Dialogue

Accepting the quest:

Gosetsu: I will not pursue her. It is for her to think on our master's words and recognize the futility of her course.

Gosetsu: Those, at least, are my thoughts upon the matter. Yours may be different. Should you wish to give chase, I will not bar your path.

Gosetsu: ...We each have but one life, and it is not to be spent recklessly in pursuit of our goals. I pray she realizes this soon...

Searching for Yugiri:

Yugiri: ...Did Gosetsu send you to stop me?

Yugiri: Then you came of your own free will? I should be surprised if you agreed with my chosen course. No one else did.

Yugiri: But it is not as fanciful as they would have you believe. Scant moments ago, I received the crown prince's itinerary from one of our spies in the castle.

Yugiri: 'Twould seem that Zenos has no desire to remain in Doma any longer than necessary. He wishes to inspect the Moon Gates this very eve.

Yugiri: His impatience is to our advantage. He arrived without warning and gave Yotsuyu no time to prepare. The whole castle is in state of upheaval.

Yugiri: To avoid any delay, he has declined a full escort, and will be traveling with no more than a handful of soldiers. The kami could not have blessed us with more auspicious circumstances. I will kill him, [Forename]. I will.

Q: What will you say?

A1: You mean we will kill him.
Yugiri: ...Or die trying. You understand the risks.
Yugiri: Forgive me. Of course you do. Mayhap better than I.
Yugiri: ...But are you sure?

A2: Not alone.
Yugiri: I know the odds. I know what he is capable of, and that in an open confrontation, I will likely die.
Yugiri: But if I do not─if I succeed, then countless lives will be saved. Doma, Ala Mhigo─everything will change! One life for that world is a price I would pay a thousand times over!
Yugiri: ...What? What is it? Why are you looking at me like that?
Yugiri: ...Do you mean to join me?

Yugiri: Thank you. Thank you. I...I cannot well express what this means to me.

Yugiri: We have much to discuss, but we can do so on the way.

Yugiri: Yuzuka Manor is some distance from here. We must hurry!

Isse: ...Stay calm. No one knows you were here. No one knows you saw anything.

Isse: No one knows you overheard two rebels plotting...to kill the crown prince...

Isse: Gah! Stupid, stupid, stupid! You know how this ends! And they only have themselves to blame! You have to tell them. You have to...

Rendezvousing with Yugiri at Yuzuka Manor:

Yugiri: This is far enough. Let us discuss our plan of attack...
