Introduction

In a far away galaxy, lies a sun, orbited by 3 planets. The Gurhal system.
A place inhabited by humans, and their creations,
CASTs, Newmens, and beasts.
For 500 years, there was war among the races,
a seemingly never-ending conflict. Then finally...
An era of peace and prosperity that has lasted for 100 years.
But now, a darkness has awoken, and threatens the Universe.

Episode 1 Chapter 4: Rogues

Ethan's Room

(Cutscene) (Ethan is sitting by his window, staring out at the stars and deep in thought. After a moment, Pete floats over to him)

  • Pete: Ethan, are you alright? You do not seem yourself.
  • Ethan: It's nothing. Just thinking about something's all.

(The door chime sounds)

  • Pete: It sounds as though we have a guest.

(Pete floats off to answer the door while Ethan continues to stare out into space)

  • Voice: Aaaaah!
  • Ethan: Huh?

(Ethan bolts up and looks around the corner towards the door)

  • Ethan: What's happening?!
  • Lumia: Ethan, what is that thing?!
  • Ethan: Oh, hey Lumia... This is Pete.
  • Pete: Ethan, who is this... girl?
  • Ethan: My little sister, Lumia.
  • Pete: My apologies, Miss Lumia. I did not mean to alarm you.
  • Lumia: Ah ha ha.... It's alright. You're actually kinda cute. Did I scare you, Pete?
  • Ethan: So, what're you doing here, anyway?
  • Lumia: I can't believe you! You forgot?! You promised that you'd go shopping with me today!
  • Ethan: Ah... I guess I did.
  • Lumia: Now, hurry up and go get changed! You can't go out dressed like that!

(Ethan looks to his clothes and realizes he's still in his under garments. He chuckles, embarrassed) (End Cutscene)

(Scene: Ethan, Pete, Lumia)

  • Lumia: Well then, shall we go?
  • Ethan: Can you wait a second? I've got to talk to Pete.
  • Lumia: What? Are you serious?
  • Ethan: Sorry. You go ahead first and wait for me at the central table, okay?
  • Lumia: All right, fine. But you shouldn't make me wait too long. It's rude!
  • Ethan: Okay, okay.

(Lumia Exits)

  • Pete: Do you have plans with your sister today? You two seem to get along well.
  • Ethan: She is my only sister... But about that stuff I had you investigate...
  • Pete: Yes. I can answer questions about the investigation. Is there something specific you wanted to know about?

(Ask about Dr. Warren Daren)

  • Pete: There was nothing current about Dr. Darren in the database. According to records, he perished in the disaster at Mellvore eighteen years ago.
  • Ethan: Eighteen years ago? Mellvore?
  • Pete: The Mellvore Explosion.
  • Ethan: Oh right! I heard that mentioned on the shuttle ride to Parum. The mysterious explosion that wiped out the entire city of Mellvore. Is that the one?
  • Pete: Yes, that's the one. At the time, the government of Parum conducted an exhaustive search of the city's remains... but they still could not determine a cause. And today, the cause is still unknown.
  • Ethan: But... the doctor was still alive! (Where was he for those eighteen years?)
  • Pete: Actually, regarding the mission you went on the other day, there are no longer any public records of that, either.
  • Ethan: (What's going on here? I wonder... Could that Endrum Collective have a hand in this?)

(Ask about A-Photon reactors)

