Welcome home, [NAME].
You must have fought a pretty intense battle.
We're all glad to see you're still safe.
The Chief called for you, so please give him your full report.
Pentaglass
...Nice work.
They're still not exactly sure what you fought against last time.
This is what happens when they don't call us for their research.
I sent a strongly-worded complaint over to the Principal Government.
I even criticized Dol Grisen by name!
Hah hah!
They look like they're sorry, though, so it should be all right.
With imbeciles like those, they'd be stupid not to promote me!
Hah hah hah!
Anyway, we're going to explore that white temple. Ravum, was it?
We've been asked to escort another team inside the temple...
...But forget about that, okay?
Just try to look for some clues between there and the Great Shadow.
We got some other jobs, too, but this one takes top priority, okay?

Hello, [NAME].
This next mission will have you escorting a team of researchers.
You'll be inside Ravum Aedes Sacra, their name for the white temple.
There are still a lot of unanswered questions about the temple that
need to be solved, so apparently they need to go back one more time.
Unguis... this temple... I tell you, Ragol may be more peaceful now,
but there's still so much we don't know about it.
The government has stated its intention to move the people of Pioneer 2
down to Ragol once a secure living area has been constructed. Now,
the Arkz are fighting against any environmental changes,
but we can't bring our people down to Ragol
until we can ensure people's safety, right?
I can understand the Arkz's intentions, but...
...I'm sorry. I'm just rambling now.
Anyway, be careful on this escort mission.
I can understand the Arkz's intentions, but...
......
Anyway, be careful on this escort mission.
Kranz
Hey! Hey!
Could I have a private discussion with you?
I'm in deep trouble.
I may not look it, but people say that I attract older women.
You know who I mean?
......
You do, right?
*whisper* Kylria.
......
Hey, what're you looking so disappointed for?
I think Kylria's been looking at me and smiling a lot lately.
No, really!
You know what that means, don't you?
Oh, man! This is bad.
Well, it's not bad, really, but...
Ah well.
I'm a man. I can deal with this.
Huh? What? *whisper*
That's not it?
Why?!!
Oh, sorry, sorry. I didn't mean to shout like that.
Why should I be thinking otherwise?
Huh?
I'm just imagining it all?
Imagining what?
She's not looking at me?
Oh, don't be silly.
She's looking right at me.
I told you myself, didn't I...?
......
...What?
All right. I'll just forget it, then.
...Just forget.
Huh? What am I to forget?
Well, I mean...
Uh... You know.
... ...
It's no big deal.
...All right. I'll forget it...
This conversation never happened.
Don't worry about it.
Hey! Don't say that!
Sil'fer
So are we going to examine the ancient ruins one more time?
There are all sorts of mysterious places on Ragol left to discover.
We might end up having to fight our way out again.
...Okay.
I'll try to be careful!
Ever since the humanoid kidnapping incident last time,
I've been thinking about stuff lately...
I'm a newman, right?
So I got thinking. What is a newman?
What am I really?
What is my sister?
That's what I've been trying to figure out.
What should I believe, and what should I be doing right now...
There's this ancient civilization, there's the Great Shadow...
All these mysteries, right here on Ragol,
and meanwhile I might have teamed up with Break,
or he might have stabbed me, but either way I still have no memory...
There's so much I don't understand. That's the real world for you, huh?
The weird thing is, through all this I managed to remember
my sister's smiling face. Right out of the blue, too.
My memory's not all right there, so it's extremely faint...
When I had that image, I felt so small...
...Like I was this speck floating in the ocean.
I felt like my chest was wide open, and all the water was pouring in.
......
Heheh.
So, I'm still okay. I can still do this, [NAME].
Ino'lis
Teifu's a funny person.
It's hilarious to see him digging his own grave when he speaks.
It's cute, really.
Hehehe.
I'd kinda like to go with him if he ever goes out to fight.
I bet it'd be a laugh riot!
He's on my short list these days, you know?
Kranz?
Forget him. He's a true dimwit! *tsk*
Really. The worst.
He doesn't understand a single thing about me.
I tried so hard for him, too. I'll never forgive him!
Oh, didn't you know?
What do you think he said when I showed him my new earrings?
He said "Huh, maybe they'd look good on Kylria."
......
Can you believe that?!
Ooh, that made me so mad.
So go ahead, Kranz! Go ahead and be with Kylria! I don't care!
