, you stupid fiend! If you're gonna fight someone, have a piece of ME! I'm way braver than you—my sister taught me that! And the prince taught me how to fight! I'm strong now, and I'm not gonna lose. SO COME AT ME, BRO! YAAAAAAAH! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Fiend}} GRAAAAAAAGH! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I'm worried about Lowen—I do hope that he's all right. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} It's only been three days since he set off, yeah? Ain't no reason to panic yet. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Three days is already far longer than such a trip should take. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} I TOLD ya, yer worrying too much! Have a little faith in the kid already. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} I agree. We need to believe in Lowen. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Hey, everybody! I'm baaaack! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Lowen! You're all right! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} We were so worried about you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Heh. I figured as much. But hey, I did it, right?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} That's very admirable of you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Thanks! Oh, and I also realized something on this trip. Until now, I thought that if I was still a little brother, I couldn't be an adult. But I was wrong. Even if I separate from my sister and become independent, it won't change the fact I'm her little bro. In fact, that's the whole reason I want to be strong in the first place! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} That's very wise of you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} I guess even little brothers can get strong, huh? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} They certainly can. And furthermore, you and Louise have an exceptionally powerful bond. That bond drives both of you to be the best people you can be. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Hey, that's right! ...Although I didn't do this ALL just for her. I did it for you guys as well, because you've all helped me out so much. Even though we were apart, we were still connected. I was never really alone. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} That is a fascinating way to look at it. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} I think I understand. I've often had times where the face of someone I care about has come to me in a time of crisis. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Oh man, this kid is blowin' my MIND right now. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Hee hee! Yeah, but I still have a long way to go. So I'm gonna bust my butt to become an even cooler adult! Er, along with all of you, of course. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} That sounds like a plan. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Oh, by the way, I brought back some meat from my trip. How about I try cooking it up into something we can all enjoy? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Are you certain that's a good idea? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} You're the one who taught me how to do kitchen stuff, Cleo. Believe in your student! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} A jest only, I assure you. I can't wait to try whatever you make. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Lowen}} Then get ready, because I'm gonna be the best at cooking and housework AND fighting! I'm gonna grow in a ton of ways and be the little brother everyone can count on! &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

{{ST|Cleo}} Your room will be just over there. Do you have any other questions? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} You're Heroes from another world, so why can't I make a contract with you? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Er, sorry? &lt;br /&gt;

{{ST|The Prince}} Well, she's a barrel of laughs. But she's going to be living here for a while, so we'll just have to find a way for all of us to get along. &lt;br /&gt;

{{ST|Ranzal}} Heeey, Veronica! Ya wanna head into town and get some grub? My treat! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Leave me alone. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} *sigh* This is proving surprisingly difficult. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} I know! Every time we ask her to do somethin', we get the cold shoulder. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} She's the exact opposite of Sarisse. How in the world are we supposed to make friends with someone like that?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Additionally, she's always in her room, which means I'm never able to clean— &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Bad news! A group of imperial soldiers is approaching the castle! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Get ready, everyone. We're moving out. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Wait. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Er, what is it, Princess? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I'm coming. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} You're our guest. We can't ask you to fi— &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I'm bored. Let me come. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Well, all right. But please don't do anything that puts you in danger. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Imperial Soldier A}} Your time has come, filthy criminals! Now you'll learn what happens when you make an enemy of the Dyrenell Empire! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Damn, there sure are a lot of 'em. Just hang back, Princess, yeah? We can protect ya better if yer... Uh oh. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} You're the enemy, right? So I can play with you until you break? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Imperial Soldier B}} Huh? Get out of here, kid! You're gonna get yourself hurt. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Are you threatening me? A shame. I think you need to die now. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Imperial Soldier B}} Huh?! Hey, s-stop! STOOOOP! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Imperial Soldier A}} Be you a child or not, no one gets away with treating the Empire like—AAAAARGH! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Why so scared? You started this. Don't you want to be played with? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Imperial Soldier B}} Eeeek! I don't wanna die! Mommyyyy! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Broken already? Tsk! That's no fun. Guess it's time to finish this... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} That's enough, Princess! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Hmm? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} They've lost the will to fight. If you keep hurting them, you're going to kill them. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Isn't that the point? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} We do not kill needlessly in this army. Now stop. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...Huh. Fine, then. Go away, you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Imperial Soldiers A &amp;amp; B}} EEEEEEK! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I don't know why you stopped me. The Empire is your enemy. In Embla, we kill our enemies. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} I understand that your world and ours have a number of differences. However, that's not how we do things here. Just because someone is our enemy doesn't give us the right to toy with them. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Hmm... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} So while you're with us, I'd prefer it if you...er...took it easy on the killing. Is that too much to ask? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} If you won't let me play with enemies, YOU have to play with me instead. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} It's a promise on my end. What about you? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Fine. Promise. I haven't made a promise like this in a long time. You people are strange. &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
|episode2Title=Another Promise&lt;br /&gt;
|episode2Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Alfonse}} The history between Askr and Embla is complicated to say the least. The former emperor of Embla sought to bring prosperity to his country by enslaving Heroes, as well as Askr itself. Several years ago, Princess Veronica suddenly declared her intention to follow in her father's footsteps and commenced a new invasion of Askr. My sister once said she might have done it because she was lonely, but I don't know the truth of it. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Thank you for telling me all of that. I actually think your sister might not be too far off the mark. Yes, she tried to kill those soldiers, but she doesn't strike me as a bad person, per se. I think she just doesn't know how to make friends. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} Many of us have long suspected the same. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Oh no! Veronica! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} I fear something ill may have occurred. Come, Prince! We must make haste! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Okay, what's going on? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I came to Veronica's room in the vain hope of finally cleaning it and found her lying motionless on the floor. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Well, she's still breathin' at least. ...Heeey! Can you heeeear me?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...ry... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Hmm? What was that? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...Hungry. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Together}} What?! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...I'm full now. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I'm glad to hear that. But what possessed you to starve yourself for so long? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} No one brought food to my room. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} What?! Wait, no. Needs more surprise. ...WHAAAAT?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Food always appears in my room at home. It never did here. Eventually, I was too hungry to move. