Story/Elrianode: Difference between revisions

*'''Hernia''': ''That's right. Please forgive my rudeness. I didn't want anyone to be sacrificed again.''

*'''Elesis''': ''(... Elsword did it to save me...)''

*'''Hernia''': ''I feel the pure and ever-growing power from within the El. That power probably comes from him.... Thanks to Elsword, the El is being restored to its original form. I, too was able to wake up with his power. However... If the El keeps absorbing him, Elsword will eventually disappear.''

*{{StoryIcon|Aisha}} '''Aisha:''' ''Ho, ho, hold on a minute. Elsword will disappear? No way!''

*'''Denif''': ''The El Lady...! You mean Hernia?!''

*'''Artea''': ''Ah, aren't you the El Search Party...?! I can't believe you are here...!''

*'''Denif''': ''Do you... know each other?''

*'''Artea''': ''Master Denif, these are the heroes who saved the priestesses and Elrios multiple times. El Search Party, this is Master Denif, the Water Master who just woke up with Elrianode.''

*{{StoryIcon|Aisha}} '''Aisha:''' ''Master Denif!! We have a request!!''

*'''Denif''': ''...? A request?''

----

*'''Denif''': ''... I've never imagined... Solace was... behind the catastrophe... I knew I should have done something...''

*'''Denif''': ''I understand. Anyone who knows their relationship will. But that doesn't justify their actions. Their personal feeling have caused too many sacrifices.''

*'''Denif''': ''Now is not the time to point fingers, since it's also true that he made efforts to rectify his deed. It would have been truly disastrous if it weren't for the diceon energy. But it's unbelievable that this power of El comes... solely from the boy named Elsword.''

*{{StoryIcon|Rena}} '''Rena:''' ''Please help us, Master Denif!! We must save Elsword.... Even if it makes the El unstable again...''

*'''Add''': ''Tsk, I'm just pointing out the obvious flaw.''

*'''Denif''': ''Of course there's no use calling him from out here. But there's a small dimension rift near the El that resonates with it. Your voices may be able to reach him there...''

*'''Denif''': ''Yes, but that path there is dangerous. Furthermore, it's not guaranteed that your voices will reach him from there.''

*{{StoryIcon|Eve}} '''Eve:''' ''If the possibility is not zero, it's worth a try.''

*'''Eun''': ''Ara, why don't we just leave?''

*'''Eun''': ''No, I mean to stop wasting time on this journey. We can save your brother and go back to the village.''

*'''Eun''': ''Do you event want to save your brother?''

*'''Eun''': ''It just sounds like your are putting it off. If you drag the boy out from the El, the El will become unstable again. That will delay the whole process of saving your brother, won't it? It will be harder and harder to get your brother back to his original self as time passes.''

*'''Eun''': ''Let's just stop and go back. You need to save your brother and rebuild your village. Come on.''

*'''Eun''': ''Why?''

*{{StoryIcon|Eve}} '''Eve:''' ''I said I trusted your choice, but I didn't mean that I would accept your sacrifice.''

*'''Add''': ''Get up, you rascal. You've caused enough trouble to everybody. How bothersome...''

*'''Lu''': ''Come on and get up already! How dare you make me worry!''

*'''Ciel''': ''Wake up, Elsword. There are people outside waiting for you.''

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''You save me...?! Thanks, man! Ah, I mean... Thank you, Master Denif!''

*'''Denif''': ''What an energetic boy! Quite impressive that all of you were able to survive the El Rift. I'm sure the power of El must have tried to stop you from saving Elsword.''

*'''Denif''': ''Yes. The rift is affected by the El energy. It's only a mirage created by the El energy.''

*'''Add''': ''...''

*'''Denif''': ''What...?! The Landar Family...? They are the greatest family of Magicians in all of the Elrian Kingdom! Can't believe you're from the Landar Family... I never thought I'd meet one here.''

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''... I'm not sure what you're talking about, but are you saying Aisha is a great magician?''

*{{StoryIcon|Aisha}} '''Aisha:''' ''Hehehehe... You're all making me blush..''

*'''Denif''': ''Good, you should be able to unseal the Sanctum and check what's inside. I hope that it's something that'll aid in restoring the El.''

*{{StoryIcon|Eve}} '''Eve:''' ''Everyone, I have detected traces of a special element from this area.''

*{{StoryIcon|Aisha}} '''Aisha:''' ''Special element...?! Eve, did you find a clue of the Sanctum.''

