"Honorary Knight!"[]
Quest DescriptionIn accordance with your growing fame as the Honorary Knight, one of your junior Knights of Favonius would like to receive your guidance...
- (Approach Noelle)
- ???: Is that... the Honorary Knight? Hello!
- Paimon: Huh? Seems like someone's calling out to you, (TravelerTraveler)! Let's go check it out!
- (Walk up to Noelle)
- ???: I finally get to meet you, Honorary Knight.
- Noelle: I'm Noelle, a maid of the Knights of Favonius.
The Knights of Favonius have... maids?- Is this... "maid-knight" attire?
- Noelle: Ah — apologies... I've yet to officially join the Knights.
- Noelle: As a maid, and in order to be worthy of this armor, I'm currently undergoing the Knights of Favonius Chivalric Training.
"Chivalric Training"?- Noelle: Yes... I haven't passed the selection trials yet, but I've been asking senior knights for advice on how to become a true Knight of Favonius.
- Noelle: ...I asked Amber how to make a Baron Bunny, and Kaeya's been keeping me busy with various small tasks...
- Noelle: I even asked the Spark Knight to pass on her experiences, although... Master Jean grounded us shortly after...
- You seem to be... working hard...
- Noelle: Actually... I have always wanted to receive guidance from the Honorary Knight.
- Noelle: I—I was worried that it might be too... presumptuous to ask...
- Noelle: I've seen you on the streets of Mondstadt occasionally, but I've always been too busy to disturb you...
- Noelle: I just finished today's cleaning for the Knights and was about to start my training when I saw you!
- Noelle: I... If it's not too much trouble... could I ask you for some guidance on my Chivalric Training?
- You know... it's okay not to be a knight.
- (Go to Branch 1)
- Of course, where do you want to start?
- (Go to Branch 2)
Branch 1[]
- You know... it's okay not to be a knight.
- Noelle: So as a senior knight... this is your suggestion?
- Noelle: But... as a maid, I'm only authorized to deal with smaller tasks.
- Noelle: The Knights of Favonius is the strongest shield that Mondstadt has. How can I defend the people if I'm only ever dealing with minor matters!
- Noelle: That's why I've always wanted to become a real knight of Favonius, to have the power to help more people!
- A maid is a respectable position too, I'd like to become one.
- Noelle: Huh? Y—You're joking hehehe... right?
- No matter how small the tasks, they still need someone to take care of them. I do small tasks all the time.
- Noelle: Really? Even the Honorary Knight?
- I'm constantly running errands.
- Noelle: ...I thought the Honorary Knight would only ever be busy with powerful enemies like Stormterror...
- The strength to fight powerful enemies only comes with the experience gained during the completion of smaller tasks.
- Besides, you don't exactly mind such tasks, right?
- Noelle: Well... that is true...
- Noelle: Come to think of it, whenever I see you in Mondstadt, you do always seem to be in a hurry...
- Noelle: And the fact is... you're hurrying to help others...
- Go back to Mondstadt and see if there are people who need help.
- Think of every small task as a kind of training.
- Noelle: Oh... Okay, back to Mondstadt it is! Time for today's training to officially begin!
All of Life Is Training[]
Quest DescriptionNoelle, who aims to become a Knight of Favonius, has shared her troubles with you and hopes that you'll be able to help her with her chivalric training. At your suggestion, Noelle decides to start small...
- (Follow Noelle and approach the bridge)
- Noelle: Your point of view on these matters has truly been eye-opening for me, I have a lot to learn!
- Noelle: Just like you said, from now on, I'm going to treat helping people with smaller tasks as a part of my training!
- Noelle: ...Just thinking about it makes me feel more motivated than ever!
- Paimon: Wow... Noelle's motivated alright!
- Paimon: She's got that "gimme a commission before I take 'em all" vibe!
- ???: Someone—! Anyone—!
- Noelle: Who's that? I—I need to help!
- Paimon: Noelle! Whoa... she's fast... Let's catch up with her!
- (Approach Noelle)
- Noelle: ...There, there, take your time, try and take a deep breath first...
- ???: *catches breath* ...And finally... I was saved...
