Description

Laby and Mao arrive at the underground prison. A strange light glimmers behind Mao, who is shaken when Calonne's secrets are revealed.

Quest Acceptance Dialogue
  • Laby: This place is really yucky and icky!
  • Mao: It's so dark, I can barely see anything. Maybe it's because we're underground.
  • Mao: So Gramps is here somewhere...
  • Laby: Bunch of meanies! Kidnapping Calonne that didn't do anything!
  • Mao: ... About that...
  • Mao: Do you think maybe Gramps HAS done something?
  • Laby: Eh? What do you mean?
  • Mao: ... It's nothing. Maybe it's the atmosphere. I'm overthinking things.
  • Laby: Is it because what we heard earlier?
  • Mao: ...!
  • Mao: ... I can't hide anything from you, can I? You're right. That guy, he said Gramps was a criminal who personally offended Lord Nenya.
  • Mao: I might be overthinking this... But Gramps told me he tries to avoid attracting attention. He always did, even before he met me.
  • Mao: But why? Maybe he did something bad before... Something I don't know...
  • Mao: I thought... Maybe he helped out Nenya before...
  • Laby: Geeh? Really, Mao?
  • Mao: When that guy said something... It didn't bother me. I know Gramps is a good person. But...
  • Mao: Seeing all these monsters inside the castle made me wonder. You see, Gramps had a secret, and it's... well... related to monsters... a bit...
  • Laby: (So Mao knows Calonne is a demon!)
  • Mao: Gramps doesn't know that I know his secret. Since Gramps is just Gramps, I never cared.
  • Mao: But now... I don't know... I'm starting to feel like I didn't really know him that well.
  • Laby: Mao, did Calonne seem like a bad guy when you lived with him?
  • Mao: No! Never! But...
  • Laby: Then we'll ask Calonne directly! Why he was dragged here and what he is hiding from Mao!
  • Mao: Directly...?
  • Laby: Laby only met Calonne for a short time, but even Laby knows Calonne cares about Mao a lot!
  • Laby: Laby believes in Calonne! Because Mao trusts him, and Mao likes him a lot! Right?
  • Mao: ... Hey, don't go trusting people you've barely met, really!
  • Mao: But yeah. I'll listen to him first! No use thinking about it until then!
  • Mao: ...?! Wait, someone's coming this way!
  • Laby: That's a monster we saw earlier! There's some inside too?
  • Prison Guard: Hm? I thought I heard something...
  • Mao: Ah, he's coming this way! We need to get out of here!
  • Laby: Mao, over here! Let's hide in this hole!
Quest Completion Dialogue
  • Laby: ... He went away. You can come out now!
  • Mao: I thought we were going to be discovered...
  • Mao: It's so dark... How do you move around like that?
  • Laby: Where Laby's from, was reaaaally dark! Laby can see everything!
  • Mao: Well. It's really useful.
  • Laby: Eh? That guy from earlier... He's coming back! Does he just hang around here?
  • Mao: He must be a prison guard. We should move when he's not watching.
  • Mao: Using monsters as mere prison guards? Nenya might be more dangerous than we initially thought.
  • Mao: Now I'm even more worried about Gramps... Haaa... I hope we find him soon.
  • ???: Who's there?

Description

The man in the prison cell was the previous lord.
Although he initially refuses Laby's help, he changes his mind and reveals his predicament when Laby persists.
Defeat the demons guarding the prison and rescue the Lord and the villagers.

