Champa Camp and Champa

Champa Camp (msg_cmpa_camp)

Once, Champa was just a poor village. Now it's a poor country. Bigger does not mean richer. In the old days, Briggs used to bring food for the village. I guess we'll go hungry now... Since the eclipse, we've had to burn the houses to make light. Soon there won't be a village to save. Who knew that old scalawag Briggs could die? I just assumed he'd be salt-preserved forever... Obaba was Briggs's grandmother, and Briggs wasn't a young man. How old is she? The village is just over there, but instead of living in it, we have to sleep in tents. What did we do wrong? Somehow Obaba knew that something like this would happen, so she made us take our stuff out of the village. The village is burning up. Even if the eclipse gets over soon, we won't have anywhere to live. I guess Obaba is right... If burning the houses keeps the monsters at bay, that's what we have to do... Once Obaba goes, the ancient ways of the Ankohl civilization will go with her. Sad... When the Golden Sun made the land fertile again, we just didn't have any skilled farmers. We'd gotten so dependent on piracy for our living that we didn't even know another way of life... Briggs was practically the only one of us who knew anything about piracy. With him gone... I miss my house... As captain of the pirates, Briggs pretty much led the whole country. But he never wanted to be king... Obaba's been around for as long as I can remember... I can't imagine Champa without her. Why does my tent always seem to be filled with mosquitoes? And when can we go home? I miss Obaba's stories, but she never comes down here anymore. Maybe I'll sneak up to her... I hope we can build new houses when this is all over. I'm done camping for now. I know it's necessary, but it's hard to just watch the houses burn. And what happens when they're gone? If all of the Ankohl were as tough as Obaba, I can't imagine how they died out... Those who believe pirates evil would do well to see how my flock cares for each other in this crisis. It's only thanks to Obaba that we have survived. Her prophecy told us about the dangers of the dark. [Eoleo] Home...sweet home? [Young Man] Hey, it's Eoleo! When did you get home? [Young Woman] Eoleo! It really is you! [Man] Eoleo? I heard you were dead! [Woman] Welcome back. We could use a little cheer right now. [Young Man] Where's Briggs? [Young Woman] Didn't he come back with you? [Man] I thought he was heading out to rescue you! [Woman] That ship looks like his... [Eoleo] See... It's like this...

Champa Camp, inn tent (msg_cmpa_camp_ph)

What else can I do but open up the inn and let Matthew stay? Not for free, of course. Times are tough. [Eoleo] So that's what happened. [Young Man] Sounds rough... [Young Woman] An honorable pirate to the end... [Man] Seems like all these Warriors of Vale and their kids were a good influence on Briggs. He wasn't always so heroic. [Woman] So you're going to go and stop the eclipse now? Thank goodness! Be careful, though. [Man] Obaba is in the house on the cliff. She has refused to budge from the spot. [Man] I know you're anxious to get going, but take a short rest first. You'll feel better.

Champa Camp, interior (msg_cmpa_camp_ph2)

As a pirate nation, we always need weapons, so we keep the armory well stocked. Care to buy something? Notice how shiny the weapons are? I shined 'em myself! ...With Dad's help, anyway... These tents are kind of cramped, but my son managed to open a business in one, anyway. Sure, everyone needs weapons, but no one has any money to buy them. Why is the shop still open? Selling stuff the pirates claim as salvage or booty sure is profitable. I wonder if they've found any more treasure maps to other old gear... That sword the pirates pulled out of the ocean sure was rusty, but it polished up nice! I LOVE selling things we got for free. It's like getting money for nothing! These people obviously have money and a ship. Why are they shopping for their weapons in a tent? With Briggs gone, I guess I made the right choice, giving up raiding the Sanan Sea to open a shop. But I miss it. I wish I was half the smith that Obaba is. She once made a weapon that defeated the sea god Poseidon!

Champa (msg_cmpa_1)

The remains of some unfortunate soul. The remains of some unfortunate soul. The remains of some unfortunate soul. If we have to burn every house in our village to keep Obaba safe, so be it. I get why Obaba doesn't want to leave, but I sure do. All warriors, but they all seem to use different kinds of equipment. They're just being difficult... I wish I'd been buried at sea like Captain Briggs... That sounds neat. Spent my whole life at sea, and somehow managed to die on land... What were the odds? Never did get my proper land legs... If I'd been on a ship when that big wave hit, I would've been fine. What's with all the darkness? I only visit the material world for a little sunshine... I wonder how you haunt someone? That sounds like a sweet gig... Man, even death can't get "Lake Bycal Moonlight" out of my head! Seasoned warriors like you must know rare materials when you see them. If you find any, bring them to me. If the fires go out, Obaba won't last. We have to keep finding more fuel to keep her safe! [Eoleo] I got this one. [Eoleo] My Thermal Psynergy can create a solid updraft of warm air. [Eoleo] It doesn't work everywhere, but it's great in a spot like this! If the old lady would just come down and join the rest of us, she'd be easier to protect! [Eoleo] Great-grandma... [Obaba] That voice... Eoleo? [Obaba] Well, well... [Obaba] Here I thought you'd been captured by beastmen, and it turns out you were out making friends. [Obaba] Wait...you? [Kraden] Hello, Obaba. [System Message] Obaba looks closely at Kraden. [Kraden] I haven't seen you in 30 years... [Obaba] Yes! The old man! I remember you... [Obaba] Kradle...or something. But you look the same as you did then. How could that be? [Kraden] It's Kraden, actually... It's also a long story. [Eoleo] Before you guys get started, I got something I gotta say. Can I say my piece? [Obaba] I don't know. It sounds like I'm not going to like it. But I suppose I'd find out eventually, anyway. [Eoleo] During the battle in Morgal...Dad... [Obaba] Briggs put up a good fight? [Eoleo] Yeah. He sure did, Great-grandma. [Obaba] So he's gone ahead of me... It seems your Obaba is doomed to unhappiness... [Obaba] I suppose I'll be following him soon enough. I'll be sure to give him a good talking-to when I see him... [Obaba] Now, Kraden, you were exposed to the Golden Sun, and now you can't age. Does that sum it up? [Eoleo] Erm, well, yes... [Obaba] To live so long in bones already old... I don't envy your "gift." [Obaba] So who are the rest of you? [Obaba] Probably a ragtag group of scrappy heroes out to stop this nasty eclipse, eh? Good. [Obaba] As the old man can tell you, I have a knack with fire and the forge. [Obaba] If you find any interesting materials, bring them to me, and I'll make you gear you can't get anywhere else. [Eoleo] I'm going too, Great-grandma. See you around. [Obaba] I thought as much. Good luck. Your new gear is ready. Take it with you when you go. Ah, no! You're already carrying too much. Come back when you have more hands. OK, trying to run back to the village to get my things wasn't my best idea... Did this kind of thing happen everywhere, or just to pirates? If only I'd been able to reach that cave under the wharf. I'd've been safe there...

