In this FAQ I have typed up the dialogue and story related text that appears in

3. Prologue ******************************************************************
******************************************************************************
Without warning,
the island suddenly
appeared in the sky.

Four foul and wicked
beings claimed it for
themselves.

They possessed the
frightening powers of
Chaos, Destruction,
Terror, and Death.

The people were horrified.
They called the evil ones
"Sinistrals".

The reign of Terror
continued.

The world massed its
warriors to battle
their dark foes.

But the Sinistrals
were all powerful.

In desperation, the people
called on their bravest
fighters: Artea, Guy,
Maxim, and Selan.

And so began
the final battle...

******************************************************************************
4. Island Fortress ***********************************************************
******************************************************************************
?????: It's so dark.

?????: I feel the energy.

?????: A very dark energy.
      Beware! It's powerful.

?????: Selan. Light Magic.

Selan: As you wish.

Maxim: Is this the Fortress
      of Doom?

Selan: So cold! It freezes
      straight to the heart.

Daos:  Welcome Maxim.

Maxim: Daos? It's you, isn't it?
      Show yourself!

Daos:  Approach. My chamber is
      above. I await you.

When you reach a clear bridge at the top of the dungeon.

Daos:  You may cross.

Selan: Maxim. It could be a trap.

Maxim: He said cross let's go.

Selan: But....

Maxim: Daos is testing us. He
      senses our feelings.
      Don't show and fear!

Guy:   You're right. That's
      what he's doing.

Artea: My power is strong.
      The hopes of my people
      energize me.

Maxim: Come on, Selan. We're
      the world's last and
      only chance!

Selan: I know.

Maxim: There's still hope as
      long as Dual Blade keeps
      it's light.

Selan: Dual Blade boosts our
      powers. It makes us even
      stronger in the center of
      this darkness.

Maxim: We will destroy the
      Sinistrals and restore
      peace to the world.
      This we promise.

Selan: We promise. Together!

After all four cross the bridge.

Daos:  Ha, ha, ha!
      I sense your hope.
      Indeed, it is powerful.

Selan: Sinistrals! Your reign of
      tyranny is over! Do you
      hear me? We will finish
      you once and for all!

Daos:  The woman's energy flows
      strangely. Is this human
      love? Such a thing is
      unknown to us.
      No Matter. It is easily
      smashed.

After you reach Daos and the three other Sinistrals.

Daos:  Maxim! At last we meet.
      I sense your strength.
      A worthy opponent.

Maxim: Daos! With Dual Blade I
      Return the pain you gave
      to my people!

Gades: Hold, Maxim! You shall
      fight me first!

After defeating Gades.

Amon:  You will go no further!

After defeating Amon.

Erim:  Maxim is it? Come!
      Come and join your fallen
      friends!

After defeating Erim.

Daos:  Magnificent! A true fighter.
      'Tis truly a pity I must
      destroy you.

After defeating Daos.

Maxim: Daos. This is the end.

Daos:  Indeed. This shall be
      the end......OF EVERYTHING!

Artea: The Sinistrals are
      gathering their energy
      into one flow! They're
      merging!

Guy:   They want to destroy us!

Artea: Not only us. If that flow
      erupts, the world will
      cease to exist!

Guy:   What?

Maxim: I won't let that happen!
      I can't do it alone.
      Artea. Guy. Selan. Join me.
      Merge your flows with mine!

Selan: Maxim! It's too dangerous!

Maxim: Quickly. We don't have
      time. Do it......NOW!

Daos:  Ha, ha, ha! Fools! Our
      dark powers are vast.
      Your feeble efforts are
      no match against us!

Maxim: Give it all you've got!

Artea: Maxim! Selan can't take
      much more of this!

Selan: I'm......I'm fine.
      Everyone! Concentrate!

Daos:  AARGH! You filthy pests!

Maxim: Ready!

Maxim: We did it.
      Guy? Are you alright?

Guy:   They'd have to do more than
      that to stop me!

Maxim: Artea!

Artea: I'm fine.

Maxim: Selan!

Selan: We....finally did it, Maxim.

Maxim: Selan? What's the matter?

Selan: We finally restored peace
      to the world.

Maxim: Yes. We did.
      Let's go home.

Selan: No. I'm not going home.

Maxim: Selan! What are you
      saying?

Selan: The eruption went through
      me. I can't....even....speak....

Maxim: No! Selan! Selan!

Selan: I....wish I could....stand
      on our....land with you
      once again.
      And hold....my......child......

The bridge collapses separating Maxim and Selan from Guy and Artea.

Guy:   The fortress is breaking
      up! Artea. The warp magic!

Artea: Maxim and Selan are too
      far. I can't take them
      with us!

Guy:   Can't we do anything?

Maxim: Artea! Guy! Don't worry
      about us. Save yourselves!

Artea: Maxim?

Maxim: The Sinistrals are defeated.
      You must tell the people.

Artea: But....!

Maxim: I can't leave he here
      alone! Please understand.

Artea: ........

Guy:   Let's go, Artea!

Artea: Guy! You can't mean...

Guy:   Maxim said we should go.
      He's right. It's the only
      way.

Artea: ........

Guy:   Artea!

Artea: Maxim. The world will know.
      I promise you. Goodbye,
      my friend......
      Warp!

Maxim: Selan. Peace will come.
      I wish we had been born
      in such a world.
      Selan. I love you.
      I'll always love you.

Thus, the battle ended.
The island plummeted into
the depths of the sea.
The Sinistrals vanished
and never returned.
In time, it came to be
remembered as
"The Battle of Doom Island".

       Lufia
& The Fortress of Doom

******************************************************************************
5. Alekia 1 ******************************************************************
******************************************************************************
90 years had passed since
the great conflict.
Once again, peace settled
over the kingdoms.
Life was good,
and troubles were few.
"The Battle of Doom Island"
soon faded from memory.
The people lived and worked
in harmony once more.
That's when the trouble
started....

Roman: Another lazy day.

Hero:  Hello, Roman.

Roman: Oh, Hero. Come for a
      visit, have you?

Hero:  Yes.

Roman: My, you're a mess today!
      Went adventuring again,
      did you?

Hero:  I went to the caves today!

Roman: I wouldn't push my luck
      if I were you. But,
      then again, I haven't seen
      any monsters lately.

Hero:  That's ok. I'm not afraid
      of any monster!

Roman: Hello, young lady.
      Are you all alone?

?????: ........

Roman: You're new around here.
      What's your name?

?????: ........

Roman: Are you lost?
      Is everything alright?

Hero:  My name's Hero.
      What's yours?

Lufia: Lufia. My name is
      Lufia.

Hero:  That's a nice name. Hey,
      Lufia! Where are your
      parents?

Lufia: ........

Hero:  Where do you live?

Lufia: Let's play.

Hero:  Huh?

Lufia: Let's go outside and play!

Hero:  Ok.
      What do you want to do?

Lufia: Tag! I'll run and Hero,
      you come after me.

Hero:  Alright. I'll count to
      three. Ready? One, two....

Lufia: Whee! Ha, ha, ha!

Hero:  Three! Ready or not!
      Here I come!
Roman: Seems like a nice girl.
      I wonder who she is?

Nine years later....
Hero:  Time for afternoon
      training.

Knight 1: Nobody's coming today,
         anyway. Just another
         day off.

Knight 2: Hey! I have an idea! Jack
         said he was going to chase
         Yuria around the castle
         again. Let's go watch!

Knight 1: This I have to see!

Hero:  I don't believe this.

Knight 3: Lighten up Hero! They're
         just having some fun.
         And that's what peace is
         all about, right?

Hero:  And what would you do if
      the monsters suddenly
      attacked?

Knight 3: Monsters? get real! There
         haven't been any monsters
        around here for 100 years!

Hero:  Lufia....

Lufia: Why, Hero. Aren't you
      new guys supposed to be
      training today?
Hero:  How'd you know that?
      Then, you also know why
      I'm here.

Lufia: Skipping out again, I
      imagine. The commander
      won't like it if you
      don't practice!

Hero:  I'm not skipping out!
      No one came, so drill
      was cancelled.

Lufia: Oh, I see.

Hero:  How about you, Lufia?
      What are you doing?

Lufia: I found some Priphea
      buds over here. Take
      a look.
      Here.

Hero:  Which ones?
      Where are they?

Lufia: They're all over the place.
      Look closer.
      Priphea almost never
      bloom. But they're so
      pretty when they do.
Hero:  Always the flower lover.

Lufia: I guess you're right. I
      remember making wreaths
      for you, Hero, when
      we were children.

Hero:  Mmm. You made me
      dizzy with so many
      flowers.

Lufia: Yes. Those were happy
      times, weren't they?

Hero:  Tell me, Lufia. What
      do you think about
      life the way it is today?

Lufia: It's good, I think. We have
      peace and....well, you're
      here.

Hero:  I wonder how long this
      peace will last.
      Life used to be so hard
      100 years ago.

Lufia: Are you thinking about
      the past again?

Hero:  What would we do if the
      Sinistrals returned?
      Maxim is dead. Who would
      defend us?
Lufia: You're a knight of Alekia,
      aren't you? Doesn't Maxim's
      blood run in your veins?
      Won't that be enough?

Hero:  ........

Lufia: We should be getting home
      soon. I'll make you some
      cinnamon tea. I haven't
      made it for a while.

Hero:  Cinnamon tea.
      One of your recipes that
      actually tastes good.

Lufia: Oh, you! I'll have you
      know that it's very popular
      with our guests.

Hero:  Hmm. That's odd.
      Aren't you using......

Lufia: What?

Hero:  You know. Herbs that
      change the taste of things?
      The stuff people say is
      made by the Lyden Wizard?

Lufia: Well, I never! If that's
      what you think, then I'll
      never let you drink it.

Hero:  Come on, Lufia.
      I'm just kidding, ok?
      Don't be angry. Come on.
      Let's have that cinnamon
      tea. And how about some
      of your cinnamon pie?

Lufia: ........

Hero:  Your cinnamon pie is
      the best in the whole
      world.

Lufia: You have some nerve!
      Well, if you're going to be
      that nice, I'll have to make
      a cinnamon pie, won't I?

The two run to the inn.
Lufia: Roman? I'm going
      to use the oven now.

Roman: Well, what's got into you?
      Going to bake something,
      are we?

Lufia: Cinnamon pie. Lots of
      cinnamon pie. You're
      going to love it!

Roman: Lufia is in a good mood.
      What happened?

Hero:  Nothing. I just said that
      her cinnamon pie was the
      best in the world.
      That's all.

Roman: I see. I see. Well, she
      hardly ever bakes for me
      when I ask her, you know.

Hero:  What? Lufia owes you so
      much. You'd think the least
      she could do for you is
      bake a pie!

