Adventurer Story Episodes

Episode 1

Business Acumen

Young Man: Hello! Is Rena here?

110264 01 r05Rena: I sure am! Nice to see you again.

Name Tag: Eldest Blacksmith Sister Rena

Young Man: Can I get the usual, please?

110264 01 r05Rena: Certainly. Let's get that sword of yours sharpened. Now for the finishing touch... Time to drink your mana!

Young Man: (...I cannot get enough of that smile!)

110264 01 r05Rena: There, all done! You should think twice about getting it sharpened every day, though. You'll soon have no sword left!

Young Man: Well, if that happens, I'll just buy a new one!

120021 01 base portraitElder: Eh heh heh! This shop's weapons are more than you can handle, young'un!

Young Man: Leave me alone.

120021 01 base portraitElder: Eh heh heh! Well then, Rena, might ya take a look at m'staff?

110264 01 r05Rena: Of course. Have a seat. The metallic parts had started to loosen, so I tightened them up for you.

120021 01 base portraitElder: You're one in a million, Rena! Sure wish I could talk ya into marryin' m'grandson...

110264 01 r05Rena: ...Your grandson is eight.

Merchant: Ha ha! They do say the mind is the first thing to go, old timer.

120021 01 base portraitElder: Hmph. I'm in perfect mental AND physical health, I'll have ya know!

Merchant: Say, Rena. Any way you can push the price of this axe down a little?

110264 01 r05Rena: I'm terribly sorry, but that's as low as I can go.

Merchant: Aw, how can you say no to a handsome face like this?

Young Man: Handsome? You look like the wrong end of a mule! Now quit causing trouble for Rena and leave already!

120021 01 base portraitElder: The lad's right! You got no business bein' in a store without knowin' what the goods're worth!

Merchant: You two don't know the first thing about business. Now get outta my face before this gets ugly!

110264 01 r05Rena: All right, that's enough from all of you!

Men: Sorry, Rena!

110265 01 r04Renee: Rena! We've got a problem!

110264 01 r05Rena: Oh dear. What is it?

Name Tag: Youngest Blacksmith Sister Renee

110265 01 r04Renee: Ramona says she's run out of materials to work with, and she's suuuuper pissed.

110264 01 r05Rena: Ah, I think I know what she needs. She needn't worry—I saw we were running low and put in a new order. They're waiting around back.

110265 01 r04Renee: Oh man, you're a lifesaver!

110264 01 r05Rena: No, no... Oh, while you're here, we have an empty spot on the sword shelf. Could you restock it from storage?

110265 01 r04Renee: Lemme get Ramona what she needs so she stops boring holes in me with her eyes and I'll get right on it.

100001 01 r04The Prince: Looks like another busy day in here.

110264 01 r05Rena: Oh, hello Euden! What can I do for you?

100001 01 r04The Prince: Nothing really. I was just curious how everything was going, so I thought I'd peek my head in and see.

110264 01 r05Rena: Oh my. It's not very gentlemanly of you to be peeking on a young lady.

100001 01 r04The Prince: Er, yeah, I guess that came out wrong... Still, you DO run this place well. You're very polite to all your customers, and you see and address issues with stock before they actually arise. I'd pictured you being as laid-back here as you are the rest of the time, but you seem to run the place with an iron fist. ...Er, a KIND iron fist, mind you.

110264 01 r05Rena: I'm honored to hear you say... Hmm?

120014 01 base portraitMan: ......

110264 01 r05Rena: I'm sorry, please give me a moment.

120014 01 base portraitMan: Heh heh... ......

110264 01 r05Rena: Did something catch your interest, sir?

120014 01 base portraitMan: What? No! I mean, yes! I mean... I don't know what you're implying!

110264 01 r05Rena: Well, you clearly liked that dagger so much you placed it in your pocket. I'm honored!

120014 01 base portraitMan: Th-this dagger? No, th-this is mine! I've always had it!

