Laby is uncertain about talking about Nisha, though after the conversation with Ignia, she learns to accept sadness. She tells her story to Master Denif, even though it doesn't tell them who she is really, even though she finds the Henir's energy familiar. After meeting with Rosso, she learns that she is probably from the Demon Realm, although they don't know for sure, because the demonic energy is really similar to the one in Demon Realm, yet vastly different.
Clues of who she is have been gathered, but still no answer. Laby talks to Ignia, who reveals her concerns.
Quest Acceptance Dialogue
Laby:Haaaa...
Laby:Laby thought sage would know who Laby is right away!! But looks like it's not that easy...
Laby:But Laby heard a lot! Maybe Laby will know who Laby is after talking a lot, like this?
Nisha:(......)
Laby:Maybe if I told them who you are... They might have known more about who Laby is...
Laby:But Master Denif is right! Laby wasn't ready. Laby's not sure what to do with you yet!
Laby:It's... Kind of like what Sasha said. Because it hurt before, Laby was denying all future friendships. Even though Laby could become closer with Nisha, Laby was running away, because it's scary.
Laby:Even if everyone lives with sadness... Laby is still scared...
Laby:... Laby's still not sure. Do you need sadness to be happy?
Laby:Haaaaaa...
Ignia:Hey! Why the long face?
Laby:Eh?!
Ignia:I've never seen you around before! You must be the guest that came earlier today!
Laby:Who are you? Do you know Laby?
Ignia:Haha, I'm the Fire Priestess Ignia! Sorry I didn't introduce myself earlier. I wasn't feeling well, you see.
Laby:Hi, Ignia! I'm Laby!
Laby:Oh! They said someone named Ignia was passed out. Is that you?
Ignia:They said that? I hope they didn't make it sound too bad...
Laby:It IS you! They said you were hurt! Are you ok?
Ignia:It's really not that bad. Thanks for the concern, though.
Ignia:So... Laby? I heard the basics from others. You want to know who you are? Why are you out here by yourself, then? Aren't you tired?
Laby:Laby had something to think about! And Laby's not alone! Nisha is here, too!
Ignia:Oh, so this is the strange mirror that everyone was talking about! Looks like it doesn't reflect anything.
Ignia:So... You had something to think about? You're a little different from what I heard. Anduran said you were more... bright. And lively.
Laby:Laby's not ALWAYS lively...
Ignia:Haha! It's fine! Everyone has something they worry about! In fact, that's why I'm here.
Laby:Ignia has a problem too? What is it?
Ignia:Hm... Where should I begin? Don't be shocked but...
Quest Completion Dialogue
Ignia:I used to help demons in the past.
Laby:What? Laby too!
Ignia:What? Why would you?
Laby:Eh?! That's bad? But Ignia did it too! And Calonne is really nice!
Ignia:Haha! Well, I guess it's ok if he was a nice demon, but the demon I helped, Scar, was a real bad guy who threatened others and used them.
Laby:Ehh... But why did Ignia help him if he's so bad?
Ignia:I had something to protect. Well... It was really that, or something else, which... wasn't really that great of a choice either.
Ignia:So, how much do you know about the Fire El? Did you know that it's really hard to find the right priestess, because they easily get swallowed up by their power?
Laby:Nope! But Laby does now! So Ignia must be really great, right?
Ignia:Well, I guess so! Nobody really needed me when I was growing up, so I was really happy when the baby elder told me I was needed.
Ignia:I thought... That was my purpose in life.
Laby:Purpose... In life...
Ignia:It was really hard, handling the Fire El, but it was worth it. Think about it! It's to protect world peace! Who wouldn't think it's important?
Ignia:When I got used to fire energy and became stronger, I firmly believed in my own strengths and my duties. It's a power that makes up part of this world! I thought I could do anything.
Ignia:... It wasn't long until I realized that I was becoming arrogant with pride. But when I realized that, Gloria and Darkmoon were already captured.
Laby:(So this is what Gloria was talking about earlier...)
Ignia:So I decided to assist Scar, on the condition that Gloria and Darkmoon would be kept safe... I almost led the El Search Party, no all of Elrios into danger.
Ignia:Isn't it weird? I, who was happy to keep the world a safer place, did something that endangered the world.
Laby:But...! You were just trying to protect them!
