Erinys Earnest Knight Face FC
Erinysフュリー

Annand! My sister! It really is you...

姉様...! マーニャ姉様!
本当に...マーニャ姉様なのですね!

Oh, Erinys. I am so glad that we
have another chance to speak...

Although you look much the same as
when I saw you last, your eyes shine
with determination.

Yes...you have matured. I am so
happy, Erinys.

フュリー...ああ...
まさかもう一度、貴方と
言葉を交わすことができるなんて。

姿こそ、私が最後に会ったときと
さほど変わっていませんけれど
その目から強い意志の力を感じます。

成長...したのですね。
うれしいですよ、フュリー。

Annand Knight-Defender Face FC
Annandマーニャ
Erinys Earnest Knight Face FC
Erinysフュリー

Indeed I have! None will call me
"crybaby" anymore.

I have strengthened the pride I carry
in my heart as a pegasus knight of
Silesse. I hope to one day match you.

Of course, I still have a long way to
go... Oh, I swore never to cry again,
but the tears...they won't stop!

はい...! もう私は
昔の泣き虫フュリーではありません。

シレジアの天馬騎士としての誇りを胸に
マーニャ姉様に少しでも
近づけるように......ううっ。

ま、まだまだ精進が足りませんね。
もう泣かないと誓ったのに...
涙が...止まりません。

To see two loving sisters reunited...
How wonderful! Your bond is so
strong.

Speaking of bonds, you two are
close—aren't you, Lex and Azelle?

ううっ、よかったですね!
マーニャさんとフュリーさんの
姉妹の絆をひしひしと感じます!

そういえば、
アゼルさんとレックスさんも
親友同士なんですよね?

Sharena Princess of Askr Face Smile
Sharenaシャロン
Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lexレックス

Sure, but no need for a teary-eyed
reunion here. We were fighting side
by side just before we arrived.

ま、俺とアゼルは一緒に行軍してる
最中にここへ呼ばれたから、
感動の再会ってわけじゃないがな。

The last thing I remember is falling
downward, toward Silesse... I could
feel the cold snow chill my skin.

After that, I have no memory. It was
as if I was drifting endlessly in water...

私が最後に覚えているのは...
シレジアの地に降り積もった
冷たい雪の感触。

それ以降、私の記憶はありません。
まるで、深く静かな水の中で
ずっとたゆたい続けていたような...。

Annand Knight-Defender Face FC
Annandマーニャ
Erinys Earnest Knight Face FC
Erinysフュリー

Annand...

マーニャ姉様...。

Seems some power wanted to see
you two reunited, to be sure. And
we're happy to help, Princess.

ま、アスク王国でこうして再会できたのも
なにかの縁だってことだろう。
俺たちも力を貸すぜ、シャロン王女。

Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lexレックス
Annand Knight-Defender Face FC
Annandマーニャ

If I can wield this sword once more,
as a Hero, and support your people...
I would be glad to do so.

ええ。
英雄として再びこの剣を振るえるなら...
民の支えとなれるならば、喜んで。

If I may join my sister in battle, I
have no objections.

I will raise my lance for Askr.

姉様とくつわを並べて戦えるなら
私も異存はありません。

アスク王国のため、
この槍を捧げましょう。

Erinys Earnest Knight Face FC

Sharena Princess of Askr Face Smile

Thank you, all! We welcome you
and your aid!

Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelleアゼル

...

Something on your mind?

Let me guess. You're thinking about
Lady Edain again.

Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lexレックス
Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelleアゼル

I am, yes, but...not only about her.

I'm also thinking about Velthomer,
and the future of Grannvale
as a whole.

There is much to consider.

No matter how much you think about
Jugdral, it's not gonna do a lot of
good from here.

The crisis in Askr has to come first,
for now.

Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lexレックス
Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelleアゼル

I completely agree.

Then what's really bothering you?
Don't try to hide it. We've been
friends far too long for that.

Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lexレックス
Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelleアゼル

It's...about what Annand said.

Her last memory was the feeling
of cold snow. Remember?

Yeah. Sounded like she was falling
in battle.

Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lexレックス
Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelleアゼル

After our work in Askr is finished,
we Heroes are meant to return to
where we came from.

If that was the moment Annand was
summoned... If she was about to lose
her life... What happens to her?

Good question...

Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lexレックス
Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelleアゼル

I am going to have a word with Erinys
about this.

I think she and Annand may have
come to the same realization.

Alfonse Prince of Askr Face FC
Alfonseアルフォンス

Hello, Erinys. Are you acclimating
well to life in Askr?

I'd say so. I was...rather confused
at first, but I believe I've begun to
open my heart to it.

Prince Alfonse... There is something
I'd like to ask you, if I may.

Erinys Earnest Knight Face FC
Erinysフュリー
Alfonse Prince of Askr Face FC
Alfonseアルフォンス

No need to be so formal. Ask away.
I'll respond as best I can.

When the Heroes have finished the
fight in Askr... In what condition
will they return home?

Erinys Earnest Knight Face FC
Erinysフュリー
Alfonse Prince of Askr Face FC
Alfonseアルフォンス

A difficult question. One to which
I lack a precise or detailed answer.

I have read, however, that the main
theory is they will be returned to the
time and place they came from.

What of those who had already lost
their lives when summoned?
What will become of them?

Erinys Earnest Knight Face FC
Erinysフュリー
Alfonse Prince of Askr Face Normal2
Alfonseアルフォンス

I'm sorry, Erinys. I wish I could be of
more help, but...I simply don't know.

I am the one who should apologize.
I did not mean to trouble you.

Even without a clear answer, I must
say I feel relieved merely for having
asked you.

We may never know the fate of one
who leaves this world under those
conditions, but...

So long as such individuals remain in
Askr, they can continue to live as
Heroes, can they not?

Erinys Earnest Knight Face FC
Erinysフュリー
Alfonse Prince of Askr Face FC
Alfonseアルフォンス

I see no reason why they could not...
Theoretically, at least...

That means, as long as we stay here,
my sister and I can continue spending
time together.

Prince Alfonse, I know this is much
to ask... But would you allow me to
remain here with Annand?

Please—I never wish to be parted
from my sister again!

Erinys Earnest Knight Face FC
Erinysフュリー
Annand Knight-Defender Face FC
Annandマーニャ

Erinys. I am moved beyond words
to hear you ask for this. Thank you.

Annand...

Erinys Earnest Knight Face FC
Erinysフュリー
Annand Knight-Defender Face FC
Annandマーニャ

But you have so much more to do.
As a Hero, it will be your duty
to return to Silesse one day.

Enduring Legacy - A

EnglishJapanese
Background image: 002 PlainForestInside
Erinys Earnest Knight Face FC
Erinysフュリー

But Annand... If I were to return...
I would never see you again.

Listen to me, Erinys.

By rights, from the moment I fell,
we should not have had the chance
to meet again except in dreams.

For us to be reunited as we are now,
fighting side by side, is nothing short
of a miracle.

Our time together in Askr is an
extraordinary blessing.

Annand Knight-Defender Face FC
Annandマーニャ
Erinys Earnest Knight Face FC
Erinysフュリー

Annand, I...

You were summoned here to be a
Hero. You were called on for much
more than merely seeing your sister.

Therefore I would ask you to think
first of your duty, both to Askr and to
our home...to which you must return.

Annand Knight-Defender Face FC
Annandマーニャ
Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelleアゼル

I must agree with Annand.

Most Heroes summoned to Askr have
important tasks to accomplish in their
home worlds when all is done here.

When the fight for peace in Askr is
finished, all of us will have to face
our respective destinies.

I've got unfinished business there
as well. That's for certain.

Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lexレックス
Annand Knight-Defender Face FC
Annandマーニャ

So once we have won peace for Askr,
Erinys... I must ask you to return
to seize your destiny as well.

