Alear

C Bond:

Alear: Thank you for the hope you showed me back then. If not for you, I might have given up.

Lucina: I only gave you a small push. You’ll be carving your own future for yourself.

B Bond:

Alear: I worry sometimes if we’re really capable of winning this war.

Lucina: I know things can seem bleak. But as long as you hold out hope, you can drive the dark away.

A Bond:

Lucina: Long ago, I was driven from my home. But I’d have died if I stayed. All would have been lost.

Alear: I see what you mean. Sometimes you have to withdraw… But did you win in the end?

Lucina: Yes. I made a new future, and you can too. So never give up until your last breath.

Alear: Understood. Then no matter how hard things get, I’ll believe that they’ll turn out for the best.

Vander

C Bond:

Lucina: I’ve heard you’re a knitting expert. I’m terrible with any delicate work, so consider me envious.

Vander: Heh. Most are surprised that a man as large as I is capable of something so…delicate.

B Bond:

Lucina: With knitting, you can make sweaters. Like, say, one with a big picture of your face.

Vander: I… I mean… Yes. But I am not so sure who would willingly wear such a garment.

A Bond:

Lucina: Watching you knit, I am reminded of my mother knitting when I was little.

Vander: Oh? She must have been a spectacular woman. By the by, the sweater you asked for…

Vander: The one adorned with my visage? It is finished. Who shall I give it to?

Lucina: Oh, splendid! I imagine the Divine Dragon will love it. I can’t think of a better gift!

Clanne

C Bond:

Clanne: Is it true you’re Lord Marth’s blood relative? I didn’t know Emblems could be related.

Lucina: Yes, I am his descendant. So I try to show that I’m worthy of that lineage.

B Bond:

Clanne: I’m like you and Lord Marth! Us “Stewards of the Dragon” serve generation after generation.

Lucina: That means your ancestors must have fought beside the Divine Dragon a thousand years ago.

A Bond:

Clanne: I’ve been thinking about family trees and how, even after I’m gone, my line will go on and on.

Lucina: The stewards will too. You’ll be part of their history, and they’ll strive to be as heroic as you.

Lucina: Much as I tried to become someone King Marth would be proud of.

Clanne: You’ve inspired me, Lady Lucina. I’m going to show all the future stewards how to be a hero.

Framme

C Bond:

Framme: Lady Lucina! Please, let me help you out. Chores, errands─leave ’em all to m─ AAH!

Lucina: Framme?! Are you all right? You got so excited you fell right over!

B Bond:

Framme: Every time I try to help out, I get so energized I mess things up. It’s super frustrating.

Lucina: Don’t worry, we all make mistakes. What matters most is that you don’t get hurt.

A Bond:

Framme: I really, really wish I could be more like you, Lady Lucina. You’re so mature and in control.

Lucina: Not really. I’ve been in trouble a few times after accidentally breaking things while training.

Lucina: And, Framme, your enthusiasm is part of your charm. I hope that never changes.

Framme: I’m really glad to hear that, Lady Lucina. If you like that I’m peppy, then peppy I’ll always be!

Alfred

C Bond:

Lucina: You are the prince of Firene, yes? My ring was held by your nation 1,000 years ago.

Alfred: Really?! You were in Firene back then? Huh. Well, I’m sure glad to have you back.

B Bond:

Alfred: If you were Firene’s ring 1,000 years ago, how come you were moved to a different country?

Lucina: Lumera wished it so. Her intent is unknown to me. Still, she foresaw some reason for a change.

A Bond:

Alfred: You knew the Firene royals 1,000 years ago. Were my ancestors…strong?

Lucina: They were strong indeed. But at that time… their strength could not save them.

Lucina: I will not allow that outcome a second time. You are all under my protection.

Alfred: I won’t make you go through that a second time either. We’ll stay standing to the bitter end!

Etie

C Bond:

Etie: You’re staring pretty hard at that flower. What’s up?

