A Dip with Societte
The crew brings Kou to the island of Mimaka, where they hope to lift the curse on Kou's legs. In the meantime Societte dons a new outfit and performs various curative dances that whisk away Yuel's fatigue but exhaust Societte in the process.
Societte and Yuel, successors of the lost royal families from a thousand years ago, continue to travel with the crew.
Over the course of their journey, they found another successor named Kou, who was caught up in the feud between the royal families and Ninetails.
With the crew's help, they struck down the evil incarnate that was Ninetails, thereby saving Kou from a darker fate.
Following those events he goes on a journey alone, parting with (Captain) and company for some time.
Months have passed when they next meet Kou again.
Kou has been rendered largely immobile by a curse put on his legs.
The crew pays a visit to Mimaka, the island of blessing, in hopes of finding a cure for the curse.
Yuel: Whew... Hot springs are the best...
Societte: I love how relaxing it feels in here...
Yuel: Ya can say that again... Hehe, yer wide open!
Societte: Eep! Y-Yuel!
Yuel: Ahaha. Just 'cause yer in the water doesn't mean yer safe from the tickle monster! Coochie-coochie-coo!
Societte: Aha, ahaha! That tickles, Yuel! I... I'm gonna have to fight back!
Yuel: Ahahaha! Wow, Societte! Aiiee, not my ears! Ya know how sensitive I get over there!
Societte: I do, that's why I'm going there... I've been taking this lying down for too long!
Yuel: Ahaha! I-I give up!
Vyrn: Sigh... What are those two even doing?
Lyria: Teehee... They always get along so well.
The crew is taking a relaxing dip in the hot springs.
However, Kou is not with them. They got separated slightly earlier.
Washers: This way, boy!
Kou: Hey! You don't have to pull—
Kou: Waaaah!
Societte and Yuel had offered to help him into the hot springs because he couldn't walk under his own power.
But the innkeeper had a few helpers take him away for a more efficient washing instead.
Being left without cause to use the special outfit she had prepared, Societte droops her shoulders in disappointment.
Lyria: Um... I'm sure you'll have another chance to use it sometime!
Lyria: I mean, Kou did agree to go in with you at the end!
Societte: You're right... I guess I'll have to wait for another chance to use it.
Societte: Sigh... What a shame... I guess I unpacked this outfit for nothing.
Yuel: Don't think I've seen that one before. Any chance that's the one ya use to treat wounds and illnesses?
Societte: Mm-hm, I got it from my mom. It's for the Recovery Dance.
Societte: My mom danced it for me once when I got really sick as a child.
Societte: I felt better immediately.
Societte: Haha. I still remember being so surprised and bombarding my mom with questions.
Lyria: Teehee, that outfit must bring back so many memories of your mother.
Societte: Yeah...
With a nod, Societte slips off her outer garment.
Societte: It was also used for ablutions originally.
Vyrn: Ablutions? Haven't heard much about that...
Societte: It's a ritual where you use water to cleanse one's body of impurities.
Societte: It was also worn when helping the injured enter a bath.
Societte: You'd take off the outer garment like I just did when getting in.
Vyrn: Neat... You can do the Recovery Dance okay like that?
Societte: It'd be hard wearing just the kimono slip. But it's easier to do the Tranquility Dance this way, which instills a sense of calm in anyone who watches.
Societte: From what my mom told me, you perform ablutions with the sick or injured, then do the Tranquility Dance.
Societte: It's only when they're relaxed enough that you put the outer garment back on and start the Recovery Dance.
Yuel: Whew... That's really somethin' special ya got there, Societte.
Vyrn: I would've taken it for plain ol' clothes if I didn't know otherwise.
Societte: ...
Societte: Hey, (Captain), why don't you join me in the hot spring?
Lyria: Huh? Why the sudden invitation?
Societte: There's even more secrets hidden in this attire that I'd like to show you directly.
Gran is the Main Character
Societte: Besides, aren't you guys tired too? A dip would be so refreshing...
Choose: Erm, I dunno about that...
Societte: Y-you don't want to take a dip with me, (Captain)?
(Captain) tries to clear any misunderstanding.
Yuel: Ahaha... That's pretty much the same thing Kou said.
Yuel: But it'll be fine! I'll wear either my bathin' suit or bathrobe! And you can rest assured Societte won't be goin' in naked!
Yuel: C'mon, (Captain), just say yes!
Though hesitant at first, (Captain) eventually acquiesces.
Societte: Ehehe... I get to take a dip with (Captain)...
