Description

Noah finally meets the El Masters in El Tower. The Water Master looks at the boy without wavering.

Quest Acceptance Dialogue
  • Denif: ... The Landars will be staying here for a while. Gaia, Artea, could you look for a place where they can stay?
  • Gaia: How about the gardens near El Tower? There should be an open area nearby.
  • Artea: Don't you think it could get too crowded? From my understanding, there will be others joining soon. It might be better to find a place outside the Tower even if it's further away...
  • Denif: That's a reasonable assessment. But you will have to put more care in finding a place, since many places are unstable due to the rift outside the Tower. I will leave that in your care.
  • Denif: Sigh, I already asked Ventus to find a place, but he's off somewhere...
  • Ventus: Denif! I'm back!
  • Denif: Ventus! Where were you?
  • Ventus: I had to leave to take care of an urgent, important matter.
  • Denif: I see Rosso and Darkmoon are here as well. You are back earlier than expected. Did you find anything useful?
  • Noah: .......
  • Gaia: Hm? Is he a Landar as well?
  • Noah: ... Nice to meet you. My name is Noah Ebalon.
  • Gaia: Oh, nice to meet you. I am the Earth Master, Gaia...
  • Gaia: Wait, sorry? Did you say Ebalon...?
  • Denif: The younger brother?
  • Denif: ... Yes, you do look alike.
  • Denif: ... It seems we have a lot to talk about, so come inside. Artea, I apolotize, but I must take Gaia. Sasha will be back soon, so please find a place with her when she comes back.
  • Artea: Yes. Leave it to me.
  • Denif: Darkmoon, we need you as well.
  • Darkmoon: Yes.
  • Ventus: ... I thought we were in for a long explanation, but he's taking this surprisingly well.
  • Gaia: It seems that way...? I'm slightly embarrassed since it looks like I'm the only one who's in shock.
  • Gaia: Come to think of it, I did hear that the second son of the Ebalon family was suffering from a terminal illness. Are you perhaps...
  • Rosso: Blah blah, shut up and go inside. We're not going to learn anything by standing around here.
Quest Completion Dialogue
  • Ebalon: ... ... ... ...
  • Denif: Who's there?
  • Ebalon: ... listen to the prayers of your faithful servant...
  • Ebalon: ... Ah.
  • Ebalon: Good morrow, Master Denif. I didn't expect to see you here so early.
  • Denif: I could say the same for you. What are you doing here in the chapel so early? Are you feeling well?
  • Ebalon: Yes. I am feeling better, thanks to your consideration. I'm afraid my absence has burdened all of you.
  • Denif: There's no need to overexert yourself. Last battle was quite vicious.
  • Ebalon: Thank you for your concern. But that's precisely the reason why I felt the need to come to the chapel.
  • Ebalon: ... Two days ago, I had to use a powerful spell... However, I can't help but wonder if that was truly necessary, even though it was to protect the El.
  • Ebalon: Will the Goddess truly forgive that her priest has committed such a deed?
  • Denif: Are you here for a confession?
  • Ebalon: ... I do not know. Why is the Order after the El? They must be ordinary people as well, who finds joy in everyday life granted by the Goddess, such as baking bread and brewing beer...
  • Ebalon: I suppose that is why I came here to pray. I fear I lack the insight to understand them.
  • Ebalon: To chase the scent of greed and follow sin with thine eyes. Oh Goddess, blind me and bestow me a mind's eye that can distinguish right from wrong.
  • Ebalon: ... Perhaps my lack of understanding is my sin.
  • Ebalon: So I prayed for them. May they find the blessing of the Goddess and rest when they need it.
  • Ebalon: May they realize the presence of the Goddess that is with them every moment of their lives...
  • Denif: ... I see. So the Moon Master we knew, was never Harque Ebalon.
  • Noah: You really didn't find anything suspicious?