I swear. Never been so insulted in my whole life.
......
But you know what? I can't let him go.
It'd break my heart.
I can't hold it back. I've got to tell you.
I think I'm starting to like Kranz.
Do you think...
...Do you think I should be honest with him, Commander?
He's so dimwitted, he won't notice unless I go right up and tell him.
*sigh*
All right. I think I got it.
When I feel I have the courage, I'll try telling him.
I'll tell him that I like him.
Yeah.
I'll give it a shot.
Viviana
Master Saligun is so great. She knows everything!
Fighting, and medicine, and politics, and...
She taught me all kinds of different stuff.
She's done everything!
Heh heh! She's my teacher, after all!
I learned techniques from a different teacher, but...
Master Saligun's still my number-one!
Huh? You heard that I really adore Master Saligun...?
*blush*
Who... told you that?
Teifu. It was Teifu, right?
Oh, I'll give it to him later...
...He'll be hanging tonight!
Saligun
Oh, [NAME]. Ready for a lecture?
Well, in that case, I'll tell you about traps today.
Traps aren't that important an issue during battle,
but it still wouldn't hurt to know about them.
As you may guess, traps are hidden devices set out on the field.
Unless you're a humanoid, it's impossible to detect them before they go off.
When inside a field lock,
if someone steps on a square where a trap has been laid,
the trap will go off immediately.
Traps can have various effects on the person who gets caught in one.
Most of these effects are bad, but some are beneficial, too.
It all depends on luck... and your guessing ability.
If you have a humanoid, you can determine trap types based on color.
It's important to deploy the right team members for each mission.
*sigh*
Oh, I'm sorry. I was just worried a bit.
Worried about Viviana and Memoru. Yes, those two again.
Whenever they meet each other nowadays, they start arguing.
Of course, they're really supposed to be enemies, right?
If this keeps going, they'll never make up with each other...
Hey, [NAME].
How do you think we could restore their friendship?
They're both good girls at heart.
It's just that both of them are a little stubborn...
Stella
Glustar just won't listen to me! Nyah!
He said he's gonna go make another deal...
I begged and pleaded with him not to, nyah!
Why... why doesn't he understand...
Aren't my words good enough for him? Nyah?
Commander... Umm...
......
No. Never mind!
Sorry... Nyah!
Quest:
Guardian 2
From: Government
Mission:
After a thorough investigation of the ancient white
temple, we've found that it is truly a marvel of advanced technology.
However, we do not yet understand its relation to that area, so we're going
to send in another research team, and we'd like you to escort them.
Pre-battle line:
Reiz: Data recovery complete. I'll subdue the enemy now.
Post-mission message:
Hmm, no strange objects this
time... I was hoping we'd find
something. But at least we were
able to retrieve some useful
data. This ancient technology
is quite interesting to study.
Their way of thinking was very
different from ours.
Still, I wonder why the Arkz
were there? Anyway, thanks for
your help. We couldn't have done
it without you!
Researcher Lagnet
Quest:
Development 3
From: Government
Mission:
Unguis Lapis, which you investigated last time, has now
just been slated for residential development. As you can see, we just don't
have the manpower to handle everything alone. We're sorry to call on you
again, but we'd like you to go secure the area and confirm if we can safely
transport our materials there.
Pre-mission message:
Because Unguis Lapis has been
selected as a potential
development area, it's
possible that there may be
increased Arkz activity.
Please take all necessary
precautions, just in case.
I can actually sympathize a bit
with their point of view, but if
we don't build any residential
facilities on Ragol, we'll never
be able to leave this ship.
Pre-battle line:
Glustar: Miss, where are you going? No pedestrians beyond this point.
Post-mission message:
Good work. I've read your
report. The data it contains is
quite interesting. It looks like
we can secure the a large area for
construction by cutting into the
surrounding rocky areas.
We'll study your information
carefully. Thanks again.
Gunther, Development Division
Quest:
Fish Rescue
From: Government
Mission:
We've received word that the rumored giant fish of Tener
Sinus has beached itself on the coast. We want you to go there and protect
it before those despicable Arkz catches it first.
Pre-battle line:
Teifu: L-l-let's settle this peacefully for now, c-c-can we?
Post-mission message:
That was quite a fish! It was so
big, we had trouble rescuing it.
Thanks to you, we were able to
return it to the sea.
But what a stinker that
thing was! Phew!
Anyway, thank you very much for
your assistance.
