Game Script

Garden of Antiquity (pt.1) - Al'Taieu
Nag'molada: Incredible... Nag'molada: Al'Taieu... You were meant to be impossible to find... Nag'molada: Ahahaha! Who would have thought the plan to open the gate of the gods would succeed! Nag'molada: Al'Taieu! Long have I yearned to behold your magnificent spires! Nag'molada: Why...? Why can't I hear the voices? Nag'molada: Why do I not hear the whispers of the Zilartian people or the Dawn Maiden? Nag'molada: Silence! Nag'molada: Your unruly thoughts are clouding my mind! Nag'molada: !? Nag'molada: So, the rest of you were drawn into this world as well. How inconvenient... Nag'molada: A visit to the Grand Palace of Hu'Xzoi should bring some interesting encounters. Perhaps the Dawn Maiden is there... Chapter 8: Emptiness Bleeds
On to Al'Taieu (pt.1) - Sealion's Den
Sueleen: That ship of yours made its way back here of its own accord. Must be that "autopilot" thing that Prishe was talking about. Sueleen: I've resupplied the airship, so you can take off at any time. Let me know when you're ready to board.
Garden of Antiquity (pt.2) - Al'Taieu
Ulmia: Player name! Ulmia: You were brought to this peculiar realm as well? Ulmia: Are you injured? You have been treated terribly... Louverance: I hear a voice calling to me... Jabbos: It seems...to be coming...from beyond...the gate... Louverance: The portal appears to be locked. If we are to believe the talk of those beings, this path leads to the palace of the Zilartian king. Louverance: One of the inhabitants here spoke of a girl matching Prishe's description heading this way. If we can gain an audience with the king, we should learn exactly what's going on here. Louverance: !? This place lies beyond the Gate of the Gods? Did the ancients truly cross that legendary border!? Ulmia: Let us not be so hasty in our assumptions. This is indeed a beautiful land... Ulmia: However, I cannot believe this is the Paradise of peace and love spoken of in legend. We have already been set upon by vicious beasts. Shikaree Z: And if what Bahamut says is true, the Keeper of the Apocalypse lurks somewhere in this rrrealm. Ulmia: If Prishe was so intent on gaining entry to the palace, then the keeper will most likely be found inside... Jabbos: Nag'molada...has also...entered the...palace... We have...no choice...but...to proceed... Jabbos: This...gate...must have...an opening...mechanism... We...should...look around... Louverance: Only... Louverance: I worry that the Keeper of the Apocalypse will be beyond our ability. Jabbos: What...do you mean...? Louverance: Player name. The four sources of light you acquired... Louverance: Were they not all taken from you by that blackheart, Nag'molada? Was the light taken from you? Yes, it is gone. <----- Chose this option! No, the light remains. Ulmia: Are you certain? I feel that the light has not abandoned us. Ulmia: If we all stand together in body and spirit, there may still be a chance... Was the light taken from you? Yes, it is gone. No, the light remains. <----- Chose this option! Ulmia: You mean to say that the light has not left us completely? Ulmia: Then if we all stand together in body and spirit, there may still be a chance... Jabbos: I have...no intention...of joining forces...with Nag'molada... Louverance: And I would prefer to keep some distance from Lord Tenzen. Do you not agree, Lord/Lady Player name? Ulmia: ... Shikaree Z: First we have to find a way to open this gate. Let's get moving.
Garden of Antiquity (pt.3) - Al'Taieu
Makki-Chebukki: You! Have you come to punish us!? Mete out some punishment? Time for payback... <----- Chose this option! Let's be civilized... Mete out some punishment? Time for payback... Let's be civilized... <----- Chose this option! Makki-Chebukki: H-h-hold on a second! Time out! Time out! Makki-Chebukki: It's not our fault! Lord Tenzen lied to us! Makki-Chebukki: And if you don't follow your samurai master's orders, you have to commit ritual suicide. It's true! I read it in a book somewhere! Makki-Chebukki: So... Makki-Chebukki: I suppose you want to get into the palace, huh? Makki-Chebukki: Well, we want to get in there, too. This voice in my head is driving me crazy! Makki-Chebukki: Let's let bygones be bygones and work together, okay? We've ditched the samurai life, anyway. Makki-Chebukki: Getting past that gate is more complicated than just releasing the lock on this southern tower. Makki-Chebukki: If you really want to know how to open the gate, you better take a look at the other towers as well.
Garden of Antiquity (pt.4) - Al'Taieu
Kukki-Chebukki: Well done! Kukki-Chebukki: Makki told me all about our deal! You wanna get in to see the king, right? Kukki-Chebukki: Just so's you know, the positions of princes and princess have already been filled! Kukki-Chebukki: Didn't you know? The Zilartian king used to have two sons and a daughter. Kukki-Chebukki: They've been out of the picture for ten thousand years now, so he must be feeling pretty lonely. Kukki-Chebukki: After all that time, he's probably a few jewels short of a crown, too, if you know what I mean. I doubt the king'll notice if we're a little shorter than he remembers. Kukki-Chebukki: We might even take you on as a servant if you're lucky! C'mon, time's a wastin'! Off to the southern tower! Kukki-Chebukki: Mind your manners around the future princess!
Garden of Antiquity (pt.5) - Al'Taieu
Cherukiki: I thought minced Tarutaru was back on the menu for a second there... Cherukiki: You have our royal gratitude. Cherukiki: Prince Kukki has informed me of the situation, and I commend you on your wise decision. Cherukiki: We shall be sure to put in a good word for you with His Majesty. Cherukiki: I have my brothers on standby. Once I give the word, we'll hit all the buttons at the same time! Makki-Chebukki: Did we do it!? Kukki-Chebukki: Is it open!? Cherukiki: I think it opened! Here we come, Royal Daddy!
Garden of Antiquity - Grand Palace of Hu'Xzoi
Makki-Chebukki: Open the gates! The elder prince has returned! Kukki-Chebukki: Lower the drawbridge! The younger prince is home! Cherukiki: Prepare the banquet table! The princess is starved! Louverance: Another obstacle in our path? Ulmia: What mischief are you three up to this time? Shikaree Z: I can hear it clearly now. The source must be beyond this gate. Can you hear it? Loud and clear. <----- Chose this option! Hear what? Shikaree Z: Our contact with the mothercrystal must have altered our senses in some way. That would explain this ethereal voice... Can you hear it? Loud and clear. Hear what? <----- Chose this option! Shikaree Z: You can't hear it? A voice is calling to us, suffocating in its insistence. Jabbos: It is...telling us...to pass through...this gate... Louverance: A portal of this magnificence can only lead to the audience chamber of the Zilartian king. Ulmia: Could this soul-stirring voice belong to the king himself? Ulmia: If so, then why does the gate remain closed? Are the children of Vana'diel not welcome here? Ulmia: Oh, Player name. Whatever are we to do? Ulmia: Cardinal Mildaurion gifted us with a ring that has the power to transport a person directly to Tavnazia... Ulmia: But I have no intention of returning until we discover the way to open this gate. Perhaps it may be of some small use to you, Player name.
