Arcanist questLevel 30
Quest giver Thubyrgeim
in Limsa Lominsa Lower Decks
Thubyrgeim takes the satchel so the costume can go back to its owner. She is glad K'lyhia
is free of her past; seeing her suffer pained her. She credits you with bringing K'lyhia and the guildmaster together and gives you a new technique.
Your class story: K'lyhia's past with the exiled pirate Doesmaga
, played out at Mealvaan's Gate and Oschon's Embrace.
has instructions for you from Foreseer K'lyhia. explains that K'lyhia has already begun her grand strategy that will culminate in Doesmaga's downfall. Your first task in this daring scheme is to deliver a set of instructions to a fisherman known as Rhylzirn
, who can be found in Costa del Sol, in eastern La Noscea., you are rewarded with a fresh herring. Your next task, according to the gruff fisherman, is to take the fish you received to the cook, Opylona
., happy to receive the freshly caught herring, insists you take one of her homemade eel pies. The cook then relays instructions from “your arcanist colleague”: you are to deliver the pastry to Master Gegeruju
, rather than succumb to the demands of your stomach. rewards you with a heavy purse of gil. Before you can begin counting out your new fortune, however, you receive K'lyhia's next set of instructions from P'ebaloh
. It seems you must deliver the bulging sack of coins to Ealdgyth
the dancer. in exchange for her well-worn pareo and a mysterious leather satchel. As instructed, take the pareo to Drogo
, the warehouse foreman., still questioning his good fortune at receiving Ealdgyth's pareo, gives you a bottle of vintage wine. Take the bottle, and pour a cup for the Morningstar crew members who are drinking at the Flying Shark.
invites you aboard the Morningstar to talk business with Captain Doesmaga. Speak with Hirskskrat at the jetty when you are ready to depart.'s clever tactics coupled with your flawless execution have led to the resounding defeat of the pirate Doesmaga. With her past firmly behind her, the foreseer is able to clearly see the reality she desired all along. Return to the Arcanists' Guild and inform Thubyrgeim of K'lyhia's decision to seek out the guildmaster..'s decision, Thubyrgeim concludes that the pairing of the arcanima-obsessed guildmaster and foreseer will lead to great advances in the art of the arcanist. Citing your involvement as the catalyst for these developments, the acting guildmaster rewards you with a new technique and encourages you to continue improving in your chosen discipline.This is the last quest here.
The lines worth a second look, in the order you hear them, and what each one means.
Hmph, so ye can handle a few deck scrags. Me axe'll carve yer petty plans into bloody ruin!
Watch the battle text. There the pirate appears as Doesmaga Poisonheart. The pirate mocks: 'so ye can handle a few deck scrags'.
The eel-pie buyer Gegeruju is a rich and powerful Dunesfolk Lalafell. Only one thing is more of a mystery than him: how he got his money.
Costa del Sol has the same name as the beach resort town in Final Fantasy VII. Here, it is where Master Gegeruju keeps his humble home.
The running joke reaches the fight. K'lyhia laughs that Doesmaga's badly beaten crew is not up to the task. K'lyhia puts the odds of victory at 99%.
Drogo treasures a pareo. Its item text calls it a colorful piece of cotton underwear. The dancer Ealdgyth wore it for countless summers.
Read the item text of the Odd Leather Satchel. It says the veil of mystery around this otherwise plain sack is so thick it could choke an aurochs.
Who they are, and what they do in this quest.
This Yellowjacket serves with Limsa Lominsa's soldiers, who have sent word that Doesmaga's ship lies off Bloodshore.
Once Doesmaga is beaten, this Yellowjacket thanks you. Without your bravery and skill, the Yellowjackets would still be floundering after the pirate. The soldier also sends regards to Thubyrgeim.
Thubyrgeim has news from the Yellowjackets: Doesmaga's ship lies off Bloodshore. She has K'lyhia's first instructions for you.
Thubyrgeim takes the satchel so the costume can go back to its owner. She is glad K'lyhia is free of her past; seeing her suffer pained her. She credits you with bringing K'lyhia and the guildmaster together and gives you a new technique.
K'lyhia wants to settle the score with the pirate Doesmaga and has already set her grand strategy in motion.
K'lyhia's chain of trades gets you both onto Doesmaga's ship, with her dressed as a dancer. She fights to cast off the shackles he put on her soul, and wins. Then she leaves to seek out the guildmaster, to understand the reality she wants.
Rhylzirn is a gruff fisherman in Costa del Sol, in eastern La Noscea, with his hands full of fishing.
Rhylzirn expects you. He takes K'lyhia's list and hands you a fresh herring for the cook Opylona. That list also calls in the Yellowjackets, and at the end Rhylzirn blocks Doesmaga's escape, saying they brought shackles for him.
Opylona is the cook for Master Gegeruju, who is expecting his meal at any moment.
Opylona is happy with the herring, since her master likes broiled fish and she hopes for extra coins. She gives you a homemade eel pie and passes on your arcanist colleague's order: take it to Master Gegeruju, do not eat it.
Master Gegeruju is Opylona's master, at his home in Costa del Sol, waiting for his meal.
Gegeruju speaks in long, fancy words and loves eel pie. He pays you a heavy purse of gil (money) for it. He is a rich, powerful Dunesfolk Lalafell, and how he got his money is a mystery.
P'ebaloh is at Master Gegeruju's home in Costa del Sol, holding a message for someone.
A Mealvaan's Gate assessor, K'lyhia, asked P'ebaloh to pass a message to whoever brings Master Gegeruju an eel pie. P'ebaloh hands it to you: give the purse to the dancer Ealdgyth.
Ealdgyth is a dancer who asks to see your coin first. She has three children to feed and no time to chat.
Ealdgyth is thrilled with the heavy purse; her children can eat well this week. She was told to expect you, and gives you a leather satchel from K'lyhia and her own pareo, a colorful cotton undergarment she wore for countless summers, for Drogo.
Drogo is a warehouse foreman, rushing to finish his work before his master gets angry.
Drogo can hardly believe his luck at getting Ealdgyth's pareo, which he treasures. As K'lyhia arranged, he gives you a bottle of vintage wine for the sailors at the Flying Shark, and warns you they are mean cutthroats.
The game was written in Japanese and rewritten, not just translated, for each language. Here is what the other versions say, next to the English.
| Japanese | 巴術最大級命題の証明 ‘Proof of Arcanima's Greatest Proposition’ |
|---|---|
| French | Démonstration stratégico-réaliste ‘A Strategico-Realist Demonstration (or Proof)’ |
| German | Geschickt eingefädelt ‘Cleverly Threaded (i.e. cleverly set up)’ |
If we pass up this opportunity, K'lyhia will lose her chance to settle the score with Doesmaga─and we risk the foreseer stumbling once more into blackest melancholy.
Nous n'avons pas le droit à l'erreur.
‘We have no right to make a mistake.’
Aber K'lyhia hat einen strategischen Plan errechnet, der uns eine Möglichkeit eröffnet.
‘But K'lyhia has calculated a strategic plan that opens up an opportunity for us.’
失敗できないよ。
‘We can't fail.’
English fears K'lyhia sinking back into blackest melancholy; French just says there is no room for error.
English fears K'lyhia sinking back into melancholy; German says she has calculated a plan that opens a chance.
English fears K'lyhia sinking back into blackest melancholy; Japanese just says they cannot fail.
Simply getting close enough to Doesmaga will prove difficult. K'lyhia has, however, already formulated a solution, and has set her grand strategy into motion.
Bei dem Plan handelt es sich um eine Kette von Ereignissen, teils zufällig, teils von K'lyhia eingefädelt, die uns schließlich Zugang zu Doesmagas Schiff verschafft.
‘The plan is a chain of events, partly chance, partly orchestrated by K'lyhia, that will at last get us aboard Doesmaga's ship.’
The title takes up Thubyrgeim's verb for K'lyhia's plan.
A fresh herring? Why, the master does enjoy a bite of broiled fish of an evening/an afternoon. This might even earn me a few extra coins for this week's wages!
Woher wusstest du ... Egal.
‘How did you know ... Never mind.’
English hopes the fish will earn her extra wages; German wonders how you knew she needed it.
Well, you have earned yourself one of my homemade eel pies! I should tell you, though, your arcanist colleague was quite insistent that you take the pie to Master Gegeruju, rather than scoff it down yourself.
Warum bringst du dem Meister Gegeruju nicht diese köstliche Vorspeise, die ich zubereitet habe?
‘Why don't you take Master Gegeruju this delicious starter that I have prepared?’
English says your arcanist colleague insisted you take the pie to Gegeruju; German has Opylona suggesting it herself.
Well, you have earned yourself one of my homemade eel pies! I should tell you, though, your arcanist colleague was quite insistent that you take the pie to Master Gegeruju, rather than scoff it down yourself.
Une Miqo'te arcaniste un peu farfelue m'a demandé de vous dire qu'il vous fallait remettre ça au seigneur Gegeruju.
‘A somewhat wacky Miqo'te arcanist asked me to tell you that you had to hand this over to Lord Gegeruju.’
French cook describes K'lyhia as a rather wacky Miqo'te; English just says your arcanist colleague.
And what brings you to my─and I use the term facetiously─humble abode, dear madam/sir? Mmm, such a heavenly aroma. Are you, perchance, carrying an eel pie about your person?
Mais vous êtes qui, vous ?
‘But who are you, then?’
Ah, du musst die neue Lakaiin/der neue Lakai sein.
‘Ah, you must be the new lackey.’
なんだ、貴様は？
‘What is this, who are you? (with a rude "you")’
English greets you with mock courtesy as "dear madam/sir"; French bluntly asks who you are.

