Episode I - Subplot - Bernie
[If you told Sue your name, you can do this subplot.]
[Unsealed Door]
[Mine 2]
[after having talked with Sue]
Bernie:
-I think... Have I met you before... hmm?
I'm not very good at remembering people, but I think I know you.
Is she your friend? I mean the girl who was talking to you.
Could you tell me what she was talking to you about?
I'm just curious...
[choice]
>No, sorry...
......
Right. You're not obligated to tell me.
I'm sorry. Forget about it.
[disappears]
[you can't continue with the subplot until you tell him]
>Sure.
Hmmm, Sue... no, I mean, she gave you a warning...
Do you know what Black Paper is?
Underground traders who sell weapons, and parts of androids and slaves.
No individual runs it. It's a syndicate that runs a black market.
Black Hound is an android that was created solely for battle.
I heard that Pioneer 2 had one.
I don't know what you want, but be careful if you want to stay alive.
......
Just one more thing to tell you.
That girl is a member of Black Paper. Be careful.
[disappears]
[Waterfall Tears]
[city]
Sue:
-Oh, Hi...
I didn't expect to find you here...
......
What? Do you have anything to tell me?
[choice]
>Nothing.
Are you sure?
>About Black Paper.
......
Black Paper? I know it.
They're traders who sell weapons, and parts of androids and slaves.
No one actually runs it. It's a syndicate that runs a black market.
That's all I know about it. And? Is there a reason you asked?
......
Sue:[if you answered "Nothing."]
-...Huh?
Anything else?
[go to choice]
Sue:[if you answered "About Black Paper."]
-Can I leave now?
[disappears]
[Cave 1]
Bernie:
-Hey, it's you.
You're safe... guess you haven't met the Black Hound face-to-face yet.
It's an assassin of Black Paper.
What did you do? Why are you being followed by one?
Perhaps... you knew or saw something regarding Pioneer 1, right?
You don't look like you're even aware of it.
Ha ha, you look so confused. Do you want to know more?
[choice]
>Yes.
It's strange, but I trust you. Let me tell you about this...
As you may know, Black Paper isn't just a normal group of traders.
It is another facet of 10-nation-alliance.
Black Paper also has assassins that're used by various organizations.
Are you still confused? In short...
Black Paper is under the same people that worked on the Pioneer Project.
That's everything.
But I suspect that these accidents on Ragol are not coincidences.
And I know Black Paper is looking for something underneath the ground.
...that girl, too...
There must be something there. Perhaps you're getting too close to it.
Whatever it is, it must be holding the secret...
>No.
If you're not interested, that's OK. Forget about it.
But...
Be careful.
[you can't continue with the subplot until you answer "Yes."]
Bernie:[if you answered "Yes."]
-Be careful, anyway.
I'm working with a guy to crack open this case.
It would be great if you could help us out... See you later.
Bernie:[if you answered "No."]
-Be careful.
[Black Paper]
[city]
[Sue will be there if you talked to her in Waterfall Tears and made her
disappear]
Sue:
-...You again...
[NAME]?
Are you following me? It doesn't seem like it'll work.
Just kidding.
What?
Oh, please! What do you really want to know!?
[choice]
>Why were you onboard?
Why was I on Pioneer 2? I had no real reason.
I just wanted to leave our planet. I wanted to see something new.
That's it. So I joined the Pioneer 2 project.
May I go now?
[disappears]
>What's your purpose?
My purpose?
Just research. Personal research.
I want to know what's living undeground on Ragol.
That's it.
I'm going to the ruins. I don't need any help.
......
I have to go now.
[disappears]
>Nothing.
Are you sure? Well, OK then.
[disappears]
[Cave 1]
Bernie:
-Oh! It's you again. You're still alive.
I don't recall hearing your name before...
I'm Barnie. It's not my real name, but everybody calls me Barnie. You?
[NAME], eh? Nice name.
By the way, do you remember what I said to you the other day?
Like I said, I'm helping someone who's trying to solve the Ragol cases.
Can you help us? It's not a bad idea because...
Uh...
[earthquake]
Sorry, I have to go. Talk to you soon. Bye, [NAME]!
[disappears]
[Knowing One's Heart]
[Mine 1]
Bernie:
-[NAME]! You're so tough!
One of my comrades died. I'm not real happy now.
It's very dangerous around here.
Hey, have you seen the monsters down below? I haven't seen any yet.
There's lots of debris from Pioneer 1. What happened there?
......
Pioneer 1 was mining something. The ruins... Destroyed Pioneer 1.
We need more info.
Oh, I've got to go!
Sorry. I'm looking for my company.
I'll see you later. Don't get killed! OK?
Bye!
[disappears]
[Seek my Master]
Bernie:[lying down]
-It's you again [NAME]...
Ha, ha, ha... It's a shame... I made a mistake.
To tell the truth, I had no interest in Ragol, or the government...
I just wanted to help Zoke. He was my benefactor.
I wanted to help Zoke, but I was just too weak...
-...Shino ...Zo...ke...
......
[The Retired Hunter]
[city]
Bernie:
-Hey, [NAME].
You looked shocked.
Yeah, I'm surprised that I'm still alive... Unbelievable...
Well, I gotta keep busy while I'm still alive...
Bernie:[if you are with Donoph]
-... ... ...[turns to Donoph]
You don't have to worry.
... ... ...
Plus, she's a strong woman...
Donoph:
-... ... ...
Bernie:
-... ... ...
This is all I can do now.
to tell you the truth...
I don't ever want to see those girls running around after you.
Alicia:[if Donoph is with you]
-Donoph...
[NAME], Donoph needs your help.
[Ruins 3]
[if you answered "!!", you will see this alternate ending when you and Donoph
go back to the entrance]
Donoph:
-Cough! Cough!![you stop before the door as Donoph stops]
That's it, 10000 monsters!
I can't believe it. I've finally fulfilled my dream.
[NAME]?[turns to you]
You know Alicia, right?
I really appreciate you coming with me today.
I couldn't have done this without you.
[press A]
And I couldn't do anything to help her.
I couldn't even help her to find her father... Heathcliff...
And that incident really didn't help her, either.
She thought that Rico stole her father...
She may look strong, but on the inside, she's not what she appears to be.
[turns away from you, press A]
I only wish that kid, who I taught the double sword technique,
will become a fine soldier like Heathcliff was.
But he was only able to learn a little from me...
Now it is your turn!
[you and Donoph walk into the passageway]
The destiny of this world and Pioneer 2 lies in your hands.
The future depends on you.
Heath, who remained with the government,
Zoke, who fought against the government,
and I, who avoided all the political conflicts,
we all ended our lives on this common ground. Ha ha ha...
Cough! Cough!!
You may receive your reward at the Guild.
Leave me here. I wish to rest. To pass away as a Hunter.
Ending my life on the battlefield...
Zoke, Heath, don't start the party without me...
...
[NAME]:
-!!
[Donoph falls down as you run to him, and dies]
[city]
Bernie:
-He's dead.
He was such a worthless old man.
... ... ...
Zoke Miyama, Heathcliff Flowen,
Donoph Baz...
Heroes of the past...
[claim reward]
Narrator:
-You've been awarded 18000 Meseta.
