Lilah: I don't know how to thank you, Cyan. Thank you so very much. Cyan: It's nothing. I should take you to Chatam Village. Your bother is waiting. Lilah: Thank you. Lilah: Danil! Danil: Lilah! Lilah: Danil! Danil: Lilah, is it really you? I'm so glad you're alright. Lilah: Danil, oh Danil. Lufia: Everything is alright now. Lilah... Cyan: What's the matter, Lufia? Lufia: I....I'm just so happy. Danil: I don't know how to thank you for bringing Lilah back safely. I.... Cyan: Please. Don't worry about it. Lufia: Just be sure to take good care of your sister. Danil: I give you my word. Lilah: Cyan. It's just a rumor, but there's someone in Treck who knows about the Sinistrals. Treck is southwest of Sheran. It's far, so be careful. May your journey be safe. Good luck, Cyan. Old Man: I sense unusual energy from you. Did you battle a strong enemy lately? Cyan: How did you know that? Old Man: Because I used to be a knight with the Guy Legion. Cyan: Guy? You mean Guy of Doom Island? Old Man: Yes. It was a long time ago. Cyan: Do you know anything about Gades? Old Man: So, you know about the Sinistral Gades. Pretty rare these days for one so young! Cyan: Know him? I fought him! Old Man: Wha....what's that? You fought Gades? Is this true? Cyan: Yes. Old Man: If you're telling the truth, that explains the imbalance. But....Gades was destroyed. Cyan: Please tell me what you know about Gades. I must know. Old Man: Why such interest in the Sinistrals? Don't you fear for your life? Cyan: I am Maxim's descendant. Old Man: Maxim? You? Hmm. Follow me. Old Man: Ainea. You there? Ainea: What is it, uncle? Who's that behind you? Uncle: This is Cyan. Show them to the East Cave. I want him to meet the One. Ainea: Are you sure? I mean, the One said he wouldn't meet anybody. Uncle: It's alright. He's a descendant of Maxim. They must meet. Ainea: Maxim? Cyan, please come with me to the East Cave. Cyan: East Cave? Ainea: An important person lives just beyond the East Cave. He often helps me. Please come. Ainea: Just a moment. I'll open the door. Ainea: It's open. Go through there. Old Man: Oh, Ainea. Was I expecting you today? Ainea: No. I'm here for a special reason. Old Man: Who's that behind you? Ainea: This is Cyan, a descendant of Maxim. Cyan: Pleasure to meet you. Old Man: Descendant of Maxim? Then would you be so kind as to focus your thoughts? Cyan: Thoughts? Old Man: Just think of any one thing. That will be enough. Cyan: Sure. Old Man: Strong energy. Julst like Maxim's The very same power runs through you, too. Cyan: You know about Maxim? Who are you? Old Man: I am Guy. I fought with Maxim against the Sinistrals. Cyan: You're Guy? But....! Guy: No need to be suprised. I'm over 100 but still kicking! Now. What would you want with such an old man? Cyan: Guy. I battled Gades. Guy: Gades? But...... That's not possible! He lost at Doom Island! Cyan: But it was Gades. Guy: Impossible! Absolutely out of the question! Lufia: Guy. Cyan isn't one to lie. Guy: Hmmm? Who is that? Cyan: This is Lufia, a childhood friend. We're travelling together. Lufia: How do you do? Guy: Lufia, eh? Hmmm. Lufia: ......? Cyan: If you know anything of Gades and the Sinistrals, please tell me. Guy: It hurts to recall. But, if Gades has really returned, there's no time to rest. Not even for me! Ainea: You can't, Guy. You'll hurt yourself! Guy: But I can't just sit still. I....I can......ugh!! Ainea: Guy! What's wrong? Guy: It's my time. It's.... Ainea: Don't say that. You'll be fine. Guy: Cyan. Seek Artea, the elf. They live a long time. I'm sure he'll help you. Cyan: Is Artea alive, too? Where can I find him? Guy: There's one in Grenoble who knows about Artea. Remember.... find....Artea. . . Cyan: I understand. I'll look for him. Cyan: Don't give in to the Sinistrals. You