Sacred Stone Memories Chapter 3/Quest 5 - Storyline

Split and Settlement

Kanon	Are you sure you're all right with this, Vice-Captain Monzein?
Monzein	...With what?
Kanon	Seida of course!
Monzein	She no longer belongs to the 2nd Regiment. Forget about here. No more talk. We advance.
Almira	Did you really have to speak to her like that?! Have you forgotten how you two worked together on the bridge?!
Monzein	Silence.
Kanon	I understand your perspective, Vice-Captain. If the lives of everyone in this world is in danger, then it's our duty to remove that threat. But you didn't have to speak to her like that! You told Seida to stand by and let the people of Alize...her people, get slaughtered!
Monzein	I said silence!!!
Kanon	!!!
Monzein	Under these circumstances, their sacrifice was unavoidable. However you say it, it won't change the truth.
Almira	Was it really unavoidable?
Monzein	What?
Almira	My teacher Seida said that the Sacred Stone wasn't in Gluttony. What if that's really true?
Monzein	Nonsense! That theory has no basis!
Almira	What're you saying is just speculation as well! You have no proof that it wasn't a trap set by the enemy, yet you've already decided that it is. What're you gonna do if the Sacred Stone isn't in Gluttony and knights are at the temple?!
Monzein	Silence! Don't meddle in things you know nothing about! It doesn't matter what the truth is or not. I am the vice-captain. I am your commander! You must need to silently follow my orders.
Kanon	Fine. I get it now. I knew you were stubborn, but I didn't think you were such a blockhead, Vice-Captain Idiot.
Monzein	V-Vice-Captain Idiot?!
Kanon	I'll go help Seida, even if I have to do it alone!
Monzein	What?!
Almira	That's the spirit! You're not alone. I'm coming with you!
Monzein	He-hey! Wait...
Monster	...
Monzein	Tsk! At a time like this...!
Later...

Seida	The wind ruins... I haven't been here since that day. Not one thing about it has changed. Where is everyone?
???	And who might you be looking for?
Seida	Who's there?!
Waginau	I am Waginau—one who knows much about all of you.
Seida	All of us? I don't understand what you're talking about, but if there's something you want to ask then hurry up. You're being highly inefficient right now.
Waginau	Heheh. That's quite the tone to take with someone you've just met. I'm not very impressed by your attitude, Seida.
Seida	Who are you...? How do you know my name?
Waginau	Hahaha! Fate is on our side, after all! Who would've thought you would make your way to me! It's saved me the trouble of going out to find you! Well then, how about you tell me...where the Sacred Stone is?
Seida	What...?!
Waginau	Gluttony and your people of Alize thought this one out well. On the surface, the king and chief prepared to be at each other's throats, but, in fact, they were connected.
Seida	...?! How did you know that?
Waginau	Heheh. I was told so...by the very people who planned it!
Seida	N-no, it can't be...! I can't feel anyone's presence anymore... I felt them just a moment ago.
Waginau	At first, I attempted to prise the information from them gently, but their attitude was much like yours, and so I had to punish them a little.
Seida	No...
Waginau	Heheheh.
Seida	Noooooo!!!
Waginau	They were quite noble. They didn't give up the location of the Sacred Stone, even until the very end. That's why I'm going to ask you now. Where is the Sacred Stone? If you won't answer, then you'll also...
Kanon	Miracle Kanon Slaaaash!!!
Seida	Kanon...!
Kanon	Are you okay, Seida?
Waginau	Are these your friends? I have no business with them. My apologies, but I'm going to have to ki—
Monzein	Lightning Axe!!!
Waginau	...?!
Seida	Vice-Captain...?!
Monzein	You scum...did you make one of my knights cry?
Almira	If you so much as laid a finger on my teacher...
Kanon	I'm not gonna forgive you!
Waginau	Oh dear. I see that it's four against one. Not the best odds.
Kanon	Oh, he ran away!
Monzein	Let's chase after him!
