BeeNic

'I am the master of time!'

*BeeNic - Furry Hound with the power of thunder*

*Wants to reclaim his past and his memories*

*Time-wield hound of thunder, in search of his past and future.*

## Intro

In the northern part of Luxium, near the Yggdrasil. A large number of White Capes escort a dozen Gyee captured from their hometowns, taking them to the White Capes' eastern base. They plan to try the Gyee publicly and execute them in order to send a message to the region's residents. However, something unexpected gave the captured Gyee hope.

'A ray of light! Half of the White Capes disappeared!' A rescued Gyee cried.

This beam of light turned into a bolt of lightning after destroying half of the White Robes. In the blink of an eye, half of the White Robes were gone, ruining their plans!

In the middle of this bright light at its center stood a Furry hound. Possessing a sturdy and strong figure, a large and fluffy tail, a pair of ears standing at attention next to a striking gray hair in the middle and a pair of large goggles underneath, his face bears no discernible expression. No one knows where he came from - he has appeared out of nowhere to rescue the captured Gyee.

Perhaps it's true what they say: with great power comes great responsibility. This individual has lost his memory. Not only is his past a blank to him, but so is his identity. He only remembers his name: BeeNic. He also remembers a vague yet firm goal.

* **BlackFlame City Mercenary**: BeeNic is a messenger of light! I saw it with my own eyes! Back then, I was still in the White Robes. I was helping them escort some Gyee. Along the way, BeeNic appeared, shining with a dazzling light. Before any of us knew what was happening, he disappeared, along with half our troops! His light is the true Holy Light!

## Scripts

### Consolation Letter

Hey, I'm BeeNic.

Principal Vundo found me a nice place to stay. It's close to the lake, the scenery is nice, and it's a good place to rest. The Kaist Church is nearby. Maybe I'll take the opportunity to pray that my memory gets restored. The only problem is, the bed here isn't as comfortable as the bed in the guest room on the airship. Maybe you could have your bed moved here? Haha, I'm just joking~

Anyway, I just want to know how you've been lately. If you don't have time to reply, don't worry. I'll be there for you whenever you need me.

### Bath Drama

* My back... So itchy!
* A time reset renders a bath meaningless. But the fun of taking a bath is irreplaceable!
* One's tail requires frequent maintenance to ensure its softness.

### Fave Hottie Slogan

With my abilities, I can steal all the votes in an instant! But I won't have to. That's because, you're going to give me your vote anyway! Ruff!

