- Rudy
- The snowstorm in Dezolis is not abating!
- Forn
- I believe there is another cause for the abnormal climate
in Dezolis.
- Woman
- Now that the storm has subsided, I can wear my favorite hat
without any worry!
- Man E
- The winds have finally died down.
The weather is a little better now.
- Man F
- Thank goodness the storm is over.
Now we can relax.
House 2
- Young man
- The storm has subsided, but before the storm
we had earthquakes.
- Young woman
- The snow storm has subsided.
I wonder if we'll be able to communicate with the other
Parmanian towns?
Outside
- Dezolisian man A
- This is the town of Zosa. The egg of the Dezolis Penguin
is our special product!
- Dezolisian man B
- The Dezolis Penguin is really cute!
We made improvements to the Dezo Owl breed
so that they can be bred in nature.
- Dezolisian man C
- Ah, the Garuberk Tower. Come to think of it,
I've seen a creepy tower east of here.
- Dezolisian man D
- You shouldn't say such unscientific things!
How can a tower cause storms and make people sick.
- Dezolisian man E
- We would never eat the Dezolis Penguin!
We do use their eggs for food though.
- Dezolisian man F
- Being human,don't you sometimes, find yourself lost in thought?
So don't bother me!
- Dezolisian woman A
- Wouldn't you like to walk along with the Dezolis Penguin?
There's a person putting up a signboard to the west of town.
Why don't you ask him?
- Dezolisian woman B
- Hey, know what?
Some Parmanian town has been completely destroyed!
I wonder what happened?
- Dezolis Penguin
- Chirp!
- Fal
- Oh! It's so cute!
- Rudy
- Rein, you think it's cute?
- Rein
- Not really.
- Dezolisian egg collector
- My job is to collect eggs.
I walk behind them all day long so that they can lay their eggs
any time.
- Dezolisian tour man
- Look! That Dezolis Penguin is part of your group for today!
The Dezolis Penguin will walk around town with you!
This dream-like experience is yours for only 500 meseta!
Of course you'll try it, won't you?
(if you answer yes)
- Dezolisian tour man
- Well then, enjoy!
Be careful because it will be over if
you leave town or go inside a house!
(if you answer no)
- Dezolisian tour man
- I can't believe you would skip such an enjoyable thing!
You guys certainly aren't broad-minded.
(while you are touring)
- Dezolisian tour man
- Be careful because it will be over if
you leave town or go inside a house!
(inspect sign next to the Dezolisian tour man)
- Rudy
- It has 'The Dezolian Penguin Companion' written on it.
House 1
- Dezolisian man
- Meese? Reshel? ...Oh, those Parmanian towns.
If you just go east a little you'll probably see them.
House 2
- Dezolisian man
- Because of this snow storm, we can't even get to
Gumbious Temple, where we find peace of mind, and pray.
- Dezolisian woman
- In other towns, everybody makes a living by hunting, but...
Thanks to the Dezolis Penguin,
we lead a breeder's life in this town.
(leave Tool shop with Pengu-feed)
- Rudy
- Oh! Penguin-feed is stalen!!
House 3
- Dezolisian man
- Breaking news!
The Garuberk Tower is located beyond the forest of
man-eating trees.
Apparently it's not a place that you can get to!
(defeat Gy-Laguiah)
- Forn
- This seems to be the control system
for the Dezolisian climate.
- Rudy
- The monsters have been making a nest!
- Forn
- As we suspected, this must be the cause of
the abnormal weather.
- Fal
- Let's investigate!
- Raja
- Uh, it's no use! I've been telling you,
the cause of the snow storm lies in the Garuberk Tower!!
(approach D-Elm-Lars)
- D-Elm-Lars
- Ha, ha, ha! You dummies! How foolhardy to come here!
Dummies! This was just a trap!
Hmmph. It seems like a waste to dirty oyr hands
with stupid people like you, but...
Being just a vessel that takes orders
I'll just have to do it!
- Rudy
- Wait! You said orders?
But we've beaten Zio...and Dark Force!
Whose orders are you acting on?
- D-Elm-Lars
- You defeated him? The great Dark Force?
Ha, ha, ha, ha! Ridiculous!
(defeat D-Elm-Lars)
- Rudy
- Blast! This bothers me!
It was talking like that creep.. Dark Force is still alive!
- Rein
- Yeah...
- Forn
- Rudy,there's nothing wrong with the climate control system.
- Fal
- So, it really was a snare.
