Xander: Hya! Hah! Hyaaa!!

Avatar: *yawn* Xander? You're not still training are you? You should get some rest.

Xander: Hm? Ah, Avatar. Thank you for your concern, but I haven't a moment to lose. I must keep improving my sword technique for the glory of Nohr. As crown prince, it is my responsibility to be as strong as I can for our people.

Avatar: Ha ha, even after all these years, you're still the same Xander.

Xander: Oh? How so?

Avatar: Remember when I was little, and I'd get so lonely in the Northern Fortress? You'd always come stay with me until I got sleepy and then go train late into the night.

Xander: You knew about that? But how?

Avatar: I could see you from my window. After you left, I always watched you train for a bit. It's a little embarrassing, but I'd even try to imitate how you swung your sword. I thought if I matched your movements, maybe one day I could be as strong as you.

Xander: I had no idea.

Avatar: I was always afraid if I told you about it, you might train elsewhere. Wow, thinking about all that is making me really nostalgic. Such great memories. You know...we've been so busy, we haven't had a chance to train together in a while. Um, if you're not too busy, maybe we could practice sword swinging like old times...

Xander: That's the best idea I've heard all day. But it can't be like old times. This time, you and I shall train side by side. No more lonely Northern Fortress for you.

Avatar: Ha ha, great! I'll grab my blade!

Xander: Hyaaa! Hah!

Avatar: At it again, Xander? Don't you ever sleep?

Xander: If I train while my enemies are sleeping, I shall always have the advantage.

Avatar: Mind if I join in? I had a great time training with you the other day.

Xander: I am always happy to have such a capable fighter aid me in my practice. ...

Avatar: Is something the matter? I understand if you'd prefer to be alone right now...

Xander: Oh no, not at all. I was just thinking about what you said the other day.

Avatar: What about it?

Xander: Exactly how much sleep did I cause you to lose because of my training? Thinking back, I recall how hard it was to get you up in the morning. Am I to blame?

Avatar: Ha ha, don't be silly. It's true I stayed up to watch, but it actually helped me sleep. Some people need to hear the ocean waves to lull themselves to sleep... I need to hear your powerful blade slicing through the night air. It's soothing. I know it sounds ridiculous, but watching you train always made me feel safe.

Xander: Truly? Well, I suppose if that's the case I shall forgive us both.

Avatar: ... Um, Xander? Is something else on your mind? You look troubled.

Xander: Am I such an open book to you?

Avatar: You're swinging your sword so fiercely today, with a wild look in your eyes. It's the same look you always had on nights when you and Father would argue.

Xander: ... You're too clever for your own good, Avatar. I have much on my mind, but I have no regrets about the decisions I've made. Like you, I am proceeding down the path I believe in, no matter the consequences.

Avatar: Oh, so that's it. Sorry, maybe I shouldn't have asked. It's just so nice to hear what's on your mind instead of wondering from afar.

Xander: Worry not, little princess. I have enjoyed our discourse as well. But the hour is getting late. Let's finish up so we can rest for tomorrow's endeavors.

Avatar: OK. This time I'm going to beat you!

Xander: Ah, Avatar. I've been waiting for you. I knew you'd turn up eventually.

Avatar: Ugh, am I that predictable? Oh well. Shall we begin?

Xander: Certainly. ... Avatar... Did you mean it when you said you prefer to hear what's on my mind?

Avatar: I meant it with all my heart.

Xander: I see... Well, I suppose I owe you the courtesy of explaining a thing or two. You were right about me taking out my anger at Father during my training. Sometimes being crown prince means following the king's orders no matter what. But there were times when I felt his commands crossed a line. Sometimes it didn't feel like he was trying to benefit the kingdom at all, just himself. Having to do things I didn't believe in weighed heavily on my heart. Now I'm wise enough and brave enough to stand up to Father. But back then... Those were the nights you spoke of, when I swung my blade like a wild beast.

Avatar: Xander...

Xander: I never thought I'd tell you that. I always tried to shield you from such things. A sword is a strange and beautiful thing... Sometimes just one swing of your blade can communicate more than a lifetime of words. Thank you for listening, Avatar. Both to my blade back then and my words now.

Avatar: No need to thank me. I didn't do anything but listen. And pry.

Xander: You did more than you know. It's thanks to you...that I don't feel alone anymore.

Avatar: Xander... It means the world to me to hear you say that. You saved me from my own loneliness when I was a child, locked away from the world... I'm so happy to finally repay the favor. It was always my dearest wish to do so. If you ever feel like talking, about anything, I'm always here for you.

Xander: I don't wish for you to lose sleep over my troubles...

Avatar: I've been losing sleep over you for years now, ha ha. It's my favorite tradition.

Xander: As you wish, Avatar. From now on I promise to let you in.

Xander: Hello, Avatar. Thank you for joining me here today.

Avatar: Sure thing. Your note said it was urgent... Is everything OK?

Xander: ... I need to ask you something. What do you think of me?

Avatar: I'm not sure what you mean...

Xander: I know this is out of the blue, but I need to know. Please answer truthfully.

Avatar: OK... If it means that much to you. Well, to me you're someone I admire. Someone strong and wise and noble. You're the rock of the family, someone we can all depend on and look up to. You taught me about courage and about the sword, as well as about right and wrong. I was so sad when I first found out we aren't truly brother and sister... I was always so proud to be the little sister of the finest prince there ever was.

Xander: Thank you, Avatar. I am honored by your kind words. Though, to be honest, I feel the exact opposite in one respect.

Avatar: Oh?

Xander: I am overjoyed that we are not brother and sister.

Avatar: Y-you are? But why?! I guess I wasn't a very good sister...

Xander: Please don't misunderstand me. I meant that in the best way possible.

Avatar: What way is that?

Xander: You said just now that I taught you about courage and about the sword. But...I wish to teach you about much more than that. I wish to teach you about love. That's why I bought this for you.

Avatar: Is that a r-ring?!

Xander: Dearest, Avatar. You are the most precious person in the world to me. Would you do me the honor of being my wife?

Avatar: Your wife?! Xander, are you sure? What will the others say...

Xander: Let them say what they will. I wish to protect you for the rest of my days. I don't see you as a sibling any longer, but as a woman... One who I adore. Please say you'll stay by my side, now and forever.

Avatar: Xander... Of course I'll marry you. I'm so happy. I don't know what to say! But everyone will be so surprised. They may even object at first...

Xander: Worry not. In the end, I'm certain everyone will understand. After all, our marriage won't only benefit our future happiness... I believe it will also have a positive effect on our beloved kingdom as well.

Avatar: You're right, as ever. Besides, what matters most is that we'll finally be together.

Xander: I can't wait to spend my life with you, little princess. I have so much to tell you... You were cooped up so long, I wish to show you the whole world.

Avatar: I can't wait. Thank you, dear Xander.

(Confession Scene)

Xander: I love you, truly. I've been meaning to tell you for so long... You are my precious wife now. It is my honor and duty to keep you safe, at all costs.
