FE12 Story Script Rewrite (Prologue 4: New Friends.)

Prologue 4: New Friends.




Luke:
Sigh.

Ryan:
What's wrong, Luke?

Luke:
Don't you think it's a crying shame that there aren't any cute and caring clerics around?

Ryan:
W-what do you mean...?

Luke:
Well, a knight thrives on romance, right? Like if I were wounded in battle, and a lovely cleric came to my aid...


(Luke notices Kris and addresses him using his nickname)


Luke:
Hey, Kris the Ordinary. If we had a cleric like that with us, I bet we'd all fight twice as hard!
Kris:
Well, I don't know about the romantic part... But it would make our lives easier if we had a healer on our side. Unfortunately, I don't think there are any healers around, Luke. It might be a good idea for us to ask someone for assistance on the matter.

Katarina:
Kris, everyone, please listen. I bring good news. They've found us someone who can support our platoon! It appears we might be joined by a healer!

Luke:
She's finally here! My lovely cleric! Out of my way! Let me at her!

Wrys:
Pleased to meet you! I am Wrys, a humble curate. I cannot fight, but this staff I carry can heal your wounded.

Luke:
........

Wrys:
Yes, yes, I heard the whole thing from Sir Jagen. If you like, I could lend you my services as a healer. ...Oh my, has something terrible happened? Your face looks awfully pale... Have you been taken by illness, my boy?

Kris:
It's nothing... He's just overwhelmed with joy right now.

Katarina:
Pay no heed to Luke; we're all fine. Pleased to make your acquaintance, Wrys.




(The group heads over to Cain)

Cain:
Well then, let's continue the combat training. Everyone, you had better be prepared! I've decided that you will have a rather unusual instructor for today's practical training.




(Jeorge map)

Cain:
This is Captain Jeorge, who is visiting from the kingdom of Archanea.

Jeorge:
I came to instruct Gordin in archery, but once I heard your story, my curiosity was piqued, to say the least. So, I asked a big favor: to be allowed to take part.

Katarina:
Sir Jeorge... A true master of the bow and arrow, they call him greatest archer on the continent. Kris, do your best!




(Athena map)

Cain:
This is Miss Athena, a foreign myrmidon who helped us in the last war.

Athena:
Ve are indebted to this country, and ve vish to return the favor. Any voman vould do the same. Ve are bad at teaching. But if ve are using swords, ve vill not lose.

Katarina:
Athena is a myrmidon with excellent speed and an opponent whom you must be very cautious of. Kris, do your best!





Map Start




(Fighting Jeorge)

Jeorge:
I am Jeorge, Captain of Archanea's Bow Knights. Let me see how you fare in battle.








(Fighting Athena)

Athena:
Ve vill challenge you!








(Jeorge defeated)

Jeorge:
Not bad...








(Athena defeated)

Athena:
Ve give up...









Map Clear!!




(Jeorge map)

Jeorge:
Not bad at all. That was a splendid fight. You, what is your name?

Kris:
The name's Kris. Junior knight Kris.

Jeorge:
Kris... I'll remember that name. I'm afraid I cannot join your cause, but... Gordin, could you go in my stead?

Gordin:
Yes sir. I'll gladly fill in for you.

Jeorge:
Kris, you are someone I'd like to fight alongside one day. I look forward to the day we can meet again.








(Athena map)

Athena:
You are strong. Especially you. You, vat is your name?

Kris:
The name's Kris. Junior knight Kris.

Athena:
Kris... Ve vill remember that. You, you are our friend. Ve vill aid you if you vant.












(Cain's report)

Cain:
Today's training is now over. With that, I shall give you an interim report.

Kris:
Interim report...?

Cain:
From the very first test until now, I have evaluated your manner of combat. The more of your allies that have been injured and forced to withdraw, the poorer your score. Get ready to listen up!

Kris:
Yes sir.

Cain:
Commander Kris of the 7th Platoon! Of the twenty junior knight platoons, you place...



(Very few fallen allies)

Cain:
First! Wonderful work, Kris! You are most talented!

Katarina:
A-amazing! We did it! We did it, Kris! It's all thanks to your guidance!

Cain:
But don't let your guard down. Placing first doesn't give you an excuse to start slacking off. That is all! You may return to the castle!



(Few fallen allies)

Cain:
Third! Impressive, Kris! I'd say that you've placed rather high.

Katarina:
We did it! We did it, Kris! It's thanks to you we made it this far!

Cain:
But don't let your guard down. You are still in-training--so from now on, you must aim even higher. That is all! You may return to the castle!



(Some fallen allies)

Cain:
Tenth. Just in the middle, Kris. I've got nothing good to say, at this rate.

Katarina:
I'm sorry, Kris. It's because I can't do anything...

Cain:
But don't give up. You are still in the middle of training, so I expect more effort from now on. That is all! You may return to the castle!



(Lots of fallen allies)

Cain:
Last... Kris... None placed worst than you...

Katarina:
I, I-I'm terribly sorry, Kris... It's because I can't do anything...

Cain:
...But don't give up. You are still in the middle of training, so from now on try as hard as you can. That is all! You may return to the castle!







(In the castle)


Kris:
...This castle sure is massive. It's a complete difference to the house in my hometown… It never ceases to amaze me…

Elice:
Oh my... You are a junior knight, are you not?

Kris:
Huh? Oh, yes. I'm Kris. I came here hoping to become an Altean knight. And you are...?

Elice:
I am Elice. Marth's elder sister.

Kris:
Oh! Prince Marth's elder sister... Please excuse my lack of manners.

Elice:
It's alright. Kris... I think it's very admirable that you've come to help Marth.

Kris:
It is an honor to serve Prince Marth, The Lodestar.

Elice:
"The Lodestar"... you say? It does seem that our people have grown fond of calling him that. Especially after overcoming many hardships to free us all from the empire's grip…

Kris:Hardships?

Elice:
Yes. When Altea was attacked in the previous war, Marth was forced to leave his homeland behind, so that one day he would reclaim it and emerge victorious against Dolhr. But I stayed behind to him some time…I know for sure that he was devastated when he found out I wasn’t coming with him…

Kris:
.......

Elice:
The years went by… and when I found out Altea was liberated, I felt so proud of him… He managed to liberate our home and ended our people's suffering…Then came the day he rescued me from the Dark Pontifex…

Kris:
Yes, I know of that…Prince Marth and the Archanean League fought against Gharnef's forces at the tower of Thabes, and that’s when he saw you again…

Elice:
I was so happy to see him again…Marth…He had matured into such a wonderful man and great leader… I remember his face when he saw me again, he could barely hold back… After everything he endured, I can certainly say that he deserves all of the praise the people give him…

Kris:
I understand, Princess…

Elice:
Well, I must be going, it was nice talking to you Kris.I see potential in you...If some day you should achieve knighthood... Please, help Marth achieve his dreams of leading our nation into prosperity.