- Raja
- See. Just like I said. We have to go to
the Garuberk Tower!
(inspect control center)
- Forn
- The climate control system is functioning normally.
- Rudy
- Are you saying something else is causing the abnormalities in
Dezolis?
- Musk Cat Guards
- This is the mysterious valley, meow.
- Rudy
- Wow! It's a cat! And the cat talked!
- Must Cat Guards
- We are musk cats. We can talk, meow.
We get some kind of a feeling from you, meow.
Go in and meet the old man, meow.
- Musk Cat Guards
- You guys are special, meow.
- Musk Cat A
- Somehow, we get a feeling of fond remembrance from you, meow.
- Musk Cat B
- Normally, neither Parmanians nor Dezolisians
can enter this valley, meow.
- Musk Cat C
- It's very rare that a human would enter this place, meow.
- Musk Cat D
- In all of Dezolis, only this valley is warm, meow.
- Musk Cat E
- The old man has a treasure, meow.
- Musk Cat F
- We haven't even seen the old man's treasure, meow.
- Musk Cat G
- The beauty of the old man's shuttlecock is unparalleled
in this world, meow.
- Musk Cat H
- Meow.
I can get the top off of this bottle, meow.
- Musk Cat I
- The weather in Dezolis is rather strange these days, meow.
- Musk Cat J
- All that is left of the musk cats are here, meow.
- Musk Cat K
- I'm imitating the old man, meow.
- Old man
- Good of you to come, visitors.
I'm the chief of this valley.
Hmm, you have good eyes. No wonder you were let through.
It's really strange... I have a feeling that
we've meet before!
I feel all right about putting this in your care.
This is a treasure that has been passed
on generation after generation. Go take it with you.
It's the 'Silver Tusk!'
- Old man
- Here's the Silver Tusk. Please make good use of it.
- Musk Cat E
- Please put the old man's treasure to good use, meow.
- Musk Cat F
- Please put the old man's treasure to good use, meow.
(inspect house)
- Rudy
- This is terrible!
- Esper guards
- Who dares enter? Suspicious people will not be
allowed to enter!
Outside
- Dezolisian man A
- Welcome to the town of Jut.
Actually this is no time for niceties. Look at this weather.
- Dezolisian man B
- Everyone seems down-hearted.
What wimps to stay indoors just because of a little bit
of wind like this.
- Fal
- But this region has especially harsh snow storms.
I don't blame them.
- Dezolisian man C
- Oops!
It's so thrilling when the winds are just right.
You don't know whether you'll be blown away or not!
- Dezolisian man D
- This hat?
Actually, there's a string inside it, so it won't get
blown away.
- Dezolisian man E
- Ooof.
I can't move forward at all.
House 1
- Dezolisian man
- In the back room of the Gumbious Temple, there's a
great Bishop that has lived for over a thousand years...
I haven't met him myself, but that's what they say.
- Rein
- Uh huh...I have heard that being rumored...
House 2
- Dezolisian man
- Talking about the temple, some time ago there was a man who
kept making stupid jokes all the time.
I haven't seen him around recently, but I really liked
him!
Oh? Hey! You, I'm talking to you!
What's going on. Did you move?
- Raja
- Yes. Some of my jokes were a hit so I moved on! Ha, ha!
- Rudy
- Get out of here.
- Fal
- Rudy...
- Dezolisian woman
- If you're talking about the Gumbious Temple, it's further
north.
The building in the middle of town, now that's different.
Tool shop
- Shopkeeper
- See that old building to the southwest?
Apparently it's some ruin from ages past.
I should go there some time.
Maybe I'll stumble onto some lucky find!
- Dezolisian woman
- the building to the southwest? Don't be silly.
There's a wall of ice around it and you wouldn't be able to get
through!
House 3
- Dezolisian woman
- With the Gumbious Temple being so close by,
I feel sorry for the temple in the middle of town.
House 4
- Dezolisian woman
- Supposedly there is this holy flame at the Gumbious Temple
that protects us.
It's said that it has been burning without fail for a
thousand years.
- Dezolisian man
- A holy flame that's been burning for a thousand years?
...There isn't anything like that.
You shouldn't believe rumors.
House 4
- Dezolisian woman
- It's our pride that our house is the only two-story house in
the entire town!
On the other hand, with this storm, it's kind of worrisome.
I wonder if it will fall?
- Dezolisian man on second floor
- It's shaking, it's shaking. I'm getting seasick.