Quest Acceptance Dialogue
  • Laby: Waahhh! Mao! There's someone in here!
  • Mao: He must be one of the villagers that Nenya captured. Hey, are you alright?
  • ???: How... how did you make it here? The guards...
  • Laby: They just passed by! Who are you?
  • Estranged Lord: Who am I...? I am... was... the Lord of this land.
  • Mao: The Lord? But I thought the previous Lord ran away?
  • Estranged Lord: No, I was imprisoned here, removed with force by Nenya and his men.
  • Estranged Lord: I wasn't strong enough to defend myself... Now I waste away in this dungeon... But tell me, what makes you come to this dangerous place?
  • Laby: Nenya took Calonne away. So we came to take him back.
  • Estranged Lord: I see... But for two people to handle such an immense task... Perhaps you should wait until the Capital sends the Royal Army for support?
  • Mao: ... Unfortunately, that's unlikely to happen.
  • Estranged Lord: What do you mean?
  • Mao: Since you've been locked up, you probably don't know what's happening outside, but the Capital is not really capable of fulfilling all it's duties. It's been a long time since anyone came out here from the Capital.
  • Estranged Lord: Ah...
  • Estranged Lord: ... I don't know what I expected. Even before I was captured, the Capital wasn't doing well...
  • Estranged Lord: Then I reckon Nenya will dispose of me soon. Once he can be certain that no one is looking for me...
  • Estranged Lord: Am I to perish in this cell? Used by monsters, helpless?
  • Laby: Why so down? If it's because you're locked up, don't worry! Laby will get you out!
  • Estranged Lord: The head jailer is a terrifying beast. If you are captured she will surely take your life.
  • Estranged Lord: I've already been captured for too long. If you set me free, I will only be holding you back.
  • Estranged Lord: You've come here to save someone else. Don't mind me and do what you must.
  • Laby: Uhhh... Then Laby can protect you! Laby is strong! So it's nothing to...
  • Estranged Lord: I... thank you for the offer, but there are other villagers that have been captured here unfairly. Though I am no longer considered Lord of this land, how could I escape when my people are still in captivity?
  • Estranged Lord: I do not know how strong you are, but it's not feasible for you to protect all of us. Not unless all the monsters in this dungeon are defeated... So...
  • Laby: Stop talking like everything's over already! Lord can leave if I break this door, right?
  • Laby: Laby was stuck in one place for a long time too. It was long, and lonely, but Laby couldn't do anything...
  • Laby: Laby knows! Nobody likes to be stuck in one place. So tell Laby honestly! Does Lord really want to stay here?
  • Estranged Lord: I, I...
  • Estranged Lord: ... I want to leave. I want to stop monsters from terrorizing the people...!
  • Prison Guard: Over here! Intruders!
  • Estranged Lord: Ah... It's too late...
  • Laby: Mao, everyone will be safe if Laby beat all the furries, right?
  • Mao: Wait, are you...?
  • Laby: ......
  • Mao: Haa... why do I feel like I already know what's going to happen?
  • Estranged Lord: What are you...
  • Laby: Lord! Stay right there! After Laby beats them all up, Mao will let everyone out starting from you!
Quest Completion Dialogue
  • Laby: This! Is! The last one!
  • CRASH!
  • Mao: Laby, how are you feeling?
  • Laby: Mmhm! Laby is very very fine!
  • Laby: But... Sorry, Mao.
  • Mao: Huh? What for?
  • Laby: Laby didn't even ask Mao about saving Lord and villagers. Even though Mao said saving Calonne comes first...
  • Mao: What, you were worried about that?
  • Mao: Yeah, our goal is to save Gramps, but you saved all the others because you thought that was the right thing to do, right?
  • Mao: Trying to save other people is a bit different from trying to defeat all the bad guys and...
  • Mao: I'm trying to say I agree with what you did, dummy.
  • Laby: ... Yeah?
  • Mao: Yeah! So don't go all mopey on me for doing the right thing.
  • Laby: Hehee... Laby's really glad! Laby really like Mao, you know?
  • Mao: Yeah, yeah. I heard. But something worries me...
  • Laby: Eh? Did Laby forget something?
  • Mao: No, it's just... What the Lord said earlier... I get the feeling that the Head Jailer he mentioned is not going to be like the other monsters we've faced so far.
  • Laby: It's ok! Laby is going to win no matter what!
  • Mao: You dummy! Do you even understand how long you've been fighting? Even if you're strong, you're bound to get exhausted at some point!
  • Calonne: This voice... Mao?!
  • Mao: !! Gramps?!
  • Laby: Calonne!! We found Calonne!!
  • Calonne: How did you...?! Why are you here?! Don't you understand how dangerous this place is?
  • Mao: Isn't it obvious? We're here to save you! Hold on, I'll let you out.
  • Calonne: Wait, Mao!
  • Beeeeep-
  • Mao: An... Alarm!? Gramps, are you ok?
  • Calonne: No! I am not! I thought the guards were oddly busy, but I never imagined... For El's sakes! What are you doing here!
  • Calonne: The alarm is already activated, so there's no time. You have to escape before she comes!
  • Laby: She? Are you talking about the Head Jailer?