Your fight will not end here.

I...understand. And I will do my duty.

When I do return, I will ensure your
legacy is remembered. And I will hold
you in my thoughts, always.

Erinys Earnest Knight Face FC
Erinysフュリー
Annand Knight-Defender Face FC
Annandマーニャ

Thank you, Erinys. So long as you are
living in Silesse, I know my memory
there will endure.

Each generation of Heroes passes its
deeds and intentions on to the next.
That is the way of the world.

In a manner of speaking, that is how
history allows us to move forward
into the future.

Alfonse Prince of Askr Face FC
Alfonseアルフォンス
Erinys Earnest Knight Face FC
Erinysフュリー

Yes. But while I remain here, I will
continue to fight alongside the great
pegasus knight Annand.

I will be your little sister for as long
as I am able, that I might grow into a
Hero worthy of inheriting your legacy.

So... Lord Arvis is with the Order
of Heroes now. I figured as much.

Yes. Princess Sharena says his
strength has been a great help
to them.

Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelle
Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lex

I'm sure he's an extremely powerful
ally. It's not hard to figure out why
【Summoner】 relies on him.

Arvis has changed. We both know
the path he chose. And here he is—
a Hero!

Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelle
Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lex

I hate to bring this up, but sooner or
later you're going to have to talk to
him about leaving House Velthomer.

Yes. I left to join Lord Sigurd so I
could aid Lady Edain. I expect that
act does not sit well with him.

Arvis is my half brother, but he raised
me as if he were my father. I respect
him and I honor him. And yet...

I feel an indescribable unease when
I am near him. It borders on...fear.

But I cannot hide forever. I must meet
with him.

Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelle
Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lex

If you like, I could come with you.

Lex, you are a good friend, but
I need to go alone. We must

It has been far too long, Brother.
I apologize for not visiting sooner.

Azelle! So you have been summoned
to Askr as well. It is good to have you.

This nation is threatened by calamity.
Its people need all the strength we
can muster. I hope you are ready.

Arvis Emperor of Flame Face FC
Arvis
Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelle

I am. But, Brother, I need to know
something. You came from a time just
beyond the events I lived, correct?

Princess Sharena mentioned your
fight with Lord Sigurd had...ended.

Yes. And it could be said that its
conclusion helped pave the way for
lasting peace across the continent.

Arvis Emperor of Flame Face FC
Arvis
Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelle

That is truly remarkable! I could
never aspire to something so bold.
I regret I could not aid you...

I must ask for your forgiveness. I let
my own desires get in the way of my
duties to House Velthomer.

I ran away—both from House
Velthomer and...from you.

...

Arvis Emperor of Flame Face FC
Arvis
Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelle

I felt that leaving House Velthomer
was the only way to save Lady Edain.
I was selfish.

I am ready to answer for my
inexcusable deeds. You need
only say the word.

Azelle... I believe that you may have
misunderstood the situation.

Arvis Emperor of Flame Face FC
Arvis
Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelle

Huh? Now I am confused. What is
there to misunderstand?

Azelle: Youthful Flame - A

Background image: 002 PlainForestInside
Arvis Emperor of Flame Face FC
Arvis

When I fight, my aim is to remake the
world. I wish to tear down divisions
and make things equitable for all.

But there is a heavy toll for such
grand ambition. The sacrifice
required is...immeasurable.

...

Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelle
Arvis Emperor of Flame Face FC
Arvis

These are my convictions, however,
and mine alone.

I believe each person must choose
their path, and that those choices—
those paths—must be respected.

One's thoughts or beliefs deserve to
remain sovereign. That is the world
I strive to build, no matter the cost.

No matter the cost...

Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelle
Arvis Emperor of Flame Face FC
Arvis

Azelle, your choice to leave House
Velthomer was rooted in what you
believed was right.

It is not my place to condemn your
choice, and so there is no need for
forgiveness.

