Chapter 14

## World Map Text
After rescuing Guinevere and Cecilia, Roy
headed towards the Nabata desert, following
Sophia's lead.
According to Sophia, there was a
hidden oasis in the desert,
and that's where her village, Arcadia,
was located.
However, at the time, Arcadia was
under attack by Bern's forces.
Their aim may be the Dragons
that are said to inhabit the village.
Although the Lycia Alliance Army moved
as quickly as they could towards Arcadia,
a vicious sandstorm stood in their way.

## Intro 1
\g[Altar?]
\f[#|Igrene]\m[6|5]\w[16]\f[#|Fae]
\s[#]
Hurry Fa!|/n
If you follow this path,/n
there is a place to hide.|
Can you make it there?|

\s[#]
But...|/n
Fae's tired!|

\s[#]
Don't be stubborn.|/n
Now go, or else Bern's/n
soldiers might find us.|

\s[#]
What about Sophia?|

\s[#]
I don't know...|/n
Maybe she was caught by/n
Bern's troops.|

\s[#]
If we get caught by Bern, then/n
can we see the outside world?|

\s[#]
Fae, no.|/n
The elder said that we mustn't/n
communicate with the outside world.|

\s[#]
Aw...|/n
Please?|

\s[#]
No.|/n
...But I wonder how Bern/n
found out about our village...|/n
Perhaps it has something to do/n
with the ominous 'force' that/n
Sophia said she detected/n
from the soldiers...|

\s[#]
What's wrong?|

\s[#]
!|/n
I shouldn't be thinking about/n
such matters now!|/n
Fa!|/n
Over here, hurry!|

\s[#]
... Fae wants to see/n
outside world too.|

## Intro 2
\g[Room]
\f[#|Zeiss]\m[6|5]\w[16]\f[#|Randy]
\s[#]
Zeiss!|/n
Hasn't General Narcian arrived yet?|

\s[#]
A band of mercenaries and some/n
Dragons have arrived as/n
reinforcements, but General/n
Narcian's group hasn't arrived yet.|

\s[#]
What is he doing?|/n
He must know it is impossible to/n
take over the village with/n
such a small army like this...|

\s[#]
......|

\s[#]
Anyway, we must inform the King/n
about the Dragons that live here.|/n
Zeiss, I want you to go to Aquleia/n
and report to King Zephiel.|

\s[#]
What do you want/n
me to say?|

\s[#]
Dragons do indeed inhabit/n
this village.|/n
According to a captive, there are/n
also sidns of 'Divine Dragons,'/n
the most powerful even among Dragons.|
... Tell him that.|

\s[#]
Yes sir.|

\s[#]
Make it quick.|

## Intro 3
\g[-]
\f[#|Sophia]\m[6|5]\w[16]\f[#|Roy]
\s[#]
This is some sandstorm.|

\s[#]
Yes... this sandstorm has always/n
protected our village from intruders.|

\s[#]
Well, it must be a pain trying/n
to look for a village in this mess.|/n
I can't see three meters ahead...|/n
So in which direction do we move?|

\s[#]
Yes...|/n
Head to the Northeast...|/n
But...|

\s[#]
But?|

\s[#]
There may be many things/n
hidden in the sand, blown/n
around by the sandstorm...|/n
Please be careful where you step.|

## Scene 1
\g[-]
\f[#|Sophia]
\s[#]
Something...is glittering in the sand...|/n
Oh...|/n
A beautiful ring...|

## House W
\g[House]
\f[#|Visitor]\f[#|Villager_ApprenticeM]
\s[#]
There are a lot of things/n
buried in the sand.|/n
If you're really lucky, you might/n
find something.|/n
Try looking around/n
the bones.|

## House E
\g[House]
\f[#|Visitor]\f[#|Villager_ApprenticeM]
\s[#]
Have yuo heard of the sky god,/n
Delphi?|/n
He is an ancient god said to race/n
through the vast sky and protect/n
all living things.|/n
They say that with his blessing,/n
wyverns and pegasi can fly freely/n
without danger...|

## Scene 1 - Turn 7
\g[-]
\f[#|Rose]\f[#|Maggie]
\s[#]
Maggie my dear, did we not see someone/n
head towards the middle of the desert?|

\s[#]
Yes, Rose, you are most correct.|

\s[#]
Then, Maggie, it must be true that/n
there is a hidden village around here.|

\s[#]
Bless my soul, Rose,/n
I believe you are correct.|

\s[#]
But my dear Maggie, we don't want/n
to get lost in the sandstorm, do we?|

\s[#]
Of course not, Rose.|/n
Then we wouldn't be able to/n
find our way home.|

\s[#]
Well then, Maggie, do you think we/n
should pass up the hidden village?|

\s[#]
My dear Rose, you forget/n
there are rumors of vast/n
treasures hidden in this village.|

\s[#]
Well, we certainly don't want to/n
miss that, do we, Maggie?|

\s[#]
Of course not, Rose.|/n
We could make a lot more money/n
through that than by mugging/n
travelers.|