Apollo Ascent, top (msg_apl_road_skull)

[System Message] Some kind of aroma hangs heavy in the air... [Message] The path of light may not be trod without mourning those who passed into shadow. Observe the rites thusly: First, bring fire to the deceased's eyes, then cleanse the forehead with a drop of water. Next, blow a cool breeze across the nose, and finally, walk the path described by the scent of mourning incense.

Apollo Sanctum, road (msg_apl_t_1)

[Kraden] The light here is so strong, you'll need protection to survive it. [Kraden] Hmm... Himi's prophecy... We must clothe ourselves in shadow, or rather, in the Umbra Gear! [Kraden] Ah, of course! This is why the Umbra Gear is important. [Kraden] Time for Sveta to step into the limelight... er, so to speak. [Kraden] This will all depend on you. [Sveta] What am I to do? [Kraden] Well, this equipment is tailored for a Morgal beastman to wear. [Tyrell] Sounds like Sveta's the girl for the job, all right. But why is the gear just for beastmen? [Kraden] The Apollo Lens is the product of cooperation between the ancient Jenei and Morgal beastmen. [Karis] And the beastmen did the physical labor, so they were wearing the equipment. [Eoleo] So why is it the "Umbra Gear"? [Amiti] Because if we are to survive the light, we must wrap ourselves in the umbra—another word for shadow. [Kraden] Very good, Amiti. [Sveta] And so that is where I must step in? [Sveta] All right... Here I go... [Rief] Do we really know that the Umbra Gear alone will be enough to protect her? [Kraden] There's no way of knowing for sure. [Sveta] I have faith in our leader. Matthew, will you guide me? [Kraden] Ah, Matthew... Of course... [Tyrell] You don't think Matthew can do it, do you, Kraden?! [Kraden] Don't be absurd. Of course I do. [Kraden] Matthew, you've led us well to this point. Now guide Sveta through this last obstacle. [Sveta] Once we come out up there, I'll be in danger. Don't let me down...please. [System Message] While in the brighter spots, pay close attention to the Umbra Gear's endurance gauge. [System Message] The endurance gauge slowly increases while you are in bright spots. [System Message] If the gauge goes too high, the Umbra Gear will fail, and you will be swallowed up by the light. [System Message] When the gauge is high, hide in a shadow, such as by a pillar, and let the gauge get lower. [System Message] When you are in a bright spot, keep an eye on the level of the Umbra Gear's endurance gauge. Matthew and friends were swallowed up by the light... Um, Matthew, I don't have the Umbra Gear equipped yet. Would you help me?

Apollo Sanctum, fully set up (msg_apl_t_2c)

