It seems like a lot of time has passed since you and I first met. At first I was bewildered, but...your guidance has made me stronger. May we ever remain side by side.

Ah, if it isn't <player>! I just finished painting some spring-festival eggs. Not bad, if I say so myself. Take a look. What? Curious what all that lettering is? It's written in the language of Ylisse. It's a bit of a poem, I guess, that says how much I value your presence here. And see? On this side, I've painted a picture of you. Good likeness, don't you think? What, it isn't? Well, I tried, and at least now you know that I truly do value our strong bond.

Level 40 quote

Here for a chat? I appreciate that you braved the cold to come and find me, but spare a thought for your health. If you caught a cold, you wouldn't be able to enjoy the winter celebrations. In Ylisse, we have a tradition... On the day of the winter festival, we give gifts to our family and our closest friends. Normally, I'd be giving out the gifts. But hear me out, no matter how odd this sounds... It seems to me that, ever since I arrived in Askr, it's been you that's been giving gifts to me. Does that make any sense? Gifts aren't just things. You spend time with me. You're by my side, cheering me on. You make me stronger. That...makes me happier than you can guess. I'm truly grateful. I'll do what I can to do the same for you.

Level 40 quote

I've got a question for you. When somebody says "knight," what does that mean to you? Someone noble—someone who would sacrifice themselves for their allies. Hmm... A warrior who battles with pride and who doesn't flinch in the face of battle? I see. So, that's not quite how I think about things... The willingness to sacrifice yourself to save someone else is admirable, certainly. Not everyone can do that. But think about it... If you sacrifice yourself, you'll end up hurting the people who care about you. Right? Yeah, you got me. I'm talking about you, <player>. You face some hard decisions. If you want to protect others, you'd better protect yourself first. We can help each other. Let's talk about our hardships and share our ideals... We're comrades, now. That bond can't be broken—ever!

Level 40 quote

When you fight for what you believe in, struggle is inevitable...but one can never know what tomorrow will bring. There are times when it feels as if you are entombed in darkness, like you will never see light again... But as we come together, our shared faith in one another can give rise to hope, which lights the way to victory. You may have more skill than I in the art of war, but I do know one thing... Fighting alone will just get you killed. Believe in the allies who rush to your side. Even if they cannot always be there, their willingness is enough. Bonds forged on the field can shatter the shackles of despair more cleanly than any blade. Let us walk our two paths together, and forge our bonds as well, for both paths lead to one destination—peace.

Chrom: Fate-Defying Duo

At the castle

I am Chrom of Ylisse. It is my pleasure to take part in the Day of Devotion with my companion Robin.
— When summoned.
Putting your life on the line to protect those most precious to you... I think there could be no greater act of love.
— Chrom, at the castle.
Having someone to express your love to is an amazing thing. There IS more to life than constant battle!
— Robin, at the castle.
I made sure to research what everyone wanted as a gift. It's a special occasion, after all.

Hello! I come bearing an invitation to the Day of Devotion, compliments of <friend>.

On the character status screen

Chrom: Who should we give this to?
Let's consider it carefully.

— On the character status screen.

Duo Conversation

Robin: There's Lissa, Emmeryn, Lucina, Frederick... I think we've got gifts for everyone. Don't we?
Chrom: Well, all but one. What would you like your gift to be, Robin?
Robin: What? Me? You can't just come out and ask like that, you know. There are rules!
Chrom: You know I don't care about that. Just tell me what you want.
Robin: Truthfully...I can't think of anything.
Chrom: You don't want anything? Aw, come on. Think of the bind that puts me in.
Robin: You gave my life meaning when I had nothing—not even my memory. The sense of purpose I've found at your side, working for peace in the world, is all I could ever ask for.
Chrom: You're not alone in that, you know. I feel the same way. That's why I wanted to give you something nice. To show you how I feel.
Robin: All right, all right. In that case, why don't you give me one of those flowers you're wearing?
Chrom: It's only going to wilt.
Robin: I'll press it into one of my books. That way I'll never forget this Day of Devotion.
Chrom: You're too easy to please. If only Lissa could learn that from you. Speaking of, I'd better start passing out these gifts.
Robin: Don't be shy about it, Chrom. Remember, the whole point of this is to show your gratitude.
Chrom: I know, I know. No need to nag me, I'm not a child.
Robin: Hahaha...

— Duo conversation

Level 40 quote

Phew. Did we get to everyone? I'd never have guessed that showing we cared would be so...difficult. I think I'm more used to swinging a blade than delivering gifts. I'm more exhausted than I should be. Hmm. Maybe the Shepherds' only goal isn't just protecting people from their enemies... Perhaps their role is also to support and care for those they protect, so everyone can live happily, in peace. At least...that's what I think... Protect not just their lives, but their happiness as well? I think you may be on to something, Robin. It's a noble goal, ensuring that those we care for feel supported. I will hold that in my heart from now on.

Level 40 quote

Oops! I bump into you a lot, don't I? I'm sorry, but could you spare a bit of your time while we're here? It's just... It's no good. No matter what I try, I can't seem to sit still. It isn't as if I'm hoping for a battle, but... Well, I think I must be too accustomed to fighting. I enjoyed leading the Shepherds and never intended to become a ruler...but fate can have unexpected plans. No matter the world, life never seems to go as we expect it to. Still, my friends and I fought against that. Guided by the bonds I had formed with all of them, I vowed to change our dark future—to change our fate! In truth, I know that prayer alone cannot prevail against power. But my heart tells me something else. People's wishes, their pleas for help... They are never in vain. I will believe in that for as long as I live. If there is a name for that feeling, it must be justice. I'm sure you have your own justice that you believe in. So, let us each live our lives to the fullest, to protect those feelings as we carry them in our hearts.

Useless effort.
— When using a special skill
Death!