Societte: Oh, that's right!
Societte: Um, if you don't mind, is it okay if I wash your back?
Societte: You do so much for us all the time, so this'd be a way for me to pay you back...
Lyria: Ooh, I want to wash (Captain)'s back too!
Societte: Teehee... We can do it together, Lyria.
Lyria: I'd like that! I've never washed someone's back before, but I'll try my best, (Captain)!
Djeeta is the Main Character
Societte: Besides, aren't you guys tired too? A dip would be so refreshing...
(Captain) responds with a warm smile, looking to the Erune with genuine curiosity.
Societte: Oh, that's right!
Societte: Um, if you don't mind, is it okay if I wash your back?
Societte: You do so much for us all the time, so this'd be a way for me to pay you back...
Lyria: Ooh, I want to wash (Captain)'s back too!
Societte: Teehee... We can do it together, Lyria.
Lyria: I'd like that! I've never washed someone's back before, but I'll try my best, (Captain)!
The two manage to draw a sheepish grin from the captain.

Societte: Teehee... One big happy crew in the hot spring... What fun...
And that is how (Captain) and company ended up joining the Erune pair for a soak in the hot spring.
Vyrn: Nothing wrong with messing around, but I hope you're not forgetting about us...
Societte: Oh, sorry... Gimme a sec.
Societte steps out of the hot spring and gestures for the others to come over to her.
(Captain) and company approach in puzzlement.
Societte: Go on and touch my clothing.
Following her instructions, the others reach out with their hands.
Lyria: Wow! Even after all that time in the hot spring, it's not wet at all!
Vyrn: I can't even feel any heaviness... Wait, am I really holding this? It's gotta be some kinda illusion!
Societte: Haha. Oh, you're definitely holding on to it.
Societte: This outfit can do so much more than just purify.
Societte: In addition to being able to dry itself instantly, it's also incredibly lightweight.
Lyria: So that's the secret to the Recovery and Tranquility Dances... It really is amazing.
Vyrn: But if we've got this amazing outfit already, couldn't we have solved Kou's problem without comin' to Mimaka?
Societte: Well... There are limits to what it can do.
Societte: The curse that's been put on Kou is too strong for me to do anything about.
Societte: But if the curse can be weakened on this island...
Lyria: Then you'd be able to cure him!
Societte: Uh-huh. Of course, I won't know if it'll work until I try it...
Choose: I have every confidence in you.
Societte: Teehee... Thanks, (Captain).
Yuel: Societte, I've gotta ask... Any chance the dance cures dizziness after a long bath?
Societte: I think it would, but I can't say for sure...
Societte: Wait, is something wrong? Yuel, your face is bright red!
Yuel: It's not every day we get to bathe in a hot spring... Thought I'd take advantage of the opportunity...
Yuel: Hoo boy, the world's spinnin' round and round... I ain't feelin' so good...
Vyrn: Guess that explains why you stayed quiet for so long!
Vyrn: Loosening up in a hot spring is cool and all, but taking it too far doesn't do your body any favors!
Societte: Okay, I'm going to try the Recovery Dance now. Let's see how well it works.
Societte puts her kimono jacket back on, whips out her fan, then whirls into a cascade of graceful steps.
Yuel: Ooh! That's what I'm talkin' about!
Yuel: I feel way better now... Can't believe I was feelin' woozy only moments ago!
Vyrn: Whoa, that sure took effect fast!
Societte: Ehehe... Now to do it for the rest of you.
Societte: We could all use a little pick-me-up after running all over the place for Kou.
One glimpse at her dance, and any hint of fatigue the crew feels is instantly wiped away. Instead, they are now brimming with energy.
Lyria: Wow! I feel so much lighter and ready to do anything now...
Vyrn: Wouldja believe I'm actually brimmin' with energy.
Societte: Ehehe, I'm glad it worked...
Societte suddenly reels before collapsing on the ground.
Yuel: What the... Societte! You okay?
Societte: Ahaha... There's only one little problem with this outfit...
Societte: The Restoration and Tranquility Dances take so much outta me...
Societte: Especially when you consider I just came out of the hot spring... I...
Societte: Rgh...
Yuel: No! Societte!
Lyria: Yikes! Now it's Societte's cheeks that are bright red!
Yuel: Curing someone else only to get sick yourself? Oh, the irony! Take it easy, Societte!
Extended time spent soaking in the hot spring has led to excess blood rushing to her head, causing the Erune to collapse.
The crew act in haste as they tend to her.
