Golden Sun/Side Scripts/Vale

These pages compile almost all incidental NPC dialogue, both spoken and accessed with Mind Read, that exist separately from the "main cutscenes" in. This can be used as a reference to more easily look up all optional gossip at each settlement in the game without painstakingly talking to each NPC and casting the Mind Read Psynergy on them. Some technically optional dialogue the player is very likely to read is omitted. All text in italics is conveyed through Mind Read.

Vale (prologue)
Orange-shirted man who walks out of Isaac's neighboring building Huh? Isaac? Did you come to get me? [Yes] Oh... Sorry to shove you like that. [No] This isn't the time for games! Foolish boy! Well...we'd better get to the plaza before the Boulder hits.

Garet (when attempting to head north) We shouldn't go north... that'll take us toward Mt. Aleph. The plaza is over that way. We need to head south.

Garet (if he is with you when a rock rolls to block your way south) We can't get around this rock! We'll have to find another way.

Inspect any boulder It's a huge rock that Isaac's strength can't even budge.

Man lying near fence (if convinced he is fatally injured) This is it for me. Save yourselves...

Kyle at pier Oh, Isaac... You two don't have enough Psynergy to save Felix. Go find help.

Felix's father at pier Hang on, Felix! Help is on the way!

Jenna's mother at pier Don't let go, Felix!

Girl just outside shop building Jenna went off that way!

Old man walking around at plaza Huh? Are you...asking me if I can use Psynergy, Isaac? [Yes] If I were ten years younger, I'd have plenty to offer, but I'm too old...  [No] I thought not... You have to be young and strong to use Psynergy...

Old woman at plaza You expect an old woman like me to use Psynergy? Don't ask the impossible!

Blonde lady at plaza Oh! Little Felix has fallen into the river? That must be why Jenna looked so upset.

Boy near pebble at plaza I have some Psynergy left. See? Isn't that impressive!?

The Mayor of Vale We're in a race against time! You must hurry!

Young man lying on the ground next to the inn Ohhh... I'm exhausted. I used up all my Psynergy deflecting falling rocks...

Dora No... It can't be. Kyle... It must be a dream...

Jenna Mom, Dad... Felix... Please... Don't leave me all alone...

Garet Isaac... The Boulder... We need to get help, or everyone will drown...

Muscle-man Oh, ohhh... I... I'll go! It's no use. I can't move... Isaac, please get help!

Inspect the door of the destroyed house The door won't open. The force of the impact must have knocked it off its hinges.

Vale (present day)
Southeast muscle-man Hey, Isaac, have I shown you my new ability? [Yes] It takes hard work to reach this level of mastery, Isaac. [No] Really? Well, here's a little sample for you! [Following either option] Behold, the power of Psynergy! Hahh! Impressive, isn't it?

Gray man near Psynergy Stone formation Isaac! Have you remembered to meditate on Mt. Aleph daily? [Yes] That's very good of you! Meditating helps keep the peace in the village. If everyone were like you, things would have gone better three years ago! [No] For shame, Isaac! Mt. Aleph keeps watch over Vale. Meditate each and every day to help keep us safe.

Southwest young man with blonde lady Well, if it isn't Isaac. It's just another quiet day in Vale.

Southwest blonde lady with young man Kraden had visitors when I dropped by his place this morning. I wonder what became of them...

Old man outside inn The Valeans are a chosen people. Our powers of Psynergy are proof of that.

Woman outside inn You had a very difficult time three years ago, didn't you? [Yes] You lost your father... Jenna lost her whole family... It was awful. At least Jenna's grandparents have been able to care for her...  [No] You're a strong lad, Isaac, so you were able to deal with it all...   But I just couldn't bear seeing Jenna like that.

Old woman next to blacksmith shop Long ago, my grandfather was a powerful Adept... I'm so proud of him.

Boy walking near Psynergy stone formation Did the travelers that stopped by today go to meet the mayor? [Yes] I told them where Kraden lives, and they didn't even thank me. But I suppose they must have some manners...  [No] It's very polite to visit the mayor when coming to a new town. It's just shameful not to do that.

