Phantagrande Skydom - Lumacie Archipelago
Nameless Ruins, Blackmoon Forest
Act 1: Girl in Blue - Chapter 16: The Sacred Tree - Episode 1
(Captain) and the crew rely on Lyria sensing Leviathan's power to track down Orchis. But with the power growing faint, they must hurry.
Lyria follows Leviathan's power, leading the crew closer to Orchis.
Lyria: We have to hurry... I can feel it growing fainter.
Lyria: We'll have no way to find her if it disappears!
Katalina: We have to get to the Black Knight before she leaves Lumacie.
Katalina: If she gets off the ground, it's going to be impossible for us to keep up the chase.
Vyrn: Then let's get moving! Hop to it, (Captain)!
Act 1: Girl in Blue - Chapter 16: The Sacred Tree - Episode 1: Scene 2
An endless stream of monsters slows the crew's progress. Rosetta says the Black Knight introduced monsters into the forest to trip up the crew.
Monster: Groooar!
Eugen: Monsters, huh? And tougher than usual from the looks of things.
Rosetta: This is the Black Knight's work. She's certainly outdone herself this time.
Rosetta: She brought them especially for us. They're not native to this forest.
Eugen: They're not native, eh? You seem pretty sure about that.
Rosetta: Of course I am! I know everything there is to know about this forest.
Eugen: Is that so? Sounds like there's plenty more you haven't shared with us yet.
Rosetta: I could say the same of you, couldn't I? Not that we have time to bicker about such things at a time like this.
Eugen: Ha-ha! Got that right! Let's scatter these critters, (Captain)! Stay sharp!
Act 1: Girl in Blue - Chapter 16: The Sacred Tree - Episode 2
Lyria no longer senses Leviathan's power. But after revealing how much she knows of the forest, Rosetta offers to guide them to the Black Knight's airship.
Lyria: Oh!
Katalina: What's wrong, Lyria? You aren't hurt, are you?
Lyria: No, I just... can't sense Leviathan's power anymore.
Rosetta: Don't fret, Lyria. Come this way. I'll guide you all from here.
Lyria: Huh? But... how?
Rosetta: Aren't you forgetting something? Who was it that took Orchis from the Black Knight's airship in the first place?
Rosetta: If she wants to leave Lumacie, she'll have to use that airship.
Rosetta: And did you forget? I promised to guide you to where you need to go.
Io: Awesome, Rosetta! You're not just some shady kidnapper after all!
Rosetta: I'm going to remember that, little one...
Io: Yikes...
Rosetta: I'll show you the way. Stay close, now!
Act 1: Girl in Blue - Chapter 16: The Sacred Tree - Episode 2: Scene 2
(Captain) and the crew make their way toward the Black Knight's airship. But Rackam has doubts as to whether they should be chasing Orchis in the first place.
Katalina: Rosetta! How long is it going to take us to get to the airship?
Rosetta: Just a teensy bit further... so long as we don't run into any monsters.
Vyrn: Okay! Just keep up the pace, and we'll find the Black Knight in no—
Rackam: Hey, uh... Can I just ask one thing before we get this wild knight chase underway?
Vyrn: What's up? You look like something's bothering you.
Rackam: We're chasing after the Black Knight because she took Orchis, right?
Rackam: But wasn't it our plan to return Orchis to her in the first place?
Rackam: Isn't it safe to say we already accomplished our mission?
Rackam: I'm not sure it's wise to keep sticking our noses where they don't belong at this point.
Katalina: That's... Well... you might be right, actually.
Rackam: And what do we do after we get Orchis back? Take her with us?
Rackam: I'm pretty sure they call that kidnapping. Stop me if I'm wrong...
Lyria: ...
Lyria: We... might not have thought this one through...
Lyria: But still... we can't just let her go!
Lyria: I haven't really thought about what we'll do after we get her back... but we can figure that out later!
Lyria: What I do know is that I miss her! And I want to see her! That's why I'm going after her!
Rackam: ...
Rackam: Ha-ha! Sounds about right to me! I guess that's that, so let's get back to the chase!
Vyrn: Golly, Rackam! You really had us going there for a second.
Rackam: Sorry about that... But I don't want to let Orchis go either. Lyria and I are on the same page.
Rackam: All I'm saying is... we might've made a pretty stupid choice here.
Rackam: What if we're just marching straight to our deaths?
Rosetta: I have a soft spot for recklessness... It's a better choice than cowardice, anyway.
Rackam: Sorry for wasting everyone's time with my silly questions.
Rackam: We're gonna settle this, (Captain)! Starting with these monsters right here!
Act 1: Girl in Blue - Chapter 16: The Sacred Tree - Episode 3
The crew finds the Black Knight and Orchis by the shore of a lake deep within the forest. The Black Knight sends more monsters to attack the crew, hoping to block their path.
(Captain) and the crew find the Black Knight near a seemingly bottomless lake.
Vyrn: All right! We managed to catch up!
Black Knight: You are all quite persistent... but sadly lacking in intelligence.
Rackam: That's fine by me! Overthinking things doesn't fit my personality anyway!
Lyria: Orchis!
Orchis: ...
Black Knight: Threats won't work, I see... You seem to have found some bravery within yourselves since the last time we met.
Katalina: Well it hasn't exactly been a cakewalk. Sometimes a little courage comes in handy.