*'''Ain''': ''Don't touch anything suspicious, Ms. Fox.... I feel the energy of Henir.''

*{{StoryIcon|Eve}} '''Eve:''' ''Not only Henir, but I'm also detecting multiple unknown elements as well. They are not normal materials that can be found in Elrios.''

*'''Elesis''': ''... Unbelievable... Something huge is soaring from the ground!''

*{{StoryIcon|Rena}} '''Rena:''' ''As expected, it reacted to Elsword's power!''

*'''Lu''': ''That's a REALLY huge door.''

*'''Ciel''': ''Then this is not a coincidence.''

*'''Elesis''': ''I've got a bad feeling about this. The situation may be far more complicated then we initially thought.''

*{{StoryIcon|Rena}} '''Rena:''' ''That thief must have deployed them while making his escape. They are only blocking a single direction.''

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''We may be able to catch the thief if we move as we clear the monsters ahead. Let's make is quick!''

*'''Add''': ''Tsk...! How... annoying.''

*'''Lu''': ''It's just hard to move because of the water. I'm not having trouble because I'm weaker than those vermin! Uuu...''

*{{StoryIcon|Rena}} '''Rena:''' ''Add!''

*'''Denif''': ''Of course, not all Water Dragons are fond of this world. But it's unlikely that the Dragons, who care about the balance of the world, would have played along with people who can't be trusted.''

*'''Add''': ''It may not have been the Water Dragon. They may have known about it before the Water Dragon did.''

*'''Elesis''': ''... You say it as if that's a fact, Add.''

*'''Artea''': ''Henir's Order... I've never heard of them in Elrios ever since the great explosion.''

*'''Denif''': ''Yes. There were some fanatics who sought to overload the El in the past, but I never thought they would turn humans into monsters...''

*'''Denif''': ''The only ones that were sealed were us, the Masters, because we exhausted our energies into the shattered El. It's likely that they have been active since then.''

*{{StoryIcon|Chung}} '''Chung:''' ''... If that is the case, why did they wait until now to show up? They must have had ample time...''

*{{StoryIcon|Chung}} '''Chung:''' ''What should we do...? Is there any way to stop it?''

*'''Glave''': ''It's simply, find the cause and get rid of it.''

*{{StoryIcon|Aisha}} '''Aisha:''' ''What would happen if Henir's influence grows larger?''

*'''Glave''': ''You may think Henir is dangerous because it's the opposite of Elria, but it's actually not what you think. Elria created this world using Henir's Chaos and chaos is an infinite source of energy. So, this world already contains some aspects of Henir.''

*'''Glave''': ''Really? I'd like to see you try. Before you even begin, you're very existence will be devoured by the chaos of Henir. Kuhuhu.''

*'''Elesis''': ''Ugh... It feels like there are two Adds... This is giving me a headache...''

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''... If you have to keep your word, we can't force you to talk. However, you wouldn't care if we find it ourselves, right?''

*'''Elesis''': ''What?! Wait, Elsword!''

*'''Elesis''': ''Huhu. Aisha, we'll also do our best, so cheer up and let's go get the ring back!''

*{{StoryIcon|Aisha}} '''Aisha:''' ''Okay!''

*{{StoryIcon|Rena}} '''Rena:''' ''Huh? Ah, no, it's not a big deal....''

*{{StoryIcon|Rena}} '''Rena:''' ''Mm... I thought I sensed someone familiar when we were in the Sanctum... I was wondering who that was...''

*{{StoryIcon|Rena}} '''Rena:''' ''N, no~ It's nothing like that... Just someone that was closer...... Like the Wind Spirit...?''

*{{StoryIcon|Rena}} '''Rena:''' ''Maybe I was just imagining things. It doesn't make sense that a spirit would be in a place like this. Let's report our findings to Master Denif.''

----

*'''Elesis''': ''Are they... looking to destroy the world...?''

*'''Denif''': ''Actually, they have invaded the El a few times before the great explosion.''

*'''Denif''': ''That's right, I'm sure they are trying to throw the world into chaos and destroy it.''

*'''Ignia''': ''Master Denif, we're in danger...!''

*'''Elesis''': ''We'd better defeat the monsters and find the cause. Everybody ready?!''

*{{StoryIcon|Rena}} '''Rena:''' ''Always.''

*'''Lu''': ''Let them come, I'll destroy every last one of them!''