Ignia:Yeah. That's what everyone said. They accepted me, a traitor, telling me it's ok as long as we stay together from now on. That's why I tried so hard after I arrived here.
Ignia:Although the Fire Master is still missing, I thought I should do my best to stabilize the fire energy. But...
While taking to Ignia, Laby remembers what Bellonde told her.
Quest Acceptance Dialogue
Ignia:Haha! I got the scolding of my life time! The fire energy inside the El became all messed up, so everyone really had a hard time. I heard that the balance between the El and Henir's energy was also disturbed so the Wind Barrier also became unstable.
Ignia:I can't face Master Ventus, who believed in us to keep balance while he's gone... Or Master Denif who worked on balancing out the energy in my place.
Laby:......
Ignia:Everyone said it was ok this time, too. But that really wasn't the point. I was so angry at myself and all my shortcomings.
Laby:So what did you do?
Ignia:I don't know what to do yet! I first thought it was because I wasn't good enough... That I was just troubling everyone...
Ignia:But now, being a Fire Priestess is really important to me. I don't want to give up.
Ignia:So I was just trying to think of ways to become stronger.
Laby:So did you find an answer?
Ignia:I didn't know what to do, but looking at you makes me think.
Laby:Huh? Looking at Laby?
Ignia:Because Fire Priestesses are rare, I didn't really get a chance to learn from the Fire Priestess before me, but...
Ignia:Since Master Gaia came back with you, I get the feeling the Fire Master might return soon as well? Haha, really. It's just a random hunch though.
Ignia:As the Fire Master, he must be really good at controlling fire energy, right? So if I learn how to control fire energy from him... I should be able to become stronger.
Laby:It's amazing that Ignia is always thinking hard about your worries. Your mind is really tough!
Laby:... Laby just ignored everything that hurt and forgot about it...
Quest Completion Dialogue
Ignia:Is that what you're worried about?
Laby:Uh huh. Laby promised Laby wasn't going to ignore it anymore... But just knowing doesn't change anything, so Laby was wondering what to do now.
Ignia:There were times I wanted to run away too, because it was hard. If it were just me, I would have given up.
Ignia:But if it weren't for all those difficult times, I wouldn't have made it here, thinking about what I should do to make things better tomorrow.
Ignia:All those times you spend struggling and sad isn't meaningless. Those times you spend struggling, will eventually make you stronger.
Laby:...!
Bellonde:... I told what my sister told me to heart. Nothing is meaningless.
Bellonde:It might be those precious small moments that allowed you to arrive at your goal in the end.
Laby:... There's nothing that's meaningless...
Ignia:Yeah! Like... A teacher!
Laby:Teacher...
Laby:Something that's needed for Laby to reach the goal...!
Laby:That's it! It's not just about time! You have to fill those times with many things to make it meaningful!
Ignia:Huh? Time? Meaning?
Laby:You can't just fill up time with something you like, you have to fill them with something painful too! If everything is the same, that's the same as being still
Laby: You have to learn a lot of things and feel something new in order to move ahead! Everything it Laby's teacher!
Laby:Thanks, Ignia! Now Laby is less scared of sadness. Laby can be brave to accept sadness, now.
Ignia:Is that so? I'm not sure what you're talking about, but that's good.
Laby:So, Laby will let Ignia know first! Actually, Nisha is...
Ignia:... I just wanted to say hello, but we ended up talking for awhile. I wonder if Darkmoon will be upset I was out?
Ignia:So... Laby? It's a bit hard to believe what she told me... But she didn't seem like she was lying.
Ignia:I wonder why? I want to believe her, even though we just met. I ended up telling her my whole life story!
Ignia:She was really interested. Haha. I can't wait to hear what everyone thinks of her tomorrow.
Although startled by her sudden revelation, the masters and priestesses listen to Laby.
Quest Acceptance Dialogue
Gaia:Nisha... Is your sadness?
Laby:Uh huh! Nisha is Laby's sadness.
Denif:...
Sasha:Is she... being metaphoric?
Laby:Mm... It's ok, Laby understands... It's hard to believe! Ignia had a hard time too.
Ignia:Hahaha, I told you I believe you now, didn't I?
Denif:Ignia, is there a legitimate reason that made you believe what she said?
Ignia:Well... When you say legitimate... I just didn't think Laby had any reason to lie. Plus, you can see she's really serious about finding out who she is...
