Yusanu: What are you doing? {curious} Sui: I'm... thinking. {uneasy} Yusanu: About what? What could you possibly be thinking about right- {confused} Sui: I don't know, Yusanu! Maybe about what to do next? How we can- h-how we- {frustrated/faltering, unconfident} Yusanu: There's nothing we can do! We're stuck in unfamiliar territory, all alone, our family and friends all captured, or- or worse- {frustrated, emotional} Sui: Don't. Don't say that. {anxious/firm} Yusanu: Urgh! I can't believe I let her convince me stealing this... this thing was worth it! If I hadn't, then... then our agreement wouldn't have fallen through, and none of this would have- {angry, self-blaming} Sui: Don't you dare pin this on Rex. You heard what that Sovereign said, they- th-they knew what we were planning for ages! {angry/defensive} *Why is this line repeated for different people* Yusanu: ...then maybe it'd have been best if you left us out of it. {cold} Sui: You- {furious} ???: Intruders! Owls, to arms! // Owl Fighter {commanding/urgent} -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ???: Woah woah woah woah woah! Alright, let's all take a step back, shall we? // Rurie {alarmed/playful, friendly} ???: Owls! Step down! Bit of a leap, jumping straight to violence- we reserve that for the obviously crown-aligned, eheheh. // Rurie {lighthearted/authoritative} Rurie: Allow me to introduce myself! The name's Rurie, member of the Canopy, captain of the Owls division! Apologies for the roughhousing, seems everyone's a little enthusiastic today, eh? {friendly/charismatic} Sui: The... Canopy...? {confused} Rurie: Questions, questions! I'm afraid it's our turn first- I've called the owls off for a time, but don't think you're off the hook just yet, young lady! {playful/warning} Owl Fighter: ...captain, are you certain about this? For all we know, they could be spies- {doubtful} Rurie: Ah ah ah! Trust in the process, my friend. Spies or not, information is valuable. {reassuring/confident} Rurie: Besides! We know how to... ah, deal with spies, as it were. Risk factor is minimal! {casual/threatening} Yusanu: So... what, are you also resisting- {cautious/questioning} Rurie: Hold it there, mister! Didn't you hear me? We'll be asking the questions here first. {confident} Rurie: Seems you're the only one who hasn't spoken yet! Well now, don't be shy. Tell me - where are you lot from? {friendly, inquiring} // The Auburn forest. Rurie: Really? Quite far afield, aren't you? Finding your way from there to here is quite an endeavor. {friendly} // Timasca. Rurie: Ahhh! Now the pieces are clicking together! I think I get it now. {playful/intrested} // Wynn. Rurie: Ohoho? Really now? How very, very curious. You're either a verrrry clever spy, or...v {confident/questioning} Sui: H... hey! Listen! I don't know who, or, or what you guys are, but-- {frustrated} Rurie: How many times must I repeat myself? I said no que- {annoyed} Sui: Shut UP! We just BARELY escaped Timasca after we- after we tried to KILL the Queen! The rest of our friends are... captured, or d- dead! {angry/explosive, emotional} Sui: So- so either leave us alone, or I'll- I'll make sure you NEVER see your loved ones a- again! {desperate/threatening} Rurie: Uh huh! {skeptical} Sui: I- I will!! Don't... don't- {defensive, faltering} Rurie: Ohoho, she's sure got some temper, huh? {teasing/ammused} Owl Fighter: Rurie... her story could explain what- {trying to convince} Rurie: Yes, my friend, I was just thinking the very same thing. Well well, new folk, if what you're saying is true, the Canopy might just be able to assist! {friendly/calculating} Rurie: I may have information regarding your allies. {luring} Sui: You- you do? Really...? {hopeful/cautious} Rurie: Ah- but! But but but, see - trust is a currency here in the Mistwoods. I can't just spill all my secrets at once, can I? {playful/calculating} Rurie: And if you'd like to earn our trust... I'll need you to, ah, deal with some things for me. {calculating} Yusanu: What kinds of things? {cautious} Rurie: Oh, nothing too difficult... I'll tell you on one condition! I'll be taking one of you with me as leverage! Eenie, meenie, money... you, little man! {reassuring/calculating, playful} Yusanu: M- me?! {surprised/slightly nervous} Rurie: You, indeed! Worry not, for I'll be sure to keep you safe, but... well, you understand the need, yes? {playful/reassuring} Sui: We can't! We can't lose... we can't lose anyone else. Please, there has to be