How are you today, Lysithea?

Lysithea

Fine, thank you. And yourself?

Edelgard

Quite well, thank you.

I overheard something recently. Something pertaining to you and your vision for the future...

Lysithea

Is it really true that you intend to create a world in which Crests no longer exist?
link
Edelgard
volume_up

It's true. My aim is to dismantle the current system of aristocracy.
link
Edelgard

The only reason nobles enjoy the status they do is because their bloodlines carry Crests. If Crests lose their value, so will titles of nobility.

Lysithea
volume_up

I really agree with your thinking.
link
Lysithea
volume_up

My parents have suffered throughout their lives due to their nobility.
link
Lysithea
volume_up

Due to my own Crests, I've never been able to live a normal life.
link
Lysithea
volume_up

I'm sick of nobility and Crests—of all of it. It sounds as if it's truly your mission to change things.
link
Lysithea
volume_up

I'll pledge my life to your cause, however short it may be.

Edelgard

Lysithea...

Lysithea

Has your hair always been that color, by the way?
link
Edelgard
volume_up

Huh?
link
Lysithea
volume_up

I ask because mine wasn't always this color. I lost all pigment after receiving my two Crests.
link
Lysithea
volume_up

Edelgard, I want a world where people like you and I are no longer victimized. I want you to bring that world into being.
link
Lysithea
volume_up

If it's within me to help that come to pass, then I'll do whatever it takes.
link
Edelgard
volume_up

Understood. I promise to do all I can to see this goal to fruition.
link
Edelgard
volume_up

And I want you to promise something in return... that you will never stop fighting for your life.
link
Edelgard
volume_up

Whatever terrible fate awaits us, we can fight it and prevail!
link
Edelgard
volume_up

I need you to trust me on that. Do you promise?
link
Lysithea
volume_up

I...I promise. I will try my best to believe that.
link
Edelgard
volume_up

Good girl. Now then...would you care for a sweet cake?
link
Lysithea
volume_up

Ugh, please do not call me that! But uh...yes. Yes, I would.
