Pre-Battle
Lissa
Say, Lucina? I'll still around in your future, right? So, um...what am I like?
Lucina
Well... You're warm and kind, for starters. Even amid the darkness and desolation. Your smile serves as a beacon of hope for all those around you.
Lissa
Oh, geez! I'd better get cracking if I want to live up to that. Oh! I know! Do I have children?
Lucina
You have a son name Owain.
Lissa
Aw, cute! What's he like?
Lucina
He's... Well, he's quite colorful.
Lissa
Hmm... I'm not sure I want to know what that means. Oh! Wait! One more thing! Does he have... ......
Lucina
Yes?
Lissa
No... Never mind.
Lucina
Are you sure?
Lissa
Sorry, I just remembered I promised to help Chrom with something. ...Bye!
Lucina
Lissa?

Ruffian
This is it, boss! That treasure's here; I'm sure of it!
Gecko
All right, woman. Speak! Where'd ya put it?
Maiden
I've never heard of no treasures here! Honest I haven't!
Gecko
Oh? Then I guess we're done here. She's useless, boys. Kill her.
Ruffian
Aye, boss!
???
Halt, fiends!
Ruffian
The devil are you?!
???
One chosen by forces beyond mortal comprehension! See how my sword hand twitches! It hungers...for justice! Leave now it you value life and limb, for I cannot stay the hungry hand!
Ruffian
This guy's got rocks in his head... All right then, boy. Guess you're the first to— Gragh!
???
I tried to warn you, foul villain. The hand cannot be denied!
Maiden
Oh, thank the stars! You've saved my life!
Chrom
Wait. That stance...
Gecko
Rgh... Who ARE you?!
???
I am the wolf who howls for justice! The eagle who cries for love!
Owain
A chosen warrior come from the future to bring hope to a dying world... I am Owain! Now, atone for your deeds in the eternal hellfire of perdition! RADIANT...DAAAAAAWN! ...... Blast you, sword hand! Now's no time for games! You've escaped fate this time, rogue, but remember—justice always prevails!
Gecko
......
Chrom
......
Lissa
Wow, that guy's really weird. ...Wait a second.
Gecko
Gahar har har! I KNEW there were rocks in your head! Look lively, boys! Ignore the dolt and find us that treasure! Pinch everything that shines, and make for the hills!
Owain
Not today, ne'er-do-wells! The legendary blade Mystletainn is fated for my twitching hand alone!
Chrom
...I am so lost right now. What is he even talking about? ...Never mind. Let's just kill the bandits, and I'm sure everything will sort itself out.
Start Battle
Talk to Owain
Lissa
Lissa
Oh, hey! It's you. Thanks for helping—
Owain
MOM?!
Lissa
Hu-what?
Owain
Blessed Mother! I have crossed oceans of time to find— Oh, forget it. I'm your kid from the future! Look at the signet ring upon my finger. Behold, a perfect match to yours! Unique in all the world, and yet here lie two. Proof positive my claims are true!
Lissa
...Who did what now? Hold on. Slow down. Back up. Start again.
Owain
Um... Sorry about that. Look, the important thing here is that I'm—
Lissa
...Oh, gods. Owain.
Owain
Huh?
Lissa
That's your name. Isn't it?
Owain
Indeed it is! And none have ever been prouder to bear it! For it is the name you gave me, Mother! I've come to part the dark clouds that hang forebodingly over this era!
Chrom
Owain
Nrgh! Sword hand, no! Control yourself! P-power...too great... C-can't contain it...
Chrom
Um, sorry to interrupt your...conversation? But I have a question about your stance. You've crafted your own style around it, but it's clearly from the royal house of Ylisse.
Owain
By the gods old and new! Another future traveler?! And yet, impossible, for I saw none like him in the light... Who are you, villain?! Speak now!
Chrom
Um, I'm Chrom. ...Of Ylisse? I have no quarrel with you, but if we must fight, then—
Owain
UNCLE CHROM?!
Chrom
...Uncle?
Owain
Wait! Hold on! Let me start over. O fellow scion of the great hero, I greet you as kin and kind! From across the misty shores of time I strive, bearing forth tidings of—
Chrom
Keep it brief, would you?