Lucina: They very rarely bloomed in the world I grew up in. This is a novel sight to me.

B Bond:

Etie: It sounds like you lived through some pretty hard times. Is that how you got so toned?

Lucina: I hadn’t thought too much about it, but that’s certainly possible.

A Bond:

Etie: Hey, Lucina. Is there anything you wish you could do once this war is over?

Lucina: Hmm. Before I sleep in the ring once more, I’d like to visit someplace I’ve never seen.

Lucina: I’d also like to see as many flowers as possible. I like them. They represent peace to me.

Etie: Then I’ll show you around my hometown! If you like flowers, you’re gonna love it there.

Boucheron

C Bond:

Lucina: Tell me, what does one do all day to attain musculature like yours?

Boucheron: Well, if you’re me, you read and fish. Is that the answer you were looking for?

B Bond:

Lucina: It never occurred to me that reading and fishing could result in the perfect body.

Boucheron: Those are just my hobbies. The muscle comes naturally for someone with my constitution.

A Bond:

Boucheron: So even Emblems work out. But do you really need to do it all the time?

Lucina: I must always strive for more. My body must be perfectly honed if I’m to save the world.

Boucheron: Doing too much will wear you down, not build you up. Hm, how about we take a book break?

Lucina: If that is what you advise, then very well. Would you read to me from one of your favorites?

Céline

C Bond:

Céline: Good day, Lucina. Thank you for your help in battle earlier. Have you time to chat today?

Lucina: Of course. Knowing one’s allies can be useful in combat. So tell me all about yourself.

B Bond:

Céline: The more I hear of the ruined world of Ylisse, the more I realize how sheltered I’ve been.

Lucina: I disagree. You fight as hard as anyone. Firene will never meet the same fate as my home.

A Bond:

Céline: What do you think we ought to do to achieve true peace, Lucina?

Lucina: Explore peaceful ways of solving problems, to begin with. Violence should be a last resort.

Lucina: I’m only one person, but I’ll wield my sword when necessary to protect my loved ones.

Céline: On that score, we are of one mind. Let us keep working toward peace, however we must.

Chloé

C Bond:

Chloé: Hey, Lucina. If you have time, do you want to come to the market with me?

Lucina: That sounds delightful. I’m so very interested in seeing the settlements of this world.

B Bond:

Lucina: I don’t recognize any of the foods you eat, Chloé. Are they common in your world?

Chloé: The stuff I just bought is folk food, which is a little off the beaten path. I love it, though!

A Bond:

Lucina: The presence of so many different foods proves that this world hasn’t yielded to despair.

Chloé: I agree! Still, more and more of those stalls close down every day.

Lucina: We’ll put a stop to that. Let us return light to this world, so that they may reopen once more.

Chloé: And so all the best foods are back on the menu, right? That’s something worth fighting for!

Louis

C Bond:

Louis: You seem to be well-liked by all, Lucina. I think that’s simply splendid.

Lucina: Uh…is that unusual? I’m sure I have the normal amount of friends. No more than anyone else.

B Bond:

Louis: Indulge me…would you rather treat someone as a big sister or be treated as such?

Lucina: I’d feel a bit uncomfortable being treated that way. But it would be nice to have a sister figure.

A Bond:

Lucina: Louis, what are you getting at with all these questions you’ve been asking?

Louis: Must I be “getting at” anything? I have a natural curiosity about the way people socialize.

Lucina: So you like people-watching. I see. But why the intense interest in me particularly?

Louis: Why would I not be? Your circumstances are so unique that I find myself utterly captivated.

Yunaka

C Bond:

Yunaka: Your sword looks an awful lot like Marth’s, Lucina. Is it actually the same blade?

Lucina: Good eye. The guard and pommel have been replaced, but it’s otherwise the same sword.

B Bond:

Yunaka: I can’t get over what a privilege it is just to lay eyes on a legendary weapon like Falchion.

Lucina: Would you believe me if I told you its name actually used to be Pointy Demonspanker?