Roman: Oh, I don't do that much.
      I'm just an innkeeper.

Hero:  I remember nine years ago.

Roman: Has it been nine years
      already?

Some guy 1: Have you heard? People
           say that monsters attacked
           the Kingdom of Sheran.

Some guy 2: I don't know about that. If
           it were true, why don't the
           knights look into it? That's
           what they're for, right?

Some guy 1: The Kingdom of Sheran won't
           let the Alekian knights
           enter.
           Besides, they're all too
           lazy. No one will go and
           see.

Some guy 2: Isn't that the truth!

Hero runs off.

Lufia: Hero. Go ahead and have
      some tea. The pie will be
      ready soon.
      Hero? Where are you?

Some guy 1: You mean the young man?
           He just left.

Lufia: Really?
      Whatever is he thinking?
      That Hero! I'll never
      forgive him!

Hero:  Monsters is Sheran?
      It can't be true!

When you locate and talk to the commander.

Commander: What?! Monsters attacked
          the Kingdom of sheran?
          I've heard nothing about
          this!

Hero:  It may be a rumor, but we
      should be cautious.
      Commander, form a detail
      and check it out.

Commander: It isn't that easy.
          We can't just send out
          knights off on a rumor.
          I won't send anyone until
          a scout goes to Sheran.
          When you locate and talk to Yuria.

Yuria: Oh, it's you, Hero. Don't
      tell Jack I'm here. He's
      been chasing me around the
      castle again!

Hero:  Jack is looking for you.

Yuria: What? He's inside?
      Now what will I do?

When you locate and talk to the Princess Estea.

Princess Estea: The Kingdom of Sheran?
               I know. The rumor
               worried me as well.

Hero:  Princess Estea. Did you
      Know about it?

Princess Estea: I have no authority to
               order the knights. But
               I am worried about
               Sheran. I....

Hero:  Put your mind at ease.
      I was leaving for
      Sheran anyway.

Princess Estea: Really? Good. Our country
               still has a few good men
               left. Please use this.
               This is all the help
               I can give you.
               (Hero gets 100 gold
               pieces.)
               I leave Sheran in your
               hands.

Things said by people in Alekia when Hero talks to them:

This is a merchant's shop.

This is a weapons shop.

This is an armorer's shop.

What can I do for you today.

Yes. It's really peaceful.

Lufia was crying.
Whoever made her cry must
be cruel and unfeeling.

Why aren't you with
Lufia? You two are always
together. What happened?
Did you have an argument?

The latest dress designs
are at the biggest shop in
Lorbenia. Why don't you go
there with Lufia?

Roman's cinnamon tea is
the best. I wish I could
make it, but Roman only
taught Lufia.

Hey. You shouldn't let
such a pretty lady run
away like that!

The Sheran rumor is true?
Well, I don't know.
I've never actually seen
monsters in Sheran.

Roman:
Lufia got mad and left.
That's understandable
when you bake for someone
and he skips out.
Why don't you take a break?

You're an Alekian knight?
You seem strange.

Chatam is north of Alekia.
Be sure to visit their inn!

The way to Sheran lies
through the northern caves,
But beware! Monsters roam
the tunnels.

My husband hates rain!
That's why he uses the
underground path.

When you want to use magic,
select the staff icon with
the cross key and press the
"A" button.
During battle, use the
cross key to choose a spell.
Press the "A"button to
cast it.

Press the "A" button when
in front of the dresser.
Maybe you'll find something.
When you walk around,
touch objects in towns and
villages to find hidden
items. For example you could
look around outside
this room.

Monsters in the Kingdom
of Sheran? The commander
didn't say a word about
that!

Maybe you should ask
the commander first.
He's in the castle.

What? The commander?
Same as always. He's
sleeping in the backroom
on the far left side.

You can't change your
weapon once you're in
battle, so be careful.

Hey, Hero? Have you
seen Yuria? I'm going to
ask her out today!

This castle needs more
help, Hero.
Do you know anyone?

The Princess has been
acting strange lately.
I wonder what's the
matter?

This is the guest room,
but we haven't used it
much lately.

This is the Princess' room.
Not just anyone may enter.
Please leave.

Where did Yuria go?
There's a ton of work
to do!

I'm worried. Our Princess
hasn't eaten much lately.
Is it my cooking?

This is the throne room.
Please behave in front
of His Majesty.

What? The rumor about
monsters in Sheran?
I can't send anyone
until you've checked it.
No matter how many times
you ask, I can't send the
knights until you've checked
to see if the rumor's true.

6. Chatam 1 ******************************************************************
******************************************************************************
Thing's said by people in Chatam when Hero talks to them:

Welcome. What can I do
for you?

I know about the Sheran
story. But, I'm not going
to see if it's true!

I haven't seen Danil
recently. His sister, Lilah,
is a maid at the castle.
I'm very worried about them.

I want to go to the store
in Lorbenia. It might have
things we can't get here.

Monsters in Sheran?
Everyone knows about it,
but nobody wants to find
out.

My friend Kilah works in
Sheran. I'm worried about
her.

******************************************************************************
7. Sheran 1 ******************************************************************
******************************************************************************
When you find and talk to the only person not knocked down in Sheran.

Some guy: Oh no.

Hero:  Are you alright?
      Can you hear me?
      What happened?

Some guy: Something evil attacked us.
         That's why the monsters
         went crazy.

Hero:  Let me take care of you.
      You'll be fine.

Some guy: Never mind about me.
         You must go and help
         the others.

Hero:  Sir....?
      Sir!!

When you talk to the guy in the merchant shop.

Some guy: The monsters attacked us.
         Their leader wore a black
         cape.......

Hero:  Be brave!

Some guy: ............


Thing's said by people in Sheran when Hero talks to them:

Go quickly, and return
to Alekia.

Be careful. It's
still here.

You must do something
before Alekia is destroyed.
Go back and inform the
king right now!

It's dangerous here.
Go home! Quickly!

8. Alekia 2 ******************************************************************
******************************************************************************
When you talk to Roman at the inn.

Roman: What? Monsters in Sheran,
      you say? Come to think of
      it, we haven't had any
      guests from Sheran lately.

Hero:  By the way, Roman.
      Has Lufia returned?

Roman: She's back, but she shut
      herself in upstairs.
      Still angry, I suppose.
      You should say something.
      Why don't you take a break?

When you talk to Lufia on the second floor of the inn.

Lufia: How could you do that to me?
      I'll never forgive you!
      Never!

Hero:  Please listen. I'm sorry I
      left like that. But, there's
      trouble in Sheran right now.
      I had to go there.

Lufia: You could at least have
      stayed for some pie.

Hero:  You can always make
      cinnamon pie!

Lufia: So, Sheran is more
      important than my pie.
      Is that what you're saying?

Hero:  That's ridiculous!
      You can't possibly
      compare the two.

Lufia: Why, you....! I understand.
      Go away! Leave me alone!

After walking out of the in.

Roman: Hey, Hero.
      You know, Hero.
      Lufia isn't really angry
      because you didn't eat
      the pie.

Hero:  I know.

Roman: It's because you went off
      into dangerous territory
      alone.

Hero:  I know. I know.
      But do you think she
      would listen to me?

Roman: Sometimes you're so funny.
      There's no need for you to
      go running off to such
      dangerous places.

Hero:  Hmmm. I don't even
      understand it myself.

Roman: Must be that Maxim
      blood in you.

Hero:  Would you take Lufia
      some hot mil later on?
      And please tell her the
      Priphea are in bloom.

Roman: Priphea?

Hero:  Flowers. She was waiting
      for them to bloom.

Roman: Don't push yourself so much.
      Come back here if you get
      hurt. We're always open.

After exiting Alekia.

Lufia: Hero! Wait!

Hero:  What's wrong, Lufia?

Lufia: You're going somewhere
      dangerous again, aren't
      you?

Hero:  Yes.

Lufia: Even if I tell you not to
      go, I know you'll leave
      anyway.

Hero:  You know everything,
      don't you?
      You're right. I'm going.
      I have to go.

Lufia: I won't stop you.
      Take me with you.

Hero:  I can't.

Lufia: I thought you'd say that,
      but I still want to go
      with you.

Hero:  No!

Lufia: Please....I

Hero:  No way!

Lufia: Hero is so stubborn!
      Fine.
      Even if he says no,
      I'm still going with him.
      I won't take no for an
      answer. I'm still mad
      at you about the pie!

Hero:  Still angry about that?
      I don't care.
      You want to come? Fine.
      Do as you like.
      Don't blame me if something
      happens.

Lufia: That's alright with me.
      I don't need your help.
      I can take care of
      myself just fine.

Hero:  A brave thing to say. Ha!
      Suit yourself!

Lufia: You don't like me, do you?

Hero:  ............

Lufia: I'm selfish and I have
      a short temper.
      No wonder you're tired
      of me.

Hero:  If that's all it take,
      then I was tired of you
      long ago.

Lufia: ....Hero.

Hero:  Lufia, dangers lie ahead.
      I can protect myself, but I
      don't know if I can protect
      you. Please understand.

Lufia: Well, I don't.

Hero:  Why won't you listen?

Lufia: Whatever the danger ahead,
      I'm not afraid.

Hero:  What are you saying, Lufia?
      I....

Lufia: You'll learn how, I'm sure.
      No matter what happens,
      you'll protect me, won't
      you?

Hero:  Well....yes.

Lufia: Please. Let me go with you.
      I promise I'll do my best!

Hero:  ........

Lufia: ........?

Hero:  You might die.

Lufia: I won't die.

Hero:  How can you say that?

Lufia: Just because. If you're
      with me, I just won't die.

Hero:  You always want it
      your own way, don't you?

Lufia: You figured that out
      just now?

Hero:  I knew it all along.
      Ha, ha, ha, ha!

Lufia: Why are you laughing
      like that, Hero?

Hero:  Because I thought it would
      end up like this!

Lufia: Me, too.

Hero:  Lufia....

Lufia: Promise me Hero, that
      you'll never leave me.

Hero:  I promise.

Lufia: That's all I wanted to hear.

Hero:  Let's go, Lufia.
      We must get to Sheran.

Lufia: Alright.

When you go to the castle and speak to the commander.

Commander: What? Monsters actually
          attacked Sheran? I'll send
         a detail immediately!

Hero:  Good. When will they
      leave?

Commander: First, we'll hold a meeting.
          They'll leave when everyone
          agrees to go.

Hero:  So, when will they go?

Commander: Let's see. The chairman's
          in Lorbenia. I think he
          returns next week.

Hero:  You mean, they won't
      leave until next week?

Commander: Well, the chairman returns
          next week. And then, we'll
          hold a meeting to choose
          the members of the detail.

Hero:  I've heard enough!
      Excuse me!

