- [Elysion Village]
- Bernard: Hm... This is bad. This is really bad. Hmm...
- Elsword: Hey, Mister! Are you the Nasod in charge of this village?
- Bernard: Hmm...? You are...?!
- Bernard: Ah, are you part of the Atlas army? I heard the message but I didn't think you would get here so soon...!
- Add: (Hoh, it seems Eve's commands are working in this village... We're being recognized as Atlas troops... Keukeuk, how exciting!)
- Ara: It's not that, we are...
- Rena: (Shh! We're being recognized as Atlas troops thanks to Eve!)
- Ara: (I, I see...! I almost made a mistake!)
- Bernard: Yes... Thanks for coming at a time like this! I am relieved... I am, the one who oversees the village.
- Chung: Bernard, can you tell us what the situation is?
- Bernard: Yes, you should also know... All this happened when the communication was cut off from Adrian's Palace.
- Eve: Adrian? Do you mean... Adrian, the Father of the Nasods?
- Bernard: That's right. That place over there in the far distance is his palace.
- Eve: Adrian... who went missing... built Elysion here...?
- Bernard: All schedules in our village are decided based on orders from the Palace...
- Bernard: But all orders have suddenly stopped. At first, I thought it was a temporary error... but even after time has passed, there was no order.
- Raven: Either something happened to the palace... or there's something blocking the signal...?
- Bernard: I'm afraid so. It's not just the palace. Even the guards around here are on high alert... It's highly possible something happened at the palace.
- Bernard: And... I'm not sure if this is related, but several Nasod scouts have gone missing.
- Lu: You mean you haven't even done anything yet?
- Bernard: The Nasods of this village are not allowed to move without orders from the Palace. I have no choice but to wait here...
- Bernard: Ahh... Of course, this village will be safe. It's been fine here... but strange incidents have been occurring...
- Elsword: Forget that, we're looking for Solace. Do you happen to know where he is?
- Bernard: Solace? Who is that? I've never heard such name...
- Elsword: You don't know...? But earlier, at the entrance...
- Eve: Stay calm, Elsword. First, we need more information on this place.
- Add: Missing Nasod scouts... Hey, is there some kind of defense system around here?
- Bernard: Right now there's a class one defense system activated near this village.
- Eve: Then... We might want to check the memories of the Nasods outside.
- Eve: We might figure out what the issue is if we can see what caused the defense system to activate.
- Add: Then we can look at the Nasod memory I copied earlier. Kuhuhu!
- Eve: ... What? When did you do this?
- Add: ...
- Lu: Oh ho, he's well prepared. Something to aspire towards, don't you think, Ciel?
- Ciel: ... Lu, am I not enough as I am right now?
- Lu: Oh ho ho! I'm saying you can always improve as my butler!
- Ciel: If that is your wish... We can start from your daily food intake. You've been eating a lot of sugar, so I think you should cut down on cookies.
- Lu: Whaat...? No! I've changed my mind! You're fine just the way you are, Ciel!
- Rena: Those two seem really close.
- Eve: In any case... I will read the memory.
- Eve: ... Ah, I never thought something like this would happen...
- Elesis: Why? What is it?
- Eve: Currently, Adrian's Palace is blocked from any outside contact because of a barrier.
- Bernard: A barrier... Adrian... What happened to Adrian?!
- Eve: I do not know. But the energy waves from the barrier... It matches the energy responsible for moving the statue as the entrance.
- Raven: It seems like Solace is responsible for creating a barrier around the Palace...
- Eve: One more thing, it's the Nasod guards from that palace that have been abducting the Nasod scouts.
- Aisha: How did you know this way happening? You would have found out about this if you just put together a group to scout the area!
- Bernard: That's impossible... Without the Palace's orders, our code forces us to stay ehre.
- Elsword: Err... These guys are third generation? They only follow orders like the Nasods from Elrios.
- Eve: ... Why would he put such limitation...
- Bernard: Hmmm... We can rescue the captured Nasods and gather information from them.
- Bernard: First... Can you send this information to Durenda, the officer in charge of Hernacyd, the Nasod troops stationed in the village? She might be able to figure something out.
- Eve: I see, we'll look for her immediately.