something- {worried} Yusanu: Sui... it's... fine. I don't think we have a choice. Just... do what they ask of you. {reassuring} Rurie: Goodness, so melodramatic! Come on, I'm a trustworthy fella! You've got nothing to worry about from me. {cheerful} // Fine. // We'll be back for you, Yusanu. Yusanu: ...okay. We accept your terms, Rurie. {reluctant} Rurie: Ah-mazing! I'm glad you chose to be reasonable. In that case - I'll need the remaining two of you to go and sabotage three military structures. {cheerful/explaining} Rurie: Now, go and say your goodbyes, then come grab the list from me! {rushing/energetic} -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sui: We really... don't have a choice, do we? We, we need their support. {sad/uncertain} Sui: I just... hope Yusanu will be safe. {worried/nervous} Yusanu: Hey. You'll be fine. I'll be fine. {reassuring/calming} Yusanu: I think we can trust them for now, at least. Not like we have an alternative... {trying to stay positive} Owl Fighter: Ugh... Captain's being reckless as usual... {annoyed/muttering} Rurie: Have we finished with the heartfelt goodbyes? Excellent. Truly, I am glad you took me up on this generous offer. {cheerful/mocking} Rurie: Don't worry about your little friend over there! He'll be safe and sound amongst our Canopy. {reassuring/casual} Sui: ...and how can we trust you? To not... hurt him? {skeptical} Rurie: Ah, isn't that the issue at the heart of it all? You can't. But as I said, trust is valuable in these woods. That must go both ways! {playful} Rurie: Well, newbies! You've a list of the structures I need you to sabotage, so it really should be a simple task. {explaining} Rurie: Just find a way to... disable them! However you manage it, I can't say I really care - so long as it gets done! {carefree} Rurie: Well? {expectant} // Why are you getting us to do it? Rurie: Why, because it's a golden opportunity! The work needs doing, and you need a way to prove yourselves... {explaining} Rurie: So why not? It's less work for me to do, so I'm not complaining! {amused} // Newbies? Rurie: Newbies! That's what you are, isn't it? New to the woods, new to the world... {teasing} Rurie: ...maybe new to Fruma, even? Ah ah, wipe that expression of shock off your face! I won't tell if you don't either. {playful/calculating} // Fine, get us that list. Rurie: Inspired as ever! Good! {cheerful} Rurie: Once you're done, find me back here! Just don't take too long, eh? Wouldn't want to get bored! {explaining, playful/warning} Rurie: Ta ta, newbies! Good luck out there! And just a word of advice - stay on your guard. You never know what the mists may be hiding. {friendly, ominous} Rurie: Still a bit lost? Just use your taskbook to find the things I need broken! {explaining} Sui: So is this... the place? ''Military... Watchtower...'' I guess so. {uncertain} Sui: Those supports look rather unstable, don't they? I wonder... {thinking} Sui: C-can you deal with them, please? {nervous} Watchtower Guard: Huh?! We're under attack - it must be the Canopy! {alarmed/shouting} Sui: That's one down... ugh. {tired} Sui: Let's just get this over with. {exhausted} Sui: Check the book, where should we go next? {normal} -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sui: Alright, water pump it is... {normal} Sui: I think we can work together for this one. Go, um, blast some weak spots on the structure, and I'll... see if I can reverse the water flow. {slightly uncertain} Sui: Let's just... get rid of this hunk of junk. {determined} Sui: You, um, should try to blast some of the weak points with your magic. {slightly uncertain/suggesting} Sui: Did you manage to apply some pressure on the pipes? {normal/checking} Sui: Good, then it's... time for my part, I guess. Um, come talk to me when you're ready. {slightly nervous/uncertain} Sui: Okay... okay. Breathe. I need to... focus. {nervous/trying to calm down} Sui: After... after, um, everything that- that's happened, I've been... struggling with my cur-... ugh. You get what I mean. {explaining/nervous/frustrated} Sui: It all feels so... so... hopeless! We've lost everyone, and now- now we've lost Yusanu too, and I... I couldn't do anything! {depressed/gloomy, frustration/dispair} Sui: And the last thing we did before was... argue! And now, he's... he's safe, probably, but... I don't know. I wish we hadn't. {frustrated, uncertain/guilt} Sui: Every time I think about- about any of it, I get so... angry! And the swirling ocean