**Rescue Operation**

**-Part 1**

*In the heart of a forest in Northern Luxium.*
*Player, Miles, and many Oathblades are gathered at a clearing in the forest*
*A scout runs up to Miles*
**Oathblades scout**: Wolf! Our brothers are in position for the ambush!
**Miles**: Good!
*Miles addresses the Oathblades*
**Miles**: This morning, we received...
**Miles**: A message from our brothers.
**Miles**: The White Capes raided two villages north of Yggdrasil.
**Miles**: They captured a dozen of our Gyee brothers!
**Miles**: Today our job is to save them!
**Miles**: The White Capes who are escorting our captured Gyee brothers should be passing by here soon.
**Miles**: When the time comes, look for my signal.
**Miles**: Our snipers will take out the White Capes rangers and scouts first.
**Miles**: As soon as you hear gunfire, the rest of you will follow me in a head-on attack!
**Oathblades Captain A**: Yes, sir!
**Miles**: At the same time, you and Player will outflank them from behind!
**Oathblades Captain B**: Yes, sir!
**Miles**: Everyone, put a light on your hoods!
**Miles**: Make sure you've got a clear sight before you attack. No friendly fire!
**Oathblades Warrior**: Got it!
**Miles**: Are there any questions about this rescue operation?
*Choice 1.1 - (Question the credibility of the White Capes intel)*
**Player**: It stands to reason that such a large-scale White Capes operation...
**Player**: Would be highly confidential to prevent us from intervening.
**Player**: Is the White Capes intel reliable, Miles?
**Miles**: Tch...
**Miles**: Confirming the reliability of our intel is the Commander's job!
**Miles**: My only job...
**Miles**: Is to kill White Capes!
**Player**: Uh huh...
**Player**: (Why does Miles seem so aggressive?)
*Choice 1.1.1 - (Question the credibility of the White Capes intel)*
*Go to Choice 1.1*
*Choice 1.1.2 - (Ask about Plan B)*
*Go to Choice 1.2*
*Choice 1.1.3 - (Endorse Miles's plan)*
*Go to Choice 1.3*
*Choice 1.1.4 - (No questions!)*
*Go to Choice 1.4*
*Choice 1.2 - (Ask about Plan B)*
**Player**: If the plan doesn't work out or if there are more White Capes than we expect...
**Player**: Do we have a Plan B?
**Miles**: No!
**Miles**: The Oathblades only have a few troops in this area and we're the only ones involved in this rescue operation.
**Miles**: However, there should only be a few White Capes.
**Miles**: We're more than enough!
*Choice 1.2.1 - (Question the credibility of the White Capes intel)*
*Go to Choice 1.1*
*Choice 1.2.2 - (Ask about Plan B)*
*Go to Choice 1.2*
*Choice 1.2.3 - (Endorse Miles's plan)*
*Go to Choice 1.3*
*Choice 1.2.4 - (No questions!)*
*Go to Choice 1.4*
*Choice 1.3 - (Endorse Miles's plan)*
**Player**: (smiles)
**Miles**: Is something about my plan funny to you?
**Player**: No, it's fine.
**Player**: The plan is perfect. It's just that...
**Player**: I haven't seen you for a few days, Miles.
**Player**: You've suddenly got a mind for tactics.
**Miles**: Huh?
**Miles**: What do you take us Oathblades for, Player?
**Miles**: Do you think we're nothing but a bunch of simple-minded musclemen?
**Player**: Uh...
**Player**: That's not what I meant.
**Oathblades Captain A**: It seems that during the special training, Wolf read his fair share of books.
**Player**: Special training?
**Oathblades Captain B**: The past couple of months, Wolf didn't train with us. He trained one-on-one with the Commander.
**Oathblades Captain A**: Supposedly, the Commander made Wolf read a lot of books.
**Player**: Miles?! Read books?!
**Player**: \*Puff\*...
**Miles**: What are you guys mumbling about over there?!
*Choice 1.3.1 - (Question the credibility of the White Capes intel)*
*Go to Choice 1.1*
*Choice 1.3.2 - (Ask about Plan B)*
*Go to Choice 1.2*
*Choice 1.3.3 - (Endorse Miles's plan)*
*Go to Choice 1.3*
*Choice 1.3.4 - (No questions!)*
*Go to Choice 1.4*
*Choice 1.4 - (No questions!)*
**Miles**: Everyone! Return to your positions!
**Miles**: Now we wait for the White Capes to fall into our trap!
**Oathblades Warrior**: Yes, sir!
*The warriors split up to make preparations*
*Scene continues after choices*
*Another warrior approaches Miles*
**Oathblades Warrior**: Wolf! Wolf!
**Miles**: What's wrong?
**Oathblades scout**: Wolf, we found a suspicious person near our ambush site!
**Player**: A suspicious person?
**Player**: Hmm... Don't tell me the White Capes have discovered our rescue operation?
*Another Oathblade leads Alcander to Miles and Player*
**Player**: Huh?
**Alcander**: Hey! Miles! Player!
**Oathblades Warrior**: This guy was sneaking around nearby!
**Alcander**: I wasn't sneaking around...
**Alcander**: I asked you to bring me to Miles...
**Miles**: Alcander? What are you doing here?
**Alcander**: I'm exploring, of course!
**Miles**: Exploring?
**Miles**: You'd better come back some other time.
**Miles**: The Oathblades are here on an important mission!
**Alcander**: Oh, I see.
**Alcander**: But I can't just cancel today's exploration...
**Miles**: What are you talking about?
**Alcander**: Take it easy. Don't get angry, Miles.
**Alcander**: How about I join you and your Oathblades on your little mission?
**Miles**: Join others?
**Alcander**: Yeah, I'll help you complete your mission and then I can continue exploring!
**Miles**: Are you joking?!
**Alcander**: See, I came all the way from Never Isle. It wasn't easy to get here.
**Alcander**: Besides, if you send me away now...
**Alcander**: What if I'm spotted by the enemy?
**Alcander**: Wouldn't that affect your plans?
**Miles**: (angry)
**Player**: Let's let Alcander join, Miles.
**Player**: We don't have any troops that we can spare to watch over him.
**Player**: Besides, you know what Alcander can do.
**Player**: With him here, the rescue operation will go off without a hitch!
**Alcander**: (smiles)
**Miles**: ...
**Miles**: All right. Alcander, you join Player's group.
**Alcander**: Got it!
*A few moments later...*
*Alcander talks to Player privately*
**Alcander**: After you hear the gunshots, come around from behind the White Capes.
**Alcander**: Then rescue the Gyee who were captured by the White Capes.
**Alcander**: Understood!
**Player**: Yeah, that's about the long and short of it.
**Player**: We can take it easy until the scouts come back.
**Alcander**: Then I'll scout around nearby, too.
**Player**: Huh? We've got scouts for that.
**Alcander**: The more, the merrier.
**Player**: But...
**Alcander**: Don't worry, Player! I'll be careful!
*Alcander excitedly leaves*
**Player**: Wait!
**Player**: Man, when it comes to exploring...
**Player**: Alcander really is persistent.
*Moments before...*
*Three kilometers east of the Oathblades ambush site...*
**White Capes Soldier**: Pick up the pace, you yellow eyes!
*A platoon of White Capes leads a group of captured Gyees through the forest*
**White Capes Soldier**: Hurry!
**Gyee Prisoner**: Uh...
**Gyee Prisoner**: We've been walking for hours. Can't we rest?
**White Capes Soldier**: You want to rest, you filthy yellow eyes?
**White Capes Soldier**: Keep moving.
**White Capes Captain**: Stop, everyone!
**White Capes Soldier**: !!
**White Capes Soldier**: Captain?
**White Capes Aide**: Why are we stopping, Captain?
**White Capes Aide**: The general wants us to take all the Gyee we capture back to the base today for a trial.
**White Capes Aide**: If we stop too many times, the general will...
**White Capes Captain**: I know!
**White Capes Captain**: But this road is quiet. Too quiet.
**White Capes Captain**: We captured two villages' worth of Gyee.
**White Capes Captain**: The yellow eyes from Never Isle won't just stand by and do nothing!
**White Capes Aide**: Never Isle!
**White Capes Captain**: The terrain in the forest ahead is complex. If we go rushing in...
**White Capes Captain**: There's a high probability of ambush!
**White Capes Aide**: I see. Good thinking ahead, Captain. I...
**White Capes Aide**: Who's there?!
**White Capes Captain**: Everyone, freeze!
**White Capes Aide**: Captain? Captain?
**White Capes Captain**: I thought there might be an ambush ahead, so I contacted an old friend of mine.
*Another group of White Capes appear*
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: You... You had me lead my troops here!
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: I demand an explanation!
**White Capes Captain**: Don't be angry. Look...
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: Humph!
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: Why did you capture so many yellow eyes?!
**White Capes Captain**: Our mission is to take these Yellow Eyes to the base in Northeastern Luxium for punishment!
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: They're just yellow eyes. Can't you just execute them on the spot? Why go to all this trouble?
**White Capes Captain**: The general's thinking is...
**White Capes Captain**: The Northeast has Yggdrasil, the forest, complex terrain, and lots of primitive tribes.
**White Capes Captain**: Most of those tribes are unwilling to cooperate with us.
**White Capes Captain**: The general wants to carry out a public execution to scare them into compliance.
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: That makes sense.
**White Capes Captain**: Transporting yellow eyes such a long distance is dangerous. That's why I asked for your help.
**White Capes Captain**: If you help me transport the yellow eyes to the camp...
**White Capes Captain**: The general will never forget it!
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: Haha, now you're talking my language!
**White Capes Captain**: How many people did you bring?
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: I brought all my troops. Two squadrons should be enough, right?
**White Capes Aide**: Yes! That doubles our forces...
*A few moments later...*
**White Capes Aide**: Captain, it seems that you didn't go through official channels to inform our brothers of the situation, nor did you inform the local Commander of the Holy Light.
**White Capes Captain**: Humph! That trash. I avoided him on purpose!
**White Capes Captain**: The Sword of Light has been foiled by the Never Isle yellow eyes several times. Haven't you ever wondered why?
**White Capes Aide**: I have no idea. Do you know?
**White Capes Captain**: It's because of that trash commander! They must have a Never Isle spy in their midst!
**White Capes Aide**: A spy!
**White Capes Captain**: So that's why I didn't notify them we were looking for reinforcements.
**White Capes Aide**: But you just got appointed captain here. If you let the local commander know...
**White Capes Captain**: I don't care. The general personally appointed me captain. As long as I am loyal to the general and serve the Holy Light, that trash won't say a thing!
**White Capes Aide**: You're not afraid of exercising your authority and you are loyal to the Holy Light. It is an honor to serve you!
**White Capes Captain**: Haha, that's very good! But quit it with the ass-kissing!
**White Capes Captain**: Take our scouts and scout out the area ahead.
**White Capes Captain**: Once we ascertain the situation, we'll move on!
**White Capes Aide**: Got it!
**White Capes Aide**: You two! And you! Come with me!
**White Capes scout**: Yes, sir!
**White Capes Captain**: You guys! Watch the prisoners. Stay frosty!
**White Capes Captain**: Never Isle yellow eyes may appear at any moment!
**White Capes Soldier**: Yes, sir!
*A few moments later...*
**White Capes Captain**: I suppose all of your troops are here.
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: (Nervously clutches sword) Yes, sir!
**White Capes Captain**: Which means...
**???**: This is...
*A large, humanoid hound wanders in the middle of the White Capes*
*He clutches his head as if trying to remember something*
**White Capes Captain**: A Furry yellow eyes?
**White Capes Captain**: It's an ambush! Everyone, get ready for battle!
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: Haha, just as I expected! The Never Isle yellow eyes have shown their faces!
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: They sent one measly Furry yellow eyes. They underestimate you!
**???**: Uh...
*The Furry collapses*
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: Huh? The yellow eyes...it's dead?
**White Capes Captain**: You two, stay close. This might be an enemy trap.
**White Capes Soldier**: Yes, sir...
**White Capes Captain**: Check and see if he's a Shadowhunter. We don't need any trouble from them!
**White Capes Soldier**: ...
**White Capes Soldier**: He doesn't have any identification on him. He's probably not a Shadowhunter.
**White Capes Soldier**: Notify the captain. The yellow eyes is still breathing!
**White Capes Soldier**: It looks like he just fainted!
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: He fainted?
**White Capes Captain**: Is he not from Never Isle?
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: Never Isle yellow eyes are cunning and treacherous. We need to be careful.
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: I'll lead a squad to search carefully along the path where the Furry yellow eyes appeared!
**White Capes Captain**: Then I'll take the remaining troops and defend this area!
*The Reinforcement Captain leaves*
**White Capes Soldier**: Captain!
**White Capes Captain**: What happened?
**White Capes Soldier**: This Furry yellow eyes, he...
*The Furry Gyee suddenly starts to sparkle with electricity*
**White Capes Captain**: Huh?! Arcana?!
**White Capes Captain**: Damn! This is a trap! Everyone, disperse!
*A large blue circle appears under the Furry and the nearby White Capes*
**Gyee Prisoner**: Is that...the Holy Light?
**Prisoner Guard**: Holy Light?
*In a flash, the Furry and the White Capes in the circle disappear*
**White Capes Soldier**: !!!!
**White Capes Reinforcement Soldier**: Captain!
**White Capes Soldier**: Captain!!!
**White Capes Soldier**: Damn. Half of our troops are nowhere to be seen!
**White Capes Reinforcement Soldier**: What should we do?
**Prisoner Guard**: Is that not the Holy Light?
*Meanwhile, at the Oathblades ambush site*
**Player**: I sense a large arcana...
**Player**: But it doesn't seem like...
*Miles comes back to the site*
**Oathblades Captain B**: Brother Wolf!
**Miles**: How are our brothers?
**Oathblades Captain B**: Everyone's standing by!
**Miles**: Good...
**Miles**: How about our scouts? Any news?
**Oathblades Captain B**: They just made a report two minutes ago.
**Oathblades Captain B**: Everything is normal!
**Player**: Something's not right. It's been too long...
**Player**: The White Capes haven't made a single move.
**Miles**: That's right. I'm losing my patience!
**Player**: They couldn't have gotten lost in the forest, could they?
**Miles**: Humph. Lost...
**Miles**: Luxium's Northeastern White Capes often travel along this road.
**Miles**: I'm afraid something has happened.
**Player**: ...
*Miles looks around*
**Miles**: What about Alcander?
**Player**: Uh, he...
**Alcander**: Miss me, Miles?
*Alcander walks back to the camp*
**Miles**: Where did you go?
**Alcander**: I was scouting nearby.
**Miles**: (angry)
**Miles**: Did you find anything?
**Alcander**: I didn't see any White Capes...
**Alcander**: But I found some strange Flux traces...
**Player**: Flux traces?
**Alcander**: Yeah, I think we'd better investigate.
**Miles**: We're here to stop the White Capes!
**Miles**: We're not here to do a research study!
**Player**: Miles, just now I sensed a strange Flux fluctuation as well.
**Player**: Somebody used a powerful arcana to the east of here.
**Miles**: You sensed it too, Player?
**Player**: Yes!
**Alcander**: Besides, we've been here a long time and the White Capes haven't shown any sign of coming closer.
**Alcander**: It's time to launch our own strike!
**Miles**: !!
**Alcander**: (Both ears perk up)
**Miles**: (angry)
**Player**: What's wrong?
**Alcander**: It seems like we're not the only ones here.
**Miles**: Grey!
**Grey**: Grrr...
*The White Capes Aide enters the Oathblades camp alone*
*Miles points his shotgun at the Aide*
**???**: Don't shoot! I'm one of you!
**Miles**: Stand still!
**Player**: White Capes!
**Oathblades Captain B**: Damn! When...?
**Grey**: Arooo...
*The other Oathblades ready their weapons*
**Miles**: Hold on! Wait for my orders!
**Player**: Miles?
**Miles**: Did you bring the Light Flux Crystal I wanted?
**White Capes Aide**: The crystal was taken, but we'll get it back!
**Miles**: Tch...
**Miles**: Shh, Grey!
*Miles lowers his shotgun*
**Player**: Miles?!
**Miles**: Shouldn't you be with the White Capes?
**White Capes Aide**: Captain Miles! Player! The situation has changed!
**Player**: How does this White Cape know me?
**Player**: What's the meaning of this?
**Miles**: This is the guy who's been giving me intel on the White Capes.
**Miles**: Our 'brother'.
**White Capes Aide**: Order of Equality, Tactical Infiltration Unit senior agent, reporting for duty!
**Player**: You're an agent with the Order of Equality?!
**Alcander**: The Oathblades and Order of Equality working together! Now this is a sight to see!
**Miles**: Humph!
**Player**: Did a Gyee go undercover in the White Capes?
**Miles**: This guy's a jerk!
**White Capes Aide**: ...
**White Capes Aide**: Captain Miles is right. I'm just a normal human.
**White Capes Aide**: Though I'm not a Gyee...
**White Capes Aide**: I believe in fairness between humans and Gyee.
**White Capes Aide**: Our true enemy is the Shadows!
**Miles**: As long as you don't help the White Capes, that's good enough for me!
**White Capes Aide**: To return to the subject...
**White Capes Aide**: Captain Miles, we need to adjust the rescue operation!
**Miles**: What happened?
**White Capes Aide**: When we entered the forest, some White Capes reinforcements joined the Gyee prisoner escort team!
**Player**: Reinforcements?
**Miles**: How many?
**White Capes Aide**: Two squadrons.
**Miles**: !!
**White Capes Aide**: Along with the original escort team, the enemy currently has four times our numbers.
**Player**: What?!
**Miles**: Reinforcements...the intel you gave us said nothing about reinforcements!
**White Capes Aide**: The White Capes captain in charge of the escort team called these reinforcements himself. The request did not go through official White Capes channels.
**White Capes Aide**: I didn't know that reinforcements were coming until they showed up.
**White Capes Aide**: I'm very sorry, this is my fault. I should've watched the captain more closely!
**Miles**: Forget it. It's not your fault.
**Miles**: Those idiots are finally wising up.
**White Capes Aide**: Captain Miles, I personally recommend changing the plan.
**White Capes Aide**: We should change it from an ambush to a raid.
**White Capes Aide**: Although I can tell you there's no ambush waiting in the forest...
**White Capes Aide**: The enemy has four times our numbers. In an ambush, we would have no advantage.
**Miles**: I know that! I don't need you to tell me these things!
**White Capes Aide**: Well...to avoid any suspicion...
**White Capes Aide**: I'll be going now.
**Miles**: Of course!
**Alcander**: Sorry, hold on a second!
**White Capes Aide**: Do you need anything?
**Alcander**: Have you discovered anything out of the ordinary over there?
**White Capes Aide**: Out of the ordinary?
**Player**: That's right. For example, have the White Capes used any arrays, or...
**White Capes Aide**: Hmm... There aren't any arcanists among the escort team or the reinforcements.
**White Capes Aide**: And nothing strange has happened.
**White Capes Aide**: At least until I left an hour and a half ago, nothing strange had happened.
**Alcander**: I see...
**Alcander**: Alas...
**White Capes Aide**: I'm leaving now.
*The Aide leaves*
**Miles**: Humph. Fool!
**Player**: All right, Miles. He's helping us.
**Miles**: I know that!
*Miles talks to one of his captains*
**Miles**: Send a request for reinforcements to the outpost in Elysiann...
**Miles**: Have them hurry up.
**Miles**: Notify our brothers lying in wait that they need to be ready!
**Miles**: We're going to strike!
**Oathblades Captain B**: Got it!
*Player talks to Alcander*
**Player**: If that Flux fluctuation just now wasn't the White Capes' doing...
**Player**: Then what could it have been?
**Alcander**: ...
**Alcander**: (smiles)
*A few moments later...*
*At the White Capes camp.*
*The Aide returns to the camp*
**White Capes Aide**: Why are there so few people left in the camp?
**White Capes Aide**: Where's the captain?
**White Capes Soldier**: Oh, you're finally back...
**White Capes Soldier**: Something happened!
*The soldier tells the Aide about the mysterious Furry Gyee and sudden disappearance of half the White Capes*
**White Capes Aide**: What?
**White Capes Aide**: A Furry Gyee appeared, then the two captains and half the soldiers disappeared into thin air...
**White Capes Aide**: Did the other half go looking for them?
**White Capes Soldier**: Yes, sir.
**White Capes Aide**: Now only a quarter of the original troops are guarding the Gyee prisoners.
**White Capes Aide**: This means Never Isle should fight, right?
**White Capes Soldier**: I'm going to send out a signal flare then...
**White Capes Aide**: Fool! Launching a flare now would just tell the enemy that we're open in the rear.
**White Capes Soldier**: What... should we do?
**White Capes Aide**: Let's take the Gyee prisoners and move!
**White Capes Reinforcement**: Move? But then the captains and the rest of the troops won't be able to find us!
**White Capes Aide**: This is all clearly a trap!
**White Capes Aide**: The yellow eyes from Never Isle could attack us at any moment!
**White Capes Aide**: As things stand, I'm currently the highest ranking officer in the escort squad. Warriors of the Holy Light, let's move!
**White Capes Reinforcement**: Oh...yes, sir!
*A few moments later...*
*Miles leads Player, Alcander and the rest of the Oathblades to the White Capes camp*
*A scout approaches Miles*
**Oathblades scout**: Wolf! Wolf!
**Oathblades scout**: The White Capes that captured our brothers are coming this way!
**Player**: Huh? They're moving?
**Miles**: (smiles)
**Miles**: I didn't think that guy would turn out to be so useful.
**Miles**: Oathblades, deploy according to our new plan. Divide into three groups and attack the White Capes from three directions!
**Oathblades Warrior**: Yes, sir!!
*Shortly, at the White Capes camp...*
**White Capes Soldier**: ...
**White Capes Soldier**: Enemy attack!
**White Capes Soldier**: What? Send out the signal flare!
**Miles**: Good idea...
**Miles**: Brothers! Defeat these White Capes! Don't let them get away!
*The Oathblades win and capture the White Capes*
*Miles looks over the Gyees that the White Capes took prisoner*
**Miles**: Are these the Gyee that were captured by the White Capes?
**Oathblades Warrior**: Their numbers match the intel. Not a single on missing!
**Miles**: Great! Mission accomplished. Get ready...
**White Capes Aide**: Hold on, Captain Miles. There's another Gyee.
**Miles**: Another?
**White Capes Aide**: All of the White Capes suddenly saw a Furry Gyee appear...
**White Capes Aide**: The Furry emitted a bright flash, then the two White Capes captains and half of the soldiers disappeared.
**Alcander**: Furry?
**Alcander**: Flash?
**Player**: Could it be teleportation arcana?
**Miles**: Huh? That exists? Regardless, I should thank that guy...
**White Capes Aide**: Before you thank him, you should free him first.
**White Capes Aide**: According to White Capes intel, that Gyee was seriously injured. Sounds like he's in danger.
**White Capes Aide**: The White Capes will not let him get away.
**Miles**: I see. I'll take a few brothers to go save him! Everyone else, escort these Gyee back to Never Isle!
**White Capes Aide**: Good idea!
*A captain runs up to Miles*
**Oathblades Captain A**: Report!
**Oathblades Captain A**: Wolf! Wolf!
**Miles**: Why the rush? What's wrong?
**Oathblades Captain A**: Our scouts have reported back, saying there are large numbers of White Capes converging on our position from the east, north, and south!
**White Capes Aide**: We've been discovered?
**Player**: Three directions? At this time? How is that possible?
**Miles**: How many are there?
**Oathblades Captain A**: More than double our number!
**Miles**: What?!
**Oathblades Captain B**: With odds like that, we should retreat!
**Oathblades Captain A**: But we're escorting some prisoners we just rescued. Some of them are injured and can't move quickly.
**White Capes Aide**: And there's also the matter of that Gyee!
**Miles**: Uh...
**Alcander**: ...
**Alcander**: Miles, I'll go find the Furry Gyee!
**Miles**: You?
**Miles**: The enemy outnumbers us by four times. We killed a few of them...
**Miles**: If a force two times our size is in pursuit, that means that there's still a lot of White Capes guarding that Furry Gyee.
**Miles**: Going in there alone would be a suicide mission.
**Alcander**: But it's only a matter of time before the White Capes catch up to your group. You all need the manpower!
**Miles**: Well...
**Player**: I'll go with Alcander to rescue the Furry Gyee.
**Player**: We'll come back when we save him and ambush the White Capes that are chasing you!
**Miles**: Player...
**Miles**: Sounds like a plan!
**Miles**: Be careful, you two! Don't throw your lives away for nothing!
**Alcander**: Don't worry. I've still got plenty of exploring to do when we're done here!
*Miles turns to one of his captains*
**Miles**: Those reinforcements I just ordered you to call for - when can they get here?
**Oathblades Captain B**: They just set out from the forward outpost in Elysiann. I'm afraid...
**Miles**: We're on our own.
**Miles**: Inform the teams: have them retreat to the original planned ambush location and deploy some defenses. We need to hold on until reinforcements arrive!
**Oathblades Captain B**: Yes, sir!
**White Capes Aide**: Then I'll go back and find those White Capes. I'll do whatever I can!
*A while later, in a forest cave.*
**Player**: I had no idea the inside of this forest cave could be so big!
**Alcander**: I've never been here before, either.
**Player**: Did we make a mistake?
**Alcander**: We followed the mysterious Flux traces here. We couldn't have made a mistake...
**Player**: But to teleport enemies to different locations and also to teleport yourself to a place like this...
**Player**: This kind of teleportation arcana doesn't really exist, does it?
**Alcander**: ...
**Alcander**: This isn't teleportation arcana.
**Player**: Huh?
*Choice 2.1 - If it's not teleportation arcana, then...*
**Alcander**: I don't know why...
**Alcander**: But there's something familiar about this arcana...
**Player**: ...
**Alcander**: I think we'll only learn the truth from the caster himself.
*Choice 2.2 - This Furry Gyee's identity...*
**Alcander**: Huh?
**Player**: Do you know something, Alcander?
**Alcander**: (smiles)
**Alcander**: No. I don't know anything.
**Alcander**: It's because I don't know anything that I want to find him.
*Choice 2.3 - Your goal in becoming an adventurer...*
**Player**: For that Furry Gyee?
**Alcander**: (smiles)
**Alcander**: The whole point of exploration is to discover the unknown.
**Alcander**: Isn't it?
*Conversation continues after choices*
*Player and Alcander hear shouting in the distance*
**???**: Find that Furry yellow eyes!
**Player**: We need to hurry up!
**Alcander**: Yeah!
*Elsewhere in the cave, the Furry Gyee remains collapsed on the ground*
*He is surrounded by the teleported White Capes*
**White Capes Captain**: Damned yellow eyes!
**White Capes Captain**: We found you!
**White Capes Captain**: What is this place?!
*In the face of the fury of the White Capes, the Furry Gyee did not react.*
**White Capes Soldier**: Captain, he seems to have fainted.
**White Capes Captain**: Be careful. Don't fall for any more of his tricks!
**White Capes Soldier**: Yes, sir!
**Alcander**: Get away from him!
*Alcander uses Flash Meteor to attack the White Capes surrounding the Furry Gyee*
**White Capes Captain**: Never Isle yellow eyes!
**White Capes Captain**: Warriors of the Holy Light, get ready to attack!
*Player and Alcander fight off the White Capes down to the last captain*
**White Capes Captain**: Ahh... damn it...
**Player**: You're the only one left!
**Alcander**: (Flame ignites in palm)
**White Capes Captain**: The two of you will remember me! (Takes out arcana bomb)
**Player**: Careful, Alcander!
*Boom!*
**Alcander**: Oh, it was a flash bomb! He escaped!
**Player**: Don't worry about that White Cape. The Furry needs help.
**Alcander**: You're right!
*Player and Alcander check on the Furry Gyee*
**Player**: I'll check his injuries first.
**Alcander**: His injuries, how...
**Alcander**: Whoa!
**Alcander**: This guy!
**Player**: What's wrong, Alcander?
**Alcander**: It's nothing...
**Alcander**: This Furry Gyee. How are his injuries?
**Player**: I just did some emergency treatment. He should be out of the woods for now.
**Player**: But he needs more thorough treatment!
**Alcander**: I'll carry him. You go back and find Miles and the others!
**Player**: All right!
*A few moments later...*
*Luxium's northeast forest.*
**White Capes Messenger A**: Report, Captain! The Oathblades have hidden the yellow eyes that we caught. The remnants are resisting!
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: Hidden?
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: It doesn't matter. We have the clear advantage in numbers and on the tactics side, we've surrounded them.
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: Deliver these orders: kill all the Oathblades first. Then we'll take our time looking for the yellow eyes!
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: This time, the Holy Light will win!
**White Capes Messenger A**: Got it!
*The sounds of raging fires suddenly go off nearby*
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: !!
*A short distance away, Alcander in Lion King form stands in the middle of many fallen White Capes*
**Alcander**: Heh heh...
**Alcander**: Alcander!
**Alcander**: Fight!
**White Capes Soldier**: Oh! Some monsters are attacking from behind!
**White Capes Soldier**: The camp is on fire!
*Another messenger runs up to the Reinforcement Captain*
**White Capes Messenger B**: Report, Captain! B-behind us...
**White Capes Messenger B**: There are enemies behind us!
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: Don't worry. Hold the line!
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: I expected the Oathblades might try something like this.
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: I made preparations!
*Alcander continues his attack*
**Alcander**: Feel the wrath of the lion!
**Alcander**: Rragh!
*Alcander senses something behind him and narrowly dodges a bullet*
**Alcander**: That was close...
*Multiple White Capes Musketeers point their guns at Alcander*
**Alcander**: This time...
**Alcander**: Things got a little hairy.
**White Capes Musketeer**: The target is that long-furred yellow eyes. Fire!
*Meanwhile...*
*Farther away, Player checks on the Furry Gyee*
**Injured Furry**: (Strained expression) Ow...ow...
**Player**: Uh oh, he's taken a turn for the worse.
**Player**: Alcander, Miles...
**Player**: Hurry up...
*Player hears multiple gunshots ring through the forest*
**Player**: !!
**Player**: This sound. It's Miles's gun!
*Player checks the distance at the White Capes camp*
**Player**: Uh oh. Alcander's been ambushed!
**Player**: I need to go help him!
**Player**: I'll use my Flux to stabilize the Gyee's injuries...
*Player turns around but the Furry Gyee is nowhere to be seen*
**Player**: Hey! Where are you?!
*Back at the White Capes camp...*
**Alcander**: Look, weaklings...
*Alcander dodges another bullet*
**Alcander**: I don't have time to prepare a spell...
**Alcander**: Charging forward would be suicide.
**Alcander**: Uh...
*A flash of light.*
*The Furry Gyee suddenly appears next to Alcander*
**???**: I'm going...
**???**: to take them out!
**Alcander**: !!
**White Capes Musketeer**: Something's coming this way!
**White Capes Musketeer**: Fire! Fire!
*Fast as lightning, the Furry Gyee knocks out two of the White Capes Musketeers*
**White Capes Musketeer**: Ahh!
**White Capes Musketeer Captain**: Don't worry! He can't be faster than bullets! Fire! Fire!
**Injured Furry**: People who harm others...
**Injured Furry**: Cannot be spared!
*The Musketeer Captain raises his gun at the Furry Gyee but he suddenly vanishes*
**White Capes Musketeer Captain**: Disappear!
**White Capes Musketeer Captain**: !!
*The Furry Gyee suddenly reappears and knocks out the rest of the musketeers*
*More White Capes solders enter the camp*
**White Capes Soldier**: The ambush is over?
**White Capes Soldier**: Don't worry about it! Let's fight!
*In a flash, the Furry Gyee appears behind the new soldiers*
**White Capes Soldier**: !!
**Injured Furry**: ...
*The Furry Gyee engulfs the soldiers in a large blue circle of light and the soldiers disappear*
*A White Cape messenger runs back to the camp command center*
**White Capes Messenger B**: C-captain! That guy is back!
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: What? What do you mean?
**White Capes Messenger B**: The Gyee with the teleportation spell!
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: What?!
**White Capes Messenger B**: He took out our ambush...
**White Capes Messenger B**: We've lost a bunch more men!
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: Damn...
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: Don't worry. We still have the advantage! Calm down!
*The White Cape Aide runs to the captain*
**White Capes Aide**: Report! Our scouts have spotted an Oathblades airship!
**White Capes Aide**: Their reinforcements are almost here!
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: !!
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: Damn...
**White Capes Aide**: Captain, I'm afraid if we keep fighting...
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: I know!
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: Ah, we were so close...
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: Tell our warriors!
**White Capes Reinforcement Captain**: Alternate cover and retreat from the battlefield!
**White Capes Messenger B**: Yes, sir!!
*Back at the battle, the Furry Gyee clutches his head*
**Injured Furry**: ...
**Injured Furry**: Oh...
*Alcander runs to check on the Furry Gyee*
**Alcander**: This guy was hurt even before he pushed himself to his limits!
**Alcander**: Look at what you've done to yourself!
**Injured Furry**: Huff, puff...
**Injured Furry**: (smiles)
**Injured Furry**: At last...
**Injured Furry**: I found...
*The Furry Gyee collapses again*
**Alcander**: Hey!
**Alcander**: These injuries!
**Alcander**: This is all we can do for now...
*Alcander uses his Flux to stabilize the Furry Gyee's injuries*
**Alcander**: At least this way, he'll survive.
*Player runs to Alcander*
**Player**: Alcander!!
**Player**: Huff, puff...
**Player**: This guy's so fast...
**Player**: He...
**Alcander**: The White Capes are retreating, Player. Call your airship!
**Alcander**: He needs to go to Never Isle for treatment immediately!
*A few moments later...*
*Outside the Never Isle Arcana Academy Flux Emergency Room.*
**Player**: That injured Furry Gyee...
**Alcander**: The Arcana Academy has started to treat him. Trust them!
**Player**: When I turned my head, he disappeared.
**Player**: If only I could've stopped him...
**Alcander**: If you had stopped him, I would've been in serious trouble.
**Player**: I should've been there to attack the White Capes with you...
**Alcander**: Enough, Player!
*Alcander pats your head.*
**Alcander**: We've already done all we can do.
**Alcander**: Trust me, he will be fine.
**Player**: !!
**Player**: Thanks...
*Choice 3.1 - Why did the White Capes suddenly retreat?*
**Alcander**: They couldn't beat the Oathblades in front of them...
**Alcander**: And I was attacking them from behind.
**Alcander**: At the same time, they received intel about Oathblade reinforcements.
**Alcander**: All they could do was retreat.
**Player**: Oathblade reinforcements?
**Player**: But weren't they too far away to get there on time?
**Alcander**: I think our friends in the Order of Equality 'persuaded' the White Capes that the Oathblades had reinforcements on the way.
**Player**: I see. What a big help!
*Choice 3.1.1 - Why did the White Capes suddenly retreat?*
*Go to Choice 3.1*
*Choice 3.1.2 - Alcander, your adventure...*
*Go to Choice 3.2*
*Choice 3.1.3 - Alcander, those tattoos on your hand...*
*Go to Choice 3.3*
*Choice 3.1.4 - I've got some time. I'm going to check on that Gyee.*
*Continue with the conversation*
*Choice 3.2 - Alcander, your adventure...*
**Alcander**: Adventure...
**Alcander**: Is the pursuit of excitement and the unknown, is it not?
**Alcander**: Well then, mission accomplished!
*Choice 3.2.1 - Why did the White Capes suddenly retreat?*
*Go to Choice 3.1*
*Choice 3.2.2 - Alcander, your adventure...*
*Go to Choice 3.2*
*Choice 3.2.3 - Alcander, those tattoos on your hand...*
*Go to Choice 3.3*
*Choice 3.2.4 - I've got some time. I'm going to check on that Gyee.*
*Continue with the conversation*
*Choice 3.3 - Alcander, those tattoos on your hand...*
**Player**: One of them has faded.
**Alcander**: !!
**Alcander**: (Looks at back of hand)
**Alcander**: Huh? You're right...
**Alcander**: I'll go find a tattoo parlor and get it repaired in a couple of days.
*Choice 3.2.1 - Why did the White Capes suddenly retreat?*
*Go to Choice 3.1*
*Choice 3.2.2 - Alcander, your adventure...*
*Go to Choice 3.2*
*Choice 3.2.3 - Alcander, those tattoos on your hand...*
*Go to Choice 3.3*
*Choice 3.2.4 - I've got some time. I'm going to check on that Gyee.*
*Continue with the conversation*
*Conversation continues after choices*
**Alcander**: All right! Thank you.
**Player**: Principal Vundo!
*Vundo walks to Player and Alcander*
**Player**: Principal Vundo, that Furry Gyee...
**Vundo**: He was treated on time. He'll wake up soon.
**Player**: Great!
**Alcander**: (smiles)
**Vundo**: But...
**Vundo**: It was good that you two found him.
**Player**: Of course!
**Vundo**: What exactly did he go through?
**Player**: Why do you ask?
**Vundo**: I've never seen such serious structural Flux injuries!
**Player**: Structural Flux injuries?
**Alcander**: ...
**Vundo**: Yeah. Most of the time, the Flux structure in a person's body is stable.
**Vundo**: And usually, there are very few arcana capable of affecting someone's Flux structure.
**Player**: But according to my understanding, the only ones who could've hurt him are the White Capes, correct?
**Vundo**: The White Capes?
**Vundo**: Could the White Capes have arcana that can affect the structure of an organism's Flux?
**Player**: No, the White Capes we were pursuing were just a few swordsmen.
**Player**: Although they were better swordsmen than White Capes usually are, they didn't seem capable of using arcana.
**Vundo**: Then this is strange.
**Alcander**: I think to find the truth, we'll just have to ask the man himself.
**Vundo**: Yeah.
*An Academy arcanist runs to Vundo*
**Flux Arcanist**: Principal! Principal!
**Flux Arcanist**: The Furry's awake!
**Vundo**: How's he doing?
**Flux Arcanist**: With the help of the Flux Nexus, he's completely stabilized. He's not in danger anymore.
**Vundo**: Let me see him!
**Player**: I'll go with you!
*Player and Vundo follow the arcanist to the Furry Gyee*
**Alcander**: Is he awake?
**Alcander**: (smiles)
*Alcander leaves in the opposite direction*
*Scene - Inside the Flux Emergency Room*
**Injured Furry**: This is...
**Injured Furry**: Am I?
**Vundo**: This is the Arcana Academy. You're safe.
**Injured Furry**: Arcana Academy? What's that?
**Vundo**: Never Isle, the Arcana Academy!
**Injured Furry**: Never...Isle?
**Player**: Huh? You're a Gyee, but you've never heard of Never Isle?
**Injured Furry**: Gy...what?
*Vundo turns to Player*
**Vundo**: (Shrugs to indicate that he doesn't understand)
**Vundo**: It doesn't matter. Where do you live, friend?
**Vundo**: We'll let your friends and family know that you're safe.
**Injured Furry**: Family?
**Injured Furry**: Hmm...
**Injured Furry**: I don't know...
**Player**: Has he lost his memory?
**Vundo**: Do you remember your name, friend?
**Injured Furry**: I...
**BeeNic**: I'm BeeNic.
**Vundo**: Maybe the Flux injury has resulted in some memory damage.
**Vundo**: Talking about his experiences may help bring back some of his memories.
**Player**: Experiences? All right!
**Player**: Today, a few hours ago...
*Choice 4.1 - You were being pursued by the White Capes...*
**BeeNic**: White...Capes?
*Choice 4.2 - You helped us defeat the White Capes...*
**BeeNic**: I helped you?
**Player**: Yeah. Do you remember? You used an extremely powerful teleportation arcana...
**Player**: In an instant, many White Capes disappeared!
**Player**: They were also sent to several different locations so that they had to reassemble again...
**BeeNic**: Making people disappear, sending them to different places...
**BeeNic**: Sounds kind of like a time reset spell.
**Vundo**: Time reset?
**Vundo**: You're helping, Player.
**Player**: Then let's keep talking...
*Choice 4.3 - You saved Alcander.*
**BeeNic**: Al...cander?
**Player**: That's right! He and I are the ones who found you.
**Player**: He's right...
*Player turns around but sees that Alcander didn't follow them to the emergency room*
**Player**: Huh? Where's Alcander?
**BeeNic**: ?
**Player**: Where did he go?
**Player**: Anyway, he's a Furry Gyee, just like you!
**Player**: But he's a lion-type.
**BeeNic**: Lion...
**BeeNic**: Uh...
*BeeNic grips his head*
**Player**: Are you okay?
**BeeNic**: I'm all right, I just suddenly had a little headache...
**Vundo**: This could be a sign of his memories returning.
**BeeNic**: Keep talking...
*Conversation continues after choices*
*You tell BeeNic about the day's events.*
**BeeNic**: Wow, a lot happened today.
**BeeNic**: I'm sorry, I don't remember anything.
**Player**: Then, that arcana that can teleport people to other places...
**BeeNic**: The time reset spell!
**Player**: Time reset?
**Vundo**: You seem to remember this spell quite clearly.
**BeeNic**: Yeah, I remember...
**BeeNic**: I can teleport people to other positions in time. I can reset their location, their state, their memories...
**Player**: Their memories! Then can you use this arcana to restore your memories?
**BeeNic**: I can only reset my own location. I can't reset my own state or my memories.
**Player**: Okay... Darn, I didn't think it'd take long to restore your memories.
**Vundo**: There's nothing in the arcana literature about time arcana!
**Vundo**: Are you sure this isn't a result of his scrambled memories, Player?
**Player**: It can't be! Alcander and I saw it with our own eyes! He has this ability!
**BeeNic**: If I didn't trust you guys, you wouldn't remember that I existed.
**BeeNic**: What use would it be lying to me?
**Vundo**: Oh... Sorry...
**Vundo**: BeeNic, how much do you remember about yourself?
**BeeNic**: Myself?
**Vundo**: It doesn't matter how detailed it is. We need this information to help you find your family.
**BeeNic**: Hmm...
**BeeNic**: I only remember...
**BeeNic**: That I was looking for something...
*From a distance, Alcander snuck into the Flux emergency room and observes everyone talking to BeeNic*
**Alcander**: ...
**Alcander**: (smiles)
*Alcander quietly leaves*
*Continue to Intimacy Level 4*