mustn't! You have Maxim's blood.... You.... Ainea: Guy! Guy! No! Ainea: A great warrior, Guy. May he rest in peace. We'll never forget you. Ainea: What will you do now? Cyan: We'll go to Grenoble. Someone there knows about Artea. Ainea: Well, be careful. I'll look forward to the day when peace comes to this land. Cyan: Guy. I will defeat the Sinistrals. I promise. Rest. Rest peacefully. Cyan: Let's go, Lufia. Lufia: Ok. Ainea: Lufia. Ainea: It may be that the only one who can defeat the Sinistals is one who has Maxim's blood. Lufia: Yes. I know. Ainea: Stay close to Cyan. Your support is more important than any sword or armor! Lufia: I won't let Cyan get hurt, no matter what. I.... Ainea: Lufia. You be careful, too. Man: I am Aguro, commander of the Lorbenian Army. I came when I heard that Gades invaded Sheran. Can you tell me anything? Cyan: You want to know about Gades? Aguro: And you as well, I see. Do you know anything? Cyan: You may not believe me, but I fought him. Aguro: What! Is this true? Who are you? What's your name? Cyan: I am Cyan, knight of Alekia. Aguro: Cyan. Tell me more of your battle. Let's dine together at my camp. You will be my guest. Aguro: Wha....What! Cyan: Monsters! Monsters everywhere! Aguro: How interesting! We'll talk later, Cyan. Come on! Let's get them all! Aguro: Never before have I seen such swordsmanship! Lufia: Of course. Cyan is a descendant of Maxim. Aguro: Descendant of Maxim? So, you were destined to meet Gades. Most people flee when they hear that name. Cyan: If Gades and the Sinistrals have returned, my quest is to destroy them. Aguro: I see. By the way, Cyan, what are your plans now? Cyan: I'm off to Grenoble. It seems someone there knows about Artea. Aguro: Grenoble is southwest of Lorbenia, I believe. I've been there. You can use my ship to cross the sea. Cyan: Really? I'd appreciate that. Aguro: Hey! No problem. Trust me. Soldier: Commander. The sh....ship was sunk by....by monsters. Aguro: What!! Soldier: This town has no more ships. Aguro: Hmm. So, Cyan. First let's find a ship. Lufia: Will it be alright? Can we trust him? Soldier: What should I do, sir? Cyan: Help to restore the town. Understand? Sailor: The Maberia has been taken by monsters! The captain is missing! It's the end! Captain: My Maberia was seen at a small island to the west. Have to travel through a dangerous cave. What should I do? Cyan: This must be the Maberia. Lufia: Cyan! Behind you! Aguro: They're the ones who stole the Maberia! Lufia: Cyan. Let's board the ship and sail to Treck. Cyan: Good idea. Sailor: The Ma....Maberia!! You found it? The captain is up at the lodge. Quickly! Go and tell him! Captain: Found my Maberia? Where? The Port? Right! Of course. Let's go! Captain: My Maberia! Thank you! Anytime you want to go to Lorbenia, you ride free. That's my thanks to you. Captain: Right. Anchors away! Aguro: I'll return to headquarters to officially request the dispatch of the Lorbenian Army. And you, Cyan? Cyan: Well, first...... Lufia: We're in Lorbenia now. I'd love to see those new dresses at the big shop. Can we go, Cyan? Cyan: I knew you'd say that! Alright. I'll hang around here a little longer. Aguro: I'll come to the inn later. I have many questions to ask you. Lufia: Wow!! Lufia: Look at all these dresses! Oh, Cyan! What do you think about this one? Cyan: Well, it's fine, I guess. It's pretty, too. It must be pricey! Lufia: Oh, I love this one! Don't you think it's perfect, Cyan? Cyan: Give me a break! How much? 5,800 gold pieces?! That's crazy! You can buy plated mail for that! Lufia: I know. I know. It's expensive. Lady: We're having a sale today Lufia: Sale! Cyan, I'm going to check it out. Boy: Piece of cake! Boy: Let's see. What do I have today? Cyan: Hey! Boy: What? Who are you? Cyan: Give me the gold you took from Lufia. Boy: Wha....what are you talking about? Are you calling me a thief? Cyan: Don't lie to me. I saw you! Boy: ............ Cyan: Don't try to run away. Boy: Darn it! I haven't done anything! Lufia: Cyan? Here you are. What? Who is this child? What's going on? Cyan: Lufia. Do you have the gold? Lufia: What? Money? No, I don't! Did he...? Cyan: Mmm. What should we do with him? Let's see. The army! Lufia: Wait, Cyan. He's just a child. We have the money. Let him go. Cyan: But....! Lufia: It's alright. Lufia: Boy. Don't you ever do this again. Can you promise me that? Boy: Yes! I promise. Lufia: Good. You can go now. Cyan: You're too kind, Lufia. Lufia: It's just that I know he has some reason to steal. Innkeeper: Hello. Were you having problems with Lou at the big shop? Lufia: You know about him, do you? Innkeeper: Everyone around here knows about him, His name's Lou Shaia. He's the son of Professor Raile Shaia, Cyan: Professor Raile Shaia? Who's that? Innkeeper: He's studying something weird. I heard he's travelling around the world to find whatever it is. Lufia: Then, why doesn't he take Lou with him? Innkeeper: There are so many dangerous places out there. He decided to leave his son at home. Cyan: But why does Lou steal? Innkeeper: I hear that Raile Shaia's research doesn't pay very well. I guess he doesn't pay Lou well, either. Lufia: Some father! Innkeeper: For that reason, people in this town sort of ignore what Lou steals. Lufia: So that was it. Now I understand. Innkeeper: Oops. I took too long. So. 20 gold pieces. Are you staying? Cyan: Aguro. Aguro: Oh, it's you, Cyan. I was coming to visit you. Cyan. You're going ahead with your journey to destroy the Sinistrals. Am I correct? Cyan: Yes. The Sinistrals are evil. If they have returned, then I must defeat them. Aguro: I see. Then, I'm coming with you. Cyan: What? Will you really join us, Aguro? Aguro: What do you mean? Am I not worthy enough for you? Cyan: Don't be ridiculous! Of course you are. But, if you come with me, won't the army suffer? Aguro: I asked the army to battle the Sinistrals. No interest at all. I can't stay there any more. Cyan: All armies are the same. Aguro: Well, Cyan? Where are we off to first? Cyan: Grenoble. Someone is there who knows about Artea. Aguro: Grenoble is in the southwest. Let's get going! Old Man: You're new here. I've been living like this for 40 years. I'm a pro. Keep your hands off, understand? Cyan: Excuse me. Do you know someone called Artea? Old Man: Artea? Oh, you mean the elf who fought at the Battle of Doom Island! I've heard of him.... Cyan: You know him? Please tell me more. Old Man: You don't understand how the game is played. When you ask for something, you have to....you know.... Cyan: I have a little money, if that's what you mean. But.... Old Man: Not money. What I want is the "Fairy Kiss" treasure at the 2nd level of the Old Cave. Only a woman can reach the "Fairy Kiss". There's no way I can get it. Man: Enter the elevator and lower the switch. You'll go to the 2nd level. - Only women may enter. - Lufia: Wait here. I'll go and get it. Cyan: Will you be alright by yourself? Lufia: Of course. Trust me. Cyan: We'll be right here if something happens. Cyan: Are you alright, Lufia? Lufia: I'm fine. Let's return to Grenoble. Old Man: Wow! This is it! This is what I've looked for these 40 years! Cyan: So, what do you say? Old Man: Ok, Ok. Artea, right? See the man in the tower northwest of town. Cyan: Northwest Tower. Got it! Old Man: He's a strange one. Won't meet anybody unless they show him this letter from me. He was Artea's apprentice. So he must know something. Man: Who are you? Don't interfere with my practice! Cyan: Wait. I have a letter for you. Man: A letter? Show it to