Hm? Was that a whinny just now? Oh, I think I see Hinoka. It must be her pegasus I heard...
There you go... Feels good, doesn't it? Oh, don't get your feathers all ruffled! It just makes it harder to brush you... We've been partners for a while; it was so long ago that I chose to be a sky knight... Hm?
Oh, sorry, Hinoka. I didn't mean to interrupt you...
Hi, Corrin. It's not a problem at all. What can I do for you?
Well, I overheard you talking about when you decided to become a sky knight... I'm actually curious why you did it.
I don't know if it's a story I should tell you.
... No, that's wrong. Now that we're reunited, I can share it with you. After you were kidnapped, I was so mad, I didn't know what to do with myself.
On several occasions, I snuck out of the castle, thinking I could come save you.
Really?!
But I was always stopped, either by castle staff, Ryoma, or even Mother herself. I was just so angry that those Nohrians had stolen you away from us...
And I was mad at myself for not being able to do anything about it.
Hinoka...
As I got older, I realized that I was trying to do the impossible. I was so young; there was no way I could walk through all of Nohr and save you.
And then one day I saw a pegasus flying...
So that was when you decided to become a sky knight?
Indeed. That decision has driven almost everything I've done since then. It's really made me into the person I am today—much stronger and determined. I suppose I should thank you, Corrin, even though I wish you'd been spared it.
I'm the one who should be thanking you. If things hadn't turned out exactly as they did, I'd have needed you to save me! Thank you, Hinoka.
