*????: Hey!!! Hey! Please wait a second!
 	
*????: Yes, you!
 	
*????: Oh, great hero from the void, thank goodness you've come.
*????: Truth be told, we were prepared for the worst
*????: We didn't expect help to arrive so soon.
*????: The distress stone could take days before finding an exit in the Vortex.
*????: Possibly months or even years... to think help would've arrived so quickly!
*????: Elaina, stop blathering and look at that befuddled face.
 	
*????: Our dear guest just got thrown through the Vortex.
*????: Perhaps a proper introduction is in order?
 	
*Elaina: Ah, right. Where are my manners?
*Elaina: I am Elaina, a mercenary for hire, former Adept of the Light of the Grand,
*Elaina: master of the Arcane Arts, manipulator of time and space!
*Elaina: And here with me is Grandt. A fellow mercenary as well.
 	
*Grandt: … …
 	
*Elaina: What is your name?
*Elaina: right? Delighted to make your acquaintance!
 	
*Grandt: You're probably wondering how you got here, but that's not important.
*Grandt: The question is, why you are here.
*Grandt: Elaina and I, we're all that's left of a band of mercenaries.
*Grandt: The Gods have finally come for Elysia, just another kingdom to wipe off from the face of this land.
*Grandt: We have been hired by the King of Elysia to eliminate a particular target. 
*Grandt: Now, I am no stranger to monsters and demons but…
*Grandt: He… was nothing like anything I've seen before. Part man, part machine.
*Grandt: The look in his eye, neither that of a demon nor god. A mad beast in a suit of giant armor.
*Grandt: Draegar is his name, that is all we know of him.
*Grandt: Just one encounter, one night. 
*Grandt: He alone extinguished the lives of over a 100 veteran mercenaries…
 	
*Elaina: , I will not lie. We're fighting a war we cannot win. 
*Elaina: It is only a matter of time before the God's army overruns the Royal Elysian Army.
*Elaina: When the La Veda Republic fell, the King ordered his people to evacuate the city. 
*Elaina: He then ordered General Xenon to take Princess Estia to safety, the last of the Elysian Bloodline.
*Elaina: Only the loyal men of the Elysian Royal Army and the elite Elysian Guard have remained behind.
*Elaina: Surely you must be wondering. 
*Elaina: We're just mercenaries, why should we risk our lives for a Kingdom without any hope?
*Elaina: Grandt and I, we were born here. 
*Elaina: While we do spend most of the time away, Elysia will always be our home. A place we could return to.
*Elaina: I cannot stand by idly and do nothing while the Gods burn my home. 
*Elaina: Even if I do not stand a chance, I will make them bleed for it!
*Elaina: Please , won't you help us? 
*Elaina: Of course, we're not expecting you to do this for nothing. 
*Elaina: The King has told us the location of the hidden Elysian coffers. Surely there's something for you…
*Elaina: What? You do not want the gold?
*Elaina: You only wish to help us? But… I… we…
 	
*Grandt: I thank you , for your help.
*Grandt: If gold is not what you seek, there is little else we can pay you with.
*Grandt: The Royal Elysian Army is growing weaker every minute. Our mission will be to eliminate Draegar.
*Grandt: We fought him once before. He is powerful, but not invincible.
*Grandt: He bleeds like any mortal… that much I know. 
*Grandt: If you're offering aid, I shall not refuse it. Here's a map with the locaiton of our camp marked on it.
*Grandt: There are pressing matters we must attend to right now. Meet us there if you wish.
 	
*Elaina: Words cannot describe how I feel right now .
*Elaina: Thank you, thank you so much for helping us!
*Elaina: Please, meet us at Camp. I hope to see you there when we get back…
 	
*Tilith: !!! You're so mean!
*Tilith: How could you leave me alone at the Guild hall to finish up all that food alone?
*Tilith: And to find you acting all sweet and nice to that witch who was so obviously seducing you!
*Tilith: I heard it all! I saw it all! HMMPH!!! What do you have to say for yourself?
*Tilith: You owe me another meal, okay?
 	
*Tilith: Anyway, it seems like we're in another dimension… To be precise, the past.
*Tilith: For that little witch to manipulate the flow of time using the Vortex, she's pretty good… that much I'll give.
 	
*Tilith: But I'm still prettier! Right ? RIGHT???
 	
*Tilith: It seems we are standing right where the forgotten Elysian Kingdom used to be. 
*Tilith: There is almost nothing left written in the annals of history about Elysia, despite her being nearly as powerful as the La Veda republic and the Agni Empire.
*Tilith: We can only imagine what the Gods must have done to it…
*Tilith: Lord Lucius would never have allowed it to happen!
 	
*Tilith: Princess Estia and Sir Xenon were from here right? You do remember them, don't you? From that terrible tower?
*Tilith: It pains me to know what ultimately would become of them…
*Tilith: I understand how you feel , this could be an opportunity to save them.
 	
*Tilith: But we absolutely cannot change the course of history. Even among the Gods, interfering with the past is taboo.
 	
*Tilith: Princess Estia and Sir Xenon must face their own fate… Perhaps in this world it would be kinder to them.
 	
*Tilith: I can't change your mind, can I? You're going to help the mercenaries anyway aren't you?
 	
*Tilith: I won’t stop you, but please be mindful of your actions in this world. 
*Tilith: Here, take the distress stone. I've modified it to be linked directly to our world.
 	
*Tilith: See! She's not the only one who is a master of the arcane arts!
*Tilith: How do you use it? Simple! Just think of me as your shining beacon and then WOOSH!
*Tilith: You'll be back in no time!
 	
*Tilith: I'll be awaiting your return . Remember, you owe me another meal!
