- Marth: I remember you telling me you don't want to become a king. Why is that?
- Rowan: It should be pretty obvious. Kings are weak--it's as simple as that.
- Rowan: They need others to protect them, and they can't do anything on their own.
- Rowan: I'm gonna be a knight instead, strong enough to protect everyone.
- Marth: I'd agree that a king cannot act alone... But does that mean he is weak?
- Marth: After all, he has found people willing to lay down their lives for him.
- Marth: Now consider your enemies--they may be giving their lives to protect friends.
- Marth: Does it make you strong to kill someone who has their own honorable intentions?
- Marth: Can you cut down your foe knowing that their death will hurt their friends?
- Rowan: I... I can! I will! There's no time for such hesitation in battle, anyway.
- Rowan: As long as I need to protect my sister...or defend this kingdom...
- Rowan: I won't let doubt stop me from doing what has to be done!
- Marth: You're right. Your sword must be backed by unwavering confidence.
- Marth: That confidence comes from your bond with your sister and kingdom.
- Marth: Such connections are nurtured by a king, and they help to defend his realm.
- Rowan: How does that work?
- Marth: Simply put, people who love the king and the land will fight hard to protect them.
- Marth: Think about it... Your desire to defend your kingdom brought us all together.
- Marth: We fight hard to help you because of the love you clearly have for Aytolis.
- Rowan: Oh... Well...
- Marth: And when we all work together, there's nothing that can stop us.
- Marth: This is the kind of power a king can wield.
- Marth: He may not always fight on the front lines, but he can still protect his people.
- Rowan: ...I still think I'm better in the thick of a fight. My sister has the brains to rule.
- Marth: Hah. I don't mean to be pushy. I'm not trying to talk you into becoming king.
- Marth: I just thought you could use another perspective.
- Marth: I myself hope to become a king who can nurture the bond with his people.
- Rowan: I don't know if I'm cut out to be that kind of king, but you are for sure!
- Marth: Thank you for saying so. There's still a long road ahead, but I'm focused on it.
- Marth: If by chance you decide you do want to become king...
- Marth: I hope my words can be a source of inspiration for you.
- Marth: Remember that everything I do is to nurture the bonds between my friends.
- Rowan I'll keep it in mind for sure. I've seen it firsthand on the battlefield, after all.
- Rowan You're an invaluable ally. I'll never forget your courage.
- Marth: I'll continue to watch over you, Rowan, and I'll always treasure our connection.