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Ah, I get it. Back in Embla, you have servants who bring you food. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} *sigh* I thought I was being considerate by leaving her alone to her own devices, but if I had gone in earlier, none of this would have happened. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} Please do not blame yourself, Cleo. If Princess Veronica was hungry, she had but to tell us so. It's all right to rely on us, Princess, just as you did during the time when you lost your memory. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} No. We're not fighting now, but I won't owe anything to the prince of another country. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Listen, Veronica... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} What? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} There are all kinds of people here in this castle, from lots of different classes and backgrounds. But even so, we all have one thing in common... We're all friends. I'm not a prince or a title. I am Euden, just as you're Veronica. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Why would you choose not to be a prince? That's strange. You're strange. Stranger than any of the Heroes I've met from other worlds. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Oh, he's a strange one, all right. But he's just tryin' to tell you it's okay to be free and live life how you want. That might've been hard to do back home, but so long as you're in our world, just put all that royalty stuff out of your head and try to be our friend! That's what I want, anyway! You're kinda like a little sister I want to help out. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Is there anyone normal in this castle? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} I am with them in this, Princess Veronica. This is neither Askr nor Embla. And until we find a way back home, we're all after the same thing. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I... All right. I'll try to be...friends. But only since it's temporary. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Hot damn! Let's shake on it! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Ow. Let go. You're hurting me. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Ack! Sorry! I did it the same way I shake hands with my sister, and she's kind of a beast. ...How's this? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Better. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Really? Good! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} You're strange AND naive. What a troublesome bunch. But a promise is a promise. I'll keep it. That's what my brother once taught me... &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
|episode3Title=Brotherly Love&lt;br /&gt;
|episode3Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Marth}} There you are; all clean. It is a great boon to have such fine horses. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Horses}} Neeeigh! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Marth}} Now I just need to give them all a good brushing and I can... Hmm? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Marth}} What is it, Princess Veronica? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} You have horses. Can I ride one? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Marth}} Certainly. Shall I teach you how? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I know how. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Marth}} I see. Did you grow up riding horses? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I had two people who taught me to ride. One was my older brother. I haven't seen him in a while. I wonder where he is... &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Marth}} ...This happened a little while ago. She seemed quite lonely as she spoke of her brother—he must have been a very lovely person. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Huh. I always thought she seemed like a little sister, but I didn't know she really WAS someone's little sister. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} It's no surprise she'd be lonely if she hasn't seen her sibling in a while. I know exactly how that feels. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Think we can do something to take her mind off it? I mean, we're both older brothers, yeah? And while we can't be her family, we can at least try and help her have fun. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} I suppose we DID just promise to all be friends... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Great! Then let's invite her somewhere. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Why did you bring me outside? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} 'Cause I wanted to show you all the rare animals that live deep inside the forest! There are loads of cute critters here. ...Hey, look! There's some now! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Squirrel}} Squeak! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Deer}} Bleeeeat! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Bird}} Tweet tweet! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} D'aw! You gotta love 'em, right? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Not interested. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Whaaat?! Oh man, that's weird. Sarisse would have been freakin' out if I showed her a bunch of cute animals. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} And now it's your turn? What are you trying to do? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} You always have a book with you, so I thought I'd read you one of my favorite stories. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Reading is okay, I guess. But I mostly read magical grimoires. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Good enough! See, writing stories is sort of a hobby of mine, so I thought I'd share my latest work with you. It's called &amp;quot;The Prince of a Lost Country and the Swindled—&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Not interested. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} R-really? Gee, Zethia always loved it when I read to her... &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Okay, I don't get how to do this at ALL! It's like little sisters have become a total mystery to me! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} What are we doing wrong? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} What's going on, you two? You both look terribly depressed. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Well, Veronica was feelin' low after being separated from her brother, so we were tryin' to cheer her up. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} But nothing we do makes her happy at all. Maybe we're both failures as brothers. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Is that what you've been doing? You can stop doing it now. You'll never take my brother's place. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Wait, Alfonse! You're ALSO an older  brother, right? Because in that case, it's time for a Triple Brother Offensive! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} It's true that my sister is younger than I, but... Er... Well, perhaps we could go to town and shop for dresses or sweets. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Don't need any. Listen to me. I miss my brother. It makes me sad and lonely. But I don't want any of you to try and take his place. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} But if you're sad, what can it hurt? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Because while I'm here, I'm just Veronica. Not a princess or a sister—just Veronica. That's what you said. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} ...You remembered. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Of course I did. So was it a lie? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} What? No! Of course not! Ha ha ha! Still, I guess you see us as friends more than we thought, huh? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Why do you assume that? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} Heh. I believe they're just glad you remembered your promise. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Oh. Huh. Don't worry. So long as I'm in this castle, I'll keep my promises. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} We believe you, Veronica. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Well, we might not be able to become your brothers, but we can still have fun! &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
|episode4Title=Second Thoughts&lt;br /&gt;
|episode4Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Veronica}} What a nice night. I should go for a walk. Hmm. I guess everyone is asleep. There's no one he... Ah! That looked like my brother! Wait! Come back!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} *pant* *pant* I can't find him anywhere... Were my eyes playing tricks? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} Might I have a moment of your time, Your Highness? &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;''The Black Raven - Harle''&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I know you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} You certainly do! I am Harle of the Dyrenell Empire, and I have come to escort you back with me. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Why? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Because I know you grow weary of living with that goody-goody prince! Deep down, you are both brutal and cold— and you know it. The Empire is a far more fitting place for you to be. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Not interested. Also, I'm tired. I'm going back now. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Well, that is a shame. But you really SHOULD reconsider, because I will use force if I must. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Tsk. What a tedious man you are. I guess I'll do this the hard way. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Imperial Soldiers}} Aaargh! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Uh oh. They're in a LOT of pain. You should probably go now. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Well, THIS is strange! I heard tale upon tale of the merciless princess of Embla who killed anyone she deemed her enemy. Heavens, you aren't HOLDING BACK, are you? If you consider us enemies, you really should try to kill us. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} You are the castle's enemy... but I won't kill you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Whyever not? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Because I promised the prince to be friends while I was here. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Aaaah ha ha ha! Friends? FRIENDS?! Simply unbelievable! Aaaah ha ha! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} What's so funny? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Hoooo! Friends! Oh, goodness me. Well, I mean, you don't honestly TRUST these people, do you? To you, they're just Heroes from another realm—and I've heard plenty about how such relationships usually end with you: They turn their backs and betray you! When the same thing happens this time, I imagine you will be so very sad. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} That's why you should come with us to the Empire. Shared goals won't betray you like &amp;quot;friends&amp;quot; will—a fact you know well. And if you decide to kill them before they manage to betray you, know that you have the Empire's complete and full support. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Veronicaaa! Where aaaaare you?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} That's the prince. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Bah. I see we are out of time. Very well, I will withdraw for today. But I look forward to an answer you won't regret when we next meet, Your Highness. Until then...farewell! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} *pant* There you are, Veronica! Thank goodness you're safe! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} What'd you wander off all alone for? If you wanted to take in the night air, we'd have been happy to tag along. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} What are you doing here? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} We couldn't find you anywhere and got worried. It's dangerous around here at night, you know? Still, you're okay, and that's what matters. So, um, you wanna keep walkin'? I could come with you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} The stars ARE lovely tonight. Still, if you want to go on night walks in the future, Veronica, please let one of us know so we don't worry. Okay? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} The future... Okay. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} It's settled. ...Now gimme your hand. I'm gonna make sure you don't get lost on the way back to the castle. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} No. I'm not a child. Trust... Shared goals... I don't know what to do... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Did you say something, Veronica? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} No. And stop holding out your hand. I'm fine on my own. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...What should I do? &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
|episode5Title=Keeping Promises&lt;br /&gt;
|episode5Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Veronica}} Who's making all that noise at this time of night? I can't sleep! ...Hmm. No one there. Did they go outside? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} Princess Veronica! Quickly, come with me! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Alfonse? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} Someone wishes to speak with you. Let us make haste! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Stop tugging me! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} There he is. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Good evening, Your Highness. I've come to collect you, as agreed. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} You! I made no such arrangement. And Alfonse, why... Ah. You're Loki. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse?}} Oh, fiddlesticks! I should have known my disguise wouldn't last long against you. And here I was hoping your loathing for Alfonse would cloud your judgment. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Loki}} It seems you two have grown closer than I was expecting. How charming! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} We tried it your way, Loki—now we will try it mine. Come here, Princess, or I will be forced to... Hmm? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Hold it right there! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} What are you doing in this... Er, Princess Veronica? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Tsk! MUST I be thwarted at every turn by this pack of pathetic do-gooders?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Loki}} Ah, but this is actually the PERFECT time for them to arrive, because now we have both princes sitting in front of us! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Oh ho! Loki, you ARE a sly devil. Indeed, this is a wonderful opportunity to help Her Highness realize the truth of her feelings. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Get away from her! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} You must slaughter the both of them, Your Highness. Before they can betray you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Quiet. I have no intention of killing them at the moment. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Loki}} But killing them would be such FUN! Come now, let us see just a teeensy glimpse of your amazing power. Why hold back? Heed the whispers of your heart, dear. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} Kill. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Ah! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} Askr must be destroyed! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Ugh... Urrghh... Aaaaagh! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Veronica, wait! What are you doing?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Aaaah ha ha! Oh, what naive fools you are! She's been secretly wanting to kill you before you abandon her—and she's wanted to do it this ENTIRE time! Oh, what cruelty from such a sweet, innocent soul! Now go, my darling! Slay them with your own two hands! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} Princess Veronica! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Brother... I... Promise... Aaargh! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Loki}} Don't stop NOW! Kill them already! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I promised...not to. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Loki}} Oh for heaven's sake! You might try to ignore your primal instinct for the sake of some sappy promise, but how long can you REALLY hold out? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} As long as I need to... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} But WHY?!  &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Because I'm Veronica. Not a princess—just Veronica. So I'll keep my promise...for now. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Together}} Ah! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Loki}} *sigh* Well, this is a TERRIBLE bore! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} I couldn't agree more. I had thought her more wise than this, but I see we have been wasting our time. Let us be off. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Loki}} No matter what happens here, know that tragedy WILL occur when you finally return to your home world. And I look forward to being VEEERY entertained by it. Tee hee hee hee! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Heeeeey! Are you two okay? ...Whoa, what's up, Veronica? You're super pale! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I will attend to her at once. But what happened to Harle and Loki? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Veronica drove them away. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} Thank you, Princess Veronica. Thank you for keeping your word. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I didn't do anything. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} That's not true. You did great—and we were all happy to see that what we said left such a mark on you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Such praise from the prince is quite exceptional. To celebrate, what would you like me to make for dinner? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Hey, I want in on this praising action! C'mere, kid! I'm gonna give you a Luca Head-Rub Special! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Don't treat me like a child. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Ha ha! Don't be too harsh on him. He's just trying to make you happy. I'm sure your brother would be happy if he was here, but we at least want to praise you in his stead. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Stop trying to replace him! *sigh* You really are a strange bunch. I don't know how to deal with you. But...maybe it's okay once in a while. &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;''Emblian Princess - Veronica''&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Your room will be just over there. Do you have any other questions? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} You're Heroes from another world, so why can't I make a contract with you? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Er, sorry? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Why won't you become mine? ...Bah. I'm bored already. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Oh, wait! We still haven't explained the communal...space... And she's gone. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Well, she's a barrel of laughs. But she's going to be living here for a while, so we'll just have to find a way for all of us to get along. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Greetings, Veronica. If you have come here in search of a sparring partner, I would be happy to oblige you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Not interested. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Oh! Well...all right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Are you feeling hungry, Veronica? I just finished making stew. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I'm fine. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Er, fair enough... &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Heeey, Veronica! Ya wanna head into town and get some grub? My treat! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Leave me alone. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} *sigh* This is proving surprisingly difficult. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} I know! Every time we ask her to do somethin', we get the cold shoulder. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} She's the exact opposite of Sarisse. How in the world are we supposed to make friends with someone like that?