*Seria: *Huff* *huff* *huff*
*Seria: Hey Paris. We should be okay this far out, right?
 	
*Seria: Can't you tell us what's going on already?
 	
*Paris: ...right.
*Paris: But I get the feeling that Lugina doesn't want to hear what I have to say.
 	
*Seria: Lugi is just miffed, so don't pay him any attention.
 	
*Lugina: Hah, so you can tell without even asking.
*Lugina: This broad used like an old rag.
 	
*Paris: Don't put it like that.
*Paris: All I did was place my trust in .
 	
*Paris: As for you, shouldn't you be ashamed of having fallen into such a petty trap?
 	
*Lugina: Why you...! Don't act like you know what happened...
 	
*Paris: You were planning to do the same thing I did anyway.
*Paris: Or am I wrong?
 	
*Lugina: Yeah...you're right.
*Lugina: If this dumb girl hadn't gotten me trapped in here with her, I would've made my move before you ever got a chance to.
 	
*Paris: Well, that's what you get for trying to use a girl as bait.
 	
*Lugina: Like she could be used for such a thing!
*Lugina: She ruined everything when I was trying to get us away from that demon!
 	
*Lugina: With her "Oh, look! There's some interesting ancient writing over here!" and whatnot!
 	
*Lugina: Then the darn thing turns out to be a switch to a pitch dark, endless hole!
 	
*Seria: How many times do you want me to apologize for that?!
*Seria: You just won't let it go, will you?! People don't like that kinda personality, you know!
 	
*Lugina: Fine by me!!
*Lugina: I don't care how much a stupid girl like you comes to hate me!
 	
*Seria: What did you say to me?!
 	
*Paris: *Sigh* We haven't met in forever and the first thing you do is fight.
*Paris: I was still in the middle of my story, you know.
 	
*Seria: Yeah! Stop interrupting her, Lugi!
 	
*Lugina: Ugh! Just do whatever you want already!
 	
*Paris: All right then, I'll continue.
 	
*Paris: I thought that Mora was suspicious, so I separated from her when we reached the ruins.
*Paris: Since I thought that sticking with her would make me fall into the trap you guys were already stuck in.
*Paris: So after learning exactly where the trap was located and how it worked, my plan was to come rescue you all together.
 	
*Paris: And in order not to sound too suspicious when separating ways...
*Paris: ...I had to put up an act for her before arriving to the ruins.
 	
*Seria: Wow, good job Paris. You're completely unlike some other people around here.
 	
*Lugina: ......
 	
*Paris: Seria, I actually have a few questions of my own. Do you mind?
 	
*Seria: Not at all. Ask whatever you want.
 	
*Paris: We were able to join up with Mora by agreeing to look for you guys together, but...
*Paris: ...why were you two with her?
 	
*Seria: Well, that lady told us that she used to be Lucius's servant...
*Seria: ...and then asked us to help her find what had been sealed away in these lands.
*Seria: That's the short version.
 	
*Paris: Find what had been sealed away in these lands?
 	
*Seria: Yeah.
*Seria: That's how we ended up here in the first place.
*Seria: Lugina heard something similar from Summoners' Hall, and I came along for the ride.
 	
*Paris: I see...
 	
*Paris: Well, there is one more thing I'd like to ask you.
*Paris: Why are you two working together?
*Paris: Lord Grahdens told me that I should ask you directly.
 	
*Lugina: ...?!
 	
*Seria: Oh, well that's because Lugina...
 	
*Lugina: Shut up! Don't say anything!
*Lugina: If you start trying to explain it all you're just gonna mess it all up, so leave the talking to me!
 	
*Paris: Is it really that complicated of a story?
 	
*Paris: If you don't want to talk about it, that's fine, but I'll start getting suspicious, you know.
 	
*Lugina: Oh whatever!
 	
*Lugina: It's not even that complicated at all.
*Lugina: That old geezer Grahdens tricked me, that's all.
 	
*Paris: Lord Grahdens...tricked you?
 	
*Lugina: Yeah...
 	
*Lugina: That geezer sent me off on a mission that lined up with whatever this broad was doing!
*Lugina: Which means she probably came to Ishgria all by herself...
*Lugina: ...so Grahdens sent me after her to keep her outta danger!
 	
*Lugina: Tsch, what a pain...
 	
*Paris: If it's such a pain, then why didn't you just leave Seria on her own?
 	
*Lugina: Wh-Why you...you little...!
 	
*Seria: Yeah.
*Seria: I never asked for your help, you know.
 	
*Lugina: I have saved you...so many times here already...
 	
*Seria: You have! And I'm very grateful, Lugi!
 	
*Lugina: Argh!! This woman, I swear...
 	
*Paris: I-I'm so sorry! Never mind!
 	
*Paris: I shouldn't have asked...
*Paris: But it seems like Lord Grahdens tricked us into this too...
 	
*Paris: B-By the way, Seria. You seem a bit different than before.
*Paris: It's like you're more easygoing, or something...
 	
*Seria: Yeah, lots of stuff has happened since we last met.
 	
*Seria: ......
*Seria: But Paris, you seem to have changed quite a bit yourself.
*Seria: And I don't mean just your hair, it's more like you've gotten livelier, or something…
 	
*Paris: He he. Thanks. Lots of stuff happened to me too...
 	
*Seria: I see... We've both changed our fair share then.
*Seria: Going through personal changes is really important.
**Stare*
 	
*Lugina: ......
 	
*Paris: Yes, I agree.
**Stare*
 	
*Lugina: ......
 	
*Paris: A-Anyway, let's get going!
*Paris: We have to prepare ourselves before Mora strikes again.
 	
*Seria: You're right!
 	
*Seria: ! Hurry up!
 	
*Lugina: Tsch. I could care less what they think of me, but...
*Lugina: ...that upset me a little...
*Lugina: I'll remember that...
