1 126 None of us here wish for this war[XENO:n ] to continue.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]What goes around, comes around.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]If you hurt someone, it will[XENO:n ] come back to haunt you.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
2 126 I can only hope this depressing[XENO:n ] war ends soon...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]We are still waiting for the village[XENO:n ] chief to find a way to end it.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
3 126 The Mechon roaming outside the[XENO:n ] village are not from around here.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]They fell down here from the[XENO:n ] sword high above our village.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]In most cases, the fall is enough[XENO:n ] to render them non-functional.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But a few manage to survive and[XENO:n ] threaten our home.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
4 126 The Mechon were created by Egil,[XENO:n ] one of our own people.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]And yet now, they are a terrible[XENO:n ] threat even to us.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]As for how Egil himself feels about[XENO:n ] this, I am afraid I have no idea.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
5 126 [XENO:trust trust= p:5:a:315:2 ]Lately, Kazat seems frustrated[XENO:n ] about something. It's plain to see.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]He's never been able to conceal[XENO:n ] his emotions.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
6 126 I think he must be worrying about[XENO:n ] that gun he made recently.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It's written all over his face.[XENO:n ] Makes him a bit hard to approach.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
7 126 [XENO:trust trust= p:5:a:315:3 ]Kazat seems really lively lately.[XENO:n ] It's plain to see.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]He's never been able to conceal[XENO:n ] his emotions.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
8 126 I think he finally has a gun[XENO:n ] he can use.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]He seems so happy. It's written[XENO:n ] all over his face.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
9 126 Thank you all.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]The scheduled inspection was[XENO:n ] completed without any error.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]These inspections come around[XENO:n ] very quickly.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It's only 10 years until[XENO:n ] the next one.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
10 126 It would be better if they were[XENO:n ] scheduled for every 100 years.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I have told the village chief many[XENO:n ] times, but to no avail.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]He always replies with,[XENO:n ] 'Ho-ho-ho-ho-ho'![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Perhaps he is poking fun at me![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
11 126 My friend is being distant lately.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]As a fellow Machina, she's feeling[XENO:n ] guilty about Egil's war on Bionis.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]And she was already eaten up by[XENO:n ] worry over her son's condition...![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
12 126 If only there were a way for me to[XENO:n ] relieve her anguish...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But for now, all I can do is lend[XENO:n ] a friendly ear.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
13 126 I feel like I'm bashing my head[XENO:n ] against a steel wall...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Why? Because I'm constantly[XENO:n ] arguing with my husband.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I feel like the whole world is[XENO:n ] working against me recently...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
14 126 The reason we're fighting is[XENO:n ] because of our keepsake.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It broke, you see.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]We're both to blame really.[XENO:n ] We weren't careful enough with it.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But he keeps saying that I'm to[XENO:n ] blame for it breaking.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Well, how could I not get angry[XENO:n ] with him accusing me like that?![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]And I can hardly apologise while[XENO:n ] he's being so stubborn![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]So...you can see why I'm feeling[XENO:n ] down at the moment.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
15 126 I'm starting to think my daughter[XENO:n ] is avoiding me.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]She used to always come and give[XENO:n ] me a kiss before going to sleep.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Now she just gets into the[XENO:n ] recharging hanger without a word![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
16 126 It's only natural for a child to stop[XENO:n ] depending on a parent.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But I'm worried it's because I'm[XENO:n ] fighting with her father...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
17 126 [XENO:trust trust= p:5:a:311:3 ]Oh, Vronik?[XENO:n ] She's one of my best friends.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]We were born at the same moment[XENO:n ] so she almost feels like family.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
18 126 I worry about her a lot lately.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Have you seen how out of sorts[XENO:n ] she looks these days?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I want to help, but I can't work up[XENO:n ] the courage to ask her about it.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I keep thinking, if she wanted my[XENO:n ] help, she'd ask for it... You know?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
19 126 You're the ones who Mixik asked[XENO:n ] for help fixing our keepsake, yes?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Well, she fixed more than just the[XENO:n ] keepsake.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]My husband and I have made up[XENO:n ] and my family's back together.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I can't thank you people enough.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
20 126 My daughter gave me the biggest[XENO:n ] telling off![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]She said it was as much my fault[XENO:n ] as my husband's.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It brings a smile to my face when[XENO:n ] I think how much she's grown.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]You could even say she's more[XENO:n ] grown up than my husband or I.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
21 126 I am so grateful to Mixik and you[XENO:n ] for everything you've done for us.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]We owe you a debt of gratitude.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]She's sort of shy when it comes to[XENO:n ] saying thank you properly.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But on all our behalves, thank you.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]You know, when we talk of you,[XENO:n ] her face lights up with a big smile![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
