Base conversations
Wendell and Chris 1
If Chris is male
Wendell:
...So, in other words, the Starsphere broke into twelve pieces and those pieces are the star shards. Each of them has a name and effect associated with one of the twelve constellations.
Chris:
I see... Interesting. Lord Wendell, you really do know everything don't you?
Wendell:
That's not true. I only know what Lord Gotoh taught me.
Chris:
Lord Gotoh... But you know almost as much as he does, right?
Wendell:
No... Not nearly that much. Lord Gotoh stands on an entirely different level to me.
Chris:
Is that so?
Wendell:
Yes. Sir Chris, what do you think about Lord Gotoh?
Chris:
Let me see... He uses magic to talk to us from afar, and he appears in the sky without warning. I'd say he's a rather odd individual... Yeah, I think that sounds right. It would benefit us all if he could fight alongside us without being so showy and mysterious.
Wendell:
G-good heavens... You go too far, Sir Chris. Do you understand how rude you sounded!? Lord Gotoh is like a deity to all us humans.
Chris:
Really?
Wendell:
Yes. I must tell you about him in proper detail...
If Chris is female
Wendell:

Wendell and Chris 2
If Chris is male
Wendell:
Sir Chris, do you know the story of the hero Anri?
If Chris is female
Wendell:
Dame Chris, do you know the story of the hero Anri?
Chris:
Why, of course. He was Prince Marth's great ancestor, and the first King of Altea.
Wendell:
Yes, and the savior of the world who vanquished Medeus with the divine sword Falchion.... Anri received the Falchion from the Sage of the North... None other than Lord Gotoh himself.
Chris:
So that's how... Then, that means Lord Gotoh saved our ancestors and, by extension, all of us.
Wendell:
Yes, and during the War of Shadows, the one who guided Prince Marth and gave him the Starlight tome needed to defeat the Dark Pontifex Gharnef... That was, once again, Lord Gotoh.
Chris:
S-so that's how! Then, that means Lord Gotoh saved Prince Marth's life, and therefore my own.
Wendell:
Yes, yes.
Chris:
But, there's something I don't understand. Why does he ask us to come to him? Since he can move around freely with his magic, he could come to us instead.
Wendell:
Lord Gotoh has to test us. We must all be prepared to save this world, no matter what obstructs us. Anyone who is not worthy won't be able to wield the power Lord Gotoh offers. That is why a test is necessary.
Chris:
I see. So Lord Gotoh has his reasons... He wasn't just a weird old man...
Wendell:
Of course not.

If Chris is male
Wendell:
Sir Chris, I have told you how Lord Gotoh has saved Altea multiple times, but naturally, he has done far more than just that. The magic we study in Khadein... That magic was given to men by Lord Gotoh himself.
If Chris is female
Wendell:
Dame Chris, I have told you how Lord Gotoh has saved Altea multiple times, but naturally, he has done far more than just that. The magic we study in Khadein... That magic was given to men by Lord Gotoh himself.
Chris:
Magic itself...?
Wendell:
Yes. Were it not for Lord Gotoh, there would be no magic in this world.
Chris:
T-that's...! That is amazing beyond belief!
Wendell:
Yes, indeed... Originally, Lord Gotoh gave magic to mankind in order to help us. He was saddened to see it later used as a tool for war...
Chris:
Not just powerful, but benevolent too... I'm awestruck by his magnificence. Lord Gotoh is truly an astonishing person.
Wendell:
Yes. Do you understand now?
If Chris is male
Chris:
Yes, I am ashamed of my past ignorance. Lord Gotoh... Forgive me for thinking you were just a weird old man...
If Chris is female
Chris:
Yes, I am ashamed of what I've said. Lord Gotoh... Forgive me for thinking you were just a weird old man...
Wendell:
Yes yes, that's good of you. Lord Gotoh sees all. He has surely heard your words just now.
Chris:
Thank you, Lord Gotoh! Please keep on protecting us!
Wendell:
That's quite all right, he can hear you. You don't need to shout so loudly...
