I think it's better to park Tata here before we figure out what's going on inside.

Cradle of the Ages... Do we really have an awakened Aggelos in that place?
Perlica
We've seen many signs and they're not exactly good news. Nefarith won't deploy those Ankhors here if she doesn't have a good reason.
Perlica
Nevertheless, I have faith in our Endmin. We'll definitely overcome this challenge.
Perlica
I didn't expect this. The stump of the Great Oak turned out to be a huge hollowed area.
Perlica
These Originium formations seem incredibly ordered. There's a sense of bizarre beauty to them...

Perlica
Thank goodness you impaled and immobilized it, Endministrator...
Perlica
All of these Originium formations and the Great Oak itself are responding to the Endmin's command.

Chen Qianyu
Look. A sapling just sprouted from the ground!
Perlica
Indeed. Just like the sapling nurtured by Granny Jenner in the camp.
Perlica
It sprouted from the heart of this Great Oak's stump. I believe the tree has answered your call, Endministrator.
Chen Qianyu
Does that mean the Great Oak lives again? This is like the best thing ever! It's gonna make everyone in Camp so happy!
Radio
Chen Qianyu
That thing we fought... It's probably the Aggelos that Jenner and her people kept talking about, right?
Perlica
Yes... And we're fortunate it wasn't at its peak state.
Perlica
If it had fully awakened, that battle might have turned out differently...
Chen Qianyu
These Originium formations look really natural.
Perlica
Someone must have excavated this tunnel, but it has been neglected for years. Nearby Originium naturally grew into the empty space.

Chen Qianyu
We've finally reached the end of it!
Chen Qianyu
Wow! Just look at this place...
Perlica
According to the earlier records, these formations were probably created during that explosion.
Perlica
It was the only option they had. It left a wound that never healed, even to this day.
Chen Qianyu
I guess fate brought everything together!
Perlica
After all these years, this place has returned to what it looked like before the Originium Oak. No one could have foreseen this.
Perlica
Endmin, your past self left a choice here.
Perlica
That past self probably did not realize that, after all these years, the same choice would create a path for us on this day...
Perlica
So yes, fate has indeed brought everything together.
Perlica
But ... there were times when I felt that everything was just...
Perlica
Well, nothing much, I guess.
Perlica
Let's get moving, Endmin.
Perlica
Simply unimaginable... To think that such resplendent beauty lies beneath the scar.

Endmin, our intel office has something new for you.
Fiona the Comms Officer
The Æther Rift is getting less stable. Perhaps awakening the giant Aggelos was part of Nefarith's plan to delay us.
Fiona the Comms Officer
She's aiming for the Æther Test Site. It's probably another trap she's preparing for you, Endmin.
Fiona the Comms Officer
Just be careful out there, team!