‘My stomach is growling like a pack of wolves at full moon!’
English praises the heavenly aroma; German says his stomach growls like a pack of wolves at full moon.
How commendable that you should research the delicacies that tickle my fancy before daring to intrude upon my most ponderous of ponderings. Speaking of ponderous─well, I was speaking of it, at least─I have a hefty purse of gil to persuade you to relinquish your claim on that pastry...
Cela mérite bien comme petite récompense...
‘That surely deserves (item) as a small reward...’
English jokes on "ponderous" to offer a hefty purse; French calls it a small reward.
How commendable that you should research the delicacies that tickle my fancy before daring to intrude upon my most ponderous of ponderings. Speaking of ponderous─well, I was speaking of it, at least─I have a hefty purse of gil to persuade you to relinquish your claim on that pastry...
Rück schon raus mit dem Leckerli oder willst du mich den ganzen Tag foltern?
‘Hand over the treat already, or do you want to torture me all day?’
English praises you for researching his favourite delicacies; German impatiently demands the treat.
One moment, if you will. I have been instructed by a Mealvaan's Gate assessor to hand over this message to whoever delivers an eel pie to Master Gegeruju.
Une inspectrrrice de la douane de Mealvaan m'a dit de remettre ce papier à l'aventurière/er qui vous apportera , seigneur Gegeruju.
‘An inspectrrress from Mealvaan's customs told me to hand this paper to the adventurer who would bring you , Lord Gegeruju.’
French Miqo'te characters roll their r's like a purr; English gives them no accent.
One moment, if you will. I have been instructed by a Mealvaan's Gate assessor to hand over this message to whoever delivers an eel pie to Master Gegeruju.
Sie gab mir einen Brief mit der Anweisung, ihn „der ersten Abenteurerin/dem ersten Abenteurer zu geben, die/der Meister Gegeruju mit einer Köstlichkeit erfreut“.
‘She gave me a letter with the instruction to give it "to the first adventurer by whom Master Gegeruju is delighted with a delicacy".’
German's instruction is vaguer, whoever delights him with any delicacy; English specifies an eel pie.
Yes? If you're looking for a dancer, then I would first see your coin. I've three children to feed, and no time to waste on idle chat.
Kennen wir uns?
‘Do we know each other?’
English demands to see your coin first; German politely asks whether you know each other.
Yes? If you're looking for a dancer, then I would first see your coin. I've three children to feed, and no time to waste on idle chat.
Je n'ai pas beaucoup de temps, malheureusement, je dois rentrer chez moi pour nourrir mes enfants...
‘I don't have much time, unfortunately; I have to go home to feed my children...’
French Ealdgyth is apologetic and never asks for money up front; English demands to see your coin.
And such a simple job, as well. I was told to expect you, you see. In return for the coin, I am to give you these.
Jetzt verstehe ich auch, was die nette Miqo'te meinte, die mich nach einer Aufführung neulich ansprach ... Ich habe sie zuerst für eine Wahrsagerin gehalten.
‘Now I understand what that nice Miqo'te meant, the one who spoke to me after a show the other day... At first I took her for a fortune-teller.’
K'lyhia foretold your coming. The English Ealdgyth was just told to expect you.
And such a simple job, as well. I was told to expect you, you see. In return for the coin, I am to give you these.
Et moi qui avais du mal à croire ce que me racontait cette cliente...
‘And here I was, finding it hard to believe what that client was telling me...’
Jetzt verstehe ich auch, was die nette Miqo'te meinte, die mich nach einer Aufführung neulich ansprach ...

