Balthus enters the scene

Balthus
volume_up

Hey, you! We need to talk. Now.
link
What's wrong?
link
Balthus
volume_up

You did it for me, didn't you? Without even taking credit for it.
link
Balthus
volume_up

Admit it, pal. You asked the emperor to protect the people of Kupala.
link
Balthus
volume_up

Because of you, those mountains will be treated as an independent region of the Empire.
link
Balthus
volume_up

Admit it, pal. You ordered the church to protect the people of Kupala.
link
Balthus
volume_up

Because of you, those mountains will be considered church turf, and the eastern church will be restored.
link
Balthus
volume_up

Admit it, pal. You asked the king to protect the people of Kupala.
link
Balthus
volume_up

Admit it, pal. You asked Claude to protect the people of Kupala.
link
Balthus
volume_up

Relations between Fódlan and Almyra are downright friendly now. Those mountains will be prime real estate. They needed this.
link
Balthus
volume_up

I do. But you know, saving those folks was my gig. Not yours.
link
Balthus
volume_up

Sure, sure. But you know, saving those folks was my gig. Not yours.
link
Balthus
volume_up

Now that the war's over... Ah, I'll just spit it out. I was starting to get excited about fighting that fight.
link
Balthus
volume_up

Guess you could say I was disappointed to find you'd beaten me to the punch.
link
Balthus
volume_up

But what matters is results. So... Thank you. There. I said it. Won't say it again.
link
Balthus
volume_up

There's still a lot to figure out. The road ahead won't be easy. But this was a giant leap forward.
link
You're welcome.
link
Balthus
volume_up

Right. There's, um, one more thing I need to get off my chest.
link
What's that?
link
Balthus
volume_up

Ugh... I'm a mess. I wasn't planning on doing this just yet, but you've forced my hand.
link
Balthus
volume_up

I was going to wait until I had figured out a way to ensure Kupala's safety first.
link
Balthus
volume_up

Guess that excuse is out the window. So now... It's time to take the biggest gamble of my life. I'm prepared for the worst. Expecting it, really.
link
Byleth
(Just say it already.)
link
Balthus
volume_up

You... I-I... Marry me, pal!
link
Balthus
volume_up

Look, I know it's a big ask. I'm beefy, but that aside, I'm not the most eligible bachelor on the block.
link
Balthus
volume_up

But I promise to become...better. Not so selfish and careless. I wanna support you. Make you happy.
link
Balthus
volume_up

The life I live makes me comfortable, but... Comfort be damned! I need you by my side. Always.
link
Balthus
volume_up

If I'm not good enough now, just give me time. A year, maybe? Two years? Five tops.
link
Balthus
volume_up

You do?! I knew it! That seals the deal then, yeah? Let's get hitched right away. I know a guy.
link
Balthus
volume_up

I... OK, you called my bluff.
link
Balthus
volume_up

I meant...a figurative year. I mean, why not work on myself with you? That makes sense, I swear!
link
Just teasing. I love you as you are now.
link
Balthus
volume_up

Phew! You had me goin' there. But...that's a promise, yeah? To have and to hold and so on?
link
Balthus
volume_up

I'm not the sort to wait around once I know what I want. Let's get hitched right away. I know a guy.
link
No time like the present.
link
Balthus
volume_up

Couldn't have said it better myself. Guess a lavish party is in order now. We have a lot to do.
link
Balthus
volume_up

Ah, speaking of lavish... I know I need to sort out my finances. We'll need a house and all that good stuff.
link
Balthus
volume_up

Hey, maybe we can just shack up here at the monastery. What do you think?
link
Balthus
volume_up

Hey, maybe we can just shack up here at the monastery. What do you think?
link
Balthus
volume_up

Ahem. No need to decide now...my love. Let's just focus on this "being happy" business. The rest'll work itself out.
link
Balthus
volume_up

It feels like a lifetime ago, but remember when you told me you'd protect me?
link
Balthus
volume_up

At the time, I had no idea how to take it. I wasn't sure I could bear letting someone else look after me.
link
Balthus
volume_up

I was sure that, in the end, I'd be the one protecting you. That I'd be the strong one. That's how it's always been for me. Guess I was wrong...
link
You protected me too.
link
Balthus
volume_up

Ha! Suppose so. In the end, we protected each other.
link
Balthus
volume_up

To join our strength. To look after you...and be brave enough to let you look after me. That's what marriage is all about, right?
link
Balthus
volume_up

Being with you is so natural, it must be fate. Uh, you know, if fate were a thing...that is.
link
Balthus
volume_up

From now on, we'll keep looking out for each other. You can bet on it.
