## Character Stories

### A Strange Mage

*A boy in strange garb comes to speak with Serenoa, claiming to be the grandson of the archmage Grandante...*

* **Wolffort Soldier**: Halt! This is the encampment of House Wolffort.
* **Oddly Dressed Youth**: Splendid! For it's Lord Wolffort himself that I came to see. Lead me to him, my good man!
* **Wolffort Soldier**: Hah! Big words from a shady-looking fellow in that ridiculous garb. Begone at once!
* **Oddly Dressed Youth**: *Ridiculous*!? Why, I'll have you know that these robes are a treasured relic of...
* **Wolffort Soldier**: Did I ask about your robes!? I said begone!
* **Oddly Dressed Youth**: Wait, I say!
* ...Ho there! Lord Wolffort! Can you hear me!?"
* **Serenoa**: What's all the commotion here?
* **Wolffort Soldier**: This strange lad demands an audience with you, Lord Serenoa, and stubbornly refuses to leave.
* **Narve**: The name's Narve.
* **Narve**: Grandson and last disciple of the archmage Grandante, here to offer my services!
* **Geela**: ...The archmage Grandante?
* **Geela**: Forgive me, but in all my years of studying the arcane arts, I've never once heard that name.
* **Narve**: You haven't? Oh, I see... I suppose you won't have.
* **Geela**: Ah, I'm...sorry if I offended you.
* **Narve**: You needn't apologize, miss. Let's start over, shall we?
* **Narve**: Let me show you just what the final disciple of the archmage Grandante can do!
* **Wolffort Soldier**: Incredible!
* **Narve**: Well? What do you think?
* **Geela**: I've never seen anything quite like it. Were you born with magic like this? Or perhaps...
* **Narve**: My illustrious grandfather—the archmage Grandante, that is—taught me all I know!
* **Narve**: Please, let me join your army! I'm most certain my sorcery could avail you to no end!
* **Geela**: Lord Serenoa, this boy possesses remarkable talent. I must admit he would make a formidable addition to our forces.
* **Serenoa**: Thank you, Geela. Narve, I welcome you to House Wolffort.
* **Narve**: Thank you, my lord! My magic will change the world—just you wait and see!
* **Wolffort Soldier**: Lord Serenoa.
* **Wolffort Soldier**: That...strangely dressed boy requests an audience with you.
* **Wolffort Soldier**: He says he was driven from his home with nowhere to go...
* **Serenoa**: Hmm... I will hear what he has to say.
* **Narve**: Are you the lord of House Wolffort? I am Narve, from Hyzante!
* **Narve**: My grandfather was a great sorcerer, and I inherited a school of magic from him.
* **Narve**: But I was chased out by that deceitful Medica who claimed I disobeyed the teachings...
* **Narve**: I was at a loss of what to do when I saw you were recruiting magical soldiers...so here I am.
* **Serenoa**: If you cannot return to your home, then you are welcome to put your powers to use here.
* **Narve**: Woohoo! Thank you, sir!

### Achievements Erased

*Narve speaks with Geela about her home of Hyzante and his grandfather's place in their history...*