A Bond:

Yunaka: Pointy Demonspanker? Was Falchion really called that?!

Lucina: Yes─by me. A friend of mine repaired the weapon, and in his honor I gave it a new name.

Lucina: He was less impressed than I’d imagined he would be. I ended up changing it back.

Yunaka: Makes for a great story, though. Now I wanna give my own weapons fancy names!

Alcryst

C Bond:

Lucina: Your fighting style is a wonder to behold, Alcryst. Where did you learn your technique?

Alcryst: Well, my father forced a strict training regimen onto me as a child. It’s…not a fun story.

B Bond:

Lucina: I was trained by my own father, just like you, Alcryst. Seems we have that in common!

Alcryst: I’m not worthy of such a favorable comparison, but I would like to hear more about your father.

A Bond:

Alcryst: There are so many wonderful people among our ranks. I have no right to stand beside all of you.

Lucina: That’s not true, Alcryst. I’d be struggling if it weren’t for you.

Lucina: I still have so much to learn, so much growing to do. I hope you’ll keep fighting by my side.

Alcryst: That seems impossible… But if you truly need my help, I’ll lend you every bit of my strength.

Citrinne

C Bond:

Citrinne: You’re really strong, aren’t you, Lucina? I must admit, I’m actually quite envious of you.

Lucina: There’s no need for envy, Citrinne. Anyone can grow stronger with the right kind of training.

B Bond:

Citrinne: Lucina, would you mind if I watched you train? I’d love to learn from you, if that’s possible.

Lucina: I wouldn’t mind at all. If my efforts can help you grow, then observe as much as you like.

A Bond:

Citrinne: I know what I need to do, but I can’t get my body to obey. I may be weak forever…

Lucina: You won’t become strong overnight…but you are stronger today than you were yesterday.

Lucina: Don’t give up, Citrinne. You’ll keep growing, bit by bit, day by day, until you reach your goals.

Citrinne: My goals feel so far away…but you’re right. I will soldier on, Lucina─with you as my guide!

Lapis

C Bond:

Lucina: Why are you carrying so many tools, Lapis? Are you on your way to fix something?

Lapis: I’m patching a wall. Someone knocked a huge hole into it. Who could have been so careless?!

B Bond:

Lapis: I grow so attached to things I make by hand… but that just means I’m more careful with ’em.

Lucina: Hmm… A friend I once knew told me that giving tools their own names can have a similar effect.

A Bond:

Lapis: Lucina, you came from a harsh world, right? I was wondering…what did you eat to survive?

Lucina: We had rationed food, so we ate that for a time. Hunting was also an option. We even ate bears.

Lapis: Really?! I do that too! Sometimes I─ Oh, wait. Sorry. That must have been hard. I… I didn’t…

Lucina: It’s OK, Lapis. I’m happy something like that can bring us closer together. Tell me more.

Diamant

C Bond:

Diamant: You were a destined monarch like me, Lucina. I’d love to hear your perspective on ruling.

Lucina: Of course. I’ve never actually ruled a kingdom, but I would be happy to compare philosophies.

B Bond:

Diamant: It’s incredible that you managed to keep fighting as your country fell to ruin. I’m not sure I could.

Lucina: I’ve seen how fierce you can become, Diamant. I know you would fight bravely till the very end.

A Bond:

Diamant: If Brodia’s remaining forces fall, the kingdom could be destroyed. I can’t bear that thought.

Lucina: I know how hard it is to leave soldiers behind. For their sake, we must claim a swift victory.

Lucina: Brodia will not fall into ruin, Diamant. Never will you suffer the same anguish that I did.

Diamant: Thank you, Lucina. That’s reassuring. You may never claim a throne…but you are a great leader.

Amber

C Bond:

Lucina: I was told that you’re a celebrated hero, Amber. May I hear about some of your adventures?

Amber: Sure! I’ll tell you my favorite legends…right after I get through my coolest alpaca stories.