Girl just outside shop building With Psynergy, the more you practice, the more you learn.

Muscle-man above inn If your Psynergy runs low, just walk around. You'll recover it slowly.

Young man in inn One of the men from that group staying here wore a mask over his face. I guess he was trying to cover up some scars or something...

Blonde lady in inn Two of those three guests staying with us have gone out.

Female innkeeper Those three travelers staying here may not be thieves, but there's something strange about them.

Inspect the bookcase in the inn Isaac searched the bookcase... There's a book entitled "Etiquette for Travelers." "It is rude not to introduce yourself to the town's mayor."

Masked man in second floor of the inn Hey... Boy... Do you have business with me? [Yes] That's too bad, because I have no business with you. Be off! [No] Then I suggest you stop wasting my time.

Weapon shopkeeper Good weapons aren't just sharp. They also draw out the strength of the user. ...So said my father. Do you know what he meant, Isaac? I do...

Armor shopkeeper Good armor isn't just sturdy. It also draws out the strength of the user. ...That's what they say, but I don't know what it means...

Item shopkeeper A wise man knows to flee from battle when he's injured.

Young blacksmith My father also died in that storm three years ago. I'm going to hone my skills... That way, I'll be ready for anything.

Young blacksmith's mother My son is still young, so I don't make him work too long. But he takes after his father, so I'm sure he'll grow to be a fine man.

Muscle-man living in the narrow house above the plaza I hear old man Kraden's got some visitors. Let's go use our Psynergy to scare 'em! [Yes] You're more of a prankster than I thought, Isaac. I like that. [No] What? You're too serious, Isaac...  Only someone who has Psynergy would figure it out...

Inspect the bookcase in said narrow house Isaac searched the bookcase... There's a book entitled "The Psynergy Stone." "Psynergy is replenished by touching a Psynergy Stone..."

Inspect the bookcase in the larger house left of the narrow house Isaac searched the bookcase... There is a book entitled "The Mighty Power of Nature." "The power beyond human understanding can be seen in volcanic eruptions and great floods..."

Blonde lady living in the large house above the plaza Few people outside of Vale possess the power of Psynergy. That's why we need permission to leave the village... ...To protect the secret of Psynergy.

Inspect the bookcase in said larger house Isaac searched the bookcase... There is a book entitled "The Laws of Vale," which describes Vale's customs. "Get permission to leave the village. Never show Psynergy to outsiders..."

Muscle-man looking upon the river Isaac, watch out! Don't get too close to the river!

Young man living in a house east of the river Do you ever dream of seeing the world outside the village? Someday, I'm definitely gonna leave Vale!

Inspect the bookcase in said house east of the river Isaac searched the bookcase... There are books entitled "Journey to the Northern Continent of Angara" and "All About the Southern Continent of Gondowan." Isaac learned that Mt. Aleph is on the western edge of Angara.

Jenna's grandfather My granddaughter, Jenna, is finally happy again... I have you and Garet to thank for that, Isaac.

Jenna's grandmother I hope you two won't be taking Jenna outside the village with you.

Jenna's aunt Jenna is the spitting image of her mother, whom we lost that day... I just want Jenna to be happy.

Inspect the bookcase in the house of Jenna's family Isaac searched the bookcase... There's a notebook belonging to Jenna's aunt... It contains sketches Jenna's aunt and mother drew as children.

Young man near Jenna's destroyed house This place looks just like it did three years ago... after the storm...

Gray man near waterfall Vale must remain hidden. Psynergy's secrets mustn't fall into the wrong hands. It's one of the laws of our village, handed down from long ago.

Old woman on bridge Mt. Aleph looks beautiful today. It's so peaceful.

Upon approaching the puppies Rrruff! Rrrruff! Woof! Woof! [Game message] There are some puppies playing over there. We should let them be.

Dora (before leaving the screen) I told that clumsy Garet it would be all right... But what am I going to do about this hole?

Dora (after returning to the screen) It looks like it won't rain for some time... so I guess I'll just have you fix it later, Isaac.