around me starts raging more and more and more, and... and... {explaining/agitated/overwhelmed} Sui: I'm scared, soldier. I'm scared for Mora... Syndra... Rex, Zeph, the whole Steel Feather- for all of them! And I... there's nothing I can do... {explaining/worried/vulnerable} Sui: What if... what if they're all gone? And, and, and it's just us, forever...? {despair} // We have to keep moving. Sui: I... I know, soldier, I know! I'm... I'm trying, okay?! {conflicted} // We can't give up hope. Sui: I don't know if I, ha, have any left. Everything's... moving so fast... {uncertain/pained} Sui: It's just... too much. {pained} Sui: I... I never wanted any of this. I just... I just wanted to live... {sad/vulnerable} Sui: Sigh... okay. Sui, focus. You can do this. {trying to calm down} Sui: Aaah! Wh- what was that?! {alarmed/startled} Sui: That's... I don't... how did I... {confused} Sui: It... the ocean, it... stopped. I pulled at it, and it... it stopped moving, and... {confused/disoriented} Sui: There's... there's no time to, to think about it. It worked, so... so that's good. {trying to reason} Sui: Just... check the book, what's our next stop? {regaining composure} Sui: I... I think that was the last one. Let's go tell Rurie that it's, um, done. {determined/tired} -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sui: That's... definitely the drill. {cautious} Sui: It looks... durable. Like, um, it'll be hard to just... break. We need to find another way... {thining} Sui: There- there isn't any water nearby. So, so if any soldiers show up... please, can you deal with them? {explaining/slightly nervous} Sui: Find a way to destroy the drill, fast. {focused} Mistwoods Captain: Aha, saboteurs! You won't get away with damaging the crown's property, not on my watch! {confident} Sui: Um... good job, soldier. I didn't think about breaking the controls... {impressed/tired} Sui: We should check the book, and find our next stop. {normal} -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rurie: Well well! So the newbies return! Tell me, how did you find your trial? {friendly/playful/curious} Sui: We did what you asked, so... so tell us about our friends, already! {distrustful} Rurie: Ah ah ah! Not so fast! I'm afraid you're not done quite yet! {playful/teasing} Sui: Are you kidding me?! {angry/annoyed/disbelief} Rurie: Deadly serious, I fear! That, dear friends, was but the first part of your task. {informing/playful} // Do you not believe we did it? Rurie: Oh, but on the contrary! I received word immediately once you had done the deed. {casual/confident} // Why do you need us to do everything? Sui: This... this is just getting ridiculous. {annoyed} Sui: Ugh... we had an agreement! You can't just- {angry} Rurie: But I can. If you want our support, you'll do what we ask. If it is any consolation, this is the last I will ask of you before our deal is concluded. {calm/firm, reassuring} Sui: ... Fine. What do you want? {resigned} Rurie: I would ask of you to kindly... ehm, transport an Aldwell citizen here. Do make sure you aren't spotted by anyone else! That could cause... issues. {explaining/slightly mischievous, warning} Sui: Are... are they expecting us? {confused} Rurie: Ah! Allow me to rephrase. You need to kidnap them. {informing/cheerful, nonchalant} Sui: Wh- what?! {shocked} Rurie: Yes, indeed! Kidnap them, bring them here, and we will deal with the rest. {nonchalant/dismissive} Sui: You want us to just... just snatch a random citizen from their home? And, and what do you mean ''deal with the rest?'' {angry/disbelief} Rurie: No questions, young lady! Not if you'd like to ensure the safety of your friend, that is. {threating/confident/polite} Sui: You-... how-... what-... {disbelief/speechless} Sui: You didn't even tell us who we're looking for! {frustrated} Rurie: Ahaha, apologies, my mistake! You'll be looking for the man named Nisen. Bring him here, but don't take too long! {playful} Sui: Nisen. Fine. soldier, let's... talk about this outside the cave. {resigned/tense} -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sui: We, we need to find a way to get Yusanu back, and... and get out of here. {determined} // We don't know where he is. Sui: I know, I know, I know! And if we start looking, they'll, they'll notice. {nervous} Sui: It's just... weird. This last task. I don't get it. {uncertain/confused/suspecting} Sui: Even if Rurie's out of his mind... I don't see him just- just killing an innocent person. Especially