*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''???:''' ''-'' | *{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Lithia:''' ''[When we came back to the camping site, we were absolutely exhausted.]'' | ||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Lithia:''' ''[Of course, considering the hikes and the battles, it's understandable, but... I think the load in our hearts played a bigger role.]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Lithia:''' ''[Though we had no other option, we killed a holy beast, and we were unable to figure out who was behind the lake or what purpose they had.]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Lithia:''' ''[We were worried about the perpetrator that polluted the lake, so we renewed the protection spells and decided to take turns night watching.]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Lithia:''' ''[But sleep didn't come easy, as we were all troubled.]'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''We saw this in Sander, but the Demon Invasion has become a feature.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''I think it's possible that the people behind it are ruffians who are trying to make the most out of this situation.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''But what good can come out of something like this?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''It's a terrible thought... But wouldn't it be more beneficial to do something where it's noticeable, if they wanted to make profit out of it?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''Let's not dwell on it too much. It would be difficult to figure things out with how little we know.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''... ... ... ... Ahh... This doesn't work either.'' | |||
*''(FLIP, FLIP)'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''La cumen otuasa... Mi ne etuaro...'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''You... Are you going to go through every curse related spell in that book? I need to work, you know.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''We need to do whatever we can. Unless you want to live with that curse.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Surely it won't last forever.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''And... I don't think this is a curse.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''I wish it wasn't either.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''-'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''But regardless of my wish, it's more likely to be one. So I'm going to try everything and you can't stop met!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Ahhh... bother...!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''Huhu....'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''Oh, Mathi. How is your wound. You were injured injuring the fight at the lake.'' | |||
*''(STAND!)'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''My wittle Mathi is hurt?! How terrible! We need to get it healed at once!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''What? No, it's fine! I already treated most of it, so there's nothing left to do!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Uh uh, no can do! A healer should prioritize looking after themselves!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''How can I sleep at night when you are injured, my dear friend! No! My heart won't allow it!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''You're trying to get out of treating your curse, aren't you?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Hehehe... Come now, I'll fix you up!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''N, no! You're terrible at healing...!'' | |||
*''(CRACK! CRACKLE!)'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''ACK!'' | |||
*''(SLAM)'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Excuse you, I am perfectly capable in casting healing spells.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''Uh... It made some terrifying noise...'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''Oh! This must have been the first method of healing! Using the patient's own stamina as restorative energy.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Yup. You're quick to learn. I'm proud of you. How about it? What to change careers and become a magician's apprentice?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''Haha, but I can't use magic. Do you still want me as your apprentice?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Better than becoming a monarch. Haha!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''Oh my, that's very tempting. Hahaha!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''Ah, healing aches... Can't... move...'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''Debilitating me to avoid treatment and having fun without me...'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Mathi2}} '''Mathi:''' ''You... underhanded... ugh....'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Lithia:''' ''[...And that's how the night at Zaya Mountains ended.]'' | |||
|QuestCD= | |QuestCD= | ||
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''???:''' ''-'' | *{{StoryIcon|Rift}} '''Rift:''' ''So... What did you two talk about, after knocking me out with terrible healing aches?'' | ||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Do you even need to ask? You're just an illusion created from my memory anyway.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''You know everything I know already.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Rift}} '''Rift:''' ''I'm telling you... I'm not just an illusion!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Rift}} '''Rift:''' ''Sigh... Why do I even bother. Pretend that I don't know. You have to remember properly, or there's no reason for doing this.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Ugh, fine... We talked about stuff. How she used to live, what she's going to do when we arrive in Velder, that kind of stuff.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''I finished a scroll I had worked on with the libra herbs and listened to Vera talk.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|I was putting off finishing this because I ran out of ink, but good thing.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|Wow... So this is where you use the flower.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|Be careful. If you rip it by accident, it's ging to activate right away.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|You said it's a teleportation scroll? Where does it go?}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|Wherever. It's great if you want to leave without a set destination.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''After that was an extension of the earlier conversation.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''I asked why she decided to go to Velder.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|Did they think they can get rid of the threat by sending you far away since you're so far down the line of succession?}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|Yes. But due to an unprecedented incident that happened in the capital, everyone in the line of succession...}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|And now it's your turn. It's astonishing how everything spiraled...}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|But if you're planning on refusing, why do you have to go? It's going to be hard to refuse when you have to see them face-to-face.