[ This video's quality isn't very good. Larsa looks harried, worried. ]

Pardon me. I had heard tell that some time ago, there was an earthquake here in Narshe. Earlier today, we were hit with another, though I've been told it wasn't as bad.

Still, there are citizens who are in need, and I alone do not have the resources to manage this.

If there are any who can provide aid, I would be very grateful to you, indeed.

[Palom's looking a bit angry. Okay, I lied. He's a LOT angry. He's been pacing since he's heard these rumors, and while it's okay for people to talk about him, it's not okay for people to talk about Leonora.]

Look, everyone can say what they want about me - my tunic is not a dress, thank you, nor is it poofy - but you guys can leave Leonora out of this. She's too thoughtful and innocent to even take notice of these stupid rumors. If I so happen to hear anyone say anything bad about her-

Leave a nice girl out of it, got it? Or I'll find other uses for my magic besides roast meat.

[YES, HE'S DEFENDING HER HONOR.]

[Video/Action in Figaro]

[Since he has been spending a reasonable amount of time in Figaro between his flights elsewhere, Balthier has picked up a rumor or two during his most recent stop. One of them is about his own personal pursuits, and having overheard that bit of gossip hasn't bothered him at all, but there's another rumor flying that besmirches the reputation of two very decent ladies, and that he does not approve of. Not in the least. He is near Penelo's cafe, which he just may have been visiting despite its proprietor having returned home.]

Terra, Celes. If the rumors have already reached your ears, please know that I will do all I can to stomp them out. I won't stand for such slander, and refuse to let your reputations suffer any potential damage.