English remarks on what an easy job it is; French says she could hardly believe what the client told her.

And such a simple job, as well. I was told to expect you, you see. In return for the coin, I am to give you these.
Ich habe sie zuerst für eine Wahrsagerin gehalten.
‘At first I took her for a fortune-teller.’
English says she must hand items over in return for the coin; German says she first took the Miqo'te for a fortune-teller.
I ain't got time fer the likes o' you: if I don't get me work squared away soon, the master'll 'ave me 'ead on a pike. Hm? Ye got summat fer me, ye say?
Mein Chef wacht mit Habichtaugen über mich.
‘My boss watches over me with hawk's eyes.’
English says his master will have his head on a pike; German says his boss watches him with hawk's eyes.
That Miqo'te lass said someone'd be bringin' me a gift what I couldn't refuse, an' stick me with a pitchfork if she weren't tellin' the gods' own truth! 'Ere, yer s'posed to 'ave this bottle o' wine.
Ealdgyth hat mich vor einer Weile gebeten, einem Bekannten von ihr etwas von meinem besten Traubensaft zu schicken.
‘A while ago Ealdgyth asked me to send some of my best grape juice to an acquaintance of hers.’
English says the Miqo'te told him a gift was coming; German says Ealdgyth asked him to send his best grape juice to someone.
Take it to the Flyin' Shark an' pour a cup fer the sailors what're drinkin' there. That's what she told me to tell ye, anyroad. I'd watch me back if I was you, though, lass/son─them sailors're the meanest bunch o' cutthroats I ever did see.
Das ist eine üble Spelunke, in der sich viele düstere Gestalten herumtreiben.
‘That is a nasty dive where many shady characters hang around.’
German warns about the tavern as a seedy dive; English warns about the cutthroat sailors themselves.
Llymlaen's teats! Now that's a bloody fine drop! If we ship this stuff to the East, we'll be sellin' bottles by the crate!
この酒をひんがしの国まで運べば、バカ売れ確実、大儲け確実だな。
‘If we haul this wine to the land of Hingashi, it'll sell like mad, a sure fortune.’
この酒をひんがしの国まで運べば、バカ売れ確実、大儲け確実だな。
‘If we haul this wine all the way to the land of Hingashi, it'll sell like mad, a sure fortune.’
Hirskskrat means the Far Eastern island nation across the sea, east of Othard. The English only says the East.
ひんがし is an old form of ひがし, 'east', so the East is the name's plain meaning. Translators keep a Japanese name's sound like this when its Japanese flavor matters.
Llymlaen's teats! Now that's a bloody fine drop! If we ship this stuff to the East, we'll be sellin' bottles by the crate!
Ich bin mir sicher, dass mein Kapitän dir eine Ladung davon abkaufen würde.
‘I'm sure my captain would buy a load of it from you.’
Der alte Doesmaga hat eine Schwäche für guten Wein.
‘Old Doesmaga has a weakness for good wine.’
English plans to sell the wine by the crate in the East; German says his captain would buy a load from you.
German sailor says the captain loves good wine and would buy a load; English plans to sell it in the East.
There's a good lass/lad. An' as fer ye, Miss Dancer, ye stick close to ol' Hirskskrat─it gets damn cold on them long sea voyages, heh heh heh.
Und du, Süße, bist auch herzlich eingeladen. Guter Wein und ein süßes Kätzchen, das wird dem Kapitän gefallen!
‘And you, sweetie, are warmly invited too. Good wine and a sweet kitten, the captain will like that!’
Hirskskrat leers at K'lyhia, disguised as a dancer, with cat pet names like this. The English says Miss Dancer.
There's a good lass/lad. An' as fer ye, Miss Dancer, ye stick close to ol' Hirskskrat─it gets damn cold on them long sea voyages, heh heh heh.

English has K'lyhia hushing you; German has her thanking for the invitation.
Ye ready, then? We'll be off as soon as the boat's loaded.
Wir sind bereit, Kurs auf die östlichen Lande zu nehmen.
‘We are ready to set course for the eastern lands.’
German says they are ready to sail for the eastern lands; English only waits for the boat to be loaded.
Ah, fine grog an' a fine woman. The captain'll be pleased with this haul.
Aber für einen guten Wein und ein gelenkiges Miezekätzchen lässt der Kapitän schon mal eine günstige Brise aus.
‘... But for a good wine and a supple pussycat, the captain will gladly let a favourable breeze go by.’
English says the captain will be pleased with this haul; German says the captain will even skip a favourable wind for it.
Pray do not stare so. This was the most expedient method of gaining access to the ship.
C'était le seul moyen de monter à bord de leur navire sans faire la moindre victime.
‘It was the only way to get aboard their ship without causing a single casualty.’
最小限の犠牲で商船に乗り込むにはこの戦術が最適だったんです。
‘This tactic was the best way to board the merchant ship with the fewest sacrifices.’
English calls it the most expedient way aboard; French says it was the only way aboard without any casualties.

I will take that satchel from you now. You may have it back after I take the items I need.
Hier, nimm den Rest.
‘Here, take the rest.’
English has K'lyhia asking you for the satchel; German has her handing you back the rest.
Ye'll be dancin' yerself warm once we get ye on the ship, lass.
Ouais, t'as raison. J'ai rien dit.
‘Yeah, you're right. Forget I said anything.’
Hm, nun gut.
‘Hm, all right then.’
そういうことなら、しかたねぇが……。
‘If that's how it is, it can't be helped, but...’
English jokes she will dance herself warm on the ship; French just concedes she is right.

I'll be happy to show him the performance that awaits!

‘Even without being told, I'll throw it off myself!’
English promises to show him "the performance that awaits"; French says taking the robe off was her plan all along.

The bitch Admiral's lapdog! Come back fer that lesson, 'ave ye?
T'es venue te faire donner une nouvelle leçon, ma p'tite panthère ?
‘Did you come to get another lesson, my little panther?’
Doesmaga keeps calling K'lyhia this sneering pet name, fit for a cat-like Miqo'te. The English calls her a lapdog.
The bitch Admiral's lapdog! Come back fer that lesson, 'ave ye?
Das Schoßhündchen von Admiral Meckerweib.
‘The lapdog of Admiral Nag-Woman.’
Doesmaga mocks K'lyhia and twists Merlwyb's name: meckern means 'to nag', and Weib means 'woman'.
It is I who shall be teaching this day! My lecture will focus on the manipulation of reality through applied strategy!
Je suis juste ici pour démontrer la proposition qui dit que les stratégies serrrvent à construire la réalité que nous désirons !
‘I am simply here to prove the proposition which says that strategies serve to build the reality we desire!’

