Journal

  • Wuk Lamat is struggling to process what she has witnessed.
  • The sun has set on the former Dawnservant Gulool Ja Ja. Unfortunately, there is no time to remain idle─the people of Tuliyollal have need of their new leaders.
    • ※In the event that you leave the area and wish to return, speak with the guard keep watch at the entrance to the Sunperch.
  • Wuk Lamat wishes to render aid to the people of Tuliyollal, and the Scions readily offer their assistance. She assigns them all to various places about the city in the hopes of attending to as many wounded as possible. As for you, she asks that you accompany her to the Resplendent Quarter.
  • You have aided what people you can in the Resplendent Quarter, but there is yet more work to be done. Perhaps Wuk Lamat has an idea of where else your help may be needed.
  • Not wishing to waste any time, Wuk Lamat asks that you make for Talonmarch. Your task is to assess what damage has been done to the area, after which you can reconvene with Alisaie at Bayside Bevy.
  • You have a look about Talonmarch, and while there are parts that remain unscathed, the same cannot be said for what has become of Bayside Bevy. With your assessment complete, you seek out Alisaie.
  • Alisaie has done what she can for the people of Bayside Bevy, and based on what little damage has been done to the buildings, she is convinced Zoraal Ja's attack was a display of force and not intended to inflict significant harm. Putting his motives aside, she is more concerned for Wuk Lamat, and asks that you return to check on her. Word has it she was last seen near the Gornitruq Gleamsands.
  • You find Wuk Lamat alone, overcome with shock. You offer her what words of comfort you can, and though her heart yet aches, she finds the determination to press on.
  • Wuk Lamat has newfound resolve to strike down Zoraal Ja and secure the peace and safety of Tural. She prepares to return to the place and speak with Koana to plan their next move, bidding you and the Scions join them.
  • Alisaie is relieved to hear Wuk Lamat is doing better. There can be no doubt the Scions will do all in their power to assist the new Dawnservants, but she cannot shake the uneasy feeling brought on by this unprecedented threat.

Dialogue

Optional dialogue
Twelve have mercy...
We did everything we could. Everything... But it simply wasn't enough...
I can scarcely believe my eyes...
How could this happen?
Father, no! This cannot be!

Voiced Cutscene

How... How could this happen?
Enough... I am beyond saving...
Father, please! You can't give up!
Are you there...old friend...?
I'm right here. I'm right here.
Look after...my children...
I'm an old fossil like you. I've only got so many years left.
But if that's what you want, it would be an honor.
You and I...must go on another journey together someday...
Aye, ye can count on it.
Wuk Lamat... Koana...
Yes, Papa.
The graves of the Yok Huy... You saw them, yes? I always found their teachings comforting...
Please, Father, you must save your strength.
Our flesh may wither and die. But so long as we are remembered, we are never truly gone.
Through you, my hopes survive... Through you, I live on...
So do not mourn me. Walk tall...and see our nation to a brighter future.
Papa! Papa!
Papa!!!
Optional dialogue
What can we do now...?
Gulool Ja Ja was so proud to be succeeded by his children. To think that he will never get to see them carry on his legacy...
At a time like this, we must take the initiative. There will be countless people in need of help.
I don't understand...
If only I'd been more careful...
We must see to the people... Assess casualties, as well as any damage done to the city. Yes...

Cutscene 2

R-Right. So, uh... I...
Vow Wuk Lamat. Vow Koana. I bring word from the city. The enemy has withdrawn, and the Landsguard have begun rendering aid to the people.
Casualties within our ranks have hindered progress, but we continue to do all that we can.
I thank you for the report. Please inform the guard they are to prioritize such efforts until further notice.
The people... I need to help them.
We will assist you in whatever way we can, of course.
Thank you, thank you. There are sure to be wounded everywhere─more than I could count.
We'll split up and help all of them. You can count on us!
Alphinaud and Alisaie, could you take Bayside Bevy? And Krile and Erenville, the palace perimeter.
As for Forename, please come to the Resplendent Quarter with me. We'll all meet back here afterwards.
Optional dialogue
How could Zoraal Ja commit so heinous an act!?
If you're still in pain, there's no need to push yourself.
You should be all right now.
I'm afraid we were too late to save him...
Someone tell those enemy soldiers to throw down their weapons and grab a taco instead. There's no conflict that can't be resolved over a good meal!
I'm not entirely sure I understand what just happened, but seeing as I made it through unscathed, I'm going to keep doing what needs to be done.
I'm glad some of the crates survived the attack. We haven't lost everything... We can still recover.
Even in times of war, the Wing of Reflection has a role to play. Our most pressing job is ensuring the Vow of Resolve can concentrate on the fight ahead.
In response to the attack, we have stepped up patrols and bolstered security. You and your compatriots, however, will always be welcome in the palace.
So Bakool Ja Ja protected you... That's wonderful.
This isn't how I'd hoped to celebrate the crowning of our new Dawnservants. Hopefully it's resolved quickly...
Those...machines that attacked us─where did they come from? Is this city even safe anymore?
The founding of our great nation was supposed to put an end to the war and bloodshed! We don't know how to fight─we weren't trained for this!
Welcome back, sir. Will you be making use of your cabin? We have been fortunate to escape any serious damage from the invasion...
We've scarcely had time to welcome our new rulers, and now this? Can't we have a day of peace in this damned country?
Where are you hurt?
Why has it gotten so quiet out there? I'm not sure I want to find out... No, I think what I need right now is a warm, soothing bath...
Why did this happen...?
No matter what's floating up there, we'll get you to Yak T'el safely.
Looks like we'll have to replace the whole pillar. It was only a glancing blow, but the force of the explosion must have bent the damn thing...
I'm sorry I raised my voice. It's just...I don't know what to do...
I've gathered up all the unbroken crates I could find. Some are a little burnt around the edges, but hopefully their contents are all right.
Th-Thanks... I think I'm alright...
Did you see them? Those soldiers?
They looked like people, but they killed and killed with no hesitation...
If they attack us again, how can we hope to defend ourselves...?
<sniffle> Thank you, sir.
B-But my husband and son... They were...they were... <sob>
My thanks. I'll be fine now.
But we failed to protect the people...
Why did so many have to die? Where were Vow Wuk Lamat and Vow Koana!?
Ugh, they're not to blame. I understand, I do, but... <sigh> I need to clear my head...
Thank you... I thought I was done for...
I heard something disturbing. The enemy leader─they say he looked like Zoraal Ja.
But that can't be true, can it? Why would the First Promise attack his own people?
But if it was him, what happens now? Is he going to come back? What do we do if he does?
Th-Thank you, the pain is better now. But I can't stop shaking...
Where did they come from? Why did they attack us? And why are those things still in the sky?
We had peace under Gulool Ja Ja! We were safe! But now...

