Story/Chapter 41: Difference between revisions

*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''I'm not sure. Something must have happened when he were coming over to Elrianode. I tried waking him up, but he won't budge!''

*{{StoryIcon|Elesis2}} '''Elesis:''' ''For now, we should calm down. We're in Elrianode, so we can ask for help.''

*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''... I didn't expect this is how we'd make it back...''

*{{StoryIcon|KE}} '''Elsword:''' ''Tsk...''

*{{StoryIcon|Darkmoon2}} '''Darkmoon:''' ''... I'm sorry. My powers are not enough to heal Ain completely.''

*{{StoryIcon|Artea2}} '''Artea:''' ''He's not just unconscious. He is showing no reaction to outside stimuli.''

*{{StoryIcon|Denif}} '''Denif:''' ''... No. He's not injured, so there's no use waiting for him to regain consciousness. The El energy in his body is much weaker. I believe that is the reason why he fails to wake up.''

*{{StoryIcon|Rose2}} '''Rose:''' ''Is there anyway we can cure him?''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''(What are you going to do with these two...)''

*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''I'll go as well. You'll need another pair of hands to help Eve and Ain.''

*{{StoryIcon|KE}} '''Elsword:''' ''Ain will be fine. Everyone should rest. And... Let's think together what we should do moving forward.''

*{{StoryIcon|Denif}} '''Denif:''' ''If you are all decided, you should leave now. Artea, gather all the priestesses to send them to Elysion.''

*{{StoryIcon|Lu2}} '''Lu:''' ''The timing was impeccable.''

*{{StoryIcon|Laby2}} '''Laby:''' ''Uh huh! Laby and Nisha helped out a lot! Oh... But... We didn't help Calonne's friend and Nichel.''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''If we hurry back, we might be able to prevent the worst from happening. Although Winster, Nichel, and Haivan were the only ones there...''

*{{StoryIcon|Ara2}} '''Ara:''' ''You're right. Winster's village must be in Rigomor. It would be disastrous if they invade the village.''

*{{StoryIcon|Ara2}} '''Ara:''' ''Laby's friend? You mean the demon that used to know Winster?''

*{{StoryIcon|Laby2}} '''Laby:''' ''Uh huh! Calonne said he used to move between Elrios and the Demon Realm, so he might know how!''

*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''I still think it's worth a try. Even if he doesn't know how to go back, as a portal engineer, he must be aware of the coordinates of the Demon Realm.''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''To use the machine in the underground laboratory beneath the castle? The one that we couldn't use because Add didn't know the coordinates?''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''You mean the device we used to communicate with Winster in Rigomor? It looks broken. Maybe he meant to throw it away?''

*{{StoryIcon|Rose2}} '''Rose:''' ''There's some static, so it's still somewhat functional.''

*{{StoryIcon|Rose2}} '''Rose:''' ''We can only hope. Everyone seems to be fearing the worst, so it would be a relief if we can learn what's happening.''

*{{StoryIcon|Rose2}} '''Rose:''' ''Indeed.''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''It's a great idea! Provided it works... If we know exactly what's happening in Rigomor, it will increase our chance of saving them, and giving us a breather.''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''Oh, looks like we're the only ones left. Didn't Elsword tell everyone to rest easy? Oh well. I guess it's understandable why everyone is feeling restless right now. Ok! I better get moving too! Let's see... We already have people looking into the portal, and Rose and Zero is going to be investigating communications with Rigomor, so...''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''Hm... (Chung looks really down... Almost like a puppy out in rain.) ... Hey, Chung. I was thinking about finding Master Denif. Do you want to come with me?''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''I was going to go ask Master Denif if I could take a look at the fused El that Hennon used.''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''Well, we went to the Demon Realm to find the Dark El, right? We even took the gem out of Varnimyr hoping it will help us find the Dark El. But we didn't manage to bring it here... So we need another plan.''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''Nothing really... Since it's composed of the Primal El and the Dark El, we can't predict what could happen, just like Master Denif said. But we have a mission! And I'm not just talking about defeating Berthe. So, I want to be prepared for anything! So... Do you want to come? You look like you need something to distract you a bit. Oh, don't think you have to follow me or anything. If you're exhausted, you should rest!''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''Not at all! You are very reliable and a great help!''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''Chung...''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''Master Denif! Here you are!''

*{{StoryIcon|Denif}} '''Denif:''' ''Hm? Do you need something? We've already sent Elsword and others to Elysion.''

*{{StoryIcon|Denif}} '''Denif:''' ''Not after Hennon. However, the El became more unstable since the incident last time with Henir's Passage. The El is more vulnerable at this time, so we must stay vigilant.''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''I see. Is that why you're keeping watch?''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''Exactly! So I wanted to take a look at it, and gain insight from you.''

*{{StoryIcon|Denif}} '''Denif:''' ''Hm... There's no need.''

*{{StoryIcon|Denif}} '''Denif:''' ''What I mean to say is that I already have a device that could potentially track the Dark El. If you need it in your journey, I will provide it for you.''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''Why do you have such a device...? Did you predict something like this would happen?''

