Elysion, a place which exists in neither Lurensia nor Fluone. In fact it doesn't exist in Elrios at all. Constructed in another dimension by the Devrians in the distant past, Nasods have advanced far beyond those in Elrios.
Elysion is divided into two masses, the lower area known as Atlas and the main body of Elysion proper.
Sent off by the Priestesses of El, the portal has taken the El Search Party to this other worldly dimension in search of the El Lady and Solace. The journey continues to discover the truth behind the mysteries of the Solace and the El Lady. What could Solace be planning in Elysion...?
Chapter 20: Prophetic Mission [Elysion Region Entrance Quest]
Luckily, Elsword and the gang have been successful in keeping the Demon God from destroying all of Elrios, for now. All gathered in Lanox and safe from harm, the Priestesses agree that in order to save Elrios, they must fulfill the prophecy by finding the El Lady. They all must travel to the Distant Ruins and follow the pillar of light leading to another dimension.
Edel: So, you need my help to bring the Priestesses here? Alright, you've helped me this much with Lanox, I have to repay your kindness somehow. Good thing, we've got visitors.
Sasha: Hello, huhuhu...
Anduran: Hello everyone! We meet again!
Chung: Wah! Sasha? And Anduran?
Elsword: Nice to see you all again! But... what happend?
Edel: Hmm... I sent a messanger to Hamel and Sander before this even came up. There's a reason why I can lead Lanox by myself.. Anyways, now all six priestesses are here.
Sasha: I... My prophecy was sealed away but do you all know your prophecies?
Ignia: Yes.
Elsword: That means the prophecy can be fulfilled now. Finding the El Lady...?
Darkmoon: We've actually never met her but through Elesis, it has been confirmed. The legendary El Lady does exist.
Raven: Who exactly is the El Lady?
Artea: El Lady is the representative of the Goddess.
Elsword: What about Solace? I heard he was the Master of the Sun, what does that even mean?
Artea: Masters are powerful Ellians that serve the El Lady, they control one of six powers of El. Think of them like high priests that serve the El Lady with us.
Elesis: I see..
Anduran: Lanox has always been called the edge of the continent and there is a place where we can fulfill the prophecy within the Abyssal Ruins.
Rena: Abyssal Ruins...? And it's at the edge of the continent past the volcanic grounds?
Add: Tsk, volcanic grounds again..? Good thing for me, I have Dynamo's cooling mode... But those weaklings will be burnt to a crisp...
Eve: Be quite, Add.
Add: Kueee..
Chung: It will be hard for you to cross the volcanic grounds without proper gear. Sdeing, could you make us those heatproof suits again?
Sdeing: Kuhahah! I can always make you more heatproof suits and water flasks! Just bring me the materials!
Edel: So, you need my help to bring the Priestesses here? Alright, you've helped me this much with Lanox, I have to repay your kindness somehow. Good thing, we've got visitors.
Sasha: Hello, huhuhu...
Anduran: Hello everyone! We meet again!
Rose: Wow! Sasha! Anduran!
Zero: Hm? How are they here?
Edel: Hmm... I sent a messanger to Hamel and Sander before this even came up. There's a reason why I can lead Lanox by myself.. Anyways, now all six priestesses are here.
Sasha: I... My prophecy was sealed away but do you all know your prophecies?
Ignia: Yes.
Rose: That means the Propheyc will come true, right? We will be led to the El Lady?
Darkmoon: We've actually never met her but through Elesis, it has been confirmed. The legendary El Lady does exist.
Zero: I wanted to ask one thing. Who exactly is the El Lady? I have no data on her.
Artea: El Lady is the representative of the Goddess. At the end of the Nasod War.. When the power of El lost control and became unstable, Goddess Ishmael descended upon a girl. That girl sacrificed herself to calm the El, and that same was handed down to the El Lady to control the El.
Rose: Then who is this Solace person? I heard he was the Master of the Sun.. What exactly are Masters?
Artea: Masters are powerful Ellians that serve the El Lady, they control one of six powers of El. Think of them like high priests that serve the El Lady with us. Even before the El explosion and the El Lady, the El Priestesses served under the Masters.
Rose: I see...
Anduran: Lanox has always been called the edge of the continent and there is a place where we can fulfill the prophecy within the Abyssal Ruins.
Zero: What? Abyssal Ruins...? Are we passing through Volcanic Grounds again?!
Rose: That sounds dangerous. The Priestesses won't be able to cross the Volcanic Grounds without protective equipment. Sdeing, can you make more heat resistant suits?
Sdeing: Kuhahah! I can always make you more heatproof suits and water flasks! Just bring me the materials!
Quest Completion Dialogue
Sdeing: Woah, that was quick!! Give me some time and I'll make some suits that fit the Priestesses perfectly!
You have survived the volcanic region and have finally arrived at the end of the continent. To carry out your prophecy, head towards the Distant Ruins.
Elsword and the gang enter the portal at the far end of Distant Ruins. Right away, they are transported to the Atlas Station, where supplies of diceon ores, which both store and amplify El energy, are managed. They meet the station director, Yuno, and his servant, Nono. They are both Nasod whose technology is more advanced than Eve. Before the Elgang could get answers on the whereabouts of the El Lady, Yuno and Nono are alerted of anomalies at the Diceon Mines. Science Dekal has been stealing supplies to help out the very same person who may lead them to the El Lady and Solace.

Talk to NPC 'Yuno' (Resting Area 'Atlas Station')
Description
The El Lady is nowhere to be seen, and instead, an unfamiliar world lays before my eyes. An unidentifiable Nasod appears out of the blue. First, let's have A Talk With NPC Yuno.
Chung: This... Does not look like Elrios... What happened?
Eve: A completely different world? No... Realm? Moby, Remy, convert to search mode.
Add: (Hmm...? What are these components...? I've never seen these before... Interesting... Kukuku..!)
Yuno: Hey, you!
Elsword: Hm? Who's this kid?
Yuno: Oh, I haven't seen your type before! ..Wait, you're not a Nasod?
Ara: Ah... We are..
Yuno: Hm? What's this soft material?
Ara: ..Hyaah!"
Eve: (Slap) You dare!
Yuno: Ahem... I am the head director of the Atlas Station, Yuno! Ah, sorry about that before, Elegant Nasod, Eve!
Elesis: Sigh... I think you're apologizing to the wroong person... Whatever. You're the only one here, so why would there be a need for someone to be in charge?
Yuno: N..No! Look! My servant Nono is here!
Nono: Beep beep- Beep Hyuuu-
Add: 3rd Gen Nasod technology that surpasses Eve's 2nd Gen Nasod tech... Kuku... More things to experiment.
Rose: This place is ....? Are we the first to arrive in this world?
Zero: The timeline is completely different. We are in the past.
Rose: The El Lady and Solace are here, right? They must be related to the great disaster!
Zero: We'll find out. Get it together! This place is different from Elrios!
Yuno: Hey, you!
Rose: Hm? Who is this child?
Yuno: Oh, I haven't seen your type before! ..Wait, you're not a Nasod?
Rose: Ah, we are...
Yuno: Hm? What's this soft material?
Rose: ... What are you doing?!
Yuno: I'm Yuno of Altas Station! I'm sorry about before.
Zero: You are the director? I only see you here, what the heck are you directing?