110264 01 r05Rena: Do you not want to test how sharp it is? It can cut anything, you know... much like my own blade.

120014 01 base portraitMan: Okay, okay! I'll give it back! Just don't cut meeeee!

110264 01 r05Rena: Oh, dear! Dropping it like that will damage it!

100001 01 r04The Prince: You get a lot of shoplifters in here?

110264 01 r05Rena: Occasionally. No doubt he was hoping to make a profit on the black market. Ever since setting up shop in the Halidom, our weapons have become rather popular. So we must be careful that they don't end up in the wrong hands. After all, a weapon can be a tool for good or evil depending on who wields it. I don't want our goods to hurt people— I want them to be used by you.

100001 01 r04The Prince: By me?

110264 01 r05Rena: You and your fight for peace!

100001 01 r04The Prince: Ah, I see.

110264 01 r05Rena: I want you to make everyone happy... including me, one day.

100001 01 r04The Prince: Er, sorry. Are you saying...?

110264 01 r05Rena: If peace returns to this land, everyone will be happy—and that includes me, right?

100001 01 r04The Prince: Oh! Riiiight. Yes, of course. That...makes sense. Well, just leave everything to me and I'll make sure everyone can be happy again. But I'll need the help of you and your sisters to make that a reality.

110264 01 r05Rena: And we won't hesitate to give it! We'll make this land happy together!

Episode 2

Blade-Obsessed

110264 01 r05Rena: And...haaaaah! There. I've finished cutting the wood.

100003 01 r04Ranzal: Well, ain't that somethin'?!

110264 01 r05Rena: Hello, Ranzal! I didn't hear you there.

100003 01 r04Ranzal: Cuttin' up wood in mid-air is no mean feat. Especially with a blade. Real impressive stuff.

110264 01 r05Rena: I've swung weapons from the smithy since I was a little girl. So I know how to use all of them, although blades seem to come most naturally to me. I love being able to slice things up like it's nothing! Hee hee!

100003 01 r04Ranzal: Guess that's why it don't seem like no big thing to ya.

110264 01 r05Rena: Ack! I just remembered I'm supposed to help prep for tonight's meal!

100003 01 r04Ranzal: Can't wait to see whatcha do with veggies after seein' ya go to town on those logs.

110264 01 r05Rena: My mise en place will be done mise en FAST! See ya, Ranzal!

100003 01 r04Ranzal: Nope. No idea what that meant.

110264 01 r05Rena: Sorry I'm late!

100004 01 r04Cleo: That's all right. I'm simply glad to have the help of both you and Luca today.

100006 01 r04Luca: Just tell us what to do, boss!

100004 01 r04Cleo: Rena, can I have you peel the potatoes? While you're doing that, Luca and I will head to the vegetable garden and get the other produce we'll need.

100006 01 r04Luca: Have fun peelin' taters, Rena!

110264 01 r05Rena: Bye, you two!

100006 01 r04Luca: ...We're back! Behold my mighty mountain of veggies!

100004 01 r04Cleo: Yes, I fear we may have harvested rather too many. EEEEEEK!

110264 01 r05Rena: Oh gosh, I'm so sorry! I didn't know you were back.

100004 01 r04Cleo: It's...quite all right.

100006 01 r04Luca: The kitchen is no place to be swingin' a blade around! The heck are you thinkin'?!

110264 01 r05Rena: Why, I'm peeling potatoes, of course! Pretty good work, huh?

100004 01 r04Cleo: You have done a fine job, but that is hardly the point. Why are you not using the kitchen knife that is right by your side instead of that...blade?

110264 01 r05Rena: Because this is so much easier! See?

100006 01 r04Luca: She IS kind of amazing with that thing. But, uh, didn't you use that same blade to dice up a load of fiends yesterday?

100004 01 r04Cleo: She has used it to "dice fiends" for as long as she's been with us.

