Here you are, Gilbert. Have you finished your prayers?

Gilbert
volume_up

Ah! Your Highness! I... This...

Dimitri
volume_up

Ah, but you and I are the only ones present, so I suppose I should not call you Gilbert.

Dimitri

Gustave... It's been a while, hasn't it? Around three years, I believe?
link
Dimitri
volume_up

Gustave... It has been eight years since I last called you by that name.

Gilbert
volume_up

Your Highness. I must deeply apologize for leaving the Kingdom without permission. I was...

Dimitri
volume_up

There is no need to explain, old friend. I can guess at your reasons... The Tragedy of Duscur.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

You felt responsible for that incident, and sought respite in the goddess, abandoning your name, rank, and homeland in repentance. Am I right?
link
Gilbert
volume_up

I have no excuses to offer. This... It was all I could think to do.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

I always knew you for a pious man. And I figured that if you were to leave, this is where you would end up.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

You have changed much. Your face does not have the same resolve it once did.
link
Gilbert
volume_up

If I may, Your Highness... You have changed as well.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

I can't disagree.

Gilbert

It was my duty to protect His Majesty. Your father. Naturally, that included yourself as well.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

No amount of regret can bring the dead back to us.

Gilbert

It was my duty to protect His Majesty. Your father. Naturally, that also included Lady Patricia and yourself as well.

Dimitri
volume_up

My father and mother are gone. No amount of regret will bring them back.
link
Gilbert
volume_up

My dreams are haunted by the thought that, had I arrived at Duscur more swiftly...
link
Dimitri
volume_up

You saved my life at Duscur. I have only gratitude for you, no blame to speak of.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

Return to the Kingdom, Gustave.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

I need your strength to help rebuild the rotten husk that Faerghus has become.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

I wish for you to remain in the Kingdom, Gustave. Even after this conflict is over.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

I need your strength to help rebuild the ravaged land that Faerghus has become.
link
Gilbert
volume_up

Please. I beg your forgiveness, but there is no place left for me in that land.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

I see. Though much has changed, your stubbornness remains.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

I have no desire to trouble you. If you do not wish to return, that is your choice to make.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

But I do advise you to at least visit the place of your birth. If only for your family's sake.
link
Gilbert
volume_up

Yes, Your Highness. Thank you. I appreciate your concern.