me. Oh! From my friend in Grenoble. He helped me alot when I was young. Cyan: Uh.... Man: Ah yes. You want to ask about Artea. Cyan: Do you know him? Man: I do. But, I can't tell you anything. Cyan: Why not? Man: You may be someone important. But, I can't tell you where Artea lives. Cyan: Well, then. How can I make you tell me? Man: We shall battle each other. One-on-one. For real. Are you truly brave enough to accept my challenge? Apprentice: You are a good person. I can tell by your energy. Cyan: You'll tell me? Apprentice: Artea is in Elfrea now. Cyan: Elfrea? Apprentice: The village of elves. Humans may not enter. You will not find him without an elf helper. Cyan: So where's Elfrea? Apprentice: Go south and cross the desert. You'll find a small island surrounded by three islands. That's Elfrea. Listen Elfrea is far away. You'll have to travel through three towns to get there. Cyan: I understand. Thanks for all your help. Apprentice: Take this. It'll make you faster and stronger. Apprentice: You must have the power of the elves to find Elfrea! Don't forget that! Boy: I promise I'll make you well, Reyna. Reyna: Thank you, Mark, but it's alright. No medicine has ever worked for me. Mark: You'll be fine. Our town has a ruby, the "Hope Ruby". It makes your wishes come true. I'll bring it here. Reyna: I know of it. But I thought it was a treasure of the Kingdom of Medan. Mark: I'm sure I can borrow it if I ask. Next time I come, I'll bring the "Hope Ruby". Reyna: Thank you, Mark. Mark: I'll go back to Medan. Reyna: I hope Mark doesn't do something stupid because of me. Lufia: Is Mark Reyna's boyfriend? Reyna: Yes, He lives in the eastern town of Medan. He came to see me even after I became ill. Lufia: He's so sweet. Reyna: I know. But I wonder if I'll ever see him again? Lufia: That won't happen. You have to get well. Reyna: Yes. You're right. Lufia: Oh, it's you. Didn't I see you at the items shop in Kirof? Mark: What? Oh! You're the lady who came to Reyna's house. Lufia: What's the matter? You look troubled. Mark: I asked the King to lend me the ruby, but he wouldn't even see me. I promised Reyna. What shall I do? Lufia: Cyan. I'm going to go make a wish. Lufia: Ask me what I wished for. Cyan: What did you wish for? Lufia: Hee, hee! I won't tell. Man: Princess. You shouldn't be in a place like this! Princess: You've been collecting all the coins thrown into the fountain again, haven't you? Man: Well? That's my job. Princess: It's sad. We call it the "Hope Ruby", but I know it's just made of glass. Man: But the coins thrown into the spring are what our country needs. Princess: I know. That's why it's sad. We can't defend the ruby forever. Our country must wake up someday. Man: Princess.... Princess: I wish the ruby was broken! Man: You can't enter here. Please leave. King: I haven't told anyone else, but there's a rumor that the Sinistral Amon has been revived. I hope it's just a rumor! Lufia: Wasn't that Mark? Cyan: What's happened? Man: The "Hope Ruby" was stolen! It's the most important thing in Medan! Lufia: No. It's not possible. Cyan: It can't be. Mark: Reyna has dissappeared! Lufia: What? Reyna? But she's sick! Mark: I thought Reyna couldn't even stand! Please help me find Reyna! Lufia: Of course. You stay here, Mark. It's dangerous from here on out. Mark: No! I'm going. I promised Reyna that I'd show it to her! Lufia: I knew it! You're the one who stole the ruby! Mark: I know it was wrong. I just wanted to make Reyna well, that's all. Lufia: But Mark, that ruby doesn't have any power...... Cyan: It's alright, Mark. Let's go together. It's very dangerous. Are you ready for that? Mark: Of course! Boy: I saw Reyna walking toward the Ghost Cave. She looked very strange. Guard: Reyna entered the cave. I tried to stop her, but she looked strange and didn't seem to hear me. Mark: Reyna! Reyna: ............ Mark: Reyna! It's me. Mark! Hang on! We're coming! Reyna: Aaah!! Monster: Ha, ha, ha! At last! The ruby will be mine! Aguro: Miserable phantom! How dare you kidnap the weak and helpless! Phantom: Do you know how long I've waited for her? Miserable humans! I won't let you stop me! Reyna: Oh......ahhh. Mark: Reyna! Reyna: Mark? Why the face? Where are we? Mark: Reyna! Are you alright? Reyna: I feel a bit light, but I'm fine. Lufia: The ghost kidnapped Reyna. Now I know why the medicine didn't work. Reyna: Mark. Is that....the...."Hope Huby"? Oh, no! It's broken! Mark: What?! It broke during our battle! Well, we don't need it now, anyway. Reyna: It's very valuable, isn't it? What should we do? Mark: Tell the truth and apologize. They might forgice us. Lufia: Apologize to the princess, Mark. She'll understand, won't she Cyan? Cyan: Of course she will. Right, Aguro? Aguro: Maybe she'll reward you instead! Ha, ha, ha! Mark: ......? Cyan: Let's return to Kirof. Lufia: Mark. Reyna. Take care of yourselves. Reyna: Are you leaving us already? Lufia: Yes. We have to find a village called Elfrea. Mark: I thought you couldn't get to Elfrea without an elf in your party! Lufia: Do you know anything about this, Mark? Mark: I don't know where Elfrea is, but there are elves in Belgen. Lufia: Belgin? Mark: Belgin is a village southeast of Medan. My father went there. He said an elf woman lives there. It was the first time my father ever saw an elf. He was so excited. He told me the story later. Reyna: I'll never forget you. Thank you! Princess: I have something very important to tell everyone today. The "Hope Ruby" that was stolen the other day is made of glass. Innkeeper: Great! So the real one is hidden somewhere, right? Princess: The glass ruby was the only one in Medan. Innkeeper: What? Store Owner: Are you saying there was no "Hope Ruby" in the first place? Store Owner 2: That can't be true! Man: My wish came true once, you know. Store Owner 3: But, why would anyone make a fake ruby? Princess: Medan was rich in gemstone mines. But they ran out years ago. When the gemstones ran out, the people of Medan survived through tourism. And that's why we had the "Hope Ruby". But this is fraus! It's wrong to attract tourists to see a fake ruby. I really want to make Medan a rich country. To do that, everyone must pitch in. Innkeeper: ........ Store Owner: ........ Princess: We're sorry for fooling everyone. Please find a way to forgive my father and I for this. Innkeeper: Princess! Princess! Please don't bow to us! Store Owner 3: We, too, completely depended on the ruby. We failed you. Man: We were wrong, too. Princess: Oh! I.... Innkeeper: It's alright. This country will survive without the ruby. Man 2: If we really try, we can make a country equal to Lorbenia! Store Owner 3: I think you're right. Let's do the best we can! Lufia: Medan will survive, I think. Cyan: Thanks to Mark, perhaps. Aguro: Yes. That boy did it. Guard: What? Who are you? Man: What is it? Are the mosters coming? Guard: No. Humans! Lufia: Hey! Some way to treat travellers! Is that the way of this village? Guard: No! No! Of course not! Man: The monsters attacked us recently. People are a bit tense, you see. Guard: Forgive us. Please come in. Woman: Jerin was my childhood friend. I was supposed to be kidnapped this time. But Jerin offered herself in my place. I was wrong. I just wanted to see her again and apologize. I feel so helpless. I can't rescue Jerin. Won't you help her? Woman: Thank you! I shouldn't say this, but there's a key to the dais in the cave southwest of here. My brother guards the key. Tell him what I've just told you. I'm sure he'll let you have it. Man: My younger sister