110264 01 r05Rena: Couldn't fight without it!

100004 01 r04Cleo: The kitchen is no place for a utensil that is dripping with fiend blood!

110264 01 r05Rena: Pffft! I wiped it off, you guys!

100004 01 r04Cleo: Enough! This madness ends now!

110263 01 r05Ramona: Boy, I'm starvin'! What time is din... Uh, hey there, guys. Why do you all look like you're about to fight?

Name Tag: Middle Blacksmith Sister Ramona

100004 01 r04Cleo: Rena is insisting on using her blade for cooking, so I had to give her a lecture.

110263 01 r05Ramona: Heh. Yeah, that sounds like my sister. Still, maybe try to go easy on her.

100004 01 r04Cleo: And why would I do that?

110263 01 r05Ramona: Because I remember when my dad told me about why Rena loves blades. Our mom was pretty frail and sickly while we were growin' up. Dad's work picked up around then, so he couldn't pitch in much. So that's why Rena started helpin' with housework at a young age. She was just a kid, so she screwed a lot of stuff up—but she tried her best. She'd ask Mom how to do somethin', then work at it until she got it right. And that's when she discovered blades.

100004 01 r04Cleo: I await with bated breath you bringing these two disparate plotlines together.

110263 01 r05Ramona: Well, we had a lot of 'em layin' around the smithy. They're sharp and light and easy to cut with. ...Ya know. Blades! Anyway, they were somethin' even a kid could wrap her head around, and soon Rena was runnin' around usin' blades every chance she got.

100004 01 r04Cleo: Hmm. I suppose if I look at this from the perspective of a child—and perhaps squint a bit—it makes a certain amount of sense.

110264 01 r05Rena: *sniff* Aw, that's such a moving story.

100004 01 r04Cleo: Stop crying as if this story does not directly involve you! *sigh* Very well. I will do what I can to overlook her...blade fetish. You may use your blade, Rena— but only within reason!

110264 01 r05Rena: Yay! Thank you, Cleo!

With Cleo's permission to use her blade secured, Rena set about to wield it at every opportunity.

Boy: Hey! That's MY apple!

Younger Sister: I wanna eat it, too!

110264 01 r05Rena: My blade can solve this! There! Now each of you have half.

Boy and His Sister: EEEEEEK!

Young Man 1: Your hair is looking pretty shaggy lately.

Young Man 2: You think?

110264 01 r05Rena: My blade can solve this!

Young Man 2: Wait, WHAT?!

110264 01 r05Rena: Ha ha! Looking sharp, my young friend!

Young Men: EEEEEEK!

Girlfriend: I saw you with some hussy earlier, and don't you dare deny it!

Boyfriend: That "hussy" is my sister!

Girlfriend: Oh, right. Because guys your age TOTALLY walk around arm-in-arm with their sister.

Boyfriend: She was just messin' around! I swear!

110264 01 r05Rena: My blade can solve this!

Girlfriend: Hmm... It probably can, let me consider my options for a second.

Boyfriend: Wait, SERIOUSLY?! ...Nooo, I'm sorry! I'll never cheat again! Don't hurt me!

110264 01 r05Rena: Ah ha! The truth comes out at last! ...And my blade can DEFINITELY solve this.

Girlfriend: No, I'll let him off the hook this time. But if it happens again, I'm coming to you.

Boyfriend: EEEEEEK!

110263 01 r05Ramona: Hey! Cleo said you could use that blade WITHIN REASON, remember?!

110264 01 r05Rena: Am I...not doing that?

110263 01 r05Ramona: Everyone is freakin' terrified of you now! If you start ruining relations with everyone who lives near the Halidom, you won't be able to stay here. You DO understand that, right?

110264 01 r05Rena: ...Yes. I'm sorry.

110263 01 r05Ramona: I hereby ban you from swingin' your blade around for a while.

110264 01 r05Rena: Whaaaat?!

