If I ever catch either of you near Martel again, I won't hesitate to run you through. Consider this a fair warning.

[Action]

[Of course, telling two murderous assholes to back off is like inviting them to your doorstep, which is exactly where Yuan will be. Well, his front lawn, to be more precise. If they are stupid enough to show up, at least he'll have a nice excuse to follow through with his threat. As much as Martel insists these guys have been punished enough, Yuan wouldn't mind having them pay a bit more.

If you happen to be passing by house #8, feel free to bug him. He doesn't seem to be doing much besides sitting on the grass and sketching something on a piece of paper.]

Don't be ridiculous. If you were to take this thing into outer space, you wouldn't live to see another day.

Oh... then what is it?

A vehicle designed to fly through the sky. It's called a Rheaird.

A Rheaird... wait, those are the things that Lloyd was using to search for the Centurion cores. That's how he was able to travel around so quickly.

... Is that so? [He'd reclaimed those things shortly after the worlds were reunited, but it'd make sense he'd loan a new one to Lloyd for those Centurion Cores.]

Yes, that's what Raine said, at least.

Hm, there's no doubt it'd make things a lot easier for him.

Are you a friend of his back in our world?

... Associate might be a better word.

Then... you must miss him too.

...

[He doesn't even know how to respond to that one. He was never that close to Lloyd and at this point it might be better if the boy never returns to Luceti, because who knows what kind of effect it could have on Kratos if he ends up disappearing again. On the other hand, it somehow made Yuan feel more at ease to know that the kid who beat Mithos and reunited the worlds was around. He had a positive influence on everyone from Aselia.]

Why did they send him home, but not us? It's not fair...

You'd rather be sent home and leave him here in your stead?

N-no, I... that's not what I meant. I'm glad he got to go home, but... I want to go home too.

To continue your quest to revive Ratatosk?

No, to see Richter and Marta again.

So Ratatosk's other half is bound to Aselia by something as frail as friendship.

What's wrong with friendship? Everyone needs friends... don't they?

[He doesn't sound like he's quite convinced of it himself.]

Friends are a great thing to have, but also a cause of grievance when you lose them. What do you have left back home when Richter and Marta are both gone?

I...

[Yuan has a point. He's going to live forever, isn't he? Richter may be a half-elf, but even then he'll only live around a thousand years tops, and Marta will have a normal human lifespan.]

... I won't have anything.

[Yuan has a point because he's already come face to face with that reality himself. It's something Kratos has faced and it's something Emil needs to face as well.]

Living for the sake of others isn't the proper way to handle things. As much as you want them to be, your friends aren't constants in your life. You need to make the decision on your own and live for yourself.

[Yeah, but look how both of them turned out. :|]

So I'm supposed to just accept that I'm going to be alone for the rest of my life? Is that what you're saying?

[Hey now! Compared to Mithos, Yuan and Kratos are very nice gentlemen.]

Do you believe there's someone who can hold your hand and be beside you for the rest of your life? [... Err. Aside from Yuan himself.]

[They also have the emotional capacity of rocks.]

I just wanted...

[Well, that's not the point of the conversation, now is it?]

You need to stand on your own feet and accept that the most important person in your life is you. If you don't, you'll end up destroying yourself.