Matthew and friends were swallowed up by the light... [Arcanus] Ah, good. Have you finished with the preparations? [Matthew] #*@%! [Karis] How—? [Tyrell] What's he doing here?! [Rief] You! [Amiti] Here? [Sveta] Arcanus! [Eoleo] What kinda name is "Arcanus"? [Himi] This one has great power. [Arcanus] Tyrell, son of Garet... You seem displeased to see me. [Tyrell] I'm only displeased to see you still breathing! [Arcanus] Ah, the impulsiveness, the overconfidence... You really are your father's son. [Tyrell] Y-you know my dad? [Arcanus] Obviously. [Karis] Who are you? Why do you know so much about us? [Kraden] Hello, Alex. [Rief] Alex?! The Mercury Clan's traitor? My mother's betrayer? THAT Alex?! [Arcanus] What makes you think I am this "Alex"? [Kraden] We traveled together for some time, Alex. I haven't forgotten. [Alex] You flatter me, Kraden. [Tyrell] And I'll flatten you... [Kraden] I should have realized sooner, but your chosen name, Arcanus, had me distracted for a while. [Alex] Oh, really? Why was that? [Kraden] Well, in my travels, I had heard of a deck of cards used for telling fortunes... [Alex] Go on. [Kraden] Two of the suits of that deck are Swords and Cups, very similar to our "Blados" and "Chalis." [Alex] And how would that relate to my assumed name? [Kraden] "Arcanus" sounds like the term for the most important cards in the deck. It seemed more than coincidence. [Karis] It figures that you'd name yourself for the most important part... [Alex] That's quite a theory, Kraden. [Alex] I'd love to hear more, but I'm pressed for time. [Amiti] What is so pressing? [Alex] The Tuaparang. [Matthew] ?! [Karis] Wh-what do you mean? [Tyrell] I've got a bad feeling about this... [Rief] What IS that? [Amiti] Oh! [Sveta] Look out, everyone! [Eoleo] It's them, all right. [Himi] Who? [Blados] You're TALKING to them, Arcanus?! [Blados] Why aren't you just KILLING them? [Chalis] That's actually not his name. [Chalis] Alex, was it? [Alex] You were eavesdropping. How rude. [Blados] You traveled with the old man? Does that make you one of the "Warriors of Vale"? [Rief] No! [Rief] Alex was NOT one of the Warriors of Vale. He was a power-mongering schemer. [Rief] He'll probably betray you lot as well. I don't think he's ever honored a vow or promise. [Karis] You can't really be Alex. [Karis] Alex tried to use the Golden Sun to become an immortal, but he failed and was killed. [Blados] Alex, Arcanus, who cares? [Blados] I never liked you and your superior tone. [Chalis] Keep your temper in check, Blados. The High Empyror would not want us fighting amongst ourselves. [Blados] Hmph. [Alex] Your expression suggests that Imperial loyalty is not the first of your priorities. [Chalis] Funny, Alex. Your expression says the same thing. [Alex] Perhaps, then, it is finally time for us to untangle our remaining webs of deception. [Blados] What are you saying? [Chalis] We have our orders, Arcanus. We will not deviate from them. [Alex] Our orders are that Matthew should activate the Apollo Lens. The methods are ours to choose. [Alex] I have determined that the truth is now our best weapon. Matthew, you should know that the Tuaparang are scions of the Umbra Clan, also called Dark Adepts. [Matthew] ?! [Tyrell] Dark Adepts? [Karis] From an Umbra Clan? [Rief] What is he talking about? [Amiti] Impossible. [Sveta] Yet he seems to be telling the truth... [Eoleo] Well I never heard of 'em. [Himi] Another clan? [Alex] The High Empyror sent me to make sure the Apollo Lens was used according to his plan. [Blados] So the High Empyror doubts our loyalty? [Chalis] Or you're setting us up... [Alex] Naturally we can't really trust each other, but I need to ask one question: are those men who came down from the airship really Tuaparang soldiers? [Alex] They seem to have strange powers unlike normal Psynergy... Just like you two. [Alex] You are here for the Apollo Lens, correct? What will you do with it? [Blados] What a good question! Chalis, what will we use it for? [Chalis] h, we can't spoil the surprise, can we? [Alex] Based on the trajectory, your target is Tuaparang... Or perhaps the area around Sol Sanctum... [Alex] Since you have not contradicted my deductions, may we now consider Dark Psynergy an open secret? [Alex] Or...you still intend to keep it secret by eliminating me. [Blados] I knew you'd figure it out eventually. [Chalis] You were always so very clever, Arcanus. [Alex] I can handle these two. Go throw the switch for the Apollo Lens. [Rief] Alex... [Karis] So he did survive the Golden Sun... [Kraden] So it would appear. [Amiti] And apparently there exist Dark Adepts in the world... [Himi] Would Dark Adepts have powers like this horrible eclipse and its monsters? [Tyrell] Dunno. And there's an Umbra Clan now? [Eoleo] I've been all over the world, but I never heard a whisper about 'em. [Kraden] We don't have time to discuss it now. We must activate the Apollo Lens while Alex buys time.

Chaos Hound (msg_apl_t_4)

Hrrrooooooo! Hrroooooooooo! Feh. Looks like you win. You think you're on the side of the angels, but the truth is that there are no angels. No right or wrong. [Sveta] This must be the way to the Apollo Lens's controls. [Sveta] It's...amazing. [Sveta] Let's activate it quickly! [Chaos Hound] Vrrooooon! [Sveta] Help! [Chaos Hound] Vrrooooon! [Matthew] !! [Tyrell] Sveta! [Karis] Sveta! [Rief] What does it want? [Amiti] How will we stop it? [Eoleo] This is gonna hurt. [Himi] ...everyone involved. [Chaos Hound] Vrrooooon! [Sveta] Help! [Chaos Hound] Hrroooooo!! [Chaos Hound] Hrrrrrroooooo... [Chaos Hound] Hrrrrroooo... [Sveta] HELP! [Tyrell] Are you an Adept or not? Use some Psynergy on it! [Chaos Hound] Gaaraaauunn... [Eoleo] Looks like you just made it madder! [Himi] Not angry... Very, very sad... [Sveta] Those are tears... [Amiti] What is wrong, Sveta? [Sveta] You're fighting it, aren't you? I feel the conflict within... [Sveta] I will help you... [Chaos Hound] Harrroooo... [Chaos Hound] Gaaraaauunn... [Sveta] No! [Tyrell] OK, he's calmed down again. [Eoleo] Is he...shrinking? [Karis] He looked like just another monster... [Eoleo] Still looks like a monster to me. [Rief] No, its behavior is all wrong... [Kraden] The flood of dark energies... [Kraden] The moment we appeared, it was ready to attack. I think it's been in pain for some time. [Kraden] If Sveta hadn't spoken to it, the creature would certainly have attacked us. Why so calm now? [Sveta] And why can I hardly look at this creature without wanting to cry...? [Chaos Hound] Haroooo... [Chaos Hound] Gaaraaauunn! [Sveta] Noooo! [Sveta] He's fighting it! Don't interfere! [Chalis] Looks like I have no choice... [Chaos Hound] Vrrrrooooon! [Chalis] I hate to make it hurt more, but I need you just a bit more destructive... [Blados] Time to repay all we've done for you. [Chalis] Hmph. Not much fight in him. Maybe we should have stalled longer. [Chalis] We did everything we could, but he's just too strong willed. [Chaos Hound] Garaaunnooo! [Blados] Ready? [Rief] I guess it was a monster... [Kraden] There must be a way to calm it again... [Chalis] Don't give them time to think! [Chalis] Looks like our pet is ready to fight! [Karis] We're here to stop the eclipse. If we have to fight, so be it. [Blados] Oh, we'll take care of the eclipse...when the time is right. [Chalis] As pleasant as this little chat has been, I'm afraid we can't let you live any longer. But we are genuinely grateful to you—we simply weren't equipped to start the other Alchemy Machines... And without the power they provide, the greatest weapon of the ancient world wouldn't now be in our hands! [Blados] This won't be like before, kids. All this dark energy is making us stronger than ever. Oh, and our little pet... [Chaos Hound] Gaaarrooooowww! [Kraden] You must stop them, Matthew. If they get their hands on the Apollo Lens, we're doomed. Matthew and friends were swallowed up by the light...