*{{StoryIcon|Denif}} '''Denif:''' ''No. But you said the Dark El seems to work similarly to the El. Then this device should help. I was already planning on handing it over to you once everyone comes back... But there's no reason not to give it to you now.''

*{{StoryIcon|Denif}} '''Denif:''' ''It reacts strongly to the energy of the Water El. It was used to find bodies of water long ago.''

*{{StoryIcon|Denif}} '''Denif:''' ''If the Dark El is similar to the El, it should point in the direction of the Dark El once you are in the Demon Realm.''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''I see! Do you think the Dark El also holds elemental attributes like the El?''

*{{StoryIcon|Denif}} '''Denif:''' ''I cannot guarantee it does, but I do suspect it is worth an attempt. At the very least, it should have a better chance of working than the corrupted energy waste.''

*{{StoryIcon|Denif}} '''Denif:''' ''I cannot show you at the moment, as I have put a seal on it.''

*{{StoryIcon|Denif}} '''Denif:''' ''Not exactly. The problem lies in the fact that it uses a special seal. If I unseal it myself, I would be the only one that could use it. In order for you to use this device, you must enter the device and release the seal yourself.''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''A space expansion magic...? That must be some special seal.''

*{{StoryIcon|Denif}} '''Denif:''' ''So, what would it be? If you wish, I will transport you into the device.''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''W, wait, what's in it? What are we supposed to do?''

*{{StoryIcon|Denif}} '''Denif:''' ''Hm... I do not know.''

*{{StoryIcon|Denif}} '''Denif:''' ''I am not certain how the 'thing inside' will react. It will react differently depending on who is attempting to unseal the device. It may act harsh, but I am certain you will manage it just fine. I can only advice you should be mentally prepared.''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''Sigh...! Alright! A mysterious seal by the Sage? The Genius Girl Magician Aisha will unseal it, no problem! Let's go, Chung!''

*{{StoryIcon|Denif}} '''Denif:''' ''Then I will open the way. I wish you best of luck.''

*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''Your cloths are all burnt, and you look worn out!''

*{{StoryIcon|Lu2}} '''Lu:''' ''Rosso, that rude imbecile was antagonistic to the end! We just wanted to ask how to get to the Demon Realm, and he started lashing out for no reason!''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''So? What happened? Did you learn how Master Rosso went to the Demon Realm?''

*{{StoryIcon|Ciel2}} '''Ciel:''' ''Yes. He told us that Elrios became unstable during the El explosion creating many rifts. He just jumped into one of the rifts and ended up in Varnimyr.''

*{{StoryIcon|Elesis2}} '''Elesis:''' ''Yes. We can only hope that those who went to find the demon engineer come back with good news. I'll go meet the priestesses. It's only a matter of time before the demons invade Elrios again, so I need to send a message to Velder.''

*{{StoryIcon|Lu2}} '''Lu:''' ''We didn't expect much going in, but it's still disappointing. If only we knew what's going on in the Demon Realm at the moment...''

*{{StoryIcon|Zero}} '''Zero:''' ''This is what we've got so far. [This is Au--ra. We've found the soul. Return immediately, Rigomor is safe. Do not reply. They may be monitoring us.] We had to fill in a lot of blanks, but that should be the gist of it. We listened to the recorded message thousands of times just in case!''

*{{StoryIcon|Rose2}} '''Rose:''' ''We did have some difficulty, but do not exaggerate, Zero.''

*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''But they may be monitored... I guess they're under heavy scrutiny. At least it seems like Berthe hasn't harmed them yet.''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''They're probably in too much of a hurry. Remember when he showed up in Ruben that one time to take the El?

*{{StoryIcon|Ciel2}} '''Ciel:''' ''What? How did you know that? If I remember correctly, Winster didn't tell us anything.''

*{{StoryIcon|Lu2}} '''Lu:''' ''That thing they mention in the beginning of the message is likely Aurora. The White-Ghost King's territory is the furthest north of all the territories. Its chilling wind never stops howling.''

*{{StoryIcon|Lu2}} '''Lu:''' ''I remember what Aegrip told me one day. That the land furthest west of the White-Ghost King is a barren land everyone avoids, but you can see the most beautiful aurora there.... Isn't it an ideal hiding place for the people who lost their lord?''

*{{StoryIcon|Zero}} '''Zero:''' ''That makes sense. They're likely using a codename to hide both the sender and the receiver. Using 'Aurora' as a codename is probably ideal in concealing the exact location of their base.''

*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''What are you thinking about, Aisha?''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''Mm... Huh? Oh! I was just waiting for an opportunity to tell you! Chung! Show them the device!''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''It's supposed to point in the direction where it senses strong water energy. If the Dark El also has elemental attributes like the Large El, it should point us in the direction of the Dark El once we're in the Demon Realm.''

*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''I see...! That's great! But where did you get such a thing?''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''Master Denif. He said it was a keepsake of his mother.''

*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''I wonder if it's ok for us to take such an important item. It shows that he puts a lot of faith on us, but...''

*{{StoryIcon|Ciel2}} '''Ciel:''' ''That's the spirit. Feeling better now?''

*{{StoryIcon|Ciel2}} '''Ciel:''' ''To tell you the truth, you looked like a sad puppy out in rain.''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''Haha!''