Yuno: N..No! Look! My servant Nono is here!
Nono: Beep beep- Beep Hyuuu-
Zero: I see... So this place is made of 3rd Gen Nasod technology. Different from the 2nd Gen Nasod technology of King Nasod. This is going to be bothersome...
Forest Material Collection Cube (Defeat Monsters in 'Diceon Mines') 0/20
Description
The annoying monsters may have stolen the cube that was being transported by the pipelines. Investigate the monsters of the Shyflowne Forest at the enctrance of the Diceon Mines and look for the Cube of Materials.
Lu: What a lovely forest. How mysterious, it's not the demon realm nor Elrios.. Wait, what is that up there, some kind of tower?
Yuno: Ah, those pillars? Those pillars lead to a really amaaaaaaazing place! This place is split into two continents. One is Atlas where they make the magic stone supplies... And beyond that tower is Elysion, where the gods are gathered. I haven't been to the tower yet but from the rumors I heard it's a wonderful place!
Raven: Atlas and Elysion... Two continents, this will mean double the effort... I have a feeling it won't be so easy to find the El Lady.
Elsword: If the prophecy is true.. I mean, of course it's true. The El Lady must be in one of the two continents!
Yuno: Hmm.. What do I do? These are not the stolen cubes. We're looking for the S rank cube, it's made of the purest of diceon.
Rena: Sigh.. I guess we were wrong.
Yuno: Hmmm.. Let's see.... Ah, this is from sector 2. All supplies from sector 2 go across the Shyflowne Forest. Creatures there are rather rough so they sometimes take our supplies from the transport tube. Umm.. I'm sorry to to ask you again but could you help me? If you get the stolen supplies back, I'll help you get to Elysion!
Rose: This is a strange place. It's different from Empyrean or Elrios. What is that pillar of light?
Yuno: Ah, those pillars? Those pillars lead to a really amaaaaaaazing place! This place is split into two continents. One is Atlas where they make the magic stone supplies... And beyond that tower is Elysion, where the gods are gathered. I haven't been to the tower yet but from the rumors I heard it's a wonderful place!
Zero: Altas and Elysion... Two continents... Sigh.. So we have to search two continents to find the El Lady?!
Rose: That's alright, I'm sure the El Lady is on one of those two continents.
Yuno: Hmm.. What do I do? These are not the stolen cubes. We're looking for the S rank cube, it's made of the purest of diceon.
Rose: Damn... Guess we didn't quite hit the mark this time..
Yuno: Hmmm.. Let's see.... Ah, this is from sector 2. All supplies from sector 2 go across the Shyflowne Forest. Creatures there are rather rough so they sometimes take our supplies from the transport tube. Umm.. I'm sorry to to ask you again but could you help me? If you get the stolen supplies back, I'll help you get to Elysion!
If it wasn't the doing of the monsters, the cube wouldn't have made it to the mines in the first place. Let's go investigate the Diceon Mines where the cube was produced.
Yuno: If it wasn't stolen from the transport tube, then it must have been stolen from the Sector 2 mines. That place has the director of mines from Elysion. If this El Lady is really important as you say then the director from Elysion must know something about her.
Elesis: Hm.. Makes sense, I guess. Then.. What is this diceon you speak of?
Yuno: Oh, diceon ore? Yeah, it's quite amazing! It can store El energy but combined with a special kind of technology is can multiply the power output!
Add: Interesting... An upgraded version of a magic stone?
Aisha: I guess we have to get to the mines first.
Yuno: Ah.. Umm.. If you find a lost cube on the way...
Add: Tsk.. I'll think about it.
Chung: Yes, I'll go find it, don't worry! (Add, that kid looked like he was about to cry!)
Zero: What now?
Yuno: If it wasn't stolen from the transport tube, then it must have been stolen from the Sector 2 mines. That place has the director of mines from Elysion. If this El Lady is really important as you say then the director from Elysion must know something about her.
Rose: You've got a point... But what is this Diceon that you speak of?
Yuno: Oh, diceon ore? Yeah, it's quite amazing! It can store El energy but combined with a special kind of technology is can multiply the power output!
Zero: Forget it! Anyways, we need to get to the mines to find the one responsible.
Yuno: Ah.. Umm.. If you find a lost cube on the way...
Zero: Ah, quit it! You damn kid!
Rose: Yeah. We'll find it for sure, just wait here.
Quest Completion Dialogue
Yuno: What? You were attacked by the Nasod miners? A--are you okay?
Add: Hah! This was child's play! I simply hacked into the circuit to track the codes that were altered. The one who changed the code was also inside the mines.
Eve: These Nasods were just doing their jobs... To alter those poor innocent Nasods into combat drones.. Unforgivable..
Yuno: Okay, Eve!
Yuno: Look, all their codes were altered.
Rose: So they applied Combat codes to a Mining Nasod..? I wonder what they are after, we should find out!
Yuno: Science Dekal? He was stealing the supplies? To this.. Solace...?
Elsword: Yes, that's what I heard. Solace! Something about plans and sending supplies.. It sounded very fishy... What is Solace planning?
Elesis: If Solace is in Elysion.. The El Lady must be there as well. I guess we are headed for Elysion.
Lu: That Solace causing the El explosion in your world and planning something sinister here as well!! What an evil bastard! Ciel, don't grow up to be like him, got it?
Ciel: Lu.. I'm not a kid.
Yuno: Science Dekal? He was stealing the supplies? To this.. Solace...?
Rose: I definitely heard Solace. Saying something about a plan and sending the supplies. What is Solace up to?
Zero: If Solace is in Elysion, the El Lady must be there as well. Our destination is now Elysion.
There might be more information regarding Solace and the El Lady left. Let's go to the Diceon Mines to thoroughly investigate Science Dekal's research lab.
Together with Yuno, Elsword and the gang try to uncover Solace's plan. With Science Dekal gone and Atlas City alerted of the missing diceon, the Elgang are mistaken for thieves. Soon after, they track it on its way to the Elysion Tower. To get in, they steal the A-grade core found in the city's toughest Nasod security unit, Surveillan. Yet they find an even tougher Nasod inside the tower. Maya, the protector of Atlas City, is furious that intruders made it all the way to the tower. The path may be clear on the way to Elysion now, but not without an unfortunate sacrifice.

Let's follow the cube's route and find clues about Solace. Destroy the enemies that get in your way.
Ara: I'm envious, Eve! I wish I had those small servants like you do.
Eve: Moby and Remy are not servants. Even though they are small, they are still part of my Nasod family.
Ara: Uuu.. Sorry.. (It looks like you are always bossing them around!)
Eve: Good work, Moby and Remy. What is the situation? I see.. If we just follow the transport tube, it will lead us to Atlas City.
Ciel: Just go straight then? Hm, its sounds simple enough.
Eve: Yes, but... They mentioned that there are enemies all over, so we can't let our guard down.
Rose: How's the situation?
Zero: Tsk, what's with all the security devices. As long as we follow this transport tube, we'll reach Atlas City. Let's move to the entrance while avoiding them!
Yuno: Don't be alarmed. I'm Herjuno, the first son created by my Father... I am an AI in charge of building and maintaining all of Elysion.
Chung: E---Elysion..? Created this world? But then why here...? What exactly happened?
