Three Paths - Metalworks
Cid: Player name! I was starting to worry about you! Are you all right?
Cid: I heard from Louverance that you weren't able to get the box back, but at least you're in one piece. Somebody up there is smiling down on you, that's for sure.
Louverance: Master Cid... Ah, and Lord/Lady Player name.
Louverance: I commend you adventurers on your efficient methods of transportation.
Louverance: After our ordeal, Tenzen and Ulmia made it back safe to San d'Oria.
Louverance: However, there are still no signs of Prishe...
Louverance: We can only pray that she was as resourceful as Player name here in escaping from the glacier.
Cid: Well, I have some bad news for you... 
A communications has just been sent out to all three nations from Jeuno... Prishe is wanted on criminal charges. The duchy has issued a warrant for her immediate arrest.
Ulmia: That is preposterous!
Tenzen: When Prishe sang her song, Selh'teus was able to escape... Nag'molada believes that Prishe and the boy are working together!
Ulmia: Prishe's song... 
The fourth verse of the "Memoria de la S^tona"... But where did she learn it?
Tenzen: I do not know... 
But one thing is for certain: We must find Prishe before Jeuno does!
Tenzen: We then can ask her of the song and of the Keeper of the Apocalypse...
Ulmia: Yes, and of Bahamut. 
What was she trying to tell us...?
Ulmia: How to break the pact with the Wyrmking...? 
How to remonstrate against his actions...?
Tenzen: The pact... 
When the Keeper of the Apocalypse arrives, Bahamut shall destroy mankind...
Cid: Destroy mankind!? 
You mean to tell me the conqueror of the skies, Bahamut, is planning a mass genocide?
Tenzen: Unfortunately, yes. And as far as we know, the Keeper of the Apocalypse has already arrived...in the form of the boy Selh'teus.
Tenzen: Sent by the ancients from the celestial capital of Al'Taieu, Selh'teus's coming is foretold in mankind's pact with Bahamut--and that is why Bahamut, too, has awoken.
Tenzen: And now the Wyrmking has begun calling upon his slumbering minions--he is forming an army to fulfill the pact.
Ulmia: We traveled to the den of the terrestrial avatar. However, he would not listen to our pleas.
Ulmia: His heart is stained with anger and there is no way to cleanse it.
Ulmia: That is why the only option left before us is to somehow break the pact... But how...?
Cid: Break the pact... Hmmm...
Cid: This can't be that hard... 
Let's think about it... 
Keeper comes...Bahamut wipes out mankind...
Cid: Keeper comes... 
Bahamut wipes out mankind...
Cid: Keeper comes... 
Bahamut...
Cid: Wait a minute! That's it! 
What if the Keeper of the Apocalypse never comes?
Louverance: ...! 
Then Bahamut would not have to...
Cid: I don't know if this what Prishe was trying to say, but if we can do something about the keeper, Bahamut won't have any pact to fulfill! Vana'diel will be saved!
Cid: The problem is finding this keeper...
Tenzen: But we already know who he is! The Keeper of the Apocalypse is Selh'teus! 
Capturing the boy has been our mission from the start!
Tenzen: It may be a nearly impossible task, but if we had the assistance of Carbuncle, bringer of rainbows...
Ulmia: Tenzen! 
If it is all right, I would like to try and locate Prishe.
Ulmia: Prishe has the ability to communicate with Selh'teus. Perhaps she knows something that we have yet to realize!
Louverance: I am going to further investigate the celestial capital of Al'Taieu. If this is where the boy came from, then there must be a path to return there.
Cid: Splitting up into three groups to find information on Prishe and the keeper... Why didn't I think of that!?
Cid: So what are you going to do, Player name?
:I'm going to...
::Investigate Al'Taieu. <----- Chose this option!
::Find Selh'teus.
::Find Prishe.
Cid: Louverance...
Louverance: I plan on traveling to Tavnazia to further investigate the celestial capital of Al'Taieu.
Louverance: It was the Tavnazian Cathedral that brought this name back from obscurity, and it is more than likely the place that Cardinal Mildaurion seeks out.
:I'm going to...
::Investigate Al'Taieu.
::Find Selh'teus. <----- Chose this option!
::Find Prishe.
Cid: Tenzen...
Tenzen: Player name, I journey to the La Theine Plateau in search of the wisdom of Carbuncle.
Tenzen: With the power and guidance of the bringer of rainbows, I believe we may have a chance at defeating the boy, Selh'teus.
:I'm going to...
::Investigate Al'Taieu.
::Find Selh'teus.
::Find Prishe. <----- Chose this option!
Cid: Ulmia...
Ulmia: Player name, I plan to begin my search in San d'Oria.
Ulmia: If Prishe truly did escape from the glaciers on foot, then that would be the closest city. Perhaps someone spotted her passing through.
Cid: True... 
If you happen to find out anything useful, come back here, and we'll see what we can make of it. That goes for all of you.
Cid: We're all on this boat for good. We may be in for some rough waters ahead, but you've got nothing to fear with good old Cid at the helm!
Tenzen: Understood, Master Cid! 
Now let us be off! We have no time to lose!
