![]() S: Now that you mention it, we could always feel Gramps’ blessing back in Elysia. M: You can tell the Shepherd myth is a big part of the culture here. S: Whoa, no one told me the sanctuary would be THIS gorgeous! S: It’s humans who are creating the malevolence. M: It flows throughout the town before it gets here. M: This water has been affected by malevolence. The foundation looks pretty old, but the wheel itself looks new enough. With so many humans living here, they probably rely heavily on larger-scale machines like this. M: Grinding wheat, threshing grain, making yarn. They’re for grinding wheat with water power, right? S: Look at the size of that thing! Water wheels. Gramps said that once malevolence takes hold, anything could turn into a hellion. M: Don’t forget, it also means more hellions. S: A whole world filled with things I don’t know about?! That sounds intense.ly awesome! In the land below, there are tons of different types of plants and animals. I’m guessing a type of Parnassius, though I don’t know the exact species. S: And we can’t rely on Gramps’ assistance anymore. Never mind defeating him-whether we could even drive him off by ourselves is iffy. But we’re just a seraph and a human, neither of us with any power to purify malevolence. M: I want to avenge Mason just as much as you do. M: It’s best we avoid confrontation with hellions as much as possible. S: First off, we need to find Alisha and let her know she’s being targeted. M: Pumped? Well, mildly inflated, at least. S: It’s your first time here, too, isn’t it? Whaddaya say, are you pumped? But for now, at least we get a nice view. M: Well, don’t judge a book by its cover, as they say. M: I don’t get that impression, personally. S: Alisha said the world below is full of malevolence. M: Definitely a change from Gramps’ blessed domain. S: Check out that view! Even the air seems different somehow. There’s no better teacher-no more exacting taskmaster-than the humble prickleboar! S: But it was those days that taught me how to fight. Everyday, me and them, a never ending life-or-death struggle.Ī: You really are a child of nature, aren’t you. S: Hmmmm.I guess mine would have to be the "prickleboar school"! Isn’t there a name signifying the style? Your swordmaster’s name, perhaps. "Put it back." Guess you made it out of the nest on your own, huh?Ī: Sorey, your sword technique is. "A kept bird will never learn to fly," he said. I remember when one of ‘em fell from the nest, I was gonna keep it and raise it, but Gramps wouldn’t let me. S: Oh hey! There’s no baby elysalarks in the nest anymore. S: Yup! Sometimes they give me milk, and I make cheese and yogurt with everyone. They did kick me four or five times when I was little. S: Aw, don’t worry, we’re friends! Uh, well mostly. ![]() ![]() S: Hahaha! What, like in fairy tales? You’re something else.Ī: Don’t go near it! There’s no telling how dangerous untamed beasts like those are. I knew it was too good to be true.Ī: Such robust horns. M: Same as we did until just minutes ago. They definitely had assistance, whether from seraphim like me or someone else. S: In the past, any pilgrims who showed up at the shrine probably thought the gap was simply uncrossable. It stands to reason that they’d do what they can to protect the Pureland. S: They really didn’t want anyone to reach the other side. They definitely had assistance, whether from a seraphim like me or someone else. S: So like, the bridge alone might date from the Era of the Gods? M: I think this is beyond the capabilities of human technology. S: This bridge is incredible! How do you think it was made? S: So we’re not the only ones who go around investigating ruins! M: Most likely it’s a guidepost left by previous visitors to aid fellow travelers. M: Yeah, it’s from a completely different age. S: If I’m not mistaken, that stone is a lot newer than the surrounding ruins. M: We’ve had quite a bounty of discoveries today. This is turning into an eventful day for once. I can’t just leave someone who needs help. It’s a warning to invaders: Not one more step. We have her to thank for all the crash-boom-bang. S: That human probably got caught up in all the lightning just like we did.