  • Denif: He fulfilled his duty just like other Masters. He led ceremonies, prayers, and trained hard, preparing for enemies' invasions.
  • Gaia: His devotion to the Goddess, also seemed true.
  • Noah: ... I thought El Masters' mission was to protect the El.
  • Denif: If you are saying we failed in fulfilling our duties, it will be a fair statement.
  • Ventus: We did stay on guard, especially with the rumors surrounding the Moon Master.
  • Ventus: I remember clearly that there were rumors how the Moon Master might not be nominated from the Ebalon family this time, because he was found lacking in qualification.
  • Ventus: Though in the end, the candidate from the Ebalon family was selected.
  • Denif: I understand what you are trying to say. You believe we should have noticed that the Moon Master was an imposter all along and stopped him.
  • Denif: However, even if we had known the true identity of the Moon Master, it's unlikely that we would have been able to stop him in time.
  • Noah: What do you mean?
  • Ventus: The responsibility of selecting the Master candidate and testing them, lies solely with the royal church of the Elrian Kingdom. Masters are not allowed to interfere in the process.
  • Ventus: If they do, they may be viewed as challenging the royal authorities.
  • Noah: That's ridiculous. For that pathetic reason...!
  • Ventus: I won't call it 'pathetic'. From the royal family's perspective, Masters pose a threat. They are the closest to the El, the source of power, and are highly trained.
  • Rosso: They were scared for the slight possibility of Masters joining hands with the nobles to revolt against the royal family.
  • Gaia: Masters must cut their ties with their family, and they are forbidden from handling the matters of the kingdom, unless the matter specifically pertains to the El.
  • Gaia: I heard that plays a significant part in why there are so many restrictions on the Masters, despite them being well-respected...
  • Ventus: In other words, the moment we become Masters, our arms and legs are essentially chopped off. At least in the political sense.
  • Rosso: There's one exception. If the appointed Master neglects his duty, or is found lacking in qualification, other Masters can object to the selection.
  • Rosso: ... And there was nothing wrong with him on the surface. Though he was often useless because he was so weak.
  • Ventus: Rosso received the most help by the way.
  • Rosso: Shut up.
  • Denif: He did have trouble because of his constitution, but he was a natural at using both healing and dark magic. He proved his worth as the Moon Master.
  • Noah: ... And that's the irony, isn't it? Harque couldn't tolerate the dark element. He couldn't use the dark magic no matter how hard he tried.
  • Noah: The fact that he could use dark magic so freely should have been proof in and of itself that he was an imposter...
  • Rosso: Doesn't it work the other way as well? We have no proof that you're telling the truth.
  • Rosso: And what you said, it's something an Order member would know as well, isn't it?
  • Denif: But the claim that the Moon Master was an imposter from the start actually holds merit.
  • Ventus: There was controversy that the candidate from the Ebalon family lacked qualification for several years. And the actions of the Ebalon family seemed to support the rumors.
  • Ventus: In the end, he was selected as the successor, and we found no problem with his abilities. I thought he might have gone through special training...
  • Ventus: But with all the pieces laid out like this, this seems to be more convincing.
  • Darkmoon: .......
  • Darkmoon: ... Um, the pendant that you've mentioned... May I take a look?
  • Darkmoon: If the one who imbued its power is truly the successor of the Moon, I can sense it.
  • Ventus: Oh? I did notice you were training hard since the El Search Party left, but I didn't realize you were capable of something like that?
  • Denif: Please do so, Darkmoon.
  • Darkmoon: Alright. I'll try...

