'''Alphinaud:''' Ah, [Forename], impeccable timing. We have just received a letter from Lord Hien. | |||

'''Alphinaud:''' Lord Hien requests your presence, and I share his view that you should be on hand at this critical juncture. | |||
''' | '''Alisaie:''' According to the letter, Yotsuyu's memory has yet to return, so it looks like she'll be living out the rest of her days in Doma—assuming the ambassador means to honor the agreement, of course. | ||
'''Alisaie:''' Before we get to that, however, I think it would be wise to assess her condition one last time. If the Domans have missed any change in her mental state, however slight, it would be better if Asahi weren't the one to spot it. | |||
'''Alphinaud''' | '''Alphinaud:''' Agreed. Let us make straightways for the enclave, then. Lord Hien will be waiting. | ||

'''Hien:''' Though I wrote at some length on the subject of the forthcoming exchange, there was one other matter I neglected to mention... | |||
'''Hien:''' It concerns Gosetsu. As you may have observed, he returned from his ordeal rather the worse for wear, and despite his best efforts to conceal his condition─or perhaps because of them—he recently collapsed. | |||
''' | '''Alphinaud:''' Good gods! Is he all right!? | ||

'''Yotsuyu:''' Open wide, now... | |||
''' | '''Gosetsu:''' Please, Tsuyu. I am not so frail that I cannot feed myself. | ||
'''Gosetsu:''' Ah, I grow weary of the taste of gruel... | |||
''' | '''Yotsuyu:''' You don't like it? Can I fetch you something else? | ||
''' | '''Gosetsu:''' Aye. Wine! Or if that is not "wholesome" enough—I don't know... a sweet persimmon from Namai? I enjoyed them in my youth. | ||
''' | '''Yotsuyu:''' A persimmon. | ||
''' | '''Gosetsu:''' Nay, pay me no mind—I am full. Besides, we have guests. | ||
''' | '''Alisaie:''' I hope we are not interrupting your meal. We had heard you were confined to bed, and thought you might welcome some visitors. | ||
'''Gosetsu''': | '''Gosetsu:''' Confined to—A gross exaggeration! | ||
'''Gosetsu:''' A trifle drained from my exertions, perhaps. But with a little rest, I shall be fighting fit again in no time! | |||
'''Yotsuyu''' | '''Yotsuyu:''' Take off your clothes. | ||
''' | '''Alisaie:''' Gosetsu! Is this how you've been spending your time!? | ||
''' | '''Gosetsu:''' My lady, I assure you, this is not— | ||
''' | '''Yotsuyu:''' Off with them. We need to wash you—you stink! | ||
'''Yotsuyu:''' What are all these scars? There are so many of them... | |||
''' | '''Gosetsu:''' A life of battle will leave its mark upon a man... | ||
'''Gosetsu:''' Is something wrong, Tsuyu? | |||
''' | '''Yotsuyu:''' It's nothing. I'm fine. | ||
'''Gosetsu''' | '''Gosetsu:''' Bah, leave me be, woman! I will not be fussed over like some newborn babe! | ||
''' | ====Cutscene==== | ||
'''Hien:''' They make a convincing pair, do they not? On first acquaintance, I would think him a doting grandsire and her a model grandchild. | |||
''' | '''Alphinaud:''' Indeed. Had someone told me a year ago that I would live to bear witness to such a scene, I would have declared them mad. That aside, I am relieved to see Gosetsu has lost none of his spirit. | ||
''' | '''Alisaie:''' But what a turn of events... I mean, for ''her'' to suddenly be watching over ''him''. You couldn't make it up. Although I suppose Gosetsu ''is'' an old man. With the way he charges through life, it can be easy to forget... | ||
''' | '''Hien:''' Aye, he has resisted decrepitude with the same defiance he showed the enemies of Doma. | ||
'''Hien:''' But no matter how adamant his will, no man can carry on forever. He has pushed himself beyond the limits of endurance too many times—even if his health returns, the fact remains: he will never again be the warrior he once was. | |||
'''Hien:''' He has given his all for liege and land, and we will ask no more. | |||
'''Yotsuyu''' | '''Alisaie:''' And what of his nurse? If Yotsuyu is feigning ''that''—well, she certainly has me fooled. | ||
''' | '''???:''' This is no pretense. | ||
''' | '''Alisaie:''' Yugiri. Out of all of us, I would think you the hardest to convince. So... what makes you so sure? | ||
'''Yotsuyu''': | '''Yugiri:''' I have been spying on Yotsuyu from the shadows—waiting for the misstep that would betray her charade for what it was. | ||
'''Yugiri:''' But her mask has never slipped. Not once. She has remained in character from the first. One evening, I watched her as she sat in her chambers, unguarded and alone... | |||
'''Yugiri:''' She had taken the dishes from the cupboard, and was pretending to prepare dinner right there on the tatami. A child's game. | |||
'''Yugiri:''' Even the wariest shinobi would not go to such lengths. I can but conclude that her mind is truly broken. | |||
''' | '''Alisaie:''' ...Well, that's good enough for me—and everyone else, I would hazard. | ||
'''Hien''': | '''Hien:''' Aye, the matter is settled. Yotsuyu will become "Tsuyu," and begin a new life here in Doma. | ||
'''Hien:''' Before that can happen, however, we will need to present her to the ambassador one last time, to prove that her memory is truly gone. | |||
'''Hien:''' But I would not risk parading her in front of our returning conscripts. Her presence at the exchange would only stir up mutinous thoughts. | |||
''' | '''Alisaie:''' Understandably. She as good as fastened the chains around their necks. | ||
''' | '''Hien:''' Aye—which is why I mean to conclude this business with Tsuyu first, out of the sight of my countrymen. Will you help me? | ||
''' | '''Alphinaud:''' We are at your service. There is no higher purpose than the pursuit of peace. | ||