### Intimacy Breakthrough

**This section contains spoilers for Intimacy Breakthrough scenes.**

**-Intimacy Level 4**

*Late night in Never Isle harbor.*
**Player**: (Yawn...)
**Player**: Ah~ Today's work is finally done.
**Player**: I'm gonna go have a cup of Light of Light and then take a bath.
**Player**: Who should I take a bath with today?
**Player**: Huh? That's...
**Player**: BeeNic?
**Player**: Why is he standing next to the lake?
**BeeNic**: ...
**BeeNic**: I need to...
**BeeNic**: (Falls) Ahh!
*Splash!*
**Player**: BeeNic!
*A while later, in the Hottie Bar on the airship.*
**BeeNic**: (Trembles)
**Player**: (Takes out a towel) Come on! Take your clothes off!
**BeeNic**: !!
**Player**: What are you looking at me like that for? I'm going to help you dry off!
**BeeNic**: All right...
**BeeNic**: (Takes off clothes)
**Player**: You're soaking wet...
**Player**: (Approaches BeeNic)
**BeeNic**: Allow me...
**Player**: All right! Then I'll bring you a blanket.
**BeeNic**: ...
*A few moments later...*
**Player**: (Drapes blanket over BeeNic's shoulders)
**BeeNic**: !!
**Player**: Don't be so alarmed. It's just me...
**BeeNic**: Oh, oh... (Twists towel in hands)
**BeeNic**: (smiles)
*BeeNic's expression has greatly improved.*
**Player**: Why did you jump in the lake, BeeNic?
**Player**: The water's freezing this time of year!
**Player**: You're lucky I saw you, otherwise you would've been done for!
**BeeNic**: I couldn't see where I was going, and...
**Player**: Well...
**Player**: What are you doing running around the harbor this late at night?
**BeeNic**: I need to leave!
**Player**: Leave? But you just recovered from your injuries...
**BeeNic**: What I'm looking for...isn't here.

**-Intimacy Level 5**

*Late night at the Hottie Bar.*
*You saved BeeNic, who had accidentally fallen in Lake Bliss.*
**BeeNic**: What I'm looking for...isn't here.
**Player**: All right. Even if what you're looking for isn't on Never Isle...
**Player**: You can take the airship during the day.
**BeeNic**: I don't have any money.
**Player**: Ah... I keep forgetting you don't have money and we brought you here to the island.
**Player**: But still, this is Never Isle!
**Player**: We've got the Order of Equality and the Oathblades here! These two organizations have their own intelligence networks...
**Player**: They can help you!
**Player**: So what is it you're looking for, BeeNic?
**BeeNic**: I...
**BeeNic**: I don't know...
**Player**: Why?
**BeeNic**: That I'm looking for something...
**BeeNic**: This much is very clear and real to me!
**BeeNic**: But the closer I get to it, the hazier it seems.
**Player**: BeeNic...
**Player**: Maybe if you get a good night's rest, you'll remember something.
**BeeNic**: No!
**BeeNic**: I slept long enough at the Arcana Academy.
*BeeNic gets up.*
**Player**: Sit with me!
**BeeNic**: !!
**Player**: Sit!
*BeeNic silently sits back down.*
**Player**: Listen, if you don't know what you're looking for, how are you supposed to find it?
**Player**: Lake Bliss is huge. You wouldn't be able to swim across it, right?
**Player**: Let me ask you this: do you have any idea how big Luxium is?
**Player**: Besides, you just recovered from a serious injury, and now you've fallen in an icy lake.
**BeeNic**: ...
**BeeNic**: You're right.
**Player**: Get some rest tonight!
**Player**: Tomorrow we'll take the airship around together.
**Player**: Maybe you'll remember something.
**BeeNic**: !!
**BeeNic**: Why do you want to help me?
**Player**: Because I don't want to have to jump into an icy lake to save you again!
**Player**: Achoo!
**Player**: I hope I don't get a cold...
**BeeNic**: ...
**Player**: Come on! I'll take you to your room.
*A while later, in the airship's guest room.*
**Player**: If you think this blanket is too thin, there's a thicker one in the wardrobe next to you.
**Player**: To get to the bathroom, just turn left out the door and it's the first room on the right-hand side.
*BeeNic sits on the bed looking at you.*
**Player**: Is there something on my face?
**BeeNic**: Nope...
**Player**: My room is at the top of the airship. If you need anything, you can use the communication crystal to reach me.
**Player**: Good night!
**BeeNic**: Player!
**Player**: Do you need anything?
**BeeNic**: No. Just...thank you.
**Player**: (smiles)
**Player**: You're welcome.

**-Intimacy Level 6**

*After BeeNic's near-drowning at the port.*
*BeeNic travels with you whenever he has time.*
*Never Isle, harbor...*
**BeeNic**: Where are we going today, Player?
**Player**: Hmm, let me see...
**Player**: Oh!
**BeeNic**: What's up?
**Player**: BeeNic, most of Luxium's towns...
**Player**: We've already...
**BeeNic**: Been to most of them?
**Player**: Been to most of them.
**BeeNic**: I knew it.
**Player**: Have you remembered anything, BeeNic?
**BeeNic**: Whether we're talking about my goal, or my memories...
**BeeNic**: I haven't remembered anything.
**Player**: I'm sorry, BeeNic.
**Player**: Don't get discouraged! There's got to be a way!
**BeeNic**: ...
**BeeNic**: Alas...
**Player**: You have anywhere you want to go, BeeNic?
**Player**: Today we'll go wherever you want to go!
*BeeNic shakes his head.*
**BeeNic**: The world is full of vitality and prosperity.
**BeeNic**: But what I sense the most is...
**BeeNic**: Strangeness.
**Player**: BeeNic...
**Vundo**: Hey! BeeNic! Player! You here?
**Player**: Principal Vundo! What are you doing here?
**Vundo**: I've brought some good news for BeeNic!
**BeeNic**: For me?
**BeeNic**: Did you find what I'm looking for?
**Vundo**: I'm sorry. I don't know about that.
**Vundo**: However, I have contacted a place where you can recuperate quietly.
**Player**: Recuperate quietly?
**Vundo**: Yeah! I spoke to an expert on traumatic amnesia at the Kaist church.
**Vundo**: Quiet recuperation is the number one way to recover lost memories.
**BeeNic**: Quiet recuperation?
**Vundo**: It's at the Kaist Church, where the environment is much better than the Arcana Academy's!
**Vundo**: The church also has doctors who can provide psychological guidance to help you recover your memories.
**Vundo**: You can whenever you're ready, BeeNic.
**BeeNic**: All right. I'm guessing it will be expensive, though.
**Vundo**: They don't want money, and you can stay as long as you want!
**BeeNic**: Why?
**Vundo**: Maybe you've forgotten, but you helped Never Isle's Oathblades save a dozen Gyees.
**Vundo**: This is the least we can do for you.
**BeeNic**: !!
*BeeNic turns to look at you.*
**BeeNic**: I...
**Player**: You should do it, since it can help you recover your memories!
**BeeNic**: ...
**BeeNic**: All right. Thank you, Principal Vundo.
**Vundo**: You're welcome!
*A while later, BeeNic moves into his new home at the Kaist Church.*
*Outside the Kaist Church.*
**Player**: Principal Vundo, taking BeeNic to the Kaist Church...
**Player**: You didn't just do it to help him recover his memories, did you?
**Vundo**: Very astute, Player.
*Principal Vundo takes a drag on his pipe.*
**Vundo**: The Arcana Academy is just trying to protect him.
**Player**: Protect?
**Vundo**: News about BeeNic and his time arcana have leaked...
**Vundo**: Recently, the Arcana Academy has found out that many people have come to visit, all to ask about the secret time arcana.
**Player**: What?! How can that be?!
**Vundo**: BeeNic's in a state of amnesia again and it's dangerous for him to leave Never Isle. All we can do is send him to the Kaist Church.
**Player**: That makes sense.
**Vundo**: BeeNic hasn't recovered his memory yet. He's being targeted someone with sinister motives.
**Vundo**: I can't even imagine how much he's suffering.
**Vundo**: I hope you'll spend more time with him when you're free, Player.
**Player**: Sure! Don't worry, Principal!

*Note: All of BeeNic's Date scenes take place before this script*
*At night, Never Isle harbor...*
**Billy**: Ah. Worked till midnight again.
**Player**: Good thing we get to rest tomorrow!
**Billy**: Yeah!
**Billy**: Huh? That person...
**Billy**: They look like that person you saved before. The one that fell into the water.
**Player**: BeeNic? He should be at the Kaist Church.
**Player**: It is him!
**Player**: You go rest, Billy. I'm going to go see him!
**Billy**: Uh huh...
*Scene - Never Isle Dock*
*...*
**Player**: BeeNic!
**BeeNic**: Oh! Player!
**BeeNic**: You...
*Player notices the tears in BeeNic's eyes*
**Player**: !!
*BeeNic rubs his eyes.*
**BeeNic**: What are you doing here?
**Player**: What happened? Did somebody pick on you?
**BeeNic**: N-no...
**BeeNic**: Who would dare do a thing like that?
**BeeNic**: If someone picked on me, I'd toss them into a time rift!
**Player**: So what happened?
**BeeNic**: ...
*BeeNic sighs.*
**BeeNic**: Tell me, Player.
**BeeNic**: Who am I?
**Player**: Huh? You're BeeNic.
**BeeNic**: 'BeeNic.'
**BeeNic**: That's just a name. Something to call me by.
**Player**: That's the whole point of a name.
**BeeNic**: Someone's identity should be determined by his past, his experiences, and his actions.
**BeeNic**: And 'BeeNic'...
**BeeNic**: Is a lone tower standing over nothing.
**Player**: A lone tower? Nonsense! Who told you that?
**BeeNic**: Nobody...
**BeeNic**: It's just an inference based on my limited amount of experience.
**Player**: Experience?
**BeeNic**: Today, I participated in a sharing session at church.
**BeeNic**: When we were introducing ourselves, everyone said who they were, their experiences, their problems...
**BeeNic**: But all I have is a name and...
**BeeNic**: An unattainable goal.
**BeeNic**: They didn't say anything, but I could tell.
**BeeNic**: They think I'm hiding something.
**BeeNic**: They think I'm a liar.
**BeeNic**: They don't understand...
**BeeNic**: I don't mean to blame them.
**BeeNic**: It's just...
**BeeNic**: My goal is among the stars.
**BeeNic**: There is nothing but fog and nothingness around me.
**BeeNic**: I...
**BeeNic**: I don't have a path to follow.
**Player**: BeeNic...
**Player**: That's not how it is at all!
**BeeNic**: I don't need your consolation.
**Player**: Trust me!
**Player**: BeeNic, let's close our eyes!
**BeeNic**: (surprised)
*BeeNic closes his eyes*
**BeeNic**: What are you going to do, Player?
**Player**: Can you see the road?
**BeeNic**: My eyes are closed. Of course I can't see the road.
**Player**: Then can you see your goal?
**BeeNic**: I don't even know what it is that I'm after.
**BeeNic**: I can't even see that stuff with my eyes open.
**Player**: All right. Then take a step in any direction you want, BeeNic!
**BeeNic**: Huh? That's dangerous!
*You grasp BeeNic's hand.*
**Player**: Take my hand!
**BeeNic**: !!
**BeeNic**: Well then don't blame me if I fall into the water!
*After walking in the dark with BeeNic for a while...*
**BeeNic**: I've walked all this way without bumping into a wall or falling into water. Strange...
**Player**: (smiles)
**Player**: Do you smell that, BeeNic?
**BeeNic**: Smell what?
**BeeNic**: Whoa!
**BeeNic**: Smells like flowers.
**Player**: It's time to open your eyes!
**BeeNic**: Where have you taken me? The middle of nowhere?
*BeeNic sees that they arrived at sakura tree in the center of Never Isle*
**BeeNic**: Whoa!
**Player**: See? It's not the middle of nowhere!
**BeeNic**: But...how can this be?
**Player**: BeeNic, maybe it's true that between you and your goal, there is a massive void.
**Player**: But look...
**Player**: As long as you take your eyes off the goals that are too far to reach...
**Player**: You'll find countless roads in this dark nothingness!
**BeeNic**: (surprised)
**BeeNic**: ...Hah...
**BeeNic**: Is this some kind of awkward and far-fetched philosophy?
**Player**: What's awkward about it?
**Player**: I think it's pretty cool...
*BeeNic looks at the blossoms on the tree*
**BeeNic**: It's so beautiful...
**BeeNic**: (smiles)
**BeeNic**: Thanks.
**Player**: Why?
**BeeNic**: I've been on Never Isle for a little while now.
**BeeNic**: But as for standing here and appreciating this tree in detail...
**BeeNic**: It's my first time.
**BeeNic**: Thank you, Player.
**Player**: (smiles)
**Player**: I don't have anything to do tomorrow so I was planning on taking a stroll around Never Isle.
**Player**: Wanna come, BeeNic?
**BeeNic**: How could I say no to an invitation like that?
**Player**: Then we'll meet here tomorrow morning?
**BeeNic**: Of course!
**BeeNic**: Wait!
**Player**: ?
**BeeNic**: Uh... Can I stay on your airship tonight?
**Player**: Huh?
**BeeNic**: I used a time reset to sneak out of the church.
**BeeNic**: If I go back and the priest catches me...
**BeeNic**: He'll call me a scoundrel.
**Player**: Okay! The airship's guest room is yours whenever you need it!
**Player**: But...
**Player**: You are a scoundrel.
**BeeNic**: Why, you!
*BeeNic blushes as Player playfully runs away*
**BeeNic**: Don't move!
*BeeNic chases after Player*

**-Intimacy Level 8**

*The day after viewing the sakura tree with BeeNic*
*You and Billy take BeeNic to the Rupor Show.*
*Outside, huge throngs of spectators wait to get inside.*
**BeeNic**: I've seen long lines here before.
**BeeNic**: So it was all because of the Rupor Show.
**BeeNic**: Is it a good show?
**Billy**: Good?
**Billy**: The Rupor Show is the best show in all of Luxium!
**Player**: Look at how passionate everyone is. That's how great the Rupor Show is.
**BeeNic**: The venue doesn't look very big. It's really crowded...
**Billy**: Don't worry, we got the best seats in the house, right in the front row!
**Billy**: Not only is it not crowded, but the view is great, too!
**Staff**: Are ticket numbers 130,131,132 here?
**Billy**: That's us! Let's go in!
*Some time later, the Rupor Show begins.*
**Rupor**: Ladies and gentlemen, are you ready?!
**Rupor**: Let the show begin!
**Rupor**: Tonight is performance night! Five men will complete through several rounds for the title of 'Drama Queen!'
**Rupor**: Our first contestant is a young arcanist from the Arcana Academy! Be careful that you aren't pulled in by his pretty boy looks...
**Rupor**: Next up is the strong, the buff...
*Meanwhile, in the audience...*
**BeeNic**: So this is what's considered a 'pretty boy?'
*BeeNic takes out a mirror.*
**BeeNic**: ♪~
**Billy**: Oh, really...
**Player**: Hey, where did you get that mirror?
**Rupor**: You've met our first four contestants. Now...
**Rupor**: We will invite one lucky audience member to come be our fifth contestant!
**Billy**: An audience member?!
**Billy**: Pick me! Pick me!
**Player**: Billy, there's more than a thousand people in the audience.
**BeeNic**: Your chances of being picked are next to 0.
**Billy**: One in a thousand is still a chance! Come on, guys! Let's pray to Ka that I get picked!
**Player**: ...
**BeeNic**: Hahaha!
**Rupor**: This lucky audience member is...
**Rupor**: Number 130!
**Player**: Huh?
**Billy**: Ah! I'm 131!
**Player**: I'm 132. So close!
**BeeNic**: !!
**BeeNic**: It's...it's me!
**BeeNic**: But Billy wants to go. I'd better...
*Before BeeNic can finish his sentence, the spotlights on stage all converge on him!*
**Rupor**: Congratulations to our lucky audience member!
**BeeNic**: Why?
*A few moments later, in the center of the stage.*
**Excited Spectator**: Wow, how furry! I could get used to this!
**Excited Spectator**: They must have picked the contestants ahead of time. How else would they pick someone so handsome?
**BeeNic**: Really...?
**Rupor**: Introduce yourself to the audience!
**BeeNic**: My name is...BeeNic.
**Rupor**: And you're from...?
**Player**: !!
**BeeNic**: ...
**BeeNic**: Nothingness...
*The whole auditorium falls silent.*
**Astonished Spectator**: He's so handsome!
**Rupor**: Well only a mysterious place like that could produce a strong Furry guy such as yourself!
**Rupor**: Everyone, let's welcome BeeNic, from 'nothingness'!
**Fanatical Spectator**: Wow! Marry me!
**Fanatical Spectator**: Over here!
**BeeNic**: (surprised)
**BeeNic**: (smiles)
**Fanatical Spectator**: Wow! His smile's so cute!
*A while later, after the Rupor Show has ended.*
*Due to his lack of performing experience, BeeNic was not crowned the 'Drama Queen'...*
*Nevertheless, due to his popularity with the crowd, many asked him for autographs and hugs.*
*In the end, they managed to escape with the help of BeeNic's time reset ability.*
*At the harbor in Never Isle.*
**Player**: That was...something else.
**BeeNic**: Yeah...
**Billy**: (Hugging BeeNic) You're so soft!
**BeeNic**: B-Billy!
**Billy**: I'm one of BeeNic's fans, too!
**Billy**: BeeNic looked so handsome and cool on stage!
**BeeNic**: Y-yeah?
**Player**: Billy, he was so nervous on stage that he couldn't even talk.
*BeeNic blushes*
**BeeNic**: That's not true!

