History Heartwarming / BatenKaitos

* While most people think of it as a bad case of {{Narm}}. Kalas's apology after he wakes up after his HeelFaceTurn can be rather heartwarming. True, he was TheMole and all but ''come on'', give the guy a break. And it's true the ([[DealWithTheDevil deal with]] Melodia [[DealWithTheDevil for power]]) thing was horribly wrong, but he literally got on his hands and knees to beg everyone for forgiveness.

* While the group is camping in the desert, Kalas learns that Savyna was one of the soldiers responsible for the attack that killed his little brother and grandfather. For the rest of the night and well into the next day Kalas apppears to be in a state of shock and doesn't speak to her. Later, while fighting a Fadroh-like monster Savyna is on the ropes. Kalas sees this, calls to her and tries to come to her aid. He's prevented from helping but, it's the thought that counts.
* Kalas and the others relaxing at the victory banquet. From King Ladekahn and Queen Corellia's sharing thanks. To Kalas suggesting to a despondent Lyude that he should help Alfard in it's efforts to rebuild by becoming it's new leader, telling the nervous young man he's more than qualified at this point. To Savyna taking up cooking thanks to encouragement from him and Mayfee.

** During the TrueFinalBoss, Sagi and co. are knocked out. Just when all seems lost, [[TrueCompanions Malpercio]] come in and give Sagi a RousingSpeech, giving him the confidence he needs to bring down [[EldritchAbomination Verus-Wiseman]].

* The last scene of the game, [[spoiler:when everyone gets together to say goodbye to the Spirit. The characters you've gotten to know give you [[ThePlayerIsTheMostImportantResource their heartfelt thanks]] for getting them through it all. There's something oddly satisfying about it.]]

''Origins''

** Guillo comforting Milly [[spoiler:after Baelheit's death]] in his [[DeadpanSnarker own special way]].
** [[spoiler:If you spared them, the TerribleTrio from earlier pull one BigDamnHeroes after another just to get Sagi and Milly out of the falling Tarazed. Especially so when you hear that Heughes and Nasca are both prepared to sacrifice themselves to save Sagi.]]

* How about the Heart-to-Heart? [[spoiler:When you tell Sagi you want to be part of him, he sounds so genuinely happy you can't help but feel for him.]] A lot of it stems from the excellent writing, which really makes Sagi into a lovable character.

** The fact that he's practically in tears as they tell him it's okay really sells it in my opinion.

* I know most people think of it as a bad case of {{Narm}}. But I was always moved by [[spoiler:Kalas's apology after he wakes up after his HeelFaceTurn.

* While on the way to Mira, Kalas asks his Guardian Spirit (you) if you trust Lyude. If you answers yes Lyude smiles and thanks you. It's just a small thing, but still, a very heartwarming moment.

* When little Mayfee's prayers to her "guardian angel" to make the water wheel work are apparently answered and she races off to tell her grandmother. Kalas smiles as he tells the boy who repaired the wheel to come out of hiding.

** [[spoiler:Milly falling off Tarazed, and Sagi diving into the sky after her. Not to save her, but just to be with her one last time...]]

* Heughe's letter to his brother Nasca. Considering that by the time you accidentally get it, they've both wiped the floor with your party, it does a good job of humanizing Heughes. Sagi even forwards it to Nasca, despite the fact that Nasca literally shot Sagi in the face with missiles earlier in the game!

* The last scene of the game, [[spoiler:when everyone gets together to say goodbye to the Spirit. After making it to the end of the game, it feels really good to have everyone give you genuine appreciation for getting them through it all. Because really, how many games actually ''thank'' you for all your hard work?]]

* Kalas and Xelha reuniting at the end is just golden.