When you talk to Danil on the floor in the cave on your way to Sheran.

Hero:  Are you alright?
      Pull yourself together!

Danil: I'm fine. Are you a knight?
      My sister Lilah is in
      Sheran Castle.

Hero:  Sister?

Danil: I came here because I
      was worried. Monsters
      attacked me. Please take
      me to Sheran.

Hero:  Listen. You can trust me.
      Go back to the village.
      There's danger ahead.

Danil: I understand. Please
      help Lilah.

Hero:  I'm sure she's fine.

Danil: Thanks. Take this key.
      Lilah used it at the
      castle.
      I'll be fine. Please
      hurry to Sheran.

When you find the King of Sheran.

Lilah: Who's there?

Hero:  Hero, knight from the
      Kingdom of Alekia. I've
      come to help.

Lilah: Knight of Alekia?
      Great! Are you here
      to rescue the King?

Sheran's King:
      What? Only two?
      What are knights of
      Alekia doing in out
      country?

Lilah: Sire! These are dangerous
      times! You should be
      grateful.

Sheran's King:
      I know.

Lufia: Hero. It's amazing that
      someone would scold a king!

Hero:  Probably very important.
      Excuse me. Is Lilah here?

Lilah: I'm Lilah.

Hero:  You're Lilah? Your brother
      asked us to find you.

Lilah: My brother, Danil?

Hero:  He's been worried about
      you. Let's get out of here.
      I'll take you to Alekia.

Lilah: I understand. Thank you.

After exiting the castle.

Gades: Who dares to enter
      my domain?

Lilah: It's him! He's the one
      who destroyed everything!

Gades: Ah! an Alekian knight!
      Yet, you seem different
      from the others...

Hero:  ...Lufia!
      Take everyone and leave.
      You're in great danger!

Lufia: But! But, Hero!

Hero:  Go! Go and get the knights.
      Quickly! Something evil is
      at work here!

Lufia and the others flee leaving Hero behind.

Hero:  Why? Why did you
      destroy so many?

Gades: I need no reason!
      My mission is destruction.
      No more, no less.

Hero:  Destruction?
      Do you think you can
      get away with such an
      evil deed?
Gades: Puny knight!
      I AM EVIL!

Hero:  E....Evil?

Gades: I am Gades! Siniatral of
      Destruction!!

After Gades defeats Hero. Lufia returns.

Gades: You. Woman.
      You!

Lufia: What? Stay away from me!
      I won't let you take Hero!

Gades: ............

Lufia: Go away! Leave us alone!!

Gades: So be it!
      Farewell, woman.
      Until the next time!

Lufia: Are you alright, Hero?

Hero:  Don't worry about me.
      I'm fine, but what about
      the king and the others?

Lufia: Everyone arrived in Alekia.
      They're safe inside the
      castle walls.

Hero:  What about the knights?
      Where are they?

Lufia: They couldn't leave right
      away. So, I returned alone.
      I was so worried about you,
      Hero.

Hero:  Thanks! I wouldn't have
      made it without you!

Lufia: Who was that anyway?

Hero:  I couldn't believe my
      ears, but he called
      himself Gades.

Lufia: Gades?
      The Sinistral Gades?
      I thought he died at
      Doom Island!

Hero:  That's right.
      He was supposed to
      have been defeated.

Lufia: That means....

Hero:  We don't know that.
      If it was Gades, what
      about the other three:
      Amon, Daos, and Erim?

Lufia: I don't want to know!
      Let's return to Alekia.

Hero:  You're right. Let's return
      Lilah to Chatam village.

Roman: Hero

Hero:  Roman

Roman: You're alright, Hero. I

      was worried.
Hero:  I'm fine.

Roman: Well, let's head home.
      You challenged Gades,
      didn't you, Hero?

Hero:  Yes.

Roman: What are you going to
      do now?

Hero:  First, I'm going to escort
      Lilah from the castle to
      the village of Chatam.
      And then, I....

Roman: Going off even further?

Hero:  Uh....yes.

Lufia: Hero. Would you
      mind leaving us for
      a moment?

Hero:  I'll wait outside.

Lufia: Roman....I....

Roman: It's alright to go
      with him.

Lufia: What?
Roman: Don't leave Hero. It's
      no accident that you
      met each other.

Lufia: But, I can't leave you
      all alone.

Roman: Don't worry about me.
      I'm sure I'll see you
      again.

Lufia: Roman....

Roman: Go now.

Lufia: I'll be back.

Lufia walks outside to Hero.

Lufia: He said, "Go."

Hero:  I see.

After going to the Castle and speaking to Lilah.

Lilah: I don't know how to thank
      you Hero.

Hero:  It's nothing. I should
      take you to Chatam Village.
      You're brother is waiting.

Lilah: Thank you.

After talking to the Princess in the castle.

Princess: Hero. You've returned
         safely. I heard from the
         King. But, who was it that
         you fought against?

Hero:  You won't believe me,
      but it was Gades.

Princess: Gades? one of the
         Sinistrals from Doom
         Island? How is this
         possible?

Hero:  I must find out if the
      Sinistrals really have
      returned to our world
      again!

Princess: I too, must know. Forgive
         my request, for I fully
         realize the dangers you
         are about to face.

Hero:  I'm prepared for danger.
      And if it is Gades, my
      mission is to destroy him.

Princess: Missions....I see. Yes. You
         are descended from Maxim.
         Good. But be careful.

When you talk to some kid in Chatam.

Kid:   You're lady friend looks
      tough.

Hero:  Do you think so? I'd say
      she's rather gentle.

Kid:   Maybe, But, she still
      looks strong.

Hero:  You shouldn't try to
      fool children.

Lufia: What do you mean
      by that?

Hero:  Oh, nothing. Nothing at all.

When you cross the bridge in Chatam.

Lilah: Danil!

Danil: Lilah!

Lilah: Danil!

Danil: Lilah, is it really you?
      I'm so glad you're alright.

Lilah: Danil, oh Danil.

Lufia: Everything is alright

Hero:  What's the matter,
      Lufia?

Lufia: I....I'm just so happy.

Danil: I don't know how to thank
      you for bringing Lilah
      back safely. I....

Hero:  Please. Don't worry
      about it.

Lufia: Just be sure to take
      good care of your sister.

Danil: I give you my word.

Lilah: Hero. It's just a rumor,
      but there's someone in
      Treck who knows about the
      Sinistrals.
      Treck is southwest of
      Sheran. It's far, so be
      careful.

******************************************************************************
12. Treck 1 ******************************************************************

After speaking with a woman in the Lodge.

Woman: The old fellow at the port
      said he was a knight. He
      used to be with the Guy
      Legion.

Hero:  The guy who survived the
      Battle of Doom Island?
      That one?

Woman: I....I really don't
      know.

When you talk to some kid at the docks.

Kid:   My father works at the
      largest shop in Lorbenia.
      What do you think of
      that?

Lufia: Really? That's great!
      Does he bring you lots of
      presents when he comes
      home?

Kid:   Yes! But, he hasn't
      returned yet. I wonder
      what's happened?

When you talk to Former Guy Legion Knight at the docks.

Former Guy Legion Knight:
      I sense unusual energy
      from you. Did you battle
      a strong enemy lately?

Hero:  How did you know that?

Former Guy Legion Knight:
      Because I used to be a
      knight with the Guy
      Legion.

Hero:  Guy? you mean the Guy of
      Doom Island?

Former Guy Legion Knight:
      Yes. It was a long time
      ago.

Hero:  Did you know anything
      about Gades?

Former Guy Legion Knight:
      So, you know about the
      Sinistral Gades. Pretty
      rare these days for one
      so young!

Hero:  Know him? I fought him!

Former Guy Legion Knight:
      Wha....what's that?
      You fought Gades?
      Is this true?

Hero:  Yes.

Former Guy Legion Knight:
      If you're telling the truth,
      that explains the imbalance.
      But....Gades was destroyed.

Hero:  Please tell me what you
      know about Gades. I
      must know.

Former Guy Legion Knight:
      Why such interest in the
      Sinistrals? Don't you
      fear for your life?

Hero:  I am Maxim's descendant.

Former Guy Legion Knight:
      Maxim? You? Hmm.
      Follow me.

They walk to the house west of the entrance.

Former Guy Legion Knight:
      Ainea. You there?

Ainea: What is it, uncle? Who's
      that behind you?

Former Guy Legion Knight:
      This is Hero. Show them
      to the East Cave. I want
      him to meet the One.

Ainea: Are you sure? I mean, the
      One said he wouldn't meet
      anybody.

Former Guy Legion Knight:
      It's alright. He's a
      descendant of Maxim.
      They must meet.

Ainea: Maxim? Hero, please come
      with me to the East Cave.

Hero:  East Cave?

Ainea: An important person lives
      just beyond the East Cave.
      He often helps me. Please
      come.

Things said by people in Treck when Hero talks to them:

Monsters recently captured
most of the Lorbenia-bound
ships. Shipping has
stopped. It's a pain.

You wish to see me.

Welcome. I've some great
pear cider on hand!
What will it be?

An old man who watches the
sea all day is unusual.
That's what I think!

We've had few customers
lately. The work is easier,
but.... Oh, we'll take your
order downstairs.

We have fine cider in the
basement, but so does
Arubus.

Yo! How's business? As
long as I have my
precious ship Maberia,
business is grand!

New dresses have arrived
at the shop in Lorbenia.
Why don't you get something
for your lady friend?

It's 10 gold pieces a night.
Do you want to stay over?

Take a look at what
we have here!

Please come in. Take
your time and look
around.

Our weapons are the best
on this island. Going on
a voyage? We have
everything you need!

No ships are ready to
set sail for Lorbenia.
Many were attacked by
monsters.

Ships have stopped
coming recently.
Why?

Great ship, isn't she?
That's my Maberia. When
you trade with Lorbenia,
she'll never go wrong!

Our cider is too bitter
for you young folks. But,
I'll sell it to you if
you still want it.

Guy:   Oh, Ainea. Was I
      expecting you today?

Ainea: No. I'm here for a
      special reason.

Guy:   Who's that behind you?

Ainea: This is Hero, a descendant
      of Maxim.

Hero:  Pleasure to meet you.

Guy:   Descendant of Maxim?
      Then would you be so
      kind as to focus your
      thoughts?

Hero:  Thoughts?

Guy:   Just think of any one
      thing. That will be enough.

Hero:  Sure.
      ....................

Guy:   Strong energy. Just like
      Maxim's. The very same
      power runs through you,
      too.

Hero:  You know about Maxim?
      Who are you?

Guy:   I am Guy. I fought
      with Maxim against
      the Sinistrals.

Hero:  You're Guy? But....!

Guy:   No need to be surprised. I'm
      over 100 but still kicking!
      Now. What would you want
      with such an old man?