**-Intimacy Level 9**

*Never Isle, at the Arcana Academy.*
**Vundo**: The Ice Spirit Festival is in a few days. There's a lot of work to be done...
**Vundo**: I need your help with it, Player.
**Player**: Leave it to me. BeeNic will help, too.
**Vundo**: Speaking of which, I just saw BeeNic. He looks a lot better than before.
**Vundo**: He's also become quite the celebrity lately.
**Player**: Yeah...
**Player**: Ever since the Rupor Show, BeeNic's come to love life on the island.
**Player**: I heard he's started work as a trainer at Peter's boxing gym.
**Player**: He's even found a personal trainer to work out with him in his free time.
**Player**: I remember the personal trainer goes by the name Abram.
**Vundo**: Abram?
**Vundo**: He's known for being very strict. There aren't many on the island who can withstand his training.
**Player**: BeeNic is a man capable of overcoming the pain of amnesia!
**Vundo**: That's right. He's overcome unimaginable pain.
**Player**: Has there been any news about those people after his time arcana, Principal Vundo?
**Vundo**: Ever since the Defense Force and the Arcana Academy raised their alertness, there hasn't been any news.
**Player**: Great!
**Player**: Right now, BeeNic is like a blank slate.
**Player**: He's finally embraced this splendid world of ours without reservation.
*Not far away, BeeNic waves to you.*
**BeeNic**: Player~
**Player**: BeeNic?
**BeeNic**: Haha, I was just looking for you.
*BeeNic approaches you with a big smile on his face.*
**Player**: Looking for me? What for?
**Player**: Whoa!
*BeeNic slaps you on the shoulder and your vision goes white.*
*When you come to, you find you're no longer at the Arcana Academy.*
**Player**: Where am I? In front of the Defense Force HQ?
**Player**: What am I doing here?
**Player**: I just passed by here...
**Player**: Is this the work of time reset arcana? But...why?
**Izumi**: Hey! Look out!
**Player**: What?
*Before you can react, two cans of paint come falling toward you.*
*This is the first time in your life you've been covered in paint.*
**Player**: Ah...er...
**Izumi**: We're repainting the Defense Force HQ. Where did you come from, Player?!
**Yaen**: Wow! Player got hit with a bullseye!
**Player**: I should've known it was you, Yaen!
**Yaen**: Hold on! This isn't my fault!
**Yaen**: This big dog over here did it!
**Player**: Big dog?
**BeeNic**: One of the seven wonders of the world...
**BeeNic**: Player's smile!
**Player**: What are you laughing at?!
*BeeNic suddenly turns his back to you, sticks out his butt, and wags his tail.*
**BeeNic**: Come get me, if you can!
**Player**: How dare you!
**Player**: I'll never forget this!
*A while later in the Hottie Bar on the airship...*
*BeeNic is tied to the top of the bar.*
**BeeNic**: Ow!!!
**Player**: Apologize!
**BeeNic**: (Sticks out tongue) Bleh~
**Player**: Oh, yeah?
**BeeNic**: Ahhhhhhh!
**Player**: Do it again, I dare you!
**BeeNic**: I'll die before I give up!
**Player**: I never expected Yaen to rub off on you, of all people...
**BeeNic**: Huh? What's that mean?
**Player**: Forget it!
**Player**: Clean me up! I'm unpresentable like this!
**BeeNic**: Untie me, and I'll reset time to back before I played a trick on you.
**Player**: All right. No more tricks!
**BeeNic**: Promise!
*BeeNic touches your shoulder...*
**Player**: Wow! I'm totally clean!
**Izumi**: Player! What are you doing back here?
**Player**: Huh?
*In the blink of an eye, you discover you're no longer at the Hottie Bar.*
*In front of you is the half-painted Defense Force HQ. Izumi is running toward you.*
*Just then, a paint can above you begins to fall...*

*Never Isle, main street...*
**Alcander**: Sorry, excuse me.
**BeeNic**: ...
**BeeNic**: Who are you?
**Alcander**: I believe I've already introduced myself.
**Alcander**: I'm Alcander.
**BeeNic**: You...know me?
**Alcander**: I believe this is the second time we've met.
**BeeNic**: The second time? Oh...
*BeeNic is overcome with a strong headache and clutches his head.*
*Alcander jumps behind BeeNic.*
**BeeNic**: Ugh...
**BeeNic**: Stop...
*In the blink of an eye, BeeNic appears in front of Alcander again.*
**BeeNic**: Don't run!
**Alcander**: You look like you need help.
**BeeNic**: Ugh... This is none of your business.
**BeeNic**: Who are you?
**Player**: BeeNic? Alcander?
**Player**: Are you guys fighting?
**Alcander**: We're not fighting. We're just...
**Alcander**: Having a misunderstanding.
**BeeNic**: Ugh...
**Player**: BeeNic? BeeNic!
**BeeNic**: I... I'm fine...
**BeeNic**: Who...is he, Player?
**Player**: He's Alcander...
**Player**: The day you came to Never Isle, he and I rescued you from thee White Capes.
**BeeNic**: You and he...rescued me?
**BeeNic**: So the first time we met was...
**Alcander**: Yeah, in the forest in northeastern Luxium.
**BeeNic**: Really?
**BeeNic**: ...
*BeeNic let Alcander through.*
**Alcander**: Thanks.
*After some time, at Hottie Bar...*
**Player**: Come on, drink some water.
**BeeNic**: Thanks...
**Player**: Do you feel better?
**BeeNic**: Yeah, my head's feeling a lot better now.
**Player**: How did you get into a fight with Alcander?
**BeeNic**: I was supposed to help the boxing gym put up some Ice Spirit Festival decorations today.
**BeeNic**: Along the way, I ran into...Alcander.
**BeeNic**: I suddenly felt anger, sadness, and nostalgia all at once.
**BeeNic**: It was a very confusing feeling.
**BeeNic**: It was followed by a splitting headache.
**Player**: Could it be your memory?
**BeeNic**: That's what I thought, too. So I followed him...
**BeeNic**: But he didn't seem any different from the other people of Never Isle.
**BeeNic**: Who is he, Player? What does he do?
**Player**: Alcander's an adventurer. He often does fortune telling on the side.
**BeeNic**: An adventurer and fortune teller...
**BeeNic**: Maybe I was too suspicious of him.
**BeeNic**: Uh...
*BeeNic clutches his head again.*
**Player**: You should go back to your room and rest...
**Player**: I'll help you with the Ice Spirit Festival decorations and all that.
*In the airship in BeeNic's room...*
*You tuck BeeNic in.*
**Player**: Get some rest.
**BeeNic**: I thought walking the past through the mist and nothingness was enough.
**BeeNic**: I never imagined that the darkness of the past would still find me.
**Player**: You should consider becoming a poet when you get better.
**BeeNic**: Heh...
*Continue to Trifle - Pursuit I*

*The opening ceremony of the Ice Spirit Festival went off without a hitch.*
*Everyone on Never Isle immersed themselves in the joy of the festivities.*
*But no one knew the story behind this peace.*
*Scene - Never Isle*
*Player and Alcander look over a collapsed BeeNic*
**Player**: Alcander!
**Player**: So BeeNic's okay?
**Alcander**: All I can say is his life isn't in danger.
**Player**: What can I do to help?
**Alcander**: ...
**Alcander**: There's nothing you can do.
**Alcander**: BeeNic is in a state similar to the one we found him in when we first met him in Luxium.
**Alcander**: Only this time, his Flux injury is even more serious!
**Alcander**: I've already given him emergency treatment. He should come to in a couple of days.
**Player**: Flux injury? In other words, BeeNic's going to lose his memory again?
**Alcander**: Yes, there's a good chance.
**Player**: He's going to lose his memory again...
**Player**: But it's not a big deal. I've witnessed BeeNic's lost memories, Alcander.
**Player**: When he wakes up, I'll tell him everything that happened!
**Alcander**: If I were you...
**Alcander**: I wouldn't tell him!
**Player**: Huh? Alcander!
**Player**: Do you know about BeeNic's past?
**Alcander**: I know a little.
**Player**: Do you have any idea how hard he's worked to discover his past?
**Player**: Why shouldn't I tell him?
**Alcander**: Tell him?
**Alcander**: And let him lose himself in his endless pursuit again?
**Player**: ...
**Player**: (angry)
**Alcander**: It isn't a past he needs.
*Scene - Flashback, Never Isle*
*The day before the opening of the Ice Spirit Festival.*
*BeeNic walks through Never Isle*
**BeeNic**: That guy...
*Alcander follows BeeNic from a distance*
**Alcander**: BeeNic entered the alley up ahead.
**Alcander**: Two weeks ago, BeeNic and a mysterious person made a deal.
**Alcander**: It's been a while since there was any movement.
**Alcander**: Could I be thinking too much?
**BeeNic**: Hey!
**Alcander**: !!
*BeeNic managed to sneak up behind Alcander*
**BeeNic**: Are you following me?
**Alcander**: ...
**Alcander**: Yes.
**Alcander**: The last couple of days I've seen you making deals with someone you shouldn't be talking to.
**Alcander**: I had no choice but to take interest.
**BeeNic**: What I do is none of your business!
**Alcander**: If you're going to endanger this world, then it is my business.
**BeeNic**: Uh...
**BeeNic**: Who do you think you are?
**Alcander**: Huh? You want to fight me?
**BeeNic**: Do not interfere.
**BeeNic**: !
**Alcander**: What's wrong?
**BeeNic**: Why isn't my body willing to fight?
**BeeNic**: Just who are you?
**BeeNic**: Could it be? Are you the one I've been looking for this whole time?
**Alcander**: (Shaking head) It isn't me!
**Alcander**: The one you're looking for...
**Alcander**: Is someone who can show you the future, not the past!
**BeeNic**: !!
**BeeNic**: Who are you?!
**Alcander**: I'm Alcander, an adventurer!
**BeeNic**: If you won't tell me the truth, then I have nothing to say to you!
**BeeNic**: Out of my way!
**Alcander**: Tell me who you made a deal with two weeks ago and what it was about...
**Alcander**: Then I'll get out of your way!
**BeeNic**: What I do is none of your business! I'm not going to tell you again!
**Alcander**: Really?
*Alcander transforms into Lion King form*
**Alcander**: Then I'll just have to force it out of you!
**BeeNic**: Come on!
**Alcander**: Stop it, BeeNic! I don't want to hurt you!
**BeeNic**: Stop talking! Don't try to get in my way!
*Player runs to the commotion to see Alcander in Lion King form arguing with BeeNic*
**Player**: Beenic? Alcander?
*Scene - Fade to black*
**Player**: The future...
**Player**: I wonder if BeeNic has found it.
**Alcander**: Martin didn't break his promise. He made a crystal to help restore BeeNic's memory.
**Alcander**: But BeeNic didn't accept it, and instead reset Never Isle's time over and over again.
**Alcander**: Do you know why?
**Alcander**: It stands to reason that Never Isle's survival or destruction doesn't have much to do with him, doesn't it?
**Player**: !!
**Alcander**: He found the person who can give him a future!
*Scene - Flashback, at the final bomb in the sewers*

*Player just intercepted Martin's attack and BeeNic used his time arcana to transport Martin back in time*
**BeeNic**: Don't, Player...
**Alcander**: It seems you've found someone who can give you a future.
*Alcander enters*
**BeeNic**: ...
**BeeNic**: Are you here to laugh at me?
**BeeNic**: To see me... Because my misconceptions about the past and my hesitation...
**BeeNic**: Killed the man who was most important to me.
**BeeNic**: You're right. Just have a good laugh.
**Alcander**: I have better things to do than that.
**Alcander**: Do you want to save him?
**BeeNic**: Do you even have to ask?!
**BeeNic**: I can reset his time phase, but...
**BeeNic**: (BeeNic looks at his own arms)
**BeeNic**: I don't have any strength left.
**Alcander**: Strength...
**Alcander**: Is not an issue.
**BeeNic**: What are you talking about?
**Alcander**: Martin will come back!
**BeeNic**: That's impossible! I already sent him to the current time phase yesterday!
**Alcander**: Have you forgotten that Never Isle was destroyed the past two times?
**BeeNic**: They destroyed the Oathblades and the Defense Force HQ, paralyzing Never Isle's ability to fight back.
**Alcander**: And...
**BeeNic**: And...
**BeeNic**: The Shadow Portal!
**Alcander**: That's right. The Shadows have already prepared a large portal.
**Alcander**: Martin will bring the Shadow reinforcements back to Never Isle!
**BeeNic**: Well!
**Alcander**: Of course, you can escape with the reborn Player.
**BeeNic**: No!
**BeeNic**: If I do that, he'll hate me for the rest of his life!
**BeeNic**: ...
**BeeNic**: All I can do is reset Never Isle's time again!
**BeeNic**: But even if I reset time, what should I do about Martin?
**Alcander**: From the past two times you've reset time, I've come to understand part of Martin's plan.
**BeeNic**: What? You've figured out the Shadows' plan?
**BeeNic**: Which is to say, if we reset time again, we'll have a chance!
**Alcander**: Correct!
**BeeNic**: ...
**BeeNic**: Then I need you to lend me your strength!
**Alcander**: Strength is not an issue. But you know...
**Alcander**: If you reset time three times in a row, your body...
**BeeNic**: Don't worry!
**Alcander**: The alternative would be a more tragic price to pay than my death!
*BeeNic looks down on Player*
**BeeNic**: (smiles)
**BeeNic**: In the little time I have remaining, I'll make more memories!
**Alcander**: ...
**Alcander**: (smiles)
*Alcander gets closer to BeeNic*
**Alcander**: I will give you the power to reverse the world's course!
*Alcander recharges BeeNic's Chrono Bracers*
**BeeNic**: Humph, I hate to say it, but...
**BeeNic**: Thank you!
*BeeNic uses his time arcana to reset Never Isle for a third time*
*Scene - Never Isle*
*Now...*
**Player**: BeeNic...
**Alcander**: Take this.
*Alcander hands you a pair of earplugs.*
**Player**: Earplugs?
**Alcander**: These aren't normal earplugs.
**Alcander**: First of all, putting them in will not affect your hearing.
**Alcander**: But more importantly, putting them in will let you hear BeeNic's inner monologue.
**Player**: I'll be able to hear BeeNic's inner monologue?
**Alcander**: BeeNic is a duplicitous dog.
**Alcander**: These will help you hear what he's really thinking.
**Alcander**: If they're given to someone who can give him a future, then he'll be happy.
**Player**: ...
**Alcander**: BeeNic will wake up in a couple of days. I should get going.
**Player**: Wait!
**Player**: You've known BeeNic for a long time, haven't you, Alcander?
**Player**: You really aren't the person he's been looking for all this time?
**Alcander**: It's not me.
**Player**: So what's going on?
**Alcander**: It's a long story...
**Alcander**: If you come to my world someday...
**Alcander**: I'll tell you the whole story.
**Player**: ...
**Alcander**: From now on, BeeNic's in your hands.
*Alcander leaves*
**Player**: ...
*Scene - Arcana Academy, outside the Flux emergency room*
*One week later...*
**Player**: Is BeeNic awake? Where is he?
**Player**: Oh! BeeNic!
*Player greets BeeNic who just exited the emergency room with Vundo*
**BeeNic**: You are...
**BeeNic**: Who is it?
**Player**: ...
**Player**: (smiles)
**Player**: I'm Player. Nice to meet you!
**BeeNic**: Oh...
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (When I look at this man...)
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (Why do I get a familiar feeling?)
*You hug BeeNic tightly.*
**BeeNic**: Oh!
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (How forward of him!)
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (Good thing he's my type. I should play hard to get...)
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (My attitude is so...oh!)
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (That's my G spot! Hold on...)
**BeeNic**: Please...
**BeeNic**: Please be gentle...

**-Intimacy Level 12**

*Nighttime, in the airship's Hottie Bar.*
**Hottie**: Welcome back, BeeNic.
**Hottie**: It has been 8 days, 15 hours, and 43 minutes since your last visit.
**Hottie**: The usual, sir? A glass of Sunriset?
**BeeNic**: Sunriset?
**BeeNic**: Uh, sure...
**Hottie**: Just a moment...
*BeeNic sits at the bar, blankly watching what's going on.*
**Player**: What do you think? Do you remember anything?
**BeeNic**: (Shakes head)
**BeeNic**: I used to live here, right?
**Player**: Yeah.
**BeeNic**: I don't remember...
**Player**: Don't worry. Take your time...
**Hottie**: Your Sunriset cocktail is ready.
**Hottie**: Please enjoy.
**BeeNic**: Oh...
**Player**: It's getting late. You can use the communal baths here.
**Player**: When you've showered, I'll take you to your room.
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (Shower!)
**BeeNic**: Cough...
**Player**: What... What's the matter?
**BeeNic**: It's nothing, it's just...some of my drink went down the wrong pipe.
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (Even if this guy's my friend, isn't that a little forward?)
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (What's he trying to pull?)
**Player**: ...
**Player**: Don't read too much into it. It's just a shower, nothing more.
**BeeNic**: Well...now that you mention it, I do need a shower.
*A few moments later...*
*In front of the communal baths...*
**BeeNic**: (Yawning) I'm tired.
**Player**: I'll take you...
**Player**: !!
**Player**: You didn't dry yourself off after your shower?!
**BeeNic**: I shook myself off.
**Player**: No! It's been cold the last couple of days, you're going to catch a cold! Hold on...
*A few moments later, you bring out a thick towel and wrap it around BeeNic.*
**BeeNic**: !!
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (What is this familiar warmth I feel?)
**Player**: Don't space out!
**Player**: Dry yourself off! You can't go to sleep till you do!
**BeeNic**: Yes, sir!
*A while later, in the airship's guest room.*
*BeeNic is sitting on the bed.*
**Player**: If you think this blanket is too thin, there's a thicker one in the wardrobe next to you.
**Player**: To get to the bathroom, just turn left out the door and it's the first room on the right-hand side.
**Player**: My room is at the top of the airship. If you need anything, you can use the communication crystal to reach me.
**BeeNic**: Hold on!
**BeeNic**: Can you sit with me for a while? I still have some questions...
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (He showered with me, got me wet, and helped me dry off again...)
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (And now that got me all warmed up, you're just going to leave? Is this a joke?)
**Player**: ...
**Player**: (You sit next to BeeNic.)
**BeeNic**: Uh, Player... (Comes closer)
**BeeNic**: (Tail begins to wag...)
*BeeNic wraps his right hand around your waist.*
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (Heh...Heh...)
**Player**: You aren't worried I'm going to take advantage of you?
**BeeNic**: W... what?
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (Hey, what am I doing? Hold on! You can't do this!)
**BeeNic**: I got a whiff of the life here from the Hottie Bar and this room.
**BeeNic**: You're not taking advantage of me. I can tell I used to live here.
**BeeNic**: Besides...
**BeeNic**: I'm stronger and faster than you. What could you possibly do?
**BeeNic**: If you took advantage of me, I'd toss you into a time rift!
**Player**: Sounds scary~
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (I need to be restrained, reserved, serious, aloof...)
**BeeNic**: Ahem! Let me get closer. I just want to thank you.
**BeeNic**: I lost my memory and you've been helping me. You even helped me find where I used to live...
**BeeNic**: I'm just grateful, that's all!
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (Hmm... Looks like this is all that's going to happen tonight. Forget it, you need to keep a long line to catch a big fish, anyway!)
**Player**: You're welcome! Then...
**Player**: (Kissing BeeNic's cheek)
**BeeNic**: Huh?
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (No way! Hey!)
**Player**: Good night!
**BeeNic**: G-good night...
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (You!)
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (That's the first kiss I can remember!)
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (When you think about it, a kiss isn't so bad.)
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (That's good! That was my first kiss. I shouldn't take it for granted!)
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (Ah...)