Description

Thanks to Darkmoon, Noah was able to confirm his identity, and was given permission to stay in Elrianode. Unlike Noah, who feels relieved, Clamor is acting strange...

Quest Acceptance Dialogue
  • Darkmoon: ... I have checked it over. This pendant was definitely made by the successor of the Moon.
  • Noah: (The pendant again... Even now, I always end up receiving help from Harque.)
  • Rosso: .......
  • Denif: Then let's go over what we've learned so far. First, we have confirmed your identity.
  • Denif: A member of the Landar family explained how you helped in finding the Order member, and that you have taken an item with the mark of the Order in that process.
  • Noah: Yuria...
  • Denif: Furthermore, you have information that anyone outside the family with El Masters would not be privy to. As such...
  • Denif: Noah Ebalon, we grant you permission to stay in Elrianode.
  • Denif: But all information you find on the Order must be shared with us. In addition, any action suspected of hiding or destroying information will be penalized.
  • Denif: Any objections?
  • Rosso: ... Damn it. I knew it will turn out this way!
  • Rosso: Hey, you! You better not be up to anything!
  • Noah: ... Hmph.
Quest Completion Dialogue
  • Noah: ... It's settled. Thankfully, the Water Master was reasonable. I don't think we should trust him entirely though.
  • Clamor: .......
  • Noah: Clamor? Now that we're at El Tower, let's ask the sage if there's a way to get your body back.
  • Clamor: No, it's fine. I can stay this way.
  • Noah: ... You told me that form is inconvenient for you.
  • Clamor: Nope! Not at all! I don't have to walk, there's no one to bother me...
  • Noah: You're lying. What's going on? You've been acting strange ever since we arrived in Elrianode. And you weren't saying anything earlier... Is it because of the Fire Master?
  • Rosso: What about me?
  • Noah: ... Sigh. When did you get here? Are you going to bother me about my identity. Again?
  • Rosso: Never mind that. What are you planning on doing now?
  • Noah: I was going to continue the investigation of the Order that you interrupted.
  • Ventus: Then are you headed to the castle? Junior, did the demon engineer head back?
  • Gaia: Calonne wanted to return to Northern Empire to inform someone. I did not accompany him because he used the portal, but I did see him off.
  • Clamor: Lady Spirit, there's a demon in the castle?
  • Lincy: Yup. The El Search Party recently left for the Demon Realm. The demon engineer that helped came from Northern Empire. Though it seems he's not here right now.
  • Rosso: Hey you, don't go broadcasting all our information.
  • Ventus: We know they're not enemies now, Rosso. Don't be upset. If you continue to act like that, they might find you suspicious.
  • Rosso: I didn't do anything!
  • Clamor: Lady Spirit, it sounded like there's an equipment that allows one to travel through dimensions underneath the castle... Am I understanding this correctly?
  • Lincy: Yes. There's a lab made by Debrians.
  • Clamor: Debrians...?
  • Noah: This is the first time I've heard there's something like that underneath the castle. Clamor, do you know anything?
  • Clamor: Nope. First time for me too. But I really want to check it out if it's true.
  • Rosso: ... If he's going, I'll go as well. Who knows what he'll do if we leave him unsupervised.
  • Ventus: Hear that? Noah, right? You're injured, so it's probably for the best to take Rosso. He may seem grumpy, but he should work fine as a bodyguard.
  • Rosso: Who said anything about being a bodyguard? I'm following to keep an eye on him!
  • Gaia: I can accompany him instead...
  • Ventus: No need, Junior. Now, now, Rosso, no need to pout. Let's be adults here, and use our big words to settle your differences.
  • Rosso: Stop mocking me, and get lost!
  • Darkmoon: Come back safe. Don't push yourself too hard.

Clamor's Suspicion
{{
Quest Acceptance Prerequisites Objectives
  • Complete the What Debrians Left Behind story quest
Description

Rosso doesn't want other to know what happened to him. Clamor, after seeing the facilities first-hand, is pondering about the past.