  • Ethan: What are A-Photons, exactly?
  • Pete: A-Photons, or "Advanced Photon Energy", is a new form of energy created by the crystallization of copolymerized photon partials. It is said that the crystallized form doesn't occur naturally. Currently, the technology required for pure processing includes a very large-scale operation and a high level of skill.
  • Ethan: Uh... okay. What makes A-Photons different from regular photons?
  • Pete: Photon energy utilizes an individual's spirit energy as an intermediary in order to output energy in physical and mental form. TECHNICs are a good example of this. In contrast, A-Photon energy doesn't utilize spirit energy. It merely outputs an extremely high level of energy. That is why, for the past fifteen years, we've seen rapid technological advances in large machinery, such as spaceships, that require vast amounts of energy. What's more...
  • Ethan: ...
  • Pete: Ethan?
  • Ethan: I'm sorry. My mind was wandering. So basically... What you're saying is... A-Photons are a new form of energy made from photons. Is that it?
  • Pete: Yes, that's close enough. When A-Photons were found within the RELICS, it was a major discovery. It means that the most cutting edge energy technology we have today was used thousands of years ago at the RELICS sites. In addition, they were much more compact and high yielding than what we have today.
  • Ethan: Yeah, but then... What happened to the ancient civilization?
  • Pete: We don't know. But ever since the SEED first fell... RELICS have been discovered with an increasing frequency. Thus, one cannot deny there must be a connection between the SEED and RELICS.

(Ask about Endrum Coll.)

  • Pete: The Endrum Collective is a division of the Alliance Military. Until recently, their existence was not public knowledge.
  • Ethan: Really...
  • Pete: Other than their goal of "RELICS preservation", their leader, Endrum Harness, has kept their actions classified. Even with the GUARDIANS information network, it's extremely difficult to get detailed information on the Endrum Collective. It is said that the Endrum Collective has been in existence for over thirty years.
  • Ethan: Aren't there any definitive answers? (I'm still really curious about the doctor's past, but... the way Karen was acting, I don't think it'll be easy to find out any more details.)

(Ask again later)

  • Pete: By the way, Ethan...
  • Ethan: What?
  • Pete: Is it proper to keep Miss Lumia waiting like this?
  • Ethan: Oh! I completely forgot! She's probably going to be fuming. I gotta go!
  • Pete: Be careful, Ethan.

(End Scene)

Clyez City: Central Table: First Floor

(Scene: Ethan, Lumia)

  • Lumia: You're late, Ethan! I've been waiting for so long!
  • Ethan: Sorry, sorry!
  • Lumia: Okay... You can make it up by spending LOTS of time with me today!
  • Ethan: Yeah, sure! So then, where are we going?
  • Lumia: Hm... All right... First off, let's go to the Clothes Shop on the third floor!

(End Scene)

(If you try to use the Elevator)

  • Message: Sorry, the elevators are out of order.


Clyez City: Shopping Mall A: Second Floor

(Approach Synthesis Shop before shopping with Lumia)

  • Ethan: It sure looks packed! Even if I wanted to, I couldn't get in there.


Clyez City: Shopping Mall B: Third Floor

(Try to exit to the fourth floor)

  • Lumia: There aren't any shops on the fourth floor.

Clyez City: Clothing Store

(Scene: Ethan, Lumia) (Ethan, bored, watches Lumia go from shelf to shelf)

  • Ethan: Lumia, are you almost done?
  • Lumia: Hm... Don't have it, do they?
  • Ethan (thinking): *sigh* Shopping with you isn't a very interactive experience.
  • Lumia: Oh, Ethan!
  • Ethan: Have you decided what you want?
  • Lumia: Not yet. There's nothing good here. Let's go to the Armor Shop!

(End Scene)


Clyez City: Armor Shop

(Scene: Ethan, Lumia)

  • Ethan: What are you doing, Lumia? You already have a line shield, don't you? You want another one? Well, I guess in these times you can't really overdo it when it comes to protection.
  • Lumia: Geez, Brother. Will you keep quiet? There's nothing good here either! Let's go to the Weapons Shop next!
  • Ethan: What? I can understand you wanting armor... but what are you gonna do with a weapon?
  • Lumia: Just hurry up!