**-Intimacy Level 13**

*Airship, kitchen.*
**Player**: Ah...
**BeeNic**: I'm done for! I'm done for!
**BeeNic**: I'm going to be late for work!
**Player**: Nobody forced you to go to the Rupor Show yesterday and come back in the middle of the night!
**BeeNic**: My fans are so passionate about me!
**BeeNic**: Forget about yesterday!
**BeeNic**: If I'm caught, my coach will smack me!
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (That doesn't sound so bad. What are you so worried about, BeeNic?)
**BeeNic**: Why didn't you try to wake me up, Player?!
**Player**: I called for you twenty minutes ago, fifteen minutes ago, and ten minutes ago.
**Player**: Each time, you told me you wanted to sleep for five more minutes.
**BeeNic**: Oh. All right... What about breakfast?
**Player**: I've already packed it up for you.
**BeeNic**: That's the best news I've heard all day!
**BeeNic**: I'm already late. Even if I go at the speed of light, I'm going to be caught for sure.
**BeeNic**: I've got it! I'll reset my location to yesterday in the boxing gym's bathroom!
**Player**: Careful...
**BeeNic**: (smiles)
**Player**: Why haven't you left yet?
**BeeNic**: What's the rush, now that I know what I'm going to do?
*BeeNic leans in close to your face.*
**BeeNic**: Alas...
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (Give me a kiss. Give me a kiss and I can go.)
**Player**: All right, I get it...
**Player**: (Kisses BeeNic) Happy now?
**BeeNic**: Hey hey! See you tonight!
*BeeNic's feet begin to shine.*
*In the next instant, he's gone.*
**Player**: Uh...
**Player**: Anyway, it took over a month, but BeeNic's finally back to his old self.
**Player**: This is a good thing!
*Some time later, in the airship's guest room.*
*Looking at the mess in the guest room.*
**Player**: Sigh. I should help him clean up a little bit.
*As you fold the blanket, a notebook slides out.*
**Player**: Huh?
**Player**: Is this...BeeNic's diary?
**Player**: No, this notebook shows obvious signs of use. It looks like it's been used for at least three months.
**Player**: Hm...what's written inside?
*Choice 1.1 - (Forget it)*
**Player**: After all, it is in BeeNic's room.
**Player**: I shouldn't mess around in here.
*At night...*
**BeeNic**: I'm back!
**Player**: How was your day?
**Player**: Were you caught coming in late?
**BeeNic**: Heh, of course...
**BeeNic**: I was caught...
**BeeNic**: How could I have known that the boss was using the restroom at that very second when I suddenly appeared, sitting right on top of him?
**Player**: \*Puff\*...
**Player**: Oh, right. BeeNic, when I was cleaning your room today, I found a notebook...
**Player**: Are you writing a diary?
**BeeNic**: Oh. That notebook... It isn't mine.
**BeeNic**: It probably belongs to whoever was in the room before me.
**Player**: Uh huh...
*Choice 1.2 - (Open it and take a peek)*
**Player**: Hmm... Maybe it isn't BeeNic's? It's probably not a big deal to take a look.
*Opening the notebook...*
**Notebook page 1**: My name is BeeNic. I seem to possess some kind of time ability.
**Notebook page 1**: Someone told me I got caught up in some kind of war and was rescued then taken to this island, where I lived in a place called the 'Arcana Academy.'
**Notebook page 1**: I remember that I was looking for something, but I don't remember what or why.
**Notebook page 1**: Except for this, I remember absolutely nothing.
**Player**: Oh! BeeNic wrote this when he first came to Never Isle!
**Notebook page 5**: I tried to leave the island, but I got lost and fell in a lake. A man named Player saved me.
**Notebook page 5**: I felt a warmth when he wrapped me in a blanket. An all-encompassing warmth...
**Notebook page 5**: For a second, I thought he might've been the one I was looking for. But no, reason told me that wasn't possible.
**Notebook page 5**: It seems that Player didn't know me before. I also don't have any impression of him (though physically, he's definitely my type).
**Notebook page 5**: Player has been very kind to me. He even wants to help me find what I'm looking for, to find the thing my heart desires most.
**Notebook page 5**: I'd better be careful. He looks like a kind-hearted man. He might have sinister motives...
**Notebook page 5**: Or he might be a fool!
**Player**: Well, clearly I don't have sinister motives.
**Player**: Alright...
**Notebook page 12**: With Player's help, I've visited every city on the continent.
**Notebook page 12**: But I've recovered literally no memories. I don't remember anything about this world.
**Notebook page 12**: Principal Vundo of the Arcana Academy suggested I move to the Kaist Church and I accepted. Maybe they can help me recover my memory...
**Notebook page 12**: Supposing Ka actually exists.
**Notebook page 12**: I wonder if the beds at the church are as comfortable as the bed in the guest room on the airship.
**Player**: (Turns page)
**Notebook page 19**: Ka doesn't seem to be on my side.
**Notebook page 19**: My goal is in the heavens. The only things by my side are fog and nothingness. I don't have any path to travel...
**Notebook page 19**: However, Player has shown me the way through the fog and nothingness.
**Notebook page 19**: Though I swear he purposefully led me under the flower tree.
**Notebook page 19**: Anyway, there is one thing I'm certain of.
**Notebook page 19**: Even if there is no path to what I'm looking for, I won't stop moving forward!
**Notebook page 19**: Humph, this guy is much more clever than he looks.
**Player**: What kind of man did you take me for?
**Notebook page 27**: Life on the island is a lot more interesting than I thought it'd be.
**Notebook page 27**: But even more interesting to me is Player.
**Notebook page 27**: He doesn't belong to any Never Isle organizations, even though he does work for them every day.
**Notebook page 27**: But I can tell he's someone who unites everyone on Never Isle.
**Notebook page 27**: I'm also starting to feel a little embarrassed about always accepting his help.
**Notebook page 27**: Maybe I should find an opportunity to...
**Notebook page 27**: ...
**Notebook page 27**: And just now, that warm-hearted idiot went out to fight Shadows again.
**Notebook page 27**: The last time he fought the Shadows, he got hurt.
**Notebook page 27**: I don't think I should go anywhere. I'd better stay here. He needs my ability...
**Notebook page 27**: I...sigh... I can't let that idiot get hurt.
**Player**: BeeNic...
**Notebook page 35**: A man named Alcander has completely upended my otherwise peaceful life.
**Notebook page 35**: I don't know him, but when I saw him, I suddenly felt angry and sad.
**Notebook page 35**: He seems to come from my past.
**Notebook page 35**: Today, a young man with white hair sought me out. He said he can help me recover my memories.
**Notebook page 35**: He showed me a fragment of my past.
**Notebook page 35**: As a condition for restoring my memory, he needs me to give him the Never Beacon.
**Notebook page 35**: I told him I would, but...it doesn't feel right.
**Notebook page 35**: Forget it. I shouldn't think too much. He came to Never Isle, and he probably just wants to give the beacon to a friend.
**Notebook page 35**: Maybe I'll feel better if I take a shower with Player.
**Player**: Yeah. That's the end of my diary for now. So all along, it was that...
**Player**: Huh? Something else is written afterward.
**Notebook page 36**: Big moron!
**Player**: Huh? Judging by the writing, these two words were written recently.
**Player**: How did that happen?

**-Intimacy Level 14**

*Late night, outside the captain's room on the airship.*
**Player**: (Yawns)
**Player**: I had no idea this would be such a long day.
**Player**: I'd better take a shower and change into my pajamas, then hit the hay.
*Enters room.*
*You suddenly realize you're not alone.*
**BeeNic**: (Yawns)
**BeeNic**: You're finally back. Come over here...
*BeeNic holds open the blanket for you and gestures for you to lie down next to him.*
**Player**: You're not asleep in your room, BeeNic? What are you doing in mine?
**Player**: What time is it?
**BeeNic**: You're late!
**Player**: I told you today that the Shadowhunters needed my help and that I'd be back late.
**BeeNic**: You still shouldn't be this late, though.
**BeeNic**: I was just about to call the Defense Force, the Arcana Academy, and the Oathblades to go rescue you!
**BeeNic**: If I'd known you were going to be this late, I would've gone with you!
**Player**: Weren't you busy, though? You had work at the boxing gym, and the Rupor Show invited you to be the guest of honor.
**BeeNic**: Those things...
**Player**: Aren't as important as me? I never knew I was so near and dear to your heart!
**BeeNic**: W-what? What I was going to say was...
**BeeNic**: Where would I live if something happened to you?
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (Why are you asking questions you already know the answers to? Of course I care about you. If I didn't, who would?)
**Player**: All right, don't get angry...
**BeeNic**: Humph! Play the hero all you want, I'll still bring you back.
**BeeNic**: You'll never get away from me as long as you live!
**Player**: Terrifying...
**BeeNic**: All right. Get over here!
**BeeNic**: I've already warmed up the bed for you. You'll sleep safe and sound when you're nice and warm!
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (We're finally getting down to business. I haven't been with Player for several days now.)
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (We're going to get frisky!)
**Player**: But I just got back. I'm all sweaty...
**BeeNic**: Heh, I don't mind...
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (You tease! How long are you going to keep me waiting?!)
**Player**: I want to take a shower...
*Choice 1.1 - (Don't go for a shower and spend some quality time with BeeNic instead)*
**Player**: Forget it. I'll just take a shower in the morning~
**BeeNic**: You're the best, Player! (Happily wags tail)
*A few moments later...*
**BeeNic**: Hmm...
**Player**: Phew.
*BeeNic hugs you again.*
**Player**: Hey, take it easy! You're going to squeeze all the air out of me!
**BeeNic**: No...
**Player**: Let...let go! I won't run away!
**BeeNic**: It's a deal!
**Player**: Yeah!
**Player**: Phew.
**BeeNic**: Sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you.
**Player**: What's with you today?
**BeeNic**: It's nothing... Maybe I just missed you?
**BeeNic**: From now on, you can't stay out so late!
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (I thought you were about to dump me and that you weren't going to come back...)
**Player**: ...
**Player**: (Kissing BeeNic's forehead) All right. I promise!
**BeeNic**: Then... I have something to tell you.
**BeeNic**: The past couple days, I found a diary.
**BeeNic**: In it, was a story of someone like me who has amnesia and has a crush on someone else!
**Player**: Huh?
**Player**: (Could it be the diary I found the other day? That was...)
**BeeNic**: Although he never explicitly said he has a crush on that person...
**BeeNic**: Every page of the diary is about that person, thinking about that person.
**BeeNic**: Anyone who reads it can tell that the writer really likes that person!
**BeeNic**: But in the end, he never confesses his feelings!
**BeeNic**: So in the diary, I wrote two words...
**BeeNic**: Big moron!
**BeeNic**: Haha, appropriate, right?
*Choice 1.1.1 - You're right!*
**BeeNic**: You feel the same way, right, Player?
**BeeNic**: That moron not only didn't confess his feelings, but he was still obsessed with his past and finding the thing that was nearest and dearest to his heart.
**Player**: ...
**Player**: You also have something near and dear to your heart, don't you?
**BeeNic**: Right...
**BeeNic**: (Wraps you in his arms)
**BeeNic**: (blushes)
**BeeNic**: And I finally found it.
**Player**: BeeNic...
**BeeNic**: I'm not that moron. I don't want to hide.
**BeeNic**: Player, will I spend the rest of my future with you?
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (Will you promise me? I'm so nervous...)
**Player**: (smiles)
**Player**: Yes~
*Scene ends*
*Choice 1.1.2 - Uh...isn't it a little mean to call someone else a big moron?*
**BeeNic**: What's wrong? It's not like he can hear me.
**Player**: Ha... Haha...
**BeeNic**: That moron not only didn't confess his feelings, but he was still obsessed with his past and finding the thing that was nearest and dearest to his heart.
**Player**: ...
**Player**: You also have something near and dear to your heart, don't you?
**BeeNic**: Right...
**BeeNic**: (Wraps you in his arms)
**BeeNic**: (blushes)
**BeeNic**: And I finally found it.
**Player**: BeeNic...
**BeeNic**: I'm not that moron. I don't want to hide.
**BeeNic**: Player, will I spend the rest of my future with you?
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (Will you promise me? I'm so nervous...)
**Player**: (smiles)
**Player**: Yes~
*Scene ends*
*Choice 1.2 - (Take a shower. You can't sleep if you haven't showered!)*
**Player**: I'm sorry, I can't get to sleep without taking a bath first!
**BeeNic**: Oh...
*A few moments later in front of the communal baths at the Hottie Bar.*
**Player**: Phew. There's no one on the registration sheet.
*Suddenly, two fleshy hands pick you up...*
*and a few steps later, you're in the bath.*
**Player**: Oh! My bathrobe!
**BeeNic**: If you're going to take a bath, then take a bath! What do you need to wear a robe for?
**Player**: BeeNic!
*An instant later, you find yourself soaking in a warm and comfortable bath tub.*
*The bathroom is full of mist.*
**Player**: What's the rush?
**BeeNic**: Hey hey, I just couldn't wait, you know?
**Player**: Forget it, let's just take a bath. The water is perfect...
**Player**: Huh? Why is the water already at the perfect temperature?
**BeeNic**: It's been a couple of hours since we've seen each other, Player. Your thighs are so coarse.
**Player**: Huh? You're here?
**BeeNic**: What? This leg...
**Alcander**: That's my leg!
**Player**: What are you doing here, Alcander?
**BeeNic**: Oh, this body...
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (What an insane body? I think he's...)
**Player**: What's that look for, BeeNic?
**BeeNic**: Uh...
**BeeNic**: Hey, who are you?!
**BeeNic**: Don't think that your fit body and handsome looks entitle you to interrupt my bathtime with Player!
**Alcander**: You're the ones who interrupted my bathtime!
**Alcander**: I came here in strict accordance with the communal bath policy.
**Player**: BeeNic, it's all your fault for rushing in.
**BeeNic**: It's a bit weird taking a bath in the middle of the night.
**BeeNic**: Not to mention...
**BeeNic**: What's going on with your lower body, Alcander?
**Alcander**: I didn't know who was touching my leg...
**BeeNic**: Oh, uh... (Looks away)
**BeeNic**: And you, Player!
**Player**: Watching two stocky, furry naked guys...
**Player**: I think this is a normal response.
**Player**: What about you, BeeNic? You're having the same response!
**BeeNic**: It's only because it's been a few days since Player and I have...
**BeeNic**: It's not because of this guy!
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (It's true! Please don't misunderstand, Player!)
**Player**: I'm sorry, Alcander. I didn't mean for this to happen.
**Player**: I just wanted to take a bath.
**Player**: Now my head's all full of...
**Alcander**: Well, then. We need to resolve this little situation...
**Alcander**: How about...
**Alcander**: We take a bath together?
**BeeNic's Inner Monologue**: (Okay...)
*Scene ends*

### Dates

**This section contains spoilers for Date scenes.**

**Sad Yet Also Happy**

**-Intro**

*Airship, bridge.*
**???**: Ahh...
**???**: Awoo!
**Player**: Hmm? I think I hear something in the Hottie Bar.
*At the door to the Hottie Bar, you discover Beenic is there alone.*
*Hesitating...*
*With every step, BeeNic makes a strange and ecstatic sound.*
**BeeNic**: Ahh...
**Player**: What are you doing, BeeNic?
**Player**: Don't tell me you're doing something weird...
**Player**: (Go up and ask)
*Scene - Hottie Bar*
*BeeNic holds onto the bar in pain*
**BeeNic**: Ooh...
**Player**: Are you okay, BeeNic?
**BeeNic**: !!
*BeeNic turns around, triggering more aches*
**BeeNic**: Ah! Ow, ow...
**Player**: Judging by your expression, you're not hurt.
**BeeNic**: I'm experiencing the pleasure of growing muscles!
**Player**: Muscles?
**Player**: (Patting BeeNic's shoulder)
**BeeNic**: Ahhhhhhh!
**Player**: I... I'm sorry!
**BeeNic**: Now that one hurt...
**Player**: Sorry...
**Player**: What's going on, BeeNic?
**BeeNic**: The past couple of days, I've seen a few Furry Gyee around the island.
**BeeNic**: You know how strong they look.
**BeeNic**: I thought as a Furry, I shouldn't let myself fall behind.
**BeeNic**: So I went to the gym on Never Isle to find a personal trainer.
**BeeNic**: I wanted to train myself to strengthen my body.
**BeeNic**: And then...
**Player**: I think you overdid it.
**Player**: You shouldn't exercise so hard all of a sudden!
**Player**: You went to the gym to find a personal trainer?
**BeeNic**: He's a brawny and burly guy!
**Player**: I know who you're talking about: Lee!
**BeeNic**: He was the one I went looking for, but his class was too popular and I couldn't get in.
**Player**: Huh? Then who's the brawny and burly guy in the gym?
**BeeNic**: His name is Abram. I heard he's a veteran of the Shadowhunters.
**Player**: A veteran of the Shadowhunters? Haven't heard of him.
**BeeNic**: He's a proud and stoic guy.
**BeeNic**: Don't worry about the Shadowhunter training method...
*BeeNic wants to pat your back.*
*But his legs begin to tremble and he almost loses his balance.*
**BeeNic**: It hurts...
**Player**: Are you sure you didn't train too hard?
**BeeNic**: No, no... I'm fine.
**BeeNic**: I already feel...
**BeeNic**: Ahh...
**BeeNic**: My body is recovering.
**Player**: ...
**Player**: (Strains muscle)
**BeeNic**: Ughhhh!
**Player**: Well...

**-Do you want to change trainers? - 500 Intimacy**

**Player**: I'm afraid that Abram is bringing his military habits into his fitness class.
**Player**: Keep it up and you're going to get hurt.
**Player**: I know Lee.
**Player**: I'll have a word with him and get you in his class.
**BeeNic**: Don't!!
**Player**: ?
**BeeNic**: Actually...
**BeeNic**: Actually, you have no idea how strong he is!
**BeeNic**: He uses 'hands-on' guidance!
**Player**: BeeNic?
**BeeNic**: If you don't do it right, he hits you.
**Player**: That's not good.
**BeeNic**: Strict teachers breed brilliant disciples.
**BeeNic**: He says that once my body is strong...
**BeeNic**: He will teach me some elite hunter fighting skills!
**BeeNic**: When the time comes, I'm gonna...
**BeeNic**: Heh... Heh...
**Player**: You're thinking weird thoughts again, aren't you?
**BeeNic**: Nuh-uh!

**-You look good already, BeeNic! - 700 Intimacy**

**BeeNic**: Do you think I'm...
**BeeNic**: Handsome?
**Player**: Yeah! I can see the striations on your muscles! Your body is well-proportioned and you've got nice fur...
**Player**: You're cool, cute, and good-looking.
**BeeNic**: Uh...
**BeeNic**: I didn't expect you to hear that from you, Player!
**BeeNic**: I can't stand still!
**BeeNic**: The pursuit of a brawny and burly body never ends!
**BeeNic**: Just you wait, Player.
**BeeNic**: I'm gonna...
**BeeNic**: Gahhh! Ow!
**Player**: All right, BeeNic. I know.
**Player**: You should get some rest today and let your body recover.
**Player**: You can't train your muscles every day!
**BeeNic**: Alas...

**-I'll make you a delicious meal to help you recover your energy! - 900 Intimacy**

**BeeNic**: No! I need to watch my carbs.
**Player**: Wow! Such intense training...
**Player**: You're going to starve yourself to death like this.
**BeeNic**: But...
**Player**: Don't worry, I know what you need to eat to get buff.
**Player**: Leave it to a seasoned professional!
**Player**: I can't help you with weight training.
**Player**: But when it comes to eating, I think I can be of some use.
**BeeNic**: (blushes)
**BeeNic**: Even though I can take care of it myself...
**BeeNic**: Still, it's a generous offer.
**BeeNic**: I can't refuse.
**BeeNic**: So thank you!
**Player**: Leave it to me!