Owain
...I'm Lissa's kid from the future!
Chrom
That is...not what I was expecting to hear. Did you come with Lucina?
Owain
Yes. It seems the blood we share has drawn us like moths to the flame! Like a great tidal wave of heroism, we crash upon the shores of evil and—
Chrom
Can you fight? Or do you just talk a lot?
Owain
My mettle in combat is the stuff of legend! Bards sing tales of my— H-hey! Wait! Uncle Chrooom!
I have but one request. If you find the sword Mystletainn, please permit me to wield it!
Chrom
I heard you wailing about that before. What kind of blade are we talking here?
Owain
A legendary one, Uncle! Imbued with the very power of the gods, if the tales are to be believed. I would use its might to defend my sacred queen and mother!
Chrom
...You mean Lissa? *Sigh* I suppose I should just be happy she has such a...devoted son.
Owain defeated before recruited
Owain
Argh... I see the Stygian dark... C-can't feel my...sword hand...
Villagers
Talk to north villager
Villager
Hail, traveler. Thank you for coming to our aid. Please use this to treat your injured. It's an old recipe, but well effective.
Talk to southeastern villager
Villager
You have our thanks for your bravery. I'm afraid this medicine is all I can offer in return, but I pray it keeps you safe.
If Owain talks to the villager
Villager
You're a kind soul to fight for strangers so. Here, you must take this.
Owain
By the ghost of Ike! I've found it at last! The fated mate to my sword hand! ...The divine blade, Mystletainn!
Villager
Er, I'm afraid this is a blade of extremely common make, sir. I was using it to dig a well, but I figured you might—
Owain
Come, Mystletainn! Destiny beckons!
Villager
I also used it to cut small vegetables before it got dull. ...Er, hello?
>Obtain Missiletainn
Owain
The blade of legend and song... I feel its power coursing through me! At last, my sword hand lays calm. Come, Mystletainn. Destiny beckons! The rest of these rogues are ours alone!
Talk to southwestern villager
Villager
You're a welcome sight indeed. I'd near given up hope! This is one of our village treasures. May it help you in keeping us safe.
VS Gecko
Gecko
The treasure's mine! Cross me, and I'll decorate this place with your bones!
Gecko Defeated
Gecko
Mine... It's all...mine...
Post-Battle
Villager
We owe you a great debt for protecting our village. Truly, from all of us, thank you.
If Owain survived
Lissa
Where did he get off to? Lucina said she saw him go this way. ...... Ugh, maybe I should just forget it. If he doesn't have one, either... Aaah!
Ruffian
Keh heh! Let's have all your coin, girly! Unless you wanna lose that pretty head.
Lissa
Stay back!
Owain
No one hurts the mother of Owain! SACRED...STOOOOOONES!
Ruffian
Guhaaargh!
Owain
Mother, are you all right?!
Lissa
Yeah, I'm fine. I'm... Holy crow! Your arm!
Owain
This? Hah! It's not but a torn sleeve.
Lissa
...No, I mean, HOLY CROW, LOOK AT THAT THING ON YOUR ARM!
Owain
Oh, right! Sorry. Guess I should have shown you before. It's my Brand. The one carried by House Ylisse. So no more need to worry, eh?
Lissa
Th-then you know? That I don't...
Owain
That your Brand never surfaced? Yes, you told me as such. You said it always weighed on you... You should have seen how happy you were the day mine appeared! You were sobbing and laughing for an hour without pause!
Lissa
I was kind of hoping to grow out of the crying thing...
Owain
Yes, well. No more worrying. It was by chance alone your Brand never surfaced. We're all family, linked by blood. You really are Chrom's sister. My Brand proves our lineage.
Lissa
Thank you. Just... *sniff* Thank you, Owain.
Owain
You're welcome!
Lissa
Heh... *sniff*
Owain
And as scions of the hero, it falls on us to ensure my dark future doesn't come true. Come, Mother! We shall fight together!
Uh-oh... Argh... Too much...passion! Sword hand...getting hungry...again!
Lissa
You know, maybe you should have that looked at.