Hero:  Guy. I battled Gades.

Guy:   Gades? But......
      That's not possible!
      He lost at Doom Island!

Hero:  But it was Gades.

Guy:   Impossible! Absolutely
      out of the question!

Lufia: Guy. Hero isn't one
      to lie.

Guy:   Hmmm? Who is that?

Hero:  This is Lufia, a
      childhood friend. We're
      traveling together.

Lufia: How do you do?

Guy:   Lufia, eh? Hmmm.
Lufia: ......?

Hero:  If you know anything of
      Gades and the Sinistrals,
      please tell me.

Guy:   It hurts to recall. But, if
      Gades has really returned,
      there's no time to rest.
      Not even for me!

Ainea: You can't, Guy. You'll
      hurt yourself!

Guy:   But I can't just sit still.
      I....I can......ugh!!

Ainea: Guy! What's wrong?

Guy:   It's my time. It's....

Ainea: Don't say that. You'll
      be fine.

Guy:   Hero. Seek Artea, the elf.
      They live a long time. I'm
      sure he'll help you.

Hero:  Is Artea alive, too?
      Where can I find him?

Guy:   There's one in Grenoble
      who knows about Artea.
      Remember....find....Artea...
Hero:  I understand. I'll look
      for him.

Guy:   Don't give in to the
      Sinistrals. You mustn't!
      You have Maxim's blood....
      You....

Ainea: Guy! Guy! No!

After Guy dies and the they bury him.

Ainea: A great warrior, Guy. May
      he rest in peace. We'll
      never forget you.
      What will you do now?

Hero:  We'll go to Grenoble.
      Someone there knows
      about Artea.

Ainea: Well, be careful. I'll look
      forward to the day when
      peace comes to this land.
Hero:  Guy. I will defeat the
      Sinistrals. I promise.
      Rest. Rest peacefully.
      Let's go, Lufia.

Lufia: Ok.

Hero walks away.

Ainea: Lufia.
      It may be that the only
      one who can defeat the
      Sinistrals is one who
      has Maxim's blood.

Lufia: Yes. I know.

Ainea: Stay close to Hero. Your
      support is more important
      than any sword or armor!

Lufia: I won't let Hero get
      hurt, no matter what.
      I....

Ainea: Lufia. You be careful, too.

When you speak to the Former Guy Legion Knight.

Former Guy Legion Knight:
      Yes. Artea would be able
      to help, wouldn't he?

Hero:  There's someone in the town
      of Grenoble who knows about
      Artea. That's where we'll
      go.

Former Guy Legion Knight:
      Grenoble is southwest of
      Lorbenia. We used to sail
      there, but not anymore.

Hero:  Anyway, we won't get
      anything done unless
      we go to Lorbenia.

Former Guy Legion Knight:
      Some soldiers from Lorbenia
      are here. They're asking
      about the Four Sinistrals.
      How about meeting them?

When you go to the dock and speak to Aguro.

Aguro: I am Aguro, commander of
      the Lorbenian Army. I came
      when I heard that Gades
      invaded Sheran.
      Can you tell me anything?

Hero:  You want to know about
      Gades?

Aguro: And you as well, I see.
      Do you know anything?

Hero:  You may not believe me,
      but I fought him.

Aguro: What! Is this true?
      Who are you? What's your
      name?

Hero:  I am Hero, knight of
      Alekia.

Aguro: Hero. Tell me more of
      your battle. Let's dine
      together at my camp.
      You will be my guest.

A ship with four Demon Lords on it docks.

Aguro: Wha....what!

Hero:  Monsters!
      Monsters everywhere!

Aguro: How interesting! We'll
      talk later, Hero. Come
      on! Let's get them all!

After defeating the four Demon Lords.

Aguro: Never before have I seen
      such swordsmanship!

Lufia: Of course. Hero is a
      descendant of Maxim.

Aguro: Descendant of Maxim? So,
      you were destined to meet
      Gades. Most people flee
      when they hear that name.

Hero:  If Gades and the Sinistrals
      have returned, my quest is
      to destroy them.

Aguro: I see. By the way, Hero,
      what are your plans now?

Hero:  I'm off to Grenoble. It
      seems someone there knows
      about Artea.

Aguro: Grenoble is southwest of
      Lorbenia, I believe. I've
      been there. You can use my
      ship to cross the sea.

Hero:  Really? I'd appreciate
      that.

Aguro: Hey! No problem. Trust me.

Some guy in the Lorbenian Army:
      Commander. The sh....ship
      was sunk by...,by
      monsters.

Aguro: What!!

Some guy in the Lorbenian Army:
      This town has no more
      ships.

Aguro: Hmm. So, Hero. First,
      let's find a ship.

Lufia: Will it be alright?
      Can we trust him?

Lufia: Sailors are wonderful.

Girl:  I love listening to his

When you talk to the Toymaker.

Toymaker: Hi. We sell stuffed animals.

Lufia: So many cute animals.
      Did you make them
      yourself?

Toymaker: Yes. I made all the
         animals here.

Lufia: Isn't that something?
      They're all so cute.
      Especially that cat. I
      love that.

Toymaker: Oh, I'm sorry. This one
         isn't for sale. It's for
         my daughter. But I'll
         discount the other ones.

When you enter the Dress Shop.

Lufia: Wow!!
      Look at all these dresses!
      Oh, Hero! What do you
      think about this one?

Hero:  Well, it's fine, I guess.
      It's pretty, too. It must
      be pricey!

Lufia: Oh, I love this one!
      Don't you think it's
      perfect, Hero?

Hero:  Give me a break! How much?
      5,800 gold pieces?! That's
      crazy! You can buy plated
      mail for that!

Lufia: I know. I know.
      It's expensive.

After speaking to a woman who works in the Dress Shop.

Woman: We're having a sale today!
      Buy now before we're
      sold out!

Lufia: Sale! Hero, I'm going
      to check it out.

Some kid steals Lufia's gold and runs off.

Thief: Piece of cake!
      Let's see. What do I have
      Today?

Hero catches the thief.

Hero:  Hey!

Thief: What? Who are you?

Hero:  Give me the gold you
      took from Lufia.

Thief: Wha...what are you talking
      about? Are you calling me
      a thief?

Hero:  Don't lie to me.
      I saw you!

Thief: ............

Hero:  Don't try to run away.

Thief: Darn it! I haven't done
      anything!

Lufia comes.

Lufia: Hero? Here you are.
      What? Who is this child?
      What's going on?

Hero:  Lufia. Do you have
      the gold?

Lufia: What? Money? No, I don't!
      Did he...?

Hero:  Mmm. What should we do
      with him? Let's see. The
      army!

Lufia: Wait, Hero. He's just a
      child. We have the money.
      Let him go.

Hero:  But....!

Lufia: It's alright.
      Boy. Don't you ever do
      this again. Can you
      promise me that?

Thief: Yes! I promise.

Lufia: Good. You can go now.

Hero:  You're too kind, Lufia.

Lufia: It's just that I know
      he has some reason
      to steal.

When you speak to the innkeeper.

Inkeeper: Hello. Were you having
         problems with Lou at
         the big shop?

Lufia: You know about him,
      do you?

Inkeeper: Everyone around here knows
         about him. His name's Lou
         Shaia. He's the son of
         Professor Raile Shaia.

Hero:  Professor Raile Shaia?
      Who's that?

Inkeeper: He's studying something
         weird. I heard he's
         traveling around the world
         to find whatever it is.

Lufia: Then, why doesn't he
      take Lou with him?

Inkeeper: There are so many
         dangerous places out
         there. He decided to
         leave his son at home.

Hero:  But why does Lou steal?

Inkeeper: I hear that Raile Shaia's
         research doesn't pay very
         well. I guess he doesn't
         pay Lou well, either.

Lufia: Some father!

Inkeeper: For that reason, people
         in this town sort of
         ignore what Lou steals.

Lufia: So that was it. Now I
      understand.

Inkeeper: Oops. I took too long.
         So. 20 gold pieces. Are
         you staying?

As you exit the inn.

Hero:  Aguro.

Aguro: Oh, it's you, Hero.
      I was coming to visit
      you.
      Hero. You're going ahead
      with your journey to
      destroy the Sinistrals.
      Am I correct?

Hero:  Yes. The Sinistrals are
      evil. If they have returned,
      then I must defeat them.

Aguro: I see. Then, I'm coming
      with you.

Hero:  What? Will you really
      join us, Aguro?

Aguro: What do you mean? Am
      I not worthy enough for
      you?

Hero:  Don't be ridiculous! Of
      course you are. But, if
      you come with me, won't
      the army suffer?

Aguro: I asked the army to battle
      the Sinistrals. No interest
      at all. I can't stay there
      any more.

Hero:  All armies are the same.

Aguro: Well, Hero? Where are
      we off to first?

Hero:  Grenoble. Someone is there
      who knows about Artea.

Aguro: Grenoble is in the
      southwest. Let's get going!



Things said by people in Lorbenia when Hero talks to them:

The streets turn empty
when there's a sale.
Everyone goes shopping!

My ship departed.
She's heading for port.
I don't know when she'll
return!

This is the headquarters
of the Lorbenian Army.
Sorry. Non-authorized
personnel cannot enter.

What can I do for you today?

An items shop just opened
near here. That will kill
my business. I'll have to
find something new.

Hello. Sharpness makes
the weapon! You'll find
none sharper than ours.

Light weight and ease
of movement make our
armor the best around.

We have things the shop
next door doesn't have.
Take your time and look
around.

Power Gourd temporarily
boosts your power. Great
against strong enemies, but
it weakens as you fight.

New dresses are on the
third floor. If you're
taking the lady behind
you, please be prepared!

My brother wants
everything he sees!

This is cool, Sis!
Please buy it for me!

Hello. We sell accessories.
How about a present for
your lady friend?

Gee, everything looks so
wonderful! I can't make
up my mind!

I want the biggest teddy
bear in the stuffed
animal shop.

My girlfriend asked me to
come with her. I've been
here all morning! I'm
exhausted!

Hey! I found this dress!

We'd better choose fast
before everything is sold
out!

When you talk to some guy near the entrance.

Hero:  Excuse me. I heard someone
      here knows about Artea. Do
      you know who that might
      be?

Some guy: Well, I don't know. But
         the old man in the Spring
         Basement might know.

When you talk to a Knight in the treasure hunters shop.

Knight: I found some great treasure
       today. How about you?

Hero:  What kind of shop is
      this anyway?

Knight: What? You didn't know and
       still came? This shop
       takes treasures found in
       the Old Cave.

When you talk to a Knight in the treasure hunters shop.

Old man: You're new here. I've been
        living like this for 40
        years. I'm a pro. Keep your
        hands off, understand?

Hero:  Excuse me. Do you know
      someone called Artea?