22 126 Would you hang out with my[XENO:n ] daughter for me?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I don't mind if it's only while[XENO:n ] you're here in the village.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]She'd really love it if you would![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
23 126 Have you heard?[XENO:n ] My husband is making a weapon.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I know we need a way to protect[XENO:n ] our precious village...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But I worry that something might[XENO:n ] happen to him...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
24 126 We just made up after all that[XENO:n ] fighting and now this![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I have to worry about him hurting[XENO:n ] himself with a dangerous weapon![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I guess I should leave him to his[XENO:n ] own devices...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But he should learn to think about[XENO:n ] my feelings before being the hero.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
25 126 Mum and Dad are always fighting.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]They used to do everything[XENO:n ] together, but not now.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Now you'd be lucky to see[XENO:n ] them in the same room![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
26 126 Their precious keepsake broke[XENO:n ] and now they won't stop fighting.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I really want to get it fixed.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Then they'll make up and we can[XENO:n ] be a family again.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
27 126 [XENO:trust trust= p:5:a:312:5 ]My mum and dad stopped fighting![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Thanks for your help.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]They'd still be fighting if it hadn't[XENO:n ] been for you guys helping me.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
28 126 I'm in a really good mood.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]My mum and dad are sooo lovey[XENO:n ] dovey at the moment.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Normally, I'd be like 'yuck' and[XENO:n ] 'go get a hanger'![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But I'm just happy to see them[XENO:n ] getting on with each other again.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]How are you guys doing?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
29 126 [XENO:trust trust= p:5:a:314:5 ]I had a go at my dad. I told him[XENO:n ] he should never make mum cry.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Then I went and told my mum off;[XENO:n ] told her to be nice to dad![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
30 126 Tonight we're all going to sleep[XENO:n ] in dad's recharging hanger.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Tomorrow we'll all sleep in[XENO:n ] mum's hanger.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I hope we can always sleep as[XENO:n ] a family from now on.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
31 126 So you figured out what was[XENO:n ] making that horrible noise?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Thank you, thank you![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I got the heebie-jeebies even[XENO:n ] going near that beach![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]That noise really gave[XENO:n ] me the creeps![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
32 126 There's nothing worse than creepy[XENO:n ] noises you've never heard before.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I am so relieved it's gone now.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I can finally go to the beach and[XENO:n ] not have to be creeped out!'[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
33 126 You guys know the girl who picks[XENO:n ] up junk around here?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]We often bump into each other[XENO:n ] since our jobs are sort of similar.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]She's a really good kid.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Never complains, never tires,[XENO:n ] never takes a break. Wow.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
34 126 Apparently, she and her sister are[XENO:n ] in the repairing business.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]She finds the junk, and her sister[XENO:n ] fixes it up.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]They're like a double-act![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I guess that's how they make[XENO:n ] a living for themselves.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
35 126 [XENO:trust trust= p:5:a:304:3 ]Eleqa is so nice.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]No one tells her to pick the scrap[XENO:n ] up. She does it on her own.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I really admire her.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
36 126 If I was a guy, I'd be lining up to[XENO:n ] ask her out on a date.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But I'm guessing there isn't a guy[XENO:n ] in the village that suits Eleqa.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
37 126 You're the people who fought off[XENO:n ] all the monsters in the area, right?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Don't be shy. I know it's you![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It's so much safer to leave the[XENO:n ] village than it used to be.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ][XENO:trust trust= p:5:a:304:4 ]I'm sure Eleqa appreciates it too.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]She ventures much further out[XENO:n ] than the rest of us.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
38 126 You're so tough![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I saw you pummel a Mechon the[XENO:n ] other day.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It didn't stand a chance![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
39 126 I remember that I fell from the[XENO:n ] sword...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]When I woke up, I was here.[XENO:n ] I guess a Machina helped me out.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
40 126 I must have been incredibly lucky[XENO:n ] to survive a fall like that.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But...I guess some of the people[XENO:n ] I was with didn't make it...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I wish they had been as lucky as[XENO:n ] I was...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
41 126 They say the Machina that saved[XENO:n ] me saves people for a living.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Can you believe it?[XENO:n ] He saves people's lives for a job![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I owe him my life.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
42 126 I'm not the only Homs in the[XENO:n ] village.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]The same Machina that saved me[XENO:n ] saved others as well.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
43 126 [XENO:trust trust= p:5:a:308:4 ]The Machina that rescued me is[XENO:n ] called Rakzet, or so I heard.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]The guy himself never even[XENO:n ] told me his name. Crazy, huh?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But that's a name I will never[XENO:n ] forget, as long as I live.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
44 126 I could thank Rakzet a million[XENO:n ] times but it'll never be enough.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]He's the reason I'm alive today[XENO:n ] and I will never forget that.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
