Pieces of a Lost Tablet

Hmm... I heard there was valuable treasure to be found near here... But I have absolutely no idea what could be of value from around here.

Broken machines, chipped tableware... I see nothing but garbage!

Nothing but garbage... I can't believe my ears.

Hmm?

Is that you Claude?! Surprised to see you here.

Yeah. If this isn't an unexpected coincidence... I also like to beachcomb this beach from time to time.

You like to beach...what...?

Beachcombing is the act of observing or collecting things that have washed up on shore.

Somehow, it seems that the coast is now home to the valuable goods of the dead land nations. I sometimes come to see if items from my Kingdom of Kelkale may also have drifted to shore.

I see... So you were searching for your country's clues.

Of course, that's not the only reason. Some of the stuff that drifts ashore is quite valuable to the right person.

How silly of me to think that others wouldn't come here to beachcomb like I do.

At a glance, it may all look like garbage, but some of this stuff that drifts ashore has serious historical value.

I-I see... So would you be so kind as to tell me which items around here particularly valuable?

Hm. Among the things I've collected, the most valuable have been stone slabs detailing the histories of lost countries.

Pieces of a Lost Tablet... Those DO sound valuable! Let's look for them at once!

Good luck to both of us. We'll meet again if destiny allows it.

Good luck to both of us. We'll meet again if destiny allows it.

So how exactly should we do our searching...?

Leave that to me! I will search the beach for items that qualify as relics and collect them!

Then let's get started!

Measuring...

The depths of the beach... At three o' clock, I detect a stone slab in the range of a hundred to hundreds of years old!

Something over a hundred years old is bound to have value! All right! Let's go get it!

Oh, it's you guys. Combing the beach again today?

Oh, it's you guys. Combing the beach again today?

B-Beach...uh... Anyway, we thought something of value might have drifted ashore around here again.

Yeah. Valuable relics sometimes drift to this beach. Rock slabs that detail the histories of lost countries, for example. They are of particular value.

I hope we're able to find the same kind of thing again...

Can you start your search, Riica?

You can count on me!

Measuring...

Good news. I hope and pray that you find exactly what you're looking for.

Good news. I hope and pray that you find exactly what you're looking for.

Yeah! I hope you find what you're looking for, too!

The response...is from further into the beach, right?! Let's get going!

Oh? This looks like it's quite rare. A stone slab perhaps?

Heeey!

Huh? Wh-Who are you guys?

We're searching the beach for items... Would you mind giving us the stone you picked up just now?

Umm... No. You're after items that have value to them, aren't you? Just when I come across something good, you want me to just hand it over to you?!

This is just my opinion. But finders keepers, losers weepers!

That's tough... I need an idea... I know!

Is there anything you'd be willing to trade for it? If there's something in particular you want, we'd be more than happy to find it for you.

Really?! That's great! In that case, I want you to bring me an Infinite Eternal Unlimited Gear. Find it for me, and I'll make the trade.

An Infinite...umm... What the heck is that?

It's a part of something or whatever, but isn't the name cool?! It's... It's got a romantic feel to it! And that's why I want you to bring me an Infinite Eternal Unlimited Gear!

Okay, then. So you just want us to find that part.

This gear or whatever. Where can we find it?

Shall I search my database?

...... One hit detected!

Really?!

It's a part that removes the machine limiter and unleashes maximum performance! Production has already ceased. But it appears that it can be found in the Industrial Ruins.

It's settled then, let's go to the Industrial Ruins.

You guys again. You're gonna say you want the stone slab I found again, aren't you? If so, you're gonna need to find me another Infinite Eternal Unlimited Gear. I'll trade for one of those.

That part... Where do we get it again?

The Industrial Ruins!

That's right. Let's get going then!

You said this is the place, Riica... But I don't see anything that looks like the right gear.

Aldo! I detect a strange energy reading in this sector. Our target must be located somewhere in this vicinity!

And just as you say that, something is here!

Ack! Not the talkative type! Let's do this!

Counterattack posture initiated!

Dammit! There are even more Synth Soldiers!

I believe it transmitted a distress signal before dying!

I guess we just gotta do this! Let's go!

Phew... Is it finally over?

No, Aldo! A high energy response is approaching! The enemy will be here before long!

What are you saying?!

It matches the high energy response I detected... No doubt about it! This enemy has the part we need!

It's a Synth Human part?!

This individual uses the gear parts to cancel its own function limiter. It appears to be unleashing its abilities. The Infinite Eternal Unlimited Gear... The name says it all!

This is no time to be impressed!

We need to stop it to get that part. Riica! Let's go!

Understood!

Phew. I guess it's finally over.

We have successfully obtained the Infinite Eternal Unlimited Gear!

That's long. Can we just call it the Unlimited Gear?

Let's head back to Last Island and trade the gear for the slab!

As promised, we found the part that you wanted.

Oh wow! The Infinite Eternal Unlimited Gear is finally mine! It's not only the name! It looks cool, too! Thanks! As promised, I will give you the rock slab I found on the beach!

See you around!

Phew... We really had to work for it, but we finally got the rock slab we were after.

But I wonder how much this thing is really worth... I really have no idea.

This information can be easily obtained through measurements of condition and era!

Really?! Then go to it!

Appraising...

Appraisal complete! Top class artifact, two hundred years old!

Really?! It was worth the trouble to get it then!

Appraising...

Appraisal complete! Undamaged artifact, one hundred years old! While not a top class artifact, it is sufficiently valuable!

At least we got it. Thanks for all your help.
