## Event Dialogue

### Chapter 1

* Fox
* Envier
* Demoness
* Mirage
* Mary
Fox

**Fox:** Lord Protector! At last you are in the Lower Worlds!

**Lord Protector:** Hello to you, too, Mi. How did we even get to the Lower Worlds?

**Fox:** You'll know soon enough. Hopefully, here you'll be punished for everything you've done. And I'm happy to be a part of it!

**Lord Protector:** I don't understand anything. But I think it won't get to this. If only because I don't plan on staying here.

...

**Lord Protector:** Where did you disappear to? I wouldn't mind having an explanation.

**Lord Protector:** Okay, anyway I'll try to get out of here. Lower Worlds aren't the quietest place on Halloween Eve.

Envier

**Envier:** Welcome to the Lower Worlds, Lord Protector!

**Lord Protector:** I wonder if all my ill-wishers have been gathered here. I just saw Mi and now there is you...

**Lord Protector:** Also waiting for the time when I get what I deserve?

**Envier:** It would be nice. But since you're here I could get even with you myself!

...

**Lord Protector:** Mary, wait... I never had the chance to explain myself back then.

**Lord Protector:** And she's gone, too. There's something strange going on here...

Demoness

**Demoness:** Greetings, Lord Protector!

**Lord Protector:** Gremory! I think I'm beginning to understand what's happening. Did you summon me to the Lower Worlds?

**Demoness:** That's right. You can't get out on your own, so I suggest you listen to me first.

**Lord Protector:** That's for me to decide! I wasn't planning on sticking around.

...

**Demoness:** Still, you'll have to stick around. Halloween is the best time to face your fears and conquer them, isn't it?

**Lord Protector:** I don't think so.

**Demoness:** Mi and Mary are just a delusion, but they represent your fears.

**Demoness:** And unless you acknowledge them, you can't get out of here.

**Lord Protector:** How dare you!

Mirage

**Lord Protector:** At least now I know that you don't really exist.

**Mirage:** But my hatred for you is very real!

...

**Mirage:** That terrible fire in the Enchanted Forest happened because of you!

**Mirage:** Nearly all my skulk died then. I'll never forgive you for that.

Mary

**Mary:** You don't look as brave as usual. Even the Lord Protector is not so strong in the face of fear.

**Lord Protector:** You're wrong! Let's end all this already.

...

**Mary:** Just like my past life was ended? I lost everything: my love, my place in the Higher Worlds, and I almost lost my life.

**Mary:**  my love, my place in the Higher Worlds, and I almost lost my life.

### Chapter 2

* Helper
* Avenger
* Goddess
* Guide
* Mi
Helper

**Lord Protector:** You could have helped me at the trial in the Higher Worlds, but you chose to turn a blind eye to the injustice!

**Helper:** I don't know how or why you cause these delusions. But I've had enough of your tricks!

**Lord Protector:** I'm trying to help. These unresolved conflicts are dragging you down...

...

**Helper:** I wasn't complaining, and you dragged me to the Lower Worlds, literally!

**Helper:** As you know, neither demons nor gods have power over me. I keep the Book of Time and support the balance. And so do you...

**Helper:** But your fears are starting to get the better of you. Pangea needs a strong Lord Protector.

Avenger

**Avenger:** I was forced to intervene and use the Book to plunge you into the memories you are avoiding and fearing.

**Avenger:** You don't want to acknowledge your mistakes? Now you're not so flawless, Lord Protector, aren't you?

**Lord Protector:** You could have prevented that fire!

...

**Avenger:** I can't listen to your accusations anymore!

**Avenger:** Remember when fire dragons and chimeras swept away everything in their path? That was my nightmare for a long time.

Goddess

**Goddess:** I hope it will be yours now, too!

**Lord Protector:** Now you know what it's like to be judged by a single act, throwing away everything that came before.

**Goddess:** Wait, I...

...

**Goddess:** You had the time to speak out at the trial of the gods. Now it's my turn!

**Goddess:** I fell in love with a demon and believed I could still save his soul. But I didn't know how far he was willing to go...

**Goddess:** When I realized that the ritual would lead to the death of innocents, I stopped it and almost died myself.

Guide

**Lord Protector:** I was severely punished and banished from the Higher Worlds. But we all know that it wasn't all about my wrongdoing, it was my relationship with a demon.

**Guide:** You think too much of yourself! I want this to stop!

**Guide:** You try to cut their images with a sword, but a sword can't help you in this matter.

**Lord Protector:** The deeper you sink into your anger at yourself, the stronger the illusions become.

...

**Guide:** You're the only one I'm angry at right now!

**Guide:** You need to stop blaming yourself for these situations.

Mi

**Mi:** Mary and Mi are only voicing your subconscious mind.

**Lord Protector:** The Lord Protector is supposed to defend the people of Pangea, not cause their deaths!

...

**Mi:** I will no longer allow my fears to prevail over me!

**Lord Protector:** Oh, really?

**Lord Protector:** I wanted to study the pyromancer's inventions so I could use them for good.

**Lord Protector:** But I couldn't imagine what he would do if he escaped from prison.

### Chapter 3

* Exile
* Illusionist
* Hater
* Adversary
* Gremory
Exile

**Lord Protector:** Is it just me, or has the swarm of accusatory voices in my head become quieter?

**Exile:** Mary, your punishment was really undeserved.

...

**Lord Protector:** Then how can you call yourself an honest and just ruler if you don't uphold these values?

**Lord Protector:** I had just returned to Pangea then, and I could not challenge the gods. I spoke up for you, but it wasn't enough.

Illusionist

**Lord Protector:** In the end the Council made the decision, and I regret that I did not influence it.

**Illusionist:** I explained to them... or rather myself, that what happened was not my fault.

**Lord Protector:** And you're on the right track.

...

**Illusionist:** Why am I still here then?!

**Illusionist:** Mi and Mary are just a couple of pages in the Book. There are other memories you are avoiding.

Hater

**Hater:** So you need to find the root of the problem. Think about what I said and fight your illusions one last time.

**Lord Protector:** How can the people of Pangea ever rely on you?

...

**Lord Protector:** Your words don't work on me anymore!

**Lord Protector:** I'm afraid I can't protect Pangea from all threats.

**Hater:** I am doing my best, but... I am not all-powerful.

Adversary

**Adversary:** Your test is passed, Lord Protector.

**Lord Protector:** I hope you get stuck in your fears and never get out of here!

...

**Lord Protector:** Sorry to upset you again, but I have things to do that I've been putting off for a long time.

**Lord Protector:** There have been mistakes in my past. Some of them I really want to forget.

**Lord Protector:** I've been afraid to go back to them, but now I feel the courage to put them right.

**Adversary:** And that goes for you, too, Mary. It's not too late to help you.

Gremory

**Gremory:** Gremory is waiting for you.

**Lord Protector:** I congratulate you, Lord Protector. This journey through the corners of mind has not been easy.

...

**Lord Protector:** That's putting it mildly! You also need to learn something — don't mess with the Lord Protector!

**Lord Protector:** On one hand, rethinking some things might be useful.

**Gremory:** But, for our next meeting, choose something funnier.

**Gremory:** As you wish, Lord Protector.

**Gremory:** And Happy Halloween!.