45 126 [XENO:trust trust= p:5:a:321:3 ]Ever since I arrived in the village,[XENO:n ] everyone has helped me so much.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Take Xekit for one.[XENO:n ] She's done so much for me.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]She has looked after me from the[XENO:n ] day I was brought here.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
46 126 [XENO:trust trust= p:5:a:357:4 ]The other day I met another Homs[XENO:n ] just outside the village.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Looks like we weren't the only[XENO:n ] ones who survived![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]His name is Theo and he was a[XENO:n ] member of Recon Squad.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I'd never met him, but I'd heard all[XENO:n ] sorts of good things about him.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
47 126 This sword you found for me... It's[XENO:n ] not the greatest weapon, I admit.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But it holds real sentimental value[XENO:n ] for me.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It's the sword on which I made a[XENO:n ] promise with my best friend.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
48 126 The promise we made still stands.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I will protect Natalia no matter[XENO:n ] what happens.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]If I failed to do that, I know he'd[XENO:n ] never let me forget it![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
49 126 I bet you're surprised to find a[XENO:n ] Homs in a Machina village, right?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But it's not actually that unusual.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]There are other Homs who live[XENO:n ] here as well as me.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]And I see a few Homs in your[XENO:n ] party, so now there's even more![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
50 126 You know, I don't feel like going[XENO:n ] back to the colony any time soon.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]The world is in upheaval, and the[XENO:n ] man I fought beside is still here.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
51 126 Everyone gave me a warm[XENO:n ] welcome here when I arrived.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Linada and the village chief[XENO:n ] especially.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I don't know any other place that[XENO:n ] would treat me as well as here.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It doesn't matter where you come[XENO:n ] from, the villagers accept you.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
52 126 Recently, I've started thinking[XENO:n ] I might stay here permanently.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It's exciting, living with Machina.[XENO:n ] They see everything so differently.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
53 126 [XENO:trust trust= p:5:a:316:3 ]I'm the same as Karlos.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]We're both survivors of the Battle[XENO:n ] of Sword Valley.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It's really helped that he's here[XENO:n ] with me.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But...it's been a while since we[XENO:n ] sat down and just talked.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
54 126 At the Battle of Sword Valley,[XENO:n ] Karlos and I fought together.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But there was one more person[XENO:n ] with us. Karlos' best friend...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Together, the three of us fought[XENO:n ] as a unit. We were the best![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But the other man...he...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]He sacrificed his life to save me.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I think that's why Karlos can't[XENO:n ] bear to talk to me.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Maybe the memories of that day[XENO:n ] still haunt him...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
55 126 It's all because of Rakzet that[XENO:n ] I can stand here before you today.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]If I was a little younger, I'd most[XENO:n ] likely have fallen for him.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]He really is an incredible person.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
56 126 It's just like Rakzet to say he[XENO:n ] wants to be Homs.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Machina get weak when they get[XENO:n ] wet, you see.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]So he has trouble saving people[XENO:n ] who are drowning or wet.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It won't stop him though. He thinks[XENO:n ] of others first, himself second.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
57 126 [XENO:trust trust= p:5:a:316:5 ]I never knew the two of them[XENO:n ] made a promise like that...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]What were they thinking?![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Who promises to risk their life to[XENO:n ] protect worthless little me?![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]And then he actually died[XENO:n ] saving me...![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Karlos is desperate to do the[XENO:n ] same. I can see it in his eyes.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I guess a promise between friends[XENO:n ] blinds a guy to what matters.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Like a girl's feelings...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I think I should talk to him.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]We need to sort things out[XENO:n ] between us...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
58 126 It's the best feeling in the world[XENO:n ] when someone cares for you.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But deep down, I still want him to[XENO:n ] care about himself just as much.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]If I was to lose Karlos as well...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I'll try and talk to him again.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
59 126 You know there is a Homs girl[XENO:n ] who stands facing Junks?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]She was saved with the male[XENO:n ] Homs.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
60 126 Maybe I just don't understand[XENO:n ] these Homs quite yet...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]There's these two Homs, a man[XENO:n ] and a woman.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I think they'd make a great couple.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But I think there's something going[XENO:n ] on that's stopping them...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
61 126 Just as I thought.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]There's something not quite right[XENO:n ] between those two Homs.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But there's still much to rejoice at.[XENO:n ] I didn't think they'd make it here.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]They've both accustomed[XENO:n ] themselves to the village well.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
62 126 Natalia has started to smile.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Maybe she has something to smile[XENO:n ] about...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]She deserves a bit of good luck.[XENO:n ] Life is short, well, for her at least.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]You can't stand around moping[XENO:n ] all your life![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
