Dialogue

That should be the last of the fiends in this area. Hm? Is that...? Euden! Fancy meeting you here! Hi, Annelie. Ah, and you two as well. Hey there, Prince! Good day. What are you all up to? We're rehearsing for the circus's New Year's production! These two lovely ladies have agreed to put on a special performance. We're calling it "The Diva and the Dancer!" It's gonna be sooooo great! I'll be singing, and Felicia's gonna dance! I've never danced at a circus before, but I'm quite excited at the prospect. I've got some box seats with your name on 'em, prince! It's the least I can do after all you've done for us this year. Heh, thanks Annelie. I'll round up the others and we'll all come together. Excellent! We'll put on a show you'll remember for the rest of your days— and maybe even after! I can't wait. All right, ladies, back to it! We don't want to embarrass ourselves in front of all our friends, do we?! No way! Let us continue until our performance becomes second nature. Yeah! Those three seem to be enjoying themselves. It's hard to believe we all met each other just this year. Siren and Felicia were both so sad back then. But now... They walk beneath the light. Phantom? Have you been watching them practice as well? If Felicia's dancing, this guy's there, nine times outta ten. Borders on creepy, if you ask me. I merely wish to observe how she elects to live her life. ...Right. Not sure if that makes it any less creepy, but I guess I can kinda understand wanting to look after someone like that. All three of them have suffered in the past, but they also found the strength to persevere. The smiles they wear now are testament to that. Indeed... Euden! As this year ends, I pledge my strength to you anew, that we may protect and preserve those smiles. Count me in too. You've done us a real solid this year, letting us base our circus here and all. I won't forget that anytime soon. I'm grateful to have you both on the team. And I'd love to stay and reminisce some more, but there are still fiends to slay!