- Noelle: Well my name's Noelle. Don't worry sir, everything's all right. I'll be protecting you from now on.
- Noelle: So... where are you from? I don't think we've met in Mondstadt before.
- ???: Thanks... I... I'm not from Mondstadt.
- Alois: My name is Alois. I'm a traveling merchant.
- Alois: I was on my way to Mondstadt to acquire some of the reputed local wines... so I could take them back to Liyue... Little did I know...
- ...Mm-hmm...?
- Alois: Uh... Little did I know I'd run into savage monsters on the way! I mean... savage! They were twice my height!
- Alois: I was so scared I ran all the way here, until I just couldn't run anymore... Thank goodness I found you and this... uh... maid.
- Noelle: It's okay, Mr. Alois. We're not far from Mondstadt.
- Noelle: Although I'm just an ordinary maid, the small task of escorting a visitor to the city is certainly within my power.
- Alois: Uh, escort me to Mondstadt? Perfect! Let's go...
- Noelle: But, wait a moment... as a traveling merchant, you must have some luggage and some goods?
- Noelle: Don't worry. No matter the quantity, I'll carry them for you!
- Alois: Luggage? Goods? Uhh...
- Alois: Yes! I remember now. The savage monsters I encountered? That's when I lost them!
- I can get them back for you.
- Alois: No, no... no need! These monsters are ferocious! Three times my height!
- Noelle: Oh, rest easy — (TravelerTraveler) is Mondstadt's Honorary Knight. No monster is too ferocious for (himhim/
herher). - Alois: H—Honorary Knight? Then you're a member of the Knights of Favonius?
- Where did you see those monsters?
- Alois: I, uhh... I—I can't remember exactly. I was too busy running.
- Alois: —Probably near that crossing in front of us... b—but I can't be sure... *sigh* Never mind...
- Back soon.
- Alois: Wait... w—wait a minute! My chest! Argh! A sudden pain in my chest! It must be all that running. Let's look for those things a little bit later...
- (He lowers himself to the ground)
- Noelle: Oh! Chest pain? ...Here, I've got you. Hold my arms and lie down slowly.
- Noelle: Now do your best to relax. I will examine you.
- Alois: Uhh... p—perhaps I... maybe you...
- Noelle: I'm sorry, I must stay here to watch over our visitor, (TravelerTraveler). It looks like you'll need to handle the monsters. Oh — and please be careful!
- (Talk to Alois and Noelle)
- Alois: No, no, it's okay... I'll be fine with a bit of rest, don't worry about me...
- Noelle: Sorry! If you really don't want to be examined, I still need to take care of you!
- (Approach the crossing)
- Paimon: Strange... No trace of any large monsters here...
- (Approach the fallen carriage)
- Paimon: Woah, here they come!
- (Defeat the slimes)
- Paimon: Eh? It's just a few ordinary slimes!
- Paimon: Paimon didn't see any goods on the road. Is this the right place?
- Paimon: Let's head back to Noelle.
- (Talk to Noelle)
- Noelle: Back so soon... A true senior knight!
- Noelle: Did you see Mr. Alois's luggage on the way?
- Not a trace.
- Alois: Uh, perhaps the monsters ate it?
- Only saw a few monsters...
- Alois: So there were monsters...
- Alois: Didn't I tell you! It's dangerous!
- Noelle: Oh, you're not hurt, are you, (TravelerTraveler)?
- They were only a few slimes.
- They weren't exactly twice your height.
- Alois: Uh... um... w—what I meant was...
- Alois: When they jumped, they were thrice — ahem — twice as tall as me!
- Twice or thrice...?
- Alois: ...W—Why are you looking at me like that? Even if they were just slimes, I couldn't have fought them off!
- Noelle: *sigh* What can we do? If even the Honorary Knight can't find them...
- Alois: Heh... I'm just a traveling merchant, you never know what's gonna happen out here...
- Alois: Oh well, looks like Mondstadt was never meant to be, perhaps next time...
- Noelle: I'm very sorry... In these circumstances, I must ask you to register the quantity and nature of your lost property with the Knights of Favonius.
- Noelle: I know that the Knights will do their best to help you recover your goods!
- Alois: Ah!?