B Bond:

Amber: Hey, Lucina! Get a load of these new clothes! Isn’t this the best getup ever?

Lucina: The alpaca cross-stitched into the center is so large… I love it! Your fashion is truly inspiring!

A Bond:

Amber: Hey, Lucina! I’m heading out to find a legendary weapon. Wanna come?

Lucina: A legendary weapon?! If we had something like that, we could turn the tide of this terrible war.

Lucina: I imagine the quest ahead will be most challenging. What’s your plan?

Amber: Well, I know hundreds of legends. If we look for all of them, we’re sure to find one that’s real!

Jade

C Bond:

Lucina: I’ve heard you write very funny novels, Jade. May I read some of them?

Jade: Of course, Lucina. I’m not sure they’ll be your kind of humor…but I hope you enjoy them.

B Bond:

Lucina: Your novel was so funny, Jade! When the main character had to leave home…I was in stitches!

Jade: That was supposed to be an emotional moment. You must have a, uh, unique sense of humor.

A Bond:

Jade: Have you finished the rest of my novel, Lucina? I’m curious…which parts made you laugh?

Lucina: Oh, I laughed at so many parts! There was that one scene, and that other one…and the ending!

Jade: You laughed at the ending? Really? This is… valuable feedback. I may run some edits by you.

Lucina: Yes, please! You’re a fantastic writer, Jade. I’ll be looking forward to more!

Ivy

C Bond:

Lucina: Thanks to you, I can continue to serve the Divine Dragon. I want you to know I’m grateful.

Ivy: I did not do it for thanks. I did it because it was right.

B Bond:

Lucina: My friend had a wyvern like yours─she had a very special name. He loved her dearly.

Ivy: I never thought to give mine a name. Do you have any suggestions?

A Bond:

Ivy: I felt prepared for it at the time, but the loss of my father has been a stubborn wound.

Lucina: I know the feeling all too well. If you want to talk about it, please know I’m here.

Ivy: Thank you. Would you mind telling me of your father? It might help to hear your experience.

Lucina: I don’t think I’m over the loss either─even now. But if it’s useful, I’ll gladly tell you everything.

Kagetsu

C Bond:

Kagetsu: Your skill is just what I would expect of an Emblem. Will you face me in mock combat?

Lucina: I’ve been admiring your swordplay as well. I’d be delighted to spar with you.

B Bond:

Lucina: All your training has paid off, Kagetsu. You were spectacular in that last battle.

Kagetsu: I am glad to hear you say so─and even more glad we are such good friends!

A Bond:

Lucina: What drives you to grow stronger, Kagetsu?

Kagetsu: It is very simple. If I am to climb this mountain we call life, I wish to see it from its peak.

Lucina: A noble goal. That simple determination might be the key to your success.

Kagetsu: And you, my friend and rival, are one step along my path to greatness! Prepare to be surpassed!

Zelkov

C Bond:

Zelkov: It seems we share a certain *preoccupation,* Emblem Lucina. Idleness makes you restless.

Lucina: I’ve never thought of it quite like that before, but yes, I do think you’re right.

B Bond:

Zelkov: It must be *difficult* for you to fight boredom without the ability to handle corporeal objects.

Lucina: I wouldn’t say that. Listening to people talk offers me a good deal of entertainment.

A Bond:

Zelkov: I see it now. You are the type to ignore your *own* pain for the benefit of friends and allies.

Lucina: I don’t think of it in those terms. I just want to be useful to the people I care about.

Zelkov: It was intended as a *compliment.* The way you live is impossible for me, so I find it impressive.

Lucina: It’s not impossible at all, Zelkov. You’re fighting for a better world the same way I am.

Fogado

C Bond:

Lucina: So, you’re not just a prince─you lead a militia too. My father did as well, you know.

Fogado: Your pops led a group like my Sentinels? What a great guy! I’d love to throw a party for him.

B Bond:

Fogado: We still haven’t thrown a proper welcome party for you, have we? We’ve gotta get on that.

