** Similarly, in the scene where Elodie's agents investigated the poisoned choclate origin while her Commoner Approval is abysmal, you get this:

** Similarly, in the scene where Elodie's agents investigated the poisoned choclate with low Commoner Approval, you get this:

** The +1 Angry popup really sells it.

-->'''Elodie:''' You don't have to worry about [[spoiler:being taken back to Lillah anymore. Arisse was a traitor to the realm. She attacked me, so I had to put her down.]] ''[cheerful expression]'' So you can stay here forever!
-->''[{{beat}} as Adair stares in shock]''\\

-->'''Elodie:''' ''[exact same expression]'' Who, Briony? [[spoiler:She went to Kathre Lake looking for treasure]].

-->'''Banion:''' My ...\\

--->'''Talarist:''' If I may be of some assistance? I can provide a recommendation for the best oculists in Sedna, Your Grace.
--->'''Banion:''' Oculists?
--->'''Talarist:''' To correct your vision. You have apparently mistaken my fiancée for a woman of your acquaintance.

'''Evrard:''' Oh. Well, in that case, give the rest of these to [[spoiler:my sister Alice]], okay, princess?\\ ''[presses the basket into her hands and walks away]''\\

-->Guide the fair princess Elodie on her road to coronation. A studious girl who always resists the temptations of power and strives to prevent war at any cost. She is beloved by her people ... except for the assassin whose arrow punctured her lung.
-->Guide the agile princess Elodie on her road to coronation. Easily startled and quick to dodge, she avoids snakes, magic, court, parades ... and birthday parties - just to be safe. Too bad about that civil war.
-->Guide the clever Princess Elodie on her road to coronation. Silver-tongued and sharp-witted, she outmaneuvers her opponents with words alone. Her speeches turn enemies into allies. Her only weakness is chocolate - well, chocolate and poison ... Oh.

-->'''Banion:''' My ...
-->'''Elodie:''' My guests are already aware of my engagement to Talarist, Duke of Sedna. Therefore, you are announcing your own engagement, are you not?

-->'''Elodie:''' I am '''not''' incompetent!!
-->''[Test: Public Speaking + Presence → Failed]''

-->'''Elodie:''' My, what large breasts you have! Putting then on display for any particular reason?
-->'''Joslyn:''' Elodie!
-->'''Sirin:''' Really, my dear, [[InsultBackfire it's not polite to comment on a lady's attributes like that]]. [[ACupAngst But you are young. You will ... grow.]]

-->'''Briony:''' Thanks, Elodie! You're smarter than I remembered.
-->'''Elodie:''' Argh!

--->'''Elodie:''' ''[eats a cookie]'' This is good!
--->'''Evrard:''' My pa's a baker in town. I'm learning from him. He does the cookies, though. I mostly do bread.
--->'''Elodie:''' Is this your way of paying me back for those apples you stole?
--->'''Evrard:''' Nah. I kinda heard you might need cheering up.
--->'''Elodie:''' ''[indignant]'' I do not need cheering up!
--->'''Evrard:''' Oh. Well, in that case, give the rest of these to [[spoiler:my sister Alice]], okay, princess? ''[presses the basket into her hands and walks away]''
--->'''Elodie:''' ''[embarrassed and angry]'' (That ill-bred, disreputable, overreaching ... jerk!)

--->Without a further word, you direct the full force of your magical wrath at [[spoiler:the Earl of Io]]. There is a horrible scream, and the smell of burning flesh.
--->'''Elodie:''' [[BondOneLiner I decline]].

* If Elodie ends the game with all three Medicine skills maxed out, but didn't fund the hospital, a new hospital opens in Ixion and she cooperates with it. That ending is ''not'' mutually exclusive with paying Ixion a large sum of money to withdraw from a disputed province much earlier in the game. The idea that some of that money could have gone into funding Ixion's new hospital makes the whole situation more amusing that what was probably intended.

* Some BlackComedy: In one possible ending, [[spoiler:Kevan, Earl of Io]] agrees to marry Elodie just for the opportunity to dramatically take vengeance on her at the wedding. He is thwarted, because her guards catch him ''monologuing''.

** If Elodie has enough Internal Affairs knowledge to learn about Banion's failed courtship of Julianna, the line "Unsuccessfully romanced Julianna, Duchess of Ursul" will stay on his dossier for the entire game, regardless of what's happening in the story when the player checks his information. [[NotSoDifferent Interestingly enough]], the very similar "Unsuccessfully romanced Elodie" will appear on Talarist's dossier if Elodie rudely rejects him.