Quest Acceptance Dialogue
  • Rosso: .......
  • Noah: ....... Why aren't you asking anything?
  • Rosso: What.
  • Noah: The reason why you followed me... it's because the experiment isn't it? You wanted to ask me something.
  • Clamor: .......
  • Rosso: ... What did you see?
  • Noah: Experiments. The spy from the Order was planning on spreading something that mutates living things using the facilities there.
  • Rosso: ... The Seed of Life. I heard the ones who attacked El Tower also used something similar.
  • Noah: Why did the Order attack El Tower?
  • Rosso: I don't know how he knew, but he stole the Primal El from the sanctum. He tried to fuse it with the Dark El to attack El Tower, but the El Search Party sent him flying.
  • Clamor: (The El Search Party again...)
  • Rosso: ... Enough about that, you better not say anything to others. About the experiment, or the manor.
  • Noah: I wasn't planning to. If I were, I would have revealed everything earlier.
  • Noah: Did you answer my question because you were afraid I would reveal everything?
  • Rosso: Shut up. I said I was keeping watch.
  • Noah: (... He's not very truthful.)
  • Noah: I didn't expect a place like this could exist underneath the castle...
  • Clamor: The research done here looks very advanced. Debrians weren't this impressive back in my day.
  • Clamor: I wonder how the machines lying over there functioned? Debrians tried to build humanoid machines before, but all they managed to do was stumble a couple of steps before falling.
  • Noah: But why would they create a lab underneath the castle?
  • Clamor: I told you before, right? Elrian royal family used to subtly support Debrians, and would look after them.
  • Clamor: Back then, I just thought they were using Debrians as a chess piece to keep the monarchy strong...
  • Clamor: But looking at this... It makes me suspect they might have had something specific in mind.
  • Noah: .......
  • Rosso: ... What are you looking at.
  • Noah: Do you know anything?
  • Rosso: What makes you think I'd tell you if I do.
  • Noah: So you don't. Why are you walking so far away anyway?
  • Rosso: It's because I find it annoying that you're mumbling to yourself when there's no one responding back. Got a problem?
  • Noah: (I swear I told him about Clamor already...)
  • Rosso: You're walking too slow. I'm going ahead if you're going to take your time by talking to yourself. I don't care if you are left behind.
Quest Completion Dialogue
  • Noah: Pant... pant, ah...
  • Rosso: Weakling... Here. This is the portal they used.
  • Rosso: The demon was working on it, so don't touch anything. You might mess it up.
  • Clamor: So something like this is possible... I can understand why Titania said we won't be able to find the Order's headquarters anywhere in Elrios.
  • Clamor: I think the Order's headquarters might be in the Demon Realm.
  • Noah: The Order's... headquarters? Why do you think it's in the Demon Realm?
  • Rosso: What are you talking about? How do you know where the Order'd headquarters is located?
  • Noah: ... I just heard about it. Here.
  • Noah: Clamor, can you explain in detail? Why do you think it's in the Demon Realm?
  • Clamor: Well... Don't get me wrong, but...
  • Clamor: I got an offer to join the Order once. Though I refused right away.
  • Rosso: What? Why would the Order recruit you?
  • Clamor: I don't know... Perhaps it's because I was a scholar of Seven Tower and they thought I'd be an easy target.
  • Clamor: Back then, the Order of Henir was a new religious organization. They were actively recruiting at the time.
  • Clamor: As I mentioned earlier... The gap between Elrians and those were not, were quite... significant.
  • Clamor: The Henir's Order used that sense of bereavement to their advantage. For me... they told me I was undervalued.
  • Noah: When they were recruiting you? Why would they say that?
  • Clamor: 'We are looking for remarkable individuals. We alone can recognize your true value... The reason why Debrians were able to enter Seven Tower is also because of our influence...'
  • Clamor: 'Your admittance as well. You should know better than anyone...' Something like that.
  • Clamor: They said they wanted to recruit me and have me join in their research, promising a great offer that I probably wouldn't receive even after I get a degree from Seven Tower.
  • Clamor: Honestly, it was tempting. If I didn't refuse right away, I would have seriously considered it.
  • Noah: ... Why did you refuse?
  • Clamor: It's embarrassing... But the biggest reason was my pride.
  • Clamor: Think about it. One day, someone pops out of nowhere, saying all that you've accomplished is not because of your own merit, but because you were lucky.
  • Clamor: No matter how hard you try, you won't be able to advance any further, and your current place is the best you can ever hope for. The only thing left it to go down.
  • Clamor: That's basically saying 'slap me, and I'll turn the other cheek for you' isn't it?
  • Clamor: What did they expect? That I'd grovel and say 'Thank you for recognizing I'm not a complete piece of trash! Where do I sign up?'
  • Noah: Titania said she found somewhere that recognized her worth. Are you saying that's how the Order recruits people?
  • Clamor: I didn't like it. What am I, used goods? 'There's a scratch. The quality isn't that great.' Treating me like my value would go down the more they pick at my weaknesses.
  • Clamor: Anyway, I got a bad feeling when I kicked them out, so I asked around. Turns out, I wasn't the only one to receive such an offer.
  • Rosso: What was the research that the Order was conducting?
  • Clamor: From what I heard... They were looking for a land where the power of the Goddess cannot reach, using Henir.
  • Rosso: Lunatics...
  • Clamor: I thought it wasn't feasible, but when I heard about the Demon Realm, it reminded me of that. That's why I wanted to come here.

Description

Perhpas it's the fatigue that built up, but Noah is acting strange after listening to Clamor's story.