Brother...

Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelle
Arvis Emperor of Flame Face FC
Arvis

However, remember this. Your
choices bind you to responsibility
for their consequences.

Before you choose, ask yourself:
What will you lose by that choice?
What will be gained by it?

Answering these questions is your
duty. Yours. It is not for you to place
their burden on others.

I...understand. I will move forward
and take full responsibility for my
choices. Th-thank you, Arvis...

Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelle
Arvis Emperor of Flame Face FC
Arvis

Excellent. Always choose a path you
believe in. Only then can you live
without regret.

Azelle: Youthful Flame - S

Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lex

That's how Lord Arvis sees it, huh?

After our meeting, I may be more
afraid of him than ever. I thought
I knew my brother, and yet...

Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelle
Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lex

You don't have to know him. He
talked about owning your choices,
right? That goes for him too.

He thinks he's found a path that'll
create the world he wants? Fine.
You don't have to follow him.

His path... Yes. I worry about the
scope of his ambition. It really
is boundless.

Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelle
Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lex

Yes, it is...

Well, look at the bright side—at least
you didn't get scolded for leaving
House Velthomer!

Truthfully, I might have preferred it if
he were angry at me for that.

Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelle
Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lex

Huh? Why?

He said he will respect any choice
I make, and that I must take
responsibility for it.

I believe that what he meant is that if
we find ourselves in opposition to
each other, he will show no mercy.

Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelle
Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lex

I see. Yeah, that is a bit worrisome.

No matter. I have already made my
choice. And I have tricked you into
coming along with me.

Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelle
Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lex

Ha! Don't sweat it. I'm here because
I want to be. We have to look out for
each other.

Thank you, Lex. I am very glad we
were summoned here together.

Now we must forge our path in Askr.
If that pits us against Arvis, so be it.
As he said, we must own our choices.

I am ready to take responsibility, no
matter the outcome.

There is a future here worth striving
for and it will be built, in part, from
our choices.

Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelle
Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lex

Count me in! And when the going gets
tough, I'll be there choosing to drag
us forward. Ha ha!

Heh! I know you will. Let us hope we
are both strong enough to see this
through.

It is indeed—Annand, Heavenly Knight

some time.

I have. And they certainly need the
help. This world seems to suffer one
misfortune after another.

It is an intense place to be, no doubt,

this would be entirely too much for
a feckless minstrel to bear.

For whatever it's worth, I'm sorry.

No, Lewyn. Hold your head up high.

Erinys told me everything. How, after

the fight.

How you passed on the desire for
peace to the next generation.

to know that is enough.

So, Annand. Gotten used to life

Thanks to you, the transition has
been pleasant and smooth. I have had
the comfort of familiar faces.

My duties, and even my training
regimen, are also quite similar to
what they were in Silesse.

I suppose the notion of wielding a
sword to defend one's home is
similar anywhere.

I admire your dedication. Some
Heroes start ditching their training
near as soon as they arrive.

They could stand to follow
your example.

At the same time...it might do you
some good to think of your life
in Askr as a bit of a fresh start.

What do you mean?

Heroes are called here to defend
Askr, sure, but there's more to life

to teach me the craft.

Annand is doing a wonderful job! I'm
sure she'll be a master of the trade
in no time at all.

Ah... I still have much to learn, but
it has kept me occupied in the lulls
between training and duty.

Annand Knight-Defender Face FC

Is that some of your work, there?
Let me see. Oooh, you're good!
That's way better than I could do.

I had not thought to try anything
like this before, but...I admit, it's
come rather naturally to me.

My hands seem to work instinctively.
My concentration has improved as
well. It may even help me in battle.

Annand Knight-Defender Face FC

Sometimes a shawl is just a shawl,
you know. It doesn't always need
to be about battle.

Of course. You're right. My mind
has a way of wandering to combat.

That makes sense. Hey, big changes
like this are hard.

You also went out to forage for
mushrooms with Frederick yesterday,
didn't you?