Yuno: I don't remember everything. But... But I do remember I was betrayed by Solace and lost most of my body. I fell here, in the Atlas station and received repairs. Barely made it out alive.
Eve: And.. When Atlas City's emergency protocol was activated, the code was unlocked.
Yuno: As you said, the Elysion wide emergency code have somehow recovered my broken code.
Elsword: ...
Yuno: I must get back to Elysion. I don't remember but that is my purpose.. Solace is planning something.
Elsword: A scheme we'll have to ask him what he's planning once we meet him. Of course, there's no way I'll forgive him. I'll beat him up on your behalf, so don't worry.
Yuno: I... My name is...
Elsword: Right? You already have your hands full with maintaining this station, hahahah!
Aisha: Yeah, don't bother explaining it to this dummy, he won't understand. It might be hard to get everything to the way it was but don't hold it in all by yourself.
Lu: That's right, we are still here with you. I'm sure one day we'll all be sitting around a large table eating cookies baked by Ciel, having fond memories of this exact moment!
Yuno: ... Huhu... Yeah..
Rose: Y--Yuno..?
Yuno: Welcome, I knew you'd come back.
Zero: What's this...? He looks a little different.
Yuno: Don't be alarmed. I'm Herjuno, the first son created by my Father... I am an AI in charge of building and maintaining all of Elysion.
Rose: Elysion... So you were responsible for building and maintaining this world? By the way, what exactly were you doing?
Yuno: I don't remember everything. But...
Zero: Hm.. All Nasods turned to alert mode when the alarm sounded. Maybe Yuno heard the alarm and the seal that was placed on him was removed.
Yuno: As you said, the Elysion wide emergency code have somehow recovered my broken code.
Rose: Ohh...
Yuno: I must get back to Elysion. I don't remember but that is my purpose.. Solace is planning something.
Rose: A conspiracy.. We'll have to figure out why Solace wants to go to Elysion. I'll make sure to teach him a lesson for you, Yuno. Don't you worry.
Yuno: I... My name is...
Zero: What is it, kid? you thought you could solve all the problems or something? Your hands are full just from this station!
Rose: Don't act like that... Yuno, I don't know what happened, but we will help. I'm sure we'll all laugh about this someday in the future.
Advanced Nasod Structure ('Atlas City', 'Hard of Higher', 'Code_B_New_Defender') 0/2
Description
You have learned information about 'Atlas City' from Awakened Yuno's Memory. Destroy Code_B_New_Defender for powerless Yuno to gather the needed structure.
Yuno: I think this happened because Science Dekal disappeared.
Elsword: Because Dekal is missing? What do you mean?
Yuno: All this time the missing diceon cubes went unnoticed because Dekal was covering his tracks but now that he is gone, central Atlas City has found out about the theft. They tracked the thieves based on the recordings left in Dekal's research lab. That's why the whole city went on alert and you were identified as criminals.
Aisha: Thieves? Us? Uuu... We didn't do it!
Yuno: You won't get far without a plan. I'll help.
Lu: Ooh, you seem confident! Did you become stronger when you awakened?
Yuno: Not exactly. I can only do a few things as an administrator. Meaning... I will hack Atlas City's main AI and find the track of the missing diceon cube.
Ara: Uuuu... Yuno, suddenly seems so distant. Head of Elysion architecture... It feels... I see a glowing aura around him...
Elsword: Haha, well, he IS actually glowing. His appearance changed but inside he's the same Yuno!
Aisha: W-What happened? Yuno just suddenly stopped moving!
Add: This.. Looks like it was temporary disabled. This body frame was too small to handle the massive power of the awakened core.
Elesis: I understand we have to upgrade Yuno before we can find out the whereabouts of the cube... But what do we do?
Eve: I saw a few high-grade Nasods of Atlas City on the way. I can upgrade using their body parts.
Yuno: I think this happened because Science Dekal disappeared.
Rose: Because Dekal disappeared...? What does that mean?
Yuno: All this time the missing diceon cubes went unnoticed because Dekal was covering his tracks but now that he is gone, central Atlas City has found out about the theft. They tracked the thieves based on the recordings left in Dekal's research lab. That's why the whole city went on alert and you were identified as criminals. You won't get far without a plan. I'll help.
Zero: Hm.. I guess you did change a little! Did you get some combat capabilities when you unlocked your hidden codes?
Yuno: Not exactly. I can only do a few things as an administrator.
Rose: Alright, once we find their whereabouts, we'll follow.
Zero: ...Wait, Rose! Stand back. I'll take a look... It looks like he temporarily stopped. His small frame couldn't handle the awakened core as he went into overdrive.
Rose: What do we do if he doesn't wake up again? Can we do anything...?
Zero: There were some Nasods in the city that we could use for parts on Yuno's body!
Add: Your core overheated while trying to hack into Atlas City. I made changes to some of your parts with high-grade Nasod gear, so it shouldn't be an issue anymore.
Yuno: I see... Thank you, I'll try again.
Elesis: Are you okay? Why don't you rest a bit more...?
Yuno: Hm?
Eve: Rest and taking it easy are not necessary for Nasods.
Yuno: Okay, I'll start. Cube's location, coordinates 26, 512, 363... Last factory that leads to Elysion... Either the cube or Solace should be in the factory.
Rose: Yuno! Are you okay?
Yuno: W... What happened to me?
Zero: Whew.. We did it, somehow. You idiot! While hacking the main AI for the city, your core overheated! Stop being so reckless.. We've replaced some of your parts with high grade Nasod pieces. It should feel a bit better.
Yuno: I see... Thank you, I'll try again.
Zero: I took some time to look over your existing parts so it should be fine. Now, hurry it up!
Yuno: Okay, I'll start. Cube's location, coordinates 26, 512, 363... Last factory that leads to Elysion... Either the cube or Solace should be in the factory.
Yuno: As expected, we can't enter Elysion like this.
Lu: There are guards everywhere.
Yuno: We have to deactivate their defense... I'll hack into the tower's main AI and remove any dangerous obstacles along your path. You should run towards the Elevator... The Nasods you meet on your way...
Elsword: Just defeat them all? Got it!
Yuno: As expected, we can't enter Elysion like this.
Rose: Well we got through the entrance, but I don't think we can go any further. What should we do?
Yuno: We have to deactivate their defense... I'll hack into the tower's main AI and remove any dangerous obstacles along your path. You should run towards the Elevator... The Nasods you meet on your way...
Defeat 'CODE_A_High_Templar' ('Elysion Tower', "Hard of Higher") 0/1
Description
You are unable to board the elevator and now the only way to get in is to use the pipelines the cube is following. Protect the entrance and destroy High Templar to enter the giant pipe system.
Chung: Hm? That's strange, those supplies are floating away, but the same is not happening to us.
Yuno: The transport tubes uses the power of the El to remove the gravitational pull on an object.. But because it is dangerous on living creatures, we only use it on supplies.
Elesis: That's why it doesn't affect us.. Then how to we get all the way up there?
Elsword: Levitation..? We can't do that, only Eve can do that!
Eve: ... Umm.. Even I can't levitate...
Yuno: I'll try and piece together the cube's location then we should be able to go up.
Rose: That's strange, the supplies are levitating... but it's not happening to us.
Yuno: The transport tubes uses the power of the El to remove the gravitational pull on an object.. But because it is dangerous on living creatures, we only use it on supplies.
