- [Solace Estate]
- Brothers: (Get lost, you bastard. You monster... You only possess abilities due to your bloodline. If it wasn't for you..!!)
- Fenriart: (... Stop...!! How long are you going to torment me? I didn't choose to be born like this...)
- Fenriart: (... I can't do anything about it. I don't want to think about mother... and the village people I couldn't save.)
- ???: Sniff... Sniff...
- Fenriart: Who is that?
- Fenriart: (... She's the girl that was adopted in to the Solace's family a few days ago... Was her name... Hernia?)
- Fenriart: (She was discovered on the battlefield and is said to possess a great El ability...)
- Fenriart: You, what are you doing here?
- Hernia: Ah...! It's n-nothing. I-...
- Fenriart: ... I don't know what's going on, but no one here is going to care that you're crying...
- Hernia: No... I was just...
- Fenriart: (She has scars all over her body.) That pendant is damaged. Where's the gem? Why do you only have the string?
- Hernia: ... This is just... I think I lost it when I fell down...! I have to hurry... and find it, sniff...
- Fenriart: (Those aren't injuries from accidents... It looks like someone is tormenting her...)
- Fenriart: (There aren't many who would do something like this. It has to be them.)
- Hernia: I'm, I'm okay! Thanks for worrying about me...
- Fenriart: ... Wait. I think I know who did this.
- Hernia: Ah..! W-Wait...!
- Solace's Soldier: Kh...
- Fenriart: Now you steal things from a little girl?
- Fenriart: Not only that, you even bullied her?
- Solace's Soldier: We... We were just ordered..
- Fenriart: I know. Go and tell my brothers that Fenriart is at it again.
- Solace's Soldier: Kugh...! Yes, sir.
- Fenriart: ...
- Hernia: Ah! Thank you.. But won't you get in trouble, Fenriart...?
- Fenriart: Don't worry about it. I never really liked those guys...
- Fenriart: And no need to be all formal. I don't want to be treated like my brothers.
- Hernia: ... O-... Okay, sorry. And... thanks.
- Fenriart: Hernia! Hernia!!
- Fenriart: She's not here? Where can she be...?
- Hernia: Sniff....
- Fenriart: What are you doing here? Also, you're hurt again...
- Hernia: It's, it's nothing! The thing is... I was playing with the m-maids and... I fell!
- Fenriart: Did my brother do this?
- Hernia: No, this is..!
- Fenriart: Don't try to pretend otherwise. Those injuries... You can't get those from simply falling down..!
- Fenriart: Wait, I'll wrap it with this.
- Hernia: I don't want you to get in trouble with Sigmund because of me.
- Fenriart: I'm not being scolded because of you.
- Fenriart: ... This will do. Ask the maid to disinfect it. You don't want it to scar...
- Hernia: Okay... Fenriart, promise me. Promise me you won't fight with Sigmund.
- Fenriart: ... Alright. You can go.
- Hernia: ...
- Fenriart: ... If you don't trust me, I'll swear on this necklace. It's something my mother gave me before she passed away.
- Hernia: ... Your mother's?
- Fenriart: Yeah, it's important to me. Do you trust me?
- Hernia: Okay. I'll trust you, Fenriart! Don't fight, okay?
- Fenriart: Alright, alright.. Get going.
- Hernia: Okay!
- Fenriart: (... Sorry, Hernia.)
- Sigmund: Wh-, What are you doing?! Guard!!!! Guard!!!!!
- Fenriart: I'm just repaying what you've done to Hernia, dear brother.
- Sigmund: How dare you point your knife at me...?! You think you can get away with this?!
- Sigmund: Let go! Aaaahhh!!!!
- Fenriart: ... Next time, it won't end like this.
- Sigmund: You... You..!
- Fenriart: Yes. I'm the one you hate. Leave Hernia alone!
- Sigmund: Kugh...
- Fenriart: Yeah, come find me anytime. Then...
- Sigmund: Kuhahah, letting your guard down like that, how stupid!!
- Fenriart: ?!!
- Hernia: Fenriart!!
- (Flash!!)
- Fenriart: Hernia?!!
- Sigmund: What is this? This light?!! Aaaah!!!
- (THUMP!!)
- Sigmund: Eu... uuuk... You brat... You, you won't get away with this...!!
- Hernia: Fenriart, are you okay?
- (SHINE...!)
- Hernia: Is this...?
- Hernia: Your necklace and mine... are shining... at the same time...
- Fenriart: What...?
- Fenriart's Mother: (Fenriart... This necklace is the Rubenian Resonance Stone. It is a magic stone that resonates with our El ability.
- Fenriart's Mother: (It is something that our ancestors wore to remember each other by... as they were spread throughout the continent...)
- Fenriart: (Hernia... Were you a Rubenian like me...? The same as my mother and those villagers I couldn't protect...?!)
- Hernia: Fenri... art?
- Fenriart: No, it's nothing... It's late. Go and get some rest.
- Hernia: ... You're always getting hurt because of me... I'm sorry...
- Fenriart: Stop saying you're sorry.
- Hernia: ... Okay.
- Fenriart: (I will make sure to protect you...!)