Lucina: That’s very nice of you, Fogado. I would love to take part in such a joyous social gathering.

A Bond:

Fogado: I see you’re finally starting to relax, Lucina. It’s a good look on you.

Lucina: I am? I wasn’t aware that my behavior had changed.

Fogado: Yeah, you were pretty guarded at first. But now, that charming side of yours is starting to show.

Lucina: I have you to thank for that. Your friendship has helped me feel like I can truly be myself.

Pandreo

C Bond:

Lucina: You know, Pandreo, I happen to be friends with another rather un-priest-like priest.

Pandreo: You’re friends with an unusual priest like me? No way! You’ve got to tell me all about him.

B Bond:

Lucina: What a unique training regimen you have. The violent jumping and odd lurching moves…

Pandreo: Oh, I was actually…dancing. But since you were so impressed, let’s just call it training, OK?

A Bond:

Lucina: You’ve had to leave your church unattended for a long time now. Does that worry you?

Pandreo: I don’t have a choice, Lucina. I have to focus on this fight. If the world dies, faith dies with it.

Lucina: I see. In my world, near the end, shows of faith were rare. And for some, were abandoned.

Pandreo: Please, let me say a prayer for your world. May the souls that were lost find peace at last.

Bunet

C Bond:

Bunet: Lucina, the legendary sword you wield… I wonder, what does it taste like?

Lucina: Falchion is not an ingredient in a recipe! But… now that you ask, I can’t help but wonder too.

B Bond:

Bunet: Do you enjoy watching me prepare food, Lucina?

Lucina: I do. I’ve learned a lot from watching how you wield your chef’s knife, Bunet.

A Bond:

Lucina: After observing your knife skills, my sword skills have gotten a fair bit sharper, Bunet.

Bunet: I’m pleased to hear that, especially since the dish I’ve been working on was inspired by you.

Bunet: My aim is to make it just as enjoyable to gaze upon at as it is to taste.

Lucina: I’m so happy I was able to inspire you. I look forward to enjoying this feast for the eyes.

Timerra

C Bond:

Timerra: I couldn’t help but notice your left eye, Lucina. That design is so mysterious and super pretty.

Lucina: And your eyes have such a majestic shimmer. Is that a trait that runs in the royal family?

B Bond:

Timerra: I got my eyes from my mother. It’s a sign that I have what it takes to be queen of Solm one day.

Lucina: The Brand in my eye runs in my family as well. I’m so pleased our royal families share this.

A Bond:

Lucina: Does the royal family of Solm have other unique characteristics beyond the sparkling eyes?

Timerra: No, we’re pretty normal, really. In fact, not everyone in our family even gets the cool eyes.

Lucina: Well, with or without a royal mark, being part of a ruling family can be a burden to bear.

Timerra: True, but I like our eyes and what they stand for. And, hey, we can bear any burden together.

Panette

C Bond:

Lucina: Panette, I must apologize for earlier. It was silly of me to scream so loudly at the sight of a bug.

Panette: Not to worry. No doubt you were weary from battle. Besides, it was cute to see you flustered.

B Bond:

Lucina: Eeeek! It’s a giant bug! I─ I don’t know what to do!

Panette: Oh now, calm yourself, Lucina. I shall drive it away for you.

A Bond:

Lucina: Panette, please, you must teach me how to conquer my fear of bugs. It’s so embarrassing.

Panette: There’s nothing to be embarrassed about. Revealing a bit of weakness can be charming.

Panette: Should a bug appear again, I will simply take care of it for you. That way you can rest easy.

Lucina: Thank you, Panette. That is reassuring. Next time I see a bug, I’m hiding behind you.

Merrin

C Bond:

Merrin: Lady Lucina, I understand you used to fight wearing a mask. I might try wearing one myself.

Lucina: I only wore one to hide my identity. But I do think a mask would look dashing on you, Merrin.

B Bond:

Merrin: Your fight style is so cool. It makes me want to come up with an epic new move of my own.