63 126 Have you been to Digit 5 Beach?[XENO:n ] The scene at dusk is beautiful![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I don't recommend swimming there[XENO:n ] from Digit 1 Crevasse's beach.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]That's not the best route.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
64 126 The monsters around these parts[XENO:n ] have very strong buffs.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]You can't just overpower them like[XENO:n ] normal enemies.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Take heed, strangers.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
65 126 Egil is no longer willing to listen[XENO:n ] to what anyone else has to say.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]We are all sad with pity for him.[XENO:n ] When will this war end...?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
66 126 Vanea has a sturdy head on[XENO:n ] those shoulders of hers.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But I still worry for her.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Egil and her were inseparable.[XENO:n ] She is taking this very hard.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
67 126 The reawakening of the Bionis is[XENO:n ] upon us.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I knew this day would come.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But not like this...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
68 126 It's that time again. The scheduled[XENO:n ] inspection is coming up.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]We do it once every 10 years.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Checks are done on the Ether[XENO:n ] Exhaust System, simple as that.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I wonder who is in charge this[XENO:n ] time...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Xekit...? I think...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
69 126 Ooh! I wanted to ask you[XENO:n ] about something.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Did you know, this village sits in[XENO:n ] the Mechonis' palm?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Technically speaking, the palm of[XENO:n ] the hand of its chopped off arm.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
70 126 There were Mechon in the Ether[XENO:n ] Exhaust System?![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]That's not good![XENO:n ] We need to tell somebody![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]What? You destroyed them?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Maybe it was the ether that[XENO:n ] attracted them to the system...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Well at least no one was hurt.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
71 126 I'm glad Xekit didn't go out alone[XENO:n ] or she would have been done for![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]On her behalf, I thank you.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
72 126 I have this friend called Orkatix.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]His growth algorithm is[XENO:n ] malfunctioning.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]That's why he's growing at a much[XENO:n ] slower rate than other children.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
73 126 Even Linada is having difficulty[XENO:n ] providing maintenance to him.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But I think Orkatix has a plan...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
74 126 It looks like Orkatix got his[XENO:n ] problem fixed.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I heard you helped him out.[XENO:n ] Thanks for that![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
75 126 Orkatix's mum was really happy[XENO:n ] you helped.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]You guys have really brought back[XENO:n ] the smiles to the village.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
76 126 This door is locked shut.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It's to stop anything from messing[XENO:n ] with the Ether Exhaust System.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It emits highly-concentrated[XENO:n ] ether, which is dangerous.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It's my job to make sure nothing[XENO:n ] gets in there.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
77 126 Don't tell anyone I said this, but[XENO:n ] this door isn't the only way in.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]You can get to the Ether Exhaust[XENO:n ] System from Digit 1 Crevasse.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Don't tell anyone, OK?![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
78 126 Eleqa told me it was OK to let[XENO:n ] you through the door but...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]There are Mechon running around[XENO:n ] and ether fumes everywhere.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Don't let your guard down[XENO:n ] and watch your back![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
79 126 You want to know a secret?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]This isn't the only way of getting[XENO:n ] to the other side of this wall.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It's a pretty helpful shortcut, but[XENO:n ] it's not the only route.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
80 126 You can buy many useful weapons[XENO:n ] against the Mechon right here.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But I guess it doesn't mean much[XENO:n ] when you guys have the Monado.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]You can use the Enchant move to[XENO:n ] fight with any Mechon you face.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
81 126 But I can vouch for the weapons[XENO:n ] with Machina in the name.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]They are as stable as they come.[XENO:n ] But that's about it.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Now, what was I saying...?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
82 126 Do you guys ever go back to[XENO:n ] your home on Bionis?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I see you around here a lot so I[XENO:n ] wondered whether you did...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I guess the experience has made[XENO:n ] you stronger.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Maybe you're strong enough to[XENO:n ] beat enemies you couldn't before![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
83 126 Hey, maybe you can tell me.[XENO:n ] What's that Colony 9 like?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I'd love to go and see what it's[XENO:n ] like some time.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Maybe we'll see each other there[XENO:n ] some day![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
84 126 Our village is home to many strays[XENO:n ] who were attacked by the Mechon.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Just like you, you might say.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I want to help any who need[XENO:n ] assistance.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It is the least I can do considering[XENO:n ] the trouble Egil has caused.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
85 126 'Egil has lost it'.[XENO:n ] That's what people are saying.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Can it be true?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]In some way, I believe Egil thinks[XENO:n ] he is doing the right thing.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Underneath it all, Egil is kind.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