Zero: I understand the kid and I...but how the heck would Rose get all the way up there?
Yuno: I'll try and piece together the cube's location then we should be able to go up.
Maya: (Static)... Combat code damage... Unable to function. You've done well to defeat me.. But you will not reach your destination.. You will all perish along with.. the tower.. (Static)
Add: Kuee... The rumble... Was the power to the tower cut? What the heck?
Chung: Everyone...! The tower is about to collapse!
Aisha: Gasp! Everyone, look over there! The light is gone!
Rena: Is the passage blocked..? At this rate we won't even make it to Elysion..!
Elesis: Kh... Elysion is just up ahead.. We can't just give up here.
Yuno: ...
Elsword: Y... Yuno?! W--What are you doing, Yuno!!!!!?
Yuno: This... will have to be my last gift to you all.
Elsword: Why... But the key code... If you do that then you'll die!!!!
Yuno: Please find the truth... Please save Father... Please save Elysion from Solace..
Elesis: This light...!
Elsword: ... Yu... no...
Aisha: ...
Elsword: YUNO!!!
Maya: (Static)... Combat code damage... Unable to function. You've done well to defeat me.. But you will not reach your destination.. You will all perish along with.. the tower.. (Static)
Rose: Keuk... This vibration... The power of the tower was cut! What are they doing?!
Zero: Rose! The light from the central energy core is gone. If this continues, the path to Elysion will be deactivated!
Rose: We made it this far, we can't give up!
Yuno: ...
Rose: Yuno?! Wh--What are you doing..???
Yuno: This might be... My first but last gift to you...
Zero: Kid! Why did you take out your core... You will die!
Yuno: Please find the truth... Please save Father... Elysion from Solace..
Eve: ... Please take it, Nono. It might be better for him to go back to his old friends... Rest in peace..
Nono: Beep
Eve: .. Hm? Message left by Yuno?
Chung: This is...
Add: A hologram?
Yuno: Hey, everyone. If you are watching this clip that means that I have seized to function..
Ara: Yuno... He knew this would happen..
Yuno: If was really fun! In hundreds of years I've never met anyone other than Nono! Of course, that wasn't all... Thank you all, for letting me remain as Yuno... The short moment I spent with you all as Yuno was a lot more precious than the hundreds of years I have spent as Herjuno...
Lu: Uuu... Yuno... Cookie.. I promised to give you a cookie...
Yuno: You're not crying, are you? Listen carefully, my memories have been restored so I'll tell you about Solace and Elysion.
Yuno: A long time ago... Solace came here with an unconscious woman... And my father welcomed him as a guest. But for some unknown reason my internal senses were sending me warnings about Solace.
Elesis: Solace... He's definitely with the El Lady...!
Yuno: I spoke to my Father about the warnings multiple times but my Father simply thought my intuitive senses were malfunctioning.... So he planned to replace me with another AI. Knowing he was planning to replace me. I planted my core deep inside a small Nasod and backed up my base codes and data to flee Elysion.
Add: Small Nasod... I see.
Yuno: But I was tracked down by Solace's goons and was attacked.. After that I landed in Atlas and the rest you know. Be careful... Solace is a dangerous man.. Of course, I believe all of you will do just fine.
Elsword: ...
Yuno: I guess this is our last farewell... In my next life I would like to be born as a human... Reunite with Nono.. And go on an adventure with you all... Eat Ciel's delicious cookies again... and...
Ara: Sob... sob.. Yuno...
Add: ... Tsk.
Elsword: ... Let's go! The path to Elysion is open, we can't let Yuno's sacrifice be in vain... We'll find Solace and make him pay!
Rose: We will hand his memory over to Nono... I'm sure he will find peace with his old friend...
Nono: Beep...
Zero: Mmm..? A message from the kid?
Rose: Is this... a hologram?
Yuno: Hey, everyone. If you are watching this clip that means that I have seized to function..
Rose: Don't tell me... He knew this would happen?
Yuno: If was really fun! In hundreds of years I've never met anyone other than Nono! Of course, that wasn't all... Thank you all, for letting me remain as Yuno... The short moment I spent with you all as Yuno was a lot more precious than the hundreds of years I have spent as Herjuno...
Rose: Sob... You should have told me that in person...
Yuno: You're not crying, are you? Listen carefully, my memories have been restored so I'll tell you about Solace and Elysion.
Yuno: A long time ago... Solace came here with an unconscious woman... And my father welcomed him as a guest. But for some unknown reason my internal senses were sending me warnings about Solace.
Rose: Solace... He was with the El Lady...
Yuno: I've told my Father about the warnings multiple times but my Father simply thought of that it was malfunctioning.... Later he planned to delete and replace me with another AI. I found out about the plan and planted my core deep inside a small Nasod and backed up my base codes and data to flee Elysion.
Zero: He was abandoned because of a misunderstanding..?
Yuno: But I was tracked down by Solace's goons and was attacked.. Later I fell to Atlas and the rest is as you all know. Be careful... Solace is a dangerous man.. Of course, I believe all of you will do just fine.
Rose: ......
Yuno: It feels like... I was reborn!
Rose: Yuno....
Zero: Tsk.. Stupid kid...
Rose: ... Let's go! We can't waste time when a great disaster is heading for Empyrean!
While searching for clues about Solace and the El Lady, you've discovered that the Hernacyds are responding to a special code. Let's go to Heaven's Crossroad and investigate the Hernacyds.
Elsword: This is the place that Yuno told us about...Elysion.
Ara: If Yuno had come with us...
Lu: ... He would have been really happy...
Rena: ... Now, now! Why's everyone so down?! We're in Elysion! Let's plan out our next steps.
Elesis: Yeah! For the sake of Yuno, shouldn't we move forward? He also requested us to do something...
Elsword: Yeah.. Solace..! This happened because of that bastard!! I have to find him..!
Aisha: Hey, Dummy! Where are you going?
Raven: Elsword, Aisha's right. If we go without a plan, we'll just waste our time and put everyone in danger.
Elsword: ...Alright. So what are we going to do now?
Elesis: (Elsword... Why's he in such a hurry...? Is he having a hard time because of Yuno....?)
Eve: Moby and Remy can scout the nearby areas. We'll start moving once we figure out the situation. Moby! Remy! Scou-...... ......Wait. This...it's a signal from Nasods in the area...? Strange. They semm to be reacting to my code.
Add: Hoh... so does this mean the Queen's code is effective in this dimension, too?
Elesis: Wow, amazing, isn't it? Let's start investigating instead of standing around! The Nasods that have been reacting to Eve could be nearby.
Elsword: Alright, then let's go!
Aisha: Gosh, where is he going? Wait for me, Elsword!!!
Rose: This is Elysion.. The place Yuno wanted to visit...
Zero: This isn't the time to be sentimental, Rose. You heard what the kid said! Are you planning on mocking his sacrifice?
Rose: ... Yeah. We can't do that. We can't just act without a plan. We have no information about this area...
Zero: Wait! This trail... it seems like someone already passed through here.
Rose: Huh? There were others?
Zero: Yeah... So you're saying the Nasods are responding strangely to the code here... Follow me! We have to investigate!
Eve: All the Nasods in this area are reacting to my code. Compared to Atlas, the technology of this place goes beyond any Nasod technology that exists in Elrios.. It's third generation technology.