*'''Add''': ''Leave me some for lab samples.''

*{{StoryIcon|Chung}} '''Chung:''' ''Damn it... I think they plan to keep attacking us until we're worn out.''

*{{StoryIcon|Raven}} '''Raven:''' ''If this keeps up, they'll take over the entire district of the city.''

*{{StoryIcon|Raven}} '''Raven:''' ''The outskirts is a vast area. Let's keep up the pace.''

*{{StoryIcon|Chung}} '''Chung:''' ''... But where are the other Masters? It looks like Denif is having trouble by himself, too...... It also looks like it'd be hard for Master Solace to become free of guilt until all the Masters have gathered... If they have been awakened at the outskirts of Elrianode, as Master Denif predicted, would they be beyond Henir's Barrier?''

*'''Elesis''': ''Well, I think it's a good thing, because it means that you'll be more understanding of others.''

*'''Ain''': ''(...... Nonsense. There's no way a demon can change.)''

*{{StoryIcon|Chung}} '''Chung:''' ''(......)''

*{{StoryIcon|Rena}} '''Rena:''' ''!! Hey, look! There is a huge monster.''

*{{StoryIcon|Rena}} '''Rena:''' ''Phew, what a relief! The monsters won't come into the city anymore, right?''

*{{StoryIcon|Chung}} '''Chung:''' ''Ah...! Hold on, the monster is trying to self-destruct!''

*{{StoryIcon|Raven}} '''Raven:''' ''What out! Rena!!''

----

*{{StoryIcon|Aisha}} '''Aisha:''' ''Before?! Didn't the Masters wake up with Elrianode?''

*'''Ventus''': ''Well, I had Lincy and Rena~''

*{{StoryIcon|Rena}} '''Rena:''' ''No way... I had no idea it was Master Ventus...''

*{{StoryIcon|Aisha}} '''Aisha:''' ''Rena, do you know anything about it?''

*'''Denif''': ''I don't know how many times I've told you this, Ventus, but please behave like a Master. So, how did you end up with the El Search Party?''

*'''Ventus''': ''Right, I was going to tell you that. I thought Henir's Order had something to do with the Great Explosion. So, I started to search for the sealed Elrianode. So, I started to search for the sealed Elrianode to track them down. While I was tracking down Elrianode, I encountered a suspicious group of people that I suspected to be Henir's Order and shadowed them for a long time. When Elrianode suddenly reappeared, they became active, as I expected. I followed them all the way to the Sanctum. I met the El Search Party there, but I wouldn't have helped them if I didn't recognized Rena. You know I don't trust easily, right? Huhu.''

*'''Denif''': ''Is that so? Let me take a look.... You did good, Ventus. Hm... but this 'relic' seems like an ordinary stone. Why would the Order want this...''

*'''Ventus''': ''This IS something special, Denif. Check the bottom of the stone.''

*'''Zero''': ''But it's strange that there are no guards outside. That usually means...''

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''Maybe they don't know where the entrance is yet?''

*'''Elesis''': ''Or they have gotten whatever they were looking for and left already...''

*{{StoryIcon|Chung}} '''Chung:''' ''... Whatever the case, there is a possibility of an ambush.''

*'''Elesis''': ''Huh?! Elsword, you too?! Elsword, wait! We should not be separated!''

*{{StoryIcon|Raven}} '''Raven:''' ''Elsword!! Lu! Ciel!''

*{{StoryIcon|Chung}} '''Chung:''' ''What?! Wait, Ara, don't!''

*{{StoryIcon|Rena}} '''Rena:''' ''What just happened...?''

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''Lu!! Wait!!''

*'''Lu''': ''Wait, why is Elsword here?''

*'''Ciel''': ''Huh? Ara, too?''

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''Pant... pant... Lu, I'm sorry about Ain. I apologize on his behalf. Let's just go back.''

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''Ciel, talk her out of it. It's too dangerous for us to be alone!''

*'''Ciel''': ''I think so, too... But if Lu has made up her mind, I need to support her. Sorry, Elsword.''

*'''Lu''': ''...... You're all misunderstanding the situation. I'm not here because of Ain's outburst.''

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''Huh? Then why...''

*'''Lu''': ''And, of course, I wasn't thrilled to hear something like that. But, I'm already used to being hated because of the fact that I'm a demon, so you don't need to worry about that.''

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''... Lu...''

*'''Lu''': ''But something's bothering me about Ain. I came here to see if there's any clue here that may have caused Ain's current state.''