86 126 For every single Art you use, there[XENO:n ] exists an Advanced Arts Manual.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]They say you can get manuals[XENO:n ] from only the strongest enemies.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]The Homs that ended up in our[XENO:n ] village told me so.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
87 126 You are our hope. Not just for Homs,[XENO:n ] but for every living thing.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I hope that you can achieve what[XENO:n ] you set out to do.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Bring this vicious cycle to[XENO:n ] an end, for all of us.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
88 126 I...can sense it.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]An entity crying in pain and[XENO:n ] sadness...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Some...one crushed by their[XENO:n ] sorrow.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I...can feel it. So sad...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
89 126 Sadness replaced his kindness.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Then hatred turned to malice.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]The kind old Egil is all but gone.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
90 126 But nothing can be born of hatred.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Are these two hands meant to kill[XENO:n ] our brothers and sisters?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]No. They are made to create [XENO:n ] life, not destroy it.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
91 126 In his last moments, Egil tried to[XENO:n ] seize something.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]You of all must understand what[XENO:n ] it is he wanted.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But whatever that was, don't let[XENO:n ] him down even in death.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Make sure his dying wish becomes[XENO:n ] a reality for us all.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
92 126 Was it fate?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]If it was, then fate has a cruel[XENO:n ] sense of humour.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
93 126 Junks is the symbol of those who[XENO:n ] fled the capital and came here.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]We think it suits a bunch of people[XENO:n ] who live surrounded by junk.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
94 126 The village chief is always here.[XENO:n ] I find him a bit unsettling.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I think it's his huge body. You can[XENO:n ] tell he never leaves Junks.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
95 126 You want to get inside[XENO:n ] the Mechonis, right?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]No worries! We'll take you right[XENO:n ] to the entrance.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
96 126 Alone, none of us can even come[XENO:n ] close to beating Zanza.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But we're not alone, are we?[XENO:n ] We're all working together.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]And that's a power Zanza[XENO:n ] doesn't have.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
97 126 We used this ship when we ran[XENO:n ] away from the capital.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It had a different name at the[XENO:n ] time, but now we all call it Junks.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
98 126 How can they make an old Machina[XENO:n ] like me work on Junks?![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]We need some new blood in the[XENO:n ] village or I'm going on strike![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Fine! I'll keep helping out if it'd[XENO:n ] make you happy.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
99 126 Miqol never changes, you know.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I never know what's going on in[XENO:n ] that old brain of his.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But, I guess he's trustworthy[XENO:n ] enough.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]And he hasn't let us down...yet.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
100 126 I have been tasked with[XENO:n ] maintaining Junks.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It's a seriously stressful job![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Why? Just ask the village chief.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
101 126 I don't have any qualifications in[XENO:n ] servicing ships or anything.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But I still have to do it.[XENO:n ] It's sort of a village oath.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]We must help each other out no[XENO:n ] matter the circumstances.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
102 126 So Junks will take flight[XENO:n ] again at last.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]No wonder it needed[XENO:n ] maintenance![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Trust the chief to have[XENO:n ] a good reason.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
103 126 If you're going to the Bionis'[XENO:n ] Interior, please use Junks.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Junks can fly into the hole Egil[XENO:n ] opened up in the Bionis' body.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
104 126 We can only do so much without[XENO:n ] the help of others.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Even gods need their followers.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]We'll be right there supporting you[XENO:n ] in spirit and body.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Let's make a better future for[XENO:n ] everyone in this world.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
105 126 If you are going to Colony 6,[XENO:n ] why not use Junks?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]The village chief is ready to go[XENO:n ] at the drop of a Homs hat.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
106 126 [XENO:trust trust= p:5:a:320:3 ]When my mum and dad fight,[XENO:n ] Xekit lets me hang with her.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]When I'm feeling down, I go talk[XENO:n ] to her and she just listens to me.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Xekit is sooo cool. She's like my[XENO:n ] idol and friend all in one.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I wish I could be more like her.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
107 126 [XENO:trust trust= p:5:a:317:3 ]Oh, you've been talking to Eiz?[XENO:n ] You really don't discriminate, huh?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But he's actually pretty amazing.[XENO:n ] He has this incredible...empathy.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It's like he takes people's worries[XENO:n ] and makes them his own.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
108 126 [XENO:qst_start ]Hey. Do you have a minute?[XENO:n ] I need to talk to you.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I've got this problem, you see.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Do you know what I'm talking[XENO:n ] about?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
109 126 OK. Here's the thing.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It's my job to collect spring water[XENO:n ] from Zakt Spring.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But lately I've been hearing these[XENO:n ] weird noises around there.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It's creeping me out so badly,[XENO:n ] I'm too scared to go do my job![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
