*Noah: You're finally here.
 	
*Elise: Oh, . We've been waiting for you.
*Elise: It looks like Lord Owen wants to talk to you.
 	
*Owen: Noah, , you may not speak of the following to anyone else.
 	
*Noah: Well, that's quite the ice breaker.
 	
*Owen: , I'm sure you're already aware...
*Owen: ...but many of the seals found in Grand Gaia are starting to break.
 	
*Noah: What? You're just gonna cut straight to it?
 	
*Owen: ......The reason being that the gods are losing their powers.
 	
*Noah: The gods... You mean Lord Lucius's power? What's going on?
 	
*Owen: Details are best saved for later.
 	
*Noah: Which is code for "petty Summoners like yourselves don't need to know."
 	
*Elise: Noah...
 	
*Owen: ......
*Owen: Noah, Elise.
*Owen: Have you heard anything concerning Ishgria?
 	
*Elise: Umm...just a tad...
 	
*Elise: Some Summoners have been asking about it recently...
*Elise: They say it's the land where all demons are sealed...
 	
*Noah: Heh, I've heard the same gossip too.
*Noah: But it makes sense. The recent increase in all the demons around must be an invasion coming from Ishgria.
 	
*Owen: We don't know for certain whether this is an invasion or not. The motives behind the demon attacks remain unknown.
*Owen: However, there is no question that they present a threat to the human race.
 	
*Noah: Hmph, sounds like a pain.
*Noah: But Akras Summoners' Hall saw this coming a mile away, right?
*Noah: Otherwise we wouldn't be here.
 	
*Owen: Exactly.
*Owen: The Summoners of Old have been training Summoners to prepare for this very situation.
*Owen: However, our current problems are but the tip of the iceberg.
*Owen: We will have you continue fulfilling these requests to slay all demons for now.
*Owen: The battles ahead will be grievous, but I'm sure you will not disappoint me.
 	
*Noah: Hah. I guess the fact that the enemy's growing stronger as time goes by never changes in the end.
*Noah: , what do you think of all this?
 	
*Owen: Well, it looks like you've made up your minds.
*Owen: Elise, out of all our current requests, which one is the most dangerous?
 	
*Elise: L-Let's see here. Umm, this one, I guess?
 	
*Owen: If you would.
*Owen: Hmmm...
*Owen: That Grahdens, he's done it again.
*Owen: Elise, assign this mission to these two.
*Owen: And from now on, make sure to always assign them the most difficult missions available.
 	
*Elise: U-Understood!
 	
*Owen: I leave this in your hands.
 	
*Elise: Oh, Lord Owen! Never mind, he's gone.
 	
*Noah: Show me that request.
*Noah: ......
*Noah: The targets are Yugreia and another demon.
*Noah: I see...
*Noah: That means Yugreia will keep appearing from time to time.
*Noah: ......
*Noah: Looks like I've been given another chance to redeem myself.
*Noah: .
*Noah: You're a worthy opponent. Let's have another race.
 	
*Elise: Again with the same thing! Remember this time the orders are from Lord Owen!
 	
*Noah: He said for us to go after the demons.
*Noah: He never said anything about us cooperating.
 	
*Elise: Well, you may be right...but still!
 	
*Noah: Just get it done. I have to get going.
 	
*Elise: Wait, Noah!
 	
*Elise: Ugh!
*Elise: I have something to discuss with both Noah and Lord Owen...
*Elise: ...but the two of them left me hanging just like that!
 	
*Elise: *Sigh* This isn't the time for me to be complaining though.
 	
*Elise: , I'll process your orders here...
*Elise: ...so please take care of the mission, and of Noah.
 	
*Elise: I'll be waiting for your report!
