"Your Majesty…!"
"Thank you for saving us!"
"We can finally escape!"
Rui nodded. "They held you hostage because they thought they could win, because they knew we didn't want any of you to get hurt. We're sure you guys should be fine from here on out, but we'll make sure to send some aid from the Kandrian Empire."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"All hail Emperor Rui!"
"All hail the Dawnbringer!"