Description

Lab and Mao finally find Calonne, but is stopped by Deborah, who is guarding the prison.
Did they know each other in the past? There are a lot of feelings unsaid, as they mock each other.

Quest Acceptance Dialogue
  • Head Jailer Deborah: I don't remember giving you visitation rights, Calonne.
  • Calonne: Deborah...!!
  • Head Jailer Deborah: What's this? Human cubs? I did hear you were playing house with a little girl. Oh, how the noble has fallen...
  • Calonne: ... I imagine mine's still a nobler life than of a beast wagging its tail, eager to serve anyone.
  • Head Jailer Deborah: Grr... You pompous little...!
  • Laby: (Erm... Laby's glad Calonne isn't friends with the monsters here...)
  • Laby: (But they sound like they know each other from before...)
  • Head Jailer Deborah: Hmph, what good is a master when you don't even know if they're dead or alive? If she is alive, she shouldn't have left us to fend for ourselves!
  • Head Jailer Deborah: But perhaps that was to be expected. No sane demon would have thought to establish a trading relationship with humans. To think, I used to serve someone like that as my Lord... pathetic.
  • Calonne: ... Back when you left... I could sympathize with your decision. But it seems you've left, not because of endless waiting, but because you were enticed by a snake.
  • Calonne: Do you not care about your honor as the White-Ghost Army?!
  • Head Jailer Deborah: Grrrr... Shut up! You don't know what you're talking about.
  • Head Jailer Deborah: For your insolence, I will crush your human cub and you won't be able to do anything but watch! I'll kill you after so you can meet your beloved Lord in the afterlife!
Quest Completion Dialogue
  • CRASH!!
  • Head Jailer Deborah: How... did I lose... to a mere human cub...
  • Laby: Mmmk... Now that the head fluff ball is defeated, everyone can leave, right?
  • Laby: Huh? What's wrong, Calonne?
  • Calonne: Pardon me, but I'd like some time along with her, I wish to talk to her for a bit.
  • Head Jailer Deborah: Grr... Don't pity me...
  • Head Jailer Deborah: Perhaps, as her trusted engineer, it was easy for you to believe in our lord, but for a mere soldier...
  • Calonne: No, our Lord believed in you. She wouldn't have entrusted just anyone to handle the communications with Elrios.
  • Head Jailer Deborah: ......
  • Head Jailer Deborah: Do you still believe our Lord is alive...? That she didn't just abandon us?
  • Calonne: Of course. Aren't you still here in Elrios because you believed she would come back to us?
  • Head Jailer Deborah: A peaceful harmony between humans and demons... Do you still believe in that fairy tale?
  • Calonne: It's not just a fairy tale. It's our dream after all.
  • Calonne: And... Living here made me realize, it doesn't have to be just a dream.
  • Head Jailer Deborah: Hmph. You're growing old and senile if you think it's possible for us to...
  • Mao: Gramps.
  • Head Jailer Deborah: ...!
  • Mao: People are waiting for us to free them. We should go now.
  • Calonne: Alright, I've already said everything I wanted to say. Let us go then.
  • Mao: I was thinking... Since Nenya has monsters as his soldiers, even if we set everyone in the prison free, I don't think it will resolve the core problem.
  • Laby: Laby thinks so too! Nenya guy is super suspicious.
  • Calonne: (I thought she was an odd one, but I never expected she would defeat Deborah...)
  • Mao: Gramps?
  • Calonne: Ahem. There's something I need to tell you Mao. I'm sorry I never told you before, but as you may suspect from my conversation with Deborah, I...
  • Mao: If you want to tell me you're a monster, and that Head Jailer and you used to be buddies, that can wait. That's not what's important right now.
  • Calonne: Not... important?
  • Mao: Laby, I'm really thankful for your help to save Gramps, but... I can't let Nenya get away with what he's done.
  • Laby: Uh huh. Laby agree.
  • Laby: But Mao wanted to rescue Calonne safely. Is it really ok for Laby to go teach Nenya a lesson?
  • Mao: It really should be about whether or not you're ok. I mean, I can open doors for you, but you're the one who has to fight.
  • Calonne: Nenya has any soldier, and they're strong. You may have to fight with every soldier you've seen so far.
  • Laby: It might have been difficult for just Laby, but Laby has all of you now! Nisha, Mao, and Calonne!
  • Laby: We can do this, because mao and Calonne have amazing abilities different from Laby's, right?
  • Calonne: Ha. Cheeky brat.
  • Calonne: If yo manage to defeat Nenya, then the soldiers under him won't be able to do much. Then the fact that we're so deep within Lord's Keep will serve as our advantage.
  • Mao: Then it's decided?
  • Laby: Yup! Let's go teach Nenya a lesson!