\s[#]
But we don't want to get/n
lost either, do we Maggie?|

\s[#]
My dear Rose,/n
I have an idea.|/n
We may follow the peple/n
we saw heading into/n
the desert earlier.|

\s[#]
That's a wonderful idea, Maggie.|/n
And once we reach the village,/n
we can thank them by smashing/n
their heads in.|

\s[#]
Of course, my dear Rose.|

\s[#]
Well then, Maggie,/n
shall we be off?|

\s[#]
Why certainly,/n
my dear Rose.|

\s[#]
Certainly,/n
my dear Maggie.|

## Scene 1
\g[-]
\f[#|Roy]\f[#|Merlinus]
\s[#]
The sandstorm... it stopped.|

\s[#]
This is our chance, Master Roy!|/n
We can see the village clearly now!|

\s[#]
But so can the enemy.|/n
We have to hurry!|

## Rose Defeated
\f[#|Rose]
\s[#]
Bless my soul, Rose...|/n
It hurts, does it not?|

## Maggie Defeated
\f[#|Maggie]
\s[#]
Bless my soul, Maggie...|/n
It hurts, does it not?|

## Vs Randy
\f[#|Randy]
\s[#]
My sword is invincible.|/n
Now, choose your death.|/n
By the blade.../n
or by its light?|

## Randy Defeated
\f[#|Randy]
\s[#]
I am glad...that I could/n
meet one as strong as you.../n
before my death.|

## Outro 1
\g[Room]
\f[#|Roy]\w[16]
\f[#|Sophia]
\s[#]
He was a tough opponent.../n
but we won.|/n
Sophia, where are the/n
inhabitants of the village?|

\s[#]
.....|

\s[#]
What's wrong?|

\s[#]
... The entrance to the temple...|

\s[#]
This door...|/n
It looks like it has been/n
forced open.|/n
What lies inside this temple?|

\s[#]
There is something we call the/n
Divine Weapon...|/n
It is a spell book.|

\s[#]
Divine Weapon!?|/n
There was one here, too?!|/n
... Then that must be/n
what Bern was after!|/n
In that case,/n
we may be too late...|

\s[#]
...The Divine Weapon is still here....|

\s[#]
All right!|/n
Let's go!|/n
We may still be able/n
to stop Bern!|

## Outro 2
\g[Castle]
\f[#|Roy]\w[16]
\f[#|Elder]
\f[#|Igrene]
\f[#|Fae]
\s[#]
Who are you?|/n
How did you enter?|

\s[#]
My name is Roy.|/n
I came with Sophia to protect/n
this village.|

\s[#]
With Sophia...?|/n
Then it was you who drove/n
off Bern's soldiers?|/n
Oh...|/n
Please forgive my impudence.|/n
I am the Elder of Arcadia.|

\s[#]
Elder...|/n
Then you are the Dragon?|

\s[#]
Dragon...|/n
They once called me that|/n
But that is a story of a time/n
long since past.|

\s[#]
.....|

\s[#]
Let me see...|/n
The only real Dragon/n
we have is Fa right here.|

\s[#]
Hi...|

\s[#]
This little girl is a Dragon?|

\s[#]
Yes, although she is/n
far from the amture form.|

\s[#]
Elder, do you know anything/n
about the Dragons in Bern?|

\s[#]
What!?|/n
There are Dragons in Bern?|

\s[#]
Yes, we have seen them.|

\s[#]
Why...?|/n
Dragons do not exist anywhere/n
except here.|

\s[#]
Elder,/n
if I may.|

\s[#]
What is it, Igrene?|

\s[#]
Sophia said that she could detect an/n
evil force coming from Bern's troops.|/n
That may have something to do with the/n
Dragons Roy says he saw in Bern's army.|

\s[#]
Perhaps...|/n
But I am too old to detect/n
such force now.|

\s[#]
'Force'? What is that?|

\s[#]
Sophia is half dragon, half human.|/n
That gives her the ability to detect/n
the pulses emitted from other Dragons.|/n
But because she cannot detect them/n
clearly, she only said that she felt a/n
force... twisted and unnatural.|

\s[#]
I think that you should/n
look into it.|/n
Elder, if you would allow it,/n
I would like to ask to join/n
Roy and look into Bern for myself.|

\s[#]
I really do not want to deal/n
with the matters of the outside...|/n
But this is a time of emergency.|/n
Well then Roy, will you take her?|

\s[#]
Certainly.|

\s[#]
I am Igrene,/n
the Guardian of Nabata.|/n
I have confidence in my skills/n
with the bow.|/n
I believe I may be of some/n
help in battle.|

\s[#]
Thank you.|

\s[#]
Fa's going too!|

\s[#]
What are you saying?|/n
Of course you many not.|/n
There is no telling what could/n
happen if your existence were/n
exposed to the world!|

\s[#]
......|

\s[#]
Well then,/n
let's go.|

\s[#]
Yes.|

\s[#]
...Fine...|/n
Fae will just follow/n
them anyway!|