Hrrrooooooo! Hrroooooooooo! Feh. Looks like you win. You think you're on the side of the angels, but the truth is that there are no angels. No right or wrong. Matthew and friends were swallowed up by the light... [Blados] Pathetic. How do a bunch of children beat the elite of the Tuaparang Empire? [Chaos Hound] Hrroooooo! [Chalis] Blados, I think it's time to fall back on our alternate plan. Let's call on the power of Dark Binding! [Chaos Hound] Gaaraaauunn! [Chaos Hound] Gaaarooowwwn! [Rief] What is...that? In the shadows? [Kraden] Dark spirits! They're merging with the energies of the eclipse! [Chaos Hound] GaaarroooOOOOWWNN! [Blados] No! I'm getting pulled in too! [Chalis] We can't let Matthew's whelps win! If we're absorbed, then so be it! [Chaos Hound] RRROOOOAAAAWWWRR! [Kraden] This is a dangerous enemy, Matthew. It will challenge you as never before!

Post-Chaos Chimera 1 (msg_apl_t_4b_0)

[Blados] Looks like we lose. [Chalis] The darkness will fade... [Chaos Hound] Hrroooooooo... [Kraden] Excellent work, everyone. You've done your parents one better. [Sveta] Agh! [Karis] Sveta?! What's wrong? [Sveta] My...my brother... [Matthew] !! [Karis] Who...? [Tyrell] Huh? [Rief] Your brother, Sveta? [Eoleo] It's Volechek? [Amiti] This is not possible. [Himi] How could this happen? [Tyrell] What's...? [Karis] We didn't know... [Rief] What happened...? [Chalis] I can tell you. As he was nobly sacrificing himself, we used dark Psynergy to...hm..."save" him. [Blados] And we made a few improvements while we were at it. [Kraden] You took his mind and forced him to fight against his sister... [Chalis] We certainly tried. But he still recognized his sister somehow... Bestial instincts, I suppose. [Blados] But the family reunion won't matter if you stop the eclipse... [Sveta] What do you mean? [Chalis] Volechek is now a creature of darkness. He won't be able to live in your world of light. [Blados] No undoing what we did, either. He wouldn't survive another big shock to his system. [Kraden] So there is truly no way for Volechek to live to see the end of the eclipse... [Amiti] Is there really nothing we can do, Kraden? [Kraden] If we had more time, maybe we could think of something... [Sveta] But we do not. [Sveta] Every moment that the eclipse goes on, countless people suffer and die. [Sveta] At the center of that suffering are the Morgal people. Volechek, as their king, has a responsibility to them. [Karis] Sveta...are you sure? [Sveta] You did not grow up as royalty, Karis. [Sveta] My brother...would understand. [Amiti] Sveta, if I were Volechek, I would be grateful to you for your courage. [Kraden] Then I think we have discussed this long enough. [Kraden] Matthew, the switch on the Apollo Lens... Would you kindly throw it now?

Post-Chaos Chimera 2 (msg_apl_t_4b)