‘I have come to prove this proposition!!’
German K'lyhia comes to prove a claim, not to teach a lesson as in English.
Japanese K'lyhia comes to prove a proposition, as in mathematics; English K'lyhia comes to teach.
Enough o' this damn yappin'! By the time I'm done with ye, ye'll remember who yer real master is!

以上、証明終わりです。
‘With that, the proof is complete.’
Et voilà, démonstrrration terminée.
‘And there you have it: prrroof complete.’
Und so geht mein Traum in Erfüllung - genau wie berechnet!
‘And so my dream comes true - just as calculated!’
The title frames the quest as a proof. K'lyhia sets out to prove that strategy exists to create the reality you desire. Her last line is a Q.E.D.
True to the title's «Démonstration», 'proof', K'lyhia ends with this Q.E.D.
English ends "today's lecture"; German says her dream comes true just as calculated.
...Which suggests that my tactics yet require more work. One must allow for some small deviation in performance.
D'ailleurs, il m'en reste encore une à mettre en œuvrrre, et pas des moindres.
‘Besides, I still have one more to carry out, and not the least of them.’
English says her tactics still need work; French says she still has one more important strategy to carry out.
...Which suggests that my tactics yet require more work. One must allow for some small deviation in performance.
Man muss sie auch umsetzen können.
‘One must also be able to carry it out.’
German says a strategy is worthless unless someone can execute it; English says her tactics need more work.
I believe, however, that I now understand where my calculations went awry: it is not enough to wish to shape reality; one must also have a complete understanding of the reality one wishes to obtain.
Les stratégies serrrvent à construire la réalité que nous désirons... or moi, il y a une réalité que je désire mais dont j'ai détourné les yeux bien trop longtemps.
‘Strategies serve to build the reality we desire... yet as for me, there is a reality I desire but have looked away from for far too long.’

‘"Tactics exist to create the reality one desires," and yet I... had been turning my eyes away from the reality I truly desire.’

German K'lyhia admits she forgot what her own dream was; English states an abstract lesson.
You have our gratitude. Without your bravery and skill, the Yellowjackets would still be floundering in Doesmaga's wake. Pray also send our regards to Acting Guildmaster Thubyrgeim.
Ohne deine Hilfe hätte ich meine Peiniger nie dingfest machen können.
‘Without your help I could never have caught my tormentors.’
English says the Yellowjackets would still be trailing Doesmaga; German says the speaker could never have caught their own tormentors.
Your brutalized crew is not up to the task, Doesmaga! I calculate our odds of victory at 99%!
Contrrre eux, nos chances de victoire sont de 99,99 % !
‘Against them, our odds of victory are 99.99%!’
English gives the odds of victory as 99%; French says 99.99%.
Your brutalized crew is not up to the task, Doesmaga! I calculate our odds of victory at 99%!
Ich habe alles genauestens berechnet!
‘I have calculated everything with the utmost precision!’
German gives no percentage, only that everything is precisely calculated.
Hmph, so ye can handle a few deck scrags. Me axe'll carve yer petty plans into bloody ruin!
Y valent pas plus que d'la chair à canon.
‘They're worth no more than cannon fodder.’
ふん、所詮使い捨てのコマにすぎぬわ。
‘Hmph, in the end they are nothing more than disposable pawns.’
French Doesmaga writes off his own crew as cannon fodder; English grants that you beat some deckhands.
Japanese Doesmaga writes off his crew as disposable pawns; English grants that you beat some deckhands.
Your example may even encourage K'lyhia to improve her combat abilities, although such will surely come in time─after all, she intends to study under the guildmaster's direct instruction. Imagine those two obsessive arcanists, and the complexity of the tactics they will develop...
Aber der Gildenmeister hat sie daran erinnert, dass es so viel gibt, für das es sich zu leben lohnt.
‘But the guildmaster reminded her that there is so much worth living for.’
English expects K'lyhia's combat abilities to improve; German says the guildmaster reminded her there is much worth living for.
It may very well be that your actions in bringing them together will prove the catalyst that sparks a new era of invention in the art of arcanima.
Zuerst hatte ich meine Zweifel, ob du dich mit ganzer Energie dem Studium der Hermetik widmen würdest.
‘At first I had my doubts whether you would devote yourself with all your energy to the study of the hermetic arts.’
English says you may have sparked a new era in arcanima; German says she first doubted your devotion to your studies.
You, too, should look to the improvement of your discipline if you are to keep pace with all that is certain to follow. To that end, I offer you a new technique, one I pray allows you to more readily drive back your foes on the battlefield.
In diesem Haus der Lehre haben alle etwas von dir lernen können.
‘In this house of learning, everyone was able to learn something from you.’
English says she offers you a new technique; German says everyone in this house of learning learned from you.
your name! This geometry will turn the tide of the battle!
[name], utilise la magie !
‘[name], use magic!’
French just says to use magic; English points to a specific geometry on the field.
your name! This geometry will turn the tide of the battle!
[name], bringe dich in die richtige Position für deine Zauber!
‘[name], get yourself into the right position for your spells!’
German tells you to position yourself for your spells; English points to a geometry that turns the battle.