Clyez City: Weapon Shop

(Scene: Ethan, Lumia, Store Clerk)

  • Lumia: Wow! It's so pretty! Hey, this one's cool!
  • Ethan: Hey, Lumia. Calm down! Can you even tell a good weapon from a bad one? And more importantly, what would you do with a weapon if you bought one?
  • Lumia: Come on, Ethan. Give me a little credit!
  • Ethan: Oh okay...
  • Lumia: But... Nothing here really jumps out and grabs me.
  • Store Clerk: Miss, if you aren't satisfied with out current selection of weapons, might I suggest you try one made to your specifications?
  • Lumia: What do you mean?
  • Store Clerk: The Synthesis Shop here in the city recently had their grand opening. You can combine raw materials and items to create new items.
  • Lumia: Wow, really? Thank you for going out of your way to tell me about a different shop!
  • Store Clerk: It's no trouble at all. Just be sure to give this shop another try, next time.
  • Lumia: Well then!
  • Ethan: Hm?
  • Lumia: Let's get going!
  • Ethan: *Sigh* Where to now?

(End Scene)

Clyez City: Outside Synthesis Shop

(Scene: Ethan, Lumia)

  • Lumia: Wow! It's crowded in there!
  • Ethan: It looks like they just opened or something. Hey Lumia, why don't you go check it out while I wait here?
  • Lumia: What?
  • Ethan: Well, I'm kinda tired...
  • Lumia: What kind of Guardian are you? All right, fine! I'll go have a look. Don't go anywhere, though. Okay?
  • Ethan: I know. I know.

(Scene fades and cuts back in)

  • Ethan: How was it?
  • Lumia: Well... By synthesizing, you can make all kinds of cute little items. But to synthesize something, you've got to have a synthesis kit.
  • Ethan: Hm...
  • Lumia: And kits are really expensive! If I bought one of those, I wouldn't be able to get anything else!
  • Ethan: Oh, I know! I'll buy you one of those kits.
  • Lumia: What!?
  • Ethan: It's perfect, and I just got compensated for my missions! Let's go buy your synthesis kit and we can be done with shopping for the day. I'm not really in the mood for shopping any more.
  • Lumia: No way! What would be the point?
  • Ethan: What do you mean?
  • Lumia: Well, that's another thing... Even if you get the synthesis kit, you still need to have a partner machine... like Pete.
  • Ethan: Really? No wonder there were so many Guardian customers in there.
  • Lumia: But forget that for now. You said you weren't in the mood for shopping any more. What's wrong?
  • Ethan: Nothing, really. I'm just not feeling so hot.
  • Lumia: It's not just today. You've been like this for a while now. You've had this sad look on your face. Talk to me, Ethan.
  • Ethan: The thing is... On one of my recent missions, our client died right in front of me. I couldn't do anything to help him!
  • Lumia: ...
  • Ethan: During that craziness on the Linear Line, when the SEED came, I helped out a few other people besides you... and it brought me this... well... "joy". I guess you could call it. It felt really great. That's when I felt I understood Father and his involvement with the GUARDIANS a little better. And that's why I decided to join them.
  • Lumia: I see.
  • Ethan: And so then I joined the GUARDIANS... and my first mission brought back that great feeling of helping someone. I felt a little bit like a hero. But during my last mission I realized that I'm not strong enough yet...
  • Lumia: Ethan:...Hold on a sec. I'll be right back!

(Lumia runs off into the croud)

  • Ethan: Huh? Hey Lumia!? Where did she run off to?

(Scene fades and cuts back in)

  • Lumia: Here you go... A present!
  • Ethan: Hey, what's this?

(Receive Synthesis Kit)

  • Lumia: I wanted to get you a present celebrating your joining the GUARDIANS. Sorry it's a bit late.
  • Ethan: Lumia...
  • Lumia: So stop being so down and start acting like someone who just got a great present!
  • Ethan: Lumia...
  • Lumia: You'll do just fine, Ethan. When I was trapped all alone on the Linear Line under all that rubble... I was so scared, I didn't know what to do! Everything seemed so hopeless. When you came and got me, you really were a hero to me!
  • Ethan: Well, I was desperate...
  • Lumia: And not just that time! Ever since we were kids, you were always there to help me out of jams. Father died before I was born so I never knew him. Everyone calls him a hero, though. I believe that someday you'll become an even bigger hero. Bigger than anyone else! You know, you can't help everyone, Ethan. But you can do the best you can. And if you feel like you aren't strong enough now, then what's stopping you from becoming stronger? Use this synthesis kit and make some strong equipment!
  • Ethan: Lumia... Thank you so much! I'll do my best!
  • Lumia: Good! I'm so proud of you, Ethan!
  • Ethan: Oh stop it, you're making me blush!
  • Lumia: I'm gonna head home now.
  • Ethan: All right, Lumia.

