The Cause of Sorrow

Everyone's in such a festive mood. I feel a bit out of my element here.

I can't help but worry something might happen while we're all distracted... After all, our enemies are always plotting.

Still, this air of levity is much more agreeable than the grim atmosphere of late.

By the way, have you chosen our house's representative for the White Heron Cup?

If nobody else comes to mind, I'm willing to take up the challenge, Professor.

(Should I choose Edelgard as our house representative in the White Heron Cup dance contest...)

Well, I suppose we should practice, then. Shall we?

How was that? I believe I've improved my technique.

I knew victory was inescapable. And...you believed in me too.

Losing is never easy, even at something as insignificant as dance. I suppose I should have trained harder...

It seems the dastards who set Remire Village aflame have yet to be apprehended.

Monsters. Trampling mercilessly over innocent lives. They deserve a gruesome end...

I... I'm sorry. Please ignore my troubled ramblings. Was something the matter? Something to do with the White Heron Cup?

Professor, I beg of you. Please, do not choose me as our house representative. I am utterly serious.

(Should I choose Dimitri as our house representative in the White Heron Cup dance contest...)

I am in the thick of battle, so battle I must. Will you help me prepare, Professor?

How...was that? I perhaps did not offend as much as usual, but...I do not like our chances.

It was solely thanks to your patient instruction that we won, Professor. In all honestly, I'm still in a state of shock.

I knew it was beyond my reach. I am so sorry that I let us down, Professor...

Someone entered the old chapel... I think the townsfolk used it for feasts and such in the past.

With that whole Tomas business, you can't blame the church for being on edge.

Considering this recent rash of strange incidents, I wonder if having a ball is really the best idea...

And then there's the White Heron Cup. Sheesh. What poor sap are you enlisting to represent our house, Teach?

Teach, this is all your doing. Step up and take responsibility. You've got to help me practice my dance moves.

My legs aren't as unwieldy as they were before, I think... If I keep this up, I might do not terribly.

Wow, I never thought I'd win a dance competition. I've clearly uncovered a hidden talent!

Well, at least you can't say it's unexpected. You're a brilliant strategist, Teach, but you really have no eye for dancing talent.

Another month full of chaos. I've barely had time to catch my breath.

What is the objective of Tomas and his ilk?

And what makes Flayn so special—does that not bother you?

On a lighter note. I've heard you've yet to choose a class representative for the White Heron Cup.

It's not something I'm interested in, but if no one else wants to do it, then I will shoulder the burden.

(Should I choose Hubert as our house representative in the White Heron Cup dance contest...)

To think I'd be rehearsing my dance moves, of all things. Give me some advice, Professor.

A little less grotesque now? Maybe.

Unbelievable. I never imagined I'd actually win.

The obvious result, of course.

Ah, the ball. It reminds me of my first such event, back in the Imperial capital.

It was held by my father, the prime minister. I really showed off my dancing skills! Everyone was quite impressed with me.

Professor, uh... Do you know how to dance? I could really use some guidance.

You really can do everything! I am envious of you, if you will pardon my frankness.

Ah! Did you see that? I have done my family proud!

I thought this might happen. I am sorry I volunteered in the first place. You should have chosen Edelgard.

You know, Professor, I used to think I would be comfortable with all manner of experiments, so long as they provided usable results.

But when I heard of Solon's work, well, I realized I'd not considered the moral and philosophical limits of what "all manner of experiments" might mean.

Urk... Sorry. I'm not great with blood, even when I'm just thinking about it. I feel a bit ill now.

Let us change the subject and settle my stomach. I assume you've heard about the dance competition?

Have you chosen a representative yet? Or... Oh my. You haven't, have you? Have you come to tell me I'm to be it?

(Should I choose Linhardt as our house representative in the White Heron Cup dance contest...)

Professor? Are you here to practice with me for the dance contest?

I don't enjoy a bit of this, you know. Entirely too much standing up and moving around for my taste. But if I'm going to do it, I may as well be in it to win.

Although I was against the whole endeavor, I must be honest and say that I am quite pleased that I won. But I won't do anything like this again, thank you.

I suspected this might be the end result. Uh... All that time I could have been reading...or fishing... or napping...or...

I can't believe this... I'm so angry right now!

First it's the Death Knight, and now Tomas, but neither of them are in custody!

I can't stand the thought of such evil lurking in the world. We have to do something about this! I have to do something about this!

Ugh. Sorry about that, Professor. I'm just so frustrated right now. I need something to take my mind off things.

That reminds me! If you're looking for a volunteer, I'd be happy to represent our class in the White Heron Cup. I'm an excellent dancer.

Hey, Professor! Did you want to practice dancing with me?

What did you think? Pretty perfect, right?

Aww yeah! I knew I could do it! Thanks for the distraction, Professor.

I actually lost? I can't believe this. Now I feel even worse than I did before...

The ball. A grim reminder of my sad reality.

The other nobles will be fine, I'm sure. They've all been to events like this before.

But me? I'm a noble, and I've never even been close to one of these things!

What is a White Heron Cup, anyway? Wh-what?! A dance competition? That's terrifying!

W-we need a representative for our class? Please, anyone but Bernie!

Professor! Will you give me some dancing lessons?

Was that OK? A little reassuring, at least? Maybe?

Who would've thought I'd have a talent for dancing? Heh-heh... Aw, this actually feels nice.

Knew it from the start, Bernie! No chance. Hmph...

I wonder if Remire Village will ever be the same again. How do you recover from such a terrible event?