Message: Take the purse you received from Master Gegeruju, and hand it to the dancer Ealdgyth as she prepares to return home. K'lyhia
The Yellowjackets have contacted us with word of Doesmaga: it appears his merchant vessel is presently anchored off the coast of Bloodshore.
Once the pirate's business there is concluded, rumor has it that he intends to embark on an extended voyage to the East. It will be some time before he returns once more to Limsa Lominsa.
If we pass up this opportunity, K'lyhia will lose her chance to settle the score with Doesmaga─and we risk the foreseer stumbling once more into blackest melancholy.
Nous n'avons pas le droit à l'erreur.
‘We have no right to make a mistake.’
GermanAber K'lyhia hat einen strategischen Plan errechnet, der uns eine Möglichkeit eröffnet.
‘But K'lyhia has calculated a strategic plan that opens up an opportunity for us.’
Japanese失敗できないよ。
‘We can't fail.’
English fears K'lyhia sinking back into blackest melancholy; French just says there is no room for error.
English fears K'lyhia sinking back into melancholy; German says she has calculated a plan that opens a chance.
English fears K'lyhia sinking back into blackest melancholy; Japanese just says they cannot fail.
Simply getting close enough to Doesmaga will prove difficult. K'lyhia has, however, already formulated a solution, and has set her grand strategy into motion.
Bei dem Plan handelt es sich um eine Kette von Ereignissen, teils zufällig, teils von K'lyhia eingefädelt, die uns schließlich Zugang zu Doesmagas Schiff verschafft.
‘The plan is a chain of events, partly chance, partly orchestrated by K'lyhia, that will at last get us aboard Doesmaga's ship.’
The title takes up Thubyrgeim's verb for K'lyhia's plan.
Your first task in this undertaking is to travel to Costa del Sol and deliver this set of directions to a fisherman by the name of Rhylzirn. More instructions will be forthcoming.
What is it ye want, lass/lad? As ye can see, I've me 'ands full with me fishin'...
Ah, thanks fer that. I been told to expect ye. 'Ere, yer to take one o' me 'errings and deliver it to the cook, Opylona.
Yes, and how might I help you? Master Gegeruju is expecting his supper/midday meal any moment now...
A fresh herring? Why, the master does enjoy a bite of broiled fish of an evening/an afternoon. This might even earn me a few extra coins for this week's wages!
Woher wusstest du ... Egal.
‘How did you know ... Never mind.’
English hopes the fish will earn her extra wages; German wonders how you knew she needed it.
Well, you have earned yourself one of my homemade eel pies! I should tell you, though, your arcanist colleague was quite insistent that you take the pie to Master Gegeruju, rather than scoff it down yourself.
Warum bringst du dem Meister Gegeruju nicht diese köstliche Vorspeise, die ich zubereitet habe?
‘Why don't you take Master Gegeruju this delicious starter that I have prepared?’
English says your arcanist colleague insisted you take the pie to Gegeruju; German has Opylona suggesting it herself.
Une Miqo'te arcaniste un peu farfelue m'a demandé de vous dire qu'il vous fallait remettre ça au seigneur Gegeruju.
‘A somewhat wacky Miqo'te arcanist asked me to tell you that you had to hand this over to Lord Gegeruju.’
French cook describes K'lyhia as a rather wacky Miqo'te; English just says your arcanist colleague.
And what brings you to my─and I use the term facetiously─humble abode, dear madam/sir? Mmm, such a heavenly aroma. Are you, perchance, carrying an eel pie about your person?
Mais vous êtes qui, vous ?
‘But who are you, then?’
GermanAh, du musst die neue Lakaiin/der neue Lakai sein.
‘Ah, you must be the new lackey.’
Japaneseなんだ、貴様は？
‘What is this, who are you? (with a rude "you")’
English greets you with mock courtesy as "dear madam/sir"; French bluntly asks who you are.
English greets you with mock courtesy as "dear madam/sir"; German takes you for the new lackey.
English greets you with mock courtesy as "dear madam/sir"; Japanese rudely asks who you are.
Mein Magen knurrt wie ein Rudel Wölfe bei Vollmond!
‘My stomach is growling like a pack of wolves at full moon!’
English praises the heavenly aroma; German says his stomach growls like a pack of wolves at full moon.
How commendable that you should research the delicacies that tickle my fancy before daring to intrude upon my most ponderous of ponderings. Speaking of ponderous─well, I was speaking of it, at least─I have a hefty purse of gil to persuade you to relinquish your claim on that pastry...
Cela mérite bien comme petite récompense...
‘That surely deserves (item) as a small reward...’
English jokes on "ponderous" to offer a hefty purse; French calls it a small reward.
Rück schon raus mit dem Leckerli oder willst du mich den ganzen Tag foltern?
‘Hand over the treat already, or do you want to torture me all day?’
English praises you for researching his favourite delicacies; German impatiently demands the treat.
One moment, if you will. I have been instructed by a Mealvaan's Gate assessor to hand over this message to whoever delivers an eel pie to Master Gegeruju.
Une inspectrrrice de la douane de Mealvaan m'a dit de remettre ce papier à l'aventurière/er qui vous apportera , seigneur Gegeruju.
‘An inspectrrress from Mealvaan's customs told me to hand this paper to the adventurer who would bring you , Lord Gegeruju.’
French Miqo'te characters roll their r's like a purr; English gives them no accent.
Sie gab mir einen Brief mit der Anweisung, ihn „der ersten Abenteurerin/dem ersten Abenteurer zu geben, die/der Meister Gegeruju mit einer Köstlichkeit erfreut“.
‘She gave me a letter with the instruction to give it "to the first adventurer by whom Master Gegeruju is delighted with a delicacy".’
German's instruction is vaguer, whoever delights him with any delicacy; English specifies an eel pie.
Yes? If you're looking for a dancer, then I would first see your coin. I've three children to feed, and no time to waste on idle chat.
Kennen wir uns?
‘Do we know each other?’
English demands to see your coin first; German politely asks whether you know each other.
Je n'ai pas beaucoup de temps, malheureusement, je dois rentrer chez moi pour nourrir mes enfants...
‘I don't have much time, unfortunately; I have to go home to feed my children...’
French Ealdgyth is apologetic and never asks for money up front; English demands to see your coin.
Oh my, that is quite a purse! My precious darlings will eat like kings this week!
And such a simple job, as well. I was told to expect you, you see. In return for the coin, I am to give you these.
Jetzt verstehe ich auch, was die nette Miqo'te meinte, die mich nach einer Aufführung neulich ansprach ... Ich habe sie zuerst für eine Wahrsagerin gehalten.
‘Now I understand what that nice Miqo'te meant, the one who spoke to me after a show the other day... At first I took her for a fortune-teller.’
K'lyhia foretold your coming. The English Ealdgyth was just told to expect you.
Et moi qui avais du mal à croire ce que me racontait cette cliente...
‘And here I was, finding it hard to believe what that client was telling me...’
GermanJetzt verstehe ich auch, was die nette Miqo'te meinte, die mich nach einer Aufführung neulich ansprach ...
‘Now I understand what the nice Miqo'te meant who spoke to me after a performance the other day ...’
English remarks on what an easy job it is; French says she could hardly believe what the client told her.
English remarks on what an easy job it is; German says she now understands what the Miqo'te meant.
Ich habe sie zuerst für eine Wahrsagerin gehalten.
‘At first I took her for a fortune-teller.’
English says she must hand items over in return for the coin; German says she first took the Miqo'te for a fortune-teller.
The leather satchel is from your Miqo'te friend, and the pareo is from me. That last item you are to deliver to Drogo, the warehouse foreman.
I ain't got time fer the likes o' you: if I don't get me work squared away soon, the master'll 'ave me 'ead on a pike. Hm? Ye got summat fer me, ye say?
Mein Chef wacht mit Habichtaugen über mich.
‘My boss watches over me with hawk's eyes.’
English says his master will have his head on a pike; German says his boss watches him with hawk's eyes.
'Ey, now, ain't this Ealdgyth's pareo!?
That Miqo'te lass said someone'd be bringin' me a gift what I couldn't refuse, an' stick me with a pitchfork if she weren't tellin' the gods' own truth! 'Ere, yer s'posed to 'ave this bottle o' wine.
Ealdgyth hat mich vor einer Weile gebeten, einem Bekannten von ihr etwas von meinem besten Traubensaft zu schicken.
‘A while ago Ealdgyth asked me to send some of my best grape juice to an acquaintance of hers.’
