Eugen attempts to reconnect with his daughter, but their interaction proves that some wounds take a long time to heal.
Black Knight
Haaah!
Enforcer
Ugh, dammit!
Black Knight
Despite how much they boast, the enforcers don't pose much of a threat.
Black Knight
Aside from their pipsqueak of a captain, this doesn't even qualify as a way to kill time.
Eugen
Oy, Apollo, you've gotten so skilled in no time flat!
Black Knight
...
Black Knight
In no time flat? You make it sound as if you've been watching over me for a while.
Eugen
Aah... Well... you really have grown to be an amazing fighter!
Black Knight
To your credit. Growing up without a father allowed me to gather unique experiences.
Eugen
I see...
Io
Hey, Rackam. I feel kind of sorry for Eugen...
Rackam
Yeah, but this is one of those situations where things are best kept in the family, ya know?
Rackam
This kind of quarrel is not somethin' you want to get in the middle of, missy.
Katalina
Everyone goes through a rebellious phase, but I think she's taking it a little far.
Rosetta
Yes, but it's clear something happened between them in the past.
Rosetta
More than those two, your own rebellious phase has my interest piqued, Katalina. Hehe.
Lyria
Katalina had a rebellious phase too?
Katalina
Huh! Well, um...
Vyrn
Katalina bein' a rowdy one... I can't even picture it!
Katalina
I suppose there was a time when I was tough to handle, but it was quick, and I got over it quickly.
Katalina
But now's not the time for that!
Katalina
We have to deal with these imperial soldiers! Get ready, everyone! A-and stop smirking!
The Black Knight surmised that Orchis was being held captive in Mephorash, a city on Ravi Island, and formerly the capital prior to Erste having become an empire. The Black Knight hinted that Freesia had chosen the former capital as her base for a specific reason.
Rackam
Keep it up! The Grandcypher should come into view any second now.
Rackam
Oh yeah... After we board the ol' gal, where are we headed to?
Rackam
You said you knew where they took Orchis, yeah?
Black Knight
Yes. That doll is most likely with Freesia in Mephorash, a city on Ravi Island.
Katalina
Mephorash? Not the capital of the Erste Empire, Agastia?
Black Knight
Mephorash is the imperial capital. Or, more accurately, was the capital.
Black Knight
Mephorash was the seat of the kingdom, back before Erste was an empire. And far before I allied myself under the imperial banner.
Io
Huh? So why are they in that old town then? It's not the capital anymore, right?
Black Knight
The current capital, Agastia, means nothing to that woman.
Black Knight
I don't believe she would establish a base in a city she finds so insignificant.
Rackam
Then that means we're headed to Ravi Island next?
Black Knight
Yes. But first we have to finish our escape.
Enforcer
Black Knight! This is the end of the line for you!
Black Knight
I won't grant mercy to my enemies. If you aim to get in my way, then prepare yourself for the grave!
The Black Knight tends to treat Lyria nicer than the other crew members. Lyria wonders aloud why that might be.
Vyrn
Hey, you guys. I've been thinking for a while now...
Vyrn
The Black Knight is always so nice to Lyria. Ain't it kind of odd?
Lyria
No. It's not that she's being friendly with me.
Vyrn
Really? She treats you different than everybody else.
Lyria
But I don't think she's seeing me when she looks at me.
Lyria
It's like she's trying to speak to someone else when she talks to me. That's the feeling I get.
Lyria brings her hand to the gem on her dress.
She wonders who or what the Black Knight could be seeing in her.