**Two Old Acquaintances**

**-Intro**

*Never Isle, Main Street.*
**Player**: BeeNic, look! There's a promotion at the Never Isle Market!
**Player**: Wanna go check it out?
**BeeNic**: Sure. Maybe there will be some interesting things there.
*Just then, you hear the sound of armor hitting the ground from behind.*
*Two warriors in Shadowhunter armor are standing behind you.*
**Player**: Huh? You're...
**Shadowhunters Warrior A**: Captain!
**Shadowhunters Warrior B**: Loong Mountain Defensive Line, Fifth Legion! Reporting for duty, sir!
**Player**: Warriors...
**Player**: You guys must be mistaken.
**Shadowhunters Warrior A**: We're not talking to you, Player.
**BeeNic**: Uh...
**BeeNic**: Find me?
**Player**: You're here for BeeNic?
**Shadowhunters Warrior A**: Captain BeeNic, we are reporting for duty!
**Shadowhunters Warrior B**: Please give us our orders!
**Player**: I think they're...
**Player**: Your former subordinates?!
**BeeNic**: My...subordinates?
**Player**: Maybe they know about your past. It's worth asking them!
**BeeNic**: Hmm...
**Player**: Actually, you two...
*You tell the two soldiers about your journey to Never Isle with BeeNic...*
*Along with the fact that BeeNic has amnesia.*
**Shadowhunters Warrior A**: What?
**Shadowhunters Warrior A**: The legendary Captain BeeNic has amnesia?
**Shadowhunters Warrior B**: Damned White Capes! How dare they do this to an officer of the Shadowhunters!
**Shadowhunters Warrior B**: Give us the order, Captain. We'll take some soldiers and decimate them!
**Player**: Uh, the White Capes aren't the point.
**Player**: The most important thing right now is to help BeeNic recover his memories!
**Shadowhunters Warrior B**: Got it!
**BeeNic**: If I'm understanding you right, I'm the Shadowhunters'...
**BeeNic**: Captain?
**Shadowhunters Warrior A**: Yes!
**BeeNic**: I'm a Shadowhunter...
**Player**: Do you remember something now, BeeNic?
**BeeNic**: (Shakes head)
**BeeNic**: Nothing's coming to mind.
**Player**: You guys just said...
**Player**: You're Shadowhunter warriors from the Loong Mountain Defensive Line, Fifth Legion.
**Player**: Does that mean that BeeNic is captain of the Fifth Legion at Loong Mountain?
**Shadowhunters Warrior B**: No!
**Player**: Why?
**Shadowhunters Warrior A**: We've been transferred from Loong Mountain so that we can train at the Shadowhunter base!
**Player**: I see. Are you two sure that you know where you're supposed to transfer to?
**Shadowhunters Warrior B**: We have no idea!
**Player**: What the hell...
**Shadowhunters Warrior A**: Finding the right unit is our first mission!
**Shadowhunters Warrior B**: Who'd have thought? Captain BeeNic lost his memory...
**BeeNic**: Sorry...
**BeeNic**: I can't give you any orders in my current state. I have nothing to teach you.
**Shadowhunters Warrior B**: Please, Captain BeeNic. Don't worry!
**Shadowhunters Warrior B**: We may not know that much about your past...
**Shadowhunters Warrior B**: However, warriors that have been selected for transfers such as yourself must be among the best the Shadowhunters have to offer!
**Shadowhunters Warrior B**: Captain BeeNic, I'm sure you're a brave and fearless hero with countless achievements!
**BeeNic**: I'm a hero?
**BeeNic**: Even though I can't remember anything...
**BeeNic**: Thank you.
**Shadowhunters Warrior A**: Don't worry, Captain. We'll tell our superiors in the Shadowhunters about what's happened to you.
**Shadowhunters Warrior A**: They'll find your unit!
**Player**: Hmm. The Shadowhunter hierarchy is quite complicated. Who knows when you'll get a reply?
**Player**: You guys said that finding your unit is your first mission.
**Player**: Can you tell us more about this 'mission'?
**Shadowhunters Warrior B**: Of course!
**Shadowhunters Warrior B**: Our mission is to 'go to Never Isle and find the Werewolf Shadowhunter!'
**Shadowhunters Warrior B**: 'The Werewolf Shadowhunter is the Captain of the unit you're supposed to transfer to!'
**Shadowhunters Warrior A**: We've also been given a password for the mission to prove our identity.
**Shadowhunters Warrior A**: But since the captain has lost his memory, I supposed it's not necessary.
**Player**: Hold on, you just said...werewolf?
**Player**: But BeeNic is a hound.
**BeeNic**: ...
**Shadowhunters Warrior A**: But we've searched all over Never Isle and Captain BeeNic is the only one who fits the bill.
**Shadowhunters Warrior B**: With a sturdy body like that, he's received the Shadowhunter physical training, for sure!
**BeeNic**: When did you accept this mission?
**Shadowhunters Warrior A**: Captain!
**Shadowhunters Warrior A**: A week ago, sir! Directly from the Fifth Legion Commander!
**Player**: A week ago...
**BeeNic**: I lost my memory two weeks ago...
**Shadowhunters Warrior A**: Oh!
**Shadowhunters Warrior B**: So you mean...
**???**: You fools!
*Captain Morgan and two of his Shadowhunter warriors approach*
**Player**: Captain Morgan!
**Shadowhunters Warrior A**: What? He's a Shadowhunter Captain, too?
**Player**: Yes, he is the Defense Captain of the Mona Altar. Captain Morgan has led his troops during many Shadow attacks.
**Player**: I'm afraid that the person you two are looking for...
**Shadowhunters Warrior B**: Brother, I've heard that the Kaigon market street is shut down. Do you know anything about this?
**Morgan**: Kaigon? There's an emergency to the north! Who cares about Kaigon?!
**Shadowhunters Warrior A**: Well, he knew the password.
**Morgan**: Fools, can't you see who I am?!
**Morgan**: What would you two have done if I hadn't shown up? You would've walked off with Player and this Gyee?
**Shadowhunters Warrior**: We're very sorry!
**BeeNic**: Alas...
**BeeNic**: I knew it.
**Player**: BeeNic...

**-(Even though it was a mistake, it's still nice to make new friends) - 900 Intimacy**

**BeeNic**: ...
**Player**: BeeNic, let me take this opportunity to introduce you.
**Player**: This is Captain Morgan. He is the Shadowhunter Captain of the defenders at the Mona Altar.
**BeeNic**: I see, you're that brave and fearless hero with countless achievements.
**Shadowhunters Warrior A**: I'm very sorry, Mr. BeeNic.
**Shadowhunters Warrior A**: That was very rude of us.
**Shadowhunters Warrior B**: It would seem that you're not the captain we were looking for.
**Shadowhunters Warrior B**: We're sorry. We made a big mistake. Your memory...
**BeeNic**: It's okay, you didn't mean to...
**Morgan**: You lost your memory?
**Morgan**: Perhaps I shouldn't blame these two for mistaking you for me.
**Morgan**: You and I have a lot in common!
**BeeNic**: A lot in common?
**Morgan**: Ten years ago, I lost my memory, too.
**BeeNic**: Captain Morgan...
**Morgan**: For the first few years, I was walking around in a daze. I almost died in the middle of the desert.
**BeeNic**: So then how did you get your memory back?
**Morgan**: I didn't!
**BeeNic**: What!
**Morgan**: There's no point in focusing on the past, young man.
**Morgan**: As long as you always keep moving and keep pushing forward...
**Morgan**: Your journey will never end!
**BeeNic**: (surprised)
**Morgan**: I still need to take these greenhorns to the altar for their training. We'll be leaving now.
**Morgan**: BeeNic! Come pay me a visit the next time you're in the Red Desert!
**Morgan**: I'll treat you to a drink, brother!
**BeeNic**: Brothers...
**BeeNic**: Of course!

**-(Take BeeNic and leave) - 700 Intimacy**

**Player**: We had originally planned on going to the market.
**Player**: But then we got side-tracked.
**Morgan**: I'm sorry. This guy, Player...
**Morgan**: It's my fault.
**Player**: Forget it...
**Player**: Let's forget all this, BeeNic. Let's go to the market!
**BeeNic**: Forget...
**BeeNic**: All I can do is forget.

**-(Get angry on BeeNic's behalf) - 500 Intimacy**

**Player**: What's wrong with you two?
**Player**: Don't you know how cruel it is to give someone hope and then let them down?!
**Shadowhunters Warrior**: S... Sorry...
**Player**: I never thought Shadowhunters could ever be so untrustworthy!
**BeeNic**: It's all right, Player...
**BeeNic**: It's my fault.
**BeeNic**: I should've realized sooner.
**BeeNic**: Getting my memory back won't be so easy.

**A Man Without Past**

**-Intro**

*Never Isle...*
*BeeNic stands at the entrance to the Arcana Academy.*
**BeeNic**: Ah...
**Player**: BeeNic?
**BeeNic**: Player...
**Player**: You look sad. What's wrong?
**BeeNic**: Oh, it's nothing...
**Player**: (Ask again)
**Player**: Can I help?
**BeeNic**: You...
**BeeNic**: You're too kind.
**Player**: It's all right. I don't have anything to do right now, anyway!
**BeeNic**: Oh. Okay...
**BeeNic**: I came to the Arcana Academy today to get some Flux treatment from the principal.
**Player**: Flux treatment? I thought you were already healed?
**BeeNic**: (Points at his head)
**BeeNic**: Not yet.
**Player**: I see. You're here to restore your memory.
**Player**: Well then, why aren't you going in? Principal Vundo isn't here?
**BeeNic**: The principal...
**BeeNic**: Right now, he's waiting for me.
**Player**: Huh?
**BeeNic**: Truth is, I don't know whether I should go in.
**Player**: What happened?
**BeeNic**: After two days of Flux treatment, I can't eat anything.
**BeeNic**: No matter what I eat, I just throw it up.
**BeeNic**: What's more, lately my headaches have been getting worse and worse.
**BeeNic**: And I'm starting to have a hard time remembering things.
**Player**: !!
**BeeNic**: The principal said this Flux treatment is an experimental therapy.
**BeeNic**: These side effects are to be expected.
**Player**: Why...
**Player**: Well what about your old memories? Have you remembered anything since you started the treatment?
**BeeNic**: (Shakes head...)
**BeeNic**: No...
**Player**: So you're saying this treatment might be useless?
**BeeNic**: (sad)
**BeeNic**: But I don't know how else I'm going to recovery my memories.
**Player**: Alas...

**-Grit your teeth and bear it! - 700 Intimacy**

**BeeNic**: (sad)
**BeeNic**: Yeah, you're right!
**BeeNic**: Grit my teeth...
**BeeNic**: Maybe after I finish the treatment, I'll remember!
**Player**: Yeah! You can do it!

**-Let's go for a spin. - 900 Intimacy**

**BeeNic**: A spin?
**Player**: Yeah. Take a seat on my airship. Let's go for a ride!
**BeeNic**: But...
**BeeNic**: But Principal Vundo is waiting for me.
**Player**: Go say hi to him and ask him to wait a little longer.
**Player**: You need to get away for a bit and relax.
**Player**: Maybe once you calm down, you'll be able to make a decision.
**BeeNic**: ...
**BeeNic**: Maybe you're right.
*A few moments later...*
*Never Isle, harbor...*
**Player**: What do you think? Nothing better than taking an airship for a ride over Luxium, right?
**BeeNic**: Yeah! I'd love to have an airship like this!
**Player**: Well that's what you've got me for!
**Player**: You don't need to hire a pilot.
**BeeNic**: (blushes)
**BeeNic**: Your airship...it's a little cramped!
**Player**: Oh? Then I look forward to seeing your big airship!
*A few moments later...*
*Back at the Arcana Academy*
**Player**: How about it, have you reached a decision?
**BeeNic**: ...
**BeeNic**: I've decided to stop the Flux treatment!
**BeeNic**: I don't know whether the Flux treatment will help me recover my memories.
**BeeNic**: But I do know one thing.
**BeeNic**: The pleasure of riding on your airship and spending time with you, Player...
**BeeNic**: This I could never forget!
**Player**: (smiles)

**-If the treatment isn't helping, then stop it! - 500 Intimacy**

**Player**: Why is the Arcana Academy using experimental treatments?
**Player**: I'm going to have a word with Principal Vundo about this!
**BeeNic**: Hold on!
**BeeNic**: Don't go.
**BeeNic**: I asked the principal to give me the treatment.
**Player**: !!
**Player**: Since it's given you nothing but side effects, you should stop it now!
**BeeNic**: But I don't have any other choice.
**Player**: ...
**BeeNic**: Thank you for your concern, Player.
**BeeNic**: But I don't have any choice except to continue the treatment.

**Pursuit I**

The annual Ice Spirit Festival is about to begin and Never Isle is busy making preparations. The Defense Force, the Oathblades, and the Order of Equality have stepped up their surveillance. After all, this is one of Never Isle's most important holidays and it must go off without a hitch!