Old man: Artea? Oh, you mean the
        elf who fought at the
        Battle of Doom Island!
        I've heard of him....

Hero:  You know him? Pease
      tell me more.

Old man: You don't understand how
        the game is played. When
        you ask for something,
        you have to....you know....

Hero:  I have a little money, if
      that's what you mean. But....

Old man: Not money. What I want is
        the "Fairy Kiss" treasure
        at the 2nd level of the Old
        Cave.
        Only a woman can reach
        the "Fairy Kiss". There's
        no way I can get it.


Things said by people in Grenoble when Hero talks to them:

The monsters in the Old
Cave are powerful. You
must use strong weapons
against them.

It's 40 gold pieces a night.
Do you want to stay over?

When walking in the toxic
marsh, sometimes you hit
things you can't see. These
may be hidden treasures.

Inside the Old Cave is a
fabulous treasure that
only women can find.
You could be rich.

My husband hasn't returned
from the Old Cave yet.
I don't know what I'll do if
something's happened to him!

What can I do for you today?

Be strong if you choose
to enter the Old Cave.

Take a Smoke Ball when you
enter the Old Cave. You can
avoid monsters with it.

I've been to the Old Cave
many times but I've never
reached the bottom. How
far down can it go?

I'm going to be a treasure
hunter when I get older.

Sorry, but you can't
pass here.

Do you know the power of
the ring? The Flash Ring
increases the power of
Flash magic.
There are many kinds of
rings. You must use them
as each situation demands.
You can't find many rings
in the shops. They're
usually inside treasure
chests.

Have you heard the rumor,
too? I'll let you pass for
50 gold pieces. Will you
pay?

The Old Cave holds many
treasure. Of course, much
has been stolen. Most of
what's left is worthless.

You don't look anything
like a treasure hunter!
That's ok. Try to find
something valuable!

Here you get a task suited
to your level. You get a
new task for every 5 levels
of experience you reach.

Hero:  So, what do you say?

Old man: Ok. Ok. Artea, right? See
        the man in the tower
        northwest of town.

Hero:  Northwest Tower. Got it!

Old man: He's a strange one. Won't

Apprentice: A letter? Show it to me.
           Oh! From my friend in
           Grenoble. He helped me
           a lot when I was young.

Hero:  Uh....

Apprentice: Ah, yes. You want to
           ask about Artea.

Hero:  Do you know him?

Apprentice: I do. But, I can't tell
           you anything.

Hero:  Why not?

Apprentice: You may be someone
           important. But, I can't
           tell you where Artea
           lives.

Hero:  Well, then. How can I
      make you tell me?

Apprentice: We shall battle each other.
           One-on-one. For real. Are
           you truly brave enough to
           accept my challenge?

After defeating Apprentice.

Apprentice: You are a good person.
           I can tell by your energy.

Hero:  You'll tell me?

Apprentice: Artea is in Elfrea now.

Hero:  Elfrea?

Apprentice: The village of elves.
           Humans may not enter. You
           will not find him without
           an elf helper.

Hero:  So, where's Elfrea?

Apprentice: Go south and cross the
           desert. You'll find a small
           island surrounded by three
           islands. That's Elfrea.
           Listen. Elfrea is far away.
           You'll have to travel
           through three towns to get
           there.

Hero:  I understand. Thanks for

Mark:  You'll be fine. Our town
      has a ruby, the "Hope Ruby".
      It makes your wishes come
      true. I'll bring it here.

Reyna: I know of it. But I thought
      it was a treasure of the
      Kingdom of Medan.

Mark:  I'm sure I can borrow it
      if I ask. Next time I come,
      I'll bring the "Hope Ruby".

Reyna: Thank you, Mark.

Mark:  I'll go back to Medan.

When you talk to Reyna.

Reyan: I hope Mark doesn't
      do something stupid
      because of me.

Lufia: Is Mark Reyna's boyfriend?

Reyna: Yes. He lives in the
      eastern town of Medan.
      He came to see me even
      after I became ill.

Lufia: He's so sweet.

Reyna: I know. But I wonder

Mark:  What? Oh! You're the

      Reyna's house.

Lufia: What's the matter? You

Mark:  I asked the King to lend

When you walk up to the hope ruby.

Lufia: Hero. I'm going to go

Hero:  What did you wish for?

Lufia: Hee, hee! I won't tell.

When you find the Princess and a Knight on the bottom floor.

Knight: Princess. You shouldn't be

Princess: You've been collecting all
         the coins thrown into the
         fountain again, haven't
         you?

Knight: Well? That's my job.

Princess: It's sad. We call it the
         "Hope Ruby", but I know
         it's just made of glass.

Knight: But the coins thrown into
       the springs are what our
       country needs.

Princess: I know. That's why it's sad.
         We can't defend the ruby
         forever. Our country must

Knight: Princess....

Princess: I wish the ruby was

When you exit the castle.

Mark runs by.

Lufia: Wasn't that Mark?

Knights run after him.

Lufia: Of course. You stay here,

Mark:  No! I'm going. I promised

Lufia: I knew it! You're the one

Mark:  I know it was wrong.

Lufia: But Mark, that ruby

Reyan: Mark. Is that....the....

Mark:  What?! It broke during our

Reyna: It's very valuable,

Mark:  Tell the truth and

Lufia: Belgen?

Mark:  Belgan is a village

Princess: I have something very
         important to tell everyone
         today.
         The "Hope Ruby" that was
         stolen the other day is
         made of glass.

Some guy 1: Great! So the real one is
           hidden somewhere, right?

Princess: The glass ruby was
         the only one in Medan.

Some guy 1: What?

Some guy 2: Are you saying there
           was no "Hope Ruby"
           in the first place?

Some guy 1: That can't be true!

Some guy 2: My wish came true
           once, you know.

Some guy 3: But, why would anyone
           make a fake ruby?

Princess: Medan was rich in gemstone
         mines. But they ran out
         years ago.
         When the gemstones ran
         out, the people of Medan
         survived through tourism.
         And that's why we had
         the "Hope Ruby".
         But this is fraud! It's
         wrong to attract tourists
         to see a fake ruby.
         I really want to make
         Medan rich country.
         To do that, everyone
         must pitch in.

Some guy 1: ........

Some guy 2: ........

Princess: We're sorry for fooling
         everyone. Please find a
         way to forgive my father
         and I for this.

Some guy 1: Princess! Princess!
           Please don't bow to us!

Some guy 3: We, too, completely
           depended on the ruby.
           We failed you.

Some guy 2: We were wrong, too.

Princess: Oh! I....

Some guy 1: It's alright. This country
           will survive without
           the ruby.

Some guy 3: If we really try, we
           can make a country
           equal to Lorbenia!
           I think you're right.
           Let's do the best we can!

Lufia: Medan will survive,

Some girl: Monsters started attacking

Lufia: Her age doesn't matter now.

Hero:  Well, we can't leave

Lufia: Let's get these two in

      That's how we can help

Jerin: I'll be in your way,

Hero:  I didn't say that. We

Aguro: Calm down, Lufia.
      She's just a child.

Lufia: You can't tell with half
      elves. And besides, I am
      calm!

Aguro: Alright...alright.

Lufia: Hero! Are you really
      going to let her join
      our party?

Hero:  There's no one else to
      guide us. We have to
      count on Jerin.

Aguro: I agree.

Lufia: I don't!

Hero:  Why not?

Lufia: Why? Just....well,
      just because. That's
      why!

Hero:  That's not an answer.
      Come on. Let's go.

Jerin: What's wrong with Lufia?

Hero:  She's just jealous. It's
      always the same thing.
      Nothing to worry about.

Lufia: Hero!!
      I'll go first, Hero!

Jerin: Is she always like this?

Hero:  Ha, ha, ha.

Old Woman: Did you come to find
          Elfrea?

Hero:  Yes.

Old Woman: I have some information.
          Will you buy me come cider?
          Do that, and I'll tell you.

Hero:  Yes.

Old Woman: Ah, you're a bright one!
          Well, I'll have that
          cider now. Ah, how sweet!

Hero:  So, what do you know
      about Elfrea?

Old Woman: In a hurry, eh? You young
          folks can't rush me. How
          about buying me another
          cider?

Hero:  Yes.

Old Woman: Why, you're getting
          brighter all the time! I
          like that. People should
          be generous.

Hero:  Alright. Now, let's have it.

Old Woman: Hmm. Hmm. To reach Elfrea,
          you have to collect three
          gems: blue, green, and red.

Hero:  Three gems?

Old Woman: There are three islands
          here. Each one has a tower.
          The towers hold the gems.
          Find them, and the way to
          Elfrea will open.
          If you want to find
          Elfrea, You must get
          your hands on these
          three gems.

When you find and speak with the old man.

Old Man: 70 years I've been mining. (I decided to leave this error unfixed.)
        rubies. My whole life has
        been spent on rubies!

Hero:  Listen, sir. We really
      need rubies. Are you sure
      there are no more here?

Old Man: Why do you need rubies?

Hero:  We need them to meet
      someone called Artea.

Old Man: Artea? The Artea of
        Doom Island?

Hero:  You know about him?

Old Man: Everyone of my generation
        knows about Artea! But why
        do you want to see him?

Hero:  The Sinistrals are about
      to return. We need his
      help to stop them!

Old Man: The Sinistrals? Hmm.
        Wait. I'll give you the
        ruby I've been saving.
        Take this one. It's
        the "Hope Ruby".

Hero:  The "Hope Ruby"? Why....
      why is it here?

Old Man: The Kingdom of Medan
        depended on rubies.
        I thought that Medan would
        die without it. So, I kept
        the real one here.
        Of course, a fake one was
        used after that. Perhaps
        there wasn't a reason to
        keep this one.

Hero:  The fake was destroyed.
      The King of Medan
      finally found out.

Old Man: I see. I'm glad to hear
        that. Well, this ruby isn't
        necessary. Here. You take
        it.

Hero:  Are you sure?

Old Man: If I could wish on the
        "Hope Ruby", I'd ask that
        the Sinistrals never
        re-appear.
        It's the best I've found
        in 70 years. I want you
        to have it.

Dark Ghost: Who are you? This tower
           is mine! Did that dratted
           Water Fairy send you?
           I hate intruders!

After defeating Dark Ghost.

Water Fairy: I am the Water Fairy.
           Thanks for removing the
           Dark Ghost. Now I can
           restore the lake again.
           and the toxic marsh
           under this tower will
           also return to it's
           original splendor.
           I really can't thank you
           enough!

After you place the red sapphire on the pedestal.

Jerin: I hear something.

Aguro: I don't hear anything.

Jerin: Only I can hear it. The
      voice of the wind. The
      whisper of Shilf.

Hero:  What do you hear, Jerin?