Inspect the bookcase in the first floor of Isaac's house Isaac searched the bookcase... There's a book entitled "Legend of Mt. Aleph." It says the mountain's name refers to the origin of all things...

Inspect the bookcase in the second floor of Isaac's house Isaac searched the bookcase... There's a book entitled "Being an Adept." "Hone your Psynergy. Do not use it for evil..."

Gray man who is Isaac's neighbor So Kraden came to Vale to study Mt. Aleph, right? [Yes] He said he was studying Mt. Aleph and Alchemy and the like...  Mt. Aleph... Alchemy... Are they related somehow? [No] But I thought... Well, whatever. If he furthers the wisdom of the sages, it will be quite a feat.

Woman who is Isaac's neighbor If there are visitors in town, we can't use our Psynergy. The ancient laws say the secret of Psynergy can never be revealed.

Garet's mother You and Garet are older now, and you can't waste your time fooling around.

Garet's father Garet has grown quite strong in the past three years. Please watch over him.

Garet's grandmother I hear Kraden has guests again. He's pretty popular for a sage.

The Mayor of Vale At the very least, visitors should introduce themselves to the mayor. There seems to be an appalling group in town that won't even do that... What's the world coming to?

Inspect the bookcase in Garet's house Isaac searched the bookcase... There's a book entitled "Making a Great Village."

Garet's brother (Aaron) You're in trouble now, Garet... Your sister's really mad!

Garet's sister (Kay) (first interaction) Garet, you make me so mad sometimes! Your training stone crushed my flowers! You're in for it tonight... Just wait and see!

Garet's sister (Kay) (subsequent interactions) I'll get you for my flowers! Just see what happens...tonight!

Woman near upper bridge Vale stays pristine because of Mt. Aleph's purity. Taint that purity, and you risk terrible retribution.

Girl near upper bridge I'm jealous of you, Garet, because your grandpa's the mayor. Do you feel the same, Isaac? [Yes] Yeah... When travelers come, you get to hear all about the outside world. [No] Hmph... I can't believe you're not jealous, Isaac. I sure wish I could hear the stories of travelers.

Blonde lady along the road to Kraden's cottage (first interaction) Do you need to go past here? [Yes] You must be going to Kraden's cottage...  [No] You mustn't go beyond Kraden's cottage. There are monsters everywhere out there.

Blonde lady along the road to Kraden's cottage (subsequent interactions) You mustn't go beyond Kraden's cottage. There are monsters everywhere out there.

Great Healer at sanctum Wielders of Psynergy are called Adepts. Adepts are messengers of good... Never forget that.

Left Healer at sanctum Our Psynergy was given to us by the sacred power of Mt. Aleph. Psynergy is what grants the wishes of the chosen people.

Right Healer at sanctum Psynergy is a power that should only be used for good... Never for evil!

Patrolling Healer Mt. Aleph is a sacred peak. It is forbidden to climb it!

Saturos Go, children. You mustn't keep Kraden waiting.

Menardi You'd better leave, before we change our minds.

Boy near Kraden's cottage Do you hear those awful growls coming from the other side of this fence? [Yes] You do, don't you? I... I'm scared...  [No] Really? You mean I'm the only one that hears them?

Inspect Kraden's southeast bookcase Isaac searched the bookcase... There's a book entitled "Encyclopedia of Alchemy." "All things are composed of four elements: earth, water, fire, and wind..."

Inspect Kraden's northeast bookcase Isaac searched the bookcase... There's a book entitled "The Fountain of Tolbi." "The fountain of Tolbi will test your luck..."

Inspect Kraden's north-central bookcase Isaac searched the bookcase... There's a book entitled "In Search of the Ancient Lemurians."

Inspect Kraden's northwest bookcase Isaac searched the bookcase... There's a notebook called "Study of Alchemy." "To understand Alchemy, one must understand the Elemental Powers..." That's where the script ends...

Sol Sanctum
Kraden (when attempting to leave sun chamber) That way leads out of the sanctum. It should be in these rooms.