Aisha: Incredible.. Those Nasods are all reacting to Eve, right?
Add: (Kuhahaha! As expected, my eyes haven't deceived me. Eve... you never cease to amaze me!) Then we can use that to our advantage. What if we trick them to think we are one of them?
Lu: Hoh, that's a great plan! Excellent!
Add: Well... It's, It's nothing.....
Eve: ..That's not a bad idea. I'll attempt to access their code. Moby, Remy! Assist me.
Chung: Is it over now?
Ciel: If there's still time, waiting it out might be the best option...
Elsword: Eve! Are you almost done?
Ara: El-Elsword! You're going to make things worse if you don't stay quiet...
Lu: Shh!! Be quiet. It's too noisy!
Chung & Ara: S-... Sorry...
Aisha: Elsword, don't you have something to say?
Elsword (???): Finally.. The Lady that... protects the El....)
Elsword: Huh? What'd you say?
Aisha: Ha... never mind. I never should have expected something.
Elsword: Ah, that's not what I meant. What was that? I thought I heard something..
Eve: ..Access finished. Input has been successful, but let's double check. The Nasods here have given me information on which way to go. This way.
Rose: Can you explain more thoroughly?
Zero: Listen up, Rose! It seems like someone tampered with the Nasod code here.
Rose: Um, is that possible?
Zero: With my skills, it wouldn't be completely impossible. Let's modify this and...
Rose: When will it end? At this rate, we'll be here until dawn.
Zero: Rushing me... Okay, it's done! The Nasods will think we are one of them.
Rose: You're sure, right?
Zero: Don't you trust me?
Rose: ...
Zero: Hey! What's with the silence?! Rose!! Where are you going?! Answer!!!!!
Elsword: Um... Why are they attacking us? Eve, did you mess something up?
Aisha: Does Eve know it's you?
Eve: ... There was no error in the operation. But due to this new technology, I might have overlooked something when I analyzed the code. Let me check again.
After defeating the Hernacyds, we arrived at Elysion village's entrance but a fiery form embodied with Solace's message threatens us. Soon after, it imbues the two statues at the entrance and blocks us. Defeat the Hernia Orb and Hernia Shield protecting the entrance.
Rena: Wow, it's huge. Will there be things like that inside too?
Eve: The central code will only perform through a specific person's command... All access has been blocked.
Raven: Is Solace the one responsible for blocking access..?
Elesis: (Solace..? Urg..! After the incident in Lanox.. Whenever I hear that name.. My head starts hurting.. Why...)
Elsword: ...What the? This place is...
Aisha: What's with you, Elsword? Why are you acting like that?
Ara: Are you feeling sick? I'm worried.
Elsword: No, not that... I've had a strange feeling since I got here...
Ara: Huh? I didn't sense anything...
Elesis: (Aahh..! My head..!)
Chung: Huh..? That symbol is..? Everyone, look over there!
Solace's Symbol: ... I didn't think you'd come all the way here. Elsword...
Elsword: Who are you?! This voice.. How did they know my name...?!
Solace's Symbol: Should I be congratulating you for getting here..? It's too early for you to step foot in this place. If you give up everything and leave this place I will grant you your life.
Elsword: ... You.. No way... Solace?1 Tell us where you are! I'm going to beat you down...!!
Solace's Symbol: ... How pathetic... ARe you still stuck on that childish El Search Party-like fantasy? If you give up, you and your friends can avoid a tragic ending. it all depends on your decision.
Elsword: ..What? What are you saying...?!
Elesis: I'm sorry, but I'll have to decline. Who put you in charge?
Solace's Symbol: ... You really are oblivious. Negotiations have broke down.
(Crash)
Add: Aaah! What's with this earthquake...?!
Aisha: Ahhh! Up... Up there!! That stone statue at the village entrance.... It's moving!?
Lu: Everyone, be careful! I sense an unusual power from that statue!!
Rose: Thanks to you, I had a good battle.
Zero: Stop it, will you...?! I said it's not my fault!
Rose: Yes, yes, I understand.
Zero: ... Rose.
Rose: I said I understand!
Zero: That's not it. Move aside!
Rose: ...?
Solace's Symbol: ... Who are you guys? You guys don't look like the El Search Party.
Rose: That's something we should be saying.
Solace's Symbol: Well, that doesn't matter. You also seem to be after the El Lady..I will not hand her over.. I will have mercy on you all. If you give up everything and leave this place, I will let you return to Elrios safely.
Rose: So you're.. Solace.
Solace's Symbol: I'll make you a deal. If you help me, I will help you accomplish your goal.
Zero: Really? Tell me more details! I was destined to be the capital's-...
Rose: No, thanks. This was ordered by the Imperial Princess-.. If I don't solve the problem, it's meaningless.
Solace's Symbol: ... The deal is off. I have no choice but to stop you guys with military force.
Elsword (???): (The El... Only one guardian.. This way..)
Elsword: ...?
Aisha: Hey, Elsword!
Elsword: ... Ah, what did you say?
Aisha: What do you mean? You're acting strange, you know that? Ever since we came to Elysion!
Elsword: Wh- What!
Aisha: What do you mean, what?! You're usually noisy, but you're just mumbling to yourself..!
Chung: You two, please calm down! So... Ah! Now that we've come to the village, should we begin investigating Solace...?
Rena: Yeah..! That's a good idea! But... Where do we go..?
Eve: Based on what these Nasods were saying, there's a Nasod in charge of the whole village. Let's go to it.
Elesis: Oh! Nice, Eve! Let's go! This way, right?
Elsword: ...
Elesis: (Elsword is definitely acting strange... Is he bothered by what Solace said? Ack, me too... After hearing Solace's voice, my headache has been getting worse.... I hope it's nothing...)
Zero: Anyway, don't you learn? I've said it already but this body is an ecliptic defense...
Rose: I guess this is the village. Seems there are only Nasods here..
Zero: Are you ignoring me now? Who's the one that brought you here in the first place...!
Rose: Ah, that Nasod over there... Seems like it's the Nasod in charge of this village.
Zero: Hmph! Based on what the others have said, he's Bernard.
Bernard: Hmm... This is bad. This is really bad. Hmm...
Elsword: Hey, Mister! Are you the Nasod in charge of this village?
Eve: That's rude, Elsword! Have some manners!
Bernard: Hmm...? You guys are...?! Ah, are you part of the Atlus army? I heard about this but I didn't think you guys 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, I...
Rena: (Shh! We're being recognized as Atlas troops thanks to Eve!
Ara: (Th-That's right...! I almost made a mistake!)
Bernard: Yeah.. Thanks for coming at a time like this! I'm relieved... I am Bernard, the one who oversees this Elysion village.
Chung: Bernard, can you tell us what the situation is?
Bernard: Yeah, you guys should know... All of this happened at the same time communication was cut off from Adrian's Palace.
Eve: Adrian? No way... Adrian, the father of Nasods, is here...?
Bernard: That's right. That place over there in the far distance..it's our creator Adrian's Palace. All schedules in our village are decided based on orders from the Palace, but... All orders have suddenly stopped. At first I thought it was a temorary error... but after some time, communication has ceased.
Raven: Does that mean something happend at the Palace?