110263 01 r05Ramona: There's an ideal tool for every situation... and it ain't always a damn blade!

110264 01 r05Rena: *sniff* C-can I still sleep with my baby?

110263 01 r05Ramona: Uhhh, we still talkin' 'bout the blade here? Yeah, I...guess that's okay.

110264 01 r05Rena: What about taking it on my morning walk? I can't stay in shape otherwise!

110263 01 r05Ramona: No. You'll scare everyone to death.

110264 01 r05Rena: Can I take it shopping? People always give me discounts whenever I—

110263 01 r05Ramona: ABSOLUTELY NOT!

Episode 3

The Wooden Box

110265 01 r04Renee: Heeeeey, Rena! I just found a wooden box in the storeroom—any idea what it is?

110264 01 r05Rena: Hmm... Oh, right! I found that in the attic when we first moved into the castle.

110263 01 r05Ramona: Hey, I remember that! We were in such a hurry to get settled, we never checked to see what was inside.

110265 01 r04Renee: I wanna knoooow! ...Can we open it?

110264 01 r05Rena: Well, I don't see why not. Let me grab my blade and—

110263 01 r05Ramona: You're still on blade ban, missy! I'll just open it like a normal person.

110264 01 r05Rena: Awww...

110263 01 r05Ramona: Wow, it's shut tight. ...HNNNNGH!

110265 01 r04Renee: *cough* *hack* Blech! There's dust everywhere! You should've opened it more slowly.

110263 01 r05Ramona: *wheeeeze* Yeah, maybe I used a bit too much force there...

110264 01 r05Rena: So what's inside?

110263 01 r05Ramona: ...Huh?

110265 01 r04Renee: It's a long, narrow package. Guess we should crack this puppy open too, huh? Lemme just... Oh hey, it's a sword! ...But a real crappy one.

110263 01 r05Ramona: Lemme see that! Rena, am I seein' things, or is this Dad's mark?

110264 01 r05Rena: This is definitely Dad's work.

110265 01 r04Renee: Whaaat?! How in the hey did DAD forge a piece of junk like this?!

110264 01 r05Rena: It IS rather shoddy work.

110263 01 r05Ramona: I'm guessin' it was one of his rare failures. See how the blade is distorted? That's what happens when your forge ain't the right temperature.

110265 01 r04Renee: Oh hey, yeah!

110264 01 r05Rena: I imagine it was either an experiment gone wrong or just a youthful mistake.

110263 01 r05Ramona: I'm guessin' he mixed somethin' into the steel based on the weight. ...What would you two say to us tryin' to reforge this? I don't think finishin' it would take too much effort on our part.

110265 01 r04Renee: No way! DAD made this! We can't just take a sword he obviously didn't intend people to find and mess around with it like a bunch of...messers!

110263 01 r05Ramona: Actually, I think he'd be happy if we made somethin' good from one of his failures.

110265 01 r04Renee: Failure or not, it's a memento of him, and we should leave it alone!

110264 01 r05Rena: Now, now... There's no need to fight.

110263 01 r05Ramona: Dad wouldn't want some failure to be floatin' around in the world—he'd want us to fix it and avenge his good name!

110265 01 r04Renee: No! We should display it just as it is!

110264 01 r05Rena: Ramona? Renee? Let's all take a breath.

Ramona & Renee: ...Sorry.

110264 01 r05Rena: Let's take this one step at a time. Each of you tell me what you want to do.

110265 01 r04Renee: It's one of Dad's works—I want us to keep it around to remember him by.

110263 01 r05Ramona: And if I was him, I wouldn't want some unfinished work dirtyin' my name. We should reforge it.

110264 01 r05Rena: I can see the logic in both points. And while I also want to preserve Dad's memory, I don't know how happy he'd be to have this sword in the public eye. But I think I have an idea that will make everyone happy.

110263 01 r05Ramona: You do?