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''(Oh, Lu... was worried about Ain all along.)''

*'''Ciel''': ''Everyone, watch out! A monster ahead...!''

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''Tsk, monsters are everywhere...''

----

*'''Lu''': ''Look, there are some engraved letters.''

*'''Lu''': ''Hold on a second. Mm... I see. The instructions to unlock the secret wall is written here.''

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''Are those letters demonic...?''

----

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''This is...!''

|contents1=

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''Whoa, a chamber in a place like this...?''

*'''Ciel''': ''Looking at all the dust, I'm guessing this place has been deserted for a long time... Unlike outside, it hasn't had any recent visitors.''

*'''Lu''': ''Unless they are able to read demonic letters, they wouldn't know a place like this was hiding here.''

*'''Ciel''': ''Probably it was someone that couldn't be replaced? Or that researcher could have kept it a secret that they knew demonic letters...''

*'''Lu''': ''Yes, that's a possibility. But there's another possibility.''

*'''Lu''': ''Yes, that's right, Ara.''

*'''Lu''': ''That's what I'm wondering. Henir, I understand, but what does the demon realm have to do with any of this...?''

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''Lu, this chamber is completely empty except for the desk at that corner.... Huh? What's this? Lu, there's something similar to the Seed of Life laying on the floor. But... it looks a little different.''

*'''Ciel''': ''Glave did tell us that the seed had been tinkered with... This one might be the one before that happened.''

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''But why is it here?''

*'''Lu''': ''Give it here. I'll take a look............. Hm. Just as I thought. What does it say? It looks like this chamber was hidden by a Debrian who knew demonic letters.''

*'''Ciel''': ''Really? What did that Debrian research with demonic letters?!''

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''What is it, Lu? I'm dying of curiosity.''

*'''Lu''': ''I don't think it's the right place to talk about it. We can discuss this when we meet up with everyone. Hm? Something's written on the back.......... The autor had been experimenting on the passage and came in contact with the ones related to Henir's Order. It says everything written here is what the author heard from them.''

*'''Lu''': ''As time passed, the author realized how dangerous their plan was. They suggested experimenting with a monstrous object on the passage that could possibly lead to the world's destruction, and that object was...''

*'''Ciel''': ''... The Seed of Life?''

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''The El energy...? But doesn't this seed activate by devouring people?''

*'''Lu''': ''If the legend is correct, every being in the world was created by Elria. Though it would no be as much as the Elrians, every human would have a certain amount of the El energy. This journal also mentions the nature of the power of Henir as well.... These people must have researched on the power coming from Henir's Passage for a very long time....... Just like I thought, Ain's abnormal symptoms may have been caused by the power of Henir.''

*'''Lu''': ''Well... I've read it till the end, but it doesn't say anything about that... Ah, Ciel, you said you found the seed earlier? Let me take a look.''

*'''Ciel''': ''Huh? This...? Here you go. What are you going to do with it...?''

*'''Lu''': ''Huhu, this seed might come in handy. We've looked everywhere, let's go back!''

*'''Ciel''': ''Uh oh, the Nasod Patrols somehow made it all the way here.''

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''Hmpf, what a nuisance. Get lost! We're busy!''

*'''Ain''': ''(He's right... The hatred engraved in my subconscious is something that I must fight on my own.... Not for the sake of a mere emissary with a mission, but for the sake of 'Ain'.)''

*'''Lu''': ''It's fine, It can't be helped if you feel uncomfortable with me for whenever has happened to you. But I've never thought that I should side with demons simply because I'm a demon. If anything like that happens, I'll fight alongside all of you. You all are my comrades, after all.''

*'''Lu''': ''So, if the only reason that you feel uncomfortable with me is because I'm a demon, think of me as Luciela, not a demon.''

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

*'''Lu''': ''Kyaaa!!! Why would you tell them that, Ciel?!''

*{{StoryIcon|Rena}} '''Rena:''' ''Ha... haha... That's why you couldn't go back, Lu...''

*{{StoryIcon|Aisha}} '''Aisha:''' ''If that's the case... then it all makes sense that they suddenly became active and obsessed over the Primal El.''

*{{StoryIcon|Chung}} '''Chung:''' ''It seems they are plotting something really dangerous. We must stop them, no matter what.''

*'''Lu''': ''Come to think oft it, both Chung and Ara's families suffered from demons, right? Don't worry. I will save your families and punish those who did such evil deeds...!!''