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Additionally, she's always in her room, which means I'm never able to clean— &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Bad news! A group of imperial soldiers is approaching the castle! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Get ready, everyone. We're moving out. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Wait. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Er, what is it, Princess? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I'm coming. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} You're our guest. We can't ask you to fi— &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I'm bored. Let me come. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Well, all right. But please don't do anything that puts you in danger. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Imperial Soldier A}} Your time has come, filthy criminals! Now you'll learn what happens when you make an enemy of the Dyrenell Empire! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Damn, there sure are a lot of 'em. Just hang back, Princess, yeah? We can protect ya better if yer... Uh oh. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} You're the enemy, right? So I can play with you until you break? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Imperial Soldier B}} Huh? Get out of here, kid! You're gonna get yourself hurt. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Are you threatening me? A shame. I think you need to die now. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Imperial Soldier B}} Huh?! Hey, s-stop! STOOOOP! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Imperial Soldier A}} Be you a child or not, no one gets away with treating the Empire like—AAAAARGH! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Why so scared? You started this. Don't you want to be played with? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Imperial Soldier B}} Eeeek! I don't wanna die! Mommyyyy! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Broken already? Tsk! That's no fun. Guess it's time to finish this... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} That's enough, Princess! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Hmm? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} They've lost the will to fight. If you keep hurting them, you're going to kill them. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Isn't that the point? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} We do not kill needlessly in this army. Now stop. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...Huh. Fine, then. Go away, you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Imperial Soldiers A &amp;amp; B}} EEEEEEK! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I don't know why you stopped me. The Empire is your enemy. In Embla, we kill our enemies. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} I understand that your world and ours have a number of differences. However, that's not how we do things here. Just because someone is our enemy doesn't give us the right to toy with them. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Hmm... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} So while you're with us, I'd prefer it if you...er...took it easy on the killing. Is that too much to ask? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} If you won't let me play with enemies, YOU have to play with me instead. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} It's a promise on my end. What about you? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Fine. Promise. I haven't made a promise like this in a long time. You people are strange. &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
|episode2Title=Another Promise&lt;br /&gt;
|episode2Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Alfonse}} The history between Askr and Embla is complicated to say the least. The former emperor of Embla sought to bring prosperity to his country by enslaving Heroes, as well as Askr itself. Several years ago, Princess Veronica suddenly declared her intention to follow in her father's footsteps and commenced a new invasion of Askr. My sister once said she might have done it because she was lonely, but I don't know the truth of it. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Thank you for telling me all of that. I actually think your sister might not be too far off the mark. Yes, she tried to kill those soldiers, but she doesn't strike me as a bad person, per se. I think she just doesn't know how to make friends. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} Many of us have long suspected the same. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Oh no! Veronica! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} I fear something ill may have occurred. Come, Prince! We must make haste! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Okay, what's going on? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I came to Veronica's room in the vain hope of finally cleaning it and found her lying motionless on the floor. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Well, she's still breathin' at least. ...Heeey! Can you heeeear me?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...ry... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Hmm? What was that? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...Hungry. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Together}} What?! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...I'm full now. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I'm glad to hear that. But what possessed you to starve yourself for so long? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} No one brought food to my room. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} What?! Wait, no. Needs more surprise. ...WHAAAAT?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Food always appears in my room at home. It never did here. Eventually, I was too hungry to move. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Ah, I get it. Back in Embla, you have servants who bring you food. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} *sigh* I thought I was being considerate by leaving her alone to her own devices, but if I had gone in earlier, none of this would have happened. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} Please do not blame yourself, Cleo. If Princess Veronica was hungry, she had but to tell us so. It's all right to rely on us, Princess, just as you did during the time when you lost your memory. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} No. We're not fighting now, but I won't owe anything to the prince of another country. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Listen, Veronica... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} What? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} There are all kinds of people here in this castle, from lots of different classes and backgrounds. But even so, we all have one thing in common... We're all friends. I'm not a prince or a title. I am Euden, just as you're Veronica. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Why would you choose not to be a prince? That's strange. You're strange. Stranger than any of the Heroes I've met from other worlds. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Oh, he's a strange one, all right. But he's just tryin' to tell you it's okay to be free and live life how you want. That might've been hard to do back home, but so long as you're in our world, just put all that royalty stuff out of your head and try to be our friend! That's what I want, anyway! You're kinda like a little sister I want to help out. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Is there anyone normal in this castle? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} I am with them in this, Princess Veronica. This is neither Askr nor Embla. And until we find a way back home, we're all after the same thing. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I... All right. I'll try to be...friends. But only since it's temporary. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Hot damn! Let's shake on it! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Ow. Let go. You're hurting me. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Ack! Sorry! I did it the same way I shake hands with my sister, and she's kind of a beast. ...How's this? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Better. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Really? Good! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} You're strange AND naive. What a troublesome bunch. But a promise is a promise. I'll keep it. That's what my brother once taught me... &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
|episode3Title=Brotherly Love&lt;br /&gt;
|episode3Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Marth}} There you are; all clean. It is a great boon to have such fine horses. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Horses}} Neeeigh! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Marth}} Now I just need to give them all a good brushing and I can... Hmm? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Marth}} What is it, Princess Veronica? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} You have horses. Can I ride one? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Marth}} Certainly. Shall I teach you how? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I know how. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Marth}} I see. Did you grow up riding horses? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I had two people who taught me to ride. One was my older brother. I haven't seen him in a while. I wonder where he is... &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Marth}} ...This happened a little while ago. She seemed quite lonely as she spoke of her brother—he must have been a very lovely person. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Huh. I always thought she seemed like a little sister, but I didn't know she really WAS someone's little sister. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} It's no surprise she'd be lonely if she hasn't seen her sibling in a while. I know exactly how that feels. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Think we can do something to take her mind off it? I mean, we're both older brothers, yeah? And while we can't be her family, we can at least try and help her have fun. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} I suppose we DID just promise to all be friends... