Matsya 	If Mehvan fled deeper into the jungle, she and her child are in grave danger! W-Whatever are we to do!? Gods have mercy!
 	
Matsya 	But...how can I at a time like this? They could be dead!
Matsya 	So...if I allow myself to be overcome by this fear, I, too, might become a beast? I am not sure I understand, but I will do my best...
Matsya 	Fear...consume me? What are you talking about?
Matsya 	Then...I, too, could become a beast? I...I understand. I think.
Matsya 	M-Me? A beast? What are you talking about!?
Matsya 	Gods... So that is what causes it? Then I have no choice...I must keep my fear in check.
Alisaie 	I've seen to the wounded. How did the two of you fare? Did you find your friends?
Alisaie 	...I see. In that case, let us help you find the mother and child.
Alphinaud 	Before we leave, we must ensure the village will be safe in our absence.
Alphinaud 	Alisaie and I will patrol the area and search for more beasts.
Alphinaud 	Would you and Matsya speak with Elder Yeruvvet? Pray explain to him the situation, and join us as soon as you are able.
Alisaie 	We will save Mehvan and her child. We can do that much for Qerasaf...
 	
Matsya 	<sniff> It will not be easy... But I will tell the elder about Qerasaf...
 	
Yeruvvet 	I am heartened to see you both safe, but what of the family?
Matsya 	We found Qerasaf, b-but...he...
Yeruvvet 	Say no more. I understand. We have lost another of our dear friends...
Yeruvvet 	Qerasaf may be gone, but there is still hope for Mehvan and their child. Please find them, I beg of you!
Yeruvvet 	And if, in your search, you come across anyone else who escaped the slaughter, pray tell them what has happened.
Yeruvvet 	I will do my best to keep the villagers safe...and their spirits high.
Matsya 	Come, let us rejoin your friends at once!
 	
Yeruvvet 	Qerasaf and Mehvan married only three summers ago. The day their daughter was born...I had never seen them so happy. They did not deserve this─none of these people did.
 	
Alphinaud 	We encountered no beasts during our patrol, thankfully.
 	
Matsya 	Where might Mehvan have run off to? Think, Matsya, think!
 	
Alisaie 	I'm pleased to report that the vicinity appears to be beast-free─no doubt thanks to your earlier efforts.
Alisaie 	And with that, let us resume our search for your friend and her child. Where should we begin, Matsya?
Matsya 	If we follow Ksiroda south, we will arrive at Purusa, a temple. It is a sacred place where people go to commune with the divinities.
Matsya 	It's possible that Mehvan sought shelter there, and perhaps other villagers as well...
Alisaie 	Then it's settled. Matsya, stay close to me, all right?
Alisaie 	You two, take the lead. Keep an eye out for beasts and anyone in need of help.
Alphinaud 	Very well. We make for Purusa, as quickly as we are able. With me!
 	
Sufferer04414 	Th-Thank you... I thought I was done for...
Sufferer04414 	Hm? Mehvan? She is a friend of mine, too, but I have not seen her...
Sufferer04414 	She must still be out there somewhere, trying to avoid the beasts. And with her child, gods... Worry not for me─I can make my way back to the village on my own!
 	
Matsya 	[Player Name], wait! Purusa lies just up ahead, but something terrible has happened!
Matsya 	The beasts have come, and many have already been killed!
Matsya 	Alphinaud and Alisaie have gone to do what they can, but there are so, so many─more than I could count. You must be ready...
 	
Matsya 	I...I am fine. I will be safe hiding here. Please, you must help those people!
 	
Alphinaud 	Remain calm, and do not wander off! I will tend to the wounded.
 	
Alisaie 	Stay strong! We'll keep you safe─I promise!
 	
Balloon 	Graaaghhhaggghhhrrr...
Balloon 	No... No... Gragnghhh...
 	
Balloon 	Aieeeaaaaaagh!
Balloon 	Urk... Urgh...
 	
Popmessage 	The villager transforms into a beast and lunges towards you!
Balloon 	S-Someone...
heeeaaarlggghhhp.
Balloon 	No... Please...naaarrrghhh...
Balloon 	He...help...help meaaarrrghhh...
 	
Alphinaud 	There you are! How fare the others?
Alphinaud 	...I see. You've seen to all the beasts in sight? In that case, let's have everyone gather in front of the temple.
