(Upon entering the Dungeon)
(An assorted group of mages wait in the Meeting room and argue around a large circular table.)
|
Summoner Rhum |
You're late. Is Ron here yet? |
|
Returning Razin |
He said he had something to do before the Meeting. That's why I came first to represent Terra Cotta. |
|
Smilla |
Stop whining and give him a break, Rhum. Why are you so impatient all of a sudden? Patience is supposed to be your only virtue. |
|
Summoner Rhum |
Did you bring those poor little things with you again, Smilla? You're a summoner, but you learned how to sacrifice spirits without communing with them first. Your spirits are suffering because of your twisted convictions, you know. |
|
Smilla |
Oh, are you so stressed out, from taking care of those helpless Circle Mages for Central Park's gardener? |
|
Summoner Rhum |
You'd better watch your mouth, unless you want to go through that same unpleasant experience like last time. |
|
Smilla |
Ho ho, even if I did, you'd be too cowardly to give it to me. |
|
Summoner Rhum |
Smilla, I'm telling you, if you say one more- |
(A voice breaks the conversation.)
|
Niu |
Kate! |
(Meanwhile, outside the Stadium, the Adventurer follows Nihilistic Ron. The clamoring within the Stadium increases.)
|
Nihilistic Ron |
Things are already heating up in there.
What are you doing? Come on in. |
(Nihilistic Ron enters the Stadium. In the distance, a blue haired mage, Laura, who is observing the Adventurer's movements, turns and flees.)
(Cuts back to the Meeting room.)
|
Niu |
What were you thinking, bringing Pai to such a dangerous place!? |
|
Pai |
Niu, I- |
(Kate moves to stand in-between Niu and Pai.)
|
Kate |
Niu. |
(Nihilistic Ron enters.)
|
Nihilistic Ron |
It seems everyone got here early. |
|
Smilla |
If you wanted to see a fight, you came at the right time. Things are really starting to get interesting. |
|
Nihilistic Ron |
I can tell. I didn't know the Circle Mages and the Guardians hated each other so much. Where's Walkman, the Royal Messenger? |
|
Monica of the Library |
The Royal Messenger? Good gods! They have the guts to call him that? Does Sarpoza really want to be a king? |
|
Nihilistic Ron |
He's already acting like a king. At least in Harlem.
Maybe he really believes he is a king. That would explain why he took the Devil Girl and those other misfits under his wing, wouldn't it? |
|
Monica of the Library |
That's not fair, Ron. We already made it clear that the Ancient Library had nothing to do with the Elting Memorial incident. Are you still suspicious of us? |
|
Nihilistic Ron |
Well, Monica. I trust you, but not those other Witches. Most Witches never stop being dangerously curious about everything. |
(The Adventurer enters.)
|
Niu |
Adventurer! |
|
Kate |
What are you doing here?
Niu! Are you...? |
|
Returning Razin |
Ron, who's your friend? |
|
Nihilistic Ron |
The most famous adventurer in Harlem nowadays. Haven't you heard? |
(If the Adventurer is an Elementalist)
-
|
Returning Razin |
You're also on the threshold to transcendence. Nice to meet you. |
(If the Adventurer is a Summoner)
-
|
Smilla |
What? Why are you staring at me like that? |
|
Adventurer |
... |
(If the Adventurer is a Battle Mage)
-
|
Ikki the Vikki |
Whoa, so you're that fabled adventurer! You look like you're pretty good at fighting. |
(If the Adventurer is a Witch)
-
|
Monica of the Library |
Ho ho. Nice to meet someone who walks the same path as I. |
(If the Adventurer is an Enchantress)
-
|
Smilla |
That's a cute doll. It reminds me of the witches of the Black Mansion. |
(If the Adventurer is an Elemental Bomber)
-
|
Returning Razin |
You have a pretty rough way of handling the elements. |
(If the Adventurer is a Glacial Master)
-
|
Smilla |
You look as cold as ice. How cute! |
(If the Adventurer is a Blood Mage)
-
|
Monica of the Library |
Sanguinem... You're playing with fire. |
(If the Adventurer is a Swift Master)
-
|
Ikki the Vikki |
(Monica! I felt the wind stop for a moment when he entered the room.) |
(If the Adventurer is a Dimension Walker)
-
|
Summoner Rhum |
Are you a summoner, too? Your energy is completely different from mine, though. |
|
Kate |
(If the Adventurer is not a Female Mage)
-
...Adventurer, I'm sorry, but this meeting is strictly among the organizations of Pandemonium. Even you are not welcomed here. We simply can't have any outsiders.
(If the Adventurer is a Female Mage)
-
...[Nickname], this meeting is strictly among the organizations of Pandemonium. Even you are not welcomed here. We simply can't have any outsiders.
|
|
Nihilistic Ron |
Outsiders? Wow, that's harsh, Kate. The Adventurer is here to observe the meeting, just like that young Elementalist next to you.
And I don't have to explain how this hero has earned the right, now do I? |
(Kate remains silent. A loud voice is heard in the distance.)
|
??? |
I'm sorry I'm late. |
(A large man escorted by two personnel enters the Meeting room.)