110 126 You know how that silver Mechon[XENO:n ] fell onto the beach recently?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It sounds like the creepy noise[XENO:n ] is coming from that.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But I'm too scared to investigate[XENO:n ] it properly and find out what it is![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]So...could you go and check[XENO:n ] what's making the noise?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
111 126 If it is the silver Face making that[XENO:n ] noise, we can't ignore it.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It's scaring the villagers so we[XENO:n ] have to go and check it out.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
112 126 What's that about a silver Face?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Well, whatever.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I just need you to find out[XENO:n ] what's making the noise.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
113 126 [XENO:qst qst=753 ]
114 126 Great - that's the spirit![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]When you know what's causing the[XENO:n ] noise, come find me.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
115 126 Oh. It's like that, is it?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I guess I was asking a lot.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It is a creepy sounding noise, so[XENO:n ] don't blame yourself.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
116 126 I can't tell you what it actually[XENO:n ] sounds like.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I'm not good at impersonating[XENO:n ] weird-sounding noises![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But it gets inside your body and[XENO:n ] send shivers down your spine.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Scary, huh?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
117 126 So that was it! Its External Sensor[XENO:n ] was reacting to a nearby Krabble![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Now I know what it is, I don't know[XENO:n ] why I made such a fuss.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But I'm glad we can go to the[XENO:n ] beach knowing we won't get eaten![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
118 126 Thank you so much.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Take this as a thank you.[XENO:n ] You've earned it.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
119 126 Come on![XENO:n ] Where is it?![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I've been looking for so long I'm[XENO:n ] almost ready to give up.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Uh... I'd tell all of you what I'm[XENO:n ] doing, but it's really embarrassing.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It's certainly not something I could[XENO:n ] talk to another guy about...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
120 126 Come on![XENO:n ] Where is that thing?![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I've been looking for so long I'm[XENO:n ] almost ready to give up.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
121 126 If you don't mind me asking,[XENO:n ] what's wrong?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
122 126 Hey! I know that voice.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Fiora?[XENO:n ] Yes! It is you.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
123 126 Is that you, Karlos?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]We all thought you'd died at the[XENO:n ] Battle of Sword Valley.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Oh, thank the stars.[XENO:n ] You're really alive![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
124 126 I fell down from the sword and the[XENO:n ] villagers helped me back here.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
125 126 Wow. That's amazing.[XENO:n ] I can't believe it![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]The colony residents are going to[XENO:n ] be overjoyed when they hear.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
126 126 Oh man! This brings it all back![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I haven't seen you since I enlisted[XENO:n ] in the Defence Force.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]And you look so...different.[XENO:n ] Wow![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
127 126 Teehee. Well, a few things have[XENO:n ] changed for me since then.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But back to you.[XENO:n ] Is something wrong?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
128 126 Oh yeah. I was so happy to see[XENO:n ] you again, I almost forgot.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I've lost something really[XENO:n ] important to me.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It's the sword on which I swore[XENO:n ] an oath to my best friend.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]We enlisted in the Defence Force[XENO:n ] at the same time.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
129 126 What happened to it?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
130 126 I think I must have lost it when[XENO:n ] I fell off the sword.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I haven't seen it since that day.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
131 126 Would you mind if I helped you?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I mean, it would mean a lot if you[XENO:n ] would let me do this for you.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I kind of feel it's fate that we met[XENO:n ] here today.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I know I can find it![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
132 126 Ha, just like when you were a kid.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Rash enough to just accept any[XENO:n ] challenge, no matter how difficult.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I can see why Vangarre wanted[XENO:n ] you for the Defence Force.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
133 126 Rash?! Come on,[XENO:n ] don't be so mean.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
134 126 Haha. I'm sorry, Fiora.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I'm just glad you haven't lost that[XENO:n ] sweet old Fiora charm.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]OK then. So you'll look for it?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
135 126 [XENO:qst qst=768 ]
136 126 Thanks![XENO:n ] You'll have it back in no time![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
137 126 You'd be doing me a massive[XENO:n ] favour, Fiora.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Start looking around at the[XENO:n ] wrist of the Fallen Arm.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I'll be looking elsewhere[XENO:n ] in the meantime.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]That OK with you?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
138 126 Hold on a minute![XENO:n ] I need some time to prepare.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
139 126 Take your time. There's no rush.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]When you're ready to leave,[XENO:n ] come give me a shout.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
140 126 I guess you haven't found[XENO:n ] my Oath Sword yet.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It couldn't have...fallen into the[XENO:n ] ocean depths, could it...?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]No, I shouldn't think like that.[XENO:n ] I mustn't give up hope.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Let's get back out there and take[XENO:n ] another look.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
141 126 Do you know if Fiora has found[XENO:n ] my Oath Sword yet?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