Kraden (after entering moon chamber) Let me know what you find.

Kraden (in Elemental Star Chamber) Now, put the Elemental Stars in those bags and bring them here.

Jenna (in Elemental Star Chamber) Be careful, both of you.

Kraden (when attempting to leave Elemental Star Chamber) There aren't any Elemental Stars out there!

Saturos If you want to save them, you'll bring us the final Elemental Star.

Menardi What are you doing? Bring us the final gem!

Alex There is only one left. You're almost done.

Felix ...

Kraden I am sorry, everyone... I am responsible for all of this.

Jenna My brother is alive... but...why didn't he tell me sooner?

Vale (in sanctum, if Isaac refuses the quest)
Garet It is a terrible burden, to be responsible for the fate of the world.

Dora Mother would never doubt your courage just because you declined.

Mayor of Vale I don't blame you... I couldn't do it if I were in your shoes.

Lower-left Healer Was it right to refuse when the world is in such jeopardy?

Upper-right Healer It's clear that the Great Healer really wants you to say yes.

Great Healer Are you sure? [Yes] [Conversation ends] [No] Would you like to think it over? [Yes] Isaac, will you take the fate of the world in your hands? [Yes] [Main cutscene resumes] [No] [Conversation ends] [No] [Conversation ends]

Great Healer (if Isaac approaches the exit of the sanctum) Once you step outside the village, you cannot take back your decision. Think about that before you leave the Sanctum, Isaac.

Narration (if Isaac steps out of the sanctum) And so the world began drifting toward its fated destruction...

Vale (post-Sol Sanctum)
Southeast muscle-man Aren't you worried about crossing the land with just [the two/three/four] of you? [Yes] Don't wander too deep into unknown lands. It's not brave to fight against hopeless odds. [No] There is a difference between being courageous and being reckless. True courage requires caution. Sometimes, it may seem cowardly. ''I'm worried about you, Isaac. You guys are like brothers to me.'' ''Promise me you won't do anything foolish. And come back alive!''

Gray man near Psynergy Stone formation If you follow the road east and then head north, you'll hit the Goma Range. Once winter comes, the lands beyond the Goma Range get very cold. I'm glad I don't have to go there at this time of year.

Southwest young man with blonde lady Hey, you're Isaac, right? The tremors on Mt. Aleph have settled down a bit. Thank goodness. ''The eruptions subsided, but it may erupt again. I'm still worried.''

Southwest blonde lady with young man If you don't know where to go, why don't you try Vault? If you head east a little and then head south, you should find it. ''Vault? Isn't that the town with the underground path?''

Old man outside inn You saw the Wise One? The same Wise One from the healers' tales? [Yes] That is a blessing... A blessing, indeed. [No] It was the Wise One who saved the town when Mt. Aleph erupted. I believed with all my heart that the Wise One really existed... I'm so grateful that we finally have some proof!

Woman outside inn The air is sparkling because of the eruption of Mt. Aleph. Do you think the falling powder is crushed Psynergy Stones? If these sparkles truly are all that remain of the Psynergy Stones... then Mt. Aleph must indeed be in trouble. I've heard the Psynergy Stones are the source of all of Mt. Aleph's power.

Old woman next to blacksmith shop Long ago, Lunpa, the righteous thief, founded a town in the north. Even the righteous thieves seem to have changed over the generations. Nowadays, the thieves of Lunpa are said to even attack travelers.

Boy walking near Psynergy stone formation Isaac, your mother, Dora, has been crying ever since you two left. No matter how hard she tries to hide her feelings, Isaac's mother must be lonely...

Girl just outside shop building If your Psynergy runs low, touch a Psynergy Stone to replenish it. Unfortunately, the eruption blasted all the Stones helter-skelter. You'll be very lucky if you find any Psynergy Stones in your travels.

Muscle-man above inn Replenish your Psynergy before entering a dungeon. Sharp warriors know to do that. I wouldn't worry if my Psynergy ran low in a dungeon, because I know that I can recover Psynergy by just walking around.