Denif:It's intuitive... I understand your reasoning, but it's hard to believe he words without proof.
Laby:It's ok if you don't believe Laby now! Laby never saw anyone like Laby and Nisha either, and it's really hard to explain because Laby doesn't really understand what Nisha is.
Laby:But... Laby is telling the truth, so please listen. And if you find anyone similar to Laby, let Laby know!
Gaia:Laby...
Gloria:... I want to hear her story. I believe in Laby!
Anduran:Me too! We have nothing to lose! And... I get the feeling that Laby won't lie, either!
Artea:It's always better to have more information. We can decide later whether it sounds legitimate. Isn't that right, Master Denif?
Denif:... I understand.
Denif:We will listen. We can decide afterwards whether or not to believe her.
Laby:Hehee! Thanks everyone!
Gaia:... Laby, does this have anything to do with how you acted during our journey?
Gaia:When you avoided answering about your friend, or that time you weren't sure how to act when the passengers were crying in fear...
Laby:Uh huh! Because Nisha had all the memories about sadness, Laby didn't understand what adness was when Laby was with teacher.
Gaia:... I see.
Gaia:I don't really understand right now, but you were always quite special.
Gaia:Tell us, Laby. What happened to you in the forest?
Quest Completion Dialogue
Laby:... So that's when Nisha started to follow Laby around all the time.
Darkmoon:Oh... So your friend was...
Laby:Laby just realized that Nisha is Laby's sadness. It wasn't until Laby was going through the barrier with teacher that Laby understood.
Gaia:What happened in the barrier? You were seriously injured...
Laby:All the sad memories in Nisha came out when Laby was going through the barrier. When Laby faced all the sad memories, that's when Laby realized...
Laby:No, not realize... Laby accepted what Laby always knew. Laby always ran away to forget sadness, and Nisha appeared to take sadness away from Laby.
Laby:It was really painful, but if Laby didn't face all those sad memories, Laby still wouldn't know what Nisha is. So, Laby is glad it happened.
Ignia:Wow, you really thought hard about this, didn't you?
Denif:If you knew what Nisha was, why did you act like you didn't know? Why are you telling us now?
Laby:Mm... Well, Laby wasn't sure what to do with Nisha. It was hard to explain...
Laby:Laby said Laby wouldn't ignore Nisha, but it was still scary to feel sadness. Even now, Laby's not sure Laby can face sadness...
Laby:But somebody told Laby that sadness is something everyone feels, and you can become stronger by facing it! So... Laby thinks it will be ok now.
Ignia:... I'm happy for you.
Laby:Hehee, it's thanks to Ignia! Anyway, Laby was really really sad, and something happened and now Laby is separated from sadness!
Denif:Honestly, it's still hard to accept your story. Emotions growing faint or losing emotion is a common enough phenomenon among humans, but I have never heard of an instance in which an emotion had become a separate entity.
Denif:But we do not know what you are yet, and not understanding the situation is not a good enough reason to claim it false.
Laby:Does that mean... You believe Laby?
Denif:From what I have seen so far, I agree with others that you truly wish to learn about who you are.
Denif:Lying will only hinder our efforts to finding out the truth. Therefore, I merely concluded that you have no reason to lie.
Laby:Hehee. Laby still doesn't understand Master Denif, but you accept Laby's story, right?
Laby:That's enough! Laby knows Laby's story is hard to believe, so Laby is really, really happy! Thanks everyone for believing in Laby!
Denif explains why Laby might have been familiar with Henir Barrier by explaining different theories that surrounded the Black Forest.
Quest Acceptance Dialogue
Denif:But... That still doesn't tell us about what you are... A being that can separate with its emotion?
Denif:It could be, the connection between your body and emotion is weak, or you, yourself have separated from the original to become an independent entity, much like your sadness have separated from you.
Denif:So you've seen an apparition in the barrier that allowed you to realize your sadness... Gaia, have you experienced something similar?
Gaia:No. I didn't see any apparition. Only a dark, deep path.
Denif:Henir's energy is that of chaos and destruction. It is difficult to predict what happens within its realm, and often those predictions are meaningless.
Laby:Um, so... That Henir's barrier... Laby thought about it, but...
Laby:Something feels really familiar! Even though Laby never saw Henir before!
Gaia:It's familiar? You said that before we entered the barrier... Was there something similar in Northern Empire?