**-Part 1**

*Never Isle...*
*The citizens of Never Isle are gathered on the street, celebrating the Ice Spirit Festival*
**Merchant**: Special Ice Spirit Festival Deals!
**Merchant**: All items in this store are 69% of their original price!
**Merchant**: And we have new Ice Spirit Festival items!
*Player walks down the street, observing the festivities*
**Player**: Tomorrow is the Ice Spirit Festival.
**Player**: Before I even knew it...
**Player**: Another year has passed.
**Panicked Passerby**: They're gonna fight!
**Panicked Passerby**: These two guys look like bad news. Let's get out of here!
**Player**: Huh?
*You suddenly sense two unbelievably powerful Fluxes.*
**Player**: This feeling...
*Player runs to the commotion to see Alcander in Lion King form arguing with BeeNic*
**Alcander**: Stop it, BeeNic! I don't want to hurt you!
**BeeNic**: Stop talking! Don't try to get in my way!
**Player**: BeeNic? Alcander?
**Alcander**: Arooo...
**BeeNic**: (angry)
*Alcander's flames begin to rage*
**Player**: This isn't good...
*Player gets between the two*
**Player**: Stop! The two of you are going to blow up the whole island!
**BeeNic**: Player?
**Alcander**: ...
*Alcander calms down*
*...*
**Player**: The two of you are fighting again?
**Alcander**: I must stop BeeNic!
**Player**: Why?
**Alcander**: BeeNic's made some kind of deal with a suspicious character!
**Player**: A deal?
**Player**: Who's the suspicious character?
**Alcander**: ... I have no idea.
**Player**: What was the deal?
**Alcander**: I don't know.
**Player**: Well...
**Player**: You made a deal with someone, BeeNic?
**BeeNic**: ...
**BeeNic**: I helped a customer of the boxing club open a membership.
**Alcander**: (angry)
**Player**: I see...
**BeeNic**: Is that a problem, Alcander?
**Alcander**: If you really were just helping someone with a membership, of course it isn't a problem!
**BeeNic**: In that case, please stop following me.
**BeeNic**: Stay out of my life!
**Player**: Clearly this was just a misunderstanding.
**Player**: Alcander isn't a bad guy, BeeNic.
**Player**: Alcander, you misunderstand BeeNic.
**Alcander**: (angry)
**BeeNic**: Humph!
**Player**: Sigh. How can I help them reach an understanding?
**Player**: How about this!
**Player**: Tomorrow night, the Arcana Academy Plaza is holding an Ice Spirit Festival celebration.
**Player**: How about the three of us go together?!
**BeeNic**: What? With him?
**BeeNic**: Are you joking?!
**Alcander**: ...
*Alcander reverts back to Half-Beast form*
**Alcander**: I don't have a problem with that.
**Player**: Alcander's in!
**Player**: BeeNic?
**BeeNic**: No way!
**Player**: You're a good pup, BeeNic.
**Player**: Billy and Kitty are going to be there, too.
**BeeNic**: Humph! No! Way!
**Player**: BeeNic...
**BeeNic**: Rrrgh!
**BeeNic**: Fine, whatever! If it'll get you to stop bugging me...
**Player**: Awesome!
**Player**: Well then, see you guys tomorrow evening!
*A few moments later...*
*Player and BeeNic walk back to the airship*
**BeeNic**: Player...
**Player**: Huh?
**BeeNic**: ...
**Player**: Is this because of Alcander?
**Player**: Trust me, Alcander isn't a bad guy.
**Player**: Besides, I'll be there tomorrow.
**BeeNic**: No...
**BeeNic**: It's not about him.
**Player**: That's...
**BeeNic**: (Looks off to the side)
**BeeNic**: Player, I...
**Player**: ?
**BeeNic**: (Hesitating)
**BeeNic**: Player...
**BeeNic**: If, and I do mean if...
**BeeNic**: I found a way to recover my memory...
**BeeNic**: Should I do it?
**BeeNic**: If I remember, I might leave here then go pursue my goal.
**Player**: Yeah...
*Choice 1.1 - Whatever decision you make, I will support you!*
**Player**: If there's any way that I can help, just let me know!
**BeeNic**: (smiles)
*Choice 1.2 - Just so long as you don't forget about us.*
**BeeNic**: Forget?
**BeeNic**: The rascally captain who covered me with a blanket and also spanked my behind?
**BeeNic**: How could I ever forget about you?
**Player**: Ha! I'll take that as a compliment.
*Choice 1.3 - I hope you'll seize the opportunity if you get it.*
**BeeNic**: But I might leave...
**Player**: We've spent a lot of time together recently.
**Player**: If you need to go, I can't stop you.
**BeeNic**: ...
**Player**: Your memories are part of you.
**Player**: If you really have a chance to get them back, I hope you'll take it.
**Player**: As your friend, I want to see you whole again.
**BeeNic**: Thanks...
*Conversation continues after choices*
**Player**: You should go to bed early tonight. Tomorrow is the Ice Spirit Festival.
**Player**: We're going to have a great time!
*Player leaves*
**BeeNic**: (sad)
*The next night, on the airship.*
**Billy**: Captain! Captain!
**Billy**: It's time to get up!
**Player**: Huh?
**Billy**: It's almost nighttime! We need to go join the Ice Spirit Festival opening!
**Player**: The Ice Spirit Festival...
**Player**: Oh! Oh yeah! Let me just get dressed first.
*Scene - Airship bridge*
*A few moments later...*
**Billy**: Hurry up, Captain.
**Player**: Stop rushing me! I'm almost ready!
**Kitty**: Sigh. I knew Billy likes to sleep in, but you, Player?
**Player**: Who would've thought that the Oathblades would need my help in the middle of the night?
**Player**: I didn't get back to the airship till this afternoon. I was taking a little nap when you guys woke me up.
**Kitty**: I'm worried if we don't get a move on, all the good food at the market will be sold out.
**Player**: Haha, don't worry about that.
**Player**: I bought lots of dried fish and fresh fish pieces from Lukka and Hank yesterday.
**Player**: I got several days' worth!
**Kitty**: Wow! Great!
**Kitty**: You're the best, Player!
**Billy**: Hey Captain, when we get to the market, why don't you come with me to check out some mechanical components?
**Billy**: I've had this wrench for a year at this point and it's time for an upgrade.
**Player**: All right! Once the Ice Spirit Festival is open, I'll go with you!
**Billy**: Thank you, Captain!
**Player**: Where's BeeNic?
**Billy**: Oh, BeeNic left early this morning.
**Billy**: Seemed like there was a lot of work waiting for him at the boxing club.
**Player**: Indeed. They're busiest during holidays.
**Player**: No matter. We made a date yesterday. We'll see him at the opening ceremony.
**Kitty**: Well then, let's get going!
**Player**: Let's go!
*Billy and Kitty leave*
**Player**: Another year has passed.
*Player joins them*
*Scene - Never Isle harbor*
*Many people are gathered at the harbor, enjoying the Ice Spirit Festival decorations*
**Billy**: Look how lively it is!
*As Billy, Kitty and Player walk towards the city center, a small spark of lighting follows them*
*Billy, Kitty and Player walk past the city gate and towards the sakura tree in the center of the city*
**Kitty**: Look at all those people over there.
**Player**: It must be some sort of activity.
**Player**: We've got some time right now. Let's go see what's going on.
*A few moments later...*
**Kaist Hierophant**: Oh! It's the Hand of Ka, Master Player!
**Player**: Just call me Player...
**Kitty**: What are you guys up to here?
**Kaist Hierophant**: We're praying to the Flower Tree.
**Player**: Praying...
*The Kaist Hierophant takes out a small magic item.*
**Kaist Hierophant**: Make your new year's wish beneath the flower tree then use this instrument to pray for Ka's blessing.
**Kaist Hierophant**: Every resident of Never Isle can pray.
**Player**: I see. So it's a kind of new year's wish activity.
**Player**: Hey Kitty, Billy. Let's pray.
**Billy**: Yeah!
*Billy closes his eyes...*
**Billy**: May our travels in the airship this year be smooth and safe.
*A bright ball of light appears before Billy and then fades*
**Kitty**: It's my turn, it's my turn!
**Kitty**: For the new year, I want never-ending dried fish!
**Player**: Hahaha, I should've expected you'd make a wish like that, Kitty.
**Kitty**: Also, I hope the White Capes and Shadows all die!
**Kitty**: I wish for Yaen to have an endless supply of candy that never rots his teeth no matter how much he eats!
**Kitty**: I also wish that Principal Vundo gives me less homework this year. I've got too much to finish...
**Kitty**: And please bless Billy in the new year...
**Billy**: Kitty...
**Kitty**: Make sure he falls for all of my tricks and jokes! Every last one of them!
**Billy**: Ah! Kitty!
**Player**: All right, all right. You shouldn't make too many wishes.
**Player**: If you make too many, then none of them will come true.
**Kitty**: What?
*Kitty's eyes light up and he puts his hands together.*
**Kitty**: Ka is the best! Ka is the greatest! It's okay! Just use your omnipotent power and make an exception for me.
**Player**: Ha! Ha! Ha!
*A bright ball of light appears before Kitty and then fades*
**Player**: I'm up next.
**Player**: Let me think...
*Choice 2.1 - (Wish for a man...)*
**Player**: In the new year, give me a man who will sleep with me.
**Player**: I hope he's...
*All Choices: Choice 2.1.1 - "Cute!" OR Choice 2.1.2 - "Strong!"*
**Player**: I also wish...
*All Choices: Choice 2.1.3 - "That he will love me and protect me!" OR Choice 2.1.4 - "That every night he will..."*
**Player**: (Use the device...)
*Choice 2.2 - (Wish for peace...)*
**Player**: I hope that in the new year, all my Gyee friends will be healthy and safe.
**Player**: May the Oathblades win all their battles and the Order of Equality make a ton of money. May the Arcana Academy also enjoy great success...
**Player**: I wish that Never Isle, home of the Gyee...
**Player**: Thrives and enjoys peace.
**Player**: (Use the device...)
*Choice 2.3 - (Wish to return home...)*
**Player**: ...
**Player**: I hope that all my friends back on Earth are safe and healthy.
**Player**: I...
**Player**: I hope that I can return home soon and be with them again.
**Player**: (Use the device...)
*Scene continues after choices*
*Player waits but nothing happens*
**Player**: Huh?
**Kaist Hierophant**: This can't be. Is it broken?
**Kaist Hierophant**: It doesn't look broken.
**Player**: My rotten luck.
**Billy**: Captain...
**Player**: It's nothing...
**Player**: It's just a superstition anyway.
**Kaist Hierophant**: I'm very sorry.
**Player**: It's fine!
**Player**: Billy, Kitty, let's go.
*A few moments later, in the Arcana Academy plaza.*
*Billy, Kitty and Player look through the throng of people in the plaza*
**Player**: Hey Billy, Kitty - have you guys seen BeeNic or Alcander?
**Billy**: No...
**Kitty**: Me neither. They should be easy enough to find.
**Player**: This is strange...
**Player**: We promised to meet today.
**Player**: I wanted to take this opportunity to improve their relationship.
**Player**: I didn't think they'd both be no-shows.
**Billy**: Principal Vundo is getting ready to speak!
**Kitty**: Good, I could really use a nap.
**Player**: Kitty...
**Player**: Nevermind. Forget about BeeNic and Alcander.
**Player**: Let's go listen to the principal speak.
*Vundo address the crowd in front of a large Ice Spirit Festival tree in the center of the plaza*
*Next to him are Markus and Miles representing the Oathblades, General Will and Eddie representing the Order of Equality, and Mira representing the Defense Force*
**Vundo**: Ladies and gentlemen...
**Vundo**: Thank you for joining the Ice Spirit Festival opening ceremony.
**Vundo**: We are here to welcome in the new year.
*During the speech, Player fumbles with a device*
**Player**: Huh? What's BeeNic doing?
**Player**: I can't even reach him with the secret crystal.
**Player**: I hope he's all right.
**Billy**: Oh. Don't worry, Captain.
**Billy**: BeeNic is on Never Isle. What's the worst that could happen?
**Kitty**: That's right! Don't forget, the Ice Spirit Festival only comes once a year!
**Player**: Yeah...
**Player**: I see...
**Player**: I'm probably worried over nothing.
*A few moments later...*
**Vundo**: Finally, on behalf of Never Isle...
**Vundo**: Thank you to all of our brave fellow Gyee.
**Vundo**: Thank you for everyone who believed in us and helped us common folk.
**Vundo**: Let us work together in the new year...
**Vundo**: And build a bright future for Never Isle!
*Everyone cheers*
**Vundo**: Now, enjoy the Arcana Academy's fireworks show!
**Kitty**: Wow! Fireworks!
**Player**: (smiles)
*The fireworks begin to launch*
*Instead of going into the sky, some fireworks fire straight into the decorations in the plaza setting everything ablaze*
**Panicked Spectators**: There's something wrong with the fireworks!
**Panicked Spectators**: Fire! Everyone run!
*Billy, Kitty and Player are surrounded by flames*
**Kitty**: Just how much did Big Pipe smoke today? Why did the fireworks explode on the ground?
**Player**: There's no way Principal Vundo's Arcana Academy would make a mistake on such an important occasion.
*More fireworks explode*
**Player**: Uh...
**Player**: I'm afraid...
**Billy**: It's not safe here, Captain! Let's get back to the airship!
**Player**: We can't go back!
**Player**: We don't know how far the fire has spread and where it's going...
**Player**: We need to find Principal Vundo and the others and make sure the island's leadership is still intact!
**Billy**: But the tree that exploded was right behind Principal Vundo and the others.
**Billy**: Don't tell me that the Principal is already...
**Kitty**: Don't say that! That's Principal Vundo you're talking about!
**Player**: Whatever the case, We need to find them!
*The three run further into the flames*
*Elsewhere on the Isle...*
*The Defense Force ushers some citizens to safety*
**Defense Force Warrior**: Calm down everyone. Get in line and evacuate in an orderly fashion!
*Suddenly, fire engulfs the Defense Force*
*Portals appear behind them and Shadow Demons appear*
**Panicked Spectators**: Shadows! It's the Shadows!
**Panicked Spectators**: Everyone run!
*Player, Billy and Kitty manage to reach the area Vundo was speaking*
*Both Markus and General Will look stunned while Vundo, Miles and Eddie are on the ground*
**Player**: !!
**Player**: Principal Vundo! Principal Vundo!
**Kitty**: This has gotta be some kind of trick.
**Player**: Miles, Eddie...
**Will**: Cough...cough...
**Markus**: Oh good, it's Player. At least you're all right...
**Player**: Well!!
**Player**: Commander, your injuries are serious!
**Player**: What happened?!
**Markus**: Listen...there's no time.
**Markus**: We've lost contact with the Oathblades, the Order of Equality, and the Defense Force on Never Isle.
**Markus**: You need to get out of here and find a way to restore Never Isle's Flux Communicators.
**Markus**: Find anyone who can fight.
**Markus**: Doesn't matter if they're Oathblades, Order of Equality, or Defense Force...
**Markus**: Get them together...
**Markus**: And take back Never Isle!
*Portals open near them and Shadow Demons appear*
**Kitty**: Damned Shadows! Give Principal Vundo back to me!
**Billy**: (angry)
**Will**: I'll stop them! You guys get out of here!
**Player**: General, you and the Commander's injuries are serious. You need to get treatment right away!
**Markus**: Ha, we won't let these little scratches stop us!
**Markus**: You go!
**Markus**: Never Isle...
**Will**: We must not falter!
**Player**: ...
**Player**: Billy, Kitty! Let's go!
*Kitty eyes the enemies, refusing to budge*
**Kitty**: We can't let them get away with this!
*Player grabs Kitty's shoulder*
**Player**: Let's go!
**Billy**: (angry)
*The three run away*
*A Shadow Spider Queen walks out of the portal*
**Markus**: I never thought the two of us would be fighting side-by-side again, not like this...
**Will**: Right...
**Will**: Let's see who can kill the most Shadows. How about it?
**Markus**: You know as well as I do that's a contest I won't lose.
**Will**: Just like before.
**Markus**: Just like before!
*Billy, Kitty and Player run through the Isle*
*Everywhere they go, they see buildings and the festival decorations on fire*
**Kitty**: Never Isle!!!
**Billy**: This can't be happening...
**Billy**: This a nightmare!
**Player**: ...
**Player**: It's fine if it's not real. It's fine if it's a nightmare. But there's no time...
**Player**: Don't forget about the task the Commander and the General gave us!
**Billy**: Right!
**???**: Don't go...
**???**: The fun is just getting started!
**Player**: !!
*Martin greets Player*
**Player**: So this is all your doing, Martin!
**Player**: (Whisper) We aren't a match for Martin...
**Player**: (Whisper) We need to find an opportunity to escape.
**Billy**: (Whisper) Okay!
**Martin**: You're right, this is a nightmare.
**Martin**: But allow me...
**Martin**: To show you the truth!
**Player**: Oh yeah?
**Player**: Now's our chance! Run!
*They turn to run but see their escape route is blocked by monsters*
**Kitty**: !!
**Player**: Damn! The road out has been...
**Martin**: Enjoy...
**Martin**: This symphony of fear and despair.
**Martin**: Yeah...
**Martin**: This is a nightmare.
**Martin**: That's why...
**Martin**: I'm going to show you the truth.
**Martin**: The truth that is called 'death'!
*Player blacks out*
*...*
**???**: Cap...
**???**: Capt...
**Billy**: Captain! Captain!
**Billy**: It's time to get up!
**Player**: Uh...
**Billy**: It's almost nighttime! We need to go join the Ice Spirit Festival opening!
**Player**: The Ice Spirit Festival...
**Player**: Hm... my head...
**Billy**: Are you okay, Captain?
**Player**: I think I had a strange dream.
**Billy**: Was it a bad dream?
**Player**: I dreamt that...
**Player**: Uh... I don't remember...
**Player**: I'm fine. Wait a sec for me to get dressed.
*Scene - Airship bridge*
*A few moments later...*
**Billy**: Hurry up, Captain.
**Player**: Hold on, I'm almost ready.
**Kitty**: Sigh. I knew Billy likes to sleep in, but you, Player?
**Player**: ...
**Kitty**: You don't look so good, Player.
**Player**: Who would've thought that the Oathblades would need my help in the middle of the night?
**Player**: I didn't get back to the airship till this afternoon.
**Player**: I wanted to take a nap, but I had a strange dream.
**Player**: Now I've got a bit of a headache.
**Billy**: Do you want to rest a while, Captain?
**Player**: It's not that bad. I'll be fine in a bit.
**Player**: Besides, yesterday I promised BeeNic and Alcander we'd join the opening ceremony together.
**Player**: I'll head out in a bit.
**Kitty**: Okay...
**Billy**: Don't push yourself too hard.
**Player**: Speaking of which, where is BeeNic?
**Billy**: Oh, BeeNic left early this morning.
**Billy**: Seemed like there was a lot of work waiting for him at the boxing club.
**Player**: Indeed. They're busiest during holidays.
**Player**: Then we'll just find him at the opening ceremony.
*Scene - Never Isle harbor*
*Many people are gathered at the harbor, enjoying the Ice Spirit Festival decorations*
**Billy**: Look how lively it is!
**???**: Player!
**Player**: Is someone calling me?
*BeeNic appears before Player in a flash of lightning*
**BeeNic**: Huff, puff...
**BeeNic**: Hey, Player!
**BeeNic**: I finally found you!
**Player**: BeeNic? You seem worried about something. What's wrong?
**BeeNic**: Listen to me, Player, Kitty, Billy!
**BeeNic**: You guys need to leave Never Isle! Right this second!
**Billy**: Leave Never Isle?
**Kitty**: Today is the first day of the Ice Spirit Festival. There's going to be lots of delicious things to eat and fun things to do.
**Kitty**: I don't want to leave!
**Player**: Did something happen, BeeNic?
**BeeNic**: There's no time to explain.
**BeeNic**: We've got to leave Never Isle immediately!
**Player**: This isn't because of Alcander is it, BeeNic?
**BeeNic**: What? Of course not!
**BeeNic**: This is much more important than Alcander!
**Player**: Huh? Even though we agreed yesterday...
**Player**: I don't see him anywhere.
**Player**: Don't be like this.
**BeeNic**: (surprised)
**Player**: Let's go, Billy and Kitty!
**Billy**: Yeah, the opening ceremony is almost done. Let's go to the market to check out the mechanical components!
**Kitty**: I wanna eat some delicious dried fish!
**Player**: All right, you can buy whatever you like!
**Kitty**: Wow! Player is the best!
**BeeNic**: H-hold on!
*The three leave BeeNic behind*
**BeeNic**: (angry)
**BeeNic**: I need to stop them.
*BeeNic uses his lightning speed to follow them*
*A few moments later in the Arcana Academy plaza...*
*Billy, Kitty and Player look through the throng of people in the plaza*
**Player**: It doesn't look like Alcander's here.
**Player**: I mean, just how bad is the grudge between these two?
**Billy**: Captain, I don't think Alcander would do that.
**Player**: Maybe...
**Player**: So you're saying something might have happened to him?
**Kitty**: Oh. Don't worry, Captain.
**Kitty**: It's Never Isle. What's the worst that could happen?
**Kitty**: Don't forget, the Ice Spirit Festival only comes once a year!
**Kitty**: So have some fun!
**Player**: Yeah...
**Player**: I see...
*BeeNic appears behind Player*
**BeeNic**: I finally found you!
**Player**: Ah? BeeNic, you're here.
**Player**: Hey, BeeNic. You're hurt pretty bad.
*BeeNic begins to use his time arcana*
**Player**: This...
**BeeNic**: There's no time to explain!
**Player**: Hold on...
*Both Player and BeeNic disappear in a flash*
**Billy**: Captain...Captain?
*Scene - Never Isle harbor*
**Player**: Uh...
**Player**: Is this the port?
**Player**: BeeNic!
**Player**: There is a time and a place for pranks.
**BeeNic**: This isn't a prank!
**BeeNic**: Never Isle is done for!
**Player**: What?
**BeeNic**: The Shadows have already infiltrated the island!
**Player**: How would that be possible? The Arcana Academy has cutting-edge Shadow Flux detectors.
*Explosions begin to go off*
**Player**: This can't be.
*Never Isle is on fire*
**BeeNic**: Now, Player...
**Player**: ...
*Player begins to run back towards the city*
**BeeNic**: What do you want to do?
**Player**: Billy, Kitty. Our friends on Never Isle...
**Player**: We need to save them!
**BeeNic**: There's no time.
**Player**: No way!
*BeeNic gets in front of Player*
**BeeNic**: Player...
**BeeNic**: Let's get out of here and hide somewhere far away, okay?
**Player**: You go ahead without me.
**Player**: I need to save them!
**BeeNic**: Hold on...
*Player runs into the city*
**BeeNic**: Wait for me a sec and I'll go with you!
*As BeeNic turns to follow, he is stopped by three Shadow Spider Queens*
**BeeNic**: Uh...
**BeeNic**: Damn!
**BeeNic**: What are you talking about, Player! I need to save you, too!
*BeeNic readies his time arcana*
*Continue to Trifle - Pursuit II*

**Pursuit II**

Total destruction is always accompanied by genuine resurrection.

