1 125 Ah, Shulk.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
2 125 What were you looking at?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
3 125 Wow... What a view.[XENO:n ] It's nice to see the capital like this.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
4 125 Being able to see it from here, it's enough to make me...tense up.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
5 125 In all honesty, it's making me consider[XENO:n ] my position and standing.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
6 125 I see...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
7 125 My brethren, who transformed into[XENO:n ] Telethia back then...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
8 125 And those who survived, feeling the sadness[XENO:n ] that seeped into this land...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
9 125 And then, my father and brother's expectations...[XENO:n ] Calling me 'the hope of the High Entia'...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
10 125 I must be an empress worthy of taking on[XENO:n ] that mantle... But I don't know how...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
11 125 Much as I hate to admit it... I have not been[XENO:n ] able to find the right answer yet.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
12 125 Melia...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
13 125 Shulk, you of all people[XENO:n ] must surely understand?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
14 125 You, who secured a future for all of us[XENO:n ] in that decisive battle![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
15 125 You know, I've been thinking a lot lately...[XENO:n ] About what my visions were.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
16 125 Oh?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
17 125 The future that Zanza wanted...[XENO:n ] That was certainly one of the things I saw.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
18 125 But we've fought to deny that future,[XENO:n ] and in doing so forged our own path.[XENO:n ] That's part of it too.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
19 125 ...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
20 125 But...now that I can no longer see them,[XENO:n ] I find myself doubting.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
21 125 Were we... Were we really, actually[XENO:n ] determining our own fate all along...?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
22 125 Well...it's a good question.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
23 125 But look, you have saved me more[XENO:n ] times than I can count![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
24 125 That did not come about because of your visions![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
25 125 You used your own judgement,[XENO:n ] and you chose to act, did you not?![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
26 125 And thanks to that, I believe I've grown[XENO:n ] as an individual as well![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
27 125 ...Hah![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
28 125 Wha- I hardly think I said anything funny![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
29 125 I'm sorry, you're right.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
30 125 I want...my actions to have meaning, too.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
31 125 Not to craft Zanza's future...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
32 125 Nor defy him and bend the world[XENO:n ] to a future of *our* design...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
33 125 But to give the freedom to choose to all[XENO:n ] beings that call this world home.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
34 125 Freedom to choose, huh...?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
35 125 What would my father and brother[XENO:n ] wish for, I wonder...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
36 125 I don't think you need mystic visions[XENO:n ] to work that out.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
37 125 Hm?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
38 125 They'd just want you to be happy. Right?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
39 125 Ah...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
40 125 ...Hahah. My gloom is no match for you, Shulk.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
41 125 It's just as you say.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
42 125 To become the hope of the High Entia[XENO:n ] is a fate I choose for myself...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
43 125 Those were the words Father imparted to me.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
44 125 There is no need to fear...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
45 125 That is how my brother encouraged me.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
46 125 I've been so impatient and homesick,[XENO:n ] I nearly forgot those most important words...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
47 125 I can hear Father...lecturing me even now,[XENO:n ] chiding me for my foolishness.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
48 125 I give you my thanks, Shulk.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
49 125 It's nothing.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
50 125 To lack clear-cut answers[XENO:n ] is hardly a sin...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
51 125 But a sin it would be to cease searching[XENO:n ] for those answers altogether.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
52 125 For the High Entia who live on[XENO:n ] in this land...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
53 125 Nay, not only the High Entia...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
54 125 For the sake of all the people of this world,[XENO:n ] that they may decide the future as equals.[XENO:n ] That is the vision...I choose to guide me.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
55 125 *That*...is the future I wish for.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
56 125 Yeah. If anyone can make it happen,[XENO:n ] it's you.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
57 125 But I won't lie to you - the road ahead[XENO:n ] will be long and arduous.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
58 125 I hope...you won't mind me lending a hand?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
59 125 After all, that's the future I want too.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
60 125 Shulk...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
61 125 Indeed. It'll be my pleasure.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