Equipment shop
- Dezolisian man
- We do hunt, but Dezolisians are essentially laid back.
Therefore weapon stores don't do a lot of business.
- Dezolisian woman
- The weapons in Laconia have been purchased from Reshel.
So what we have here is all that we have in stock.
It's first come first serve while supplies last!
House 5
- Dezolisian man
- With weather like this, even we are too afraid to go out.
Although there does seem to be some of us who are rather
frivolous!
House 6
- Dezolisian man
- You think you can just open the door and walk in?
But I'll accept what you say and let you in.
But if you've opened the door can you close it?
It's cold outside!
- Dezolisian woman
- Now calm down! You're so short-tempered!
House 7
- Dezolisian man
Temple
- Dezolisian man A
- For us Dezolisians, we cannot fail to do our daily prayers.
- Dezolisian man B
- The head of the temple is wonderful, but the village
shrine is also important.
- Dezolisian priest
- Sir, since the Gumbious Temple is close by to the north...
No one comes to this temple. But, that's all right.
There's one who has the faith.
First floor
- Dezolisian priest A
- Welcome to the Gumbious Temple. We even welcome Parmanians.
- Dezolisian priest B
- Here at Gumbious Temple, we not only guarded the
'Eclipse Torch,' the object of the Dezolisian belief,
but also we are the core of the governmental system.
- Dezolisian priest C
- 'One day, the flame of the Eclipse Torch will reduce
to ashes all that is unclean.'
That is the legend of the Eclipse Torch.
- Dezolisian man A
- The 'Eclipse Torch' is a holy flame.
The legend stats that it emits a burning light that reduces any
'object unworthy of this world to ashes.'
- Dezolisian man B
- This is sacred Dezolisian area.
Usually many people come to visit, but recently there's
been a snowstorm and visitors are few and far between.
- Dezolisian man C
- How rare to see a Parmanian. Are you here sight-seeing?
- Dezolisian man D
- They say there used to be a tower called 'Corona'
that stood here in the past.
- Dezolisian woman A
- I once got terribly frostbiten.
But the light of the Eclipse Torch,
cured me in moments!
That is truly a holy flame.
- Dezolisian woman B
- This holy flame of ours is truly beautiful!
Second floor
- Dezolisian man A
- I'm so grateful.
It's so wonderful to be able to worship the flame of
the Eclipse Torch again!
- Dezolisian man B
- Not even the most precious jewel could emit such a divine light.
- Dezolisian man C
- The more I look at it the more refreshing the light is.
I feel as if my heart is being cleansed!
- Dezolisian priest
- I'm a trained monk.
Every time I step into this place I feel stronger.
- Dezolisian head priest
- Welcome, welcome.
We welcome any visitor to the temple.
Basement
- Dezolisian priests
- You may not go beyond this point.
Please retreat.
- Fal
- What on earth is this place?
- Forn
- This is the weapon plant Mother Brain constructed a thousand
years ago.
Presently, it is an unnecessary facility,
so all it's functions have been shut down, but...
It looks like it has been producing automatic weapons
according to orders from Kuran for about half a year.
- Rudy
- So, we'll be in trouble unless we shut this place down?
- Forn
- No. When Zelan recovered, the production of weapons ceased.
There should be no problem leaving this place as it is.
(open chest with Burstroc)
- Rudy
- There are things here that I have no clue as to what they
are.
- Forn
- This is the 'Burst Roc' unit.
It is a wide range semi-automatic weapon
that fires heat energy bursts.
It is a type which is compatible with my body.
I shall install it immediately.
Device installation complete. 'Burst Roc' is now ready for
use.
Outside
- Man A
- This is the town of Meese.
There's a strange illness going around and
we're in a terrible state.
- Man B
- There was a strange illness going around...
You'd get a really high fever and usually die within a month.
On top of that...
the dead bodies would revive as zombies It was so scary!
- Man C
- Some people have escaped from Reshel, but it's not like
it's safe here either!
- Man D
- Z...z...zombies are supposed to fear fire, right?
So they won't come and attack us if we make a fire right
in the middle of town like this, right?
- Man E
- There's someone called 'Esper' who's come here?
Sounds kind of suspicious!
- Man F
- Did you see the cemetery?
I feel sorry for them, but we had to burn and bury
the bodies of all the people who became zombies.
- Woman A
- There was a town called Reshel west of here, but...
Apparently it's been totally destroyed by an illness!
I hear it's a zombie town now.