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|.......}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|Family to me, are people who threatened my life.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|That's why after I left Velder, I never thought about seeing them, or hoped to hear from them.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|But... when I heard about what happened in Velder...}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|I was scared. But I was scared even more by the fact that I was feeling lonely.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|Can you imagine?}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|The feeling of numerous ties that connects me and my family all being severed overnight due to a terrible disaster...}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Vera hugged her legs as if she felt cold.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''... I don't think it was a cold night.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|This brooch is my grandmother's. It's the symbol of the royal family, and it was passed to me through Mathi.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|I accepted it without thinking, but... Huhu, it felt warm.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|As if blood is coursing through it. Strange, isn't it?}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|That moment, this brooch became the connection that tied me to the few relatives that I have left.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|That's when I decided, that I will return to Velder to refuse, and hand the brooch back myself.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|So... It's merely an excuse to say I wanted to see the family that survived the tragedy.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|.......}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Rift}} '''Rift:''' ''I see...'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''I was somehow moved by that story... So I told her mine.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''The story of Joy and Felix.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|I didn't have as many as you, and we were not connected by blood... But I had a family too.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|Joy took me in, so I spent my childhood in the house by the hill owned by the Beryl family.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|The house wasn't big, but definitely felt more cramped when Felix moved in, and Joy started a new research for Felix.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|You see... Felix wasn't from this world.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|Was he... a demon?}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|Yeah. You don't seem surprised.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|Earlier, when we faced the demons, I was terrified and frozen in place.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|While neither of you were that affected. That's when I thought...}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|Ah, these people are used to demons.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|I see. Haha, I guess I wasn't the only one figuring things out.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|We were happy... But that happiness didn't last long. I did something stupid.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|Everything fell apart when I, scared that Joy and Felix would leave me behind, meddled in Joy's research.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|Because of me, we were all separated.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|Joy went somewhere far, far away where I can't follow her... And Felix and I decided to go our separate ways.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|It would be great if I knew, if he's still in Elrios, or if he found a way back to the Demon Realm...}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|.......}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|Just like your brooch, I have Joy's research.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|I want to complete it for Joy, since she couldnt' finish it because of me.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|Do you accept missions and requests because of the research?}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|Heheh, it's an expensive research.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|I see. I think it's admirable to continue your family's will. You're amazing, Lithia.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|It's funny you say that. You could do it, too.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|Inherit the throne? That's... It's a terrible punishment for the people of Velder.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Vera}} '''Vera:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|He, hehe.}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|Hahaha!}}'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Rift}} '''Rift:''' ''So that's what you talked about. You must have become pretty close to Vera that night.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Rift}} '''Rift:''' ''I know you. You don't like new people. Do you even have any friends other than me?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''If you ask me that one more time, I'm going to take you off my friend list.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Well... I suppose I have a soft spot for people like Vera.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Rift}} '''Rift:''' ''What about her?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''You know. Kinda like you, and me...'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''The fact that we were all once unwanted kids?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Rift}} '''Rift:''' ''Ah....'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''I think that's where I felt a connection. I wanted to be nice, because I pitied her in someway...'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Rift}} '''Rift:''' ''But... I never thought you would have told her about Joy.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Rift}} '''Rift:''' ''Huhu, it reminds me of her.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Who, Vera? I don't know. She's nice and kind, but I don't find her reliable like Joy.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''In fact, it was me that was doing the caring. Haha, first Mathi, and now Vera, they both require so much care.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Rift}} '''Rift:''' ''I'm talking about you, dummy. The way you treat Vera reminds me of Joy.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Rift}} '''Rift:''' ''Vera seems to think of you as an older sister as well.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Me? Me...?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''Noooo! Me and Joy? Don't be ridiculous! Hahaha!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Rift}} '''Rift:''' ''Of course, Vera is not like you at all.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''-'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Rift}} '''Rift:''' ''The Lithia I know, was a total troublemaker who got into fights with other kids and always causing problems.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lithia}} '''Lithia:''' ''What did you say?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Rift}} '''Rift:''' ''-'' | |||