We know you want to stop the eclipse, but you can't just throw your life away! Sveta, you've already done more than your share. Let it go. I wish I could go in your place. I don't like making you take the risk—it feels ungentlemanly. Looks like Matthew was able to keep you afloat a little longer. Keep at it. Just being Morgal royalty doesn't make you responsible for this crisis, Sveta. I know you feel that the eclipse is your fault because of your connection to Volechek, but you are blameless. Sveta, we cannot ask you to risk your life like this. How can we help? Grrr... I can't believe we failed because of this pack of brats... If I can get ahold of the Umbra Gear, we won't need to worry about the Apollo Lens... So much sadness in your eyes... You really are going, aren't you? You're reading my mind now, aren't you, Sveta? Well, good luck. If this is beyond Matthew, it's certainly beyond me. I've never felt so helpless. I'm a pirate, not a diplomat. I wish I could think of something inspirational to say here... Sveta's aura is different than I've ever seen... I believe Matthew's soul is within. There is nothing more we can do. I wonder why my mind drifts to Alex at times like this... Extraordinary! Somehow Sveta is borrowing Matthew's vitality... I guess this is what we've come all this way to do: turn on the Apollo Lens and end the eclipse. I just wonder...if we do throw the switch, what will happen to Sveta's brother? Thanks, Matthew. Thanks for leading us all this way. W-we...won, right? So why are there tears in my eyes? I guess when Volechek dies, my old man will have been avenged... Matthew, I will never forget my time with you. You have been an inspiring leader. While it is hard to cause Sveta grief, it is the lot of all royalty to survive the loss of loved ones. Matthew, it is time to throw the Apollo Lens switch and end this terrible eclipse. I had thought he was dead, only to find he had become a monster. Now he dies again... Matthew, the switch on the Apollo Lens... Would you kindly throw it now? Hrrrooooooo! Hrroooooooooo! Come now, Matthew! Where are you going? The time has come—throw the switch! Arrrooo... Arrroo... Roooo... [Kraden] Don't succumb to the power of the light! [Karis] Steady, Matthew! [Tyrell] You can do it! [Rief] Good luck! [Amiti] Matthew! [Eoleo] You must succeed. [Himi] You can do this. [Sveta] You mustn't give up! [Alex] Stop. [Alex] Matthew, you cannot do this. [Blados] You might as well give up. [Chalis] You're going into the very heart of the light. You don't have enough of a dark side to survive it. [Blados] And Volechek's sister is the only one of your crew who can wear the Umbra Gear. [Chalis] And no matter how much shadow you wear, the amount of light up there will probably kill you anyway. [Blados] We were gonna send Volechek up there to get rid of him when he'd played his part. [Kraden] This would seem to be an impossible situation... [Karis] No! We can't believe that! [Tyrell] I wish I could do it for you, Matthew. [Rief] Time draws short... [Amiti] This has the look of a trap. [Himi] Poor Sveta. [Sveta] I...can do it... [Kraden] Sveta has already been exposed to so much light. Any more will surely... [Volechek] Hrrrroooooo! [Sveta] Matthew, please help me. I will need to borrow your strength to reach the Apollo Lens... [System Message] Will you help her? [Sveta] I cannot walk by myself. Please—I need your help. [Matthew] ... [Sveta] Matthew, I'm sorry for making you come with me. [Sveta] At least we can die knowing that our lives might buy the lives of the others—a small price to pay. [Sveta] Soon we'll reach the controls for the Apollo Lens, and this will all be over... [Sveta] All right, let's go. It's too late to change your mind now. Let's just keep going. [Volechek] Vaaaaarruuuu! [Sveta] Brother... [Kraden] Volechek is still alive! What is the Apollo Lens aimed at? [Karis] It's over... We've lost. [Tyrell] There's gotta be a way! [Chalis] Heh...heh...heh. [Amiti] How pleased you must be that your plan is proceeding. [Blados] No, it looks like seeing his sister in danger has snapped Volechek out of it! [Chalis] I do believe he's about to give his life for his sister and his people... [Sveta] Volechek! [Volechek] Sveta...farewell... If you want to go back to town, we should all go together. Death...is...coming... Feh. Looks like you win. So what about the switch? Having second thoughts? You think you're on the side of the angels, but the truth is that there are no angels. No right or wrong. Give me the Umbra Gear. I'll be happy to go in your place...

Prototype of scene (msg_apl_temple)

Ah, good. Have you finished with the preparations? !! Hmm. What's he doing here? You! Here? Arcanus! Who's this guy? A person of great power. Tyrell, son of Garet... You don't seem pleased to see me. Hmph! I'd be more pleased to just take you on right now! Ah, the impulsiveness, the overconfidence... You really are your father's son. Y-you know my dad? Obviously. Who are you? Why do you know so much about us? Hello, Alex. Alex?! The Mercury clan's traitor? My mother's betrayer? THAT Alex?! What makes you think I am this "Alex"? We traveled together for some time, Alex. I haven't forgotten. You flatter me, Kraden. And I'll flatten you... I should have realized sooner, but your chosen name, "Arcanus," had me distracted for a while. Oh, really? Why was that? Well, in my travels, I had heard of a deck of cards used for telling fortunes... Go on. Two of the suits of that deck are Swords and Cups, very similar to our "Blados" and "Chalis." And how would that relate to my assumed name? "Arcanus" sounds like the term for the most important cards in the deck. It seemed more than coincidence. It figures that you'd name yourself for the most important part... That's quite a theory, Kraden. I'd love to hear more, but I'm pressed for time. What is so pressing? The Tuaparang. !! Wh-what do you mean? I've got a bad feeling about this... What's that? Oh! Look out, everyone! It's them, all right. Who is it? You're TALKING to them?! Why aren't you just KILLING them, Arcanus? That's actually not his name. Alex, was it? You were eavesdropping. How rude. You traveled with the old man? That make you a "Warrior of Vale"? No! Alex was no Warrior of Vale. He was a power-mongering schemer. He'll probably betray you lot as well. I don't think he's ever honored a vow or promise. You can't really be Alex. Alex tried to use the Golden Sun to become an immortal, but he failed and was killed. Alex, Arcanus, who cares? I never liked you and your superior tone. Keep your temper in check, Blados. Our emperor would not want us fighting amongst ourselves. Hmph. Your expression suggests that Imperial loyalty is not the first of your priorities. Funny, Alex. Your expression says the same thing. Perhaps then it's time for you two to reveal yourselves as I have done? What are you trying to say? We should obey orders... The mission wasn't ordered. Matthew and his party using the Apollo is one of the Emperor's wishes. The clan called DARK... Adepts with the power of darkness... ?!

Ending

Upper Belinsk (msg_brfn_town_2_ep)

I've got powers just like an Adept, but instead of boring old fire and wind and stuff, I've got light! I... I can see people who shouldn't be here...walking around. Sometimes they call out to me... Will you be returning home soon? You certainly deserve some rest after saving our entire continent. King Volechek was only able to save us with your help, so we thank you with all our hearts. It's locked from the inside. It's locked from the inside. Thank you for bringing light and life back into the world. I didn't think such a feat was possible. [Karis] Would you relax, Matthew? [Karis] I know you're anxious, but Sveta will be here soon. [Tyrell] Well, she's late. It's not like Sveta to forget her friends. [Left soldier] You're referring to Her Majesty, the queen? [Tyrell] Sveta is already the queen? You guys move fast. [Left soldier] Hmm. At any rate, Her Majesty left some time ago. [Karis] She left? Where did she go? [Right soldier] We were told she was seeing everyone off. She should be at the city gate now. [Tyrell] But...she promised to meet us at the castle gate... [Karis] Well, let's head into town and see if we can find her. It's amazing how revitalized I feel! I'm energetic by day and sleep like a baby through the night. He's even stopped snoring. I think that might qualify as a miracle in its own right. I'm glad for the human-borns, but nothing's changed for we beastmen that were beasts at birth.