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

*'''Ain''': ''......''

*{{StoryIcon|Rena}} '''Rena:''' ''Ain, why are you zoning out? Is something bothering you?''

*'''Denif''': ''...? What's wrong?''

*{{StoryIcon|Raven}} '''Raven:''' ''We thought Henir's Order would surely attack this place, so we hurried ourselves back here.''

*'''Sasha''': ''Come to think of it... would... Sir Helputt be in the demon realm?''

*{{StoryIcon|Chung}} '''Chung:''' ''...!!!''

*'''Sasha''': ''Everyone looked for Sir Helputt after you, the El Search Party, had left Hamel, but he was nowhere to be found... I thought it was strange... He would never leave Hamel as long as he is in the Elrios continent.''

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

*'''Lu''': ''Hm... Considering that I haven't heard from the demon commanders again... the demons probably have lost momentum after they were defeated by us and gone back to the demon realm to recuperate their troops.''

*{{StoryIcon|Chung}} '''Chung:''' ''(... Would my father really be in the demon realm?)''

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''That means we can find Ran and Chung's father in the demon realm, right?!''

*'''Elesis''': ''Kugh...! It's tough!''

*{{StoryIcon|Eve}} '''Eve:''' ''It's similar to the ones we encountered in the Sanctum and Elrianode City, except that it's enhanced.''

*'''Add''': ''This bastard...''

*'''Hennon''': ''I was on my way to take the El from the tower anyways. It'll be annoying to have you fools constantly bothering me.''

*'''Elesis''': ''(The El will be in danger if we don't stop him here...!!)''

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''Tsk, you're the annoying one! Fine, you better one run away! We're going to beat you down for good!''

*{{StoryIcon|Aisha}} '''Aisha:''' ''Sigh... Although I expected it... It may take a little longer to retrieve the ring. Whoever has the ring better take good care of it until I get it back.''

*{{StoryIcon|Eve}} '''Eve:''' ''I'd better prepare myself, too. I won't forgive the ones that used my siblings to feather their own nests.''

*'''Add''': ''...... (This time, I'll make sure to get the energy to go back to the past.... At all costs.)''

----

*{{StoryIcon|Raven}} '''Raven:''' ''I believe in you. You have a good heart. I'm sure you'll be able to follow your own belief.''

*{{StoryIcon|Chung}} '''Chung:''' ''Thank you! I'll do my best!''

*{{StoryIcon|Chung}} '''Chung:''' ''And Ara,''

*{{StoryIcon|Chung}} '''Chung:''' ''Let's keep doing our best. You and I both have family to save from the demon realm!''

*{{StoryIcon|Chung}} '''Chung:''' ''... My head is still a mess, but I'm going to focus on one thing for now. Saving my father.... Somehow, I think this is what my father would have wanted. He values a strong and righteous mind better than anyone. That's why I'm going to pour everything I've got to this one belief. That will make both myself and my Guardian Stone stronger just as much as my father trusted me.''

*{{StoryIcon|Chung}} '''Chung:''' ''... Aw, don't give me such a sad look. I'm not going to forgive Ran, okay? There's no use stopping me, I'll still smack him, probably a lot.''

*{{StoryIcon|Chung}} '''Chung:''' ''Haha, thanks. Then you should try your best to bring Ran back for now. That way, I can save my father, too.''

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''Sis, all we have left to do is to get to the demon realm, right?''

*'''Elesis''': ''... I guess it's unavoidable... Elsword, I think we really shouldn't go to the demon realm.''

----

*{{StoryIcon|Elsword}} '''Elsword:''' ''Then, everybody has decided?''

*{{StoryIcon|Eve}} '''Eve:''' ''Of course.''

*{{StoryIcon|Rena}} '''Rena:''' ''Alright. Thankfully, everyone agreed.''

*'''Elesis''': ''That's right! I felt like I saw someone training pass by.''

*'''Denif''': ''The countless Elrians that visited the Sanctum were imprinted like an afterimage. It happened thanks to the traits of the El. It's one of many powers of the El energy. It's like receiving teachings directly from the El.''

*'''Denif''': ''Not necessarily. It's just easier to find because the Elrian Sanctum is an Elriabrunnr. In your current state, you will be able to find it anywhere the El energy resides.''

*'''Ciel''': ''What about the Demon Realm? There's no El energy there, does that mean there's no unique power there?''