Quest Completion Dialogue
  • Noah: (Ah... My head aches...)
  • Rosso: Anyway, do we really have to stand around and hold this like an idiot to talk to this weapon?
  • Noah: Yes.
  • Rosso: So annoying...
  • Rosso: Hey, don't just talk about things I know nothing about and explain this to me. Why exactly do you think the headquarters is located in the Demon Realm?
  • Clamor: First, Titania proclaimed that we won't find the Order's headquarters even if we search every corner of Elrios, both land and sea.
  • Clamor: Second, the Henir's Order is not that well known in this era. They are definitely not a small organization, considering they invented something like the Seed of Life, and attacked Elrianode.
  • Clamor: But they are still well hidden... Which means they might be located somewhere completely different.
  • Clamor: Third... There's something that Titania said... that reminded me of the Tower of Mirage.
  • Clamor: The Tower of Mirage is one of Seven Tower, where they studied the origin of the universe. The ones who first discovered the Demon Realm and the Ancient God, Henir were also the scholars of the Tower of Mirage.
  • Clamor: I'm not... so sure about this one. There's not much information on the Tower... other than the fact that the Tower disappeared like a mirage, just like its namesake.
  • Noah: An academic discovery, leading to the founding of Henir's Order?
  • Rosso: It would have been better if they never discovered it... So, are you saying the Tower is the Order's headquarters?
  • Clamor: I hope not... but I find that likely. To find another world where the power of the Goddess does not reach... You can't just conceive a goal like that without hearing something about it beforehand.
  • Clamor: It also makes sense why the Order wanted to recruit scholars of Seven Tower like me.
  • Clamor: Fourth, this portal underneath the castle. Unlike the reasons before, this actually proves the existence of another world. Didn't the El Search Party actually use it?
  • Noah: ... Why did the El Search Party go to the Demon Realm? They're the El Search Party, aren't they? You would think they would stay close to the El from their name.
  • Rosso: Tell me about it.
  • Noah: Huh?
  • Rosso: ... The Large El is not completely restored. Even now, it requires expending other energy to barely function.
  • Rosso: Based on information they got from the Order member that attacked El Tower, they decided to head to the Demon Realm to restore the El completely.
  • Noah: I see. It wasn't that they were aware of where the Order was located.
  • Noah: Then I'll head to the Demon Realm as well. How do you operate this portal?
  • Clamor: Wa, wait a second, Noah. Aren't you being a bit rash?
  • Rosso: What are you talking about? Going to the Demon Realm isn't like going on a picnic. You can't just decide to go on a whim.
  • Noah: It doesn't concern you. I just have to make it there. I'll take care of everything else once I arrive.
  • Clamor: It concerns me! We don't even know what it's like there, and you want to go? Just like that? Don't act so hastily, there's no reason for us to hurry!
  • Noah: No reason to hurry? When will I avenge Harque then? When will I stop the Order? Get your body back?
  • Noah: You're the one being weird, Clamor. What's going on? Don't you want to take revenge on the Order? I thought we shared the same goal.
  • Noah: Didn't you say you wanted to move freely? Why are you acting like this? It's like you've given up everything ever since we arrived in Elrianode.
  • Noah: Did I do something wrong? Don't you trust me? Do you no longer find me reliable?
  • Clamor: ... Calm down. You know I don't mean it like that...
  • Noah: My mind is made up. To finish avenging my brother, and completely annihilate the Order to serve that purpose!
  • Rosso: That's enough. Are you trying to kill yourself? The Demon Realm isn't somewhere you go to throw a pity party.
  • Rosso: I hate people like you who throw their lives like a moth to flame.
  • Noah: Really? I didn't expect that. Then again, I didn't expect you'd be the kind of person to serve as a Master after experiencing something like you did. Isn't that right, number 99?
  • Rosso: I told you to shut up about it!
  • Clamor: Enough already! There's no reason to fight like this!
  • Noah: (I feel dizzy... Do I have a fever?)
  • Noah: I don't... understand. After something like that... why would you become a Master? Why would you follow someone who caused everything...
  • Rosso: ?! Hey, what are you...!
  • Noah: Why is the Goddess... keeping her silence...
  • Clamor: Noah? Noah!

Clamor realizes the weight of his research, as he looks around the dilapidated city. Observing his cool response, Noah asks Rosso why he decided to become a Fire Master.