110265 01 r04Renee: How? I mean, we can't do both.

110264 01 r05Rena: Ah, but we can.

Ramona & Renee: What?!

110264 01 r05Rena: Oh, you just leave it to me... Now both of you, please do everything exactly like I just taught you.

110265 01 r04Renee: Ancient sword, awaken from your slumber with a shine!

110263 01 r05Ramona: Be reborn in light before us!

110264 01 r05Rena: We pour our hearts into you!

Three Sisters: Time to drink your mana!

110265 01 r04Renee: Holy wow... It's GLOWING.

110263 01 r05Ramona: The light is...soft. It's like it's wrapped itself around the sword somehow.

110264 01 r05Rena: It reminds me of Mom and Dad. Yes, well, I think this is MUCH improved. We should display it in the shop. That way, we won't forget Dad OR the fact that everyone has to start somewhere.

110263 01 r05Ramona: I guess Dad was makin' nothin' but masterpieces at the end, huh? People used to say his swords could cleave the waves and his hammers could "rend the earth in twain." But way back in the day, he cranked out shoddy duds like this sword here.

110265 01 r04Renee: So do you think we're younger now than he was when he made this?

110264 01 r05Rena: We may very well be.

110265 01 r04Renee: So if we try really hard, we might be able to become even BETTER than him!

110263 01 r05Ramona: Maybe—but we'll really have to work at it.

110265 01 r04Renee: Great! In that case, I'm gonna start by being better than the two of you!

110264 01 r05Rena: I want you both to remember Dad whenever you look at this sword. Remember how he always strove to improve, never forgot his roots, and eventually became a legend.

110263 01 r05Ramona: I'll do more than that—I'll think about what he thought whenever HE looked at it.

110265 01 r04Renee: Hee hee! Probably something like, "I'll be damned if I ever make a piece of junk like YOU again!"

110264 01 r05Rena: Heh. Exactly. Those humble feelings are what make this sword shine!

Episode 4

A Sudden Proposal

120079 01 base portraitButler: Pardon us, madam.

110264 01 r05Rena: Thank you for visiting our store! New customers are always welcome.

Noble: BY ALL THAT IS HOLY!

120079 01 base portraitButler: We were hoping that madam might be able to repair this lance. Yes, quite.

110264 01 r05Rena: Well, let me take a look.

Noble: Such a beauty... Young lady!

110264 01 r05Rena: Yes?

Noble: Pray give me your hand in marriage!

110264 01 r05Rena: Okay, so that's one lance repair and one marriage proposal. Got it. ...Wait, run that by me again?

110265 01 r04Renee: I'm baaaaack! Hey, so who was the fancy guy with Jeeves the butler back there? Some kind of rich weapon nut?

110264 01 r05Rena: *sigh*

110265 01 r04Renee: You okay, Sis?

110264 01 r05Rena: That man just...proposed to me.

110265 01 r04Renee: WHAAAT?!

Soon, word that a wealthy noble had asked Rena to marry him spread throughout the castle.
The noble returned to the store day after day seeking Rena's answer...

Noble: ...Sweet Rena! Please do me the honor of becoming my wife!

110264 01 r05Rena: My apologies, sir, but without me here, our smithy would have no one to run it. I am afraid my answer must be no.

Noble: ...Darling Rena! Your constant rejections are like daggers through my broken heart! Please change your mind! Pleeeeease!

110264 01 r05Rena: What's that? You have a broken dagger? Well, we can fix that right up!

Noble: ...Beloved Rena! I climbed the highest mountain in the land and fought twenty dragons to claim the rare jewel that rests in this engagement ring! Please say yes!

110264 01 r05Rena: Oooo, sorry. I really like these gloves, see, and there's no way I can fit a ring over them. Such a shame. Toodles!

110263 01 r05Ramona: I'm startin' to think we're gonna have to tattoo Rena's rejection on that joker's face so he finally gets it.