  • Head Jailer Deborah: ... Calling him Gramps, huh.
  • Head Jailer Deborah: Perhaps she wasn't wrong after all...
  • Head Jailer Deborah: My Lord... Aegirp.

Description

After saving the Lord and the villagers, Laby heads to the top most floor to confront Nenya.
The culprit lies beyond the enemy guards that block the way.

Quest Acceptance Dialogue
  • Estranged Lord: Did you truly defeat all the monsters...? Incredible!
  • Estranged Lord: To tell you the truth, I still had my doubts when you left. I apologize, I held so little faith in you.
  • Mao: Well... That's normal, right?
  • Laby: Ahem! Laby told you so!
  • Estranged Lord: I've learned a lot form you. I had given up without even trying, thinking it impossible for humans to win against monsters, but...
  • Estranged Lord: Now I know anything is possible. It's thanks to you that I was able to think that way.
  • Laby: Hehee, Laby's glad Lord is happy now!
  • Calonne: What will you do now? Though Laby defeated all the monsters in here, there's still a lot of soldiers outside.
  • Estranged Lord: I've already received enough help from you. Now it's time for use to fight our own battles.
  • Estranged Lord: Although they may be low in spirit, the people of this village together to save their home. As long as they see hope, we will be able to unite once more.
  • Mao: I agree. Once they know you're safe, and that it was all a misunderstanding, everyone will surely come together!
  • Estranged Lord: According to the guards, Nenya resides in the top most floor. I had heard that in emergency situations, all guards gather to protect him.
  • Calonne: That's good to know. Thank you.
  • Estranged Lord: It's nothing compared to what you've done for us. Please, be careful.
  • Laby: Thank you! Laby hopes next time we meet, we'll both be under the sky!
Quest Completion Dialogue
  • Calonne: Before we go ahead, let us go over what we've learned so far. I also have something else to inform you.
  • Calonne: According to what I've heard, Nenya is one of the demons that invaded the Capital several years ago.
  • Mao: Demon? Is that the same thing as monsters?
  • Calonne: Yes. In other lands, such a Lurensia and southern Fluone, certain monsters are called demons.
  • Laby: (Oh! That makes sense! They were the same ones that attacked Velder!)
  • Calonne: Initially, they invaded the Northern Empire for a certain object, but for some reason, Nenya remained here.
  • Calonne: I heard he was gathering an army, which could only mean he is planning on a full-on invasion.
  • Mao: Seriously? Even though the Empire doesn't have a central force right now, there's no way he can conquer the entire land with his army...
  • Mao: Is that why he didn't want the villagers to leave? To prevent neighboring families with powerful guardian spirits from intervening?
  • Calonne: Very good. His army maybe big enough to take control of this land, but it's definitely not enough to swallow up all of Northern Empire.
  • Calonne: ... That's why Nenya brought me here.
  • Laby: Why? Is Calonne super strong and powerful?
  • Calonne: It's not my power he's interested in, Nenya wants...
  • Crash!!
  • Lord's Keep Captain Guard: Ugh... You made it all the way here... But I will make this your grave!!
  • Laby: You're that guy we saw earlier that talks too much!
  • Mao: It looks like all the soldiers were gathered here. That must mean Nenya is just beyond this point!
  • Lord's Keep Captain Guard: I won't allow you to see even a single hair on Lord Nenya's head!! Haaa!! (gathering energy)
  • Laby: Laby thinks you need to learn when to give up! Let's do this, Nisha!

Quest Acceptance Dialogue
  • Mao: Alright!! Looks like we defeated everyone!
  • Laby: Phew, they kept on coming! Did Laby get them all?
  • Mao: Laby, when did you get so good at fighting?! I mean, you did fight a lot, but you're so much stronger than before!
  • Laby: hehee, Laby learns quickly! Teacher said so too!
  • Mao: Haha, I don't think it's just learning quickly, it's really amazing!
  • Calonne: Looks like the battle's yet to be over. There are more demons coming this way...

