Burial Ground of Time

More Filthoids are coming...

Stay close, Vita. If necessary, give out the secret signals.

We made them up earlier so as not to alert the Filthoids up the mountain, remember?

Yes.

Alright, a quick check, Two pats on the right shoulder means...?

"Watch your back."

And two taps on the chest?

"Come closer."

And scraping on the nose?

"Everything's okay now."

Good. And the last one, three quick blinks?

...I forgot it.

Remember, three quick blinks means...

...I'm not interested in that signal, and I won't remember it anyway.

...

Is this place... a temple?

...Yes.

Someone once left that flying ship here.

And... a "key."

Listen, thrust your sword right in there.

Like this?

So the key is... this sword?

Yes. Your sword was never meant to hurt.

Let's head towards the top of the mountain. There used to be an airship there. If it's still around, we might be able to make it out.

Is this your idea of "accurate intel," Randy? You gave me your word.

The soldiers did their best with the Filthoids. These are indeed unforeseen circumstances. But we did find something valuable on this island today...

Alchemical tools she has used and an airship with a Legion serial number on it.

You realise we're looking for "No. 0," not this useless junk, right?

We've been searching for over a decade... But our maritime unit intercepted several of the villagers' vessels. They might be able to dig up some...

Were those gunshots?

Randy.

Yes, ma'am!

...That's how it happened.

The Filthoids attacked you "for no reason" after you came here, and you managed to open the hidden path "by chance"... Is that really your story?

We're telling the truth! Let her go!

...!

Chief Sibylle, we've checked her spinal structure and confirmed that...

She's the "No. 0" we've been looking for.

...!

Fortune has finally smiled upon me.

Take her back.

As for her...

Remember... Vita, you must remember...

Your power... the power of Resonance...

If you wish to save all this...

Hang in there! I got you...

Berry!

Give it up, No. 0. Even the toughest blade has its breaking point.

Come back with me, and you'll live, so will this kid you care so much about.

Otherwise, she will...

...Give me your word.

Hmm?

I'll go back with you, but you have to promise to let her go.

Give me your word! Or, you can take two corpses back!

Perhaps I wasn't clear, This is not a negotiation, it's an order.

...Berry.

...?! You...!

Get out of here, and live.

No...!!

Quick question, Vita. The "three quick blinks" means...

I've got this, Berry. Three quick blinks means...

"Even if left all alone, you should be brave and live on."

"Until the day we meet again."

Run!

You can't get away!

Are these Filthoids... dead?

It seems someone had a fight with them just before we arrived.

Could it be one of the villagers... No, we were the first to open that door.

Anyway, thanks to that person, we don't have to deal with these Filthoids ourselves.

Whoever it was, they're not to be underestimated. We must be vigilant.

Are these Filthoids... dead?

It seems someone used to live here.

This was your home, am I right, Berry?

...I...

...Yes, and no. It was OUR home.

Our home? But I don't remember a thing.

...It's okay. Maybe it's all for the best. After we make it out, we'll build a new home.

Quest failed. Try again

Quest failed. Try again

This is my first time in the Cocytus Province. Is this how the people here show their hospitality?

I don't want to bother you, I just want to... strike a small "bargain."

I'll pay you whatever you want, and all you have to do, well, it will be a piece of cake.

The ship is at the mountaintop. After a short break, we'll push on.

...Can't believe we'll be saying goodbye to Purgatorio Island soon.

...You creatures just can't give us a break, can you?

But up until now, there has been no answer. Only endless flowing quicksand covering my vision, and...

him.

No...

Don't... take her...

No chance we're leaving by sea. Guess we'll have to count on that thing...

Listen, there's actually another "ship" on this island, up in the mountain ruins.

A ship... on the mountain?

Yes, a "ship" that flies. Now follow me.

Remem▇▇... ▇▇, you must ▇▇▇...

Your ▇▇... the power of ▇▇...

▇▇▇ wish to ▇ all this...

Wait, I can't hear you...

How many of them are there...

Let's get to the top to shake them off.