Bernard: I think so...it's not only around the Palace. Even the guards nearby have been powered up... It's highly possible something happened at the Palace. And... Although I can't be sure..Nasod Scouts have also 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... Ahh.. Of course, this village will be safe. It's been fine here..but strange incidents have been occuring...
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 a name...
Elsword: You don't..? But at the entrance..
Eve: Stay calm, Elsword. We need information on this place.
Bernard: Hmm... This is bad. This is really bad. Hmm...
Rose: How do you do, officer?
Zero: No need to be so formal.
Bernard: Hmm...? You guys are...?! Ah, are you part of the Atlus army? I heard about this but I didn't think you guys would get here so soon..!
Rose: (When did we become part of the Atlas army...?
Zero: (Are we being recognized due to the change of code from before?)
Bernard: Yeah.. Thanks for coming at a time like this! I'm relieved... I am Bernard, the one who oversees this Elysion village.
Rose: We want to know what's going on here. There are a lot of guards outside the village.
Bernard: Yeah, you guys should know... All of this happened at the same time communication was cut off from Adrian's Palace. All schedules in our village are decided based on orders from the Palace, but... All orders have suddenly stopped. At first I thought it was a temorary error... but after some time, communication has ceased.
Zero: Did something happen at the Palace?
Bernard: I think so...it's not only around the Palace. Even the guards nearby have been powered up... It's highly possible something happened at the Palace. And... Although I can't be sure..Nasod Scouts have also gone missing.
Rose: The situation doesn't look too good... The Nasods in this village seem laid back. Is that okay?
Bernard: The Nasods of this village are not allowed to move without orders from the Palace. I have no choice but to wait here... Ahh.. Of course, this village will be safe. It's been fine here..but strange incidents have been occuring...
Collect 'Defense System Memory' (Heaven's Crossroad, "Very Hard") 0/10
Description
Bernard explains that because of the Herncyds monitoring the village. communication with Adrian has stopped. To investigate, he asks that we collect the memory of the defense system from the Hernacyds in Heaven's Crossroad.
Bernard: Hmmm... I can't help but be worried... Not being able to communicate with Adrian's Palace.
Ciel: Does anything come to mind?
Bernard: Right now there's a first class defense system activated near this village. If the defense system had stored memory from the time it was until now, we can easily figure out what happened but... Like I said before, we can't move unless we're ordered to. Unless we receive a separate order, we'll have to stay put and protect this village.
Lu: They really know how to obey orders. Right, Ciel?
Ciel: ... Lu, what are your intentions behind calling me?
Lu: Ohohoho! It's nothing! Let's go get that defense system's memory from that Nasod!
Ciel: Don't change the subjects, Lu.
Rena: Sometimes those two are a comedy duo.
Chung: R-.... Really...?
Bernard: Hmmm... I can't help but be worried... Not being able to communicate with Adrian's Palace.
Zero: Wait, doesn't something feel off?
Bernard: Right now there's a first class defense system activated near this village. If the defense system had stored memory from the time it was until now, we can easily figure out what happened but... Like I said before, we can't move unless we're ordered to. Unless we receive a separate order, we'll have to stay put and protect this village.
Rose: ... Waiting for orders in a situation like this... it doesn't seem efficient.
Zero: You'll be defeated if you didn't have an elite AI like me. Do you understand now, Rose? Exactly how great I am..
Rose: I guess we'll reclaim the memory of the defense system.
After checking the collected memory, we were able to find out about Solace and the situation of Adrian's Dwelling. After realizing that the disappearance of the Elysion citizens were related to the Herncyds, Bernard asks that we deliver this message to the village chief, Durenda.
Eve: I never thought something like this would have happened...
Elsword: 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: We won't know what to expect based on the documented information. The energy waves from teh barrier.. It matches the energy responsible for moving the statue at the entrance.
Raven: It seems like Solace is responsible for creating a barrier around the Palace..
Bernard: How could this be... The Palace...
Eve: One more thing, the Nasod guards have been abducting the Nasod scouts.
Bernard: I can't believe it... Is this what's been happening outside the village?
Aisha: Exactly! Couldn't you have still put together a group to scout the area?
Bernard: That's impossible... Without the Palace's orders, our code forces us to stay here. Hmmm... We can rescue the captured Nasods and gather information from them. First... we'll have to send this information to the Nasod troops stationed in the village and Hernacyd's officer in command, Durenda. They might be able to figure something out.
Eve: I see, I'll start searching immediately.
Zero: Ah... so that's what happened.
Rose: What happened?
Zero: Adrian's Palace can't be contacted from the outside. There's also a mysterious barrier surrounding it...
Bernard: A barrier... Adrian... What happened to Adrian?!
Zero: That's all I know. I've told you everything that was documented. Huh? I see Solace! I feel like he's using diceon and some other power for something...
Rose: It's a memory that contains some foreign documentation. It's not enough information, though.
Bernard: How could this be... The Palace...
Zero: Wait, is that... a guard? Why is that guard abducting other Nasods?
Bernard: I can't believe it... Is this what's been happening outside the village?
Rose: We're not too late! Let's gather scouts to investigate the situation and come up with a plan...
Bernard: That's impossible... Without the Palace's orders, our code forces us to stay here. Hmmm... We can rescue the captured Nasods and gather information from them. First... we'll have to send this information to the Nasod troops stationed in the village and Hernacyd's officer in command, Durenda. They might be able to figure something out.
Upon hearing the news, Durenda says he has not recieved a command nor commanded the Hernacyds. Since outside access to Adrian's Dwelling has been blocked, Durenda guesses that security measures have gone up due to the operating emergency defense system. Since Durenda's command won't go through and the special code can't be accessed, we decide to stop the evil deeds of the Hernacyds in Heaven's Crossroad first-hand.
Add: Tsk! Stop whispering.. That lady, she heard about the Nasod scouts being abducted, right?
Durenda: Yes, I heard.
Elsword: ... That's it?
Durenda: ...? I was asked a question so I answered. Is there anything else you have to say?
Chung: Hmm.. From what we've investigated, the ones that have been abducting the Nasod scouts were the Nasod guards.. So..
Elsword: We came here because Bernard told us to deliver a message. Do you know anything about it?
Durenda: Bernard? Sigh, I was wondering who you guys were.. The Atlas army, was it? How pathetic of him, asking for help.. Initially I was going to send Nasod Guards under my orders, however that would only increase the tension between our allies. I sent Nasod Scouts instead. You think I'm the one who gave them those orders/ Why would I order my units to capture other Nasods?
Add: Haa.. You really are bothersome! Eve, show the memory to this Nasod!
Eve: Don't order me around, Add.
Add: ... Ack.
Add: You saw it clearly, right?
Durenda: Outrageous...
Elsword: Anything would be great. What do you think?
Durenda: Tsk..! But there is one thing. Ever since we lost communication with Adrian's Palace, the Palace guards have turned on us. Maybe it's because of that... If something bad were to happen at the Palace, it's defensive systems will activate. Perhaps that code had activated..which could explain why the Palace guards are acting that way.
Rena: That means...
Durenda: You probably deemed that dangerous, but if a direct command was given to them, then my orders wouldn't go through.
Elsword: That...?
Durenda: If you're done, then I'd like for you to leave. It's almost time for Phobos to rest.
Ara: Phobos? Is there someone else here? I can't see him?
