*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''???:''' ''-''
*''(CREEK, CLANG!)''
*{{StoryIcon|ES}} '''Elesis:''' ''I made an opening on the armor! Let's see who was controlling this contraption!''
*''(CRACK- SLAM!!)''
*{{StoryIcon|Aps}} '''Ara:''' ''So? Anyone inside...?''
*{{StoryIcon|ES}} '''Elesis:''' ''... None. I only see machine parts.''
*{{StoryIcon|CEs}} '''Eve:''' ''As I thought. Though they're not exactly the same... All the machines here incorporate Nasod AI, or at least something that was altered from Nasod AI.''
*{{StoryIcon|CEs}} '''Eve:''' ''It's unlikely that any of the machines have a pilot. They're likely controlled by the central AI.''
*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''Elesis, watch out! It's moving again!''
*''(WHIIRR-!)''
*{{StoryIcon|ES}} '''Elesis:''' ''Ugh, wait, I'm going to fall this way...! Wah!''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''Jump! We'll catch you! Right now!''
*{{StoryIcon|ES}} '''Elesis:''' ''Kugh! ... Uwa, that was a close call! What was that?''
*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''Oh! I think there was a description on the Dream Demons' map! Let me read it for you.''
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Ricardo:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|... 'You'll see them when you climb the wall. Approximately 1700 Fins tall with immense steel body, its imposing muzzle never misses its target.}}''
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Ricardo:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|When it relentlessly charges towards intruders like... ...Tsk, how to describe it...}}''
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Ricardo:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|There must be something more... sophisticated... I can use to describe, but man, I can't think of any.}}''
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Ricardo:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|Oh! Anyway, I gave it a name. It defeated many elite Torta hunters, so it needs something epic!}}''
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Ricardo:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|The name is Vargr! I named it after a terrifying four-legged beast tamed by a giant that once ruled the Land of Steel and the Red Demon Territory according to Old Queen Granny.}}''
*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''Ricardo:''' ''{{color|#F1670A|I think it's fitting. Actually we had a few other candidates...}}''
*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''... It's all useless fluff!''
*{{StoryIcon|CEs}} '''Eve:''' ''He gave us the first draft... It's troublesome. We should give this back to him later.''
*{{StoryIcon|Aps}} '''Ara:''' ''This machine is very sturdy and persistent. I wonder if there's any way to lose it? It would be best if we can find a way to make it fall down the wall.''
*{{StoryIcon|CC}} '''Chung:''' ''The way it withstands pressure is outstanding. If only Aisha was here...''
*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''I don't think it would have made much of a difference. The metal it's made of seems to resist magic!''
*{{StoryIcon|Lib}} '''Noah:''' ''It resists magic...? Maybe there's some kind of resistance spell or mechanism that rejects magic?''
*{{StoryIcon|Clamor3}} '''Clamor:''' ''Or that metal could be made of special material.''
*{{StoryIcon|Min}} '''Rose:''' ''Is there anyway we can make use of that, Zero?''
*{{StoryIcon|Zero}} '''Zero:''' ''We can try. Eve found a dormant airship, but it didn't have any visible problems, so I can try operating that.''
*{{StoryIcon|Min}} '''Rose:''' ''The Dream Demons must have taken it out. That's convenient. Zero and Eve, if you will?''
*{{StoryIcon|CEs}} '''Eve:''' ''If we can get it to work, it should allow us to go over the wall quickly. We'll try.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''I am absolutely outraged... I cannot accept this situation at all!''
*{{StoryIcon|Chv}} '''Ciel:''' ''Of course. There's no way you would have known they'd create something of this magnitude.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''As we got closer to the Land of Steel, all I thought about was what my home would look like, and what I can do once I arrive.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''I thought if Barkat is there then I can return everything to how it once was, but he might not be. We might have to face ruffians who took over the land when there was no master.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''Or it may be exactly as I remember... an empty, desolate land.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''Yes, those were the things I was prepared for... But... But what is this! How dare they violate my land like this!''
*''(...CRASH!)''
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''You coward hiding behind the machine. I know you can hear my voice and you will relay my message.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''As the true Lord of Steel, I will punish the fools who have schemed and violated my land!''
*''(BEEP- WHIR, WHIING)''
*''(...BEEP... BEE- BEE- BEE- BEE-)''
*''(CLANG, CLANG!)''
*{{StoryIcon|Lib}} '''Noah:''' ''Ugh, it's breaking down! Watch out!''
*{{StoryIcon|Clamor3}} '''Clamor:''' ''... Wait, I don’t think it's breaking down.''
*{{StoryIcon|Min}} '''Rose:''' ''The parts are separating...?! It's changing its form. Lu! Quickly! Come down!''
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''Kugh...!!''
*{{StoryIcon|Chv}} '''Ciel:''' ''Lu!!!!''
*''(BEE BEE BEE BEE)''
*''(KWA KWA KWA... BOOM!!!)''
*{{StoryIcon|CC}} '''Chung:''' ''It's flying away?! Stop! Where are you taking Lu?!''
*{{StoryIcon|Chv}} '''Ciel:''' ''If we don't hurry, we're going to lose her! What do we do? Anything?!''
*''(WHIIING--!!)''
*{{StoryIcon|CEs}} '''Eve:''' ''We successfully activated the abandoned airship. Everyone, get on! We will be on pursuit immediately!''

*{{StoryIcon|DB}} '''Add:''' ''.......''
*{{StoryIcon|DB}} '''Add:''' ''(The fact that someone made a Nasod in Mother's resemblance... must mean that someone is the one to attack us, or at the very least, is closely involved.)''
*{{StoryIcon|DB}} '''Add:''' ''(Was the attackers the Order? The Order attacking my family? Since when did they... Damn it!)''
*{{StoryIcon|RaS}} '''Laby:''' ''Add! Wait!''
*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''It's no use. He's not listening at all! I don't think he notices us at all!''
*{{StoryIcon|KE}} '''Elsword:''' ''That idiot. He's the one who always tells me to think before charging ahead, when he's doing exactly that right now!''
*{{StoryIcon|Blu}} '''Ain:''' ''He's been acting strange since encountering that Nasod. Did he meet the Nasod before?''
*{{StoryIcon|KE}} '''Elsword:''' ''This is the first time we've encountered a Nasod in the Demon Realm. The machines in Rigomor... Wait, he's making another turn! Add! Wait!''
*{{StoryIcon|DB}} '''Add:''' ''(This signal... It's close! It's somewhere around here!)''
*{{StoryIcon|DB}} '''Add:''' ''(She should have noticed my approach from this distance, but the signal is not budging...)''
*{{StoryIcon|DB}} '''Add:''' ''(Damn it, you want to do this...?!)''
*{{StoryIcon|Friedrich}} '''???:''' ''.......''
*{{StoryIcon|Friedrich}} '''???:''' ''...Hm, yes. First, I'll start with an introduction. That should be appropriate.''
*{{StoryIcon|Friedrich}} '''???:''' ''Debrian... How many centuries have past? I thought I've forgotten what it means to miss something, but at long last.''
*{{StoryIcon|Friedrich}} '''???:''' ''Ah... When will they arrive?''