sent you, didn't she? Very well. Here's the key. I'll take responsibility. Go and rescue Jerin! Lufia: Cyan. Look! Isn't that Jerin? She's still a child! Aguro: Not really. Look at her carefully. Lufia: ....? Aguro: She's half elf! The blood of elves and humans mixed. I've heard of this, but never seen it, until now. Cyan: If she's half elf, you can't tell her age by looking, can you? Lufia: Her age doesn't matter now. What should we do, Cyan? Cyan: Well, we can't leave things like this. Lufia: Let's get these two in front of the stairs. That's ho we can help her! Cyan: That's easy, but they'll just kidnap someone else. Aguro: We have to stop this kidnapping nonsense once and for all! Jerin: Aaaah! Lufia: Cyan! Jerin! Cyan: OH NO! Guard: The monster flew to the North Tower. Maybe Jerin is on the top floor! Monster: Amon will be revived! This daughter will be our key! No one can stop us now! Cyan: Did you say Amon? Lufia: Amon? The Sinistral of Terror? No! It's not possible! Cyan: You know of Amon? That's splendid! Now you shall help us as well! Jerin: I'm so happy somebody saved me! Lufia: Kidnapping! Hmph. I won't stand still for such nonsense! Cyan: In any case, no one was hurt. Can you stand up? Jerin: Yes. I'm fine. Cyan: I'll take you as far as the village. Cyan: Well, Jerin. We have to leave. It's time to say farewell. Jerin: What? Aguro: Enjoy the village's hospitality. LLufia: Take care now, Jerin. Jerin: Ex....excuse me. Please, if you don't mind: take me with you. Cyan: It's dangerous where we're going. We really can't take you with us. Jerin: I'll be in your way, won't I? Cyan: I didn't say that. We saved your life. I'd hate to see you lose it. Jerin: You're right. Life is precious, isn't it? Cyan: That's rught. Well, it's time to go. Jerin: Wait! Wait a second! Please take this. Just to show my appreciation. Jerin: Will....will I see you again someday? Cyan: I can't promise. But, yes, you will. Jerin: I know. We'll meet again...someday. I'll take care of myself, Cyan. And, you take care, too! - Guide station to the "Lost Forest". - Old Man: The "Lost Forest" is just ahead. But, you'll never get through without a guide. Cyan: Is there someone who can show us the way? Old Man: Well, yes. But, she's only a child. Do you still want to go? Old Man: Alright! You can come out now! Jerin: Hello, Cyan. Cyan: Jer...Jerin! Jerin: I knew you'd have to come this way if you were continuing your journey. Cyan: Hey, old man! This child won't do. Isn't there anyone else? Old Man: She's the only one. Lufia: Cyan, let's try it without her. We might be able to find the way through by ourselves! Jerin: Only elves know the way through the forest. Lufia: You're not an elf! Jerin: I'm half elf, so I know the way. But for you, it's not possible. Lufia: ........ Aguro: What do you say, Cyan? Cyan: What choice is there? We know no other elves. Jerin: So, you'll let me join your party? Cyan: It's so dangerous! Why do you want to come with us? Jerin: You saved my life. I want to help you, Cyan. I....... Cyan: I understand. Lead on, Miss Jerin. Jerin: Just Jerin, please. Cyan: Right. Let's go, Jerin. Jerin: Yay! Lufia: Cyan? Wait a moment! Aguro: Calm down, Lufia. She's just a child. Lufia: You can't tell with half elves. And besides, I am calm! Aguro: Alright...Alright. Lufia: Cyan! Are you really going to let her join our party? Cyan: There's no one else to guide us. We have to count on Jerin. Aguro: I agree. Lufia: I don't! Cyan: Why not? Lufia: Why? Just....well, just because. That's why! Cyan: That's not an answer. Come on. Let's go. Jerin: What's wrong with Lufia? Cyan: She's just jealous. It's always the same thing. Nothing to worry about. Lufia: Cyan!! Lufia: I'll go first, Cyan! Jerin: Is she always like this? Cyan: Ha, ha, ha.