Aisha: Ahh.. Ara, don't say anything bad!
Eve: I tried to access the code of those Nasod guards, but as expected, access has been restricted.
Raven: We'll have to go up against the Nasod guards then.
Zero: Hey, you! You've heard of Nasod scouts going missing, right?
Durenda: Yes, I heard.
Zero: ... What! Is that the end?
Durenda: ...? I was asked a question so I answered. Is there anything else you have to say?
Rose: We searched the memory of the Elysion defense system. The Nasod scouts are being abducted by other Nasods.
Zero: Yeah! Bernard told me to find you. Do you know something?
Durenda: Bernard? Sigh, I was wondering who you guys were.. The Atlas army, was it? How pathetic of him, asking for help.. Initially I was going to send Nasod Guards under my orders, however that would only increase the tension between our allies. I sent Nasod Scouts instead. You think I'm the one who gave them those orders/ Why would I order my units to capture other Nasods?
Rose: Hmm... How about showing this person the memory?
Zero: Haa, since you don't seem to get it. I guess I have no choice.
Durenda: Outrageous...
Zero ': Did you see? Now, talk! You must know something.
Durenda: Tsk..! But there is one thing. Ever since we lost communication with Adrian's Palace, the Palace guards have turned on us. Maybe it's because of that... If something bad were to happen at the Palace, it's defensive systems will activate. Perhaps that code had activated..which could explain why the Palace guards are acting that way.
Rose: So that means...
Durenda: You probably deemed that dangerous, but if a direct command was given to them, then my orders wouldn't go through.
Rose: It's that?
Durenda: If you're done, then I'd like for you to leave. It's almost time for Phobos to rest.
Zero: Phobos? What kind of unsophisticated name is that?
Rose: (... Let's keep those words to oneself, yes? They seem angry...)
Zero: So what? Let's go look for the Nasod guards1 Follow me, Rose!
While battling the Hernacyds and rescuing the imprisoned citizens, we discovered that there are more imprisoned citizens left. Among the memories of the rescued citizens, information about Solace's Fortress was discovered! But due to a fatal error, more was unable to be extracted. To carry out Bernard's request and save the imprisoned citizens, we decided to return to Heaven's Crossroad to find a citizens with a Solid Memory.
Eve: Is there something you want to tell me? Memory... You stored all the information in your memory? I'm really good. It seems that... there are a lot more captured Nasods than we though. This Nasod is asking us to save them.
Elesis: Do you have any other information?
Eve: ... This... isn't the Palace. It's an extremely dark place... Isn't this a diceon cube? These stolen diceon cubes are from Atlus...it seems they're being used as an energy source.
Lu: A device nearby? Can you explain in more detail?
Eve: ...It's memory has been damaged...It's data cannot be recovered. Moby, Remy... Repair this Nasod.
Elsword: For now, I think there's only one thing we can do.
Chung: Yeah, we need to go save our Nasod friends!
Ciel: If we're lucky, one of his friends might hold solid memories.
Elsword: Yeah, wait here! I'll save your friends!
Nasod Worker: Beep, Beep-
Rose: Huh? What are they saying? I'm not sure... huh...? Is this a memory chip?
Zero: Give it here! Hmm, there seems to be a lot of Nasods that have been abducted. What? Save your friends? Why should we...
Rose: Okay, I promise! Zero, do you have any other information?
Zero: Chh, you sure are stubborn. Wait here. I see strange place... I see Solace and questionable devices... They seem to be made from a huge amount of diceon...
Rose: A questionable device? What's that?
Zero: ... The memory is damaged, I can't see anymore.
Rose: Hmm... As of now, the only thing we can do is save our Nasod friends.
Zero: Okay, alright! Well, we can find one with a more stable memory...
Most of the data of the rescued citizens were erased or unable to be read due to an error, but thankfully we were able to piece together the bits of data to figure out that Solace's Fortress was under Adrian's Dwelling. The area was inaccessible, though. Bernard said that Herbaon or Adrian might know a method, so we decide to go to Adrian's Dwelling to find a method to get to Solace's Fortress.
Bernard: Ah.. Herbaon has been filling in for Adrian. He's Elysion's key code that is in charge of all construction and management. You can look at it this way...He's the one currently in charge of Elysion.
Eve: (Herbaon... The new key code made by Yuno...)
Add: ... To find out how to get to Solace's Fortress we need to meet Adrian or Herbaon eventually.
Bernard: Yeah. They said Solace's Fortress is under the Palace, but don't know how to get there.
Chung: Hmm.. Weill we be able to bypass the Palace's barrier?
Bernard: That... is going to be hard, but... No one here knows anything about this barrier either... As you all know, we're...
Aisha: So you're saying you can't move unless you have orders, right?
Bernard: ..I'm sorry we can't be of more help..
Aisha: So you're saying you can't move unless you have orders, right?
Raven: Guess this means we'll have to go there ourselves.
Bernard: ..Ah! Now that I think about it, there's something I haven't told you guys yet. There's something strange that I noticed. I searched through the memory of the defense system you guys brought me last time....
Chung: Do you have any new information?
Bernard: I discovered a source near the barrier...it could be the one responsible for creating it..
Ciel: Who? Do you know this person?
Bernard: No, I know everything about the Nasods in this area but I have never seen that individual before.
Rena: So.. If we stop the person who created the barrier, the barrier will disappear right?
Elesis: Then there's no reason to wait. Let's go!
Zero: To get to Solace's Fortress we'll have to meet Adrian.
Bernard: Yeah. They said Solace's Fortress is under the Palace, but don't know how to get there.
Rose: But is the Palace's barrier passable?
Bernard: That... is goign to be hard, but... No one here knows anything about this barrier either... As you all know, we're...
Zero: Again with the orders.
Bernard: ..I'm sorry we can't be of more help..
Rose: Haa... The only thing to do is go there ourselves.
Bernard: ..Ah! Now that I think about it, there's something I haven't told you guys yet. There's something strange that I noticed. I searched through the memory of the defense system you guys brought me last time....
Rose: Did you discover anything new?
Bernard: I discovered a source near the barrier...it could be the one responsible for creating it..
Zero: What's that... is it a Nasod?
Bernard: No, I know everything about the Nasods in this area but I have never seen that individual before.
Rose: Hmm... I'm not sure if we can pass through the barrier.
We retreated due to the violent attacks to the Emperacyds. To request help, we went to find Durenda. Durenda gave a detailed explanation about the place of Adrian and the Emperacyds, and suggested that Hugo might know a method to go against the Emperacyds.
Durenda: How's teh situation beyond the barrier? Tell me.
Elsword: Sigh.. I couldn't look around with all the Nasods attacking me.
Durenda: Hm, so that's what happened. It seems he was in a hurry seeing he wasn't able to notice you guys. Perhaps they haven't heard of him yet, seeing as how it's in a state of isolation.
Add: Nasod. Didn't you come here for something?
Durenda: Ah, that's right. At first I thought you were simply Nasod soldiers, but you guys are stronger than I thought. I acknowledge your abilities, and so will Phobos.
Aisha: (Phobos?! Who is that?)
Ara: Don't pinch me, Aisha!
Durenda: The ones that attacked you are the Palace guards. They recieved orders from someone. That's why a warning was sent out, resulting in them attacking you.
Eve: Is this the one you spoke of before?