142 126 I know she wouldn't just give up[XENO:n ] after promising she'd look for it.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Fiora's not like that.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]OK. I better get back out there.[XENO:n ] It has to be somewhere...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
143 126 Karlos![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
144 126 That smile. You must have...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]The sword! You found it![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
145 126 Is this the sword you were[XENO:n ] looking for, Karlos?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
146 126 That's it! You've found it![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]This is the sword on which I[XENO:n ] swore an oath to my friend![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Where did you find it?![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
147 126 It was embedded in the Power[XENO:n ] Pipe Ruins.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It's tougher than it looks.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
148 126 No, it's a crummy sword all right.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It was a massive stroke of luck[XENO:n ] that it didn't shatter on impact.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
149 126 I told you so![XENO:n ] I knew I could find it for you.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
150 126 Haha! You were right.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]What would I have done without[XENO:n ] you to sort me out?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Even if it seemed a bit rash on[XENO:n ] your part, I'm glad you helped me.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
151 126 [XENO:trust trust= p:5:j ]But now I can uphold the oath[XENO:n ] that I made.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I promised to protect Natalia,[XENO:n ] for as long as I draw breath![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
152 126 [XENO:trust trust= p:5:j:316:5 ]But now I can uphold the oath[XENO:n ] that I made.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I promised to protect Natalia,[XENO:n ] for as long as I draw breath![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
153 126 The sword is really important[XENO:n ] to you, hey?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I am glad it worked out for you.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
154 126 Well. I guess this isn't much, but[XENO:n ] I want you to have my daggers.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]They're well made, have sturdy[XENO:n ] grips and will serve you well.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I have my Oath Sword now, so[XENO:n ] I won't be needing them any more.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It's the least I can do to say[XENO:n ] thank you for finding it.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Thank you, Fiora.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
155 126 Don't mention it, Karlos.[XENO:n ] It was my pleasure.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
156 126 [XENO:qst_start ]I don't know what to do![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]The scheduled inspection is just[XENO:n ] around the corner.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But I have a bad feeling something[XENO:n ] is going to go wrong.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
157 126 You'll listen? Oh thank you.[XENO:n ] Here's the thing...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I am in charge of inspecting the[XENO:n ] Ether Exhaust System.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But I am almost certain something[XENO:n ] will go wrong this time![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
158 126 I have a sense for these things.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I am sure something terrible is[XENO:n ] going to go wrong this year.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It comes around once every[XENO:n ] ten years.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]So I suppose I can skip it just this[XENO:n ] once... But it doesn't feel right...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
159 126 Doesn't feel right?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Sounds intriguing.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Maybe we should go and take[XENO:n ] a look for ourselves.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
160 126 I feel sure something will go wrong[XENO:n ] if I go on my own.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But if you all go together, you can[XENO:n ] probably handle anything, right?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
161 126 So, will you check on the Ether[XENO:n ] Exhaust System for me?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I'd be so grateful.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
162 126 [XENO:qst qst=769 ]
163 126 I'm so glad![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I'd just like you to check that[XENO:n ] nothing seems out of the ordinary.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]If everything seems all right, then[XENO:n ] I'll carry out the proper inspection.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
164 126 Oh. I...suppose I shouldn't have[XENO:n ] asked you in the first place.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I wouldn't believe you if you said[XENO:n ] it was just a hunch either.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I will ask the village chief if I can[XENO:n ] skip the inspection this year.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
165 126 That key... Is that the key to the[XENO:n ] Ether Exhaust System?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Rizaka gave it to you, huh?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]She was the person in charge of[XENO:n ] the inspection before me.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I was going to tell you but I guess[XENO:n ] you found her without my help.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
166 126 The Ether Exhaust System is near[XENO:n ] Digit 5 Beach.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It is a circular facility that looks[XENO:n ] like our village in miniature.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Good luck and thank you.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
167 126 Mechon were in the Ether[XENO:n ] Exhaust System?![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]If I'd gone alone as scheduled...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Thank you. Thank you so much.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I might have never made it out of[XENO:n ] there if I had not sent you ahead.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
168 126 If this is going to happen every[XENO:n ] time I go to inspect the place...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I wish it were scheduled to take[XENO:n ] place every 100 years![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Then I would only have a panic[XENO:n ] attack once every century![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
169 126 [XENO:qst_start ]Hey there. Got a second?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I need to tell you something.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It's my mum and dad.[XENO:n ] They won't stop fighting![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
170 126 I hate it when they fight, and they[XENO:n ] do it all the time![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]So if they won't stop it, I'm gonna[XENO:n ] find a way to make them stop.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But I need your help.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
171 126 OK. Here's the deal.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]They're fighting because their[XENO:n ] precious keepsake broke.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
