53,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_ESTINIEN_000_012","Hm. To be honest, I've no interest in visiting the void myself."
54,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_ESTINIEN_000_013","...Might we discuss this later? There is something I must do first."
55,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_014","Why does everyone insist on being so secretive? I at least had good reason for not wanting to explain my nixie ritual..."
56,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_015","Ahem. Shall we proceed with our other preparations, then?"
57,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_016","As we saw, the warding scale can be effective at protecting the bearer from other sources of aetheric corruption. Nevertheless, the talisman's durability will need to be improved if it is to withstand the void's influence for a prolonged length of time."
58,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_017","And I think that is a problem we can address without involving the brilliant but busy alchemists who created it. Who do we know who excels at this kind of structural augmentation?"

65,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_020","Perhaps they once did, but availing ourselves of Allagan insights tends to be an involved process in and of itself."
66,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_021","Nay, I believe a more straightforward approach is in order: consulting with the engineers of Garlond Ironworks."

71,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_026","With his experienced hand at the helm, I have every confidence that the Ironworks can strengthen the warding scale."

76,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_EMPLOYEE04535_000_062","Master Cid? Certainly, I'll see if he has a moment free."
77,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_CID_000_063","A pleasure as always. I hear you have a job for us?"
78,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_CID_000_064","Heading into the void to find a lost dragon... That sounds almost pedestrian compared to your last adventure. Honestly, I don't know if you could say anything that would surprise me after Meteion and that bloody mess."
79,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_CID_000_065","All right, let's take a look at this talisman of yours. You said there were signs of degradation?"
80,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_CID_000_066","Hm, it seems some manner of corrosion has set in around a scratch on its surface─much as the void's corruption seeped into Nero through his wounds. In which case, our best bet may be to simply prevent the scale from being damaged in the first place."
81,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_067","And how might we achieve that?"
82,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_CID_000_068","We have a coating agent for strengthening trinkets and the like, but I'd be wary of applying any compound which might upset the scale's delicate alchemical balance. Far safer to dress it in armor."
83,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_CID_000_069","We'll construct a protective casing─one utilizing metal alloys with high aetherial conductivity, so as not to impede the talisman's primary function."
84,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_070","A suit of armor, as you said."
85,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_CID_000_071","Nero has compiled data on the Thirteenth, so I'll have him pitch in with the design just to be sure."
86,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_CID_000_072","If only it weren't such an ordeal to convince him to follow our safety protocols... I swear, I've never had such a reckless employee. In any case, we may need some time to untangle the particulars."
87,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_CID_000_073","If only it weren't such an ordeal to convince him to follow our safety protocols... In any case, we may need some time to untangle the particulars."
88,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_074","Understandable. We know how busy your schedule is, and the final result will doubtless be worth the wait."
89,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_CID_000_075","Hah, the hard part will be ducking Jessie and her constant barrage of demands while we sneak about doing the fun stuff. We'll see what we can do."
90,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_076","I think we can leave the rest in Cid's capable hands. Let's return to the Great Work, and see how Nidhana is getting on with the mock Atomos."
91,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_100","I hope Nidhana has good news for us."
92,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_VARSHAHN_000_105","The insatiable curiosity of our alchemists has ever amazed me...though I've largely left them to their own devices since we opened the gate together."
93,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_VARSHAHN_000_150","I will not squander this chance you have given me. I <Emphasis>will</Emphasis> find Azdaja..."
94,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_ESTINIEN_000_155","Convincing others to follow their hearts is not my forte. I would have gladly let our more...philosophical comrades take the lead, had they been here."
95,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_NIDHANA_000_160","We'll have that Atomos built before you know it! When a project like this comes along, we give it our full and undivided attention. Sleep? Pah! Who needs it!"
96,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_NIDHANA_100_160","Oh, that reminds me! I really should finish that <Emphasis>other</Emphasis> project I was working on for His Excellency..."
97,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_NAHBDEEN_000_165","What? Someone needed to give that boy a good talking to."
98,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_NAHBDEEN_000_170","(Uh, you don't suppose I'll be reprimanded, do you? I <Emphasis>did</Emphasis> just yell at the satrap...)"
99,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_180","You surprise me, Estinien. For a lone wolf, you've shown an unusual degree of, shall we say, “involvement” in helping Vrtra reach this conclusion."
100,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_ESTINIEN_000_181","'Twas for the greater good. The wyrm's thundering sighs were keeping his citizens awake at night, and had travelers believing the palace wracked by some unnatural storm."
101,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_182","What of your own answer, then? You seemed disinclined to venture into the void..."
102,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_ESTINIEN_000_183","When I was one with Nidhogg, his vengeful thoughts were my thoughts. His endless rage my rage..."
103,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_ESTINIEN_000_184","And the soul-chilling grief he nursed for Ratatoskr's death..."
