Dialogue
Gilberta
It's here...
Gilberta
The rift really affected the environment. Look at the floating rocks... No one knows when they will start falling back to the ground. The UWST can only seal this place off for now.
Gilberta
We can only pray that time can heal these wounds...
Gilberta
Oh, Endmin, the Blight seems to get worse the deeper we go. There might be enemies active nearby. We'd better be careful.
Radio
Gilberta
This entire place is now a ruin... It's so upsetting.
Gilberta
Here's a spark of Arts to save the day!
Gilberta
Messengers always deliver!
4 Look for the filter No map marker available
Dialogue
Gilberta
More enemies might be hiding nearby... Endmin, we gotta keep going!
Gilberta
Hehe. I thought of a clever solution along the way. Alright, Endmin... Close your eyes.
Gilberta
Ah-ah. No peeking. I'm giving you a surprise!
Radio
Gilberta
Careful. There's Blight everywhere.
Gilberta
Look out! Over there!
Gilberta
What is this...? Did someone leave this behind?
Gilberta
The name part has been blacked out...
Gilberta
Whoever left this here seems like a lost soul...
5 Look for the filter No map marker available
Radio
Gilberta
Endmin, ever tried living in low gravity?
Gilberta
Heehee. Takes getting used to, right?
6 Look for the filter No map marker available

M
Miguel
Ropp? He's on the bed way inside this medical bay. And please be quiet. Our patients really need to rest.
R
Ropp
(Unintelligible mumbling)
Gilberta
He seems to be in great pain... I hope there's something we can do for him.
M
Miguel
About a week. We rescued him just outside the Æther Test Site.
M
Miguel
A few personal belongings, ID card, gloves ... and that sort of stuff. Nothing out of the ordinary.
Gilberta
Endmin, maybe we should leave for a while...
Gilberta
......
Gilberta
Yeah... I feel like I haven't really helped those who are suffering...
Gilberta
Endmin, if only I were stronger ... or faster ... I could have arrived at the Valley sooner...
Gilberta
Okay, Endmin. I've made up my mind! I'm gonna look for the filter!
Gilberta
You gotta let me do something. I can't just sit around feeling bad and helpless all day.
Gilberta
No. That still sounds sad and depressed —
Gilberta
Alright! I'm doing this because I want to help everyone!
S
Serious Monitor (UWST Site Monitor)
Ah, it's the Endministrator! And Miss Gilberta.
S
Serious Monitor (UWST Site Monitor)
Hold on. You're going in?
S
Serious Monitor (UWST Site Monitor)
For one thing... The site is still quite dangerous. Our rescue teams can hardly carry out their work in there.
Gilberta
But I have to go in and find a piece of very important machinery.
S
Serious Monitor (UWST Site Monitor)
If you insist ... but do you really have to go in there?
S
Serious Monitor (UWST Site Monitor)
Yeah ... well ... since the Endmin said so...
S
Serious Monitor (UWST Site Monitor)
Fine. I'll grant you passage... But as part of our safety precautions, do not stay in there for more than 60 minutes, even if you fail to find your thing. Nothing personal. Just trying to keep you safe.
Gilberta
Endmin, my analyzer can detect residual Blight extracts in the filter. This will give us an approximate location of the device. Andre gave me the analyzer before I left for this search.
Gilberta
The analyzer has identified several potential locations. I'm sending you the data.
Gilberta
Hmm... I think we should look around this place first. Use the scanner. We should find something!
Gilberta
Wherever I look, I see nothing but these horrifying wounds...
Gilberta
This land has been torn apart. People have lost their loved ones, their friends, and even their dreams... Their hearts, too, have been torn into pieces.
Gilberta
This world has always been so delicate and fragile. It's like a fine, downy feather ... and also like a polluted orb of glass...
Gilberta
I'm alright, Endmin.
Gilberta
I was just thinking ... if we fail to value what we have, those sweet moments might slip right through our fingers.
Gilberta
Endmin, I want to...
Gilberta
Oh no, these rocks are coming loose! Endmin, the Æther anomaly is shifting. This place is getting dangerous... We should leave quickly.
Gilberta
Let's go!
Gilberta
Let's get out of here.
Gilberta
Cameras? So, you weren't just running away from the needles because you were scared.
C
Carly
The security guard gave me his old camera. He also told me I'll become a great photographer!
C
Carly
Hngh... But ... I can't even take a proper photo...
C
Carly
What photo should I take...? I don't know...
C
Carly
My rock photos look ugly. My Originium Slug photos look ugly... The long-ears kept jumping around ... and all my photos ended up super blurry...
Gilberta
Maybe try snapping things you like, Carly. It'll be fun!
C
Carly
What do I like...? I like you, Miss Gilberta!
Gilberta
Oh! I like you as well, Carly!
C
Carly
Oh! I wanna do that! But ... all my photos look ugly...
Gilberta
Hmm... Once we take the photo, you'll be super brave and get your injection, okay?
C
Carly
Okay! Photo first! Then we'll head back for the injection!
Gilberta
So... Endmin... Can I ask you for a little favor?
C
Carly
Haha! Liar, liar, pants on fire! You're just the Endmin!
C
Carly
I ... I wanna be in the same photo as Miss Gilberta! That'd be super good!
Gilberta
Carly, if you want pretty photos, why not snap things you like?
Gilberta
And I know you like orange juice, Dozy the Plush, and visiting the gramps and grannies at the Worker Dorms.
Gilberta
We can go around and look for things you like, Carly. Photography is our way of recording beautiful things into snapshots of precious memories.
C
Carly
Beautiful things... Ah! I know what I wanna take a photo of!
C
Carly
I'm gonna get my injection! And I'll take photos of my friends being brave!
Gilberta
Heheh! You're just as brave as your friends, Carly.
C
Carly
Heehee, thank you, Miss Gilberta! And you too, Endmin!
Gilberta
Not really... Ah! No! What I meant was ... I really like photos but...
Gilberta
I ... I was just thinking about what I said to Carly. I told her to find things she likes...
Gilberta
But I'm in a heap of a mess myself... I can't even figure out what to write...
Gilberta
And I never found the courage...
Gilberta
Oh! Nothing! It's just a letter...
Gilberta
Let's ... let's just talk about something else, Endmin. Why don't we look around and see if anyone needs help?
C
Carly
Wow! This is such a pretty photo...
C
Carly
Endmin! Please teach me how to make the photos look pretty like this.
Gilberta
This isn't it. It's not here.
Gilberta
You're feeling much lighter, right? Let's hop on or they'll really catch up with us.
Gilberta
Endmin, over here!
Gilberta
Is this ... a UWST safe? Perhaps the filter we're looking for is right inside.
M
Miguel
Little Carly must've bounced back — she's been running all over the place! She was just here, and now she's gone again.
M
Miguel
Carly loves playing hide and seek. Gilberta, would you mind playing along and finding her for us?
Gilberta
No problem!
Gilberta
There's some liquid here. *Sniff, sniff*. Hmm. Smells like Carly's favorite orange juice. She probably spilled her drink. Let's try scanning the place, Endmin.
Gilberta
Found you, Carly! I win!
C
Carly
I don't want needles! I wanna play with cameras!
Gilberta
Incredible, right? Nothing can stop a Messenger!
Gilberta
Just imagine yourself as a kite, and feel the ephemeral link between your body and the land.
Gilberta
Heheh. And that is the trick of flying.
Gilberta
Look at the camera, say cheese!
C
Carly
Cheese!