(Lumia waves goodbye)

  • Lumia: Tell Pete I said hello!
  • Ethan: ...

Ethan's Room

(Scene: Ethan, Pete)

  • Pete: Welcome back, Ethan.
  • Ethan: Thanks, Pete! Oh hey, do you know how to use this?
  • Pete: Ah, a synthesis kit. First off, plug it into my expansion slot.

(Scene fades and cuts back in)

  • Pete: Set up complete! If you have a synthesis board and the necessary materials you can synthesize an item at any time.

(Synthesis now available) (Synthesis tutorial)

  • Pete: Inside the synthesis kit, there is a practice board and materials.

(received item synthesis board)

  • Pete: Next, here are the required materials for trimate synthesis.

(Receive Sweet Berry and Ether Acid)

  • Pete: It is necessary to place the materials into the storage system. Don't forget!

(End Scene)

(When Selecting "Insert Board")

  • Pete: Which board to you want to insert? (You can insert up to 32 types.)

(When you chose "Synthesis" and select the Trimate board)

  • Pete: How many do you want to synthesize?

(When you finalize the synth)

  • Pete: Currently Synthesizing... Done! What do you want done with this item?

(Chose Inventory or Storage)

(Scene: Ethan, Karen) (As you attempt to leave the room the Ethan's comm will beep)

  • Ethan: Huh?

(Ethan answers)

  • Karen: Ethan, are you there?
  • Ethan: Wow, you never call me!
  • Karen: Our next mission has been assigned. Come to the GUARDIANS Branch in Holtes City as soon as possible.
  • Ethan: Gotcha.

(End Scene)

(Talk to Pete and Choose "Ask Again Later")

  • Pete: Karen is waiting at the Holtes City GUARDIANS Branch.


Clyez City: Guardians Headquarters: Fifth Floor.

(Lou)

  • Lou: It seems you ran into the Endrum Collective.
  • Ethan: You certainly are quick to learn of an event that has no record of ever occurring!
  • Lou: Indeed. I have my own private network.
  • Ethan: That guy... Who is he exactly?
  • Lou: He is someone you aren't ready to fight yet, that is for certain.
  • Ethan: Pfft, that's not funny!

(Again)

  • Lou: If you meet Magashi again, do not attempt to fight him. He will kill you before you know what hit you.

(Mina)

  • Mina: Welcome to the GUARDIANS, defenders of Gurhal's future! Mr. Waber, you don't look well.
  • Ethan: It's just... during my last mission, our client was killed right in front of me...
  • Mina: Really!
  • Ethan: I... couldn't do anything.
  • Mina: I can't really imagine the horrors you must face on the job. All I can offer is an ear for whenever you need to talk. If you ever feel the need, you can always talk to me!
  • Ethan: Thanks... I actually feel a bit better now. Well... off to the mission!
  • Mina: Your next mission contract is at the Holtes City Branch, okay? Be careful, and may the Holy Light guide you!

(Again)

  • Mina: Your next mission contract is at the Holtes City Branch, okay? Please cheer up. I'm always here if you ever need to talk.


Holtes City: Guardians Branch

(Sheena)

  • Sheena: Welcoming to Gurhal! All your future are belong to us!
  • Ethan: Ethan Waber, Ma'am. I'm here to start my next mission.
  • Sheena: Yes, yes, yes! Letting me confirm the GUARDIANS license. Please be waiting. It is finished being done. The mission instructor are waiting in the meeting room. In the inside part.