English says the Miqo'te told him a gift was coming; German says Ealdgyth asked him to send his best grape juice to someone.
Take it to the Flyin' Shark an' pour a cup fer the sailors what're drinkin' there. That's what she told me to tell ye, anyroad. I'd watch me back if I was you, though, lass/son─them sailors're the meanest bunch o' cutthroats I ever did see.
Das ist eine üble Spelunke, in der sich viele düstere Gestalten herumtreiben.
‘That is a nasty dive where many shady characters hang around.’
German warns about the tavern as a seedy dive; English warns about the cutthroat sailors themselves.
Ye want me to taste yer wine, eh? Well, now, I ain't one to pass up free grog.
Llymlaen's teats! Now that's a bloody fine drop! If we ship this stuff to the East, we'll be sellin' bottles by the crate!
この酒をひんがしの国まで運べば、バカ売れ確実、大儲け確実だな。
‘If we haul this wine to the land of Hingashi, it'll sell like mad, a sure fortune.’
Japaneseこの酒をひんがしの国まで運べば、バカ売れ確実、大儲け確実だな。
‘If we haul this wine all the way to the land of Hingashi, it'll sell like mad, a sure fortune.’
Hirskskrat means the Far Eastern island nation across the sea, east of Othard. The English only says the East.
ひんがし is an old form of ひがし, 'east', so the East is the name's plain meaning. Translators keep a Japanese name's sound like this when its Japanese flavor matters.
Ich bin mir sicher, dass mein Kapitän dir eine Ladung davon abkaufen würde.
‘I'm sure my captain would buy a load of it from you.’
GermanDer alte Doesmaga hat eine Schwäche für guten Wein.
‘Old Doesmaga has a weakness for good wine.’
English plans to sell the wine by the crate in the East; German says his captain would buy a load from you.
German sailor says the captain loves good wine and would buy a load; English plans to sell it in the East.
Yer comin' with us back to the Morningstar. The captain'll want to 'ave a word with ye.
Eh? Are ye tryin' to turn down me business proposition!? I reckon ye might want to think again.
There's a good lass/lad. An' as fer ye, Miss Dancer, ye stick close to ol' Hirskskrat─it gets damn cold on them long sea voyages, heh heh heh.
Und du, Süße, bist auch herzlich eingeladen. Guter Wein und ein süßes Kätzchen, das wird dem Kapitän gefallen!
‘And you, sweetie, are warmly invited too. Good wine and a sweet kitten, the captain will like that!’
Hirskskrat leers at K'lyhia, disguised as a dancer, with cat pet names like this. The English says Miss Dancer.
C'est qu't'es notre plus belle prise de la journée.
‘You're our finest catch of the day, after all.’
GermanGuter Wein und ein süßes Kätzchen, das wird dem Kapitän gefallen!
‘Good wine and a sweet kitten, the captain will like that!’
Japaneseお前が、今回仕入れた一番のお宝だからな。
‘Because you're the best treasure we've picked up this time.’
English says she should keep him warm on cold voyages; French calls her their finest catch of the day.
English says she should keep him warm on cold voyages; German says the captain will like good wine and a sweet kitten.
English says she should keep him warm on cold voyages; Japanese calls her the best treasure they picked up.
(Shhh. We'll talk later.)
Danke für die Einladung.
‘Thanks for the invitation.’
English has K'lyhia hushing you; German has her thanking for the invitation.
(Hush now, your name. Make ready. And I'll need that satchel you received from Ealdgyth in a short while...)
Ye ready, then? We'll be off as soon as the boat's loaded.
Wir sind bereit, Kurs auf die östlichen Lande zu nehmen.
‘We are ready to set course for the eastern lands.’
German says they are ready to sail for the eastern lands; English only waits for the boat to be loaded.
Ah, fine grog an' a fine woman. The captain'll be pleased with this haul.
Aber für einen guten Wein und ein gelenkiges Miezekätzchen lässt der Kapitän schon mal eine günstige Brise aus.
‘... But for a good wine and a supple pussycat, the captain will gladly let a favourable breeze go by.’
English says the captain will be pleased with this haul; German says the captain will even skip a favourable wind for it.
Pray do not stare so. This was the most expedient method of gaining access to the ship.
C'était le seul moyen de monter à bord de leur navire sans faire la moindre victime.
‘It was the only way to get aboard their ship without causing a single casualty.’
Japanese最小限の犠牲で商船に乗り込むにはこの戦術が最適だったんです。
‘This tactic was the best way to board the merchant ship with the fewest sacrifices.’
English calls it the most expedient way aboard; French says it was the only way aboard without any casualties.
English calls it the most expedient way aboard; Japanese says it was the best way aboard with the fewest sacrifices.
I will take that satchel from you now. You may have it back after I take the items I need.
Hier, nimm den Rest.
‘Here, take the rest.’
English has K'lyhia asking you for the satchel; German has her handing you back the rest.
'Ey, what mischief are you two about!?
I was merely borrowing some clothes. You wouldn't wish me to catch a chill from this brisk ocean air, would you?
Ye'll be dancin' yerself warm once we get ye on the ship, lass.
Ouais, t'as raison. J'ai rien dit.
‘Yeah, you're right. Forget I said anything.’
GermanHm, nun gut.
‘Hm, all right then.’
Japaneseそういうことなら、しかたねぇが……。
‘If that's how it is, it can't be helped, but...’
English jokes she will dance herself warm on the ship; French just concedes she is right.
English jokes she will dance herself warm on the ship; German just grudgingly accepts.
English jokes she will dance herself warm on the ship; Japanese just grudgingly accepts.
Ye better slip off that ratty robe afore ye meet the captain.
Of course, of course!
I'll be happy to show him the performance that awaits!
C'était mon intention depuis le début !
‘That was my intention from the start!’
GermanDas musst du mir nicht extra sagen!
‘You don't need to tell me that!’
Japanese言われずとも、自分から脱ぎ捨てます！
‘Even without being told, I'll throw it off myself!’
English promises to show him "the performance that awaits"; French says taking the robe off was her plan all along.
English promises to show him "the performance that awaits"; German says she needs no telling to take the robe off.
English promises to show him "the performance that awaits"; Japanese says she will throw the robe off herself.
The bitch Admiral's lapdog! Come back fer that lesson, 'ave ye?
T'es venue te faire donner une nouvelle leçon, ma p'tite panthère ?
‘Did you come to get another lesson, my little panther?’
Doesmaga keeps calling K'lyhia this sneering pet name, fit for a cat-like Miqo'te. The English calls her a lapdog.
Das Schoßhündchen von Admiral Meckerweib.
‘The lapdog of Admiral Nag-Woman.’
Doesmaga mocks K'lyhia and twists Merlwyb's name: meckern means 'to nag', and Weib means 'woman'.
It is I who shall be teaching this day! My lecture will focus on the manipulation of reality through applied strategy!
Je suis juste ici pour démontrer la proposition qui dit que les stratégies serrrvent à construire la réalité que nous désirons !
‘I am simply here to prove the proposition which says that strategies serve to build the reality we desire!’
French K'lyhia comes to prove a mathematical proposition; English K'lyhia announces a lecture.
Um zu beweisen, dass man mit der richtigen Strategie seine Träume verwirklichen kann!
‘To prove that with the right strategy one can make one's dreams come true!’
Japanese「戦術は、望む現実を作るためにある」この命題を証明しに来たのです！！
‘I have come to prove this proposition!!’
German K'lyhia comes to prove a claim, not to teach a lesson as in English.
Japanese K'lyhia comes to prove a proposition, as in mathematics; English K'lyhia comes to teach.
Enough o' this damn yappin'! By the time I'm done with ye, ye'll remember who yer real master is!
Toi et tes idées ridicules, vous allez nourrir la poiscaille au fond d'la mer !
‘You and your ridiculous ideas, you're going to feed the fish at the bottom of the sea!’
GermanQuallenfutter bist du, nicht mehr!
‘You're jellyfish food, nothing more!’
Japanese身の程知らずな妄想ごと、クラゲの餌にしてやろうぞ！
‘Along with your presumptuous delusions, I'll make you jellyfish food!’
English threatens to remind her who her real master is; French says she will feed the fish.
English threatens to remind her who her real master is; German calls her jellyfish food.
English threatens to remind her who her real master is; Japanese threatens to make her jellyfish food.
J'vais te montrer qu'y a pas de rêves ou d'espoir dans c'bas monde, moi !
‘I'll show you there are no dreams or hope in this lowly world, me!’
GermanTräume! Pah!
‘Dreams! Bah!’
Japanese畜生に、夢や希望など存在せぬと思い知れ！
‘Learn that for a beast, dreams and hope do not exist!’
English tells her to stop yapping; French mocks her, saying there are no dreams or hope in this world.
English tells her to stop yapping; German scoffs at her dreams.