**-Part 1**

*...*
*...*
*Another dream?*
*No. That was way too realistic.*
*Then...*
*It was real...*
*Scene - Airship bridge*
*Player runs up to Billy*
**Player**: ...
**Billy**: C-Captain?
**Billy**: What are you doing up already? There's still some time left before the Ice Spirit Festival opening ceremony.
**Player**: Ah, my head!
**Billy**: Captain! What's wrong?!
**Player**: I'm fine...
**Player**: BeeNic? Where is he?
**Billy**: This morning, he...
**Player**: Left already. Lot of work to do at the boxing gym.
**Player**: I remember now.
**Billy**: Uh huh...
**Billy**: Huh? How did you know, Captain?
**Player**: That's not important. Listen, Billy.
**Player**: After I get off the ship, take Kitty and take the airship into the sky and wait there for my word!
**Billy**: Why? Today is the first day of the Ice Spirit Festival. Can't we take a break?
**Player**: Something bad is going to happen!
**Player**: Just listen to me, Billy!
**Billy**: !!
**Billy**: Yes sir, Captain, sir!
**Player**: Yeah...
*Player runs towards the exit*
**Billy**: Captain!
**Billy**: Be careful!
*Scene - Never Isle harbor*
*Many people are gathered at the harbor, enjoying the Ice Spirit Festival decorations*
**Player**: I think BeeNic knows something.
**Player**: I need to find him!
*A few moments later...*
*BeeNic is on one of the side streets of Never Isle, tinkering with a strange device on the ground*
**BeeNic**: Huff, puff...
**BeeNic**: That's another bomb defused.
**BeeNic**: I need to hurry up. The Ice Spirit Festival opening ceremony is about to start.
**Player**: BeeNic!
*Player finds BeeNic*
**BeeNic**: What are you doing here, Player?
**Player**: What's happening?
**BeeNic**: What do you mean?
**BeeNic**: I'm helping promote the boxing gym for the Ice Spirit Festival!
**Player**: You know that's not what I'm talking about!
**BeeNic**: Then...what are you talking about?
**Player**: Never Isle has been destroyed two times.
**BeeNic**: You...remember?!
**Player**: What the hell is going on?!
**BeeNic**: No! Stay away, Player!
**BeeNic**: I can fix this. Trust me!
**Player**: I don't understand how your time reset Arcana works.
**Player**: But you've rest Never Isle's time two times already!
**Player**: Which goes to show that the situation has already exceeded your ability to control it!
**Player**: I can't stand by and do nothing!
**BeeNic**: (angry)
**BeeNic**: ...
**BeeNic**: All right. You're right.
**BeeNic**: I should've told you sooner.
**BeeNic**: This is all my fault.
**Player**: Your fault?
**BeeNic**: Two weeks ago, a man contacted me.
**BeeNic**: He said that he had a way to restore my memory.
**BeeNic**: So long as I did him a favor.
**Player**: Help you restore your memory? And you believed it?
**BeeNic**: He used a spell and showed me a blurry vision.
**BeeNic**: It looked like the goal that I've been pursuing.
**Player**: !!
**BeeNic**: Now it seems that he pulled a fast one on me!
**Player**: Who was the man?
**BeeNic**: He called himself my friend.
**BeeNic**: He looks young but has a head full of white hair and wears a black mage's robe.
**BeeNic**: He had a flower in his hand.
**Player**: Martin!
**Player**: He is the leader of the Shadows! Half of the horrible things that the Shadows have done in Luxium are all due to him!
**BeeNic**: (sad)
**Player**: What did you help him do? Does he have the power to destroy Never Isle?
**BeeNic**: He asked me to give him a Never Beacon.
**Player**: Oh...
**Player**: Never Isle is utterly compromised.
**BeeNic**: Player, I'm sorry...
**BeeNic**: I'm sorry! I had no idea!
**Player**: You really should've told me sooner!
*You punch BeeNic in the stomach lightly.*
**Player**: Now that you've been punished...
**Player**: You don't need to face this alone anymore!
**Player**: I'm with you!
**BeeNic**: (surprised)
**BeeNic**: Then let's hurry.
**Player**: Calm down, BeeNic.
**Player**: There's still over an hour before the Ice Spirit Festival opening ceremony begins.
**Player**: We need a plan.
**BeeNic**: Yeah!
**Player**: What do you know about the Shadows' plans, BeeNic?
**BeeNic**: (Shakes head...)
**BeeNic**: All I know is they've prepared bombs.
**BeeNic**: Just now, I was defusing one.
**BeeNic**: I think I've taken care of half the bombs in the southern part of Never Isle...
**Player**: You know how to defuse bombs, BeeNic?
**BeeNic**: I use my power to revert the bombs back into their individual components.
**Player**: I see... In that case, let's...
*Choice 1.1 - Defuse the bombs in the key areas of Never Isle!*
**BeeNic**: Defusing the bombs won't be a problem!
**BeeNic**: But if we're going to defuse them, why not defuse all of them?
**Player**: At your current rate, you've only defused less than half of the bombs in the southern part of Never Isle.
**Player**: There's no way we'll be able to defuse them all.
**BeeNic**: ...
**Player**: All we can do now is try to ensure Never Isle retains the ability to strike back.
**BeeNic**: But in that case, the island's residents...
**Player**: That's inevitable now. All we can do is minimize losses to the best of our abilities.
**BeeNic**: Oh...
**BeeNic**: Then how should we do it, Player?
**BeeNic**: I'm all ears!
**Player**: I remember that at the opening ceremony, after Principal Vundo finished his speech...
**Player**: That's when the Shadows took action.
**Player**: They destroyed Never Isle's command structure in an instant.
**Player**: And paralyzed the island's defenders.
**Player**: So we need to take care of the bombs at the Oathblades, Order of Equality, and Defense Force headquarters first.
**Player**: And the bomb on the celebration tree in the middle of the Arcana Academy plaza.
**BeeNic**: Understood!
*Choice 1.2 - Tell the Defense Force and Oathblades to get ready.*
**BeeNic**: I don't think that's a good idea!
**Player**: Why?
**BeeNic**: Don't forget, today is the Ice Spirit Festival.
**BeeNic**: Lots of people from other cities have come to the island.
**BeeNic**: If we tell the Oathblades and the Defense Force...
**BeeNic**: They're bound to order an evacuation!
**BeeNic**: Then the whole island will be chaos!
**BeeNic**: Martin and the Shadows have already infiltrated the island.
**BeeNic**: They'll use the chaos as a cover for their attack. The losses would be disastrous.
**Player**: That makes sense. We can't start a panic.
**BeeNic**: Or...we notify the Shadowhunters and have them help?
**Player**: No, the Shadowhunters' organization is too complicated. An operation like this would require high-level approval.
**Player**: Besides, with less than two hours left, even if Bernard and the others act on their own, they won't be able to make it in time.
**Player**: We...
**Player**: Have to do this alone.
*Choice 1.2.1 - Defuse the bombs in the key areas of Never Isle!*
*Go to Choice 1.1*
*Choice 1.2.2 - Tell the Defense Force and Oathblades to get ready.*
*Go to Choice 1.2*
*Choice 1.2.3 - Find Martin and send him back where he came from!*
*Go to Choice 1.3*
*Choice 1.3 - Find Martin and send him back where he came from!*
**BeeNic**: Send Martin back where he came from?
**Player**: You can reset time, right, BeeNic?
**Player**: That being the case, we just need to find Martin and send him back.
**Player**: Without Martin, the Shadows would have no leader, and there'd be nothing to fear!
**BeeNic**: Sending Martin back wouldn't be hard.
**BeeNic**: But where is Martin?
**BeeNic**: He has evaded the Arcana Academy's surveillance and the Defense Force's patrols.
**BeeNic**: I'm afraid we won't be able to find him.
**Player**: Hmm... You're right.
**Player**: Then let's try to think of another way.
*Choice 1.3.1 - Defuse the bombs in the key areas of Never Isle!*
*Go to Choice 1.1*
*Choice 1.3.2 - Tell the Defense Force and Oathblades to get ready.*
*Go to Choice 1.2*
*Choice 1.3.3 - Find Martin and send him back where he came from!*
*Go to Choice 1.3*
*Scene continues after choices*
*A few moments later, in front of the Defense Force.*
*The fireworks show starts in 1 hour.*
**Player**: This is strange. There's no sign of a bomb here.
**Player**: Have you found the bomb, BeeNic?
**BeeNic**: No...
**Player**: I can't find it either.
**BeeNic**: You'd think that a bomb of that size would be easy to spot with the naked eye.
**Player**: But if the bomb really were that obvious, the Defense Force would've found it by now.
**BeeNic**: Then maybe...the bomb is inside their headquarters?
**Player**: Hmm... Let's go ask!
*Player and BeeNic talk to Izumi right outside the Defense Force headquarters*
**Izumi**: Player? BeeNic? What are you guys doing here?
**Player**: Have you seen any strange people or strange cargo come into the Defense Force the past couple of days, Izumi?
**Izumi**: Strange people or strange cargo?
**Izumi**: No...
**Izumi**: Around the time of the Ice Spirit Festival, things are pretty strict here around the Defense Force.
**Izumi**: Everyone that comes in is examined and all cargo is unpacked and scanned.
**Izumi**: I've been so busy that I haven't even had time to eat any popsicles.
**Izumi**: There's nothing suspicious going on here, that's for sure!
**Player**: I see. Thank you.
*Player and BeeNic leave*
**Player**: So it would seem that the bomb cannot be inside the Defense Force.
**BeeNic**: Then where is the bomb?
**Player**: Yeah...
**Player**: !!
**Player**: Could it be?!
*Player rushes off*
**BeeNic**: Wait for me, Player!
*In the sewers beneath Never Isle.*
*The fireworks show starts in 48 minutes.*
*Player and BeeNic sneak into the sewers but see a large amount of workers*
**BeeNic**: So the bombs are hidden underground.
**Player**: Quiet!
**BeeNic**: ?
**Player**: Never Isle's sewers use fully automatic equipment.
**Player**: Generally speaking, only a small number of workers are required to maintain normal operations.
**BeeNic**: Then those workers we saw on our way here...
**Player**: They're...
**Player**: Shadows!
**BeeNic**: !!
**BeeNic**: So we...
**Player**: We cannot let anyone know we're here before we've defused the bomb.
*The two continue on*
*Farther in the sewer, two "workers" ready a large bomb*
**Worker A**: How's the bomb coming along?
**Worker B**: Everything's normal. All we have to do is wait for the master's orders!
**Worker A**: We just need to defend this place and make sure no one...
**Blood-curdling Cry**: Awoo!
**Worker A**: What?
*BeeNic appears next to one of the workers in a flash*
**BeeNic**: Too slow!
**Worker B**: When?
**Worker A**: Woo!
*BeeNic quickly takes care of the Shadow*
**Player**: We found it!
**Shadow A**: Haha! You guys have no chance of stopping Master Martin's plan!
**Shadow A**: This massive Shadow bomb is protected by Master Martin's magic!
**Shadow A**: If anyone tries to dismantle or defuse it, the bomb will explode!
**BeeNic**: Really?
**BeeNic**: Well I'm not going to defuse it!
**BeeNic**: I'm just going to turn it...
*BeeNic uses time arcana on the bomb*
**BeeNic**: Back into its old self!
**Shadow A**: This isn't...
**Shadow A**: Possible...
**Player**: He's done for.
**Player**: Now we just need to take care of the ones at the Oathblades, the Order of Equality, and the Arcana Academy plaza.
**BeeNic**: Yeah!
*A short time later.*
*The fireworks show starts in... 12 minutes.*
*BeeNic and Player find the location of the final bomb*
**BeeNic**: This is the last one!
**Player**: There isn't any time to panic.
**Player**: When we go in, no matter what happens, we rush directly to the bomb's position.
**Player**: Leave the Shadow minions to me!
**BeeNic**: Of course!
*The two rush to the bomb but encounter no resistance*
**Player**: !!
**BeeNic**: There's no one here?
**BeeNic**: Perfect!
**Player**: Careful! It might be a trap!
*As BeeNic gets near the bomb, multiple pillars of Shadow flux stops him from getting closer*
**BeeNic**: !!
**BeeNic**: Dammit...
**???**: Hahahaha!
*Martin walks in*
**Martin**: Interesting! Very interesting!
**Martin**: Since your time magic can easily defuse my bombs...
**Player**: Martin!
**Martin**: Why stop? Disarm the last giant bomb behind you and you win.
**BeeNic**: How dare you!
**Player**: (Whispers) BeeNic, I'll hold off Martin. You defuse the bomb!
**BeeNic**: (Whispers) This isn't good. There's an array by the bomb...
**BeeNic**: (Whispers) If I can't touch the bomb, there's nothing I can do.
**Player**: Uh...
**Martin**: I see...
**Martin**: If you can't touch the bomb, there's nothing you can do.
**BeeNic**: (angry)
**Martin**: Don't be so cruel.
**Martin**: Don't forget, we could always work together!
**BeeNic**: Screw working together!
**Martin**: Oh? Then it looks like the memory crystal that I worked so hard to make for you...
**Martin**: Was a waste.
*Martin takes out the memory crystal*
**BeeNic**: !!
**Player**: !!
**Player**: Don't fall for it, BeeNic!
**Martin**: Fall for it? BeeNic...
**Martin**: You know how strong I am.
**Martin**: Two weeks ago, I took you through the fog of the past.
**Martin**: Now, so long as we have this crystal...
**Martin**: You can dispel that fog and restore your past.
**BeeNic**: After all this, you think I'm going to trust you?
**Martin**: In all fairness, I never lied to you.
**Martin**: You give me what I want...
**Martin**: And I will give you what I promised you.
**BeeNic**: (angry)
**Player**: (Whispers) Plan B, BeeNic...
**Player**: (Whispers) Send Martin back where he came from!
**Martin**: Time arcana is the power of the gods...
**Martin**: It is possible to reset organic and inorganic matter to a previous state.
**Martin**: However, there is one tiny problem...
**Martin**: You can't reset your own time.
**BeeNic**: ...
**Martin**: You're a god playing with the past, but you don't even have a past of your own!
**Martin**: How sad...
**BeeNic**: I'm no god!
**BeeNic**: (Whispers) Player, wait for my signal, then send him home!
**Player**: Okay!
**BeeNic**: (Whispers) Get ready...
**BeeNic**: (Whispers) Now!
**Martin**: And I am the only one in this world...
*Player runs at Martin*
**Player**: Are you done talking yet? (Grabs Martin)
**Player**: BeeNic!
**Martin**: Who can help you make up for your regrets!
**BeeNic**: !!
**Player**: Beenic?
**BeeNic**: You...shut up!
*As BeeNic prepares to grab Martin, Martin disappears*
**BeeNic**: He's gone!
*BeeNic looks around*
**BeeNic**: Did he get away!
*Suddenly, Martin appears behind Player and BeeNic*
**Martin**: You're too slow!
**Player**: Uh oh!
*Martin shoots a devastating ray of Shadow Flux at BeeNic but Player intercepts it and gets hit instead*
**Player**: Uh...
**BeeNic**: Player!!
**Player**: Now's your chance...
**BeeNic**: Martin!
*BeeNic uses his lighting fast movements to get behind Martin*
**Martin**: !!
**BeeNic**: Ahhhhhhh!
*BeeNic uses his time arcana to transport Martin back in time*
**BeeNic**: ...
**Player**: Well...
**Player**: Well done!
*Player collapses*
**BeeNic**: Player!!
*The fireworks show starts in...*
*4 minutes*
**BeeNic**: No, no, no.
**BeeNic**: Player... Player, no...
**Player**: Quick... Evacuate the Arcana Academy plaza!
**Player**: BeeNic, don't listen to him.
**BeeNic**: Pull yourself together, Player!
**Player**: Quick... Evacuate them! Otherwise everything we've done will all be in vain!
**BeeNic**: No. I'm taking you to a medic!
*Player stops BeeNic*
**BeeNic**: !!
**Player**: Go!
**BeeNic**: No, no, no.
**Player**: This wound... There's no saving me.
**Player**: But the others...
**BeeNic**: No!
**BeeNic**: What will be the point if I can't save you?!
**Player**: Me?
**BeeNic**: Don't be stupid! How foolish can you be?
**BeeNic**: I...
**BeeNic**: I like you!
**Player**: (smiles)
**Player**: Ha-ha!
**Player**: I thought my feelings were unrequited... I'm happy to hear that...
**BeeNic**: !!
**Player**: My final wish...
**Player**: Evacuate...
**Player**: Evac...
*...*
**BeeNic**: Ah ah arh arh argh argh aaarrgghhh!!!
*The fireworks show starts in...*
*2 minutes and 30 seconds.*
*...*
*...*
*I...*
*My head...*
*I remember that I...*
*Why does my head still hurt?*
*Is this...*
*Scene - Airship bridge*
**Player**: !!
**Player**: This is...my airship!
**Player**: What am I doing here?
**Player**: Uh...
**Player**: It feels like my head's gonna explode!
**Player**: Who saved me and brought me back to the airship?
**Player**: What time is it now?
**Player**: How did the Ice Spirit Festival opening ceremony go?
**Player**: I should activate the communicator. Connecting...
**Player**: !!
*You notice the time in the corner of the screen.*
**Player**: The Ice Spirit Festival opening ceremony was 3 hours ago?
**Player**: BeeNic!
**BeeNic**: I'm here...
*BeeNic and Alcander enter the bridge*
**Player**: BeeNic!
**Player**: You fool! Did you push yourself too hard again?!
**BeeNic**: Don't worry! By now...
**BeeNic**: I completely reset Never Isle's time a few times, that's all. It has no effect on me!
**BeeNic**: I'm BeeNic, He Who Controls the Past!
*Player notices that BeeNic's Chrono Bracers are red instead of their usual blue*
**Player**: But why are your bracers red?
**BeeNic**: Don't concern yourself with such small details!
**Player**: So what you said before, was it true?
**BeeNic**: !
**BeeNic**: Of course!
**Alcander**: Sorry to interrupt, but we don't have time for this!
**BeeNic**: All right! There's a big problem we need to fix!
**Player**: Something big?
**Player**: Shadows!
**Alcander**: It seems like Player still remembers what happened. This shouldn't be too difficult.
**Player**: Alcander!
**Alcander**: Don't worry. I'm not here to argue with BeeNic.
**Alcander**: Thanks to BeeNic, I figured out part of the Shadows' plan!
**Player**: The Shadows' plan!
**Alcander**: Yeah! The Shadows' infiltration force broke into Never Isle during the day...
**Alcander**: At the time, they were probably preparing a large Shadow portal.
**Player**: Shadow infiltration force?
**Player**: But why didn't the Never Isle's detection system catch them?
**Alcander**: There's only one explanation...
**Alcander**: The Shadows have someone inside the Arcana Academy!
**Alcander**: This insider not only turned off the detection system...
**Alcander**: They also used the Nexus and the Never Isle Flux network to monitor everyone on the island.
**BeeNic**: It see. No wonder Martin appeared when we were just about to disable the last bomb!
**Player**: Which is to say, if we can get rid of this insider and restart the Flux detection system...
**Player**: We can find the Shadows lurking on the island!
**Alcander**: This will be a bit difficult. Intelligence shows that Martin's infiltration force are well disguised by their Shadow Flux...
**Alcander**: But...
**Alcander**: Martin can't contact his insider in the academy. He won't dare to prepare the dark portal.
**Player**: This way, the Shadows on Never Isle will be isolated and won't have any reinforcements!
**Alcander**: Correct!
**Alcander**: Without further ado, let's get moving!
**Player**: Wait!
**Player**: If I can remember the previous resets, won't Martin know we're going to sabotage his plans?
**BeeNic**: Unlikely. My time reset is flawless when it comes to the people in this world!
**BeeNic**: To people from other worlds, it may not be absolutely perfect.
**Player**: So I remember the resets and so does Alcander...
**BeeNic**: But Martin will not remember things through several resets!
**Player**: Great! This is a big advantage!
**Player**: Let's go!
*Player and Alcander exit the bridge*
*BeeNic starts to follow but needs to catch his breath*
**BeeNic**: Uh...
**BeeNic**: It's not time yet.
**BeeNic**: Hold on...
**BeeNic**: Phew.
*BeeNic follows*
*Scene - Inside the Arcana Academy's Arcana Nexus*
*The fireworks show starts in...*
*2 hours and 23 minutes.*
**Worried Arcanist**: What are you guys gonna do?
**Worried Arcanist**: Do you know who I am?
*Player, Alcander and BeeNic confront an arcanist*
**Player**: We know...
**Player**: You're the chief professor of Flux, or the person in charge of the Arcana Nexus...
**Worried Arcanist**: Since you know, why won't you let me through?
**Player**: Because you're part of the Shadow plot!
**Worried Arcanist**: !!
**Worried Arcanist**: Slander!
**Alcander**: The entire Arcana Academy can freely come and go from the Nexus. Check Never Isle's Flux network...
**Alcander**: Except for the principal, the only person who has control of the Shadow detection system is you!
**Player**: You were there when BeeNic came to Never Isle!
**Player**: You must have heard the news about BeeNic and the time arcana!
**Worried Arcanist**: You...
**Worried Arcanist**: Do you have any proof?
**BeeNic**: No...
**Worried Arcanist**: You...I want to see Principal Vundo!
**Alcander**: Principal Vundo is busy with the opening ceremony!
**Worried Arcanist**: You!
**BeeNic**: What do you know about the Shadows' operation?
**BeeNic**: Make it fast!
**Worried Arcanist**: What Shadows? You're slanderers!
**Worried Arcanist**: You're defaming the Arcana Academy! You're going to suffer the consequences!
**BeeNic**: Before that...
**BeeNic**: I'll make you regret being born in this world!
*BeeNic grabs the arcanist*
**Worried Arcanist**: Ahh! My...ah!!!
*A few moments later...*
*The Shadow spy gives up information about the other spies on Never Isle...*
*As well as how they're connected.*
**Paralyzed Arcanist**: Woo... Woo...
**BeeNic**: Don't worry. He won't be able to stand up for a week at least!
**Player**: I never knew you were so talented at interrogation, BeeNic...
**BeeNic**: Haha, I've got all the tools I could ever need.
**BeeNic**: With just a little adjustment, even the ultimate happiness can become...
**BeeNic**: A torturous nightmare!
**Alcander**: That's amazing!
**Player**: Terrifying...
**Player**: Well, let's leave this guy and the other spies to the Academy and the Defense Force!
**Alcander**: Yeah. Let's first restore the Academy's Shadow detection system!
**Alcander**: And then disarm the bomb set in the sewers!
**Player**: All right!
*Scene - At the site of the booby-trapped bomb in the sewers*
*The fireworks show starts in...*
*1 hour and 47 minutes.*
**BeeNic**: Last time, Martin set up a Shadow array around the bomb.
**Alcander**: Judging by the time, Martin probably doesn't know that the spies have been caught yet.
**BeeNic**: Which is to say, there shouldn't be an array.
**Player**: I don't sense any Shadow Flux!
**BeeNic**: Looks like there's only one way to find out!
*BeeNic walks up to the bomb but isn't stopped*
**Player**: There's no array!
**BeeNic**: Looks like your plan worked, Alcander.
**Alcander**: Quickly! There isn't a lot of time.
**Player**: We have over two hours! We've got it this time!
**Alcander**: ...
**BeeNic**: ...
**BeeNic**: Yeah!
*BeeNic uses his time arcana to revert the bomb back into its base components*
*The effort causes BeeNic to stumble to his knees*
**BeeNic**: Uh...
**Player**: BeeNic!
**Player**: Damn, Martin left another trap!
**BeeNic**: No!
**BeeNic**: I slipped, that's all.
**BeeNic**: Let's go.
*BeeNic gets up and uses his lightning-quick movements to get to the next area*
**Player**: Wait for us!
*Player and Alcander follow*
*Scene - In another area of the sewers*
*The fireworks show starts in...*
*41 minutes*
**Player**: The Arcana Academy plaza, the Oathblades, the Order of Equality, the Defense Force...
**Player**: BeeNic's broken down the four major Shadow Flux bombs into parts.
**Player**: Martin won't get the last laugh this time!
**Alcander**: He lost his primary means of attacking Never Isle.
**Alcander**: Nevertheless, it's Martin, so we can't afford to take him lightly.
**???**: You damned...
**BeeNic**: This voice!
**BeeNic**: Martin!
*Martin surprises the three with a large contingent of Shadow Demons*
**Player**: We took out the spies you had infiltrate Never Isle.
**Player**: We've reactivated the Shadow detection system.
**Player**: And we've disabled your Shadow bombs!
**Player**: Surrender!
**Martin**: I don't know how you guys managed to discover my perfect plan...
**Martin**: However!
**Martin**: Don't think for a second that you've defeated my master plan.
**Martin**: We'll send you to hell!
**Martin**: Loyal Shadow servants!
**Martin**: Now we'll see who's going to surrender!
**Player**: There's so many of them!
**BeeNic**: Leave them to me, Player!
**Alcander**: Don't forget about me!
*Alcander transforms into Lion King form and uses his flames to take down the Shadow Demons in one firey hit*
**Alcander**: Roar!!!
**Martin**: Go to hell!
*BeeNic, Alcander and Player battle Martin and wounds him*
**Martin**: Uh...
**Player**: He's hurt!
**BeeNic**: Die, you fiend!
**Martin**: (smiles)
*Martin takes out the memory crystal*
**Martin**: Make one move and I'll destroy it!
**Alcander**: What's that?
**Martin**: BeeNic, this crystal is capable of uncovering your past and restoring your memories!
**Martin**: This is the only crystal like it in all of Luxium...
*BeeNic zaps to the crystal*
**Martin**: !!
**BeeNic**: Compared with the future...
**BeeNic**: The past...
**BeeNic**: Is worth nothing to me!
*BeeNic destroys the memory crystal*
**Martin**: What?!
*Suddenly, everything goes dark*
**Player**: !!
**Player**: What happened?
**Player**: What is this place? Where are BeeNic and Alcander?
**???**: He's everything to me...
**Player**: This voice...is it BeeNic?
**Player**: Where is he?
**BeeNic**: My world was empty and lonely.
**BeeNic**: But then I met him.
**BeeNic**: In him, I felt the first ray of warmth from my memories.
**BeeNic**: My world was frozen in ice until he came along and melted it all away.
**BeeNic**: I became brave, because I knew he was right there by my side.
**BeeNic**: Then one day, he left.
**BeeNic**: And he never returned.
**BeeNic**: I must find him!
**BeeNic**: Because I promised him that we would never be apart!
**BeeNic**: I know he's waiting for me!
**Player**: Beenic's memory!
**BeeNic**: How long has it been since I left home?
**BeeNic**: Decades? Centuries?
**BeeNic**: I don't remember.
**BeeNic**: But I will continue...
**BeeNic**: I will continue looking for him!
*Scene - Never Isle*
*The fireworks show starts in...*
*3 minutes*
*BeeNic and Alcander escape the sewers with an unconscious Player*
**BeeNic**: Player! Player!
**BeeNic**: Don't leave me again!
*BeeNic turns to Alcader*
**BeeNic**: You...
**BeeNic**: You answered me!
**Alcander**: Listen! I don't know what's going on.
**Alcander**: You should save your energy.
**BeeNic**: I don't care!
**Player**: Uh...
**BeeNic**: Player!
**Player**: ...
*Player gets up*
**Player**: What is this place?
**Alcander**: Outside Never Isle.
**Alcander**: You passed out all of a sudden just now. Are you all right?
**Player**: I'm fine...
**Player**: What about Martin?
**Alcander**: Martin ran away. All of his minions were wiped out.
**Alcander**: We won!
**Player**: That's great!
**Player**: BeeNic, we won!
**BeeNic**: Yeah...
**Player**: Oh! BeeNic!
**Player**: BeeNic, just now, I saw your...
*BeeNic collapses*
**Player**: BeeNic!
**Player**: What's wrong?
**BeeNic**: I'm fine, I'm just a little tired...
**Alcander**: ...
**Player**: (Inspects BeeNic's situation)
**Player**: !!
**Player**: BeeNic, your body!
**Alcander**: Using arcana to reset the time in an entire area takes a lot of energy. BeeNic...
**Alcander**: He did it three times.
**BeeNic**: I'm sorry, Player. I lied to you.
**Player**: I don't want you to apologize, I want you to keep on living!
**BeeNic**: I'm sorry. I'm afraid I can't do that.
**BeeNic**: Martin and I made a deal.
**BeeNic**: This is an end befitting a sinner.
**Player**: Shut up! You're not a sinner, you're a hero!
**Player**: You're the hero that saved Never Isle!
**BeeNic**: I'm sorry...
**Player**: BeeNic, I saw your past.
**Player**: Pull yourself together! Let's go find what you've been looking for!
**BeeNic**: That won't be necessary. Because...
**BeeNic**: I...
**BeeNic**: Found...
**BeeNic**: ...
**Player**: BeeNic...
**Player**: BeeNic!
*The fireworks show starts in...*
*1 second*
*The fireworks go off without incident*
**Child**: Daddy! Look at the pretty fireworks!
**Resident**: Wow! This year's fireworks are better than last year's!
**Resident**: I bet next year's will be even better!
**Resident**: One day, our Gyee fireworks...
**Resident**: Will light up the sky over all of Luxium!
**Player**: ...
**Alcander**: BeeNic didn't die, Player...
**Player**: !!
**Alcander**: But...