Lucina: I’m not sure you need a new move, but if you do, you should call it the “Swordy Poke-Poke”!

A Bond:

Merrin: The more we fight beside each other, the more I see how cool you are. I─ I want to be like you!

Lucina: Oh, if you only knew how I see you. You carry yourself with such confidence. I truly envy that.

Merrin: You do?! What a nice thing to say. I guess we’ve got a mutual-admiration thing going on here.

Lucina: I guess we do. I hope we consider each other not just allies but friends, now and forever.

Hortensia

C Bond:

Hortensia: I’m sorry for using your ring to fight for the wrong side, Lucina. Can I make it up to you?

Lucina: No need for that. As far as I’m concerned, you’ve done more than enough already.

B Bond:

Hortensia: There must be something I can do for you. Whatever it is, just name it.

Lucina: I’m fine. I have all I need. But if you are worried, I sincerely hope you’ll tell me.

A Bond:

Lucina: You seem out of sorts, Hortensia. What’s on your mind?

Hortensia: I want to be friends with you, but I don’t know how. Can you just tell me what I have to do?

Lucina: Have we not been friends all this time? That would be news to me.

Hortensia: Really? Oh, that’s such a relief. Why didn’t you say so sooner?

Seadall

C Bond:

Seadall: I couldn’t help but notice the look on your face while you watched me dance.

Lucina: Your dance looks so incredibly different from dances in my world. It was entrancing to watch.

B Bond:

Seadall: As someone new to our world’s art and culture, I wonder, what do you think of my dancing?

Lucina: I don’t know much about dance, but I do know that when you perform, I am filled with courage.

A Bond:

Seadall: There’s something I have to say to you, Lucina. And that is, thank you.

Lucina: I’m not sure what I’ve done to earn such heartfelt gratitude, Seadall.

Seadall: Telling me that my dancing gives you courage… It meant so much to me. It’s all I ever hope for.

Lucina: I told you the truth, Seadall. Your dance has the power to fill anyone from any world with hope.

Rosado

C Bond:

Lucina: Your wyvern’s adorable, Rosado. You know what would really top off her look?

Rosado: Please, stop suggesting the bear hat.

B Bond:

Rosado: I hate war. Everyone’s so caught up in fighting that they don’t even care about what’s cute.

Lucina: All the more reason to win peace as quickly as we can.

A Bond:

Rosado: You’re interested in being cute, right, Lucina?

Lucina: I have never given it too much thought, but I don’t see why I would reject the notion.

Rosado: Great! I’m always striving to be the cutest, so let’s put our heads together. We can trade tips!

Lucina: Sounds like a fine idea to me.

Goldmary

C Bond:

Goldmary: However charming I may be, Lucina, I still find myself getting nervous around you.

Lucina: I don’t see why, but I’m sure you’ll move past it as we get to know each other.

B Bond:

Goldmary: I may be adorable, but you clearly have something that I don’t. A kind of panache.

Lucina: Do I? Well, to be frank, sometimes I wish I had your superb elegance.

A Bond:

Lucina: I’ve been watching you as we fight together. I think you’ve been developing some panache.

Goldmary: You think so? I’m so glad. Actually, I’ve noticed lately that you can be quite elegant, yourself.

Goldmary: Perhaps you and I have been rubbing off on each other. We do make a fine team.

Lucina: Haha, we do. Everyone, I’m very sorry if Goldmary and I are too much for you to handle.

Lindon

C Bond:

Lucina: That’s a delicious-looking dessert. Did you make it, Lindon?

Lindon: It was one of my experiments, yes. But don’t worry─the taste is world-class.

B Bond:

Lindon: Would you tell me more about your world today, Lucina?

Lucina: Your curiosity seems endless, Lindon. I hope some of it rubs off on me.

A Bond:

Lindon: How were you able to withstand living in such a desperate, hopeless world, Lucina?