Holtes Branch: Meeting Room

(Scene: Ethan, Karen, Hyuga)

  • Karen: Today's mission will entail guarding the cargo of this train, the Milate 04.
  • Ethan: Do they really need the GUARDIANS just to guard cargo?
  • Karen: Well, the cargo in this instance seems to be rather precious.
  • Ethan: What do you mean?
  • Karen: I believe that the cargo contains artifacts from one of the RELICS.
  • Hyuga: Artifact... you mean an A-Photon reactor? Like what Dr. Daren was talking about!?
  • Karen: Yes.
  • Ethan: I was wondering this before... Finding that A-Photon reactor from the RELICS site... Is it really THAT big of a deal?
  • Hyuga: !? Ethan, you really don't understand, do you?
  • Ethan: W-Why? What do you mean?
  • Karen: It's not in my field of expertise so I don't know the exact scope of this, but... The A-Photon reactor is a new energy system that became a reality about fifteen years ago.
  • Ethan: Oh, Pete talked a little about this...
  • Karen: Artifacts with the same properties and capabilities were discovered among the remains in the RELICS of the ancient civilization. This has an extremely valuable significance from an archaeological viewpoint, as well as benefits for A-Photon research. That's why this sample holds immeasurable value.
  • Ethan: I see... That's about the only thing I understood.
  • Karen: If you have an interest in A-Photons, it would benefit you to study up!
  • Hyuga: Yes, Ma'am.
  • Ethan: Yeah, all right.
  • Karen: And one more thing. Recently there's been a lot of rogue activity here.
  • Ethan: Rogues? The space pirates from Moatoob!?
  • Karen: An A-Photon reactor by itself holds enormous value. Not to mention something as rare as what we've got here! They want it badly. And for that reason, the GUARDIANS have been called into duty.
  • Ethan: Okay. I think I understand our mission now. Let's get started already!
  • Karen: Wait, Ethan. There's still time before the Milate 04 is due to depart. And we've got one more person joining us this time.
  • Ethan: What? Who's coming with us?
  • Hyuga: Another scholar?
  • Karen: No, but it's someone you both know. Lucaim Nav, Chief of the Training Institute. Headmaster of the GUARDIANS Training School.
  • Ethan: Headmaster Nav? Hyuga, do you remember what he was like?
  • Hyuga: No, I don't really remember much about him.
  • Karen: Well, he didn't participate directly in your course drills so it's possible you never met him directly... ...but he is one strict instructor. You'd better brace yourselves!
  • Hyuga: Okay.
  • Karen: It's almost meeting time. Let's head for the central plaza.

(End Scene)

Holtes City: Central Plaza

(Cutscene) (Hyuga, Ethan, and Karen wait outside the Parum PPT Spaceport)

  • Hyuga: Huh, Doesn't look like anyone's here.
  • Karen: Well, this is where we're supposed to meet.

(Shot zooms in to show a hand grabbing Karen's butt)

  • Karen: Aaah!
  • Ethan: What's the matter?!
  • Karen: Someone just pinched me!
  • Ethan: What?

(The turn to see a rather old looking cast)

  • Nav: Heh heh heh. Slow reflexes, slow reflexes!
  • Ethan: Slow reflexes! What's wrong with you. You pervert!
  • Hyuga: And don't think we're going to let you off because you're an old geezer!
  • Nav: Heh heh he... Well aren't you a lively bunch?
  • Ethan: Come on! Let's turn him in to the cops!
  • Karen: Ethan, it's alright...
  • Ethan: We are not letting this old perv get away!
  • Karen: This is Headmaster Nav.
  • Ethan: Huh?! This old fart is the Headmaster?!
  • Karen: He is.
  • Nav: Who are you calling an "old fart"?! Well, Karen, you've lost some of your edge. You should have caught me. I'm very disappointed.
  • Karen: Y-Yes sir. I'll be more careful.
  • Hyuga: I never thought I'd see Karen have to suck it up.
  • Ethan: Oh man, I shouldn't have called him a perv...
  • Nav: Now, you two...
  • Ethan & Hyuga: Y-Yes sir!
  • Nav: I will be accompanying you to observe your progress. So, be sure not to do anything that would embarrass the GUARDIANS. Understood?
  • Ethan & Hyuga: Yes sir!

