Dialogue
Thank you, Otis... I pray your soul is at peace.
To slaughter his adopted people too... Is there no end to his villainy?
I did not expect that such carnage would unfold here...
I've been thinking... By wearing regulators, the people of Alexandria had been spared the fear of death.
That's because the device not only resurrects you—it also erases your memories of the departed. The very notion of dying would have become vague, if not forgotten.
To be killed over and over... I can't imagine how traumatized the survivors must be. Even if they're not physically hurt, they would still need care.
At a time like this, the citizens need their queen to console them. But where has she gone?
I don't know. There are other districts, so perhaps she's checking on them.
In any case, it's too much for her to handle alone...
Countless people will be distraught, and we ought to provide them with what comfort we can.
So while Cahciua and her crew tend to those with physical injuries, let's seek out those whose wounds are emotional.
Understood. If you and Forename want to concentrate on True Vue, the rest of us will see to the other areas.
Sounds like a plan. Alright, everyone—we'll meet up in the Backroom after.
It...it's over? I'm still alive...?
Ahhh, thank goodness... <sniff> <sob>
It makes no sense... What right did the king have to destroy our lives like this?
Give us back our peace... Leave us out of your damned war... <sob>
I want no part in it. I just want peace again...
<shudder> Never have I been so scared in my life... I'd died in an accident before, but it was nothing compared to this...
To be killed again, and again, and again... It was a living nightmare. And King Zoraal Ja was behind it, you say?
Since he suddenly appeared, he's done nothing good for us. He thinks only of war—ordered more soldiers be produced. And now he unleashes them on us...
He's no king of mine! He's a murderer, and someone needs to make him pay!
Zoraal Ja must answer for his crimes! The false king must be ripped from his throne!
Th-Thank you... I'm all right, I think...
Say, you were fighting with Queen Sphene, weren't you? Are the rumors true, then?
That Her Majesty isn't a living person. That her actual body is elsewhere—in the cloud or some such—and she uses a special power to appear before us.
I'd always wondered why the Alexandrians never questioned her true nature, but now I think I understand why.
She personally fought to protect us. That's enough for me to know she's a worthy ruler. It doesn't matter what she is.
To fight for her people is proof of her dedication to her people. Whatever she may be, she is our queen.
We've helped those we could in Solution Nine. We're now looking to send people to the other levels.
...
It seems things are somewhat under control. While Alisaie and the others are still out there...
I couldn't help but worry about Gulool Ja.
He hasn't uttered a word. And small wonder given his ordeal...
I'm going to talk to him. About everything.
Bright as he is, there's no use hiding it. He'd eventually find out, and it'd hurt him more.
Very well. Above all, he needs to know that he isn't alone.
To make your own child suffer so... I cannot comprehend the heartlessness.
I'll leave nothing out. Neither what's happened, nor what's still to come...
They had been keeping a lot inside, both Gulool Ja and Wuk Lamat...
I'm sorry I didn't listen and followed you.
But...I wanted to stop my father. And to maybe understand why he did what he did.
You should get some rest, Gulool Ja. You've been through a lot.
I do feel a bit sleepy...
There's a room in the back you can use. Could you take Gulool Ja there?
I will, thank you.
The things I would say to Zoraal Ja as a mother... But I'd better not get started.
Instead, let me thank you. We couldn't have gotten through this without you and yours.
Until the others return, you ought to take what rest you can as well. It isn't over yet, after all.
You could head...<buzzz>...prepare for...<buzzz> Otherwise feel free...<buzzz>...the Backroom.
A fuzzy image, you say? Is it still happening?
Well, it's an old worn thing. There's bound to be a few hitches.
It's nothing to worry about, though. We'll have a meeting to discuss our next move in a little while, so until then!
Cutscene 1
Start of voiced cutscene.Are you all right, Gulool Ja?
Lots of people are dead because of my father, aren't they?
That's...
And Otis... He's gone too, isn't he?
I'm sorry.
My father is a bad man. That's why you're going to kill him, aren't you?
Oh, sweetheart... Look...
Forget it.
I don't care anymore.
Listen to me, Gulool Ja.
You're right. We're going to confront your father.
He invaded Tuliyollal and hurt my people. As Vow of Resolve, it's my duty to bring him to justice.
Don't you think of him as family anymore?
After the attack, I was filled with rage. I told myself over and over that he's no brother of mine.
But it isn't so simple. No matter what I feel or say, all those years I spent striving to live up to his example... They won't just disappear.
What's more, it's because we're family that we have to correct each other when someone goes astray.
That's why I must confront my brother. Like your grandfather did, even though it cost him his life.
But...Otis is gone now.
If my father was gone too...
Then I'd have no one...
What are you saying, Gulool Ja? Take a look around.
Ah...
You have us, Gulool Ja—all of us. We'll be with you, through thick and thin.
You're not alone. You'll never be alone again.