We've got to take this matter seriously here!
- Woman B
- This is the patient admission area.
It used to be the inn, but the innkeeper has made it
a public clinic out of the goodness of his heart.
- Woman C
- The owner of this equipment store has been stricken by
the illness and has closed shop.
He used to sell a strange-smelling perfume
called something or other.
- Woman D
- Over half the people of this town have been stricken
with the illness.
(inspect perfume shop door)
- Rudy
- There's a notice posted on the door.
Hmmm... 'Due to circumstances, we will be closed'
Inn
- Bald man
- I'm a refugee from Reshel.
That person became... Oh, it's was scary!
- Man
- With the inn being the clinic right now,
our place is the temporary inn.
Right now, we've got a lot of people
who have escaped from Reshel.
- Young man
- I'm fed up with scary places. I've got to run even farther.
- Young woman
- I just can't abandon Reshel, the town I was born in
and grew up in!
I'm sure they'll find some medicine for the illness
and the town will be back to normal!
House 1
- Boy
- Hey, why can't I go outside?
- Young woman
- Never mind me, I just won't let this child become ill!
Clinic
First floor
- Young man A
- This place is actually a large inn renowned throughout Dezolis.
But because there are so many ill, the innkeeper is letting us
use it.
Such a wonderfully warm-hearted person!
I'd say it's beyond the call of duty!
- Young man B
- No medicine seems to cure this strange illness.
At this point, the only thing we can do is to
inject life energy into them to prolong their lives a little...
That's why all those people from 'Esper'have come from afar.
- Esper A
- We're the 'Espers' that you all have been talking about.
We have come from the 'Esper Mansion'
southeast of here.
- Esper B
- There are many who have power like ours
in the Esper Mansion.
- Esper C
- We're in pain, but the patients are in even more pain.
We've got to work harder.
- Esper D
- Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaam!
This patient needs life energy! Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaam!!
- Esper E
- To give others life energy means the taking of life energy
from ourselves, but...
- Esper F
- We could only help in this small way...
- Patients
- Oooooo I'm in pain...
- Innkeeper
- I'm the innkeeper. To tell the truth I didn't want
our place to be used, but...
With all those empty rooms, the towns people would have
look at me reproachfully!!
How upsetting... Darn!
- Woman
- Yes, maybe we should just make it a hospital.
Second floor
- Esper A and B
- We're the other shift.
- Head esper
- This strange illness broke out right after the Garuberk
Tower appeared.
- Raja
- See, just as I told you. That tower must be the cause.
- Rudy
- Raja... Quit joking around!
- Fal
- Rudy! This is no joke! He's got a tremendous fever!
- Rein
- Quickly! We must carry him to a bed!
- Fal
- Even Raja has fallen sick...
He'll die if we leave him like this!
- Rudy
- Ha, ha, ha...I don't believe it.
- Fal
- This isn't any laughing matter, Rudy!
- Rudy
- I'm sorry...
- Rein
- Fal, you're aware of it too, aren't you?
- Fal
- Rein...
- Rein
- I've sensed in ever since we came to Dezolis, but
it feels really strong in this vicinity!
- Fal
- Yes!
- Rudy
- What is it? What are you two talking about?
- Rein
- Rudy, listen carefully... This feeling is the
'Black Energy Wave!'
- Rudy
- The Black...
- Rein
- It's probably...coming from The Garuberk Tower.
And it's pretty close!
- Rudy
- Darn!
- Head esper 2
- Help! Help!
Sela...Sela has headed for The Garuberk Tower by herself!
- Rudy
- Sela?
- Head esper 2
- She's a girl of exceptional courage from our group!
But...this is too reckless! There is a forest of man-eating
trees surrounding the tower!!
- Fal
- Rudy!
- Rudy
- Right. We can't let her go alone! Where is this forest?
- Head esper
- It northeast of town!
- Rudy
- OK, let's go!
- Raja
- Yes, yes... It was bad luck...
- Rudy
- You just won't give up, will you!
- Head esper 1 and 2
- Sela is such a daredevil...
- Esper A and B
- Finally. I'm on break.
First floor
- Espers, except Esper B
- Please help Sela!
- Esper B
- Everyone, I entrust Sela to you!
- Fal
- Look! Someone is being attacked!
- Rudy
- Is that Sela?
(run from man-eating trees)
- Rudy
- Heck! They keep growing and growing from behind us!
There's no end to this! We've got to retreat!