Durenda: Yeah, that's right. Herbaon. I have no choice.
Elsword: About what Bernard told us...
Lu: If it's your underlings, do something about those Nasods. WE can't move ahead!
Ciel: Relax Lu. You said you wouldn't listen to their orders.
Durenda: You seem to know it well. They aren't listening to my commands still but there is a way. Nasod Hugo... In this village, he knows the most information. With him, he'll be able to find a way to bypass the Nasod Guards. We'll, that's only if you can understand what he's saying.
Rena: Hmm? Seems like there's something here... Aaaahh?!
Hugo: S-, Sorry. I didn't meant to. I thought there was something wrong with the device and accidently dropped a part. What I looked all over...but I don't see it. I was thinking and looking at the ground at the same time. So I thought, hey, I should utilize the power of my Nasod arm to get it out! But! I had lent it to a friend who is a scout, and I was here wondering what to do, and at that moment, you guys showed up!
Ara: Ahh... I don't understand what you're saying.
Lu: Uuuuu.. My head hurts, Ciel. Go find out what they are saying.
Ciel: ... There's a problem with the device... Hmm... Something was done to it...
Add: Chh...not being able to understand something this simple. Move. Hey, you know a lot about battle Nasods, right? Do you know about the Nasods inside the Palace, too?
Hugo: Ah! If it's about that, then I know! Yessiree. There's nothing I don't know about this place. I heard Adrian requested help, and then, um... So what I'm saying is, through those Nasods... Ah, no, so the...
Add: That... W-Wait, let me summarize...
Hugo: That... W-Wait, let me summarize...
Aisha: (Wow, it's gotten quiet. Such a strange talent.)
Hugo informed us about the Emperacyds' components and a method to easily destroy them. The method was to destroy the barrier surrounding Adrian's Dwelling. He said that getting rid of the threat will make high alert emergency be lifted. To destroy the barrier, we entered Adrian's Dwelling and came across the one who create it, Dekal.
Hugo: It's not hard, nope nope! It's a simple principle! So in short, right now we're in a high alert situation, so battle Nasods have positioned themselves in and out of the Palace.
Add: No need to explain. I'm pretty sure I just asked for the main points.
Hugo: Ah, I might be able to remember... Why didn't I ask them... What was the reason...? If I knew, it would have been easier to handle...
Add: You sure are talkative. As a matter of fact, I'm interested in these Nasods. I guess I'll take you apart fir-...
Eve: I will not forgive those actions.
Add: ... Just saying.
Hugo: Barrier... The barrier surrounding the Palace. You have to break it. The barrier, that is! If you break it... the threat level will weaken.. It should be released. Herbaon's emergency alert will stop and the Nasods will weaken in their attacks..
Add: ... So if the Palace barrier is broken... the pests will vanish..
Aisha: Argh!!! Everyone knows that! We didn't waste our time just to hear something obvious!
Hugo: No-no-no-nope, not matter how amazing the mage is... it's not easy to maintain power of this magnitude. There will be! Certainly, certainly! Something that is maintaining the barrier! An emergency source or a battery, or... or something!
Raven: Hmm, I see... To maintain a barrier around the Palace isn't easy. If only we can find the power source...
Eve: Moby, Remy. Lend me your power. We need to find out what's powering this barrier.
Once Dekal was defeated, the barrier surrounding the Palace disappeared. We passed the Emperacyds that had their emergency alert lifted, and entered the secluded area inside Adrian's Dwelling.
Elsword: This place is... the heart of Elysion, Adrian's Palace...?
Elesis: Now we can finally get inside the Palace.
Eve: A lot of supplies have been left in Adrian's palace. Adrian wanted to distance himself from the way of the world. He only longed to gather Debrians and create as many Nasods as he could...
Add: Hmm... Adrian...
Elsword: This is where Yuno used to be.
Ara: ... That's unfortunate. He would have liked it...
Rena: ... Everyone, cheer up, and let's look inside. Stopping Solace was also Yuno's request.
Adrian's Dwelling was full of Herbaon's PooPangs and puzzles. After struggling for a bit, we decided to ask Hugo for advice again. Hugo said that although Herbaon's puzzles were annoying, they're not that hard. He asked that we bring the PooPang Maneuver Code stuck inside the PooPangs. Let's go the Adrian's Dwelling where the PooPangs are and get the PooPang Maneuver Code.
Aisha: Urgh, I really don't want to go back there, but... I guess I'll need the help of that loud and annoying Nasod...
Lu: Huhu, don't be like that. We have a skilled translator called Add, right?
Add: Treating me like a translator...!
Elesis: Haha. Add is quite reliable, no?
Add: ... Che.
Hugo: Ohhh, I heard it's been released. That Palace barrier! Amazing, really! I was of great help, right?
Add: Aside from the Nasods we encountered, there's a new type of Nasod. Have you heard anything about them?
Hugo: Ah, I know them! Herbaon created them. It's a hobby of his.
Ciel: It's a bit aggressive to be a hobby...
Hugo: Hmm... I don't think so. So it's not just a mere hobby. There was a puzzle, right? Those Nasods are guarding them. Because they have to protect them, Herbaon, and Adrian...
Add: We need to meet Adrian. We can utilize the Nasods protecting the puzzle to our advantage.
Hugo: There's a way, of course! Herbaon's puzzle is tiresome, but it's not as hard as you think. Oh, yes-yes. It's come to me. A magnificent idea! Can you bring it to me? The chip inside the Nasod dolls? I'll create a magnificent device for you!
Hugo used the PooPang Maneuver Code that we gather and used his machine to install a confusion device inside it. Hugo informs us that if we stick this inside the PooPangs, they will stop following commands and start malfunctioning, so we head towards Adrian's Dwelling to go against the PooPangs.
Hugo: It's done. Look, look! How is it? Do you sense it? You sense it, yes?
Ara: I still don't understand...
Add: What do you want me to do with this?
Hugo: It's simple, really! If you insert it into a Nasod doll, then ta-dah! Their system breaks down! Then there will be a malfunction allowing you guys to pass through to where Adrian is! Simple!
Elsword: Urgh... Can I trust you?
Aisha: There's no other way, we'll have to head out first.
As Hugo predicted, the PooPangs began malfunctioning. But Herbaon's puzzle became violent and began attacking everything in sight. We deliver this message to Hugo and he asks that we bring him the PooPang Attack Code. Let's go to Adrian's Dwelling and defeat the PooPang to get the PooPang Attack Code.
We deliver the collected PooPang Attack Code to Hugo. After careful thought, Hugo installs a special device. Hugo tells us that when the device activates, there will be a system error and we will be briefly recognized as PooPangs. He also told us that with this device, we can 'command' the PooPangs. After hearing the news, we head over to Adrian's Dwelling once more.
Hugo's PooPang Attack Code operated correctly. As commanded, the PooPangs solved the puzzles and guided us to where Adrian was. We were able to reach Adrian safely, but Herbaon, who was protecting Adrian, mistaken us for intruders. Win the battle against Herbaon in Adrian's Dwelling and resolve the misunderstanding.
After resolving the misunderstanding, we decide to wake up Adrian to find out about Solace. With the help of Herbaon, we are able to wake him up. We tell Adrian about Yuno and the El Lady, and Adrian enlightens us about all that has happened regarding Solace.