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Great! Then let's invite her somewhere. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Why did you bring me outside? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} 'Cause I wanted to show you all the rare animals that live deep inside the forest! There are loads of cute critters here. ...Hey, look! There's some now! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Squirrel}} Squeak! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Deer}} Bleeeeat! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Bird}} Tweet tweet! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} D'aw! You gotta love 'em, right? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Not interested. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Whaaat?! Oh man, that's weird. Sarisse would have been freakin' out if I showed her a bunch of cute animals. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} And now it's your turn? What are you trying to do? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} You always have a book with you, so I thought I'd read you one of my favorite stories. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Reading is okay, I guess. But I mostly read magical grimoires. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Good enough! See, writing stories is sort of a hobby of mine, so I thought I'd share my latest work with you. It's called &amp;quot;The Prince of a Lost Country and the Swindled—&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Not interested. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} R-really? Gee, Zethia always loved it when I read to her... &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Okay, I don't get how to do this at ALL! It's like little sisters have become a total mystery to me! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} What are we doing wrong? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} What's going on, you two? You both look terribly depressed. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Well, Veronica was feelin' low after being separated from her brother, so we were tryin' to cheer her up. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} But nothing we do makes her happy at all. Maybe we're both failures as brothers. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Is that what you've been doing? You can stop doing it now. You'll never take my brother's place. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Wait, Alfonse! You're ALSO an older  brother, right? Because in that case, it's time for a Triple Brother Offensive! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} It's true that my sister is younger than I, but... Er... Well, perhaps we could go to town and shop for dresses or sweets. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Don't need any. Listen to me. I miss my brother. It makes me sad and lonely. But I don't want any of you to try and take his place. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} But if you're sad, what can it hurt? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Because while I'm here, I'm just Veronica. Not a princess or a sister—just Veronica. That's what you said. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} ...You remembered. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Of course I did. So was it a lie? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} What? No! Of course not! Ha ha ha! Still, I guess you see us as friends more than we thought, huh? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Why do you assume that? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} Heh. I believe they're just glad you remembered your promise. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Oh. Huh. Don't worry. So long as I'm in this castle, I'll keep my promises. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} We believe you, Veronica. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Well, we might not be able to become your brothers, but we can still have fun! &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
|episode4Title=Second Thoughts&lt;br /&gt;
|episode4Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Veronica}} What a nice night. I should go for a walk. Hmm. I guess everyone is asleep. There's no one he... Ah! That looked like my brother! Wait! Come back!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} *pant* *pant* I can't find him anywhere... Were my eyes playing tricks? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} Might I have a moment of your time, Your Highness? &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;''The Black Raven - Harle''&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I know you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} You certainly do! I am Harle of the Dyrenell Empire, and I have come to escort you back with me. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Why? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Because I know you grow weary of living with that goody-goody prince! Deep down, you are both brutal and cold— and you know it. The Empire is a far more fitting place for you to be. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Not interested. Also, I'm tired. I'm going back now. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Well, that is a shame. But you really SHOULD reconsider, because I will use force if I must. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Tsk. What a tedious man you are. I guess I'll do this the hard way. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Imperial Soldiers}} Aaargh! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Uh oh. They're in a LOT of pain. You should probably go now. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Well, THIS is strange! I heard tale upon tale of the merciless princess of Embla who killed anyone she deemed her enemy. Heavens, you aren't HOLDING BACK, are you? If you consider us enemies, you really should try to kill us. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} You are the castle's enemy... but I won't kill you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Whyever not? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Because I promised the prince to be friends while I was here. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Aaaah ha ha ha! Friends? FRIENDS?! Simply unbelievable! Aaaah ha ha! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} What's so funny? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Hoooo! Friends! Oh, goodness me. Well, I mean, you don't honestly TRUST these people, do you? To you, they're just Heroes from another realm—and I've heard plenty about how such relationships usually end with you: They turn their backs and betray you! When the same thing happens this time, I imagine you will be so very sad. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} That's why you should come with us to the Empire. Shared goals won't betray you like &amp;quot;friends&amp;quot; will—a fact you know well. And if you decide to kill them before they manage to betray you, know that you have the Empire's complete and full support. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Veronicaaa! Where aaaaare you?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} That's the prince. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Bah. I see we are out of time. Very well, I will withdraw for today. But I look forward to an answer you won't regret when we next meet, Your Highness. Until then...farewell! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} *pant* There you are, Veronica! Thank goodness you're safe! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} What'd you wander off all alone for? If you wanted to take in the night air, we'd have been happy to tag along. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} What are you doing here? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} We couldn't find you anywhere and got worried. It's dangerous around here at night, you know? Still, you're okay, and that's what matters. So, um, you wanna keep walkin'? I could come with you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} The stars ARE lovely tonight. Still, if you want to go on night walks in the future, Veronica, please let one of us know so we don't worry. Okay? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} The future... Okay. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} It's settled. ...Now gimme your hand. I'm gonna make sure you don't get lost on the way back to the castle. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} No. I'm not a child. Trust... Shared goals... I don't know what to do... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Did you say something, Veronica? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} No. And stop holding out your hand. I'm fine on my own. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...What should I do? &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
|episode5Title=Keeping Promises&lt;br /&gt;
|episode5Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Veronica}} Who's making all that noise at this time of night? I can't sleep! ...Hmm. No one there. Did they go outside? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} Princess Veronica! Quickly, come with me! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Alfonse? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} Someone wishes to speak with you. Let us make haste! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Stop tugging me! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} There he is. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Good evening, Your Highness. I've come to collect you, as agreed. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} You! I made no such arrangement. And Alfonse, why... Ah. You're Loki. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse?}} Oh, fiddlesticks! I should have known my disguise wouldn't last long against you. And here I was hoping your loathing for Alfonse would cloud your judgment. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Loki}} It seems you two have grown closer than I was expecting. How charming! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} We tried it your way, Loki—now we will try it mine. Come here, Princess, or I will be forced to... Hmm? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Hold it right there! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} What are you doing in this... Er, Princess Veronica? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Tsk! MUST I be thwarted at every turn by this pack of pathetic do-gooders?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Loki}} Ah, but this is actually the PERFECT time for them to arrive, because now we have both princes sitting in front of us! