Ungh... Hngh... Hngh...
Phew... Oh. Professor! Are you here to train?
I came to train.
I came to check on you.
I knew it! Gotta train daily.
You should join me. Training is more important\nthan worrying about me.
Legs, back, chest, arms, abs. Gotta work\n'em all, right?
I just finished training and I feel great.
Check me out! Are my muscles bulging?
I guess so?
I'm not sure about that.
Another day of training and my muscles are ready\nto burst!
Bulging muscles mean strength. I have to be strong if\nI want to be a proper knight.
And I have to eat if I wanna keep training.\nTime to feast!
Isn't studying also important for a knight?
Ah, way to hit me where it hurts, Professor.
I know I'll be in big trouble if I don't train my\nbrain too.
Anyone who can't get tactics, can't be a\nproper knight.
It's just... I'm no good at remembering that kind\nof stuff.
And training my brain instead of my body makes\nme sleepy.
What if I start training twice as hard? Then I should\nonly have to study half as much, right?
You'll never be a proper knight if you don't study.
You really think so?
I can't let that happen!
I guess I have no choice. I'll prove I can do it!
Wish me luck, Professor! For my training and for\nmy studies!

Great timing, Professor! I was just going to come\nfind you.
...
Are you busy? I have a question about formations.
I don't understand them at all.
Are the speed of battle and the terrain connected\nsomehow? There's too much to memorize!
You don't have to remember everything.
I don't? Then what do I have to know?
I think I understand the basics. To start, you just...
Ah! OK. I think I've got it!
Thanks for the help, Professor! Brains and brawn,\nyou've really got it all.
With your help, I should have no trouble becoming\na proper knight!
Why do you want to be a knight?
Huh? Didn't I tell you?
My parents were merchants of the Alliance.\nThey died in an accident.
That's why it's up to me to look after my little sis.
I'm not great with bookkeeping, so I don't think I'd\nmake a good merchant.
I talked to Grandpa and he suggested I become\na knight.
So I sold all our valuables and used the money to\npay my way into the academy.
My sis won't survive if I get kicked out, so I can't\ngive up now!
Had you no other options?
Did you consider being a mercenary?
I might have tried being a mercenary if I didn't have\nmy little sis to look after.
I probably shouldn't say this, but being a mercenary\ndoes sound like an easier life.
Mercenaries have no responsibilities, and no one else\nto worry about.
But someone's gotta take care of my little sis,\nso that's out of the question.
Serving as a knight in a noble house is more secure,\nand you don't have to worry about dying...unless\nthere's a war.
My sis has been through so much. I don't want her\nto have to worry about me.
Hey. Do you have any siblings, Professor?
No.
Then you probably think I'm missing out on my\nfreedom, having to support her, huh?
But working hard for my sister isn't too bad.
Call it a burden, call it a challenge. If it makes my\nsister happy, I'm happy too!
You should ask your father to have some more kids!
You've got my sympathy. Really. Not having any\nsiblings, I mean.
Anyway, that's why I've got to become a\nproper knight!

Hey, Professor! I think you've been working too\nmuch lately.
The battle's gonna keep going with or without you,\nbut you're the one doing the most out there!
It's real impressive how you can focus on giving\norders and fighting! I don't think I could do both\nin the same battle.
I see you running all over the place, even after the\nbattle's over.
I just don't want you to wear yourself out.
I'll be OK.
Maybe I am tired.
Oh yeah? As soon as you say you're fine, that's when\nit hits you.
You gotta take a break when you can. Even when\nyou're feeling fine, it can suddenly hit you!
No offense, Professor, but don't you think some folks\nmight be taking advantage of you?
Claude keeps asking you to do things, but you never\nsay no.
Like when you gave that speech to the troops. That\ndidn't seem like something you wanted to do.
I know you gotta follow orders on the battlefield, but\nyou shouldn't have to do things off the battlefield\nif you don't wanna.
You've done things you didn't want to do.
What do you mean? Like studying?
Sure, it's not my favorite thing in the world, but that\nwas to keep my little sis fed. I had good reason for it.
It's the same for me.
The same, huh?
I think I get what you mean. You do things you don't\nwanna do for the sake of everyone else.
That's real noble of you, Professor. I guess I can't get\nin your way if you're doing it for the right reasons.
OK, then. I'm gonna keep trying to do my best, but\nnow I'm gonna do it for you.
My little sis is important to me, but you're real\nimportant too.
I always work hard for the people who matter to me.\nAnd having more of them in my life just means\nI gotta work even harder!
What do you think?
I think you're important to me too, Raphael.
Really?! I wasn't expecting you to say that! You're\ngonna make me blush!
We gotta keep working hard together then. At least\nuntil this war's over.
I'll work to make sure you don't collapse\nfrom exhaustion!
You got nothing to worry about, Professor. I've been\ntraining nonstop. I got your back, no matter what!

