Perlica

Endmin, we're getting closer to Nefarith...

Perlica

A terrible battle may be inevitable... We should be fully prepared before we approach the Landbreakers.

Chen Qianyu

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

Hmm...

Perlica

...Oh, Endmin... I'm sorry. I was just ... thinking about a few things.

Perlica

Yes, I was... I was thinking about how to dissuade you from taking on further risks...

Perlica

Yes... And we might be facing powerful enemies like that in the future... I'm trying to think of a way to guarantee your safety.

Perlica

I don't have any ideas right now... But I'll try to come up with one after we solve the crisis on our hands.

Radio

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.

Tata! Are you fully juiced and ready to go? Let's take a photo together!

Chen Qianyu

Of course it's meaningful! Look at this place! It's like the prettiest place for miles around! We gotta take a picture or this would be one wasted trip!

Tata (TA Prototype)

*Happy emote*

Chen Qianyu

Totally! Now let me think of a proper pose... Hmm. This gesture looks great... Maybe I can use another pose...

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...

Fiona the Comms Officer

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!

Perlica

Ready to go, Endmin?

Perlica

Alright then. Let's roll, team.

Perlica

Sure. I also believe we should rest here for a while. Let's move out once everyone's ready.

Radio

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.
