Estelle muses that Joshua has calmed down in the recent days and rushes off to find something to eat. Joshua catches up with Nial and Dorothy before he notices Estelle and Josette have gotten into a fight near the buffet table. Joshua uses this time to wander around thanking everyone for their support. Free control of Joshua is given during this point.

After Joshua has spoken to everyone of note, There is a scene on the stairs with Dorothy and Nial. Princess Klaudia approaches Joshua and they go to the terrace edge where Klaudia confesses her attraction to him, despite acknowledging his bond with Estelle. Joshua states that he wants to go on a journey of his own, but can't think of a way to express his feelings to Estelle. Klaudia states he will find a way. Estelle then arrives, having taken Josette's Goggles as 'spoils of war'. Klaudia excuses herself while Joshua explains his thoughts to Estelle.

Trivia

 * Josette does not wear goggles on her person in any subsequent artwork in later games, suggesting Estelle really did keep them as a trophy and never returned them.