104,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_ESTINIEN_000_185","I would not wish such agony upon a foe, let alone a friend and ally. If there is a chance we can spare Vrtra that pain, then I will follow you."
105,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_Q2_000_000","What will you say?"
106,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_A2_000_001","An unusual crew we have here."
107,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_A2_000_002","Any other “former” Scions we should call on?"
108,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_A2_000_003","Just the four of us...?"
109,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_187","Indeed, but perfect for our purpose, I should think. I'd rather not bother the Scions with aught less than a dire threat to the star."
110,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_188","I'd rather not bother our comrades with aught less than a dire threat to the star. We four should be sufficient for our purpose."
111,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_189","With things as they are, I'd rather not bother our comrades with aught less than a dire threat to the star."
112,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_190","It will make for an interesting journey besides. Traveling in a smaller party for a change─crowds can be a bit draining, don't you think?"
113,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_100_190","Now, on to specifics."
114,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_191","Unlike the First, where the Flood of Light was halted before its devastation was complete, the Thirteenth has been utterly subsumed by Darkness. My plan, as such, is to explore the void in stages, withdrawing to safety after each brief foray."
115,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_192","'Twould be more convenient had we some manner of base camp nearer to the gate itself..."
116,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_VARSHAHN_000_193","One of the palace chambers should serve. Come, let us reconvene outside Meghaduta."
117,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_ESTINIEN_000_200","I was put up in a guest room in the palace while I awaited my audience with Vrtra. I expect we'll be given the use of something similar."
118,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_205","Conducting our expedition out of the Rising Stones would raise just as many questions as recruiting too many Scions. At least here in RadzatHan, we might be expected to appear road-weary from our “local” explorations."
119,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_OFFICIAL04535_000_210","Please, may you aid the satrap in his endeavor, even as he aids you in yours."
120,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_VARSHAHN_000_220","...And so we will require suitable accommodations. Might we make something available for our guests?"
121,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_OFFICIAL04535_000_221","All the chambers are presently hosting the great mounds of treasure we carried out of the vault. Once the foundation's activities begin in earnest, however, we can redistribute the trove and make a room or two ready for habitation."
122,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_VARSHAHN_000_222","Good. Please inform me when you've completed the arrangements."
123,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_VARSHAHN_000_223","As you heard, we will have you settled in Meghaduta in due time."
124,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_224","As ever, you are most gracious, Your Excellency."
125,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_VARSHAHN_000_225","You risk yourselves to aid me in my search for Azdaja. Providing comfortable quarters is the least I can do."
126,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_226","I only wish we knew more about our destination. The gods only know how long our explorations might possibly take, or what our chances of success might possibly be..."
127,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_VARSHAHN_000_227","Succeed or fail, I am grateful to you for convincing me to make the attempt."
128,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_228","On that note, I will return to the Great Work and lend what help I can to Nidhana. If you've preparations to make ere we venture into the Thirteenth, now is the time."
129,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_ESTINIEN_000_229","All I need is my armor and my lance. Perhaps I'll train with the Radiant Host to pass the time before we depart."
130,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_VARSHAHN_000_230","You know what this means to me, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>, but my purpose need not consume you as well."
131,"TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_VARSHAHN_000_231","We are headed to another world. Find what joy you can in the experience. For you are a traveler─an adventurer at heart. This I know."

5 1 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_SEQ_01 Y'shtola, relieved at the safe conclusion to her experiment, deliberates how best to augment the talisman for your forthcoming expedition into the void. Not wanting to further burden the alchemists of the Great Work, you settle on bringing the problem to the Garlond Ironworks operation in Rhalgr's Reach. If anyone can find a solution, it will be Cid and his innovative engineers.
6 2 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_SEQ_02 Fascinated by your commission, Cid agrees to fashion a protective case for the talisman, even promising to enlist the incorrigible Nero and his trove of data on the Thirteenth. With one solution pending, Y'shtola suggests a return to the Great Work, where Nidhana has hopefully made progress on the construction of the mock Atomos.
7 3 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_SEQ_03 Nidhana is pleased to speak of her own good fortune in ascertaining the simulacrum's necessary components, as well as receiving unexpected offers of assistance from the High Crucible's alchemists. Despite the imminent possibility of travel to the void, however, Vrtra remains hesitant about resuming the search for his sister. Strong words of encouragement from Nahbdeen and the assembled Thavnairians nearly convince him to reach a decision, but it is your contribution which finally moves the great wyrm to “take heart.” Thus bolstered in spirit, Vrtra announces he will trust Radz–at–Han to his people for a time, and attempt what he has dreamed of for five thousand long years.

52 48 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_ESTINIEN_000_001 Seeing the void's terrors firsthand was an experience. But I doubt fear of such creatures is at the root of Vrtra's hesitation...
53 49 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_WARRIOR04532_000_002 Will you be setting sail for the vault?
