*Tilith: ...this place looks pretty crazy too.
 	
*Reda: Yeah. It looks like something is being purified here.
*Reda: But I don't know any more than that.
 	
*Reda: We've seen places similar to this one in Grand Gaia and Ishgria...
*Reda: ...but this one's on a whole other scale.
 	
*Tilith: I see...
 	
*Reda: ......
 	
*Tilith: ......
*Tilith: U-Umm...
 	
*Reda: ...I don't bite, you know.
*Reda: Yes, I may be a bit more...
*Reda: ...vocal than most Summoners when it comes to my opinions, but...
*Reda: ...I don't really have anything against you.
 	
*Tilith: It's okay... It's not like I'm scared of you or anything...
 	
*Tilith: Oh, I know! Why don't you tell us more about this world?
 	
*Reda: This world?
 	
*Tilith: Yeah!
*Tilith: You got to Bectas way before we did, didn't you?
*Tilith: You must know quite a bit about it by now!
 	
*Reda: Well, trying to gather any information on my own has been pretty difficult...
*Reda: ...so I've only been able to scratch the surface.
 	
*Reda: But...I guess now is as good as ever to share what I know.
 	
*Reda: I'm sure you probably heard this from Summoners' Hall before you got here, but...
*Reda: ...Bectas has managed to develop special techniques rarely seen in Grand Gaia or Ishgria.
*Reda: This world has mastered the Technological Arts.
 	
*Reda: We've seen equipment and technology possibly created through similar arts back in Elgaia.
*Reda: However, most of it has landed in our hands after crossing over from another world.
 	
*Reda: That's why I believe that if you follow the trail far enough...
*Reda: ...you'll find a lot of things that end up leading you here.
 	
*Reda: As it turns out though, evidence of that is not so easy to find.
 	
*Tilith: ......
 	
*Reda: I haven't gotten very far yet, so who knows what still lies down the road.
*Reda: But I'm willing to bet that there's a huge central facility out there somewhere.
 	
*Reda: If we're able to find it...
*Reda: ...we may be able to establish how the technology developed here relates to what we have back in our world.
*Reda: And not only that, but we could learn more about the history before and after the war against the gods.
*Reda: We may finally be able to unravel the mysteries surrounding all those otherworldly objects we've found...
*Reda: ...and the relationship they share with the heroes that used them.
 	
*Tilith: Wow...
 	
*Tilith: He he...
 	
*Reda: Wh-What? What's so funny?
 	
*Tilith: Well, it's just that I had no idea you were so into researching history and stuff like that.
*Tilith: Reminds me of a friend of mine. She's into that kinda stuff too.
 	
*Reda: Well... Now that you mention it, I guess it is fairly interesting work.
 	
*???: *RUUUUUMBLE*
 	
*Tilith: Wh-What's happening?! Is it an earthquake?!
 	
*Reda: Sorry. I guess I forgot to mention something important.
 	
*Tilith: What is it?
 	
*Reda: Apparently, this world is doomed to destruction.
*Reda: That earthquake is probably a sign that those rumors are true.
 	
*Tilith: Destruction? But why?
 	
*Reda: ...I have no idea.
*Reda: According to Lugina though, the destruction of this world...
*Reda: ...is only more proof that we're closing in on the power that facilitates summoning.
 	
*Tilith: What does that even mean?
 	
*Reda: Who knows... I sure don't. All we can do now is catch up with Lugina and make him talk.
