* Avatar: So far, so good. This passage appears fairly well traveled. Although...I see a fork in the road ahead. Which way do we go, Elise?
* Elise: The path on the right leads to an area near my quarters. Camilla said that the other path leads more or less to the throne room.
* Avatar: Right. Left path it is.
* Elise: But...she also said the left path is like a maze. She warned me to NEVER take that path, you guys!
* Avatar: Don't worry, Elise. You wouldn't believe what we've had to overcome to get here. I'm confident that we can get through anything together.
* Elise: If you say so...
* Avatar: What's the matter?
* Elise: It's just...you almost seem like a different person now. You're so...commanding. I guess I just have to get used to you being all grown up...
* Avatar: It's true...I've done a lot of growing since I left Nohr. But don't worry, Elise. I'm still the same old Avatar. And I'll always do everything I can to protect you, Little Sister.
* Elise: Aww, thank you. I'm so glad you came back! I love you so much!
* Avatar: Haha! Whoa! Easy with the monster hugs. I almost fell over!
* Elise: Heehee! (Elise and Avatar leave)
* ??? (Effie): Ah! Did you hear that? That's Lady Elise's laugh!
* ??? (Arthur): Oh ho! You're right! Let's report this to Lady Camilla posthaste... (screen transition)
* Ryoma: This part of the tunnel seems a bit ominous. Be on guard, everyone!
* Takumi: Yeah, are you seeing all of these traps? Most of 'em have been sprung, but I bet there are even more that haven't.
* Hinoka: And the ones that did spring look like they were pretty effective. I'm seeing more corpses than I'd like...
* Sakura: C-corpses? Eek! I thought those were just decorations to make it spooky! I'm scared, Avatar.
* Avatar: It's OK, Sakura. If you want to close your eyes, I can lead you through this part.
* Sakura: Oh...th-thank you so much...
* Elise: What about me? I'm scared too!
* Avatar: Heh. I can help lead you, too. Just come over to this side.
* Elise: Yay! Heehee! Uh-oh...do you hear that? There's someone behind us!
* Avatar: Elise...have you ever seen any Faceless down here? (screen transition; Camilla approaches)
* Camilla: Ah, Elise. There you are! I've been looking all over for you.
* Elise: Camilla! What are you doing down here?
* Camilla: Like I said, I was looking for you. Are you hurt, darling? Who are all these people? Are you being kidnapped right now?!
* Elise: What? No! These are—
* Camilla: The Hoshidans! I knew it. Well, I'm so glad we could meet down here. How DARE you bother my baby sister. I shall now make you all dearly regret ever stepping foot in here!
* Avatar: Hold on, Camilla. It's me, Avatar! We're not kidnapping Elise!
* Camilla: Avatar! How can this be? You're back in Nohr!
* Avatar: It's...a long story.
* Camilla: Well, have you come to your senses? Are you returning to Nohr for good?
* Avatar: Oh...um... Sorry, but no. I want Hoshido and Nohr to be at peace, and that can't happen while Garon lives.
* Camilla: Hmm. I see. So you want to come back, but these awful people are still confusing your little head. Don't worry, darling. Big Sister is here to take care of these monsters for you!
* Avatar: Camilla, no! You don't understand!
* Elise: Please listen, Sister!
* Camilla: Don't worry, Elise. I promise to save our precious Avatar. Once I've killed all his/her friends, he's/she's sure to remember his/her true family. Right? Right!