54 50 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_Q3_000_003 Proceed to Weaver's Warding?
55 51 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_010 Once Nidhana succeeds in replicating the mock Atomos, this door into the Thirteenth will be ours to open.
56 52 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_011 Will you be crossing the threshold alongside us? I realize this is more my endeavor than yours...
57 53 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_ESTINIEN_000_012 Hm. To be honest, I've no interest in visiting the void myself.
58 54 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_ESTINIEN_000_013 ...Might we discuss this later? There is something I must do first.
59 55 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_014 Why does everyone insist on being so secretive? I at least had good reason for not wanting to explain my nixie ritual...
60 56 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_015 Ahem. Shall we proceed with our other preparations, then?
61 57 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_016 As we saw, the warding scale can be effective at protecting the bearer from other sources of aetheric corruption. Nevertheless, the talisman's durability will need to be improved if it is to withstand the void's influence for a prolonged length of time.
62 58 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_017 And I think that is a problem we can address without involving the brilliant but busy alchemists who created it. Who do we know who excels at this kind of structural augmentation?
63 59 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_Q1_000_000 What will you say?
64 60 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_A1_000_001 Garlond Ironworks.
65 61 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_A1_000_002 The Allagans!
66 62 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_A1_000_003
67 63 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_A1_000_004 I'm...not sure?
68 64 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_019 An excellent suggestion.
69 65 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_020 Perhaps they once did, but availing ourselves of Allagan insights tends to be an involved process in and of itself.
70 66 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_021 Nay, I believe a more straightforward approach is in order: consulting with the engineers of Garlond Ironworks.
71 67 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_022
72 68 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_023
73 69 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_024 What of Garlond Ironworks, then? They may have an engineer free to assist us.
74 70 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_025 As I recall, Cid himself is no stranger to the void and its volatile energies.
75 71 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_026 With his experienced hand at the helm, I have every confidence that the Ironworks can strengthen the warding scale.
76 72 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_027 Come, let us visit their operation in Rhalgr's Reach and commission their best and brightest.
77 73 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_050 Perhaps this young man can locate Cid for us.
78 74 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_EMPLOYEE04535_000_060 <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>! What brings you to the Ironworks?
79 75 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_061 We have a commission for you and your president, actually. Assuming he's available...?
80 76 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_EMPLOYEE04535_000_062 Master Cid? Certainly, I'll see if he has a moment free.
81 77 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_CID_000_063 A pleasure as always. I hear you have a job for us?
82 78 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_CID_000_064 Heading into the void to find a lost dragon... That sounds almost pedestrian compared to your last adventure. Honestly, I don't know if you could say anything that would surprise me after Meteion and that bloody mess.
83 79 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_CID_000_065 All right, let's take a look at this talisman of yours. You said there were signs of degradation?
84 80 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_CID_000_066 Hm, it seems some manner of corrosion has set in around a scratch on its surface─much as the void's corruption seeped into Nero through his wounds. In which case, our best bet may be to simply prevent the scale from being damaged in the first place.
85 81 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_067 And how might we achieve that?
86 82 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_CID_000_068 We have a coating agent for strengthening trinkets and the like, but I'd be wary of applying any compound which might upset the scale's delicate alchemical balance. Far safer to dress it in armor.
87 83 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_CID_000_069 We'll construct a protective casing─one utilizing metal alloys with high aetherial conductivity, so as not to impede the talisman's primary function.
88 84 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_070 A suit of armor, as you said.
89 85 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_CID_000_071 Nero has compiled data on the Thirteenth, so I'll have him pitch in with the design just to be sure.
90 86 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_CID_000_072 If only it weren't such an ordeal to convince him to follow our safety protocols... I swear, I've never had such a reckless employee. In any case, we may need some time to untangle the particulars.
91 87 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_CID_000_073 If only it weren't such an ordeal to convince him to follow our safety protocols... In any case, we may need some time to untangle the particulars.
92 88 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_074 Understandable. We know how busy your schedule is, and the final result will doubtless be worth the wait.
93 89 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_CID_000_075 Hah, the hard part will be ducking Jessie and her constant barrage of demands while we sneak about doing the fun stuff. We'll see what we can do.
94 90 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_076 I think we can leave the rest in Cid's capable hands. Let's return to the Great Work, and see how Nidhana is getting on with the mock Atomos.
95 91 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_100 I hope Nidhana has good news for us.
96 92 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_VARSHAHN_000_105 The insatiable curiosity of our alchemists has ever amazed me...though I've largely left them to their own devices since we opened the gate together.
97 93 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_VARSHAHN_000_150 I will not squander this chance you have given me. I <Emphasis>will</Emphasis> find Azdaja...
98 94 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_ESTINIEN_000_155 Convincing others to follow their hearts is not my forte. I would have gladly let our more...philosophical comrades take the lead, had they been here.