And the day before that, I heard you
were out dancing with Rinea.

Indeed. The Heroes have been very
kind about including me in their
various pursuits.

All of these endeavors have been
so new to me. But they have certainly
enriched my life of late.

Obviously, fighting for peace in Askr
is a high priority. But so is expanding
your horizons!

We still have some time before
training, so let's finish this shawl.
It's for your sister, right?

Forrest Fashion Forward Face FC

something for her. I'm sure
she's going to love it!

Prince Lewyn. A moment?

Of course. Hm... What’s that
you’ve got there?

Lewyn Guiding Breeze Face FC

It’s, ah...a gift. For you.

A headscarf... It’s beautiful, Annand.
Did you make this yourself?

It’s very well made. A lovely gift

Until recently, I’d spent every waking
moment fighting, and training to fight,
as a knight of Silesse.

For a long while, that was all I knew.

Since arriving in Askr, however, I have
discovered a life that exists just as
much off the battlefield as on it.

It’s a good change.

Lewyn Guiding Breeze Face FC
Lewyn
Annand Knight-Defender Face FC
Annand

This may sound trifling, but I realize
now that this ordinary life is a part
of what we fight to protect.

Spending time outside of battle
has helped contextualize that for me.

To have an everyday routine, to see
the days go by without the disruption
of bitter conflict...

That is indeed the prize. I think the
crusaders of legend risked their lives
fighting for exactly that.

Lewyn Guiding Breeze Face FC
Lewyn
Annand Knight-Defender Face FC

I feel the same way.

Had I stayed in Jugdral, however...
I believe I would have been a knight
and nothing more.

Now, in Askr, my life is full of all

I only hope that I will be able
to open myself up to them.

You will.

to fight to protect the people here,

for me as anywhere else.

Well...this secluded lake is as good
a spot as any. Time to get some
training in.

Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lex

Yah! Hah! Ha—augh! Oh, no.

There goes my axe... Right into
the lake.

Huh? A...whirlpool? Something’s
rising out of it!

Gahaha! Surprised ya, did I?!
The name’s Bartre!

Found this Stout Tomahawk in the
lake just now. This Arthur's Axe
too. Either of these fine pieces yours?

importantly, what were you doing
in the lake?

Gahaha! That’s right! If you wanna

most primal CHOP of all!

That’s why we axe masters are so
good in aquatic fights. We learn early
to CHOP the water!

Yah! Hah! Yaaa—oh no. Not again...

Really starting to see how all these
axes wind up in the lake.

Huh? What’s this singing? Beautiful...
Almost ethereal... But where’s it
coming from?!

Ah!

Who is it? Who’s there?!

My name is Azura. It seems you’ve
found my secluded rehearsal spot.

Did you happen to lose this Urðr to
the lake? Or perhaps this Aymr?

Azura Lady of Ballads Face FC

Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lex

No... I did lose an axe, but it was just
a simple training weapon... Iron...

An honest man. Good. You’ve passed
the test.

We are the Hatchet Aspirational
Committee of Knowledge. In secret,
we elevate the axe’s true worth.

Azura Lady of Ballads Face FC

HACK sees the axe as a sophisticated
tool—the ideal implement to express
the power of one’s convictions.

This can’t be happening.

Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lex
Edelgard The Future Face FC
Edelgard

One cannot simply wave an axe
around with all one’s might and
expect significant results.

It must be wielded thoughtfully. With
discipline and determination. Only
then will it cleave through hardship.

HACK was formed to provide such
scholars of the axe a community
in which to support one another.

More than any other weapon, the axe
possesses the strength to carve away
all threats to one’s liege lord.

We can bring this wisdom to light not
with shouting from the rooftops, but
with solemn and quiet purpose.

Frederick Polite Knight Face FC
Frederick
Lex Young Blade Face FC

I like my axe well enough, but...is
there really a point to all that?

your full potential.

answer when next we meet.
Farewell, for now.