Black Knight: If you won't back down under threats of harm, then so be it. Sometimes the real thing can be quite an effective teacher.
Black Knight: Now awaken it, little doll. I know it lies here.
Orchis: Huh? B-but...
Black Knight: Stop dallying and awaken it. It is its duty to fight.
Black Knight: It is but a weapon. And weapons have no purpose in a world of peace.
Rosetta: W-wait, Black Knight! You can't possibly mean...
Black Knight: A fine guess, Rosetta! But seeing as this will take some time... I believe there are monsters who wish to play with you right now.
Monster: Groooar!
Io: Hold it right there! You're just trying to run again! Talk about a sore loser!
Vyrn: We didn't come this far just to let her give us the slip again! Let's move, (Captain)!
Act 1: Girl in Blue - Chapter 16: The Sacred Tree - Episode 3: Scene 2
The Black Knight uses monsters to fight (Captain) and the crew without dirtying her own hands. Lyria is worried about the command Orchis was given earlier.
Io: Give up already! You're totally surrounded!
Black Knight: Know your place, little one. Such words are not for the weak to say to the strong.
Lyria: Black Knight... What exactly are you trying to make Orchis do?
Black Knight: Oh, you'll know soon enough. And if you've grown tired of waiting, I know just the thing to entertain you.
Monster: Groooar!
Katalina: Another monster? No slacking, (Captain)!
Act 1: Girl in Blue - Chapter 16: The Sacred Tree - Episode 4
By the order of the Black Knight, Orchis awakens the primal beast Yggdrasil from the forest lake.
Lyria: ...!
This sensation... It can't be!
This sensation... It can't be!
Orchis: It's ready...
Black Knight: Very well. Awaken it at once. We mustn't keep it waiting...
Orchis: Okay...
Lyria: W-wait! Don't do it, Orchis! It's sleeping so peacefully! Why wake it?
Orchis: ...
Orchis: Wake and see, Supreme Creator...
Humbly we do beg your favor...
Humbly we do beg your favor...
Lyria: Orchis!
Orchis: Primal power boldly grows...
Show yourself and crush our foes!
Show yourself and crush our foes!
Black Knight: Arise, primal beast Yggdrasil. Give them a taste of your overwhelming might!
Yggdrasil: ...
Rosetta: But... it was sleeping so soundly!
Black Knight: Rosetta, power only means something when it's put to use. You understand that as well as anyone, don't you?
Vyrn: The monsters are gathering here in response to Yggdrasil's power!
Eugen: She planned everything down to the last detail... We can't slip anything past her, can we?
Katalina: First things first! We have to clear out the area, (Captain)!
Act 1: Girl in Blue - Chapter 16: The Sacred Tree - Episode 4: Scene 2
Lyria is pained to see Orchis choose to remain with the Black Knight. Just as a muddled apology escapes the doll's lips, Yggdrasil prepares to attack (Captain) and the crew.
Yggdrasil: ...
Lyria: Orchis... Why would you do this? It was sleeping so quietly...
Orchis: ...
Lyria: There was a reason you did this... Right, Orchis?
Orchis: ...
Lyria: Why are you with the Black Knight? Why won't you come with us?
Orchis: ...
Lyria: Can you not hear us anymore, Orchis?
Orchis: ...
Lyria: Huh?
Black Knight: Are you saddened, Lyria? I'm sorry... but it must be done.
Black Knight: Orchis has wept her share of tears as well. It makes the moments when she smiles shine that much brighter...
Black Knight: Now then, the time has come. Let's see how you fare against the Great Tree...
Against power beyond time itself!
Against power beyond time itself!
Act 1: Girl in Blue - Chapter 16: The Sacred Tree - Episode 4: Scene 3
The Black Knight and Orchis escape. But an imperial envoy arrives to tell (Captain) and the crew that the empire wants to discuss making amends at the nearby island of Albion Citadel.
Lyria: You've been through a lot today, Yggdrasil... But it's okay. You can rest now.
Yggdrasil: ...
Rackam: We managed to defeat that giant thing somehow...
Katalina: But I don't see any sign of the Black Knight... or Orchis.
Rosetta: I suppose they've already taken off on their airship...
Io: Aw, c'mon! You've gotta be kidding me!
Vyrn: Tell me about it! And we were so close too...
Eugen: In the end we just couldn't get through to the poor girl.
Lyria: No, we did. Orchis understands how we feel.
Lyria: That's why she... said she was sorry.
Katalina: She's... sorry...
Rackam: What in the skies would she need to apologize for?
Rackam: Whoa! And what's that up there? An imperial battleship?
The crew stares in shock at the imperial battleship that has suddenly appeared.
Instead of opening fire, however, the airship sends an envoy with a rather strange proposal.
Katalina: Hold on... You want to settle this peacefully?
Imperial Soldier: Yes. We wish to find a middle ground for going forward.
Eugen: Wait just one second. What are you trying to pull here?
Io: I think we need a little more time to think about this...
Imperial Soldier: Major General Furias awaits you at the nearby island of Albion Citadel.
Imperial Soldier: We will explain everything in more detail there.
Katalina: Did you say... Albion?
Lyria: Are you okay, Katalina? Your face looks white as a sheet.
Katalina: I'm fine... I knew this day would come.
Having relayed the simple message, the envoy boards the battleship.
With no other choice left to them. (Captain) and the crew depart for Albion Citadel hoping to uncover the intent behind the empire's offer.
