Yuri

You came. I'm sure you already know where this is headed.
link
Yuri
volume_up

Seriously? I thought you were a little sharper than that.
link
Yuri
volume_up

Don't toy with me, friend. Though I suppose you've always had that tendency, haven't you?
link
Yuri
volume_up

All right, whatever. I'll get right to it.
link
Yuri
volume_up

You're the archbishop of the Church of Seiros now. That's a pretty esteemed title you've got.
link
Yuri
volume_up

You're the emperor's favored subject now. That's a pretty place you're sitting at.
link
Yuri
volume_up

You're the ruler of Fódlan now. That makes you the most powerful person in the world.
link
Yuri
volume_up

Next to your brilliance, I'm not much more than a flightless sparrow.
link
Yuri
volume_up

All I've got are my dreams, a handful of people working for me, and a pittance of gold. Well, and my undeniable charms, of course.
link
Yuri
volume_up

So I've got to know...is there any room in your bright and shining world for someone like me?
link
Yuri
volume_up

Heh. Always straight to the point with you. I should know that by now.
link
Yuri
volume_up

Well...here we go, then. I want you to take this. Consider it my token of thanks—a repayment for all you've done for me—if that makes you smile.
link
Yuri
volume_up

Forgotten, have you? Well, I suppose it has been five years, after all.
link
Yuri
volume_up

You backed me up when I needed some help, even though I wouldn't admit it. Bit of a turf war, if you recall.
link
Yuri
volume_up

I always repay what's owed. It's how I sleep at night.
link
Yuri
volume_up

But if you really don't need it, I've got another idea.
link
Yuri
volume_up

I should have expected that kind of answer from you. I suppose we can drop the pretense entirely.
link
Yuri
volume_up

Maybe it's more of an agreement. In return for this ring, I ask for you.
link
Yuri
volume_up

Don't play coy with me. Or maybe you're just dragging me over the coals for fun...
link
Yuri
volume_up

I can't recall how many times others have asked me this. Being the one extending the invite... It certainly isn't easy.
link
Yuri
volume_up

Heh. This seems a rather cruel way to treat someone coming to you with his heart in his hands, don't you think?
link
Yuri
volume_up

I used to feel like saving the life of even one person who needed it would be enough.
link
Yuri
volume_up

But I've set my sights even higher. A future in which nobody has to die from something as awful as poverty.
link
Yuri
volume_up

I know it's a dream worth reaching for, however grand it might be.
link
Yuri
volume_up

And you are truly special. I feel like, together, that dream could be made a reality.
link
Yuri
volume_up

It may never happen, but it's important to try. Anyway, I'm just a person like anyone. I'll die, just like anyone.
link
Yuri
volume_up

Whenever that happens, someone will have to take over as boss. I've got that all lined up already.
link
Yuri
volume_up

And so long as my people keep living with the same tenacity I've taught them, I've no doubt my dream will live on. Whether or not I'm around to see to it.
link
Yuri
volume_up

My name might fade into the dust, but my dream will remain. For the longest time, that was more than enough...
link
Yuri
volume_up

But now I've come to want something else. When I go, I want someone around to write my name in my old notebook.
link
Yuri
volume_up

I can't see anyone else more suited to the task than you.
link
Yuri
volume_up

What's wrong? Did I say something strange?
link
Yuri
volume_up

I just want to make sure things are set up properly. You never know when it'll be my time.
link
Yuri
volume_up

Heh, I suppose I did just talk a fair bit about death during a proposal, didn't I? Normally I'm much more charming...
link
Yuri
volume_up

I think you get it, anyway. So? Will you accept my offer?
link
Before I say I do...
link
Yuri
volume_up

Yeah? Something else you want?
link
What's your real name?
link
Yuri
volume_up

Well, you certainly don't forget, huh?
link
Yuri
volume_up

I've always kept it private out of necessity. Couldn't have such a secret being spread around, after all.
link
Yuri
volume_up

If there's anyone I'll tell, it's you. Listen closely, now.