  • Calonne: !! Wait, is that...?
  • Head Jailer Deborah: Grrrrr...
  • Calonne: Deborah... Did our conversation mean nothing to you...?
  • Laby: Wait, Calonne! Something's different!
  • Mao: I don't think she comprehends what we're saying!
  • Calonne: Hm? Could it be, she's under Nenya's influence?
  • Head Jailer Deborah: Kuuaaaah!!
  • Laby: Eh, Ehhh? What should Laby do?? Hit her? Hit her????

  • Head Jailer Deborah: Grrr... You again...
  • Laby: Ohhh. She's back!
  • Calonne: Deborah, what's going on? How did you end up under Nenya's control?
  • Head Jailer Deborah: ... Hmph, is it so surprising that he would put a collar on his guard dog to gain control?
  • Calonne: A control device? You didn't...!
  • Head Jailer Deborah: ... Injecting demonic energy to control others is Nenya's specialty. My soldiers and I all accepted his demonic energy to show our loyalty.
  • Head Jailer Deborah: We cannot go against his orders unless he lets us go... or dies.
  • Calonne: Why... Why would you subject yourself to this...?
  • Head Jailer Deborah: Perhpas... We were that desperate. Huhuhu, but I've seen you lose your cool for the first time, so maybe it wasn't that bad of a deal.
  • Calonne: How foolish...
  • Head Jailer Deborah: You are now at the highest floor of Lord's Keep. Nenya's room is right ahead.
  • Head Jailer Deborah: He is different from those you've come across so far. He's far more clever... cunning. You may lose everything, if you're not careful.
  • Laby: No worries! Laby is really strong!!
  • Head Jailer Deborah: Huhu... You remind me of someone. Someone I respected.
  • Head Jailer Deborah: ... I must rest. I wish you luck, strange warrior...

  • Laby: Whoa... It's so big and shiny in here!!
  • Mao: I can't believe it... is this where all our tax money went into?!!
  • Laby: Mao, wait. There's somebody there!
  • ???: Oh? A visitor? I apologize if our welcoming was a bit... unconventional.
  • Laby: Are you... Nenya?
  • Nenya: Yes, I am the lord of this land, Nenya.
  • Nenya: And Calonne! Came to visit me out of your own record? Can I expect a positive response from you, then?
  • Calonne: My answer is always going to be the same. The energy needed to create a portal is not something that you can provide!
  • Calonne: Even if it were possible, I will not help you to satisfy your petty ambition!
  • Nenya: Well, that's no reason for you to get all worked up. Perhaps you were listening to the guard dog barking outside for too long.
  • Nenya: The Lord you followed is long dead, and I just want to make life better for us. We can create our home here, where there's plenty of food and resources. What possibly could you object to?
  • Calonne: My Lord would not have died to easily.
  • Nenya: Calonne, Calonne. I heard you were quite intelligent, but I guess your stupid beastly origin is showing through. I already told you...
  • Nenya: Then White-Ghost King has already been killed, ripped to pieces by Lord Barkat and Commander Berthe!!
  • Calonne: You're the foolish one if you believe Barkat and Berthe are capable of harming my Lord. She will come back, don't think their underhanded tricks can keep her away forever...!
  • Calonne: Do you truly think you can take over these lands with your 'army'? Your arrogance knows no bounds!
  • Nenya: But that 'Army' of mine helped me take over this village and capture you.
  • Nenya: It's only this village for now, but once the portal is open, I can command the entire demon army to take over all the land!
  • Nenya: And there's no reason to fear a king that's as good as dead.
  • Calonne: (... As good as dead? I knew it, she's still alive...!)

Nenya captures Mao as hostage and forces Calonne to choose.
Mao's words stop Calonne from making a certain choice.

