• For starters, the relationships between Lute and the women in his harem are each heartwarming, but add in the fact that they seem to have developed pleasant relationships among themselves is also pleasant in and of itself...
  • Roxanne and Luceria for example have formed a close friendship, and are almost always seen hanging out together. When one considers they both used to deal with being isolated for years, it's nice to see them opening up to more than just Lute.
  • Emeralia and Shamsiel too share a nice relationship with both sides helping the other, such as when Shamsiel was being falsely accused of the attacks of the fake succubus and fake Shamsiel, Emeralia doesn't doubt Shamsiel for a second even saying that if anyone wanted to harm Shamsiel, they'd have to kill her first.
  • Shamsiel and Gladys have a bit of a rivalry when it comes to getting close to Lute, but they still respect each other to give each their time with him when they feel it's right.
  • Isis doesn't quite get as much screen time as the rest, but it's clear that at the very least, she and the others ARE on very good terms.
• During the celebration in Boan after Lute defeats the Wraith, Shamsiel was approached by, showered with compliments by, and danced with many of the soldiers. She certainly came a long way in the eyes of the people since back when she had lived there 2 years ago, the people were terrified of her. Similar for Emeralia who was also invited by the soldiers to dance. It's really heartwarming to think how much of an improvement it was for them ever since they met Lute.
• When Shamsiel is first suspected of the attacks in Bustenhalter, she looks at Emeralia and tells her that she figures she must suspect her too. Emeralia says no. Reason being that she and Lute both truly loved one another, so there would be no reason for her to cast a shadow on that happiness. Shamsiel is clearly grateful to hear this, and responds: "You're a nice human."
• One of THE most impactful scenes in this entire story involves Shamsiel. There was a series of incidents occuring that made people start to question trusting Shamsiel: The Ghoul incident in Boan, the appearance of a fake succubus in Bustenhalter and then Vunderbalt, and then a very vicious attack by an impostor that looked exactly like the real Shamsiel killing several soldiers in Bustenhalter. Each time this happens, pressure gets put on Shamsiel, but thankfully they manage to easily prove her innocence each time... Except for the last time: When Lute, Shamsiel, and the others return from Vunderbalt to Bustenhalter the day after the impostor Shamsiel's attack, the soldiers try to kill Shamsiel on-sight. Despite the generals and others vouching for her, the soldiers refuse to listen. Emeralia then steps forward and tells them that if they wanted to kill her highness Shamsiel, they'd have to kill HER first (this even shocks Shamsiel). She reminds them that it was Shamsiel who saved Lute and thus the Kingdom back when Lute was going to be executed by Bernstein. The soldiers still don't back down and charge toward Shamsiel, but stop at the last second. Why? Lute threw himself between them and her, and they almost kill him on the spot by mistake had they not stopped at the very last second (the spears actually poke into his clothes). Lute manages to finally calm the soldiers down and convince them to leave the matter to him. They stand down and leave Shamsiel alone. Later on, everyone is discussing what just happened. Lute says that if Schlamm and Zant said the attacker looked just like Shamsiel then it had to have looked like her. Shamsiel approaches Lute in tears claiming her innocence. Lute tells her that he believed her, and holds her in his arms. She starts trembling. This is one of the very few times Shamsiel has ever shown this level of fear, but it wasn't necessarily HER safety that she was worried about. The last time was when she was blaming herself for Lute's false imprisonment and near-execution in the previous game. She then starts to tell Lute that perhaps they should divorce, she didn't want to cause him any more trouble, and that she would be content to go back to living in Boan if he came and visited her now and then. Lute pulls her closer and tells her that no matter what anyone says, she would ALWAYS be his queen. Lute even makes a joke that without her around, there'd be nobody to threaten to "squeeze him dry". She chokes up as she calls him a dummy and cheers up as he holds her. Meanwhile, the others in the room are watching this transpire, and it leads to Schlamm uttering a VERY heartwarming line: "A demon who can cry (like this) is no demon at all". In other words, this scene is when everyone finally sees how "humane" Shamsiel really is, even if she isn't at all human.
  • Another small part during this event is the morning when Lute and the others are heading back to Bustenhalter, Cardinal Canossa starts to say that all of this WAS because Lute had married a "demon/monster". As he continues to berate Lute and Shamsiel's competence, Emeralia finally tells him that he better watch his mouth for his own safety's sake. Canossa asks if she was threatening him. Emeralia tells him that it is FOR his safety that he better shut up. Canossa looks around and all the soldiers (including Motaire) who have been listening are glaring daggers at him! He tries to say more, but they cut him off and warn him that if he says one more bad thing about their king and queen whom they owe their lives to... They'd cut him in half.
• While visiting Fronce, a gigantic cyclops attacks everyone. Everyone save Lute assumes the worst and tries to attack it, only getting crushed or swatted aside for their trouble. Lute, however, realized the cyclops was no mindless beast, it was afraid, and when other sought to attack it, it was just trying to scare them off. So he decided to walk right up to it, asks it its name (Though it didn't have one), and taught it how to play rock, paper, scissors. IT. WORKED. In fact, he spent most of the rest of the day showing whom everyone had thought a monster, friendship, and as the day ended, he explained the cyclops had been misunderstood and everyone assumed the worst about it when they never got the time to know who it really was.
  • What happens immediately afterwards is even better, as everyone present who still bore any resentment and contempt for Lute took what Lute has said into consideration, and immediately realized it wasn't just the cyclops they had been foolish enough to write off with cruel and ignorant prejudices.
• Although she was a major figure in Lute's harem, and she never got her own route in the original game... I am happy to say that by the end of this story, Gladys finally officially marries Lute and becomes one of his wives/queens. 2 more of the original harem to go... Here's hoping!
• On the first night of Lute, Shamsiel, and Gladys' visit to Fronce, Shamsiel decides to give Lute and Gladys some alone time to make love to each other, but once she decides they'd had enough, she comes back so that SHE can have her turn. When all is said and done, Lute has fallen asleep, and Shamsiel helps him back to their room to get him to bed. Gladys and Shamsiel remark on how cute Lute looks while he sleeps, and they decide to sing him a lullaby together... Later that night, a couple of ghouls try to attack Lute in his sleep, but they're thwarted by Shamsiel and Gladys together. Makes you wonder if secretly they were actually just trying to help Lute sleep however they could, considering they were in a place where they all KNEW someone was going to try to do something to kill them.