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Oh ho! Loki, you ARE a sly devil. Indeed, this is a wonderful opportunity to help Her Highness realize the truth of her feelings. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Get away from her! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} You must slaughter the both of them, Your Highness. Before they can betray you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Quiet. I have no intention of killing them at the moment. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Loki}} But killing them would be such FUN! Come now, let us see just a teeensy glimpse of your amazing power. Why hold back? Heed the whispers of your heart, dear. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} Kill. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Ah! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} Askr must be destroyed! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Ugh... Urrghh... Aaaaagh! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Veronica, wait! What are you doing?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Aaaah ha ha! Oh, what naive fools you are! She's been secretly wanting to kill you before you abandon her—and she's wanted to do it this ENTIRE time! Oh, what cruelty from such a sweet, innocent soul! Now go, my darling! Slay them with your own two hands! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} Princess Veronica! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Brother... I... Promise... Aaargh! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Loki}} Don't stop NOW! Kill them already! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I promised...not to. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Loki}} Oh for heaven's sake! You might try to ignore your primal instinct for the sake of some sappy promise, but how long can you REALLY hold out? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} As long as I need to... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} But WHY?!  &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Because I'm Veronica. Not a princess—just Veronica. So I'll keep my promise...for now. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Together}} Ah! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Loki}} *sigh* Well, this is a TERRIBLE bore! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} I couldn't agree more. I had thought her more wise than this, but I see we have been wasting our time. Let us be off. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Loki}} No matter what happens here, know that tragedy WILL occur when you finally return to your home world. And I look forward to being VEEERY entertained by it. Tee hee hee hee! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Heeeeey! Are you two okay? ...Whoa, what's up, Veronica? You're super pale! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I will attend to her at once. But what happened to Harle and Loki? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Veronica drove them away. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} Thank you, Princess Veronica. Thank you for keeping your word. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I didn't do anything. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} That's not true. You did great—and we were all happy to see that what we said left such a mark on you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Such praise from the prince is quite exceptional. To celebrate, what would you like me to make for dinner? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Hey, I want in on this praising action! C'mere, kid! I'm gonna give you a Luca Head-Rub Special! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Don't treat me like a child. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Ha ha! Don't be too harsh on him. He's just trying to make you happy. I'm sure your brother would be happy if he was here, but we at least want to praise you in his stead. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Stop trying to replace him! *sigh* You really are a strange bunch. I don't know how to deal with you. But...maybe it's okay once in a while. &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|episode1Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|The Prince}} Welcome to the Halidom, Princess. Please make yourself at home. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...... &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;''Emblian Princess - Veronica''&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Your room will be just over there. Do you have any other questions? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} You're Heroes from another world, so why can't I make a contract with you? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Er, sorry? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Why won't you become mine? ...Bah. I'm bored already. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Oh, wait! We still haven't explained the communal...space... And she's gone. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Well, she's a barrel of laughs. But she's going to be living here for a while, so we'll just have to find a way for all of us to get along. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Greetings, Veronica. If you have come here in search of a sparring partner, I would be happy to oblige you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Not interested. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Oh! Well...all right. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Are you feeling hungry, Veronica? I just finished making stew. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I'm fine. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Er, fair enough... &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Heeey, Veronica! Ya wanna head into town and get some grub? My treat! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Leave me alone. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} *sigh* This is proving surprisingly difficult. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} I know! Every time we ask her to do somethin', we get the cold shoulder. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} She's the exact opposite of Sarisse. How in the world are we supposed to make friends with someone like that?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Additionally, she's always in her room, which means I'm never able to clean— &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Elisanne}} Bad news! A group of imperial soldiers is approaching the castle! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Get ready, everyone. We're moving out. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Wait. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Er, what is it, Princess? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I'm coming. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} You're our guest. We can't ask you to fi— &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I'm bored. Let me come. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Well, all right. But please don't do anything that puts you in danger. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Imperial Soldier A}} Your time has come, filthy criminals! Now you'll learn what happens when you make an enemy of the Dyrenell Empire! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Ranzal}} Damn, there sure are a lot of 'em. Just hang back, Princess, yeah? We can protect ya better if yer... Uh oh. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} You're the enemy, right? So I can play with you until you break? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Imperial Soldier B}} Huh? Get out of here, kid! You're gonna get yourself hurt. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Are you threatening me? A shame. I think you need to die now. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Imperial Soldier B}} Huh?! Hey, s-stop! STOOOOP! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Imperial Soldier A}} Be you a child or not, no one gets away with treating the Empire like—AAAAARGH! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Why so scared? You started this. Don't you want to be played with? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Imperial Soldier B}} Eeeek! I don't wanna die! Mommyyyy! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Broken already? Tsk! That's no fun. Guess it's time to finish this... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} That's enough, Princess! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Hmm? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} They've lost the will to fight. If you keep hurting them, you're going to kill them. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Isn't that the point? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} We do not kill needlessly in this army. Now stop. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...Huh. Fine, then. Go away, you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Imperial Soldiers A &amp;amp; B}} EEEEEEK! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I don't know why you stopped me. The Empire is your enemy. In Embla, we kill our enemies. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} I understand that your world and ours have a number of differences. However, that's not how we do things here. Just because someone is our enemy doesn't give us the right to toy with them. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Hmm... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} So while you're with us, I'd prefer it if you...er...took it easy on the killing. Is that too much to ask? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} If you won't let me play with enemies, YOU have to play with me instead. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} It's a promise on my end. What about you? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Fine. Promise. I haven't made a promise like this in a long time. You people are strange. &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
|episode2Title=Another Promise&lt;br /&gt;