Well, I ain't fallin' fer yer bloody tricks!
I've been expecting you, your name. As ever, K'lyhia's predictions prove accurate almost down to the moment. And her mind is especially sharp with such a dangerous confrontation in the offing.
K'lyhia arbeitet auf Hochtouren daran, Doesmaga zur Strecke zu bringen.
‘K'lyhia is working flat out to bring Doesmaga down.’
English says K'lyhia's predictions are accurate almost to the moment; German says she is working flat out against Doesmaga.
Ye rabid little cur!
Our numbers matter not; it is strategy that will win this battle!
Prepare yourself, Doesmaga! With your defeat will I cast off the shackles you closed on my soul!
Ich habe sie längst zerschlagen!
‘The shackles you once put on me ... I smashed them long ago!’
English says she will cast off the shackles by defeating him; German says she broke them long ago.
Ye think so, eh? Think yer fancy magicks're a match fer my blade!? Ye've got another thing comin'!
Attends un peu que j't'éduque comme tu l'mérites !
‘Just wait till I teach you the way you deserve!’
GermanEine tollwütige Töle wie du gehört an die Leine!
‘I'll say it again: a rabid mutt like you belongs on a leash!’
Japanese迷惑な狂犬は今一度、鎖につなぎ、完全なる調教をしてやろうぞ！
‘A troublesome mad dog like you, I will once more put in chains and train completely!’
English mocks her magic against his blade; French threatens to teach her as she deserves.
English mocks her magic against his blade; German says a rabid mutt like her belongs on a leash.
English mocks her magic against his blade; Japanese threatens to chain the "mad dog" and train her.
Doesmaga now faces defeat. He will flee to the starboard rail.
Obvious. Next comes his attempt to escape into the sea.
Ye think yer pullin' me strings, do ye!? Think I'll dance to yer tune?
Du dachtest wohl, du könntest mich einfach so schnappen?!
‘You thought you could just catch me like that?!’
English accuses her of pulling his strings; German says she thought she could simply catch him.
It is at this moment he notices the Yellowjackets I had you summon in my explicit instructions to Rhylzirn.
You were a fool to return, Doesmaga! I hear you're fond of shackles, so we brought a set especially for you!
Tu vas avoir tout le temps que tu veux de réfléchir à tes crimes quand tu seras derrière les barreaux !
‘You'll have all the time you want to reflect on your crimes when you're behind bars!’
GermanWir haben dir ein schönes Plätzchen reserviert ... im Kerker!
‘We've reserved a nice little spot for you ... in the dungeon!’
Japanese貴様が大っ嫌いな忠犬に、お縄を頂戴する気分をじっくり聞かせてもらうぞ、監獄でな！！
‘In prison, you'll tell us at length how it feels to be bound by the loyal dogs you hate so much!’
English jokes that he is fond of shackles so they brought a set; French says he will reflect on his crimes behind bars.
English jokes that he is fond of shackles so they brought a set; German says a nice spot awaits him in the dungeon.

