Base conversations
Catria and Chris 1
Catria
Greetings. You are Prince Marth's Royal Guard... Chris, correct?
Chris:
And you are Dame Catria of the Macedonian Whitewings...
Catria:
Just Catria is fine, thanks. We're comrades, so I'd be happy if we could talk normally between us.
Chris:
All right. I'd like that too. We've already fought together for a while.
Catria:
That we have. I've seen you battle many times. You fight with peerless devotion to protect Prince Marth... Just as I'd expect from Prince Marth's Royal Guard.
If Chris is male
Chris:
I'm honored. Thank you for your praise. I've watched you fight, too. You're incredibly powerful. I admire you as a warrior.
If Chris is female
Chris:
I'm honored. Thank you for your praise. I've watched you fight, too. You're incredibly powerful. I admire you as a fellow female warrior.
Catria:
Ha... you embarrass me.
If Chris is male
Chris:
In the coming battles... I bet we'll fight together many more times. I'm counting on you.
If Chris is female
Chris:
In the coming battles... I believe we'll fight together many more times. I'm counting on you.
Catria:
Yes, likewise.
Catria and Chris 2
Catria:
Chris, about that last battle... I'm sorry. ...You had to save me.
Chris:
It's fine, we're comrades after all. But you left yourself wide open in battle. That's not like you. Did something happen?
Catria:
N-no... I just lack experience.
Chris:
That's not true. If you fought with your full strength, you wouldn't need my help at all.
Catria:
...
If Chris is male
Chris:
That reminds me. Sometimes I'd see you just staring off into the distance. Were you watching Prince Marth?
If Chris is female
Chris:
That reminds me... Sometimes I'd see you just staring off into the distance. Were you watching Prince Marth?
Catria:
...Ah! N-no. It isn't like that! I was, uh...
Chris:
You don't need to hide it, Catria. Prince Marth is a great man, after all. Everyone is fighting in this army because they admire Prince Marth. I'm no different. You feel the same way, don't you?
Catria:
Y-yeah... That's right.
If Chris is male
Chris:
For your sake as well, Catria, I must do my best as a Royal Guard. I will work become much stronger. For Prince Marth, for you, and for all...
If Chris is female
Chris:
For your sake as well, Catria, I must do my best as a Royal Guard. I will work my hardest. For Prince Marth, for you, and for all...
Catria:
Chris...
Catria and Chris 3
Catria:
Say, Chris. Haven't you been overdoing it lately?
Chris:
W-what do you mean?
Catria:
I admire you for so fervently protecting Prince Marth, but you've been pushing yourself beyond your limits...
Chris:
...Catria. It looks like I couldn't hide it from you after all. Our enemies are becoming stronger. Protecting Prince Marth is not easy. However, I promise you this: no matter what happens to me, at least Prince Marth will be...
Catria:
I'm not worried about Prince Marth, I'm worried about you. If you surrendered your life, even if to protect him... ...I'm sure he would be distraught.
Chris:
That's... Yes. You're right. I might have been taking things too far.
Catria:
No matter what happens, I'm here if you need help. We're comrades, after all.
If Chris is male
Chris:
Got it. Thanks, Catria. You have my gratitude.
If Chris is female
Chris:
Got it. Thanks, Catria. I'm glad you're here for me.
Catria:
It's okay. You've already helped me too, after all... Hey, Chris...
Chris:
Hm?
Catria:
You see, there's something that was bothering me for a long time... Something I couldn't tell anyone. A forbidden feeling... A terrible burden deep within my chest, and I could do nothing to alleviate it... I hated it... It was horrible.
Chris:
If you want to talk about it, I'll listen.
Catria:
Thanks. But right now... I feel a little better. I believe it's probably thanks to you.
Chris:
Me?
Catria:
You have always been by my side. We'd talk and laugh together... We'd talk about Prince Marth and about each other... And as we did... Little by little, my pain lessened. As time passes, then maybe, someday... I'll be able to forget it entirely...
If Chris is male
Chris:
Huh? I don't really get it...
If Chris is female
Chris:
Huh? I'm sorry, but I don't really get it...
Catria:
That's fine. You don't need to. Anyway, thank you Chris...