Laby:Not really... It's not how it looks that's familiar, but... The energy... It's like Laby knew the energy for a very long time...
Denif:... Black Forest...
Denif:The forest always posed a threat even before the foundation of the Elrian Kingdom. Though there were many expeditions sent to the forest, no one was able to exterminate the monsters completely.
Denif:Even though people suspected the monsters' nest was somewhere deep in the forest, they were unable to head deeper. Instead, they found themselves lost, circling around the edge of the forest.
Laby:Oh! Laby knows about this! It's because of the one that makes human noise, right?
Denif:There is a monster that imitates human voices, but it's actually the forest itself that holds a maze-like quality.
Denif:Once it was decided that it's impossible to get rid of the Black Forest, they built a temple there, to prevent monsters from attacking nearby villages.
Denif:Now, my point is, there were many theories surrounding the forest at the time, one of which, theorizing that there's a portal deep within the forest that is connected to a monsters' nest.
Laby:Portal...?
Ignia:What is it, Laby? Do you remember something?
Laby:Huh? N, no... Laby doesn't remember seeing anything like that.
Laby:But since the forest is really really big, maybe it was somewhere else!
Denif:Hm... That theory was considered a wild one even back then, but considering the recent events, I believe it holds some merit.
Denif:The portal, could be Henir's rift, linked to the Demon Realm.
Quest Completion Dialogue
Laby:Henir's Rift?
Denif:If you've come through the rift from the Demon Realm, it explains why you are somewhat immune to demonic energy and why you are familiar with Henir's energy.
Gaia:Isn't that... quite a jump in logic? Sure, the demons recently invaded Elrios, but it's not that easy to move between the Demon Realm and Elrios...
Gaia:... Henir's Rift... You're talking of the Order's...
Denif:Currently, there are two known energies that are able to link between dimensions. One is the poewr of El, the other is Henir's energy.
Denif:We know it's possible, since the Order summoned monsters in the middle of Elrianode using Henir's energy.
Laby:But you said there were two energies. Why do you think the portal is made of Henir's energy?
Artea:... That's because there's a possibility that the whole purpose of the El is to prevent demons from invading Elrios.
Gaia:What...?!
Artea:Considering how many demons were able to invade Elrios as soon as they got a hold of an El shard, the Demon Realm may be closer to Elrios than we thought.
Artea:However even with the power of El, we never knew the Demon Realm existed... And we suspect that's because the El itself rejects the Demon Realm.
Gaia:But even if the Demon Realm and Elrios are close, that doesn't mean the two are linked through Henir's energy!
Denif:It is already linked.
Gaia:...!!
Denif:The El Search Party is in the Demon Realm to help restore the El and learn of the Order's plan even at this moment.
Denif:I haven't noticed, when we were initially sending them over to the Demon Realm, but when we opened the seal again, I felt it. It was Henir's energy that flowed through the open seal.
Laby:The El Search Party? Then Elsword too...
Sasha:Since we have precedence, it's feasible that there's a similar portal elsewhere.
Gaia:Master Denif, was it truly necessary to send the El Search Party to the Demon Realm?
Gaia:I'm not saying they aren't trustworthy, they already helped you multiple times after all, but... It feels like we are unloading what should be our responsibilities, unto them.
Darkmoon:... They are not completely uninvolved in the situation... Elsword's sister, Elesis, is the next El Lady...
Gaia:Oh... That is...
Artea:If we do not restore the El completely to its stabilized state, the El will require another sacrifice. Of course, we will do our best if it even comes to that, but...
Anduran:Our power is not enough. We will all need to do much more than we have done before in order to prevent any future sacrifice. Right, Master Denif?
Denif:Mm. So the conclusion we made was that we need the 'Dark El' which is likely located in the Demon Realm.
Denif:.....
Laby:(Huh? Is he watching Laby?)
Denif:When Elrianode was just restored, Henir's Order invaded to seize the El.
Gaia:So they struck again...!
Denif:Their commander fused a Dark El shard with Primordial El to transform into a monster with immense capabilities.
Denif:Thankfully, we were able to protect the El Tower with the help from the El Search Party. That's when we learned the existence of the Dark El.
Denif:Right now, Elrianode cannot expect any assistance. There's no Royal Guard, no Seven Tower. It will be difficult for the El Masters to leave El Tower to take matters into our own hand...