110265 01 r04Renee: Aw, I think it's kinda sweet. I mean, he's not creepy or anything—he's just in love. ...Plus, he's super rich, which never huuuurts! But Rena seems pretty convinced this isn't the guy for her.

110263 01 r05Ramona: Yeah, maybe he's just not her type. Or...I dunno. Maybe there's somethin' else goin' on here.

Several days later...

Noble: Why, Rena?! Why will you not marry me?! With every rejection, my heart shrivels more—soon it will be naught but a blackened, empty husk!

110264 01 r05Rena: Umm...

Noble: Is there something you dislike about me? It will be changed! ...Wait, is it my hair? Do you not like my hair? Consider it gone! ...Jeeves, come shave my head at once!

110264 01 r05Rena: Look, this has nothing to do with you. I mean, not SPECIFICALLY you, anyway. It's just that... Well, I have a responsibility to look after my sisters.

110265 01 r04Renee: Wait, so WE'RE the reason you won't get hitched to Captain Richypants?!

110263 01 r05Ramona: Way to blow our hiding spot, idiot!

110264 01 r05Rena: Oh, dear. Were you two eavesdropping?

110265 01 r04Renee: Our underhanded sneakiness is SO not the issue at the moment! You can't get married because you think you need to look after us—no, to look after me?

110263 01 r05Ramona: Easy, Renee!

110264 01 r05Rena: No, I didn't mean...

110265 01 r04Renee: I can't believe I was getting in the way of your happiness... I don't wanna be some...some big fat BURDEN for you! Hmph. Seriously...

110263 01 r05Ramona: Found her!

110264 01 r05Rena: Renee, you mustn't just run off like that. You had me really worried!

110265 01 r04Renee: YOU'RE NOT OUR MOM! If you ever fall in love with somebody, Ramona and me are gonna be fine! So if you're into Mr. Moneybags, don't let us hold you back!

110264 01 r05Rena: I'm sorry, Renee. I didn't mean for what I said to come out like it did. But I'm still not going to marry him.

110265 01 r04Renee: But...money bags.

110264 01 r05Rena: I actually do dream of getting married.

110263 01 r05Ramona: Wait, really? ...Huh. I figured love didn't hold much interest for ya.

110264 01 r05Rena: Hee hee! Of course it does, Ramona! I think everyone dreams of love in one form or another. For me, what I want is to have a big, loving family like Mom and Dad did.

110265 01 r04Renee: Soooo...Richy McRichpants isn't that guy?

110264 01 r05Rena: I have a plan for my romantic future, Renee. I know what I'm doing— and right now, that plan involves staying right where I am.

110265 01 r04Renee: Is that 'cause I'm holding you back?

110264 01 r05Rena: It's because I want to see you SUCCEED. You and Ramona both have oodles of talent—and I want to support that in whatever form it takes. I just want the two of you to be happy. That's my honest goal.

110263 01 r05Ramona: So ya ain't turnin' that guy down because of us?

110264 01 r05Rena: No, Ramona. I'm just not ready to get married right now. Mom and Dad wanted us to be happy above all else, and that's a desire I share. So what I want—what I TRULY want— is to stick around and help the two of you find that happiness. I'm not pretending to be Mom. I just have a plan—an order to things. I wouldn't be truly happy if I pursued my own desires while yours were unfulfilled. Once you two are happy, I'll be happy— in fact, I'll be TRIPLE happy!

110263 01 r05Ramona: Huh. I guess that makes sense.

110265 01 r04Renee: Yaaaay! It's not my faaaaault! In that case, I'm gonna hurry up and become the best blacksmith ever so we can all be happy! Then you can find some other rich guy and I can come to your house and swim around in a huge pool of gold coins!

110263 01 r05Ramona: Glad ya have a plan all figured out, Sis. I ain't sure what form my happiness is gonna take, but I know I'll find it someday. So if ya wanna wait for that to happen, Rena, I'll try to make it worthwhile.