* **Narve**: I'll prove that memorizing all those long words was worth it!
* **Narve**: That should do it! You should be able to use that arm just fine in no time.
* **Wolffort Soldier**: Many thanks, lad. You truly are a talented one.
* **Wolffort Soldier**: My apologies for treating you like an intruder the other day...
* **Narve**: Think nothing of it, my good man! If you need anything else, I'm more than happy to help.
* **Geela**: Your magic never ceases to amaze. Did you learn everything from your grandfather?
* **Narve**: You bet I did! The archmage Grandante taught me everything I know!
* **Geela**: Grandante...
* **Geela**: There's something I've been meaning to ask you, Narve.
* **Narve**: Ask away!
* **Geela**: I was in Hyzante for a short time, studying at the Ministry.
* **Geela**: No doubt you know it's considered the greatest authority in this world when it comes to matters arcane.
* **Geela**: Their library contains everything from records of magically enhanced soldiers to technical tomes and much, much more.
* **Geela**: Their chronicles on the history of magic, too, were the most comprehensive in our realm.
* **Geela**: And yet, I do not recall seeing even a single mention of a mage named Grandante.
* **Geela**: One would think the achievements of such a powerful sorcerer would be recorded somewhere. Why are they not?
* **Narve**: Those awful Hyzantians... Truly, they have no shame!
* **Geela**: Narve?
* **Narve**: The chronicles you speak of...in truth, they were written by my grandfather's own hand.
* **Geela**: Wh-what!? But then why is he not credited by name?
* **Narve**: He refused to do the research the former hierophant ordered of him, and was branded a heretic and unbeliever.
* **Narve**: They erased his name and achievements from the records, and made it like he never existed at all.
* **Narve**: He was then banished from the city and died in exile, his name all but forgotten.
* **Narve**: It's all their fault no one knows of the archmage Grandante!
* **Geela**: I...I had no idea...
* **Narve**: These robes I wear were once his. They're the only remaining proof that he once walked this realm.
* **Geela**: So you carry his memory with you everywhere you go.
* **Narve**: I promised myself I would make the archmage Grandante's name known around the world.
* **Narve**: So I'm going to work harder than I've ever worked before—until all in the realm know his story!
* **Narve**: And in the process, I'll become the greatest mage this world has ever seen!
* **Geela**: That's the spirit!
* **Narve**: Thanks, Geela. Just you watch, Grandfather! I'm going to make you proud!

### Disciple of the Archmage

*Narve heals an injured child with his grandfather's magic...*

* **Narve**: Damn it all... At this rate, I'll never come close to carrying on grandfather's legacy...
* **Narve**: Maybe I was never destined to be a great mage after all...
* **Child (M)**: Owww! It hurts!
* **Geela**: Oh no! The poor child's fallen!
* **Narve**: Hey there. Are you hurt?
* **Child (M)**: Ow! It hurts so bad I can't even stand...
* **Narve**: Not to worry! I'll fix you right up, so dry those tears.
* **Child (M)**: R-really?
* **Narve**: Yep! The pain will disappear like magic, you'll see!
* **Child (M)**: Whoa! It doesn't hurt anymore! Thank you, ser!
* **Child (M)**: Grandma, look! My leg's all better now!
* **Wolffort Townsperson (F)**: Well, I'll be. Thank you so much for healing my grandson.
* **Narve**: You don't need to thank me. This is nothing!
* **Wolffort Townsperson (F)**: Those robes... You wouldn't happen to be a student of the archmage Grandante, would you?
* **Narve**: You know my grandfather!?
* **Wolffort Townsperson (F)**: Oh... Of course I do!
* **Wolffort Townsperson (F)**: What a great man he was. Always using his magic to help those in need, much like you.
* **Wolffort Townsperson (F)**: I was just one of many whose lives he saved. Why, that was over thirty years ago...
* **Wolffort Townsperson (F)**: I lost my house to the fires of war, and nearly my life along with it.
* **Wolffort Townsperson (F)**: But he quenched the flames with his spellcraft, and healed my burns.
* **Wolffort Townsperson (F)**: Had it not been for the archmage Grandante, I would not be here today. I am forever in his debt.
* **Narve**: Even though grandfather's name was erased from Hyzante's records, his memory lives on in the people he helped...
* **Geela**: It sounds like he was a truly amazing man, indeed.
* **Geela**: And I know he would be proud of you for following in his footsteps.
* **Narve**: Haha. Do you really think so?
* **Geela**: I do. And I have no doubt that one day you will restore the glory to your grandfather's name.
* **Geela**: No matter what the Ministry does to erase his existence, his spirit lives on through you.
* **Narve**: Right! But I must keep practicing, that I might help even more people with my spells!
* **Narve**: Just watch me, Grandfather! I'll restore the honor of your name if it's the last thing I do!

## Mid-Battle Conversations

### Final Chapter: Blessed Freedom

#### vs. Idore

* **Narve**: I've been waiting for this... The day I get to use my grandfather's magic to destroy you!

#### vs. Idore

* **Narve**: I've been waiting for this moment, Idore. Today I take vengeance for my grandfather and all the rest you've caused misery!