Denif:But we will not burden the El Search Party with everything. Our work here will be as important as finding the new energy.
Gaia:... I understand. This time, we will protect it.
Artea:It's important that we keep a balance to keep the El stable, so it's best if you don't push yourself too hard, lest you pass out.
Ignia:Sorry! Sorry... I won't do it again...
Denif:Good, looks like everyone is well aware of their own duties. We should be prepared, since we don't know when Henir's Order might attack again.
Laby:Oh! Master Denif! If Elsword went to the Demon Realm, what portal did he use?
Gaia:I was curious as well, a seal? What do you mean?
The Wind Master and Fire Master appear beneath the Giant El. Rosso does not react positively to Ignia's presence.
Quest Acceptance Dialogue
VOOOM--
Sasha:Master Denif... The spirit stone...
Denif:Right on time. It's better you see for yourself.
Denif:Everyone, gather here. Gaia, assist me.
Gaia:Yes... What exactly are we doing?
Denif:Now that they've arrived, we should open the way through the seal.
Gaia:Arrived?
Laby:Who's coming?
Gaia:W, wait... Why are you coming out of that?!
Gaia:No, first of all, why is that thing under the El... I mean, is that the seal? Please, would somebody just explain?
Ventus:Haha, hey, Junior! You look taller since last time we met!
Denif:I'm glad you're safe, Ventus. And...
Denif:... Welcome back, Rosso.
Rosso:... I'm back, Old Man.
Gaia:Master Rosso, what happened? Your injuries...
Ventus:Haha, it's his fault for falling asleep somewhere random.
Rosso:I'll make you sleep for eternity...
Ventus:My, so violent! Did I say something wrong? Kids these days, this is how he treats me, even though I protected him with my life in Henir's Realm...
Gaia:Henir's Realm?
Ventus:Yes, Henir's Realm. I did suspect before I went in, but beyond the seal if Henir's Realm. It's seemingly endless. There's even an organism consisted of chaos.
Denif:As we suspected. Henir's energy was powerful enough to leak through the seal. It's no surprise that it's all Henir's Realm beyond the seal.
Ventus:Well, it was fine going, but coming back, it was a bit harder since the creatures were more vicious. Probably because they're not too keen on having intruders.
Denif:... Then it could be even more dangerous when the El Search Party returns.
Ventus:Hm? Is that how it works? Oh well. First, I think we should celebrate that all the Masters at the final El Master's meeting are all here!
Artea:Greeting, Fire Master, we are this generation's El priestesses.
Rosso:Priestesses...? Is there a fire priestess as well?
Ignia:Oh, that's me! I mean... I am the current Fire Priestess, Ignia!
Rosso:You're mad.
Ignia:Excuse me?
Quest Completion Dialogue
Ventus:Hey, Rosso.
Rosso:What were you thinking? Do you not understand what fire energy does? It's not something you can just control.
Laby:Heeyyy!! Don't be mean!
Ignia:Ah... Hahaha... I may not be as experienced as you, Fire Master, but I do try my best as the Fire Priestess...
Rosso:You do not have enough power and your body is weak. Don't waste your time here, and leave...!
Denif:That's enough, Rosso. I understand what you are trying to say, but...
Ignia:Grr, are you done?! Hey, you think being the Fire Master gives you the right to just stroll in late, and then tell me what to do?
Laby:Uuuahh! Ig, Ignia... Calm...
Ignia:Does the great mighty Fire Master even understand how hard it was? If it weren't for me, there would be no one here to stabilize the fire energy!!
Rosso:... Don't gloat, you don't even have that much power...
Rosso:Now that I'm here, you don't need to do anything! Got that? You can go home or something!
Ignia:Don't tell me what to do! I'm not your underling! Hmph! You're not even as tall as I am.
Rosso:What did you say?!
Artea:... Shall we... Intervene?
Denif:Haa... Gaia.
Gaia:Now now, Master Rosso, you must be irritated because of your injuries. Why don't we talk after you've calmed down!
Rosso:Hey! Tiny! Let me down! I'm not going until I'm done with her!
Gaia:Haha, this reminds me of the old days. You seem tired, you should go and rest.
Rosso:Don't think this is over!! Hey!! Do you hear me?!
Gloria:They're gone...
Laby:He was really like a fire...