Jerin: A magical spell. Elfrea's

Hero:  Is it possible?

Jerin: Away we go!

Mirka: Who are you people?
      Where do you think

Artea: Mirka. It's alright.
      Let them pass.

Mirka: Fine. As you wish.

Artea: You came about the
      Sinistrals, didn't you?

Hero:  How did you know that?

Artea: Your energy told me.
      You're related to Maxim,
      are you not?

Hero:  My name's Hero. I am
      a descendant of Maxim.

Artea: I see. I feel the same
      energy from you as Maxim.
      For a moment, I thought
      he was back.

Hero:  You....you're Artea?

Artea: Yes, I am.

Hero:  Artea, the Sinistrals are
      about to return. I must
      have your help.

Artea: I'm sorry, but I can be
      of no help to you.

Hero:  Why not?

Artea: I lost my sight at the
      Battle of Doom Island.
      Besides, I'm old now.

Hero:  Oh, no.

Artea: I'm sorry that I can't
      help you.

Hero:  ........

Artea: I can't help, but perhaps
      the Dual Blade can.

Hero:  Dual Blade? Isn't that the
      sword Maxim used at the
      Battle of Doom Island?

Artea: Exactly. The sword that
      defeated the Sinistrals.
      It's power comes from the
      owner's energy.

Hero:  But I don't have the
      Dual Blade! I don't
      even know where it is!

Artea: It's probably at the bottom
      of the sea with Doom Island.

Hero:  In the sea....?

Artea: You must use the Dual
      Blade to defeat Daos,
      the Chief Sinistral.
      Only one who has the same
      power as Maxim can wield
      the Dual Blade.

Hero:  But what can I do? The
      Dual Blade is at the
      bottom of the sea!

Artea: Do you know Professor
      Raile Shaia?

Lufia: I think we're heard that
      name before, haven't we,
      Hero?

Artea: He's a descendant of Lexis
      Shaia who helped Maxim
      and I a long time ago.
      He's a genius inventor.
      Professor Shaia might know
      a way to travel under the
      sea.
      Odel is south of the small
      Shrine and over the
      mountains. Shaia's lab is in
      the basement of the castle.

Hero:  Alright. I'll go to Odel.

Artea: Hero. You must defeat
      the Sinistrals. We cannot
      relive the nightmare of
      99 years ago.

Hero:  I understand. I swear
      I'll stop them!

Artea: I'll give you this key.
      You should be able to
      reach the small shrine
      from the cellar.
      The rest is up to you.

As you walk away.

Artea: Wait.
      You. Elf child. I have
      something for you.
      Mirka, give her that one.

Mirka: Ok.
      Here. Take this.
(Jerin gets Artea's Bow)

Artea: This is my bow. You have
      elf-blood in you. You'll
      know how to use it.

Jerin: Are you sure I can
      have this?

Artea: How can I help Hero if
      I keep it? Take it and
      help Hero.

Jerin: I understand. Thank you.

Piron: The bridge to Arus is

      That's why.
      I can repair the bridge,
      but not alone. I need my
      own tools and my old crew.
      One of my old gang in
      Lyden. I wonder if you'd
      call him for me?

Hero:  Yes.

Piron: Lyden is southeast of here.
      You'll probably find him

Some guy from Piron's old Gang:

Some guy from Piron's old Gang:
      Piron and I built Odel
      Castle. If he's calling me,
      I have to go.
      I haven't had my desert
      yet, but I'm going to
      Odel right now.

Chef:  Here you are. Your des...
      What happened to the

Lufia: Something came up. He

Jerin: I'll give it a try.
      "Le fallas. La fallas."

Hero:  ........

Aguro: ........

Jerin: I can't do it!

Hero:  Stand back. It's my turn.
      "Le fallas. La fallas."

Aguro: ........

Jerin: ........

Lufia: I'll try now.
      "Le fallas. La fallas."

Aguro: The door disappeared!
      Lufia! You did it!

Lufia: I guess magic is my strong

      changed your mind about me?

Hero:  Yes. Yes.

Jerin: I can't stand this!

Lufia: Well, the road is open.

Aguro: Hey, Hero. Is this flower
      special?

Hero:  It seems to be.

Lufia: Wonderful! Really
      beautiful!

Aguro: Lufia seems so happy.

Hero:  I know. She's ;loved
      flowers ever since she
      was a little girl.

Jerin: Hero? You're known
      Lufia that long?

Hero:  Uh....I guess you could
      say that.

Jerin: I'm a little jealous....

Hero:  ........

Lufia: This village is wonderful!
      I love this place already.

Hero:  Did you have fun?

Lufia: Oh, yes.

Hero:  Well, let's go then.

Lufia: Ok.

When you speak to some old man.

Old man: The people in this village
        are magicians. We locked
        the cave door. How did you
        get through?

Hero:  Lufia opened it.

Old man: Only the most skilled
        magician is supposed to
        know the spell!
        Lufia, eh? You're very
        experienced, I see.

Lufia: No. Not really.

Old man: You should meet the elder
        in the "Tower of Grief". If
        you're a magician, you can
        learn a lot from him.

Flake: I'm Flake, elder of Arus.
      You fought the Sinistrals.

Hero:  You know about that?

Flake: Feel the energy and
      you'll know right away.
      Hmm. Strong power. I
      sense great ability.

Aguro: You can see through Hero's
      character! People are always
      more than they appear to be.

Jerin: Aguro! Don't be rude!

Flake: Ha, ha, ha! It's alright.
      The truth is always best.
      More importantly, who
      removed the magic barrier
      to the village?

Lufia: I did.

Flake: You must have great skill
      to remove such a barrier.
      Come here.
      Your powers will grow.
      I sense much potential.

Lufia: Really?

Flake: Oh, yes! But you've only
      begun to understand. Let
      me help you. Close your
      eyes.

Lufia: Alright.

Flake: Awake! I call upon
      those powers yet
      untouched. Come forth!
(Lufia's maximum MP
increases by 10.)

Hero:  Wow!

Aguro: The magic increased
      merely by those simple
      words!

Flake: It's not my power. She's
      always had it. I simply
      drew it out.

Lufia: I had no idea it was
      there.

Flake: You learned through battle.
      That's the hard way. Had
      you studied, you'd have
      discovered it earlier.

Lufia: I can't thank you enough.

Flake: I sense a great imbalance.
      I fear we may see the
      return of Daos and the
      Sinistrals.

Hero:  We're looking for
      Professor Raile. Do you
      know him?

Flake: He returned to the lab.
      You just missed him.

Raile: Hey! Don't touch anything
      without asking.
      The other day, a man
      touched a machine that
      turns people into frogs.
      That was a tough one!

Jerin: What....what happened
      to him?

Raile: Too bad, that. I made a
      new frog-to-people machine.
      But, he came back as a
      snake instead. Hmm.

Jerin: Snake?

Raile: Then, he became a lizard.
      Then, an iguana. Some people
      are just unlucky, I guess.

Jerin: Did he ever return to
      normal?

Raile: Oh, yes. After 3 days,
      he said, "I never want to
      see a lizard's face as long
      as I live!" Ha, ha, ha!

Jerin: I feel sorry for him.

Raile: Excuse me. Who are you,
      anyway? You don't look
      like my lab students.

Hero:  I'm Hero. These are my
      friends: Aguro, Jerin,
      and Lufia.

Lufia: We're looking for Raile
      Shaia. Would that be you?

Raile: Yes, it would. I am the
      genius Raile Shaia. Why
      the face? You don't
      believe me, is that it?

Hero:  No....no. Of course not, but....

Raile: Alright. I'll prove it to
      you. You look like fighters.
      Wait right here.
      How about this tonic?
      With this, you'll have four
      arms! Be twice as strong!

Hero:  Well, no. I don't think
      so.

Raile: No? I've already run
      experiments on this, so
      the effects are
      guaranteed!

Aguro: You did? On who?

Raile: Let's see. You're Jerin,
      right? For you....
      This is perfect. It's
      guaranteed to make your
      hair grow!

Jerin: Really? Well, maybe I
      could try....

Lufia: Don't you dare!

Jerin: I see. You won't like it
      if my hair looks better
      than yours! Ha, ha, ha!

Lufia: Even if you try it,
      my hair will still be
      longer. Isn't that right,
      Hero?

Hero:  Well, I wouldn't know.
      I've never really
      thought about it.

Lufia: Can't you tell?
      Where are your eyes,
      anyway?

Hero:  I'm not always looking
      at your hair!

Aguro: Hey, Hero. Lufia.
      What are you two
      talking about?

Hero:  Right. We're not here to
      talk about hair.
      We're here for a ship
      that goes under the sea.

Raile: Oh! You mean Falcon. One
      of my best inventions!

Hero:  And Falcon can really
      travel underwater?

Raile: Not only that! It can
      fly through the air!

Hero:  Wow! Where is it?

Raile: It's docked in the
      basement. I normally don't
      show it to anyone. However,
      I'll let you see it.

Raile leads everyone down to the bottom floor.

Raile: Just a second. I'll open
      the door.
      This is Falcon! Isn't she
      amazing?

Jerin: Hero. This ship is
      covered with dust!

Lufia: And the wings are a
      little chipped.

Aguro: Hmm. There's a hole in
      the ceiling.

Hero:  Sorry to ask, but you've
      never used Falcon before,
      have you?

Raile: How did you know that?

Lufia: Well, anyone could tell
      just by looking at it.

Raile: Well, if that's all you
      have to say, I'll give
      you a demonstration.

Hero:  Right now?

Raile: You wanted to use Falcon,
      didn't you? I'm saying you
      can. Are you having second
      thoughts?

Hero:  Actually, he's right.

Lufia: Are you seriously getting
      into this thing?

Raile: What are you waiting
      for? Let's go!

Hero:  Come on! We need this
      ship to find the Dual
      Blade.

They all board the ship.

Raile: Everyone ready?
      Ahead half speed!
      Prepare to dive!

?????: Is this vessel really
      seaworthy?

Raile: What do you take me for?

?????: Hey! It's leaking! Are you
      sure we won't sink?

Raile: We're fine. Pipe down!

?????: I'm getting soaked!

Raile: Prepare to surface!

?????: I think traveling above
      the sea was a better idea!

Raile: Will you be quiet? You
      amateurs know nothing!

The ship docks back at Shai lab.

Raile: There's a slight problem.
      Underwater navigation is
      impossible. There's no
      problem on the surface,
      though.

Hero:  ........

Raile: Of course, I can repair it.
      But my equipment isn't here.
      Come to Shaia Lab 3 later.
      Straight west from here.

Lufia: He ran away, didn't he?

Hero:  I guess so.

Aguro: He just wanted to leave
      us with this contraption,
      didn't he?

Hero:  He's different. That's
      for sure!