Young man in inn That masked man... He was Felix, right? [Yes] It's hard to believe, but...what if Jenna was involved in all this? [No] What? But didn't Jenna see his face? [Yes] If he is her brother, maybe we shouldn't trust Jenna too much. [No] What? But that's not what you told the elders. ''I wonder if Felix changed much. He was such a good boy...'' Do you suppose Jenna could change like that?

Blonde lady in inn We're a small hotel, and we get few guests... But we still keep this place clean, just in case! Felix and his gang must have left in a hurry. I found his wallet when I was cleaning the room...

Female innkeeper Those visitors caused the eruption and kidnapped Jenna. I knew there was something strange about them. Who could have known that masked man was Felix!? I guess he hid his face from us because he was ashamed.

Weapon shopkeeper Vale has felt so empty and quiet since you two left. Isaac, you're going on a difficult journey, so be sure to do your best.

Armor shopkeeper Sniff! I... I'm not sad at all... Go. Just go! If you face any hardship in your quest, do not hesitate to come home.

Item shopkeeper (First interaction) This is my farewell gift. [Game message] Isaac took the Herb. Isaac got an Herb.

Item shopkeeper (Subsequent interactions) You must save Jenna! You must, Isaac! So if that was Felix who kidnapped Jenna... Then why do you have to go save her?

Young blacksmith Come back as a strong warrior, Isaac. By then, I'll surely be a fine smith. I will think of Jenna as I do my work... We're all counting on you, Isaac!

Young blacksmith's mother I wanted Jenna to be my daughter-in-law... Now she's gone. This is terrible... Now that Jenna is gone, we need another girl to replace her.

Muscle-man living in the narrow house above the plaza I had no idea that such a secret hid within Sol Sanctum. If only we'd known, we could have stopped this whole thing. I wish I were the one who solved the mystery of Sol Sanctum.

Blonde lady living in the large house above the plaza Once you leave town, take care not to use Psynergy in front of others. Vale's laws state that you cannot use Psynergy in front of outsiders. But you know that, don't you, Isaac?

Muscle-man looking upon the river I don't blame Felix. If only we'd been able to save him on that fateful day. ''Felix was a good person. I still believe in him.''

Young man living in the house east of the river I'm so jealous of you! Being able to leave town... Tch! If only I'd gone to Sol Sanctum with Isaac and the others... It should have been me going on this quest.

Jenna's grandfather I heard that Jenna's brother Felix is alive... But why is he caught up with that bunch that raided Sol Sanctum? Felix inherited his father's skill with Psynergy. Open your eyes, Felix, and use that Psynergy for good, not evil.

Jenna's grandmother Please return my precious granddaughter, Jenna, to me. I will be waiting. Jenna, anytime you face danger, just use your Psynergy to overcome it. The fire Psynergy you inherited from your mother will help you.

Jenna's aunt After Jenna was taken, Grandmother grew sick with despair... Why would Felix take his sister, Jenna, away?

Young man near Jenna's destroyed house Sigh... No longer will I see Jenna standing there looking lonely. ''I'm glad that Felix is alive. I was so worried about Jenna.''

Gray man near waterfall The mayor was too kind to those strangers... None of this would have happened if he'd kicked those travelers out. The people of Vale will never trust travelers again. Of course, I never trusted them in the first place.

Old woman on bridge Vale is saved thanks to the Wise One! Vale was saved because people like this old woman worked hard... to protect those who couldn't protect themselves.

Dora's voice from behind Isaac's locked front door Who are you? You can't be... You're not Isaac, are you? [Yes] Isaac... That's a lie! He promised not to return until he fulfills his mission. My Isaac would keep his promise. ...Go away. [No] I don't know who you are. I'm sorry, but I don't want to see anyone today.

Gray man who is Isaac's neighbor It's because Kraden was studying Alchemy... That's why the mountain erupted, isn't it? We almost lost the town over something as silly as the study of Alchemy.