(Nav approaches Ethan specifically)

  • Nav: You must be Ethan Waber.
  • Ethan: Yes sir.
  • Nav: I see you're just as hot headed and precocious as your father was.
  • Ethan: You knew who my father was then?
  • Nav: Oh yes. He was a well respected Guardian. I expect young man, you'll make your father very proud.
  • Ethan: Thank you, sir!
  • Karen: Headmaster, we should be on our way.
  • Nav: Yes, we should! So, let's go.

(End Cutscene)

(Scene: Ethan, Karen, Hyuga, Nav)

  • Nav: Today's mission will be carried out while on a moving train. It goes without saying that there's no place to get off and no way to return to the city once it begins so make sure you are adequately prepared! When you've finished preparing, form a party with the four of us and we'll depart.

(Mission "The Milate 04" available)

  • Nav: When you are ready to add me to the party, either come to me directly or use my partner card.

(Receive Lucaim Nav's partner card)

  • Nav: I'll be waiting by the Linear Train platform gate in the west district. Well then, you are dismissed!

(End scene. Group dissipates)

(Talk to Hyuga)

  • Hyuga: Ah, Ethan. Headmaster Nav will be accompanying us this time, so I won't forgive any mistakes. If you mess up, due to joint liability it will have an effect on my mission points, too!
  • Ethan: Yeah yeah, I know. But the same goes for you. You'd better not trip me up!
  • Hyuga: You obviously don't have to worry about that.

(Again)

  • Hyuga: Don't waste too much time or it may have an effect on our mission points!

(Add Hyuga to Party)

  • Hyuga: To start the "Guarding the Milate 04" mission, go to the Linear Train platform. For Free Missions, go to the Flyer Base.

(Remove Hyuga from Party)

  • Hyuga: Don't waste too much time, lest it have an effect on our mission points!


Holtes City: East District

(Talk to Karen)

  • Ethan: What's wrong, Karen? Restless?
  • Karen: Hm? Ethan... No, I'm just afraid to drop my guard and have the headmaster grab my behind again.
  • Ethan: What an old perv!
  • Karen: Show some respect. With a mere touch, he can read your body's balance and condition for that day.
  • Ethan: Are you kidding me?
  • Karen: Nope. That's just one of the headmaster's many abilities. He really got me that time!
  • Ethan (thinking): What are some of his other abilities?

(Again)

  • Karen: It doesn't matter. In any case, Headmaster Nav should not be taken lightly. Don't drop your guard for an instant!

(Add Karen to Party)

  • Karen: Well then. I'll see you at the mission counter.

(Remove Karen from Party)

  • Karen: In order to carry out the Milate 04 mission. Hyuga, Nav, and I are all required partners.


Holtes City: Guardians Branch

(Lou) (After meeting Lucaim Lav, Lou appears)

  • Lou: This time you'll be guarding the Milate 04?
  • Ethan: Why do you always know so much about me? Could it be that you've got a bit of a thing for me? Hm?
  • Lou: I've got no such thing.
  • Ethan: Oh really?
  • Lou: Recently, the number of train cargo robberies has seen a dramatic increase. So be very careful.
  • Ethan: I will.

(Again)

  • Lou: Watch out for the red pirate ship.

(Sheena)

  • Sheena: This time your mission are on a train? I never roded on a train before. You're luckiest!


Holtes City: West District

(Talk to Nav)

  • Nav: I'm looking forward to seeing what you've got. But then, if there's no trouble, I won't be able to see that, will I? Hoohoohoo, well then? How about we work up a sweat with a Free Mission first?
  • Ethan: Heh... Erm... Well...

-(Again)

  • Nav: I'm looking forward to seeing what you've got.

(Add Nav to Party)

  • Nav: Great! I'll be waiting at the mission counter.

(Remove Nav from Party)

  • Nav: What's wrong? Aren't you ready for the mission yet?

(Start Mission "The Milate 04")
