Cast
The Orastery, Scene 1
Hakkuru-Rinkuru : What are you doing loitering around here all willy-nilly? This is a training room for magic spells. If you're not careful, you'll get fried to a crisp...or worse!
Hakkuru-Rinkuru : What's that...? Oh, now I see...
You've volunteered to help us with the magic experiment in the Horutoto Ruins, have you? That's right. We did ask the goon platoon gatehouse for assistance.
Hakkuru-Rinkuru : Hey, Kuroido-Moido! That was the minister's pellmell experiment, wasn't i?
Kuroido-Moido : Yeah, the minister headed off hours ago. Said he had some preparations to do, or something like that...
Hakkuru-Rinkuru : Tsk... <Sigh>
Typical of the minister to ask for assistance and leave before the help comes. That's gone and put this poor hoddy-doddy adventurer out...
Kuroido-Moido : I know, I know...
Our minister is so self-centarued. He thinks of nothing but himself...
Kuroido-Moido : Well anyway, it'd probably look better for you to head on over to the magic towers in East Sarutabaruta.
Hakkuru-Rinkuru : Really?
I don't think it matters if your first impression with hoity-toity old him is good or not. Either way, it won't get you into his good books, will it?
Hakkuru-Rinkuru : Anyway, head out to the eastern magic tower of the Horutoto Ruins. It's a fair way, and an itsy-bitsy bit dangerous, so you might want to take some friends with you.
Hakkuru-Rinkuru : Good luck!
(You'll need it...)
Inner Horutoto Ruins
This cutscene can be viewed in-game by talking to Ramblix at the Goblin Footprint in the Inner Horutoto Ruins (Inner Horutoto Ruins Experiment).
Apururu : ...But everyone says the same thing, Brother!
Why, oh why, won't you listen to what I'm trying to tell you?
Apururu : At long last, we've achieved peace. Why risk destroying it?
Apururu : Behind your backy-wacky, some people say that you're setting out to start a war!
Apururu : What's more, you know that this laboratory in the Horutoto Ruins is off-limits...?
Ajido-Marujido : Whataru do they know!?
Ajido-Marujido : And you, Apururu, my own sistaru...!
Can'taru you see the truth behind all this?
Ajido-Marujido : Why do you think they all fear war, but won't lift a finger-winger to do anything about it?
Ajido-Marujido : They all say that Windurst has "peace and security, peace and security," but do you really-weally think our country has peace?
Ajido-Marujido : The wounds the Orastery received from the war haven't healed, even after twenty-odd years.
The best of the War Warlock mages are dying off, unable to train new, younger replacementarus.
Ajido-Marujido : Just imagine what would happen if war broke out again. Windurst would be obliterated in an instantaru. That's why...that's why we need some grand new magic...
Apururu : But what about the Star Sibyl...?
Ajido-Marujido : Yes, and what about her...?
What was the reason she forbade the very magic I seek? If they could have controlled that magic properly, then we wouldn't have had to buddy-buddy with the beastmen in the first place!
Ajido-Marujido : Sure, the spell-weaver died, but the magic itself was a great success...
Apururu : Only you, my dear brother, would call such a great tragedy a success...
Apururu : The "Mastermind of the Millennium" met such a tragic fate...so what chance would a faker-waker genius like you stand, Ajido-Marujido?
Ajido-Marujido : Humph. Say whataru you like.
A genius is never accepted by the world in his own time. If you've just come here to whinge and whine, then off with you! Go on, getaru!
Apururu : Well, I've tried my hardest to convince you...
Now I don't care what happens to you anymore, Brother!
Apururu : Don't come crying to me if you get yourself killed!
Ajido-Marujido : Oi! Who's that over there?
Ajido-Marujido : Ah...? What's thataru, you say?
A wanna-be newbie adventurer, huh? So you're the one they sent to help me with my experiment...?
Ajido-Marujido : Well, you're too latey-watey!
The experiment is over.
This gizmo just broke down again...
Ajido-Marujido : And then my pesky little sistaru wandered in just to add insult to injury!
Ajido-Marujido : Phew... Well, I've had enough for one day. I'm headed home.
Seeing as you've come all this way, I'd hate for you to go home empty-handed, so here's a little job for you.
Ajido-Marujido : On your way here, you probably noticed the glowing receptacle gizmos here and there, didn'taru you?
Well, inside each of them, there's a magical ball called a "Mana Orb."
Ajido-Marujido : I think one of those Mana Orbs was broken when my experiment failed just now. Your job is to find the broken sphere and take it back to the Orastery.
Ajido-Marujido : Oh, and one more thing...
Don't go blabbing about what you just heard here, all rightaru?