Belinsk (msg_brfn_town_1_ep)

There was a sharp light that struck the Eclipse Tower...and the darkness just evaporated! The light hit the tower like a sword slashing through the darkness. That's when everything changed. You say King Volechek was responsible? Amazing! I guess our hair all changed colors because of the big Psynergy release out of the tower. I like my new do. After the eclipse was over, we started calling it the Sol Tower. It seemed more fitting. We thought Luna was the basis of the beastmen's power, but Sol empowers us too! Live and learn. Everyone seems to have been rejuvenated. I feel so young and vital! Since the Sol event, everyone has been endowed with strange new powers. My power seems to be calculating compound interest... It comes in handier than you'd think. I can't believe King Volechek is gone. We won't see his like again in our lifetimes... Not every country's king would give his life for his country. King Volechek is Morgal's new patron saint. For some reason it's now illegal to play "Arangoa Prelude." It makes me sad that I'll never hear it again. I hear we won't be having the festival on full moons anymore... Pity. My son always loved it. Ah, music is my life, and life is my music. I'm grateful to King Volechek that I still have both. Amazingly, our whole band survived everything. I think that qualifies as a miracle. I know we lost a lot of people, but it's easy to forget that when you're looking at a crowd like this. It looked like the end of the world, but I have a feeling it was really the beginning of the new one. Every member of the band was home when all the bad stuff happened, and we all survived! Some ask how we can play after everything that happened. The answer is simple: people need music to heal. It's locked from the inside. It's locked from the inside. Did you have a request? With six members, we can play three different songs. Would you like to hear one? Mountain Roc Rising. Lake Bycal Moonlight. Rainbow over Koba Desert. Maybe another time... Great! Ready, guys? One, two, three, four... One, two, three... We all enjoy wandering through Morgal playing for whoever wants to listen. Maybe music can't stop wars, but at least it helps people forget them for a while.

Belinsk dock (msg_brfn_town_3_ep)

I wish we could take ye all the way home, but it bein' the other side o' the world, we'll say our good-byes here. Seasoned sailors like you are wasted on the land. Come back and visit anytime! If yer determined to get home, I'm sure nothin' any of us say or do could ever stop you! Prob'ly about time we brought this ship into Port Rago for some repairs, eh? I wonder if the legend be true...? Oh, sorry! Thinkin' out loud. Want to know about the legend? Briggs once told me about some kind o' special whirlpool that's a tunnel to another world. I didn't believe him at first, but he seemed so serious about it... Not interested in otherworldly treasure, eh? That's all right. Another time, maybe. Now that I think on it, there was an adventurer who sailed all over, looking for that whirlpool. If I'm not mistaken, he's a merchant in Yamata City now...

Leaving Belinsk (msg_brfn_ep_ivnt)

[Karis] Where is everyone? [Tyrell] Looking at it one more time, I guess Belinsk isn't such a bad place. [Tyrell] What are you doing? [Eoleo] Seeing you off! [Amiti] I waited as long as I could. [Rief] It was time to go. [Kraden] I assume we'll be leaving soon as well, Matthew? [Himi] I will think of you often. [Sveta] We will see each other again, right? [Karis] Of course. We're all young, except for Kraden, and he doesn't age! [Vande] Thanks for all you've done for us, Matthew. [Crowd] You saved us all! [Crowd] You're leaving? [Crowd] You guys are my heroes. [Crowd] Please come back to visit sometime! [Crowd] Are you going home to see your parents again? [Crowd] Take it easy for a while. You've earned it. [Crowd] Your friendship is an inspiration. [Crowd] You made it through all the dangers! [Crowd] We'll happily play for you anytime. [Crowd] We need you! [Karis] Where did they come from? [Sveta] From all over Morgal. They wanted to see you off and give you their thanks. [Crowd] Everyone owes you their gratitude. [Crowd] How can we thank you enough?! [Crowd] Don't go! Stay here with us! [Crowd] Tell us about all your adventures! [Crowd] You can't go away! [Crowd] Don't forget the people of Belinsk. [Crowd] You won't be able to hear us play... [Crowd] Don't you like Morgal? [Crowd] Stay in Belinsk. Please? [Sveta] This is how they all feel...? [Tyrell] It's nice to be liked, huh? But it's probably time to get this roc feather home... [Eoleo] Had enough gratitude? I guess I'll head home too, after I drop Himi off in Yamata. [Himi] Thank you. [Amiti] My countrymen no doubt await my return. I will leave shortly. [Rief] And what shall we do? [Kraden] Whatever you think is best. From now on, you will learn not from me, but from the world. [Kraden] There are always new mysteries to solve. [Karis] The longer we stand here, the harder it is to leave. Let's go home.

Returning to Lookout Cabin (msg_goma_ep)

[Karis] Ah, it's good to be back! [Tyrell] Nice to see the good ol' cabin again, eh, Matthew? [Karis] What's wrong, Matthew? [Tyrell] Aren't you happy to be home? [Karis] What, Matthew? [Tyrell] Look over there! [System Message] Would you like to save? [System Message] Are you sure you don't want to save? [Message] The End...? [System Message] Congratulations! You have reached the ending of Golden Sun: Dark Dawn. When you load this file, you will be in Tonfon, at the point just before your final battle at the Apollo Lens. You can now sail the eclipsed world, searching for the remaining secrets.