if they're, um, a resistance group. {thinking, uncertain} Sui: Ugh. I don't know. Maybe if we investigate this Nisen person, we'll... figure out Rurie's reasoning. {frustrated} Sui: Let's head to Aldwell. {decisive} // We just... need to do what he says. Sui: I'm... sick and tired of following that clown's orders. But you're right... {frustrated/resigned} Sui: I'll meet you in Aldwell then. {resigned} Sui: Phew. Getting up here really wasn't the easiest... the Red Fox back in Auburn really, ha, pales in comparison. {exhausted} Sui: I've been trying to get information on Nisen, but... people don't seem to like me much. {explaining, disappointed} Sui: Maybe you'll have some better luck? {hopeful} -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Masah: ... {normal} // Do you know of anyone named Nisen? Masah: ...no. {reluctant/guarded} Masah: Why're you asking, stranger? {wary} // How are you doing? Masah: ...I'm fine. {distant} Masah: Is that all? {impatient} // Goodbye. Masah: Hm... {thinking} -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shu: ... {normal} // Do you know of anyone named Nisen? Shu: ...nope, sorry. {dismissive} Shu: I'm a bit busy, so... {explaining/implying the conversation should end} // Fine day today, right? Shu: ...it's okay. {normal} Shu: Mist is a bit thick. {informing} // Goodbye. Shu: Hm. Bye... {normal} -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jamie: ...uh. ...hello...stranger. {suspicious/nervous} // You seem tense. Jamie: ...stop...stop looking at me that closely. {irritated/anxious} Jamie: ...am...am I about to die? {scared} // Goodbye. Jamie: ...rrrright. {doubtful} // Do you know of anyone named Nisen? Jamie: ... {confused} Jamie: ...I don't...see it. You haven't got one- Er. I. I mean. Nothing. No. Definitely, uh...definitely not. {confused, realizing/alarmed} // Haven't got one... what? Jamie: I can't- look, I'm really not supposed to be talking to you at all, and- Wait, that counts as- urgh! {explaining/frantic} Jamie: ...well. ...sorry, Nisen... I. I do know. I shouldn't be telling you, but I do know. Please don't hurt me. {defeated, fearful/hesitant} Jamie: You need to take the zipline north-west. Not the one that goes upwards, though. {explaining/nervous} // You definitely know him Jamie: ...I'm. I. You. ...ugh, I'm no good at this. {flustered/embarrassed} -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sui: Um, let's hope he's not home... {hopeful/nervous} Sui: That's odd... the latest entry's dated from weeks ago. {confused} Sui: It's like they stopped writing them abruptly... {thinking} Nisen: Is someone in there? {wary} Sui: Eep! That must be Nisen! We need to think of an excuse... {panicked/whispering} //There's a thin layer of dust on top of the bed. //Seems like no one has slept here in a while. Nisen: Excuse me? What are you doing in my abode? {inquiring/displeased/suspicious} Nisen: If I am not mistaken, stumbling into other people's abodes is not a custom. {irritated} Sui: Oh... I- I'm so sorry! I- I- we- we thought this was the... bakery. {panicked/rushed} Nisen: The... bakery...? {confused} Nisen: Oh. Yes, wrong building. The bakery is down at ground level. {explaining} Sui: Oh! Thank you for the directions. We are... so sorry for the misunderstanding. {grateful, apologetic/embarassed} Nisen: Please, leave now. {firm} Sui: That was close... I'm, um, surprised he believed us. {nervous/relief} // Bakery? Really? Sui: I- I panicked, okay! But it worked, didn't it? {defensive} Sui: He was... surprisingly chatty. That's a nice change compared to everyone else. {relief} Sui: Though, um, he was a bit... odd. He didn't seem too certain about his answers... {thinking} Sui: I don't know. What are you thinking? Any theories? {curious} // He's been brainwashed. Sui: I... was thinking the same thing. It'd explain the diary entries stopping abruptly... {thinking} // Maybe he's just like that. Sui: Maybe... I guess he could be. I might just be jumping to conclusions. {uncertain} // We've entered a parallel universe. Sui: Uh... let's workshop that one a little. {awkward} Sui: Look, I managed to snag a schedule off his bedside table. {slightly proud} Sui: Listen to this. ''Deliver hunting tools from weaponsmith through southern exit at noon.'' {reading} Sui: It's weird, right? Something's definitely off with him... but still, kidnapping him and handing him off to some... some random bird-man! I don't like it. {thinking/uneasy, uncertain} Sui: But... we don't have much of a choice. Let's camp out outside the southern gate and wait... {resigned, decisive} -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sui: Hey! Up here! {shouting} Sui: Guess we'll just have to wait... {resigned} Sui: I... ha, I've been feeling really out of my depth, here. I've never had to do this much without... um, without their support. {unconfident/uneasy, vulnerable} Sui: But... you're here to help, so. Um. Thanks for- for sticking with me. I... I don't think I'd have made it this far without you. {grateful, sincere} Sui: Oh! There he is! {alert} Sui: Ouch... dumb move... {pained} Sui: Um... I think it worked, though. Can you help me? {slightly embarrassed} Sui: That was... easier than I expected it to be. {slightly surprised} Sui: I kind of just, um, landed on top of him? And... and here we are. {awkward/explaining} Sui: We should... probably get moving. I don't want anyone to- to see us! {urgent} // Got your magic under control? Sui: Um! Control is... maybe not the right word. I... ha, I tried to freeze him. So... still working on it. I guess. {explaining/awkward, slightly embarrassed} Sui: ......how are we going to move him? {confused} // So, how do we carry him? Sui: Um! I... didn't think about that. {sheepish} -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rurie: Well well, newbies! Looks like you could use a hand! {cheerful/confident} Sui: Aah! Wh- where did you come from?! {startled} Rurie: Why, from the trees, of course! I see you've managed to subdue the good mister Nisen over here, well done, well done. {playful, pleased} Sui: ...we've done everything you've asked for. Now- now tell us what you know!! {tense, demanding} Rurie: Oh, dear, you thought you two were done? Ha! Ahahaha! {playful/teasing} Sui: ...what?! {disbelief} Rurie: Kidding! Kidding, kidding- goodness, the looks on your faces! What's a little practical joke between friends, eh? {playful} Rurie: Fine! Fine, fine, I get it! Jeez, lady... {placating} Rurie: I'll cut it with the jokes... for now. Good news! You've passed the test! {relenting, cheerful} Sui: So, will you- {hopeful} Rurie: Yes, yes, settle down, I will tell you. Give me a moment! Goodness. You're an impatient one, aren't you? {amused, teasing} Rurie: I'll be bringing you two to the Canopy! But, ah, one little precaution- I'll have to blindfold you till we arrive. Just a security measure! {explaining, casual/nonchalant, cheerful} Sui: Ugh... you know what, I don't even care anymore. Just... bring us to Yusanu. {exhausted/frustrated, defeated} Rurie: Perfecto! Let's head off then! {cheerful} Rurie: Ugh! Fine fine fine! But hurry up. {impatient} -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fuhue: Rurie, care to explain yourself? Why did you bring these outsiders here? {stern/authoritative} Cileon: One was enough... {annoyed/blunt} Rurie: Ah, you know how it is, Fuhue! I was oh so bored on patrol this morning! You lot aren't exactly the life of the party.. {playful, teasing} Fuhue: You know Azael has clear rules on recruiting. Did you file the necessary paperwork? Because I didn't see anything on my desk regarding this. {lecturing, stern} Rurie: The... ah, the paperwork was real? I always thought it was something you were making up for the fun of it. {slightly caught off guard, sheepish} Fuhue: No. We have the protocols in place for a reason, Captain Rurie. Will you find the time to review them yourself, or must I have Captain Cileon run you through them? {frim, authoritative/lecturing} Rurie: Yes, yes, I understand the importance- though, I believe Cileon shares my views on the protocols. Isn't that right, Cileon? {deflecting, teasing} Cileon: Dumb. Throw 'em off platform. {flat/deadpan} Sui: H- hey! Don't just act like, like we aren't right here! {indignant} Fuhue: Cileon! That is also against our protocols. We wouldn't want to leave a body for the crown to find, we have far simpler forms of disposal. {authoritative/lecturing} Rurie: And of course, we need to torture any necessary information out of them first - I have heard this a dozen times over. {mocking} Fuhue: Ah! You were listening! Good, Captain Rurie. We'll knock some sense into you yet. {sarcastic/approving} Fuhue: I did have some deerlings bring Nisen into our processing room earlier. Thank you for your service, Captain. {professional} Rurie: Ah, no problem! Hardly even broke a sweat! {proudly, playful} Rurie: Well, I'll be catching up with you later! I suppose