|episode2Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Alfonse}} The history between Askr and Embla is complicated to say the least. The former emperor of Embla sought to bring prosperity to his country by enslaving Heroes, as well as Askr itself. Several years ago, Princess Veronica suddenly declared her intention to follow in her father's footsteps and commenced a new invasion of Askr. My sister once said she might have done it because she was lonely, but I don't know the truth of it. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Thank you for telling me all of that. I actually think your sister might not be too far off the mark. Yes, she tried to kill those soldiers, but she doesn't strike me as a bad person, per se. I think she just doesn't know how to make friends. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} Many of us have long suspected the same. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Oh no! Veronica! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} I fear something ill may have occurred. Come, Prince! We must make haste! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Okay, what's going on? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I came to Veronica's room in the vain hope of finally cleaning it and found her lying motionless on the floor. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Well, she's still breathin' at least. ...Heeey! Can you heeeear me?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...ry... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Hmm? What was that? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...Hungry. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Together}} What?! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...I'm full now. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I'm glad to hear that. But what possessed you to starve yourself for so long? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} No one brought food to my room. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} What?! Wait, no. Needs more surprise. ...WHAAAAT?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Food always appears in my room at home. It never did here. Eventually, I was too hungry to move. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Ah, I get it. Back in Embla, you have servants who bring you food. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} *sigh* I thought I was being considerate by leaving her alone to her own devices, but if I had gone in earlier, none of this would have happened. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} Please do not blame yourself, Cleo. If Princess Veronica was hungry, she had but to tell us so. It's all right to rely on us, Princess, just as you did during the time when you lost your memory. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} No. We're not fighting now, but I won't owe anything to the prince of another country. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Listen, Veronica... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} What? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} There are all kinds of people here in this castle, from lots of different classes and backgrounds. But even so, we all have one thing in common... We're all friends. I'm not a prince or a title. I am Euden, just as you're Veronica. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Why would you choose not to be a prince? That's strange. You're strange. Stranger than any of the Heroes I've met from other worlds. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Oh, he's a strange one, all right. But he's just tryin' to tell you it's okay to be free and live life how you want. That might've been hard to do back home, but so long as you're in our world, just put all that royalty stuff out of your head and try to be our friend! That's what I want, anyway! You're kinda like a little sister I want to help out. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Is there anyone normal in this castle? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} I am with them in this, Princess Veronica. This is neither Askr nor Embla. And until we find a way back home, we're all after the same thing. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I... All right. I'll try to be...friends. But only since it's temporary. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Hot damn! Let's shake on it! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Ow. Let go. You're hurting me. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Ack! Sorry! I did it the same way I shake hands with my sister, and she's kind of a beast. ...How's this? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Better. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Really? Good! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} You're strange AND naive. What a troublesome bunch. But a promise is a promise. I'll keep it. That's what my brother once taught me... &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
|episode3Title=Brotherly Love&lt;br /&gt;
|episode3Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Marth}} There you are; all clean. It is a great boon to have such fine horses. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Horses}} Neeeigh! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Marth}} Now I just need to give them all a good brushing and I can... Hmm? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Marth}} What is it, Princess Veronica? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} You have horses. Can I ride one? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Marth}} Certainly. Shall I teach you how? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I know how. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Marth}} I see. Did you grow up riding horses? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I had two people who taught me to ride. One was my older brother. I haven't seen him in a while. I wonder where he is... &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Marth}} ...This happened a little while ago. She seemed quite lonely as she spoke of her brother—he must have been a very lovely person. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Huh. I always thought she seemed like a little sister, but I didn't know she really WAS someone's little sister. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} It's no surprise she'd be lonely if she hasn't seen her sibling in a while. I know exactly how that feels. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Think we can do something to take her mind off it? I mean, we're both older brothers, yeah? And while we can't be her family, we can at least try and help her have fun. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} I suppose we DID just promise to all be friends... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Great! Then let's invite her somewhere. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Why did you bring me outside? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} 'Cause I wanted to show you all the rare animals that live deep inside the forest! There are loads of cute critters here. ...Hey, look! There's some now! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Squirrel}} Squeak! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Deer}} Bleeeeat! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Bird}} Tweet tweet! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} D'aw! You gotta love 'em, right? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Not interested. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Whaaat?! Oh man, that's weird. Sarisse would have been freakin' out if I showed her a bunch of cute animals. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} And now it's your turn? What are you trying to do? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} You always have a book with you, so I thought I'd read you one of my favorite stories. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Reading is okay, I guess. But I mostly read magical grimoires. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Good enough! See, writing stories is sort of a hobby of mine, so I thought I'd share my latest work with you. It's called &amp;quot;The Prince of a Lost Country and the Swindled—&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Not interested. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} R-really? Gee, Zethia always loved it when I read to her... &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Okay, I don't get how to do this at ALL! It's like little sisters have become a total mystery to me! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} What are we doing wrong? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} What's going on, you two? You both look terribly depressed. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Well, Veronica was feelin' low after being separated from her brother, so we were tryin' to cheer her up. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} But nothing we do makes her happy at all. Maybe we're both failures as brothers. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Is that what you've been doing? You can stop doing it now. You'll never take my brother's place. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Wait, Alfonse! You're ALSO an older  brother, right? Because in that case, it's time for a Triple Brother Offensive! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} It's true that my sister is younger than I, but... Er... Well, perhaps we could go to town and shop for dresses or sweets. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Don't need any. Listen to me. I miss my brother. It makes me sad and lonely. But I don't want any of you to try and take his place. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} But if you're sad, what can it hurt? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Because while I'm here, I'm just Veronica. Not a princess or a sister—just Veronica. That's what you said. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} ...You remembered. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Of course I did. So was it a lie? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} What? No! Of course not! Ha ha ha! Still, I guess you see us as friends more than we thought, huh? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Why do you assume that? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} Heh. I believe they're just glad you remembered your promise. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Oh. Huh. Don't worry. So long as I'm in this castle, I'll keep my promises. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} We believe you, Veronica. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Well, we might not be able to become your brothers, but we can still have fun! &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
|episode4Title=Second Thoughts&lt;br /&gt;