[Tyrell] So we've got our map now? Let's go find this "Umbra Gear." [Rief] Except that the map is ancient, and geography all changed with the Golden Sun. Everything has moved. [Karis] I think I can help with that! Let's see... If this is Mount Aleph... So that's over there... Hmm... [Karis] Got it! I think I've figured out where all we need to go. [Karis] Obviously I couldn't get exact locations, but we can start looking in the spots I marked. [Rief] While the Umbra Gear is certainly important, shouldn't we get our guests back to Sana first? [Kraden] Ever the gentleman, Rief! Yes, let's get them back to Tonfon immediately. Matthew peered into the shallows... There's something down there! It's a coin! Whoa! The boat just rocked violently! Matthew almost fell right out! There's a dark outline of a fish... A really big fish... There's nothing here but seaweed. There's something shiny down there! Wait, false alarm. That was a fish. There's a person in the water! No, wait, that's just Matthew's reflection. If you look in the water too long, you can get a little seasick... Those are some rough seas. There'd be no hope of rescue if you fell in... [Tyrell] Whoa! A Djinni, right in front of us! What should we do? [Karis] Catch it, of course! [Flint] Wait, wait! It's me...Flint! [Flint] Your father sent me to look after you, Matthew. [Flint] You'll need assistance from Djinn if you hope to survive the trip to the Mountain Roc. [Flint] Besides, none of you has been on a real adventure before. But I have! [Flint] So I'm glad to help out! Now, let's be on our way, friends! [Flint] I've got a message from your father, Matthew. [Flint] He says that while you're at Patcher's Place, be sure to visit the Psynergy Training Grounds. Then make your way to meet Kraden at Carver's Camp. Isaac has already gotten word that Kraden is there, waiting by the bridge for you. Would you like me to repeat all of that? [Flint] Well then, off we go! The ship is completely sunk. There's no way to get in. Is someone there?! Hey! Hello? Anyone here? We've come to help! Is there anyone still alive here? Please, give a shout! There comes no reply... [Merchant] Supposedly there's a whirlpool southwest of Nihan that acts as a portal to a hidden island. [Merchant] Let's team up! We'll head southwest and look for this swirling vortex together. It should be obvious. [Merchant] This is it! I've finally found the phantom island! [Merchant] I definitely couldn't have found it without you. Thank you very, very much. [Merchant] The legends say that the most powerful spirit of all sleeps on this island. Think it's true? [Merchant] I can't stand another moment idle. I need to explore! There's nothing more we can do. Everyone's...gone. [Eoleo] It's finally time to get moving! [Eoleo] Since you're the new captain, you'll need to know how to get on and off the ship. [Eoleo] To get off the ship, head for a beach or dock and sail right into it. To get back on, just walk back into the ship wherever it's waiting for you. [Eoleo] So if you see a beach somewhere, it's probably worth checking out. You get all that? [Eoleo] Great! I'll wait for your orders, Captain. [Eoleo] All right, I'll explain it one more time, but listen up this time...Captain.

Sun Saga

Sun Saga 1 (msg_kamisibai_1)

The saga of the Golden Sun begins long before the transformative event happened over Mount Aleph and the village of Vale. The relics that could release the Golden Sun were hidden within a temple known as Sol Sanctum. Then came the day that the villagers Garet, Isaac, and Jenna set out to meet the local scholar of Alchemy. They stumbled across strangers in the shadows who desired to possess the relics of the temple. They rushed to find the scholar Kraden, who said they had to find out if Sol Sanctum had been breached. Though only priests were allowed inside, Kraden and his friends dared to enter the temple to find out the truth. The traps they found within the temple should have scared them away, but its mysteries lured them ever deeper. But what they truly couldn't resist was the spirit of adventure. Their final destination took them to the heart of the mountain where the relics of the temple had been hidden. Their moment of wonder was interrupted by the arrival of thieving fiends!They'd duped Kraden into solving the temple's riddles for them! Their guide was Felix, none other than Jenna's brother, who was thought drowned during a storm in Vale three years earlier. The thieves stole Jenna and Kraden away... and then stole the legendary relics from Sol Sanctum...the Elemental Stars. Isaac and Garet were left to fend for themselves inside the relic chamber. Their exit was cut off. They couldn't leave the chamber! The mountain began to shake angrily, awoken by the loss of the elemental relics. Magma began to bubble and gush. Mount Aleph was, in truth, a slumbering volcano! Isaac and Garet were trapped! Just then, the protector of Sol Sanctum appeared! The godlike Wise One had come to their rescue! The Wise One explained that a nightmare had been put into motion by the theft of the Elemental Stars.Four lighthouses, which had sealed away the apocalyptic power of Alchemy, could now be powered back up! The lighthouses could be reignited with their matching Elemental Stars...unleashing Alchemy upon the world. After telling of ancient catastrophes averted...and a new one soon to begin...the Wise One teleported Isaac and Garet safely out of the mountain, back up to the temple entrance. They were saved from the volcanic wrath of Mount Aleph.