Lucina: In all honesty, even with my stubbornness and pride, I’d have succumbed without my allies.

Lindon: So that’s where you drew your strength from. Tighter bonds may be what this world needs.

Lucina: Then it’s time we forged them for ourselves. Once we have that, nothing is impossible.

Saphir

C Bond:

Saphir: Wouldn’t know it to look at you, Lucina, but you fight with the intensity of a hardened veteran.

Lucina: Indeed. I’ve seen more harrowing battles than I care to think about.

B Bond:

Saphir: You’re one of the best fighters I’ve ever seen. I’d love to go toe-to-toe with you someday.

Lucina: Once we’re done with all the real fighting, I’ll indulge you in a proper bout.

A Bond:

Saphir: Let’s cancel that bout we spoke of, Lucina. I’ve changed my mind.

Lucina: Fine by me. May I ask why?

Saphir: You obviously take no pleasure in battle. It was selfish of me to ask.

Lucina: I appreciate that, Saphir. Here’s an idea─how about you take me fishing instead?

Veyle

C Bond:

Veyle: Didn’t a Fell Dragon ravage your world? You must hate it when I’m around.

Lucina: Not at all. You look different. You act different. You are your own dragon, Veyle.

B Bond:

Veyle: I know Papa is doing awful things. Still, I just can’t bring myself to hate him completely.

Lucina: I understand, Veyle. The father-child bond is so powerful. Do not worry, we’ll stop him together.

A Bond:

Veyle: Lucina, what was your father like?

Lucina: He was strong, wise, and fair. More than anything, he treasured his bond with his allies.

Veyle: He sounds so…good. My Papa was always alone, always staring at some far-off place…

Lucina: He may not have been there for you, Veyle, but I am here and I will always support you. I swear.

Mauvier

C Bond:

Mauvier: I do not require your concern. Lady Veyle needs you more.

Lucina: I’m keeping an eye on Veyle, but my worries are equal for you, Mauvier.

B Bond:

Mauvier: Your presence has caused Lady Veyle to smile more. Thank you.

Lucina: There’s no reason to thank me. Veyle’s smile is your doing, Mauvier.

A Bond:

Mauvier: Who I was, what I did… I do not regret those actions so much as the actions I did not take.

Mauvier: Were I more diligent in my efforts as friend and protector, might Lady Veyle have been happier?

Lucina: The past is out of reach for most. Yet the future can be changed for any of us. You included.

Lucina: I’m happy to help. From now on, let’s ask ourselves what would bring Veyle happiness.

Anna

C Bond:

Anna: Big sale on again today! Bring your wallets and purses, everyone!

Lucina: Anna? You traveled to this world too?

B Bond:

Lucina: It’s inspiring how you manage to stay cheerful despite being separated from your family.

Anna: Oh, I’m way too mature to let a little thing like that get me down.

A Bond:

Lucina: My goodness! These shirts! They have your face on them! That is INCREDIBLE!

Anna: You think so? The way they turned out, I was on the fence about whether to sell them at all.

Lucina: You have to sell them! I’d buy 10!

Anna: Well, if you like ’em, that settles it! I’ll print up hundreds and make a killing!

Jean

C Bond:

Jean: Thanks for pulling me out of hot water earlier!

Lucina: It worked out that way this time, that’s all. Next time, I might rely on you to save me.

B Bond:

Lucina: You really outdid yourself in the battle today. Your presence was invaluable.

Jean: Aw, Lucina, you’ll make me blush. But I did feel like I was contributing a little more.

A Bond:

Jean: I’m so tired. I can’t even lift a finger anymore.

Lucina: You did outstanding today, Jean. But don’t work yourself to the bone.

Lucina: I understand wanting to save as many as you can, but if we lose you, all that stops.

Jean: You’re right. I’ll be careful not to let myself end up as the next one in a sickbed.

Nel

C Bond:

Nel: I hear you have a history with Fell Dragons. Do not feel obligated to socialize with me.

