Alphinaud: Remembrance will yield no remedy. If our world is to heal, we must put the horrors of the Calamity behind us.
Alisaie: Our grandfather would never entrust the fate of the realm to despots who rewrite history to their convenience!

Very interesting bit of early characterization of the twins that i found redoing the remembrance quest. Where Alisaie is upset and even offended at how all the city state leaders gloss over the sacrifices made, Alphinaud seems very ready to just let it go. I think this also speaks to how he see the Warrior of Light later on, before he gets humbled -- he wants to push, to progress, to disregard what doesn't help in the most practical sense, whereas Alisaie is more emotional and wants to connect with the legacy of her grandfather and the people lost.
It's a small set of lines but idk i thought it was really interesting, seeing the pragmatic vs the passionate.