172 126 So I figured the best way to stop[XENO:n ] them fighting is to fix it.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Fix the keepsake and everything[XENO:n ] will go back to normal.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]The thing is, I don't know what it[XENO:n ] was made of.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]So I can't get the materials I need[XENO:n ] to fix it.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
173 126 I don't want to go anywhere near[XENO:n ] my mum and dad right now![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]So you have to go talk to them[XENO:n ] about the keepsake.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
174 126 OK, OK.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]We'll go talk to them and sort it[XENO:n ] out for you.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I don't really know anything about[XENO:n ] parents arguing, but OK.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
175 126 Good. A family shouldn't argue as[XENO:n ] much as we do. It's not right.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
176 126 I agree.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Someone needs to talk to your[XENO:n ] parents about the keepsake.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
177 126 Yeah, that's right.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]So, could you talk to my[XENO:n ] mum and dad about it?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
178 126 [XENO:qst qst=773 ]
179 126 [XENO:qst qst=774 ]
180 126 [XENO:qst qst=775 ]
181 126 Thanks.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
182 126 That makes me sad.[XENO:n ] What am I going to do now?![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
183 126 I need you to go and ask my mum[XENO:n ] and dad about their keepsake.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Ask them what they need to fix it.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
184 126 You know what I need to fix the[XENO:n ] keepsake?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]You've even got the things I need?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Wow! You guys are so...nice.[XENO:n ] I think I'm going to cry...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Finally I can fix this stupid[XENO:n ] keepsake of theirs.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
185 126 Mum and Dad were so happy they[XENO:n ] cried and hugged.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Finally, they made up and we can[XENO:n ] go back to being a normal family![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Thank you so much![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
186 126 [XENO:trust trust= p:5:i ]I'm so, so grateful to you guys![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
187 126 My family is back together and not[XENO:n ] arguing![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I hope it stays like this until the[XENO:n ] end of time.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
188 126 [XENO:trust trust= p:5:a:313:1 ]Mixik wishes to fix the keepsake[XENO:n ] for Kazat and I...?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]She's right, though. We've been[XENO:n ] fighting for far too long.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
189 126 Mixik wishes to fix the keepsake[XENO:n ] for my husband and I...?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]She's right, though. We've been[XENO:n ] fighting for far too long.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
190 126 The precious keepsake that broke[XENO:n ] was a hand-crafted brooch.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It's dear to us because my[XENO:n ] husband and I made it together.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]What did we use to make it?[XENO:n ] Now let me think here...[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Bronze Wood and... Nope.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I can't remember the second thing[XENO:n ] we used to make it.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
191 126 [XENO:qst qst=775 ]
192 126 It's not right when a parent makes[XENO:n ] a child worry like this.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I need to apologise to Mixik.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
193 126 [XENO:qst_start ]What am I going to do...?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I really have to get it to them...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
194 126 Hey, maybe you can help.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I don't mean to burden you with[XENO:n ] this, but I need some help here.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
195 126 I need to get food to the villagers[XENO:n ] keeping watch outside the village.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I haven't been feeling well lately[XENO:n ] and I can't bring myself to go out.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
196 126 They look forward to me taking[XENO:n ] them their meals every day.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]If only someone else could take[XENO:n ] the meals to them for me.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Then everyone would be happy.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
197 126 I can understand how you feel.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]We could deliver the food[XENO:n ] to them on your behalf.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]You should not overexert yourself[XENO:n ] if you are feeling out of sorts.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
198 126 That's so sweet of you to say![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I think I'll take you up on[XENO:n ] your kind offer![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
199 126 [XENO:qst qst=776 ]
200 126 So you'll take the food for me?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I am so grateful![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
201 126 The two villagers keep watch[XENO:n ] near the Digit 2 area.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]They should be stationed by the[XENO:n ] sea a little way down from Digit 2.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Keep a good 'lookout' for them.[XENO:n ] Haha![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
202 126 I guess you're right.[XENO:n ] I should be doing it myself.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I'm sorry for trying to push you.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Thanks for listening and I'll see[XENO:n ] you later.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
203 126 The two villagers keep watch[XENO:n ] near the Digit 2 area.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]They should be stationed by the[XENO:n ] sea a little way down from Digit 2.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Keep a good 'lookout' for them.[XENO:n ] Haha![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
204 126 You went already? Wow![XENO:n ] That was quick![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]What's that? A fish...for me?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Aaah, how thoughtful of him.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
205 126 [XENO:trust trust= p:5:e:358:3 ]It's just like Theo to be thinking[XENO:n ] of others. He's a kind soul.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Maybe if I make this into a soup[XENO:n ] I'll get better sooner...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
206 126 OK then![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]I'm going to get some rest so I can[XENO:n ] get back to work tomorrow.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ]