110264 01 r05Rena: *sniff* You guys are the best. There's no romance in the world that could give me what the two of you do. We've given our all to get here, and we ALL deserve true happiness!

Episode 5

What Matters Most

One day, the adventurers found themselves face-to-face with a warrior's worst nightmare.

120007 01 base portraitFiend: Hraaaaagh!

100003 01 r04Ranzal: Ugh, they're so damn fast... Eat THIS, ya chump! ...The hell? My axe is rusted!

100002 01 r04Elisanne: And my lance as well! These fiends must have some property that causes our weapons to degrade.

110264 01 r05Rena: Uh oh. Rustfiends.

100001 01 r04The Prince: You know about these things?

110264 01 r05Rena: They're well-known among blacksmiths. Their blood contains a corrosive alloy that can turn even the newest weapon to rust within minutes.

100004 01 r04Cleo: Then it seems we need a new plan. Stand down, everyone! We will use magic to defeat these foes! Blast! They keep hiding in the trees!

100001 01 r04The Prince: I've got this. Ugh! They're so agile!

100003 01 r04Ranzal: These things are a real pain in the keister. On top'a the whole rust thing, they know how to use the terrain to their advantage.

100002 01 r04Elisanne: If they were to enter the nearby town, they could wreak unspeakable havoc.

100004 01 r04Cleo: We must stop them here!

100006 01 r04Luca: Stay STILL, damn it!

100001 01 r04The Prince: Don't give up! We have to hold them!

110264 01 r05Rena: Hmm... Maybe we can coat our weapons with mana to make them rust-resistant. Here you are, my beloved blade. Time to drink your mana! Aaand...there! Well, poo! It's rusting anyway!

110265 01 r04Renee: How do we beat fiends if our weapons keep flaking awaaaaay?!

110264 01 r05Rena: It's almost like we have to defeat each fiend with a single-use weapon. ...... I have an idea. I'm going back to the smithy, Euden!

100001 01 r04The Prince: Please hurry, Rena!

110263 01 r05Ramona: Wait. You ain't gonna really...

110264 01 r05Rena: Yes! I'm going to bring back every single one of our weapons!

110263 01 r05Ramona: The hell you are!

110265 01 r04Renee: Yeah! Whatever weapon you use is gonna get totally destroyed!

110264 01 r05Rena: I'm open to other options if you have any.

110265 01 r04Renee: And you're seriously okay with ALL of our hard work rustin' away?!

110264 01 r05Rena: Ramona, our weapons exist in order to protect and ensure peace. So what's more important: that goal, or our hard work?

110263 01 r05Ramona: Well...

110264 01 r05Rena: There's no point in saving our weapons if it means sacrificing the town instead! Okay, I'm off. Good luck here.

110265 01 r04Renee: Wait! I'm coming with you!

110263 01 r05Ramona: Fiiine! Fine. I'll come with ya too. At least I can be there in person to kiss all my hard work good-bye.

110264 01 r05Rena: Thanks, both of you.

120007 01 base portraitFiend: Screeee!

100001 01 r04The Prince: We don't need weapons to fight! Raaagh! *pant* *pant*

100004 01 r04Cleo: Don't be daft! You can't defeat these fiends with your bare hands!

100001 01 r04The Prince: We don't have a choice! We have to hold the line until the sisters get back!

110263 01 r05Ramona: Here, everyone! This is every weapon we could lay our hands on!

110264 01 r05Rena: Our outdoor smithy is open for business! Let's start with this axe—I'll fill you with mana and make you shiny!

100003 01 r04Ranzal: Bwaa ha ha! NOW I can fight!

110264 01 r05Rena: Next we have a lance. Shiny, shiny!

100002 01 r04Elisanne: This is the infamous lance I sought to purchase from you earlier! Are you certain it is all right to sacrifice it?

110265 01 r04Renee: No price is too great to pay today!