Jerin: But somehow, I like him.

Lufia: ......

Aguro: ......

Hero:  He doesn't seem so bad.

Aguro: Anyway, we can travel
      across the sea now. Let's
      make good use of it.

Hero:  Let's head for Shaia lab

Aguro: You should go and get him

      Sorry, Professor. He's

Jerin: His mind is worse!

Aguro: What?

Jerin: I just told the truth!

Lufia: Listen, you two.

      He's probably at the

Cooper: I can see that. It's

Raile: I though so. Is there

Hero:  What's Alumina?

Raile: It's a light metal that

Hero:  How much do you need?

Raile: Seven pieces should

Hero:  Where can I find it?

Raile: There's a cave in the Fargo

Amon:  That mortal was weak. He

Aguro: They said Daos was nearly
      revived, didn't they?

Hero:  I must have the Dual Blade
      before that happens!
      We have to find those 7
      Alumina so Falcon can
      travel underwater!

Lufia: Brant is in Linze. He should
      know where he can find some.

Hero:  Let's move! Quickly!

When you find and speak to Clack.

Hero:  Are you Brant?

Clack: No. I'm Clack, the Doom
      Island researcher.

Hero:  Doom Island researcher?

Clack: I'm interested in Doom
      Island. Ask me anything
      about it.

Hero:  I want to know about:
      Doom Island

Clack: East of here is Ring Island.
      It was created when Doom
      Island fell into the sea.
      There's a lagoon in the
      middle of the island. Some
      folks say that the Fortress
      of Doom is at the bottom.

Hero:  In the center of Ring
      Island. I see.

Clack: There are three sea caves
      around Ring Island. They
      lead to the center of
      the lagoon.
      I recently discovered
      something unbelievable
      about Doom Island!

Hero:  What did you discover?

Clank: The ocean currents flow
      near Doom Island. But
      they've changed recently.

Hero:  What caused that?

Clank: Well, it seems that the
      island is starting to move.
      I'm afraid that something
      terrible is about to happen!

Hero:  I want to know about:
      Dual Blade

Clank: The Fortress of Doom should
      hold the Dual Blade.

Hero:  The Fortress of Doom?

Clank: It's where the final battle
      was fought. The Dual Blade
      sank with it into the sea.
      The fortress was supposed
      to have disappeared with
      Doom Island when it fell
      into the center of Ring.

Hero:  I want to know about:
      Brant
      Do you know anything
      about Brant?

Clank: He's my friend. What's
      your business with him?

Hero:  I need Alumina. I heard
      that Brant knows where
      to find some.

Clank: Yes. He'd be the one to
      know. He lived by it.
      Of course he said that
      there's hardly any left
      these days.

Hero:  I heard Brant was here,
      so I came. Do you know
      where he is?

Clank: He told the townspeople
      that? Hmm. Brant's in
      Marse.

Hero:  Is Marse near here?

Clank: His girlfriend lives there.
      It's a secret, you see.
      So, he said he was here.
      Marse is a port north of
      Linze. Follow the shoreline
      by boat and you'll find it.
      If he's not in Marse, he's
      in the caves, looking for
      Alumina.

Hero:  I want to know about:
      Alumina

Clank: There was a lot of it in
      the old days. Now, you can
      only find it in the Fargo
      Islands.
      The Fargo Islands are
      north of here.
      Brant goes there all the
      time.
      There might even be some
      Alumina here, if you
      search this cave well.

When you walk away from Clank.

Clank: By the way, who are you?

Hero:  I'm Hero, descendant
      of Maxim.

Clank: Maxim's descendant?
      No kidding!

Hero:  It's true.

Clank: I have something to give
      you. Follow me.

They follow him.

Clank: Found it long ago. The
      ring Maxim used. This
      might be of great help
      to you.
(Hero gets wave ring.)

Hero:  Can I really have this?
      It's been yours for so
      long!

Clank: Please. Take it. If it helps
      to destroy the Sinistrals,
      then all my research hasn't
      been in vain after all!
      If you really have Maxim's
      blood, you will defeat the
      Sinistrals. I believe it.

When you find and speak to Brant.

Brant: I fell down here when I
      was looking for Alumina.
      I found some, but now I
      can't get out!
      If you can use magic, please
      help me.

Hero:  Yes.

Jerin: You'll be fine. My
      magic will bring you up.

Brant: Really? Great! Thanks
      a lot!

Hero:  By the way, we're looking
      for Brant. Are you by any
      chance....?

Brant: That's me. You're looking
      for me?

Hero:  I'm looking for Alumina,
      too. I heard you knew
      where to find it.

Brant: I see. Well, you helped me.
      So, I'll make an exception
      and tell you where it is.
      There's 1 piece in the cave
      on Elba Island, 2 on Ulupp
      Island, and 1 on Loire
      Island.
      Warp zones link the caves
      on Elba and Ulupp. You
      must remember this fact,
      or you could become lost.

Hero:  I understand. Let's
      get you out of here.

Jerin: Escape!

When you speak with Brant after escaping.

Brant: Thanks. Take this for all
      you've done.
(Hero gets some Alumina.)
      Well, I'm out of here!
      My girlfriend is waiting
      for me in Marse.

Chef:  You! Young lady.
      Would you taste this,
      please?

Jerin: Oh. Wow! Delicious!
      But strange. Mm.
      What is it?

Chef:  Strained slime.

Jerin: Slime? Oh! Yuck!
      Don't let people eat
      this! Ugh!

Aguro: Hey, slime elf! How
      was it? Ha, ha, ha!

Jerin: Slime elf? Do you think
      I ate this on purpose?
      Oh, Hero!

Hero:  Aguro! You hurt Jerin's
      feelings! How could you?

Aguro: Just a little joke,
      that's all. A joke!

Hero:  Jerin. No one will call
      you a slime elf anymore.

Jerin: Oh. I know, Hero.

Lufia: YAH! Slime elf!

Jerin: WAAHH!

Hero:  Lufia!!!

Lufia: Well? You always pay
      attention to Jerin!
      Why don't you ever
      notice me?

Chef:  It's not poison. You
      won't die if you eat it,
      you know.

Hero:  Why are you cooking with
      slime, anyway?

Chef: My King loves good food.
     But, he's been so picky
     recently. It's really
     starting to annoy me!

When you speak to the Wizard of Taste.

Wizard of Taste:
      What? King Herat said he
      wanted something to eat?
      Now that's the King I
      know!

Lufia: Do you know King Herat?

Wizard of Taste:
      He's famous for his
      appetite. He's eaten almost
      everything I've made.

Jerin: Are there any dishes that
      surprised him recently?

Wizard of Taste:
      Well, there's one....but
      it's not really a dish.

Jerin: What is it?

Wizard of Taste:
      It's a flavor. A spell has
      been cast on it. That's
      why any food tastes great
      with it.

Jerin: Fantastic!

Wizard of Taste:
      Don't jump to conclusions
      so quickly. You think the
      dish is good, but that
      doesn't mean it is good.

Aguro: So, you're saying that
      even dishes everyone
      hates would actually
      taste good. Right?

Wizard of Taste:
      Right.

Lufia: But that's amazing! Why
      did you make such a thing!

Wizard of Taste:
      It was originally for
      emergencies. You use it
      when there's nothing to
      eat. Like a famine.

Lufia: I see. I guess it has
      some uses.

Wizard of Taste:
      I sympathize with the
      people. The King's appetite
      was becoming intolerable!

Lufia: Such tastes are expensive,
      aren't they?

Hero:  I don't mind.
      Can I have some?

Wizard of Taste:
      To tell the truth, I haven't
      really finished it. I need
      a purple newt.
      I heard I could find one in
      the cave east of Herat. I
      went there myself. But, I
      didn't see any.
      I could finish this if I
      had a purple newt.

When you speak to the Wizard of Taste after getting a purple newt.

Wizard of Taste:
      That's a purple newt!
      Wait. I'll fix up a dish
      right away!
      Take this. I guarantee that
      it will satisfy King Herat!
(Hero gets the "Magic Flavor".)

      It's done. Please try it.

Hero:  Mm. Wow! That's good!

Lufia: Yes! Really delicious!

Aguro: Now this is excellent!
      What's the matter, Jerin?
      Don't you want to try it?
      Uh, no. Not right now.

Chef: The King will love this!
     You've been a big help.

Raile: Hello. Some here I turned
      out to be! Now I'm the one
      who has to be rescued!
      Please find the prison
      key. The head pirate
      should have it.
      You must press four switches
      to open the door. Get the
      order right. I messed up and
      got caught.
      I learned the hard way!
      I'm sure the first switch
      is the upper left one!

When you approach the Pirates on the top floor.

Bosun: Scurvy scum! Come to rescue
      the lad, have ye? Arrr!
      Don't be thinking you'll
      leave here safely!

After defeating the pirates.

Hero:  Good to see you again, Lou.

Lufia: Do you remember us?

Lou:   You....you! Are you still
      chasing me? My stealing
      days are over!

Lufia: Don't be silly. We're
      here to rescue you.

Hero:  What were you doing
      hanging around a place
      like this anyway?

Lou:   Well, you know. I had
      some business to take
      care of.

Lufia: Looking for your father,
      weren't you?

Lou:   No way! I don't care at
      all for someone like......

Lufia: He's here, looking for you.
      But the pirates caught him.

Lou:   Really? Father tried to
      rescue me? Father?

Lufia: Let's return together
      after we rescue your
      father.

After rescuing Raile.

Raile: Good grief! Thank you!

Lou:   Caught so easily by the
      pirates, eh? What a klutz!
      You haven't changed a bit!

Raile: Huh? Isn't......isn't that
      boy......? Why, it's Lou!

Lou:   Yo! Dad! You didn't
      know it was me for a
      moment, did you?

Raile: That's because boys of your
      age grow so fast. It's hard
      to recognize them.

Lou:   You can't recognize your
      own son just because I
      grew taller?

Raile: Don't be silly.

Lufia: Stop it you two! It's been
      a long time since you've
      met. Don't start by arguing!

Hero:  Like father, like son, eh?

Aguro: Oh, brother!

Hero:  By the way, Raile. We've
      found 7 pieces of Alumina.
      Can we repair Falcon now?

Raile: Of course. Let's start
      right away! Please go to
      Lab 3.

Everybody appears outside.

Raile: I'm sailing back to Lab 3.
      What will you do, Lou?

Lou:   Oh, I don't know. Maybe....

Lufia: Go with your father, Lou.

Hero:  Yes. Go with your father,
      Lou.

Lou:   To tell the truth, I
      really don't want to go with
      him. But, I don't know what
      he'll do without me.

Aguro: You're right. Watch him
      carefully. Ha, ha, ha, ha!

Lufia: Raile, be good to him,
      won't you?