Ugh... I’m short an axe again...

CHOP...and now HACK?

Askr certainly does seem to have
some interesting and complex

They’re both kind of questionable.

So, you have no intentions of joining
either of them?

Honestly, I’m still baffled by it all.

Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lex
Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelle

These thin arms of mine have never
been up to the task of learning the
axe, but...

I must admit, I am surprised to see
such a simple weapon have such
a complex following in Askr.

I suppose it must simply come down
to cultural differences.

No, I don’t think this is a matter
of Askr’s culture.

From what they said, I think there’s
something else going on.

Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lex
Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelle

Well, it’s healthy to be skeptical.
But perhaps working alongside these
Heroes could be good for you.

You may be a descendant of the
legendary axe warrior Nál, but you
can still benefit from others’ help.

Not sure being Nál's descendent
figures into it. But it’s true I am
always looking to get stronger.

Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lex
Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC

Then this is a good opportunity, not

So, which of the two did you join?

Plenty of Heroes not involved
with any of this stuff, it turns out.

Lex Young Blade Face FC

Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelle

That is a shame. It did seem like a
good opportunity to find some
quality training partners, at least.

I’ll be fine training on my own.

That’s how I’ve always done it.
That, and real battle.

More importantly, getting swept up in
something like that would mean I
might not be here if you needed me.

Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lex
Azelle Youthful Flame Face FC
Azelle

Ah... You worry too much.

But thank you. It is reassuring to
know I can truly depend on a friend
like you.

That said, it’s time I got to training.

Oh, but before that, I need to see
Commander Anna about a new axe...

Lex Young Blade Face FC
Lex
Azura Lady of Ballads Face FC
Azura

We have failed to persuade Lex to
join us. How unfortunate... He had
such promise.

There are plenty of axe users out
there. We’ll have other opportunities.

???
Azura Lady of Ballads Face FC
Azura

Of course. And we will be selective.
HACK will not be outdone by CHOP’s
brute-force approach.

Ours will be the graceful axe that
reverberates throughout Askr, like
the ocean’s gray waves...

Heheh... First CHOP, and now HACK.
Nothing wrong with a little friendly
competition, is there?

I’m sure each will push the other
to get better and better.

Anna Commander Face FC
Anna

And as long as axes are being put to
frequent use, my wares will be in
high demand. Everybody wins.

You seem pleased with yourself,

well, I take it?

Gah! Lex! How long have you been
standing there?!

Long enough to hear some of
whatever that was about.

Look, I just came to get an axe
to replace the one I lost in a lake.

Of course, of course. And you only

all. Nothing to worry about...heheh...

Yes. That is the name my parents

it is too much to take in all at once.

I have heard that those from Ylisse,

in their worlds too, but...

It certainly is a different thing to be
put in that position yourself.

If Ced truly is my son... I cannot
help but yearn to know who his
father is.

At the same time, I fear by learning it
I might somehow be tampering
with my fate.

Forgive me, Princess Fjorm. It was

No, no, not at all! I would love to
help. Unfortunately, I’m just not

I’d at least be curious if it was
someone I’ve already met or not.

The Ced you met here, the Hero,
he’s not from the same world as you.

He’s just one possibility. He might be

I suppose you have a point...

Erinys Earnest Knight Face FC
Erinys
Silvia Traveling Dancer Face FC
Silvia

Yeah. So no matter who his father
is, your future isn’t decided yet.

And neither is mine, understand?
So even if he’s Prince Lewyn’s son,
so what? It...doesn’t matter.

It wouldn’t mean I’d have to give up
on Prince Lewyn, because nothing’s
set in stone for either of us.

You’re absolutely right. Thank you,
Silvia. That makes me feel...a great
deal better.

I am not going to ask Ced who his
father is. Nor will I tie my fate to it.

If love and family are in my future,
they will come in their own time.
And they will be my choice.

That is the only way I will ever be
satisfied with the result.
