*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''???:''' '' | *''The sound of laughter, the music playing as everyone dance around, and the sound of children's joyfully giggling.'' | ||
*''The sound of crickets echoed, signaling the darkness covering the sky as the El begins to rest. People were rambunctious, but at the same time, the atmosphere was somehow calm and peaceful.'' | |||
*''Not feeling hungry, Ain slowly finished the food on his plate. He learned a valuable lesson during his short stay in Ruben.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ain}} '''Ain:''' '' 'If you finish your food, or don't eat at all, they don't leave you alone...' '' | |||
*''Ain moved hi spoon at a snail's pace and watched the festival.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Villager:''' ''Haha, these bandits got some moves!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Bandit:''' ''Should I quit being a bandit and become a dancer instead?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lowe}} '''Lowe:''' ''Whatever you end up being, it'll be better than being a bandit.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ain}} '''Ain:''' '' ''They were on opposite sides before, now they're putting arms around each other's shoulders and dancing together.' '' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Short Child:''' ''The pie this year is really tasty!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Loud Child:''' ''Let's ask for another piece! I licked off all the crumbs, but I still want more.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Short Child:''' ''Yeah! If we don't hurry, they're going to run out!'' | |||
*''(Pat pat pat!)'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ann}} '''Ann:''' ''Huhu, how's the festival robes I made this time? Definitely better than last year, right?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lowe}} '''Lowe:''' ''Definitely! It's very impressive.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lowe}} '''Lowe:''' ''Anyway, I'm glad there wasn't any big trouble in the forest. Remember what happened last time? I was worried something might happen right before the festival.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ann}} '''Ann:''' ''It's a relief that the forest is peaceful. Oh, come to think of it, where is Hagus? I need to tell him he did great.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ain}} '''Ain:''' ''.......'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''Ain, what are you thinking about? Aren't you going to eat your pie?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ain}} '''Ain:''' ''Hm? Oh no...'' | |||
*''Distracted, Ain failed to stop Elsword in time from adding another slice of pie to his dish.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ain}} '''Ain:''' ''I just find it strange... how everyone's getting alone with the bandits.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''Ah... But that's the spirit of the Harmony Festival.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ain}} '''Ain:''' ''... I see.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ain}} '''Ain:''' ''(The spirit... of the Harmony Festival?)'' | |||
*''As someone who knew everything in terms of what the Goddess permitted about the El, the concept of the El resting was not something Ain was thrilled about.'' | |||
*''If the El never overloaded and was still stable, never exploded, then this would have never happened. Therefore, the resting of the El was more a price to pay for the foolish act humans committed.'' | |||
*''How could humans not know that and think of it as a joyous occasion? It was something Ain couldn't wrap his head around initially.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ain}} '''Ain:''' ''The spirit of the Harmony Festival...'' | |||
*''Ain thought about what Elsword has said. 'Does the location of the El really matter?' and looked at the villagers who were now mingling with the bandits.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ain}} '''Ain:''' '' 'The El does not pass judgment.' '' | |||
*''The El does not differentiate between an admirable saint and an irredeemable criminal. And in this festival, the criminals who took part in stealing the El was mingling with the villagers.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ain}} '''Ain:''' '' 'Once the festival ends, everyone would return to their places, and a relationship like today's probably won't last.' '' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ain}} '''Ain:''' '' 'However... Though I cannot put my finger on it... How the people of Ruben acts, reminds me of the El. This whole situation...' '' | |||
*''Crash!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''Wah! A phoru! Stop right there, you little rascal!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ain}} '''Ain:''' ''Ah...'' | |||
*''The phoru took advantage of Ain's distracted state and ran away into the forest taking the pie with it. Ain's plate was suddenly cleaned up.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ain}} '''Ain:''' ''Elsword! I'm fine!'' | |||
*''Ain called out after Elsword who followed the phoru into the forest, but eventually, he just shook his head and followed them.'' | |||