if we're following protocols, I'll need to hand these kids off to Azael. {casual, teasing} Rurie: Hey hey, friends! I'm a bit thirsty, so I'll be leaving you now! Think you'll manage to find Azael yourselves? {carefree} -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cileon: Hm. Rurie told you to find Azael. {noraml} Cileon: What is it? {direct} // Who are you? Cileon: Cileon. Fox Captain. {short} Cileon: Swordsman, too. {normal} // Where's Azael? Cileon: Azael...? {thinking} Cileon: South-west. {short} // Is Rurie always like this? Cileon: Like what? {confused} Cileon: Rurie is... Rurie. {shrug off} // Goodbye! Cileon: ... {acknowledging} -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fuhue: The schedule's always so busy... and now I have even more to deal with. {tired} Fuhue: But I suppose I can squeeze you in for questions. {normal} // Who are you? Fuhue: I am Fuhue, Team Captain of the Deer clan. {formal} Fuhue: I also function as the overall manager of the Canopy, not just the Deer operations. {explaining} // Where is Azael? Fuhue: Master Azael can be found in his hut... it's just to the south-west of here. {explaining} Fuhue: From what I've heard, your friend is over there as well. {explaining} // Is Rurie always like this? Fuhue: I'm afraid so. Insufferable as always... {irritated} Fuhue: But he's incredibly talented at what he does. No one else could run the Owls like he does. {acknowledging} // Goodbye! Fuhue: I will see you later. {formal} Fuhue: Or not! It's Master Azael's decision as to whether you stay or not. Just hope you manage to impress him. {normal, warning} -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Azael: I have heard about your adventures in the Mistwoods thus far. Very impressive work. {calm} Sui: Not to interrupt you, but we've been running around all day, and I'm tired. Where's Yusanu? {exhausted/impatient} Yusanu: I'm here! Safe and sound! {cheerful/reassuring} Sui: Yusanu! {relieved} Sui: Oh, you're okay... I'm so glad. {relieved} Azael: Yes, reunited at last. But now that you are here, it is time for business. {calm} Azael: I had Yusanu inform me of your adventures in the Industrial District. {explaining} Azael: And it would appear our causes are in alignment... to dismantle the crown. We here in the Canopy have taken a very active approach to this end. {explaining, confident} Azael: We had established three teams, each with their own responsibility. Each team attacks the crown on different fronts. {explaining} Azael: The Owls are our eyes and ears. They are also our most efficient assassins. Captain Rurie, who you have already had the pleasure of meeting, is one of our most lethal members. {explaining, acknowledging} Azael: The Foxes are our assault team. They are skilled swordsmen utilizing techniques native to the Mistwoods. They are trained to never lose a duel. {explaining, confident} Azael: The Deers are our command team, the brains behind the operation. They are also responsible for... taking care of spies within Aldwell. {explaining} Sui: Spies...? {curious/concerned} Azael: Spies. That man you brought in, Nisen... I fear that is no longer Nisen. Weeks ago, he had been replaced by one of the crown's elite spies. We know them as Changelings. {grave/explaining} Azael: The Mistwoods have been plagued for years by these masterful creatures of disguise. Whenever one is recognized, we capture them and hold them for questioning. {serious/explaining} Azael: The people of our region have developed a form of identification, the medallions. If you do not possess one, many will refuse to speak with you. {explaining} Sui: Um... Azael, sir, I don't mean to come off as rude, but... Rurie told us there were news on our friends from the Roughworks. {hesitant, hopeful} Azael: In a sense, there are. However, we still are processing the information the Owls have returned with from the festival. I cannot offer anything just yet. {explaining} Azael: Rest assured, we will not withhold anything once we have gone through everything. {reassuring} Azael: I give you my word that we will continue searching for any word of your friends. {promising} Sui: It... it finally feels like we have a second to breath. {relief} Sui: I'll stay with Yusanu and wait for them to sort through the information. {normal} Yusanu: I'm going to focus on figuring out what this device is used for. {curious} Sui: It must have be worth stealing it... somehow. {thinking} *Might be Yusanu's line not sure*
