('Last breath', huh?) ... Same here, Crow. Glad to have you back on the team.

(The resemblance is even more apparent up close.)

But for now... I'm just happy you're back with Class VII. Back where you belong.

Heh. Keep rackin' your brain like that and smoke'll start coming out of your ears.

('Last breath', huh?) ... Same here, Crow. Glad to have you back on the team.

Consider this info payment. As thanks for the battle. Don't expect any interest, all right?

Hey, don't go spacing out now, Rean. There's a big, bad Divine Knight for us to beat, AND we gotta sort out that mess with Osborne. ... In other words, we have our work cut out for us. Let's get started, yeah?

Let's move on. For now, just keep looking toward what's ahead of us, got it? We're going to grab that bright future with both hands.

Crow... If a Rivalry is, at its core, a battle between Divine Knights... then what about the Awakeners?

I have this strange feeling the tables would be turned if we were betting. It almost seems like you let me win.

(That masked man... there's no way that could be Crow.)

(When the Great Twilight ends, Crow and Millium will... No. I can't be certain that's what will happen. It's not like there's a precedent. We have to move forward. I need to remain optimistic.)

You got a 50 mira coin I can borrow?

You've definitely grown, but you've still got plenty of room for improvement - especially when it comes to piloting Valimar. So unless you're up for another beatdown, I suggest you get to work on fixing that.

Crow shot you! You're supposed to be dead! But in the end, he couldn't avenge his grandfather, he didn't get revenge on you...! Was everything he did... Was his whole life for NOTHING?!

Dang. I'm almost outta sweets to bet. ... Yo, Rean. Wanna lend me some? I'll give you twice as many back, I swear.

Over in a blink, huh? That carries a lot of weight, coming from you.

Ouch... Should've seen that coming. You're picking this up so quickly it's insane. ... Too insane. You're not a beginner at all, are you?

Crow Armbrust... He was actually a year ahead of us, like Instructor Towa. It was only for a short time, but he joined our class. We did all sorts of things together... field studies, the school festival...

You just sit back and rest easy. Time I showed you some dual-wielding pistol perfection!

When did he get this into my pocket? He could've just GIVEN it to me when we were sitting together... but I guess this is a much more Crow approach.

Dang. I'm almost outta sweets to bet. ... Yo, Rean. Wanna lend me some? I'll give you twice as many back, I swear.

This won't be like two years ago when it was three-on-one. If you're doing this alone, I'll represent Class VII by myself. There are some things that can only be said through the clash of blades. ...Even if you are using guns.

So you were playing dumb from the very start? All so you could hustle me? Forget 'Crow'. We should start calling you 'Shark' instead.

... Fine. But let me make just one thing clear to you. You're not pathetic. You're our friend. A fellow member of Class VII. A rival whose shadow I've long struggled to emerge from.

I guess all their feelings have become a part of me at this point. My classmates', Valimar's... probably even yours, Crow.

But wouldn't you rather feel like you earned it? Come on, what do you say?

Just wanna check... how that guy's doing.

I remember everything you did to help me... There's a whole lot you and I need to talk about, but it doesn't look like we have the time.

So one way or another, you'll be coming back with us, Crow!

And above all, why are you wearing that mask?!

Heh. Don't get all soppy on me, man. But we can forget the challenge we're facing for a while. It's not going to jinx things.

Exactly. We're gonna make it through this thing.

*sigh* Someday, I'm going to admire something you did and you won't be able to ruin it by opening your mouth.

Well, glad to hear it. Guess it was worth putting my cooking skills to the test after all.

Haha... I get the feeling that in order to be that popular, I'd need to BE ol' Crow.

Dang. I'm almost outta sweets to bet. ... Yo, Rean. Wanna lend me some? I'll give you twice as many back, I swear.

You feel it too, right? The knowledge that our destiny's comin' in hot...

If we ever get the chance, let's play again, hear me? Vantage Masters, some other game... Whatever's fine. I hope you're ready to lose.

How 'bout you try gettin' good?

Haha... Aw, screw it. I gotta pay all that interest back one way or another, right?

Hah! Ya got me there. Learning somethin' from you might be a nice change of pace for once. Well? Don't let me stop you. Teach away... 'Instructor Rean'.

Tell me, Rean. Exactly what part of 'invite someone' don't you understand? It really isn't that hard. Man, what would you have done if I wasn't free?

Hey, now. No need to give me that look. I figured I was gonna find you busy thinking everything over like your life depended on it. And what do you know? I was right.

I'll clear a path. You focus on rescuing him!

Give it a shot! I think you'll like it. Just don't let it distract you TOO much from becoming a better knight pilot, okay? - Crow

Hah... Y'think I'd be used to this by now... Guess karma really is a bitch... At least this time... our power... can live on through you...

Come on out, Azure Siegfried!

I'm just happy you had a good time. I know I did. Thanks for coming along for the ride.

Attaboy, Rean! You've got this!