Cutscene 3

You've finished aiding the people here?
Thank you.
There were children among the wounded. Children.
...No, now isn't the time. There are still others who need help.
Could you go and see how things are at Talonmarch? And afterwards, go and find Alisaie at Bayside Bevy.

End Cutscene

There is no evidence of significant damage from the battle. The fighting did not spread this far, it seems.
The fresh scorch marks on the ground are doubtless from the enemy assault...
The shop appears to have weathered the chaos, though its wares have been strewn across the floor.
The port remains unscathed, but the enemy ships continue to loom overhead.
I've helped all those I could find, and seen them delivered into the Landsguard's care.
As many casualties as there are, it would've been worse if the Landsguard hadn't fought as bravely as they did.
And if Zoraal Ja actually meant to harm the people...
I mean, look around. The buildings are hardly damaged.
I suspect his aim was more to incite fear. To show that he could strike whenever he pleases.
...But we can discuss that later. How is Lamaty'i?
Even after what happened to her father, she's trying so hard to fulfill her duty to the people...
Still, everyone has their limits. She needs rest, and soon.
Someone mentioned seeing her head towards the shore. Perhaps she's gone to the Gornitruq Gleamsands.

Voiced Cutscene 4

Steady, now!
I've brought you medicine. Drink!
There you are, Lamaty'i! I was beginning to─
Come on. Come on, take it. Please!
Lamaty'i...
Lamaty'i!
How...? How could I...?
Look at me, Lamaty'i.
You need rest, you and him both. I will tend to this soul.
But my people... I have to help them...
The Landsguard have matters well in hand. Trust in them.
If there's another attack, your people will need you to protect them. They'll need you to be sharp.
So please, rest. Consider it your duty.
I stood before them all... Said that we'd build a nation where everyone knows happiness...
So much for that promise!
What good is a Vow of Resolve who cannot save her people!?
What will you say?
We'll handle this. Together.
You'll stick with me?
You won't save your people by brooding.
You're right. This isn't the time for sulking.
Thank you. My head's a little clearer now. I need to concentrate on what I can do rather than what I can't.
We've dealt with unfriendly factions before. From Yok Huy still longing for conquest to adherents of blessed siblings─people who were unwilling to listen.
Even so, I believed that by learning about one another and engaging in good faith, we could peacefully settle our differences. And we did.
But my brother is different. There'll be no reasoning with him. He killed our people─our father. He'll stop at nothing to achieve his goal.
What's more, he has power. The power to destroy the peace we've worked so hard to preserve.
If I'm to protect that peace, then I must fight...
I must confront Zoraal Ja─and kill him!

End Cutscene

I'm fine. Just needed a moment to settle my nerves.
Thank you for being there for me, and for urging me on despite all my sulking.
Sitting around complaining isn't very leader-like, is it?
So much has happened so quickly. I struggle to make sense of it all.
The strange soldiers, those floating ships, the new power Zoraal Ja commands...
Given everything he's done, and still intends to do, I know I can't afford to run headlong into battle. Not this time.
I cannot let this terrible pain in my heart lead me astray. But I will make it my strength─the strength to do what I must.
Right, I'm heading back to the palace. I need to talk strategy with Koana.
Could you and the others join us in a while? However we decide to proceed, I want you all to be aware of it.
Oh, and...could you tell Alisaie I'll be all right? She's probably at Bayside Bevy.
Oh, you're back. By that, I take it to mean Lamaty'i is feeling better.
She needs to be strong for the people of Tural, I understand that. But she doesn't have to do it alone.
So if she intends to fight, then we fight. Together.
That said...
I wish I knew exactly what we were up against.
