Lorenz! Lorenz! Look!

What is it, Hilda? Ah, a letter. From your brother?
link
Hilda

That's right. Though part of me thinks it's some stranger imitating my brother's handwriting. He's never given me this much praise.
link
Hilda

"Hilda, you've learnt the value of persistence." "You're really maturing." Stuff like that.

Hilda

Usually his letters are like, "I'm worried about you," and, "Stop being so lazy."
link
Lorenz

Since I have fought by your side, I can assure you that his praise is genuine and entirely deserved.
link
Hilda
volume_up

I've written about fighting in plenty of letters. Why's he so gushy this time around?
link
Lorenz
volume_up

I would venture to guess that your depictions of battle are more passionate than before.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

It's no surprise that such authenticity would resonate with a veteran warrior like your brother.
link
Hilda
volume_up

If that's true, I have you to thank. You've inspired me to throw myself into battle.
link
Hilda
volume_up

Does everyone think I'm a tough warrior now? I don't want to be stuck with their high expectations.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

Would that be so terrible? You are gifted, you know.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

Not to say that your lackadaisical nature has failed to endear itself to me.
link
Hilda
volume_up

I'll choose to take that as a compliment.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

Speaking of letters...did you keep your promise?
link
Lorenz
volume_up

Did you, uh, mention me?
link
Hilda
volume_up

I did! I told my brother all about you.
link
Hilda
volume_up

I said you were a uniquely gifted leader, who could inspire people to be their best selves. And I said that you'll be a real asset to the Alliance.

Hilda

I said you were a uniquely gifted leader, who could inspire people to be their best selves. And I said that you'll be a real asset in this new era.
link
Hilda

I also told him how I wished you could join our family. He responded that he'd be honored to call you his brother.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

Truly?! To have such a valiant brother would be beyond my wildest expectations!
link
Hilda
volume_up

Um—Lorenz. You know what I mean about you joining our family, right?
link
Lorenz
volume_up

I believe I do. And I confess, if I am correct, that the same thought has preoccupied me as well.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

But you must forgive me. Now is not the time.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

Before we can consider our own future, we must first end this war. We must secure a peaceful world.
link
Hilda
volume_up

And if we do attain a peaceful world, then what? Come on! Just say it.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

As much as I'd like to grant that request, I cannot. This is something that will deeply affect our lives.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

It must be said at the proper time and place, with the most artfully chosen words, and the perfect offering.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

I am Lorenz Hellman Gloucester, after all!

I'm not usually one for waiting around... But maybe I'll make an exception in his case.