Woman who is Isaac's neighbor They say the people who caused this whole mess had strange powers. ...Is that true? [Yes] If they were using Psynergy...  That means there are towns other than Vale with Psynergy. [No] If that's the case, then I don't need to worry. It means Psynergy really is a special power, found only in Vale... I'd like to believe that only the people of Vale can use Psynergy.

Garet's mother As mothers, Dora and I will always worry about you. It doesn't matter how old you get—you will always be our babies. I am concerned for Garet, but he is my son, so I am sure he will ''be all right. I can't wait until he returns to Vale as a strong man.''

Garet's father I'm proud of you, Garet. My own son...on such an important quest! Once Garet leaves, I won't be able to rest until he returns. It's a good thing we have two children.

Garet's grandmother Receiving a quest directly from the Wise One must be quite an honor. The Wise One chose Garet himself, and I am so proud of my boy.

The Mayor of Vale Isaac, please take care of my grandson, Garet. It's hard letting my precious Garet go... But no! I have to be strong for everyone!

Garet's brother (Aaron) Please take care of my brother, Isaac. My brother's strength is his best asset, so he'll be a big help to you!

Garet's sister (Kay) You guys are so lucky, Garet. I wish I could go with you. Gee, I wish I could see new lands, too.

Woman near upper bridge Ever since the tremors started, Mt. Aleph has been impossible to climb. I can't believe anyone would climb the mountain after such an eruption!

Girl near upper bridge The ground still shakes sometimes, but everyone says the danger is gone. I just don't feel safe, knowing Mt. Aleph could still erupt!

Blonde lady along the road to Kraden's cottage I guess Kraden still hasn't come back. Poor Kraden was taken to some faraway place. I liked that old coot...

Great Healer at sanctum My control over Psynergy has grown since yesterday evening... It must be because I met the Wise One. The power of my Psynergy has dramatically increased, but I don't ''know why. I'd really like to try this Psynergy out on something.''

Left Healer at sanctum The power of Mt. Aleph stems from the Psynergy Stones. If the eruption cast the Psynergy Stones across the land... then perhaps new Adepts will... The Angaran continent will certainly see trouble from these Psynergy Stones... It makes leaving Vale all the more dangerous.

Right Healer at sanctum Do you feel any change in your Psynergy? [Yes] Oh, I wish the Wise One would come to me and give me power. [No] The Great Healer said my Psynergy powers grew when I met the Wise One. ''My Psynergy...hasn't changed at all. It's not fair.''

Healer standing guard at Sol Sanctum It is very dangerous to go beyond here when Mt. Aleph is active! Leave immediately! I am all alone in this dangerous place. How can the Great Healer treat me like this...?

Boy near Kraden's cottage Once I'm as old as you, Isaac, I'm going to climb that fence... and journey to the lands beyond! Why is it that no one else is curious about what lies beyond this fence?

Vale (later visit)
Young man walking near entrance Hey, if it isn't Isaac! You came back home, huh? ''You surprised us, Isaac! You're back sooner than anyone expected!''

Southeast muscle-man The eruption created a terrible mess on the other side of Mt. Aleph. A river of lava burnt everything on the other side of Mt. Aleph.

Gray man near Psynergy Stone formation It looks like you made some friends in your travels, Isaac. I'm glad to see that. Isaac's new friends look interesting. I wonder if they're Adepts, like us?

Blonde lady walking southwest Oh, Isaac! You came back sooner than I thought! ''Isaac has grown so much so quickly. He looks splendid...''

Old man outside inn Did you see anything interesting on your trip, Isaac? [Yes] Oh, really? That must have been exciting! Maybe I can join you on your next journey? [Yes] Ha ha, really? I was just kidding. You don't need to be so polite. [No] Yeah... I knew you would say no...  [No] You didn't, hmm? I can see in your eyes that you're not being honest. I sense that Mt. Aleph is not the only place to see strange events. Crossing the continent must indeed be difficult.

Woman outside inn The river in town grew so hot after Mt. Aleph erupted. Everyone got excited, thinking there were hot springs on the mountain, but then the river cooled down again. Eruptions must have great power if they can heat a river!