Ventus:Whew! Yup, that's Rosso alright. But I didn't expect Miss Fire Priestess here, to retort like that!
Ignia:Grrr... What kind of...!
Ignia:Haa...
Ventus:Hey, what's wrong now, where's all that spunk you had just a moment ago?
Ignia:I can't help it... I was waiting for this moment, meeting the Fire Master for the first time... To ruin it like this...
Ventus:Ruin it? You couldn't have done it better!
Ignia:Uhh... Are you teasing me?
Ventus:I'll tell you a secret. Rosso? He's so focused on his own ideas, that he doesn't see anything else. So it's most effective if you confront him head on with honesty. He gets startled, because he never expects it.
Ventus:Just like fire, right? If you approach timidly, you will be swallowed. If you're going to fight, you need to be explosive!
Ignia:Did you just admit you orchestrated the fight? (sigh) I wonder if the first Fire Priestess also argued with him like I did.
Ventus:Not at all! She was very good at ignoring everything he said unless it was important. She would smile and nod, only to do whatever she wanted. Rosso would always rage, then give up.
Ignia:So I did something wrong...
Denif:No I agree with Ventus. You did well. Many people don't know how to act when confronted with Rosso's fiery personality.
Denif:Darkmoon, will you look into Rosso's injuries?
Laby followed Rosso to help Ignia, but Rosso seems irritated in her presence. When Rosso reveals more about himself than he intended, he looks at Laby in distrust.
Quest Acceptance Dialogue
Gaia:Thank you, Darkmoon, it seems we're always in your care.
Darkmoon:It's nothing... I'm much happier helping others than when I had to hide to protect the El...
Laby:Darkmoon is Amazing! Great! Nice!
Rosso:If you're done healing, stop disturbing me and leave.
Laby:Why do you have to talk like that? Even to Ignia!
Gaia:Laby, Master Rosso was always...
Rosso:That's what I want to say. What are you doing here? You don't look like a priestess.
Gaia:Oh, this is Laby. She came here with me from Velder...
Laby:Laby asked first!! Ignia tried really hard! It was really mean how you talked like that!
Rosso:You should mind your own business, if you don't know what you're talking about. Fire energy cannot be handled by anyone. It's best for her to give up now.
Gaia:Haa...
Laby:So you should teach her how!
Rosso:... Why should I?
Laby:Because Ignia was waiting for you! Ignia said her goal was to be a good priestess! She wanted to learn from you, to become better!
Rosso:I see you have already decided before you even met me.
Laby:Isn't it better to do it together than doing it alone? It's really hard right? Laby knows Ignia would do her best...
Rosso:That's why I don't want her. It's different if it were her... But if she continues the way she did, she will burn all her life, her energy.
Rosso:Besides... I don't want any one else sacrificed for this...
Rosso:... Wait, why am I telling you this?
Laby:You're the one who told Laby...
Quest Completion Dialogue
Rosso:Hey, so you brought this? Do you even know what she is?
Gaia:I met Laby at the Black Forest. She wanted to know who she is, so I've brought her to Elrianode.
Rosso:So she's not even related to the El. Old Man is going senile, leaving someone like her here...
Gaia:M, Master Rosso! Please, watch your words.
Gaia:... Laby helped me personally. She's not someone that will bring harm to us.
Rosso:She's really good at letting our guard down. How do you know this won't harm us? She could be a spy from the Order, here to glean information.
Rosso:You were always soft, but I almost let my guard down, and it's odd that Old Man, that complete rationalist, is just letting her, an outsider, stay here.
Rosso:What are you? Why did you come here?
Laby:Were you even listening to teacher? Laby is here to find out who Laby is!
Rosso:Teacher?
Gaia:I... Well, that's how it is.
Rosso:You must be doing a splendid job.
Rosso:... Ha?
Gaia:Master Rosso?
Rosso:I see, so this is why Old Man let her stay.
Laby:Ohhh! Do you remember something? You were in the Demon Realm, right? Did you see someone like Laby?
Rosso:I have to information to give to a stranger.
Laby:Mrrr!! Laby doesn't know either!!
Rosso:That's more the reason not to. How can I trust someone who doesn't even know who they are?
Rosso:Begone. I'm only letting you go because of Tiny here, but if you ever come near me again...
Gaia:Please, Master Rosso. I ask of you as well.
Rosso:... I can't believe this. Do you think I'm just letting her be, because I can't kill her?