S Support
Oh. Professor. Are you sure it's OK for you to\nbe here?
You're probably right. Even you need a break every\nonce in a while!
The war's finally over, but they're still putting you to\nwork, huh?
I betcha it's going to get pretty busy from here\non out.
Probably.
Who knows.
Fódlan sure has changed a lot since you were\nour professor.
Some places that lost their leaders...and other ones\ngot wrecked from all the fighting.
You gotta decide what to do about the church now\ntoo, huh?
You have a good grasp of the situation.
Hahaha! Even I understand that much!
I'd never become a great knight if I didn't!
You still want to become a knight?
You bet I do! That's what I've been working toward\nall this time!
I'm not sure you heard, but apparently the battles I\nfought in made me famous!
Folks started calling me "the Beast of Leicester."
Can you believe that? People calling me a Beast!\nI was offended at first, but my little sis said it\nmade me sound tough.
She must be right, 'cause I've had people asking me\nto work for them nonstop!
I've made my decision though. I know whose knight\nI wanna be.
Speaking of... I got this for you. Will you accept it?
...
Ma...m-m-ma—
Marry me and let me be your knight! Please!
Remember when I told you how important you are\nto me?
Well, I wanna be with you and stay by your side!
I thought maybe if we got married, then we could\nalways be together.
What about your sister?
It's awfully nice of you to worry about her, but she'll\nbe fine. I barely took my eye off her and she grew up\ninto an adult!
She decided she's gonna be an artist! I think she's\nbeen talking to Ignatz too much...
It won't be easy, but I want her to do whatever's\ngonna make her happy.
I'll still keep an eye on her, but she'll be off on her\nown soon.
I guess what I'm saying is, don't worry about her.\nShe'll be OK.
I'm more worried about you! You gotta rebuild this\nworld from scratch!
That's a whole lotta weight for one person to carry.\nEnough to crush you.
So, will you let me help you? It's a heavy load, but I\nwanna carry it with you.
What do you say? Will you let me be your knight?
I will. I love you, Raphael.
You...love me? Yes! Yes, yes, yes!
From now on and for the rest of forever, this Beast is\ngonna stay by your side!
But wait. I can't just be a physically strong Beast.\nI gotta have a strong mind too!
Whatever you need, I'll work as hard as I can!\nAs hard as anyone!
I'll keep training to make sure you can count on me.\nAnd...I'll love you. Forever and ever. And ever!

Prom/Tower
Omm... Mmm... Mmm...
Huh? Who's there?!
P-Professor! Is the ball over already?
What, uh... What are you doing here?
Just taking a break.
I heard a strange noise.
Ah, a break. Sure, sure. That's, uh... That's what I'm\ndoing too.
Strange noise? No need to worry! I'll, uh... I'll look\ninto it for you!
Huh. I suddenly have the energy to dance! Maybe I'll\nhead back to the ball.
What were you eating?
Ah! You noticed.
It was just some meat. It was a much nicer cut than\nI'm used to.
We all got one helping, but some people didn't\nwant theirs! Can you believe it?
I hate to see good food go to waste.
I'm sorry, Professor.
You should be.
You need to follow the rules.
You're right. I know...
Oh! By the way! I heard something on my way here.
I heard that if two people make a wish together in\nthis tower, on this night, the goddess will grant it!
Two people?
I don't know the specifics, just that you can't do\nit alone. There has to be two of you.
Since we're both here now, let's make a\nwish together!
What should we wish for? More delicious cuts\nof meat?
No? Then how about bigger muscles?
What else is there to wish for? Hm! Me becoming a\nproper knight?
But that's just for me, not you...
We can wish for that.
Let's wish for peace in Fódlan.
We can? Professor! That's so generous of you!
Now that we wished for it, I'm sure I'll become\na proper knight!
Peace in Fódlan? That's a good wish too!
I really hope our wish comes true.
