Hi, Flayn. Have the Four Saints caught your fancy?

Flayn

Hello there, Claude. No, not particularly. I was merely looking.
link
Claude

I see. In any case, do you mind if I ask you a little something? It's about your family's origin.
link
Flayn

This again? There is truly nothing of interest to discuss on that topic.
link
Claude

Aw, but when you try to change the subject like that, it drives me mad with curiosity!
link
Claude

That said, taking a secret by force isn't my style. That's why I devised a different approach. Relentless nagging.

Flayn

Might I suggest giving up entirely?

Flayn

Truth be told, my brother has asked that I not speak of my background to anyone.

Truth be told, my brother has asked that I not speak of my background to anyone.
link
Flayn

Truth be told, my brother forbade me to speak of my background to anyone.
link
Flayn

And I do not plan on betraying his trust, even now.
link
Claude
volume_up

I thought it might be something like that. Oh well. Guess I'd better give up on trying to get you to tell me yourself.
link
Claude
volume_up

Instead...why don't I tell you about the theory I've come up with?
link
Flayn
volume_up

You've concocted a theory, have you? I suppose there is no harm in listening to it.
link
Claude

I did a bit of investigating into the Crests that you and Seteth bear.
link
Claude
volume_up

Seteth's is the Major Crest of Cichol, and yours is the Major Crest of Cethleann.
link
Flayn
volume_up

Where did you learn of this?
link
Claude
volume_up

Oh, I just took a peek at some records by a renowned Crest scholar. I'd rather not say more than that.
link
Claude
volume_up

Anyway, my point is that I don't think I've ever heard of two siblings each bearing the Major Crests of a pair of saints.
link
Claude
volume_up

If the legends are true, then Saint Cichol was Saint Cethleann's father, wasn't he?
link
Claude
volume_up

Which means, if you and Seteth were the descendants of Saint Cethleann...
link
Claude
volume_up

That would explain how you two came to possess Cichol and Cethleann's Crests!
link
Flayn
volume_up

You mean to suggest that my brother and I are the children's children's children of Cethleann?
link
Claude
volume_up

That about sums it up.
link
Flayn
volume_up

An interesting theory, to say the least. But surely you must know...
link
Flayn
volume_up

Saint Cethleann was never married. There are no tales of her having ever had children.
link
Claude
volume_up

Sure, sure, but the possibilities are endless. It's not like legends are known for their accuracy.
link
Claude

But based on your reaction, I guess I'm probably following a bad lead here.
