We are grateful to Illumina. This is the most suitable place for Sakae and me to stay.

You might have heard me talk about my hometown. It's in the far East across this continent.

Splendor Illumina.

Aurorians and Eclipsites are born into opposition. They can only face each other with swords.

She invited me here on behalf of Illumina, so I owe it to her. I will never forget her powerful figure.

While most of our contacts are for official business, I do admire her planning ability.

Meditation, Pink Dragon, Sakae... Will the things are important to me regarded as the things I like?

I wouldn't say I hate it, but I'm not willing to be in the company of those who aren't awakened.

Have you heard about the legendary white dragon? Just like this Colossus, I hope it can go afar.

The path along which sakura blossoms is the way home in my memories.

I'm honored to be chosen by you. I hope I'll live up to your expectations.

... There's no shame in being defeated.

That battle was certainly fought with awareness.

Fall!

Light arc!

Focus—

Let's change our destiny together.

I must fight off my own selfishness.

Be fearless of death, just as the spring flowers disperse—

Zakura, join me in the pursuit of the final chapter in our destiny!

Phew—a much-needed break. I'm going to take this chance to meditate. I hope I'm disturbed by no one...

I'm one step closer...to my goal.

Alchemy Stars.

Happy New Year.

On the other side of the window, the rainstorm seems to have disappeared. I never thought I would find such peace on this colossus.

The world is surreal, but there are bound to be restraints in life. Just like you and this colossus, me, and this katana.

One must be decisive when they're caught between a rock and a hard place. Yet... not everyone can manage so, neither can I.

A fighter should focus on the moment and not get distracted. Hiiro, you must not gloat despite your improvement.

My heart is filled with stories of the heroes who died. Those are the memories of Cloud Mountain... I will no longer hesitate!

Zakura, Sakae, this fleeting power, and determination in the face of death. These are all that I have.

With the spring drizzle and fresh grass, the world seems to be recovering. Come have a look?

Death isn't scary. Sacrificing for nothing is. What will you sacrifice yourself for?

The world may be surreal, but with this colossus and you... The world seems different now.

Sakae is the name of this sword. He has accompanied me for many years.

...back in my hometown, there was always plenty of sakura blossoming in quiet times.

Why don't we find a place to sit and meditate together? It can relieve fatigue, which is good for work.

Happy New Year.

You're back. Everything's fine.

My training for the legion is over. Let me know if you need anything.

Don't worry, I'm still here.

It's time to rest. Don't mind me, I'll stay a bit more.

Happy New Year.

My name is Hiiro. Life is surreal. It's fate that we met. Sakae and I will be at your service for now.

Thanks, but you really don't have to.

You must have put a lot of thought into this. Thank you.

This gift... Please let me know how I can repay you.

This... oh, I really like it. No, I love it...

Head towards death and we'll live—!

Sakura storm—!

To me, performing is also a type of training that can hone my temperament.

Sword at the ready.

It's my mission to help you. While I live in Illumina, taking on the important role of the Legion Commander, I wasn't born here...

Even though I was young when I left my hometown, it's inevitable that its markings remain engraved in me, like my integrity, like my name...

Life is unpredictable. Sakae and I left Cloud Mountain together, yet I was left to join Illumina alone... Now that you're here, I hope there won't be any more surprises...

I will not be a disgrace.
