**Tyrfing:** He said you had nowhere to call home and no one to lend you a hand.

**Tyrfing:** Well, he was wrong--because at the very least, you have me.

**Tyrfing:** And I know there will be others like me who will come to your aid.

**Tyrfing:** I must tell the priest that.

**Toto:** Huh?!

**Tyrfing:** I must tell him that I will prove him wrong by protecting you.

**Tyrfing:** That is the one thing he truly wanted! I'm sure of it!

**Toto:** T-Tyrfing!

**Tyrfing:** Father... You can rest in peace now.

**Toto:** Nooooooooooo!!!

### After Stage Clear

**Toto:** Father?! Father...!!!

**Nabelle:** Ack... Gah!!! T-Toto... The necklace...

**Dulyn:** Don't worry. The philosopher's stone will never leave his neck.

**Nabelle:** Gah! Y-You...you knew...what it was?

**Dulyn:** Yeah, I know all about the sacred stone imbued with Mana. It's been handed down by the heirs of Fresnel's family for generations.

**Dulyn:** Even a tiny shard of it is said to be able to repel most Eldritch.

**Dulyn:** Well, that explains why the Eldritch stayed away when you were at the village. It was the stone.

**Dulyn:** Don't worry, Father. I know Archduke Fresnel. We won't fail to deliver Toto safely to him.

**Nabelle:** R-Really?! Heh... To think the boy would be left in the care of a Killer Princess...

**Nabelle:** It seems Toto has met the same fate as I did. In his darkest hour, his savior appeared. The one person in the world who wanted to protect him.

**Nabelle:** Y-You better not let him suffer a single scratch!

**Toto:** Father...

* Question 1
* Question 2
*Did you halt the routine patrols to hide your past?*
**Tyrfing:** Surely you could have continued to live in your new town after changing your name.

*Why did you return to the village that abandoned you?*
**Tyrfing:** Surely you could have continued to live in your new town after changing your name.

**Tyrfing:** But why would you return to Ezzell Village, a place you must have despised, and then attempt to deceive Ragnarok as you did?

**Dulyn:** Did you want revenge against the village that abandoned you and your family?

**Nabelle:** I-It is...it is as you say.

**Nabelle:** But the village I returned to... It was being ravaged by Eldritch and on the verge of collapse.

**Nabelle:** By that time, the people responsible for banishing me and my family were already dead.

**Dulyn:** Really?

**Dulyn:** Then why? Why would you put your life at risk by remaining there?

**Nabelle:** \*Cough\* \*sputter\* You're forgetting someone... The one who sent my life in a downward spiral... The foremost target of my vengeance...

**Dulyn:** ...The angel? I've been wondering... Who or what was that angel, anyway?

**Nabelle:** Ngah! F-First, there is something I'd like to say...to Toto.

**Toto:** ...What is it, Father?

**Nabelle:** L-Listen to me, Toto! You are not the Devil's Child!

**Nabelle:** You are no different from any other child, except for the misfortune you suffered!

**Nabelle:** The world may look upon you with undue prejudice, but there is no need to hide your head in the sand!

**Nabelle:** You, too, have a future, just like any other child. Never forget that!

**Toto:** F-Father!

**Nabelle:** Ngah, argh! Your misfortune will continue. For you, Toto, have seen an angel...

**Dulyn:** Ah, there you go again! Who or what is this angel you keep talking about?

**Nabelle:** I-I mean exactly what I said: an angel. Th-They really do...exist... \*Cough\*

**Dulyn:** Huh?!

**Nabelle:** ...P-Please, look after...Toto...

**Toto:** Father...? Father! Father!!!

**Toto:** FATHER!!! No... No...!

**Toto:** NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

**Dulyn:** I've been blind to the needs of those who live beyond the fringes of Ragnarok's protection.

**Dulyn:** There must be countless people out there who are suffering, without anyone to help.

**Tyrfing:** Dulyn...

**Dulyn:** I know the higher-ups wouldn't agree, but, Nabelle, you were a fine priest.