99 95 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_NIDHANA_000_160 We'll have that Atomos built before you know it! When a project like this comes along, we give it our full and undivided attention. Sleep? Pah! Who needs it!
100 96 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_NIDHANA_100_160 Oh, that reminds me! I really should finish that <Emphasis>other</Emphasis> project I was working on for His Excellency...
101 97 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_NAHBDEEN_000_165 What? Someone needed to give that boy a good talking to.
102 98 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_NAHBDEEN_000_170 (Uh, you don't suppose I'll be reprimanded, do you? I <Emphasis>did</Emphasis> just yell at the satrap...)
103 99 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_180 You surprise me, Estinien. For a lone wolf, you've shown an unusual degree of, shall we say, “involvement” in helping Vrtra reach this conclusion.
104 100 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_ESTINIEN_000_181 'Twas for the greater good. The wyrm's thundering sighs were keeping his citizens awake at night, and had travelers believing the palace wracked by some unnatural storm.
105 101 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_182 What of your own answer, then? You seemed disinclined to venture into the void...
106 102 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_ESTINIEN_000_183 When I was one with Nidhogg, his vengeful thoughts were my thoughts. His endless rage my rage...
107 103 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_ESTINIEN_000_184 And the soul-chilling grief he nursed for Ratatoskr's death...
108 104 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_ESTINIEN_000_185 I would not wish such agony upon a foe, let alone a friend and ally. If there is a chance we can spare Vrtra that pain, then I will follow you.
109 105 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_Q2_000_000 What will you say?
110 106 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_A2_000_001 An unusual crew we have here.
111 107 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_A2_000_002 Any other “former” Scions we should call on?
112 108 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_A2_000_003 Just the four of us...?
113 109 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_187 Indeed, but perfect for our purpose, I should think. I'd rather not bother the Scions with aught less than a dire threat to the star.
114 110 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_188 I'd rather not bother our comrades with aught less than a dire threat to the star. We four should be sufficient for our purpose.
115 111 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_189 With things as they are, I'd rather not bother our comrades with aught less than a dire threat to the star.
116 112 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_190 It will make for an interesting journey besides. Traveling in a smaller party for a change─crowds can be a bit draining, don't you think?
117 113 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_100_190 Now, on to specifics.
118 114 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_191 Unlike the First, where the Flood of Light was halted before its devastation was complete, the Thirteenth has been utterly subsumed by Darkness. My plan, as such, is to explore the void in stages, withdrawing to safety after each brief foray.
119 115 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_192 'Twould be more convenient had we some manner of base camp nearer to the gate itself...
120 116 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_VARSHAHN_000_193 One of the palace chambers should serve. Come, let us reconvene outside Meghaduta.
121 117 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_ESTINIEN_000_200 I was put up in a guest room in the palace while I awaited my audience with Vrtra. I expect we'll be given the use of something similar.
122 118 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_205 Conducting our expedition out of the Rising Stones would raise just as many questions as recruiting too many Scions. At least here in Radz–at–Han, we might be expected to appear road-weary from our “local” explorations.
123 119 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_OFFICIAL04535_000_210 Please, may you aid the satrap in his endeavor, even as he aids you in yours.
124 120 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_VARSHAHN_000_220 ...And so we will require suitable accommodations. Might we make something available for our guests?
125 121 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_OFFICIAL04535_000_221 All the chambers are presently hosting the great mounds of treasure we carried out of the vault. Once the foundation's activities begin in earnest, however, we can redistribute the trove and make a room or two ready for habitation.
126 122 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_VARSHAHN_000_222 Good. Please inform me when you've completed the arrangements.
127 123 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_VARSHAHN_000_223 As you heard, we will have you settled in Meghaduta in due time.
128 124 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_224 As ever, you are most gracious, Your Excellency.
129 125 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_VARSHAHN_000_225 You risk yourselves to aid me in my search for Azdaja. Providing comfortable quarters is the least I can do.
130 126 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_226 I only wish we knew more about our destination. The gods only know how long our explorations might possibly take, or what our chances of success might possibly be...
131 127 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_VARSHAHN_000_227 Succeed or fail, I am grateful to you for convincing me to make the attempt.
132 128 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_YSHTOLA_000_228 On that note, I will return to the Great Work and lend what help I can to Nidhana. If you've preparations to make ere we venture into the Thirteenth, now is the time.
133 129 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_ESTINIEN_000_229 All I need is my armor and my lance. Perhaps I'll train with the Radiant Host to pass the time before we depart.
134 130 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_VARSHAHN_000_230 You know what this means to me, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>, but my purpose need not consume you as well.
135 131 TEXT_AKTKMH110_04535_VARSHAHN_000_231 We are headed to another world. Find what joy you can in the experience. For you are a traveler─an adventurer at heart. This I know.