|episode4Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Veronica}} What a nice night. I should go for a walk. Hmm. I guess everyone is asleep. There's no one he... Ah! That looked like my brother! Wait! Come back!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} *pant* *pant* I can't find him anywhere... Were my eyes playing tricks? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} Might I have a moment of your time, Your Highness? &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;''The Black Raven - Harle''&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I know you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} You certainly do! I am Harle of the Dyrenell Empire, and I have come to escort you back with me. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Why? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Because I know you grow weary of living with that goody-goody prince! Deep down, you are both brutal and cold— and you know it. The Empire is a far more fitting place for you to be. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Not interested. Also, I'm tired. I'm going back now. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Well, that is a shame. But you really SHOULD reconsider, because I will use force if I must. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Tsk. What a tedious man you are. I guess I'll do this the hard way. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Imperial Soldiers}} Aaargh! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Uh oh. They're in a LOT of pain. You should probably go now. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Well, THIS is strange! I heard tale upon tale of the merciless princess of Embla who killed anyone she deemed her enemy. Heavens, you aren't HOLDING BACK, are you? If you consider us enemies, you really should try to kill us. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} You are the castle's enemy... but I won't kill you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Whyever not? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Because I promised the prince to be friends while I was here. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Aaaah ha ha ha! Friends? FRIENDS?! Simply unbelievable! Aaaah ha ha! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} What's so funny? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Hoooo! Friends! Oh, goodness me. Well, I mean, you don't honestly TRUST these people, do you? To you, they're just Heroes from another realm—and I've heard plenty about how such relationships usually end with you: They turn their backs and betray you! When the same thing happens this time, I imagine you will be so very sad. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} That's why you should come with us to the Empire. Shared goals won't betray you like &amp;quot;friends&amp;quot; will—a fact you know well. And if you decide to kill them before they manage to betray you, know that you have the Empire's complete and full support. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Veronicaaa! Where aaaaare you?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} That's the prince. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Bah. I see we are out of time. Very well, I will withdraw for today. But I look forward to an answer you won't regret when we next meet, Your Highness. Until then...farewell! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} *pant* There you are, Veronica! Thank goodness you're safe! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} What'd you wander off all alone for? If you wanted to take in the night air, we'd have been happy to tag along. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} What are you doing here? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} We couldn't find you anywhere and got worried. It's dangerous around here at night, you know? Still, you're okay, and that's what matters. So, um, you wanna keep walkin'? I could come with you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} The stars ARE lovely tonight. Still, if you want to go on night walks in the future, Veronica, please let one of us know so we don't worry. Okay? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} The future... Okay. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} It's settled. ...Now gimme your hand. I'm gonna make sure you don't get lost on the way back to the castle. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} No. I'm not a child. Trust... Shared goals... I don't know what to do... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Did you say something, Veronica? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} No. And stop holding out your hand. I'm fine on my own. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} ...What should I do? &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
|episode5Title=Keeping Promises&lt;br /&gt;
|episode5Content=&amp;lt;div align=&amp;quot;left&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{ST|Veronica}} Who's making all that noise at this time of night? I can't sleep! ...Hmm. No one there. Did they go outside? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} Princess Veronica! Quickly, come with me! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Alfonse? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} Someone wishes to speak with you. Let us make haste! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Stop tugging me! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} There he is. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Good evening, Your Highness. I've come to collect you, as agreed. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} You! I made no such arrangement. And Alfonse, why... Ah. You're Loki. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse?}} Oh, fiddlesticks! I should have known my disguise wouldn't last long against you. And here I was hoping your loathing for Alfonse would cloud your judgment. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Loki}} It seems you two have grown closer than I was expecting. How charming! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} We tried it your way, Loki—now we will try it mine. Come here, Princess, or I will be forced to... Hmm? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Hold it right there! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} What are you doing in this... Er, Princess Veronica? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Tsk! MUST I be thwarted at every turn by this pack of pathetic do-gooders?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Loki}} Ah, but this is actually the PERFECT time for them to arrive, because now we have both princes sitting in front of us! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Oh ho! Loki, you ARE a sly devil. Indeed, this is a wonderful opportunity to help Her Highness realize the truth of her feelings. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Get away from her! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} You must slaughter the both of them, Your Highness. Before they can betray you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Quiet. I have no intention of killing them at the moment. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Loki}} But killing them would be such FUN! Come now, let us see just a teeensy glimpse of your amazing power. Why hold back? Heed the whispers of your heart, dear. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} Kill. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Ah! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|???}} Askr must be destroyed! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Ugh... Urrghh... Aaaaagh! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Veronica, wait! What are you doing?! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} Aaaah ha ha! Oh, what naive fools you are! She's been secretly wanting to kill you before you abandon her—and she's wanted to do it this ENTIRE time! Oh, what cruelty from such a sweet, innocent soul! Now go, my darling! Slay them with your own two hands! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} Princess Veronica! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Brother... I... Promise... Aaargh! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Loki}} Don't stop NOW! Kill them already! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I promised...not to. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Loki}} Oh for heaven's sake! You might try to ignore your primal instinct for the sake of some sappy promise, but how long can you REALLY hold out? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} As long as I need to... &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} But WHY?!  &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Because I'm Veronica. Not a princess—just Veronica. So I'll keep my promise...for now. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Together}} Ah! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Loki}} *sigh* Well, this is a TERRIBLE bore! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Harle}} I couldn't agree more. I had thought her more wise than this, but I see we have been wasting our time. Let us be off. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Loki}} No matter what happens here, know that tragedy WILL occur when you finally return to your home world. And I look forward to being VEEERY entertained by it. Tee hee hee hee! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Heeeeey! Are you two okay? ...Whoa, what's up, Veronica? You're super pale! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} I will attend to her at once. But what happened to Harle and Loki? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Veronica drove them away. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Alfonse}} Thank you, Princess Veronica. Thank you for keeping your word. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} I didn't do anything. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} That's not true. You did great—and we were all happy to see that what we said left such a mark on you. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Cleo}} Such praise from the prince is quite exceptional. To celebrate, what would you like me to make for dinner? &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Luca}} Hey, I want in on this praising action! C'mere, kid! I'm gonna give you a Luca Head-Rub Special! &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Don't treat me like a child. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|The Prince}} Ha ha! Don't be too harsh on him. He's just trying to make you happy. I'm sure your brother would be happy if he was here, but we at least want to praise you in his stead. &lt;br /&gt;
{{ST|Veronica}} Stop trying to replace him! *sigh* You really are a strange bunch. I don't know how to deal with you. But...maybe it's okay once in a while. &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