Old woman next to blacksmith shop Oh, my! Isaac! How have you been! ''Oh, my! When did you return to Vale, Isaac?''

Boy walking near Psynergy stone formation Welcome back, Isaac! It's good to have you home! I wonder if we can play with Isaac and his pals again, like we used to.

Girl just outside shop building I see you made many friends on your journey. I wish I could be like you, Isaac. I want to go on a journey and make new friends, too!

Muscle-man above inn The eruption caused a crack to open on Mt. Aleph's northwest side. The crack on Mt. Aleph's northwest side is widening. At this rate, the whole continent will split in half!

Young man in inn You traveled around the eastern edge of the continent? You must be exhausted! ''I wonder if Isaac will continue his journey. It must be quite difficult.''

Blonde lady in inn Aren't you glad to see the village hasn't changed? Vale will never change, so you can come home whenever you like.

Female innkeeper Oh, it's you, Isaac. You came back, huh? You've come all the way home just to stay here? Are you sure? [Yes] Oh, I see... You don't want to get used to staying at home...  In that case, you're more than welcome...   [No] That's better! You've come all the way back. Now, go on home. I wonder if Isaac came here because Dora wouldn't let him stay... Other than the mayor, no one else knows about Dora's illness...

Gray man near innkeeper Well if it isn't Isaac! You've grown so much, I almost didn't recognize you! Does Isaac know that Dora was struck with an illness?

Weapon shopkeeper Oh, it's you, Isaac. You came back? [Yes] Vale won't be very quiet anymore...  But I'm glad to see you. Your mother, Dora, will be, too. [No] Oh, you're not back for good? That's too bad. We've seen many monsters lately, and it's become quite dangerous outside ''the village. That's why weapons are selling well.'' If only the blacksmiths could make better weapons...

Armor shopkeeper I heard you were back. I guess the rumor was true. Are you going to tell us all the great tales from your journey? I wish I could learn the secret to making good weapons...

Item shopkeeper Isaac! When did you come back? After the way you left, I thought I might never see you again. I'm very happy to see you. ''What happened to Jenna? Haven't you found her yet?''

Young blacksmith Ow! It's gonna be years before I'm a grown-up! But Isaac's back already! Oh... You are just visiting... You got me surprised. I promised I'd become a great blacksmith before Isaac comes back again. It's a man's promise, and I have to keep it.

Young blacksmith's mother Welcome home, Isaac! Oh... ... What happened? Why are you walking around with some girl who's not Jenna? That shy girl with Isaac sure looks like a nice girl.

Muscle-man living in the narrow house above the plaza The Great Healers are too afraid to go to Sol Sanctum anymore. They have nothing to fear. Their Psynergy should protect them. ''The healers are supposed to guard Sol Sanctum. How can they not go in?''

Blonde lady living in the large house above the plaza The northwest face of Mt. Aleph was all scorched by a river of lava. They say the lava looked like the bowels of the earth had spilt forth.

Old man pacing outside storage shed Hey! Where'd that Psynergy Stone go? It's gone! All that's left is a big hole in my roof. But the memory of the eruption won't go away, even once I've fixed it. The impact from the eruption was too much for the people of Vale.

Muscle-man looking upon the river I still remember when Felix and I used to play here...*Sniff* ''Felix must be protecting Jenna... I'm sure of it.''

Young man living in the house east of the river The mountain is apparently still casting Psynergy Stones about. People who have been beyond the gate say they've seen them beside the roadside. If the Psynergy Stones in the mountain continue to be scattered... Mt. Aleph won't have any Psynergy Stones left someday.

Jenna's grandfather Oh, so you still haven't rescued Jenna... Will I ever see Jenna and Felix again before I die?

Jenna's grandmother I get over colds quickly. But it sure is taking Dora a long time to recover from hers. Dora says it's just a cold, but she's been like this ever since... ''Isaac left... It's taking her so long to recover...''

Jenna's aunt A cold is going around. I should be careful. I know that there are always cold outbreaks when winter comes... But still...

