Oh. Hey, Teach. What brings you to the Goddess Tower?
link
Claude
volume_up

You know what, never mind. The answer is as clear as day. You couldn't bear the ball anymore and simply had to escape.
link
Claude
volume_up

There's nothing wrong with admitting you're not comfortable in a noisy crowd.
link
Claude
volume_up

Really, I get it. I'm the same way.
link
I don't believe it.
link
Claude
volume_up

Ha! See right through me, do you? But I really do mean it. Parties aren't for me.
link
Claude
volume_up

Music and fun are all well and good, but those dances the nobles do are...something else.
link
Claude
volume_up

I was never really taught to do that sort of thing. My upbringing was...lacking in certain ways.
link
Claude
volume_up

Even so. I may have secured a fancy new title, but who I am on the inside... Well, status alone can't change that.
link
Claude
volume_up

That's a bit of an aside, though. Say, Teach... have you heard the legends about this tower?
link
Claude
volume_up

They say if a man and a woman pray for the same thing here, on this night, the goddess will grant their wish without fail.
link
Why tonight?
link
Claude
volume_up

Who knows? Maybe it has something to do with celebrating the anniversary of the monastery's completion.
link
Claude
volume_up

Maybe the goddess comes down from above on this night and this night alone to celebrate with us. Even goddesses like to party, right?
link
Claude
volume_up

The truth is that it's just a legend the students here like to tell. It's not based on any real facts.
link
Claude
volume_up

But I suppose it would be a waste to pass up a chance of having our wish granted. What do you say, Teach? Care to try?
link
What would we pray for?
link
Claude
volume_up

Hm... Let's see... How about we pray for our ambitions to come true?
link
Claude
volume_up

You don't exactly seem like the selfish type, but even you must have an ambition or two.
link
Claude
volume_up

That's what I thought. It's the same for everyone.
link
Claude
volume_up

Even if you're not aware of it, I'm sure there's something your heart of hearts wishes for.
link
Claude
volume_up

That's what I thought. It's the same for everyone.
link
Claude
volume_up

No one is ever completely satisfied. Everyone has something they long for. Otherwise, what's the point of it all?
link
Claude
volume_up

Of course, same goes for me. Without even realizing it, I found myself holding tight to some pretty big ambitions.
link
Claude
volume_up

If you would... I would love for you to share in those ambitions with me, Teach.
link
Claude
volume_up

But all that aside, let's get started. Let's pray to the goddess before she tuckers out for the evening. OK... Here goes.
link
Claude
volume_up

Oh, divine Goddess! Hear our prayers! We beseech you and your radiance! Please, grant us that which we seek!
link
Claude
volume_up

Huh.
link
Claude
volume_up

I think that should do it. The goddess'll make our dreams come true now, yeah?
link
I wonder.
link
Claude
volume_up

At any rate, we've done all we can. Whether we actually believe our dreams will come true or not is up to us.
link
Claude
volume_up

I suppose we should head back soon. I'm sure everyone is looking for you.
link
Claude
volume_up

Just promise to spare a dance for me. OK, Teach? I swear, so long as it's not one of those goofy noble dances, I am a treasure on the dance floor!