- Alois: No, no, no! I—I couldn't possibly trouble the Knights of Favonius. This matter... it really is beneath them.
- Noelle: On the contrary, it's the duty of the Knights to look after any visitors traveling to and from Mondstadt.
- Noelle: As a maid, I must do my best in receiving and escorting such visitors.
- Noelle: But then... perhaps there's something keeping you from going to the Knights?
- Alois: Heh... No! Absolutely nothing!
- Noelle, can we talk for a moment?
- (Aside)
- Noelle: Mm? Everything okay?
- This fellow seems suspicious to me.
- Noelle: Well... actually, I noticed that too.
- Noelle: But since we don't have any evidence of wrongdoing, he deserves the benefit of the doubt.
- Noelle: This gentleman was seeking help at the gates of Mondstadt, which makes him a guest of the city.
- Noelle: Therefore, I must carry out my maidly duties.
- You have a point...
- Noelle: Mm-hmm, thank you for understanding!
- Alois: Hey... what are you discussing? So what's next?
- Noelle: Oh... Sorry to keep you waiting!
- Noelle: We've talked it over, and we've decided to escort you back to Mondstadt!
- (Proceed to The Art of Hospitality)
Branch 2[]
- Of course, where do you want to start?
- Noelle: I—I'd like to get your opinion on something, as a senior knight!
- Noelle: I've been keeping up with my maidly duties and knightly exercises.
- Noelle: But training progress has been a little slow...
- Maidly duties?
- Noelle: Uh... it's really all just cleaning and tidying...
- Noelle: Roughly every other day, I do a major clean-up for the Knights of Favonius.
- Noelle: Under the beds, the windowsills... nothing can be left out. The smallest corners are the most likely to gather dust.
- Noelle: There are also all kinds of smaller domestic tasks, like preparing Captain Kaeya's eye patch, and helping Ms. Lisa keep her bookshelves in order.
- Knightly exercises?
- Noelle: Y'know, just basic strength and endurance training...
- Noelle: 100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups, 100 squats...
- Noelle: And running two laps around Mondstadt as a morning routine.
- Noelle: I'm actually incredibly busy every day. It's just that... I always feel like something's missing.
- What you lack is strength!
- (Go to Branch 3)
- What you lack is rest.
- (Go to Branch 4)
Branch 3[]
- What you lack is strength!
- Noelle: S—Strength...?
- Noelle: But, I think I'm pretty strong...
- Noelle: After he got drunk, I carried Mr. Bruce back to the Knights of Favonius Headquarters myself...
- Noelle: I also carried the library's new bookshelves over from Springvale...
- Noelle: Even Mr. Huffman said I'm strong.
- Can you show me?
- Noelle: Ah! Of course!
- Noelle: However, even though it's only training... I can't raise my sword against the Honorary Knight.
- Noelle: I've got it! Let's go to the training ground at the Knights of Favonius Headquarters. There should be some training dummies there.
- (Proceed to Noelle's Strength)
Branch 4[]
- What you lack is rest.
- Noelle: Rest? But... *sigh* ...I've still got so much work to do.
- Noelle: Besides... I'm still not skilled enough. Any free time that I get should be spent training.
- Noelle: If I want to become a real knight soon, I have to continue to put in more effort than the others.
- A true knight also needs sufficient rest.
- Noelle: But... time is precious... if I rest...
- Noelle: I'll feel guilty...
- Stopping for occasional rest is all part of ensuring that you can train to your maximum ability.
- If you're too busy, you won't have time to reflect on your progress and goals.
- Noelle: Ohh... I really hadn't thought about that...
- Noelle: Resting... for the sake of training...
- Noelle: Ohhhh... so that's why Ms. Lisa always has afternoon tea in the library... I get it now!
- In Lisa's case, I'm afraid it's probably just resting for the sake of resting...
- Noelle: Huh... Now that you... mention it...
- Never mind. Speaking of tea, let's have some!
- And speaking of tea, let's have some!
- Noelle: Oh! O—Okay!
- (Proceed to Fleeting Leisure)
Trivia[]
- Noelle's "knightly exercises" are a reference to One-Punch Man's workout routine.