Quest Acceptance Dialogue
  • Mysterious Voice: ... ... ... ...
  • Mysterious Voice: ... secret... go... on...
  • Noah: (Who... is this...?)
  • Noah: Did I fall asleep...?
  • Rosso: ... What, you just wanted to say you're sorry?
  • Clamor: .......
  • Rosso: Tsk, why would an Elf like you invent something like that and mess everything up. You're not even a Debrian.
  • Clamor: ... I thought magitech was the way to change unfair, and unjust situations.
  • Clamor: Even if you're not an Elrian, even if you don't have any special powers, even if you are born with disabilities... I believed a magical device that anyone can use would solve many of the problems...
  • Clamor: No, let's not glorify this. At the end of the day, I just wanted to prove myself to the world that a half-Elf like me can accomplish something great.
  • Clamor: I never thought it would lead to something unforgivable like this...
  • Rosso: ... Stop whining about it. And don't even think about coddling me like a kid like you do with that guy.
  • Rosso: Hmph. I get what you're saying. You died a long time ago, and the Order took your research, which eventually ended up with the Rosso family.
  • Rosso: Even if you didn't do anything, those crazy people would have done everything they could to go through with the experiment.
  • Clamor: But...
  • Rosso: I'm not done. You're worried that weakling over there seems to neglect the present because he's fixated in the past? To me, you're no different.
  • Rosso: That research left your hands the moment you breathed your last breath.
  • Clamor: But I still exist, even in a form like this.
  • Clamor: I guess we're alike. Me, my invention, we both exist long after we're due.
  • Rosso: Fine. Wallow in your misery. You're just like him. You don't listen to a word I say.
  • Noah: ... Why did you become a Master?
  • Rosso: Ack! You could have said you were awake!
  • Noah: I'm awake.
  • Rosso: It's too late now!
  • Noah: Answer me. Why did you become a Master? I didn't think you were the kind to just accept the position.
  • Rosso: Are you insulting me?
  • Noah: I'm genuinely curious. If it were me, I don't think I could have let it go. I would have done something.
  • Rosso: Tsk, I didn't say I was going to answer...
Quest Completion Dialogue
  • Rosso: ... Do you think you'll be happy once you manage to take revenge?
  • Noah: I thought I succeeded once. Rather than happy... I think I felt relieved...
  • Noah: Looking back, I'm not sure if it's because I thought I succeeded, or because I no longer felt burdened by it.
  • Rosso: ... I thought so too. I thought I was going to destroy everything the moment I became powerful enough, and that it will feel gratifying. But when I actually did manage to, I just felt frustrated.
  • Rosso: Why did it have to be us? It wasn't fair. And when I looked at those who turned to ashes, all I felt was emptiness inside.
  • Rosso: Vengeance, like flames, only leaves pitiful remains after it burns.
  • Rosso: As I aimlessly burned without purpose, there was a guy who reached me through the flames and told me.
  • Rosso: Don't burn yourself away like fire. If you don't have a goal, I'll give you mine.
  • Noah: (Number 27, Lebio...)
  • Rosso: He said he will endure the experiments and become the Fire Master. He didn't even have cursed heritage like I do...
  • Rosso: He believed if he became the Fire Master, and kept the position long enough, the experiments would eventually stop.
  • Noah: That's too...
  • Rosso: Yes, he was hopelessly idealistic. But the El needed to burn constantly after it became unstable.
  • Noah: ... Someone had to do it.
  • Rosso: That's why I became a Master. And there will be no Fire Master after me.
  • Rosso: I refuse to step down from this position, and I will never turn into ashes.
  • Rosso: ... Is that a good enough answer?
  • Noah: .......
  • Clamor: ... Hey, Noah. I have something to tell you as well.
  • Clamor: It's not that I can't rely on you, or trust you.
  • Clamor: It's just... you are carrying so many burdens on your shoulder... I felt heavy-hearted because it felt like my problem was only adding on to that.
  • Noah: I don't think...
  • Clamor: Not only that, I was worried because it seemed like you were throwing yourself away. I don't know about this era, but to me, you're still young enough to be under the protection of a guardian.
  • Clamor: Of course... That doesn't mean I should have acted like one... But I was scared that you'd fall into a situation where you can't get out of on your own, and I won't be able to do anything to help you.
  • Clamor: I'm useless other than staying by your side and talking to you, after all.
  • Noah: Clamor...
  • Rosso: ... Ugh. Do I really have to be stuck between two people who are pouring their hearts out? If it weren't for Darkmoon...
  • Noah: The Moon Priestess? What did she ask?
  • Rosso: Do I look like a messenger to you? Ask her yourself. She looked like she had something to say, so she'll show up sooner or later now that you're awake.