Sun Saga 2 (msg_kamisibai_2)

The day after Mount Aleph erupted, Isaac and Garet left Vale. They began their quest to get the Elemental Stars back. And, of course, to rescue the kidnapped Jenna and Kraden from their captors. Jenna's brother, Felix, who had turned traitor on Vale, had to be stopped. As they traveled across the continent, the two heroes met others who joined their party. The Wind Adept known as Ivan was next to join. Along with his power over the skies, he could read people's minds. The three Adepts journeyed onward... enduring trials of their heroism throughout the continent... until they finally arrived in Imil, where they found the first Elemental Lighthouse. Here they met Mia, who had devoted her life to caring for the sick and elderly of Imil. Mia was also one of few members of her family still alive to look after the lighthouse, the one devoted to the water element. Unfortunately, by the time Mia and the heroes entered the lighthouse, they found its beacon already lit. Someone had beaten them there, someone who'd helped reignite its fire. This intruder was Mia's cousin, Alex. As another surviving member of her family, Alex was a Water Adept, like Mia. His betrayal of his people meant failure for the heroes as well. They could not stop the beacon from being lit. Isaac and the party had traveled so far, yet their journey had been in vain. Mia was bound by duty to join Isaac and his friends. She knew that her cousin would stop at nothing to ignite all of the lighthouses. Together, they could perhaps stop Felix and Alex, the two fiends who had the same mad ambition. The party was now four strong! The Adepts renewed the chase!

Sun Saga 3 (msg_kamisibai_3)

In pursuit of Felix and Alex, the heroes entered lands that brimmed with mystery. They met foreign peoples whose lives were tossed and turned by the fates of those terrible times. But no matter what hurdles stood in the heroes' way, still they found a way forward. In their travels, one thing was clear: the rising tide of chaos!The Mercury Lighthouse, they guessed, was causing all the problems with its fluid, chaotic influence! But the waves of monsters that they fought... all fell before their valor, giving the heroes greater confidence! After reaching Tolbi, the greatest city of Angara, they crossed the bridge to another continent. The heroes entered Gondowan and braved its vast deserts. In time, they fought their way to the city of Lalivero, home to the Venus Lighthouse. They were ready to face the dangers of the second lighthouse! Unfortunately, Alex and his party had already beaten them there. The Venus Lighthouse, emerging from the desert sands, was even more mysterious than the Mercury Lighthouse. The climb up the Venus Lighthouse was fraught with peril, but at long last the heroes caught up with the fiends. But they didn't find Felix or Alex waiting for them at the top. They instead came face-to-face with warriors from a strange land who were immensely powerful. In a brutal battle, the heroes narrowly defeated the warriors. But... They couldn't stop the lighthouse from being activated! There was a shocking release of its elemental earth power! The Venus Lighthouse began to collapse! As it crumbled, Felix lost his grip on one of his captives, Sheba, the priestess of Lalivero. He dove after her. The two vanished into the waves far below the lighthouse...

Sun Saga 4 (msg_kamisibai_4)

Isaac and his friends survived the destruction around Lalivero. They soon continued their hunt on an ancient boat bound for the Eastern Sea. Though still in pursuit of those who had kidnapped Jenna... They had also been given a new mission by the ruler of Tolbi. Above all, this ruler wanted to find the lost land of the ancients, Lemuria. Their search took them far and wide. What they soon found shocked them all... They caught wind of the news that Felix and Sheba were still alive. The scoundrel and his captive had survived the collapse of the Venus Lighthouse. Isaac heard first that Felix's journey had taken him to Izumo. Word was that Felix and his party had defeated the legendary serpent of Izumo...and saved a village. And Felix had also caught up with the notorious pirate known as Briggs...and given him a thrashing. Such heroism...from Felix? Then, word reached them that he had braved the Ankohl ruins to gain its treasures. It was at that point that Isaac set their course for the third lighthouse. They came to the continent of Atteka, the home of the Jupiter Lighthouse. Isaac and the group were eager to catch up with Felix. But Felix's party was well ahead of them. They had already reached the lighthouse. And in their frustration, Isaac and his friends made a foolish error... They walked right into a trap. But not one set by Felix. Two warriors from Prox, a remote tribal village of Fire Adepts, had ensnared them. The warriors from Prox had drawn everyone into their scheme to restart the lighthouses...for their own reasons. The true fiends behind everything believed they could achieve their goals and finish off the heroes in one master stroke. But just as the final blow began to fall, an unexpected hero rose to save the day: the wayward son of Vale, Felix. The Proxians fled the scene. Isaac and his friends were saved. But the third lighthouse had been relit. Isaac and his friends had failed again! It was then that Isaac found out what Kraden had learned about the true secret of the lighthouses and Alchemy. There was an important reason that Felix had embarked on his journey to restart the Elemental Lighthouses. The flat world of Weyard was heading for apocalypse. When the ancients sealed up Alchemy, they had cut off the world's life force. Its edges were crumbling away. Weyard was approaching its final end. Alchemy had been sealed up because people had abused its power. But the consequences were even more severe. The heroes were faced with two choices: they could either let the world continue to crumble away... or they could unleash the unpredictable power of Alchemy, but in doing so, revitalize their dying world. Isaac and his friends understood at last that the cause they had been serving was a disastrous one. They vowed to restart the fourth lighthouse and restore the force of Alchemy to the world.

Sun Saga 5 (msg_kamisibai_5)

The last of the lighthouses to be relit, the Mars Lighthouse, was located in far-northern Prox. The Proxian people were on the verge of extinction, which was why their warriors were trying to restart the lighthouses. Their homeland was crumbling before their very eyes. Isaac's and Felix's parties joined forces to save the world. With their combined efforts, they finally succeeded in restarting the Mars Lighthouse. At that moment, energy brighter than the sun's plasma shot out from each of the four lighthouses. The four beams met in the sky above Mount Aleph. A fiery sphere, burning like a golden sun, appeared there, radiating energy that spread throughout the world. For the Golden Sun, indeed, had arrived. The phenomenon saved the world from decay and death. And the heroes who had journeyed so long came to be known as the Warriors of Vale. Those warriors sacrificed all to bring the dawn of the Golden Sun! Now, a new generation will live its own legend!
