It doesn't matter how many times[XENO:n ]
I come here, it still amazes me.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:act act=EVT_EXT9 ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 2 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT4 ]It's impressive all right.[XENO:n ]
Can't believe it's so old...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 3 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT1 ]Do you not have such ancient[XENO:n ]
architecture near your colony?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:act act=EVT_EXT3 ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 4 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT2 ]Nope. Not still looking all shiny[XENO:n ]
and new like this.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Mag Mell Ruins is the closest. But[XENO:n ]
it's taken a beatin' over the years.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 5 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT7 ]Then it truly is a unique place.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 6 |
|
126 |
So that globe thing...[XENO:n ]
What's that all about?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 7 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT9 ]I'm afraid I don't know the answer.[XENO:n ]
It's a mystery to me too.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 8 |
|
126 |
[XENO:sel sel=・Let's go and take a look./・You mean you don't know? ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 9 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT7 ]I guess you wouldn't know, but[XENO:n ]
that thing roughed us up good.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 10 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT7 ]Then my guess would be that[XENO:n ]
it's the nerve centre of the Tomb.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Perhaps the Tomb's defence[XENO:n ]
systems were activated.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 11 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT9 ]Do you know how it works?[XENO:n ]
Ether or something, right?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 12 |
|
126 |
You're probably correct.[XENO:n ]
But how is that possible?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]This was built many years ago.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]The technology to extract high[XENO:n ]
quantities of ether energy is new.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 13 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT22 ]Us Homs could do with that.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 14 |
|
126 |
[XENO:sel sel=・Mind sharing it with us?/・But you kept it to yourselves! ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 15 |
|
126 |
We're um...a bit behind[XENO:n ]
with stuff like this.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Floating cities and flying machines[XENO:n ]
are a bit advanced for our lot.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 16 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT9 ]If you're in need of technology,[XENO:n ]
we'd be happy to share it with you.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]We High Entia will no longer[XENO:n ]
shut ourselves away to others.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 17 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT16 ]So you'll help us? Brilliant![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]No more getting shouted at[XENO:n ]
by old Square-tache![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]He hates it when we don't[XENO:n ]
find cylinders.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 18 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT2 ]Who is this 'Square-tache'?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 19 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT18 ]Oh, forget it. It's nothin'.[XENO:n ]
Just me blabbering on.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:act act=EVT_EXT4 ][System:PageBreak ]You reckon one day we can make[XENO:n ]
those air ships you lot have?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It'd be amazing! I've always[XENO:n ]
wanted my own plane.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Cheers, Melia! It's gonna be great![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:act act=EVT_EXT6 ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 20 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT2 ]I, er...feel we've drifted slightly[XENO:n ]
from the subject at hand.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:act act=EVT_EXT1 ][System:PageBreak ]Regardless, from now on the High[XENO:n ]
Entia and Homs will work together.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Hand in hand we'll restore Colony[XENO:n ]
9 to its former glory and beyond![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:act act=EVT_EXT3 ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 21 |
|
126 |
We could have made loads of[XENO:n ]
really good weapons, you know![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Maybe even stopped the Mechon[XENO:n ]
from murdering our families...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 22 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT9 ]You are right, Reyn...[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:act act=EVT_EXT10 ][System:PageBreak ]We High Entia chose to turn[XENO:n ]
a blind eye. I'm not proud.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 23 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT4 ]Sorry, I didn't mean to blame you.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]None of that's your fault.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 24 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT12 ]No, your point was valid.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]That's why it has to be different.[XENO:n ]
Homs and High Entia together.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]We will rebuild your homes and[XENO:n ]
get you back on your feet.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 25 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT19 ]Really? You mean it?[XENO:n ]
Thanks, Melia![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]No more Square-tache telling-offs![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]No more trips out of the colony[XENO:n ]
for those Ether Cylinders![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 26 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT1 ]Telling-offs? What are you[XENO:n ]
talking about?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:act act=EVT_EXT3 ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 27 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT21 ]Ah, nothing! Umm...[XENO:n ]
It's personal.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ][XENO:act act=EVT3 ]Anyway, thanks a bunch, Melia![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 28 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT7 ]I am confused...but then, I find[XENO:n ]
I often am when talking to you.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 29 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT2 ]What, did you skip tech class[XENO:n ]
in school or something?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 30 |
|
126 |
I am leaving.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 31 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT4 ]Easy, Melia. I was joking![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 32 |
|
126 |
I see... Reaching a little,[XENO:n ]
don't you think?[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ][XENO:act act=EVT_EXT1 ]According to the Ministry of[XENO:n ]
Research, it's the Tomb's centre.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Perhaps the defence systems[XENO:n ]
were activated.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:act act=EVT_EXT3 ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 33 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT2 ]Pretty amazing for something[XENO:n ]
you lot built ages ago![XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]What's with all the scribbles on[XENO:n ]
the wall? That your alphabet?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 34 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT7 ]That is an ancient script.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It depicts the battle between the[XENO:n ]
Bionis and the Mechonis.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 35 |
|
126 |
[XENO:sel sel=・Battle? What battle?/・It's really that old?! ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 36 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT22 ]Oh, you mean the one the Bionis[XENO:n ]
and Mechonis fought forever ago?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 37 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT1 ]If you know already,[XENO:n ]
why bother asking me?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:act act=EVT_EXT3 ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 38 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT24 ]Yeah, umm... I just remembered.[XENO:n ]
I learnt about it in school.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 39 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT2 ]You're a strange one, Reyn.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But yes, these are thought to be[XENO:n ]
writings of that ancient battle.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 40 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT1 ]So you don't know exactly[XENO:n ]
what it says here?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:act act=EVT_EXT3 ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 41 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT1 ]No. Only those that ascend the[XENO:n ]
throne are able to read it.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]It is like a code that must[XENO:n ]
be unlocked.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 42 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT7 ]So you can't read it...at all? And[XENO:n ]
I thought you were pretty smart.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 43 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT7 ]You of all people should avoid[XENO:n ]
making remarks about intelligence.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 44 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT9 ]Hahaha. You got me there, Melia![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:act act=EVT4 ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 45 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT1 ]I thought there weren't any[XENO:n ]
records left from back then.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Or ruins. This could be the[XENO:n ]
only place left![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:act act=EVT_EXT3 ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 46 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT1 ]You do know a few things, Reyn.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]Yes. The battle was so fierce[XENO:n ]
it destroyed most of everything.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 47 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT7 ]Then that would make this text[XENO:n ]
pretty important, if you ask me.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 48 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT7 ]Very much so.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]However, only those that ascend[XENO:n ]
the throne are able to decipher it.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 49 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT9 ]That means you'll be able to[XENO:n ]
read it someday. Right?[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 50 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT_EXT9 ]I will, with some hard work.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]But before such things, we all[XENO:n ]
have much work to do.[XENO:wait wait=key ][System:PageBreak ]And that comes first.[XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
| 51 |
|
126 |
[XENO:act act=EVT3 ]No doubt, Melia.[XENO:n ]
So let's get back to it![XENO:wait wait=key ][XENO:del del=this ] |
