Base conversations

Merric and Chris 1

Merric:
Chris, I must thank you for protecting Prince Marth thus far.

If Chris is male

Chris:
Your thanks is too much. You speak of my duty after all.

If Chris is female

Chris:
Your thanks is too much. I only did what you asked me, Sir Merric.

Merric:
When I heard Altea had fallen, I just couldn't believe it.

Chris:
Indeed, I can't believe our motherland Altea...

Merric:
That happened because you guys were away. There's nothing you could have done. But at least, Prince Marth is safe. Now that I am here, I'll devote all of my strength to our cause.

Chris:
Yes, it is reassuring to have you with us, Sir Merric.

Merric and Chris 2

Merric:
... Chris?

Chris:
Excuse me, am I interrupting you?

Merric:
No, nothing of the sort. When I close my eyes like this, and feel the wind on my body... My heart becomes free and I can focus.

Chris:
That reminds me, they call you the Wind Mage, don't they, Sir Merric?

Merric:
Yes. I suppose I acquired that name because of my mastery of Excalibur.

Chris:
I see. The wind magic, Excalibur... Excalibur suits you well, Sir Merric.

Merric:
I guess... But, would you be surprised if I said I didn't choose Excalibur, but rather Excalibur chose me?

Chris:
Excalibur chose you?

Merric:
That's right. Our teacher, Master Wendell, once gave Excalibur to me and Thoron to Elrean. I didn't receive Excalibur because I was better than Elrean. But, rather, it was because of the magic's personality.

Chris:
Magic has personality?

Merric:
While very rare, some spellbooks have a "will" of their own and the magic itself chooses its owner. Excalibur is one such spellbook. I guess Excalibur liked my personality since it chose me.

Chris:
Magic choosing its user...? Now I've seen everything.

Merric:
Haha. So, as you can see, I only became the Wind Mage by chance. If things had gone a little differently, then perhaps Elrean would be the one being called the Wind Mage.

If Chris is male

Chris:
I see... However, I must say, wind magic really suits you, Sir Merric. Excalibur was probably smitten by your calm disposition.

If Chris is female

Chris:
I see... However, I must say, wind magic really suits you, Sir Merric. Excalibur was probably smitten by your calm disposition. Truly, no wind magic could resist your charms, Sir Merric.

Merric:
Oh, that's kind of you. Thanks.

Merric and Chris 3

Chris:
Sir Merric, what are your plans once this war is over?

Merric:
Hmm, I haven't decided yet. Once peace comes, there are a lot of things I'd like to do. But, they'd all have to wait until after I rescue Lady Elice.

Chris:
Lady Elice...

Merric:
Yes, I couldn't protect Lady Elice during the War of Shadows... and failed to protect her this time too. That's my greatest regret for having left Altea. This time, I'll definitely stay by Lady Elice's side and protect her. It was for that reason, and that reason alone, that I honed my magic. For the one... I really wish to protect... For Lady Elice.

If Chris is male

Chris:
I'll assist you, Sir Merric. Let's rescue Lady Elice as soon as we can.

If Chris is female

Chris:
...So you love Lady Elice that much... I'll do my best, Sir Merric. Let's rescue Lady Elice as soon as we can.

Merric:
You have my thanks!