Quest Acceptance Dialogue
  • Nenya: It's strange, why didn't the Demon King invade Elrios before? It would have been so easy with the four rulers at his side...
  • Nenya: Oh wait, but the White-Ghost King opened a portal to invade little by little, didn't she? It wasn't a bad idea, I'm surprised a beast came up with it.
  • Nenya: Although, it was all sow and no results. Did you hear about what Commander Ran had accomplished? Really, there's no helping simple-minded beasts.
  • Calonne: You have no right to insult her deeds! We were establishing a peaceful relationship. My Lord is different from those other brutes who's only capable of using violence to accomplish anything!
  • Nenya: Yeah, yeah. But isn't that what demons do? There's a reason for our 'violent, brutish' nature.
  • Mao: Ah!!
  • Calonne: M, Mao?! Nenya, you dare...!
  • Laby: Mao!! What are you doing! Give Mao back!!
  • Nenya: Because it's so easy to get things that way! Now Calonne, if you don't want me to snap this little girl's neck, you'll have to think very carefully using that genius head of yours.
  • Nenya: Though I guess the answer I want is obvious! Hahaha!!
  • Laby: Leave Mao alone!! You... You baldy!!
  • Nenya: Oh...? Are you the little girl, going around defeating my troops? If you want her alive, perhaps you should beg Calonne to make me a portal too! Heheheh...
Quest Completion Dialogue
  • Laby: You're not playing fair!!
  • Nenya: Fair? Fairness is for the ignorant. Now I'll ask you one last time, Calonne.
  • Nenya: Shall I kill her? Or shall I let her live?
  • Calonne: ......
  • Mao: N... No... Gramps... Don't listen to... Ugh!!
  • Calonne: ...!! Mao!
  • Mao: He'll just... use you... and kill everyone anyway...!!
  • Laby: But we can't lose you, Mao!
  • Calonne: ... Mao is right.
  • Laby: Calonne...? What are you saying!
  • Calonne: If I create a portal for Nenya, there's no telling what he would do to the villagers. To this entire continent.
  • Calonne: The reason why I began to build portals was not to harm others, but to find a way to live peacefully together...!
  • Laby: Calonne...
  • Calonne: So my answer is still the same. I will never bow down to your will!
  • Nenya: ... Is that so...?
  • BOOOM!!
  • Laby: ...!!
  • Calonne: No, Mao!!
  • Nenya: Looks like negotiation is over. I must have lived with humans longer than I thought, asking nicely instead of doing things by force.
  • Calonne: Mao! Please child, wake up. Mao!!
  • Laby: Mao...?
  • Laby: (... What's going on? Laby doesn't feel anything.)
  • Laby: (Mao is really hurt, but it's weird. Laby doesn't understand what this emotion is.)
  • Laby: (It feels empty again... Like earlier. Why is it like that? Calonne looks like he's really hurt.)
  • Laby: (Why... Can't Laby be like that? Something's weird...)
  • Laby: (Not feeling anything even though Mao is hurt is... weird, it's bad.)
  • Laby: (It happened before. In the forest when...)
  • Nisha: (......)
  • Laby: ... Nisha...?

