10TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_SEQ_00The bereaved dragon has fallen silent, leaving Estinien to sigh with frustration.
21TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_SEQ_01Though you and Estinien hoped to learn more of your surrounds, the dragon shade is committed to resuming its silent vigil. Nevertheless, what little insight you gained may prove to be beneficial, and so the two of you return to rendezvous with the other Scions.
32TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_SEQ_02After discussing the collected results of your investigations of the island and its inhabitants, prospects for a path forward appear grim, until Y'shtola posits a theory based on Meteion's assertion that emotions dictate reality in this dominion of dynamis. Following Thancred's example, she suspects you must overcome the powerful emotions that maintain the island's current state. Hearing this, Urianger suggests speaking with Al End, a dragon whose sorrow is perhaps most pronounced among his kin. Countering his despair may serve to alter the island, and create a path by which you may advance.
43TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_SEQ_03Estinien steps forward to confront Al End, and as their exchange grows more intense, something stirs within the timeworn dragon. With a terrible cry, he transforms into a small, black bird, and summons a swirling vortex that consumes Estinien. In the blink of an eye, another friend is lost, but in his wake a powerful wind begins to blow, and a path leading away from the island opens.
54TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_SEQ_04You and your comrades follow the wind, until you reach a cliff with a localized cyclone at its edge. Alphinaud bids you go on ahead, that he might have a moment to gather his thoughts.
65TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_SEQ_05Though Estinien is no more, he is still with you in spirit, as is Thancred. For their sake, and for all those who yet live on Etheirys, you press onward in search of Meteion.

4948TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ELDERDRAGON04454_000_000......
5049TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ESTINIEN_000_010They want only to brood in silence. To be left alone with their grief until time itself comes to an end.
5150TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ESTINIEN_000_011The sole reward for senseless bloodshed. A pain I understand...and wish that I did not.
5251TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ESTINIEN_000_012What fools we were...
5352TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ESTINIEN_000_013But now isn't the time for such thoughts.
5453TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ESTINIEN_000_014The others will want to hear what we've learned. Come.
5554TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALISAIE_000_020Good to see you made it back in one piece. The more I see of this place, the more bewildering it becomes.
5655TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_URIANGER_000_025I chanced to gain audience with several dragons ere we returned, though I expect their tales are much the same as those you heard.
5756TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_YSHTOLA_000_030We would hear what the dragons had to share with you. Even if it's no different from what they told Urianger, it would have value.
5857TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_GRAHATIA_000_035Did your exploration prove eventful? Converse with any dragons?
5958TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ESTINIEN_000_040With luck, they'll have learned something to help us devise a plan of action.
6059TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALPHINAUD_000_050Were you able to establish any meaningful contact with the dragons?
6160TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALPHINAUD_000_051I see... They wish to escape what they perceive to be a cycle of conflict.
6261TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALPHINAUD_000_052Thank you, Player. Estinien.
6362TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALPHINAUD_000_053As for our part, I believe we are more acutely aware of our confines than before...
6463TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALPHINAUD_000_054We started by traversing the perimeter of the island, to see if there might be a path leading off of it. Sadly, there was nothing to be found.
6564TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ESTINIEN_000_055There's no small amount of debris floating about. Could there be enough to serve as a bridge to lead us elsewhere?
6665TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALPHINAUD_000_056I considered that, and so I tried throwing a stone onto a potential platform to judge its integrity...
6766TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALPHINAUD_000_057But it never reached its mark. As it crossed an invisible threshold just beyond the boundaries of this island, it vanished, only to reappear above me, and fall at my feet. I would not be too quick to presume that what we see outside this space is as it appears.
6867TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALISAIE_000_058Which is why I returned to the *Ragnarok*, and asked the Loporrits to search for a potential path.
6968TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALISAIE_000_059However, the ship's instruments failed to provide conclusive data on the surrounding area. Until we know more, I think it too risky to attempt flying to another island.
7069TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_GRAHATIA_000_060What Meteion told us before─that emotions dictate reality here─might be the key. But I'm not entirely sure what emotion might manifest a bridge to lead us to safety.
