Even if I can only watch my home from afar, I'll still defend it with all my might.

Umbraton is a nice place. People from Lumopolis should visit more often.

White Night up high... Haha, that brings back memories.

You hate Eclipsites? Then, what about Eclipsites-turned-Aurorians?

Carleen and Mother... I wish we could always—no, never mind.

The Schwartz name isn't important enough for me to keep living in his shadow.

Enjoying a cup of Knight's Black Tea in a little cafe alone in the afternoon... is simply perfect.

It's okay, I can handle a lot of things myself without troubling others...

It's so crowded here... and there are people I want to see and those I don't.

Greetings. How are you lately? Heheh, I haven't said that in a while.

Don't worry, take a deep breath... Inhale, exhale... Ahem, no problem, I can handle the job. I got this!

Sigh. Still not good enough...

W-We won... We won!

Take this!

Hold nothing back!

I-I'm ready!

I'll keep doing my best...!

I think I've mastered it!

I'm a knight... I'm not weak!

If only I had such power sooner...

Pick a bouquet of roses ♪ for my dear father and mother ♪... Oh, sorry! It's too quiet around here and I habitually... Sigh, I see I'm still alone...

Must keep training...

Alchemy Stars.

Happy New Year. Cherish it by spending time with loved ones.

I... I haven't worn a dress of such color in a long time. Does it look good on me? Heheh, this is a little embarassing.

It's not necessary to take an opponent's life in battle, right? Yes, I understand only a great warrior has the privilege of choosing compassion, and I'm far from that...

Wow, the streets are so crowded. What are they doing? I'll prioritize finishing my tasks! But I hope the sun is still out when I'm done...

When I was little, I'd feel dejected and helpless no matter how hard I tried... Now, I'm only fighting for my own goals, and it's a lot easier on my mind.

Titles are such marvelous things. They can shackle you or give you limitless power. But you mustn't fixate on them...

If I had been as courageous before as I am now... No, it's useless to ponder these things. What's important is to protect what you cherish now, right?

I'm different than before. I don't feel incessantly inferior, nor unable to control myself... It's true! So, mind trusting me a little more?

Please don't bail me out all the time. No, it's not troublesome. It's just... I think I should be protecting you.

Let me tell you a secret: My hand sometimes trembles in combat. Mind lending me a little courage? Oh, your hands are really warm...

Regardless of what others might say, I will always be Carleen's sister, as well as... Joshua's daughter. No humdrum honor can sever the family bond.

I have... a friend, named Baba Yaga who used to be somewhat brutal, but not anymore. Please don't freak out if you get a chance to meet her, okay?

I scraped my knee in training and it hurts... What? No, it's just a flesh wound! I have tears in my eyes? *sniffles* No, I don't...

Happy New Year. Cherish it by spending time with loved ones.

You should go out whenever you're free. The streets are pretty in the daytime.

Good morning, and what a wonderful morning it is. Care for morning tea?

It's getting dark... It's okay though, I'm used to the dark.

Still busy this late at night? I guess it's the same for everyone with vital obligations.

Happy New Year. Cherish it by spending time with loved ones.

Hello. Let me see how should I introduce myself... Veronica? No, just call me Mia. Mia should do.

Thank you.

What is it this time?

Hey, what's this...

Only you know me so well...

Meet my power!

Meet my true self!

Please don't be afraid...

"Veronica," eldest daughter of the Lumopolis City Lord... and a blemish on House Schwartz. That's the history this dress represents.

"Baba Yaga," the specter-like black spider. She didn't die but merged with Mia to become the me you see now.

I'm still Mia... and can only be Mia. But that's not an alias anyone else gave me. It is a road I chose for myself.

Everyone... follow me!