Young man near Jenna's destroyed house Oh, it's Isaac, isn't it? Is Jenna back yet? Promise me, Isaac... Promise me you'll bring Jenna with you next time. You didn't bring Jenna with you?

Gray man near waterfall I wonder why we haven't seen any travelers since the eruption... Do you know why, Isaac? [Yes] Oh, the bridge to the south was ruined? That explains it. [No] You don't know either? It's not like we banned visitors after the eruption. Having no travelers is no fun at all...

Old woman on bridge Mt. Aleph's eruption was so powerful, it caused the continent to crack! The earthquakes aren't caused by eruptions. I think they're from the continent splitting into two.

Dora Don't you worry about me. Just do your best to complete your quest. Cough cough... I'm sorry I seemed so harsh, Isaac... ''I'm so happy to see you. I'll be waiting for you to come home for good...''

Gray man who is Isaac's neighbor What was that "Alchemy" that Kraden was always researching? I feel it was something that was better left alone... Even if the eruption had no relation to Alchemy... I still don't want Kraden to come back to the village.

Woman who is Isaac's neighbor Earthquakes still strike once in a while... It gives me the chills every time... Every time the ground shakes, I worry there will be another eruption.

Garet's mother I hope you didn't get sick during your travels... Garet always eats too much... He always makes his mother worry. Garet seems to have grown up a bit on this difficult journey.

Garet's father Did you hear us talking about Dora just now? [Yes] Dora told us not to worry...that it's just a fever. Don't worry too much, Isaac. [No] You didn't hear? But you look concerned. We'll be looking after your mother, so don't worry. It wasn't too smart to talk about Dora without checking for Isaac. I wish we could tell him the truth.

Garet's grandmother That Ivan seems to be a smart boy... I wish you could be more like Ivan, Garet. ''His new friends are all so polite. I'm very happy to see that.''

The Mayor of Vale Mia is such a nice girl. I wonder who Garet likes more, Mia or Jenna... It must be nice to be young and gallivant about with lovely girls!

Garet's brother (Aaron) I will do my best to show everyone that I am strong enough to protect our family and Vale. ''I could go with you if I were a little older... It's not fair...''

Garet's sister (Kay) I can tell just by looking at you that you've been through a lot. You look so much more mature now. ''You guys are working so hard, but I'm worried. Are you really all right?''

Woman near upper bridge Aghh! I felt another one! They've been going on for a while. I can't even sleep at night! ''Ahh... I can't stand these earthquakes! I wish they'd stop!!!''

Girl near upper bridge They say the danger is gone, even though the earthquakes continue...  ''The smoke from Mt. Aleph isn't thick at all. It looks okay now.''

Blonde lady near Kraden's cottage You must have so many memories of this cottage, don't you? [Yes] I thought so. You used to visit Kraden a lot, Isaac. [No] I understand. You don't have time to dwell on old memories... I wonder why I feel so lonely whenever I come here... I wasn't even that close to Kraden...

Great Healer at sanctum The path to Sol Sanctum is still closed. You'll have to wait until the volcanic activity subsides. It'll be difficult to reach Sol Sanctum until Mt. Aleph returns to normal.

Left Healer at sanctum Isaac, are your new friends Adepts by any chance? [Yes] So, there are others besides Valeans who have been granted Psynergy? [No] [Both Ivan and Mia say "......"] Your friend seems angered by your words, Isaac...  That means... they must be Adepts! I see a beautiful girl has joined Isaac on his journey. I wonder what Jenna will think when she sees this.

Right Healer at sanctum Why is it that different Adepts have different powers? Is it because they meditate more, like the Great Healer? ''It's not fair! I want to have strong Psynergy, but I hate working for it.''

Healer standing guard at Sol Sanctum It is very dangerous to go beyond here when Mt. Aleph is active! Leave immediately! I am all alone in this dangerous place. How can the Great Healer treat me like this...?

Boy near Kraden's cottage I can't stop wondering what lies beyond this fence. I have a feeling my adventures will begin once I pass this fence.
