*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''Lady Vayur. Why can't we reveal where the Wind El is located?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''Villages are attacked everyday for the possibility of holding the Wind El because the actual location is hidden.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Vayur:''' ''.......'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''You know they're only looking for an excuse, Lady Vayur.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''Once a village settles and prosper, they appear.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''They connect the villages' prosperity with the El, and use that as an excuse to plunder the village and set fire on the houses.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''At least for the people suffering in Sander, we can't let them use the El as an excuse to raid the villages!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Vayur:''' ''I cannot allow that, Ruda.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''Why not? The Wind El is housed inside the Behemoth.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''If they know where the El is located, and realize they have no way of obtaining it...'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''Then maybe we can stop this tragedy!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Vayu:''' ''Ruda, do you not realize the contradiction in your own words?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Vayur:''' ''Those ruffians are attacking the villages out of their own self-interest. Do you truly think they'll stop because they know the location of the El?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''But...!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Vayur:''' ''And what makes you think they won't touch the Behemoth?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Vayur:''' ''Ruda... Keep in mind. The Behemoth has gone berserk and destroyed Sander in the past.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Vayur:''' ''That tragedy has ended when the Wind Priestess at the time sacrificed her own life to quell the Behemoth.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Vayur:''' ''If those ruffians awaken the Behemoth in order to acquire the El... The tragedies of the past may repeat again.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Vayur:''' ''Even if that doesn't happen, the Wind El will surely be in danger.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Vayur:''' ''Ruda... You must remember that we ae much more fortunate than others.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Vayur:''' ''Other places do not stop at pillaging, and are dealing with full-scale wars to claim the El.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''So what, am I supposed to dance with joy?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Vayur:''' ''Ruda!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''... I apologize.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Vayur:''' ''Ruda... I understand your feeling. The situation brings me grief as well.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Vayur:''' ''But there's nothing we can do. We must protect the Wind El. We must protect it and wait.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Vayur:''' ''When the Goddess looks after us again, the El will be joined once more, and the chain of tragedies will finally end.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''But what about now? The people suffering from the bandits... Is there nothing we can do to help them?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Vayur:''' ''No. There is. We can protect them. Stop the unjust, and tend to the wounded.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Vayur:''' ''Ruda.... Be patient. And you must protect yourself.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Vayur:''' ''You cannot lose to despair and sadness. You cannot give up.'' | |||

*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''???:''' ''-'' | *{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''[It calmed down once I chased away the Harpies.]'' | ||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''They ran with the riches while I was fighting.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''Is this why they involved the Harpies...? Conniving crooks.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''I will not fall for the same trick again.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''[I've swallowed my bitterness and called out to the villagers hiding in their homes.]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''Everyone! It's safe now!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''[Though I could sense their presence, I did not hear any sound. I went to the closest house and knocked on the door.]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''Is anyone here?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''[When I heard no reply, I had a sudden bad feeling and felt shivers down my back.]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''[Thankfully, I heard a voice. It was weak and in despair.]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Villager:''' ''Lady Ruda...'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''You're here! Are you safe?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Villager:''' ''Lady Ruda... We are safe, but what use is it? It's all for nothing.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''[I swallowed my greeting. Of course. There was no relief to be felt. They have already paid a sacrifice too big to ask for anyone.]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''[Kalmahari is not a land with abundant resources. It was the patience and perseverance of the people that has led to the success of this village.]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''But the bandits attacked the village two times like this...!]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Villager:''' ''This is their second attack. I'm sure for the bandits, our village looks like well fed cattle for slaughter.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''Don't say that...'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Villager:''' ''The way they come by and take out belongings like they are entitled to it seems to suggest that's how they view us.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Villager:''' ''So you don't have to worry about us any more, Lady Ruda. We will be leaving.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''... Do you have a place to go?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Villager:''' ''The land is as vast as the sky. Surely we can find somewhere we can settle.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''It's hopeless. They have lost most of the wealth they have accumulated. Even moving to another village would be difficult endeavor.]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''But... There's nothing I can say. I said my farewells and returned.]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''There will be more letters to inscribe on the wall.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''I have yet again failed to protect them...'' | |||

*''[Village Outskirts]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''[On the way out, I fond a bandit who has yet to run away in a house partially destroyed by bandits.]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''Because of you, innocent people, who didn't have to lose their lives...!'' | |||
*''(TAP TAP TAP...!)'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''[I chased down the bandit desperately running away again and again, until I cornered him.]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''The bandit, trapped by the wall, sank to the ground.]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''[... He was a terribly skinny young man.]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''[He was barely twenty. It was hard to tell, because of how emaciated he was, but he must have been around that age.]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Young Man:''' ''I'm young! I was just, so, so, hungry! I didn't kill anyone! Please... Have mercy...'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''[The dull sword he dropped did not have a single drop of blood.]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''[I could see his bony arms and legs between his battered clothes.]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''[When I saw his sunken stomach, with his ribs all visible... I have lost my will to fight.]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Young Man:''' ''I swear! I only followed them because they told we won't have to wander, to starve if we find the El!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Young Man:''' ''And then, I saw a pot covered by a lid in the kitchen, and hope maybe, there would be food...'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Young Man:''' ''I'm telling the truth... I didn't steal anything! I couldn't find the El... I don't even know what that looks like!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''You idiot! The Wind El cannot be found! It's been sealed with the Behemoth aleady, ages ago!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''[Without meaning to, I yelled in sorrow.]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''[The boy did no understand what I said. He only cowered in fear and sobbed because he was afraid of me raising my voice.]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''Ahhh... Ahhh...! Goddess, why must such tragedies exist!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''This hunger, this grief...! How long do we have to repeat this cycle!'' | |||

*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''I have seen it... The wind whispered to me!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''I saw the land burn, the people aim their weapons to each other!'' | |||

*{{StoryIcon|Ruda2}} '''Ruda:''' ''What are we praying for?'' | |||

*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''???:''' '' | *{{StoryIcon|Rift}} '''Rift:''' ''Now there's Sander village... But I heard in the past, there were many tribes and villages that led a nomadic life.'' | ||
*{{StoryIcon|Rift}} '''Rift:''' ''This must be a story of that time...'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Yeah... It was a very strange and sad dream.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''I've had similar dreams, but this was the first time it felt so real.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Rift}} '''Rift:''' ''... Wait, this wasn't your first time?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Nope. It started after I received that curse from the wraith.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Rift}} '''Rift:''' ''You didn't say anything...!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''I didn't?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Rift}} '''Rift:''' ''Come on...! I know I didn't heal you right when I was little, but show me some faith!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Rift}} '''Rift:''' ''It IS my job! It's how I make a living!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Alright! Calm down! I wasn't trying to hid it or anything.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''You don't really remember your dream when you wake up from your sleep, right? So I just didn't remember.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Rift}} '''Rift:''' ''... Really?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Yeah! You know I always traveled by myself. So, when I suddenly had to travel with two snorers, I thought I was dreaming from my sleep being disturbed.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Anyway... I wasn't aware then, but I learned a lot, thanks to the dream.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Of course, it didn't answer any of the questions I actually wanted answers for, like what the curse is, why I got cursed, or why my mana increased.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''But I was able to figure out the identity of the wraith in Sander's tomb and what the building was for.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''But back then, I was too preoccupied to think about it. The dream was too shocking to worry about the implications.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''A feeling of becoming someone other than myself...'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''I would get confused when I wake up because of that. Like, I would think, huh? Why am I here? I thought I was in Sander...'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''.......'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Next memory... I don't really want to think about it. I did something realy dumb, after all.'' | |||