‘I have waited a long time for this moment, Doesmaga!’
Japaneseこの時を待ち望んだぞ、デュースマガ！！
‘I've been longing for this moment, Doesmaga!’
English mocks Doesmaga as a fool to return; German says the speaker has long awaited this moment.
English mocks Doesmaga as a fool to return; Japanese says the speaker has longed for this moment.
Thus concludes today's lecture.
以上、証明終わりです。
‘With that, the proof is complete.’
FrenchEt voilà, démonstrrration terminée.
‘And there you have it: prrroof complete.’
GermanUnd so geht mein Traum in Erfüllung - genau wie berechnet!
‘And so my dream comes true - just as calculated!’
The title frames the quest as a proof. K'lyhia sets out to prove that strategy exists to create the reality you desire. Her last line is a Q.E.D.
True to the title's «Démonstration», 'proof', K'lyhia ends with this Q.E.D.
English ends "today's lecture"; German says her dream comes true just as calculated.
Thank you, your name. This strategy would not have succeeded without your flawless execution.
...Which suggests that my tactics yet require more work. One must allow for some small deviation in performance.
D'ailleurs, il m'en reste encore une à mettre en œuvrrre, et pas des moindres.
‘Besides, I still have one more to carry out, and not the least of them.’
English says her tactics still need work; French says she still has one more important strategy to carry out.
Man muss sie auch umsetzen können.
‘One must also be able to carry it out.’
German says a strategy is worthless unless someone can execute it; English says her tactics need more work.
I believe, however, that I now understand where my calculations went awry: it is not enough to wish to shape reality; one must also have a complete understanding of the reality one wishes to obtain.
Les stratégies serrrvent à construire la réalité que nous désirons... or moi, il y a une réalité que je désire mais dont j'ai détourné les yeux bien trop longtemps.
‘Strategies serve to build the reality we desire... yet as for me, there is a reality I desire but have looked away from for far too long.’
Japanese「戦術は、望む現実を作るためにある」なのに私は……本当に望む現実から目を背けていたんですから。
‘"Tactics exist to create the reality one desires," and yet I... had been turning my eyes away from the reality I truly desire.’
GermanDas ist richtig, aber ich hatte vergessen, was überhaupt mein Traum ist.
‘That is right, but I had forgotten what my dream even is.’
English says one must fully understand the desired reality; French says she looked away from what she desired for too long.
English says one must fully understand the desired reality; Japanese says she was looking away from what she truly desired.
German K'lyhia admits she forgot what her own dream was; English states an abstract lesson.
It is time I sought out our guildmaster!
Pray convey to Mistress Thubyrgeim my fondest wishes, and my appreciation for all that she has done for me.
The true test of my strategies now begins!
You have our gratitude. Without your bravery and skill, the Yellowjackets would still be floundering in Doesmaga's wake. Pray also send our regards to Acting Guildmaster Thubyrgeim.
Ohne deine Hilfe hätte ich meine Peiniger nie dingfest machen können.
‘Without your help I could never have caught my tormentors.’
English says the Yellowjackets would still be trailing Doesmaga; German says the speaker could never have caught their own tormentors.
Welcome back, your name. There is much I would ask you, but first, may I have the satchel you received during your assignment?
Fight, ye worthless sea slugs! I oughta keelhaul the lot o' ye!
Your brutalized crew is not up to the task, Doesmaga! I calculate our odds of victory at 99%!
Contrrre eux, nos chances de victoire sont de 99,99 % !
‘Against them, our odds of victory are 99.99%!’
English gives the odds of victory as 99%; French says 99.99%.
Ich habe alles genauestens berechnet!
‘I have calculated everything with the utmost precision!’
German gives no percentage, only that everything is precisely calculated.
Hmph, so ye can handle a few deck scrags. Me axe'll carve yer petty plans into bloody ruin!
Watch the battle text. There the pirate appears as Doesmaga Poisonheart. The pirate mocks: 'so ye can handle a few deck scrags'.
Y valent pas plus que d'la chair à canon.
‘They're worth no more than cannon fodder.’
Japaneseふん、所詮使い捨てのコマにすぎぬわ。
‘Hmph, in the end they are nothing more than disposable pawns.’
French Doesmaga writes off his own crew as cannon fodder; English grants that you beat some deckhands.
Japanese Doesmaga writes off his crew as disposable pawns; English grants that you beat some deckhands.
May I have the leather satchel you received during your assignment?
The original owner needs her costume back, you see. I'll make sure everything is returned safe and sound.
Now, let us speak of K'lyhia. I am glad to know that she has finally freed herself to pursue her heart's desire. And you are to thank for awakening the foreseer to her self-imposed fetters.
The brilliance of K'lyhia's strategies served to blind her to her own feelings, and it pained me to see her suffer so.
Your example may even encourage K'lyhia to improve her combat abilities, although such will surely come in time─after all, she intends to study under the guildmaster's direct instruction. Imagine those two obsessive arcanists, and the complexity of the tactics they will develop...
Aber der Gildenmeister hat sie daran erinnert, dass es so viel gibt, für das es sich zu leben lohnt.
‘But the guildmaster reminded her that there is so much worth living for.’
English expects K'lyhia's combat abilities to improve; German says the guildmaster reminded her there is much worth living for.
It may very well be that your actions in bringing them together will prove the catalyst that sparks a new era of invention in the art of arcanima.
Zuerst hatte ich meine Zweifel, ob du dich mit ganzer Energie dem Studium der Hermetik widmen würdest.
‘At first I had my doubts whether you would devote yourself with all your energy to the study of the hermetic arts.’
English says you may have sparked a new era in arcanima; German says she first doubted your devotion to your studies.
You, too, should look to the improvement of your discipline if you are to keep pace with all that is certain to follow. To that end, I offer you a new technique, one I pray allows you to more readily drive back your foes on the battlefield.
In diesem Haus der Lehre haben alle etwas von dir lernen können.
‘In this house of learning, everyone was able to learn something from you.’
English says she offers you a new technique; German says everyone in this house of learning learned from you.
Sweep aside the crew of the Morningstar and defeat Doesmaga!
your name! This geometry will turn the tide of the battle!
[name], utilise la magie !
‘[name], use magic!’
French just says to use magic; English points to a specific geometry on the field.
[name], bringe dich in die richtige Position für deine Zauber!
‘[name], get yourself into the right position for your spells!’
German tells you to position yourself for your spells; English points to a geometry that turns the battle.