110264 01 r05Rena: Keep bringing them out!

100004 01 r04Cleo: Let me take this chance to heal you, Euden.

100001 01 r04The Prince: Thanks, Cleo.

100003 01 r04Ranzal: I hope you like gettin' axes in the face— 'cause we've got tons of 'em!

100002 01 r04Elisanne: This is for all the trouble you caused!

120007 01 base portraitFiend: Graaaagh!

110263 01 r05Ramona: Next one!

110265 01 r04Renee: Keep it up, guys!

110263 01 r05Ramona: Rena's mana really did the trick— these weapons are actually effective!

110265 01 r04Renee: There's only a few fiends left!

110264 01 r05Rena: Good, because we're starting to run low on weapons.

120007 01 base portraitFiend: Hraaaaagh!

100002 01 r04Elisanne: By Ilia... Look how large that fiend is!

100003 01 r04Ranzal: It's goin' straight for Rena!

110265 01 r04Renee: Rena! Run!

110264 01 r05Rena: No! If I leave these weapons behind, it will ruin all of them!

100001 01 r04The Prince: Then pour all the mana you have left into that sword!

110264 01 r05Rena: Oh, this sword is... All right, here goes! Drink aaaaaall of my mana!

100001 01 r04The Prince: Wow, that glow is blinding! I think we're in business here. Take this, fiend! Blazing Circlet!

120007 01 base portraitFiend: HRAAAAAGH...

100006 01 r04Luca: You did it, Euden!

100001 01 r04The Prince: The sword is useless now, but it did what it needed to.

110263 01 r05Ramona: Wait, isn't that sword...?

110265 01 r04Renee: That's our memento of Dad.

110264 01 r05Rena: Yes... It supported us...until the... ve...ry eeeend...

100001 01 r04The Prince: Rena!

100004 01 r04Cleo: I think she is simply fatigued from expelling so much mana so quickly. She should be fine with rest.

110264 01 r05Rena: I'm sorry it came to this. Everything is gone. Our weapons, the sword from Dad... All of it. This was all my idea. I'm so sorry.

110265 01 r04Renee: Rena... We know it was hard on you, too.

110263 01 r05Ramona: I ain't gonna lie—it hurts to lose all that hard work. But it's a hurt we share.

100001 01 r04The Prince: If anyone should apologize, it's me. You sacrificed everything for us.

110263 01 r05Ramona: No, it's okay. Right, Renee?

110265 01 r04Renee: Yep! We just did what we had to do.

110263 01 r05Ramona: Rena was right as always— weapons are for achieving peace. And if they break when doing that, we'll just make new ones! Right, Sis?

110264 01 r05Rena: Thanks, you two.

100001 01 r04The Prince: Your thinking saved us, Rena. Thank YOU.

110264 01 r05Rena: Don't thank me; a weapon is only as good as its wielder. So if you guys need more, we'll be around.

Several days later...

110264 01 r05Rena: La la laaa! Every day is a busy daaay!

110265 01 r04Renee: Busy? We're SLAMMED! Your idea to start advertising as "the smiths who took down the rustfiends" was genius. I don't even know what to DO with all these new orders!

110263 01 r05Ramona: Renee! Quit flappin' yer gums and get ready for your bit!

110265 01 r04Renee: I know, I know!

100002 01 r04Elisanne: I'm impressed—they not only overcame the loss of their weapons, they used it as a fantastic marketing opportunity! Their willingness to cast aside their work for the greater good is the greatest weapon we could ask for.

100001 01 r04The Prince: Right. The rustfiends may have destroyed countless weapons... But they couldn't dent their hearts.

110263 01 r05Ramona: Okay, Renee! Make with the cooling!

110265 01 r04Renee: Here goes!

110264 01 r05Rena: And now for the finishing touch... Time to drink your mana! Keep up the good work, everyone!

Ramona & Renee: Right!