7170TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ESTINIEN_000_061So what you're saying is, we've no way forward.
7271TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_YSHTOLA_000_062At present, aye. If it is indeed emotion that governs this island, perhaps it is not Meteion's, but the dragons' that holds us here.
7372TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_YSHTOLA_000_063They tire of conflict, and have chosen a path of oblivion to escape it.
7473TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_YSHTOLA_000_064Or rather, they have chosen no path at all. Meaning there is no way for the dragons, or anyone here on this island, to advance.
7574TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_GRAHATIA_000_065A sound theory, disheartening though it may be.
7675TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALPHINAUD_000_066If that is the case, what recourse do we have? They are not like to be persuaded to help us.
7776TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALPHINAUD_000_067Their reasoning is built on a history of turmoil and strife. Without irrefutable proof the future is not as bleak as they believe it to be...
7877TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_YSHTOLA_000_068Mayhap persuasion is not the answer.
7978TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_YSHTOLA_000_069Meteion meant to unmake us then and there on the *Ragnarok*, and she would have succeeded if not for Thancred's determination.
8079TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_YSHTOLA_000_070She conceded it was strong enough to overpower the despair that otherwise rules Ultima Thule, and reshape it to a degree. Perhaps it can be done again in like manner─by overpowering the prevailing emotions.
8180TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_URIANGER_000_071'Twas Ultima Thule's architect, Meteion herself, against whom Thancred did pit himself in a clash of wills. Though I marked no leader among them, as such, I did chance to encounter a dragon possessed of despair far more potent than most. Potent enough, mayhap, to dictate the course for others─and thus, their domain, to follow.
8281TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_URIANGER_000_072He spoke but few words, carefully chosen, their tone and timbre alone threatening to rend my heart in twain. Challenging his desire to remain may allow us to alter the island upon which we stand.
8382TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_URIANGER_000_073Alas, I fear my vaunted rhetoric availed me naught against his calcifying heart. But mayhap one of you will fare better...?
8483TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_URIANGER_000_074Then I shall guide thee. Al End, they call him, in the dragon tongue. Thou wilt find him nearby, eyes fixed upon the water.
8584TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALISAIE_000_075Well, what have we to lose? Let's get going.
8685TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALISAIE_000_080If I had known this place would claim Estinien too, I...
8786TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALISAIE_000_081No... No, it's what had to be done.
8887TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_URIANGER_000_085As by the beating of mighty wings doth wind blow, where dragons may ne'er again touch the sky, he and the shade he bore shall soar free...
8988TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_YSHTOLA_000_090Must this always be the price paid for safe passage?
9089TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_GRAHATIA_000_095The wind has stayed the fog that covered this island. And the air... It no longer feels quite so stifling.
9190TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_SYSTEM_000_100A confluence of wind has manifested before you...
9291TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALPHINAUD_000_110Look there! The wind...
9392TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALPHINAUD_000_111This is Estinien's doing. I'm sure of it. We should ride its flow, and see where it leads.
9493TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALPHINAUD_000_120Forgive me, Player, but could you go on ahead? I... I need a moment. To gather my thoughts...
9594TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_SYSTEM_000_130A powerful gale has delivered you to another island. The other Scions should arrive before long.
9695TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALPHINAUD_000_131He...he did it. He found a way forward for us.
9796TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALPHINAUD_000_132The dragons remain trapped within a prison of their own making, lamenting the horrors of war. Yet Estinien knew them better than most.
9897TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALPHINAUD_000_133He was a man of honor and a dear friend, willing to fight to the very end for what he believed was right...
9998TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALISAIE_000_134And he's still fighting, Alphinaud. Just like Thancred.
10099TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALISAIE_000_135Their sacrifices are why we can survive here. Why we still have a chance to stop her.
101100TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_ALISAIE_000_136Even in spirit, they're unwilling to give in to despair, and we mustn't either.
102101TEXT_AKTKMG106_04455_YSHTOLA_000_137Alisaie is right. We must press on. For their sake...