  • Bellonde: Haha, you're right. Now that you've left the forest, you will continue to encounter more things that're confusing and hard.
  • Bellonde: How about this, Laby. If you feel like everything is too much, too confusion, you can focus on what's right in front of you, and start from there.
  • Bellonde: Most things are tangled together like thread. If you untangle one, everything else follows.
  • Laby: What's in front of Laby right now...
  • Laby: What Laby must do...!
  • Calonne: Kugh...!
  • Nenya: Is that it? Don't worry, when you fall, I'll make good use of your knowledge! Kuhahahaha!
  • Laby: Laby will not let you bully Laby's friend any more!!
  • Calonne: Laby!? No... If you... come in contact with this kind of demonic energy...!
  • Nenya: Hahaha!! She's like a moth to a flame!
  • Nenya: ... Hm?
  • Nenya: What...?! My demonic energy... Did nothing??
  • Laby: Laby is really angry now! You better watch out!
Quest Completion Dialogue
  • Nenya: My ambition... stopped my a mere child...?
  • Calonne: I can't believe it... She really defeated Nenya...
  • Calonne: And she wasn't influenced by the demonic energy... Is that even possible?
  • Laby: Calonne!! Are you ok? How's Mao...?
  • Calonne: ... She's fine. It seems the machine worked as intended. She should wake up soon.
  • Laby: ...!! Uuuaaahh....
  • Laby: Laby's so glaaad. Thanks goodness!!
  • Calonne: Thank you for protecting Mao, Laby.
  • Laby: Of course! Mao, and Calonne too! You're both Laby's friend!
  • Calonne: ... Laby, there's something I wanted to ask you since we've met.
  • Laby: Huh? What is it?
  • Calonne: Are you... A demon?
  • Laby: A demon? ... That's Calonne and Nenya, though.
  • Calonne: Any normal human would have gone insane when exposed to that kind of demonic energy. Even lower demons like I would have gone berserk.
  • Calonne: The fact that you weren't influenced by Nenya's demonic energy seems to suggest that you're a higher demon.
  • Calonne: But the energy I sense from you is different from demonic energy. And it's very faint... I don't think it could have protected you from Nenya's demonic energy.
  • Laby: Energy from Laby? It's not demonic energy? Does that mean Laby's not a demon?
  • Calonne: It may be hard to pin-point precisely what you are, but everyone had their origins. For example, I'm Calonne, Mao's family, but I am originally a demon...
  • Calonne: Laby, do you know your roots?
  • Laby: ... No... Laby started this journey to find out who Laby is.
  • Laby: Laby was in a forest for a very long time. Somebody kept whispering that Laby shouldn't leave.
  • Calonne: A spell similar to Nenya's...? But what could be the reason for her to be trapped in this far away land without her memories...?
  • Laby: Mmhm! Now Laby knows what to do!
  • Calonne: Hm? What do you mean?
  • Laby: Laby was going to wait for teacher to come find Laby, but Laby doesn't want to wait any longer!
  • Laby: Calonne, there's something important that Laby forgot. If Laby finds out what it is, then laby can find out what Laby's 'origin' is.
  • Laby: And Laby gets the feeling that this 'Sage' that teacher talked about would know what Laby is, or tell Laby what Laby forgot.
  • Laby: So Calonne, do you know where Elrianode is?

Description

Laby decides not to wait and says goodbye to Mao and Calonne.

Quest Completion Dialogue
  • Mao: Are you really leaving?
  • Laby: Uh huh! You look healthy Mao! Laby's glad.
  • Mao: I wasn't that injured to begin with, Gramps was just being overly fussy.
  • Calonne: Hmhm! Laby, here's the item you've requested. It has all the functions we've discussed, so use it when it's necessary.
  • Laby: Is this the compass that will show Laby how to get to Elrianode?
  • Calonne: Yes, but more precisely, it's a compass that directs you to 'Somewhere that holds strange energy'.
  • Calonne: I suspect the appearance of this ancient city is the reason why Nenya was so anxious to expand his troops recently.
  • Mao: Why? What does that city have to do with anything?
  • Calonne: I heard it holds extraordinary power. It probably made Nenya uneasy since it's not that far from here.
  • Calonne: Be careful, Laby. I expect it's going to be a dangerous journey, but even once you arrive, do not let your guard down.
  • Laby: Got it! Thanks, Calonne!
  • Laby: What are you going to do, now?
  • Mao: We'll start repairing all the damages done by Nenya and his troops. There was a lot of things to fix last time we've visited.
  • Laby: What about the furries? Are they still causing trouble?
  • Calonne: Haha, they're behaving themselves now. They're not malicious by nature, but I'll watch over them and make sure they don't cause trouble.
  • Mao: Even though we've still got ways to go, we're heading towards the right direction. Everyone's much happier, and there's much to look forward to.
  • Mao: It's all thanks to you, Laby.
  • Laby: Thanks to... Laby?
  • Mao: You're not actually asking why, are you? You're the one that defeated Nenya!
  • Mao: Everyone's thankful for you. We all owe you, me, Gramps, and everyone else in this village.
  • Mao: ... You'll come back, won't you?
  • Laby: Of course! Once Laby knows who Laby is, Mao will be the first to know!
  • Laby: Mm... But what if Laby is something really really weird?
  • Mao: Does it matter? I already live with a demon.
  • Calonne: Hm....
  • Mao: Anyway, it really doesn't matter to me what you are. It's alright if you're a demon like Gramps, or even something completely different.
  • Mao: Because you're Laby, my friend who helped me when I most needed help.
  • Laby: Mao...
  • Mao: I hope you do manage to find your teacher. I'm sure he's looking for you, just like you're looking for him.
  • Laby: Yeah!! Thanks Mao.
  • Mao: Bye, Laby. We'll be waiting for you to come back.