Lucina: I don’t feel obligated, Nel. I’d like to get to know you as a person, not just as a Fell Dragon.

B Bond:

Lucina: Nel! As a token of our friendship, I’ve designed some clothing for you. Vander’s handiwork!

Nel: A large spicy pepper embroidered on the front. I suppose it does represent my preferences.

A Bond:

Nel: Lucina, I am not skilled in handicrafts, but I made you this as a thank-you for your gift.

Lucina: You embroidered our faces on a banner?! With “We Are Friends” over it?! This is incredible!

Lucina: Thank you so much! I will treasure this moment and your friendship for all time.

Nel: I am glad to see that we have similar aesthetic taste. And I intend to do the same.

Rafal

C Bond:

Lucina: Rafal, is it my imagination, or are you avoiding me? I thought we were a team after that battle.

Rafal: Your home was destroyed by a Fell Dragon. I, too, am a destroyer. You should avoid me.

B Bond:

Rafal: Did I not tell you to avoid me outside of battle? Why would you wish to speak to a Fell Dragon?

Lucina: The past is the past. I have no reason to hate you.

A Bond:

Rafal: You really are quite persistent. I suppose it is commendable, albeit annoying.

Lucina: Was that a compliment? We’re making progress! I’d like to know more about the real you.

Lucina: My father’s closest confidant was a vessel for a Fell Dragon. Bonds can win out over fate.

Rafal: Do you believe we should become…friends? How naive. But I will indulge you if I must.

Zelestia

C Bond:

Zelestia: Hello, Lucina. I’m Zelestia, a Mage Dragon. What types of dragons were there in your world?

Lucina: There was the Divine Dragon, the Fell Dragon, and some that were called manaketes.

B Bond:

Lucina: I know you’re a Mage Dragon, Zelestia, but can you actually transform into a dragon?

Zelestia: Not anymore. I lost my dragonstone when my village was burned. I can’t go back for it now.

A Bond:

Lucina: So you came from another world and can’t go back. That happened to me too, a long time ago.

Zelestia: I did, but I have no regrets. I feel like saving this world will save my home too somehow.

Lucina: I know how you feel. I’ll devote all my strength to helping you make that happen.

Zelestia: Thank you, Lucina. I believe that we can save this world together.

Gregory

C Bond:

Lucina: I’m curious… Why do you wear such frightening clothing, Gregory, when you are so gentle?

Gregory: I mean, I’d prefer to wear fluffy, gentle clothing. But wearing this makes enemies think twice.

B Bond:

Lucina: I’ve been thinking…what if you were to wear an imposing pattern, but on fluffy clothes?

Gregory: Whoa, you even drew it out? Wyverns and wolves on a frilly outfit? This is cutting-edge!

A Bond:

Gregory: Thanks for designing that outfit for me, but I don’t think I’ll wear it until the fighting is over.

Lucina: Oh…did you not like it? I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to bother you with my strange fashion choices.

Gregory: Oh, it’s not that! I just didn’t want to associate it with pain and battle. It makes me too happy.

Lucina: In that case, let us win this war quickly. We can celebrate our new peace with a fashion show!

Madeline

C Bond:

Lucina: That was some excellent fighting earlier. It feels like you’re using our bond for a good purpose.

Madeline: Oh…I was just carrying out my duty as a knight. It doesn’t warrant such praise, Lady Lucina.

B Bond:

Madeline: I heard you lost your parents and friends as well, Lady Lucina. How did you…move on?

Lucina: I haven’t moved on. Even now, I still feel that pain. So, when you’re sad, please tell me.

A Bond:

Madeline: So many of those I’ve lost were great knights. I worry whether I’ll ever measure up to them.

Lucina: I understand. I aspired to be like my late father. It’s a difficult thing to follow in such footsteps.

Lucina: But those who survived aren’t alone. I’ll be here beside you as you become a magnificent knight.

Madeline: Thank you! With you by my side, I’ll become strong enough that my name will be renowned.