Gaia:I believe she is trustworthy. Laby helped no only me, but countless others on our way here. If it weren't for her, I may not have made it here.
Everyone asks Rosso for information. Who Laby is, is now even more of a mystery.
Quest Acceptance Dialogue
Darkmoon:... Laby told us that she was able to leave the forest when the El was restored.
Gaia:Darkmoon?
Darkmoon:Since Henir's Order vehemently denies the importance of the El, I don't think they would have made anything that would be influenced by the El... So I don't think Laby has anything to do with the Order...
Darkmoon:I was able to learn what my sister was thinking all this time thanks to Laby, so please... If you know anything, let her know.
Laby:Darkmooon...
Rosso:...... Haa...
Rosso:... She's probably from the Demon Realm.
Gaia:What?!
Laby:Huh?!
Rosso:What's with that response? I'm going to rest now, go away.
Laby:Wait, wait! So Laby is a demon? But everyone said Laby doesn't have any demonic energy! Aren't demons supposed to have demonic energy?
Rosso:... Be quiet. Yes, normal demons have demonic energy.
Laby:Can you feel demonic energy from Laby? Uh... Master Denif said Laby might be from the Demon Realm but...
Rosso:Old Man? I'm surprised he caught on, when he never even his tail in the Demon Realm... So Denif didn't keep you here just because of Tiny.
Rosso:He must have felt the odd energy inside your body. It's not something you find in Elrios, so he probably thought it was best to keep an eye on you.
Laby:Master Denif...?
Quest Completion Dialogue
Laby:What's Laby's odd energy? Are you talking about demonic energy?
Rosso:Actually, it's an energy that's likely from the Demon Realm. Since those in Elrios don't come in contact with the Demon Realm, it stands to reason that you are somehow related to the Demon Realm.
Rosso:Even though what you have is not demonic energy, it's an energy within the Demon Realm nonetheless. It's not noticeable unless one's been to the Demon Realm, though.
Laby:Demon Realm energy similar to demonic energy...!! Then what IS Laby? Demon? Human?
Rosso:Didn't I just explain... haa... I don't know for sure, I only recognized your energy because it's similar to the energy nearby where I was sleeping. I never saw anything like you. That's why I thought you were one of the Order's experiments.
Laby:Maybe... Laby was really made by this Order?
Rosso:Hey!! Don't you dare!! Now that I've given you information, you can't ever side with the Order! I'll kill you otherwise!
Gaia:So... Laby holds energy from the Demon Realm, but is different from other demons?
Rosso:Humans call any being with the energy from the Demon Realm, demons. In that sense, she is one. No matter how different, or how similar she is to other demons, she has something similar to demonic energy.
Rosso:But... It's not pure demonic energy... So maybe she's an offspring of a demon and some other being... Or she was created artificially.
Rosso:If I still had the Crimson Eye, I would have been able to learn more, but this is as much as I can figure out at this moment.
Laby:What is that! It's even more confusing now!
Rosso:Is that how you thank someone who told you everything they know? I'll have you know, nobody else here would have figured that out!
Laby:But...! Uaah... Alright... Thanks...
Rosso:I don't know why I expected a sincere thanks. Hey, Tiny...
Gaia:Ah, Master Rosso, thank you for your assistance. Even though it was unexpected.
Rosso:Don't get me wrong. I told you so you would be on your guard.
Gaia:...!
Rosso:If something happens to Elrianode because of her, it will be your fault. Remember that.
Gaia:... That will not happen.
Gaia:I won't let that happen.
Rosso:... Now you're acting like Long Ears... Just don't regret it later...
Gaia:Thank you for the concern. I will take your words to heart.
Rosso:I did not...!
Rosso:Haa... Whatever. Do whatever you want.
Laby:Um... Darkmoon. Thank you for earlier, but uh...
Darkmoon:So we still don't know what you are... We failed you...
Laby:What are you talking about! If it weren't for Darkmoon, Laby wouldn't have even known there's some odd energy inside Laby!
Darkmoon:Don't worry, Laby.
Laby:Huh?
Darkmoon:We won't start avoiding you just because you are a demon, or closely related to the Demon Realm.
Laby:... Really?
Darkmoon:As Sasha reminded us, we already know a demon who helped us. Even if you are a demon... I know you would still help us, right?