''' | '''Yugiri:''' Even after weeks of surveillance, it was difficult for me to accept that Yotsuyu's condition was genuine... But not as difficult as accepting Gosetsu's affection for her. | ||
''' | '''Alisaie:''' Can you imagine Yotsuyu playing with bowls on the floor? I don't know that we can think of her as the same person anymore... | ||

Journal
- Alphinaud informs you that a letter has arrived from Lord Hien, and after he helpfully summarizes its contents, you glean that your presence is required at the Doman Enclave. Tataru duly promises to mind the fort while you are away, and as you prepare to leave with Alphinaud and Alisaie, you pause to wonder what will unfold across the Ruby Sea: a declaration of peace between Doma and the Empire... or an all-too-predictable return to hostilities.
- You meet Lord Hien at the enclave as planned, only to learn that his letter had omitted mention of a worrying incident involving an ailing Gosetsu. Upon visiting the bedridden samurai, however, you are relieved to find him well on the path to recovery. Yotsuyu, meanwhile, seems much the same as when you last saw her -- a child in a woman's body.
Some time later, a tale told by Yugiri convinces Lord Hien that Yotsuyu's plight is genuine, and he decides to allow her to live out her days in Doma as "Tsuyu." The only obstacle remaining is to present proof of her condition to Asahi, and with this in mind, your allies agree to rendezvous at the enclave docks.
- After and uneventful wait by the skiff, a breathless Lord Hien rushes into view, and it is plain that something is amiss. It seems that Yotsuyu has left the safety of the Kienkan, and according to the testimony of the skiff captain, she has already crossed the river...
Dialogue
Optional
Alisaie: Whatever Asahi is planning, we cannot let him have his way. After all Lord Hien has done, the Empire cannot be suffered to hinder Doma's restoration.
Hancock: More often than not, it seems opportunity is wont to come knocking when the Scions are about. So long as you and yours remain here in Kugane, I'm certain a profitable venture will present itself.
Accepting the Quest (Cutscene)
Alphinaud: Ah, [Forename], impeccable timing. We have just received a letter from Lord Hien. Alphinaud: He writes that the Domans are coordinating their efforts with the Blue Kojin to maintain a constant watch over the Red. Alphinaud: By staying on the lookout for signs of crystal hoarding and the like, they mean to nip any summoning attempts in the bud, thereby satisfying the conditions for peace set down by the ambassador. Alphinaud: For the Garleans' part, the Populares have sent word that a vessel bearing Doman conscripts is soon to arrive in Yanxia. 'Twould seem that the prisoner exchange is to proceed as planned. Alphinaud: Lord Hien requests your presence, and I share his view that you should be on hand at this critical juncture.
Alisaie: According to the letter, Yotsuyu's memory has yet to return, so it looks like she'll be living out the rest of her days in Doma—assuming the ambassador means to honor the agreement, of course. Alisaie: Before we get to that, however, I think it would be wise to assess her condition one last time. If the Domans have missed any change in her mental state, however slight, it would be better if Asahi weren't the one to spot it.
Alphinaud: Agreed. Let us make straightways for the enclave, then. Lord Hien will be waiting. Alphinaud: I trust you will cope in our absence, Tataru?