So many dead, so much destroyed... I can't see how the whole village doesn't just end up abandoned.

Our class was also sent out to help put the village in order. But then...

How was that? Was my dancing everything you hoped for and more? I certainly enjoyed it. We simply must do it again. Soon.

We did it! I couldn't be happier, Professor. I loved dancing in front of an audience again.

Ugh. What a letdown... I'm gonna go find a hole to hide in and not come out for a few weeks.

Dancing of Fódlan is not the same as dancing from Brigid. The reason is maybe that the music has many differences.

In Brigid, dancing is different for each person. Our dancing has vigor and ferocity. There is no speech of technique for our dancing.

I have now much more knowledge of Fódlan dance. How is my dancing, Professor?

I have grabbed victory! I give gratitude for your great teachings, Professor!

I have had failure. I did not work with enough hardness. I feel a large shame.

We won. Are you happy now?

You see? Now you know it was a mistake to choose me.

I've been practicing as best I can, Professor, but do you think you could give me a little help?

Was that all right? I'm completely self-taught, so I really have no idea.

I really won?! I can't believe it! Oh, Lonato, I wish you could have seen me!

I definitely wasn't cut out for this. I'm so sorry to let you down, Professor.

One and two and three and four... Got it! I'm pretty good at this.

Check me out! All I needed was the attention of a few girls and boom! It's like I've been dancing my whole life.

Yeesh... I really thought I could pull it off. Maybe it was a lack of practice...

How was that? I hope it's good enough to win...

Mercedes locked me in her room for hours earlier...

She was slathering pounds of makeup onto my face. Saying something or other about the ball. It really wore me out...

Professor, I admit—I have two left feet when it comes to dancing. Do you have time to give me any pointers?

How did I do? Was I awkward? I felt awkward.

Can you believe we won? Maybe I'm a natural, after all!

I'm sorry, Professor. My two left feet were especially problematic, after all.

She was slathering pounds of makeup onto my face. Saying something or other about the ball. It really wore me out...

Ah. The long-awaited ball. Finally, an opportunity to showcase my exquisite skills on the dance floor.

These skills were ingrained in me when I was a boy. My hands and feet move on pure instinct.

From what I hear, the White Heron Cup will be held just prior to the ball.

Say no more, Professor. I would consider it an honor to represent our class!

Rehearsals will not be necessary. But, if you insist, I can give you a small taste of what is to come.

Well, Professor? Are these not the most exquisitely refined moves you have ever witnessed?

It was a foregone conclusion! Am I or am I not Lorenz Hellman Gloucester?

To think I would suffer such a defeat at dancing. My father is liable to disinherit me.

The ball is coming up soon! I am so excited!

I can't wait to fill up on food while everyone's dancing. I even heard there'll be some prime cuts of meat!

Apparently there's supposed to be a dance contest too. I think it's called the White Heron Cup.

Who's gonna represent our class? I can do it if you haven't picked someone else!

Hey, Professor! You wanna teach me some winning dance moves?

That looked pretty good, right? I think I can win this thing!

Winning was even easier than I expected! And did you hear the crowd? They loved me!

I thought the point of dancing was to make people laugh! Oh well, maybe I'll win next time.

Some scary things have been happening lately. I hope that this month, of all months, is peaceful.

The ball is coming up and everything... Although I'm not much of a dancer actually.

I've heard people talk about the White Heron Cup. Do you know who will be representing us?

Professor, can you watch me practice?

Is this how you do it? I'm feeling a little unsteady...

Wow. We won? I guess I'm better at this than I thought.

I knew this would happen. I embarrassed myself in front of everyone.

It's true that Tomas was employed here under the recommendation of House Ordelia.

But that's all I know of the topic. I'd never even seen him prior to enrolling here.

Even when he was supposedly in Ordelia territory, I never once saw him there.

I'm still feeling bothered by all of this, but...there's not much else I can say about it right now.

Right... It's the dance this month, isn't it? I can't see how anyone would be much in the mood for dancing, considering...

Although I suppose the White Heron Cup does sound pretty fun.

Professor, can you supervise my dance rehearsal? If I'm going to do this, I want to win it.

Well? How was I? I figure if I dance with passion and fervor, I'll appear even more mature.

You chose wisely! I gave it my all, and I'm glad it paid off.

I'm so sorry I lost. You put faith in my abilities, and now I've let you down...

A ball? Um, I don't think I'll partake.

There's a dance contest as well? I see. I'll cheer for our class, of course.

So, um... Who will represent our house in the contest?

Did you need something, Professor? I suppose I should p-practice, right?

No, no. That's no good. I can't seem to get a feel for it...

I...I still can't believe it. How could someone like me have possibly won?

I'm sorry that I couldn't do better. I doubt you had high expectations anyway...

It's almost time for the ball! Oooh my, am I excited!

This being a school, we don't have many chances to get dressy.

You're choosing the representative for the dance contest, isn't that right? Choose me! I'm a pro!

Hey, Professor! Care to join me for dance practice?

Phew! I don't think we can possibly lose. Just you wait and see.

Professor, I did it! I'm so happy I think I may literally start to glow!

I'm so sorry, Professor. I really thought we had it in the bag...

I'm glad the Remire Village situation got sorted out. But it's not over yet, is it?

And I can't believe old Tomas turned out to be an enemy. Who can you trust anymore?

The ball? Doesn't matter. I don't dance. I might show up for the food though.

Not that it's got anything to do with me, but have you picked someone to represent us for the White Heron Cup yet?
