Script[edit]
Mòrag
...
Pyra
So there you are, Mòrag.
...Is something wrong?
...Is something wrong?
Mòrag
No, not at all. I've just been thinking.
Pyra
...Any particular worries?
Mòrag
Ah, it's just... My brother.
Pyra
Emperor Niall? Is he OK?
Mòrag
I'm...concerned he'll wear himself out.
Pyra
The Emperor is quite young, isn't he...
Mòrag
Yes. The weight of responsibility is a heavy burden for someone his age....
Pyra
Have you two spoken recently?
Mòrag
Well, as Special Inquisitor, I send him reports almost daily...
Pyra
No, I mean, just...talk, like siblings do.
Chat about family stuff, things like that.

Mòrag
Talk like siblings do...?
It may shock you, but neither me nor the Emperor are great at small talk.

Pyra
Don't overthink it.
You can talk about anything, so long as it's not work.
You should just go drop in.

Mòrag
Ah, the Emperor is a very busy person...
Engaging in idle chit-chat with me... That would be a waste of his time.

Pyra
How do I respond?
Pyra
Surely he'd be happy to see his big sis.
Trust +200Pyra
Surely even the great Emperor Niall would be happy to see his big sis!
Mòrag
...Thank you, Pyra.
Alas, my brother and I are hardly your average family.
His Imperial Majesty and his retainer, the Special Inquisitor...
Our stations differ greatly, as do our ways of life.
We couldn't possibly expect to talk like normal siblings...

Mythra
Oh, give me a break! You think your "stations" trump your relationship as brother and sister?
Mòrag
Mythra?! When did you-
Mythra
I couldn't listen to you anymore.
You're family, aren't you? You and Emperor Niall.
Emperor or not, he's your brother, first and foremost.
What more is there to think about?

Mòrag
...Even so... It has been a long time since we've acted as siblings...
Mythra
Look at me and Pyra. We haven't exactly been in touch all that much.
And now? We're rock-solid.
And now? We're rock-solid.
Mòrag
That's not exactly...
Mythra
Shut it!
You being worried about your brother makes you family enough.
Your stations don't come into it!
Just woman up and be a good sister already!

Mòrag
M-mhm...
Maybe you're right...
Maybe you're right...
Mythra
Of course I'm right. Obviously.
Just enjoy some time with your little bro and spoil him rotten. That's it.

Mòrag
...Very well. Then I will strive to be the sister Niall deserves.
Mythra
You better be ready the next time you two meet.
Mòrag
I will... I promise.
Mythra
Finally, we've made some progress.
You and Rex both get so stuck in your heads, it's infuriating.

Mòrag
Ha... Thanks for the pep talk, Mythra.
Mythra
You're very welcome.
Pyra
Sounds like you don't want to see him...
Trust +200Pyra
Hang on. Mòrag, could it be that you don't want to see him?
Mòrag
No, that's not it.
I would like to spend time with him, no question.
But I'm afraid our respective stations would get in the way...

Pyra
Stations...? You mean because he's Emperor?
Mòrag
Indeed.
When my little brother took the throne, I volunteered to become his shield.
It was then that we cut the familial bonds between us.

Pyra
You poor thing...
Mòrag
Please don't misunderstand. I do not regret choosing this life.
To protect my brother, and all of Mor Ardain... There is no higher joy for me.

...As a Blade, I have no family. But I do long for the kind of relations that a family brings.
You and Emperor Niall are already connected, and more closely than you might think.
But still, you don't go to see him...? Why?
Surely there wouldn't be any harm in just talking and enjoying each other's company?
In all honesty...there's nothing I'd want more.

Pyra
I think Emperor Niall would enjoy a chance to talk with you, too.
I mean, isn't that what family's about?
I don't think bonds can be cut as easily as that, you know?

Mòrag
I...that is...
Pyra
Just try. Go see him.
Emperor, retainer... That isn't what counts.
You don't need some special reason to go talk to your brother, Mòrag!
And I bet he'd appreciate it, too.

Mòrag
Hah. Indeed. It may well be as you say.
It's possible that I was the one who built a wall between us.

You know where to start, right? Tear down that wall!
Mòrag
Yes. I'll do my best. Thank you, Pyra.