- Sela
- Thank you for rescuing me.
My name is Sela Tierney. Who are you all?
- Fal
- We've been sent by your friends.
At any rate, I'm glad you're safe!
- Sela
- I see...So that's why you came all the way here.
- Rudy
- It was pretty reckless of you to come here alone!
- Sela
- I felt I had to do something to make it all right!
It just made my blood boil to see all those people in such
pain...
But those man-eating trees, they were far tougher than
what I heard...
- Rudy
- Yeah...I wonder if there's a better way to tackle those
man-eating trees?
- Sela
- I may know a way...
Our leader should be able to tell us!
Our... chief of the Esper Mansion...
'Lutz'...
About two thousand years ago...
He, along with a heroine called Alis, saved Algo and has come
to be known as a legendary
wizard!
- Rudy
- Wait a minute!
Are you saying a person from two thousand years ago is still
alive?
- Sela
- It's said he is still alive in the deepest depths of the
Esper Mansion!
But they won't let anyone except top ranking people enter the
mansion.
That's why I've only seen him once, and from afar at that,
during some ceremony!
But...
you can even recognize from afar!
He's intellectual...graceful... classy...
just a wonderful person!
I've no doubt that he would know of a good way to tackle this
problem!
- Rudy
- Hmm...
He's been alive for two thousand years...
- Sela
- You don't believe?
The reverent Lutz is an unparalleled magician whose
feats have given rise to many a legend!
I'm sure the master even knows the secrets to immortality!
- Rudy
- I wonder if that could be true?
- Forn
- Logically speaking, it must be something like
cryogenic hibernation.
- Sela
- Whatever the case may be, we just can't leave the people
of Meese in their misery.
We must try to get an audience with Lutz!
- Fal
- Yes! Hey, Rudy, let's go and see if we can meet
this man, Lutz!
- Sela
- I'll be your guide. Let's go!
- Rudy
- All right. Let's go the Esper Mansion!
Outside
- Dezolisian man D
- I've seen Parmanians from time to time, but this is the first
time I've seen a girl with horns!
- Fal
- How dare you!
- Sela
- Hee, hee... Calm down. They look cute.
- Dezolisian woman B
- In the temple to the south, there's a highly virtuous and
wonderful priest named Raja.
- Rudy
- Excuse me, but I just can't see him as being highly
virtuous...
- Dezolisian man G
- Oh? Ah, you're Raja's traveling companions.
Where is the great Raja?
- Rudy
- I tell you, Raja is our traveling companion!
Gyuna's inn
(ask Gyuna about Garuberk Tower)
- Gyuna
- It's said there's a tower somewhere in Dezolis where
the demons live.
As the story goes, the tower suddenly appeared overnight!
- Rudy
- And you have no idea at all where the Tower of
Garuberuku is?
- Gyuna
- I'm begining to understand!
I have a feeling it's north of Meese.
- Rudy
- I see.
(ask Gyuna about Raja)
- Gyuna
- Raja has fallen? But he's the kind of guy who will return
even if you kill him....This is kind of worrisome...
House 3
- Dezolisian woman
- Oh, great Raja, that such a wonderful high priest
would travel to such a remote region...
It seems like such a waste.
Outside
- Man E
- There's someone called 'Esper' who's come here?
Sounds kind of suspicious!
- Sela
- How dare you say that!
- Woman C
- The owner of this equipment store has been stricken by
the illness and has closed shop.
He used to sell a strange-smelling perfume
called something or other.
- Sela
- Ooo, perfume! That's nice.
Clinic
First floor
- Esper A
- Oh it's you, Sela! You're safe!
- Esper B
- Now, Sela, don't do anything reckless.
- Esper C
- I'm sorry Sela is such an unruly girl, but...
- Sela
- And what is that supposed to mean? You twit!
- Esper D
- I'm sorry Sela is such an imprudent girl, but...
- Sela
- Hmmph! Oh, cut it out!
- Esper E
- I'm sorry Sela is such a tomboy, but...
- Sela
- And what's wrong with that!
- Esper F
- I'm sorry Sela is so saucy, but...
- Sela
- Well, excuse me!
Second floor
- Head esper
- Everyone, I entrust Sela to you.
House 4
- Dezolisian woman
- Supposedly there is this holy flame at the Gumbious Temple
that protects us.
It's said that it has been burning without fail for a
thousand years.
- Sela
- Wow! How romantic!
- Rudy
- I don't know about that. It seems pretty eerie to me.