Raile: I'm always good to Lou!

Lou:   If that's true, why don't
      you write once in a while?

Raile: Write? You know, I just
      invented a voice box.
      Use this and you can speak
      to someone far away.
      You won't need letters.

Jerin: Awesome! That sounds
      really handy.

Raile: Of course, you'll need
      a cord to connect them,
      you see.

Lou:   Why are you always
      making such useless
      things?

Raile: Useless? I don't think so.
      You can talk to anyone,
      anywhere in the world
      with this!
      Isn't that amazing?

Lou:   Who's going to lay the line?
      THINK before you dream
      something up!

Lufia: Oh, these two....

Hero:  Don't worry. Look.

Raile: Of course! There's nothing

Raile: Falcon can dive wherever

Aguro: What the......!?

Statues rise from the ground.

Hero:  Sinistrals!

Aguro: No. Stone statues of the

Hero:  Those ones are Amon and
      Gades. Good work. Looks

Aguro: That means Daos and Erim
      are at the back.
      Hero. Come here for a
      moment.

Hero:  This one!?

Lufia: Is this statue....me?
      Is this me?

Jerin: This is Lufia, isn't it?
      Why is a statue of Lufia
      among the Sinistrals?

Lufia: How would I know?

Jerin: But everyone would agree
      that this is a statue of
      Lufia.

Lufia: What? Are you saying
      I'm a Sinistral?

Jerin: Well, no. I didn't mean
      it that way.

Lufia: I'm Lufia. I was raised by
      Roman at the Alekia Inn.
      I'm just an ordinary woman.
      I know nothing about this.

Hero:  Lufia.

Lufia: Hero! It's true. I really

Hero:  I know. How long do you
      think we've known each
      other? You're Lufia, and
      no one else.

Lufia: Hero....

Aguro: Wait! Could this be a trap?
      Is someone trying to break
      us up?

?????: Possibly......

Amon and Gades appear.

Hero:  Amon! Gades!

Daos Appears.

Daos:  Maxim's descendant lives.

Hero:  Daos? Is that Daos?

Daos:  Yes. I am Daos. The waiting
      is finally over. The day of
      our reunion has arrived.

Hero:  Reunion? Where's Erim?
      I don't see her.

Daos:  Erim was revived
      16 years ago.

Hero:  16 years?

Daos:  Indeed. Erim is Lufia.
      Lufia is Erim.

Lufia: LIAR! You lie!

Daos:  Lufia. Do you remember
      your parents?

Lufia: ........

Daos:  Of course not. You have no
      parents. They never existed.
      You are Erim.

Lufia: ........!

Daos:  We can use our energy to
      assume any form we choose.

Hero:  Lufia doesn't remember her
      parents because they died
      when she was small.

Daos:  So you say. But why do you
      think we let you live this
      long?

Hero:  ........

Daos:  I am pleased. You have
      brought Lufia back to me.

Hero:  What are you saying?

Daos:  Don't you see? Maxim
      destroyed us 99 years
      ago. Now Lufia has
      returned us to life.
      Lufia's power brought
      our energies together
      once more.

Lufia: NO! NOOO!!

Hero:  It's a lie! She could never
      revive you! You're lying!

Daos:  Hear me, mortal! Look past
      your emotion. see the truth
      of my words.
      Go ahead. Ask her
      a question.

Daos uses a spell on Lufia.

Lufia: Aaaah!

Hero:  Lufia! Lufia! Speak to me!

Daos:  She is still alive. I only
      shocked her to unlock the
      memories.

Lufia: My head. Hero, help me!

Hero:  Lufia! Hang on!

Amon:  Daos. Her recovery will
      take time.

Daos:  We have all the time

Lufia walks over to Hero and Aguro's room.

Lufia: Hero? Are you awake?

Aguro: Hero. What are we

Hero:  About what?

Aguro: Lufia, of course.

Hero:  What's wrong with Lufia?

Aguro: Stop living in a fantasy!
      Can you deny what Daos
      said?

Hero:  What are you saying?
      Erim's dead. All we have
      to do is destroy Amon,
      Daos, and Gades!

Aguro: I agree. But, remember what
      Daos said about the reunion!
      Do you think Lufia brought
      the Sinistrals back to life?

Hero:  What are you trying
      to say?

Aguro: Even if we destroy the 3
      remaining Sinistrals,
      they'll continue to return
      as long as Lufia lives!

Hero:  ........

Aguro: If it's true, Hero, what
      are you going to do?

Hero:  We have to destroy them!

Aguro: Hero? Do you realize what
      you're saying?

Hero:  ........

Aguro: You'll have to destroy
      Lufia, too. Can you do
      that?

Hero:  Truthfully, I'm not sure.
      I've never really thought
      about it.
      Obviously, I don't want
      to think about it either.
      Aguro. Listen to me.

Aguro: What is it?

Hero:  Do you think Lufia would
      try to harm us?

Aguro: Why are you asking me?
      How should I know?

Hero:  Let's not talk about it
      anymore. We'll just wait
      and see what happens.

Aguro: Alright.

Hero:  Let's see if Jerin and
      Lufia are awake yet.

Lufia runs back to her and Jerin's room and gets into bed.

Lufia: Ok. It doesn't hurt now.
      I'm fine.

Hero:  Good.

Lufia: Aren't you going to ask me?

Hero:  What?

Lufia: My memory! Don't you

      memory's returned?

Hero:  You don't remember a

Lufia: No. But, do you trust

Hero:  It doesn't matter. You're

      remember anything.

Lufia: Hero.

Hero:  Do you trust yourself?

Lufia: Thanks. I'm fine.

Aguro: Hero:  What will we do

      Louise! Bring the Falcon
      around.

Louise: Ok.

Raile: Here we go!
      The refit is finished.
      Press the "A" button to
      make her fly.

Hero:  Thanks for everything,
      Professor. I promise to
      do everything in my power
      to defeat the Sinistrals!

Raile: Take Falcon. Please bring
      it, and yourselves, back
      in one piece, won't you?

Lufia: The four of us!

Aguro: That's right. We'll be
      back when this is over.

Jerin: Yes. We'll all return
      together, right Hero?

Hero:  Trust us, Professor. We'll
      bring her back.

Raile: Remember that, and you'll
      be fine. I'm finished here.
      The rest is up to you.

Hero:  I understand.

Some guy: Professor! Doom Island is
         moving again! It's over
         the roof of Glasdar Tower!

Raile: What? Glasdar Tower?
      I don't like the sound
      of that!

Cooper: There's bad turbulence
       around Glasdar Tower.
       Falcon can't get close
       enough for a landing!

Raile: There's a connecting cave
      south of the tower. It's
      surrounded by mountains, but
      Falcon can take you there.

Hero:  Very well. Let's head
      for the cave.

After speaking to the Dragon.

Dragon: So, you have 8 Dragon
       Eggs.
       Tell me what you want:

       Raise everyone two level.
       Give each 3 "~ Potions".
       We want a Might shield.
       We want a Might bow.

After choosing one.

Dragon: Dragon Eggs were scattered
       around the world and placed
       in different treasure boxes.
       You must bring me 8 more
       eggs if you want other
       wishes to come true.

When you speak to some guy.

Some guy: There's a locked door to
         the passage that leads to
         Mt. Glasdar.
         I know where it's hidden.
         Do you want to know?

Hero:  Yes.

Some guy: First, bring me some apple
         cider from the basement.
         The old man only sells to
         people he likes.

When you speak to the old man.

Old man: Best plum cider in the
        world! Made it myself!

After you give the guy Apple Cider.

Some guy: Now that's what I call
         great apple cider!
         Mm. Good stuff! Delicious!
         The key should be in the
         cave that's north of
         Glasdar Tower.

When you reach the top of the tower.

Nazeby: Welcome! I am Nazeby, agent
       of Daos. I have the honor
       of sending you......TO YOUR
       DOOM!

After defeating Nazeby.

Nazeby: Defeated by mortals?!
       How will....I explain
       this to my master?
       I know! you shall be
       my gift!

Lufia: Aaaah!

Hero:  Lufia! What's wrong?
      The Dual Blade is
      ringing!

Lufia: My......my head! Aaah!

Hero, Aguro, and Jerin are thrown to the floor unconscious.

Lufia: What? Did I do this?

Daos:  The power is release. In
      time all shall be revealed.

Lufia: That voice! It's Daos!

Hero:  Lu....Lufia.

Lufia: Maxim....Maxim?
      No. It's Hero!

Daos:  I am pleased. The Dual
      Blade triggered your mind.
      My little gamble succeeded.

Lufia: Daos? Where are you?
      What do you mean?
      What are you saying?

Daos:  Why do you think I would
      not destroy the very thing
      that threatens me?

Lufia: ........

Daos:  Is it not clear? I gave
      you Dual Blade to restore
      your memory, Lufia.

Lufia: No....it can't be....

Daos:  Accept the truth. I sense
      your struggle. The memories
      of Lufia are fading, while
      Erim's grow stronger!

Lufia: ........

Daos:  Didn't you call Hero
      "Maxim"? Their energy
      is the same.
      Erim. Take the Dual Blade
      and come to me!

Lufia: You must be joking!

Daos:  Lufia's memories are
      fading away. Accept the
      truth. You are Erim, the
      Sinistral of Death!

Lufia: No! I don't believe you!

Daos:  Erim! Take the Dual Blade,
      or it will be you who fades
      into oblivion!

Lufia: Hero will destroy me......

Daos:  Our only foes are those
      with the blood of Maxim!

Lufia: Hero? The foe?

Daos:  Lufia is gone. Forget
      about Hero. Come back
      to me.

Lufia: Forget about Hero?

Lufia takes the Dual Blade and warps away

?????: Daos! Destroy Hero now!
      We have him!

Daos: No. She still has Lufia's
     thoughts. There will be
     another time.

?????: I understand.

Daos:  We have Dual Blade.
      Hero is nothing
      without it!

Aguro  and Jerin awake.

Aguro: What....what happened?
      Are you alright, Hero?

Hero:  I'm fine. Lufia?
      Jerin? Are you alright?

Jerin: Yes.

Hero:  Lufia? Where's Lufia??

Aguro: She's gone!

Jerin: Hero! The Dual Blade!

Hero:  Where is it?
      I can't find it!
      IT'S GONE!!

Aguro: Hero. Can it be true?

Hero:  Don't say it, Aguro. Not
      a word! This can't be
      true!

Jerin: Hero.

The scene switches to Lufia and the three other Sinistrals.

Daos:  Erim. Welcome, my sister.

Lufia: I have the Dual Blade.

Daos:  Good. Give it to me.

Lufia: Why didn't you destroy me?
      I could have defeated you
      with this.

Daos:  You wouldn't do that.
      You are Erim. You're
      one of us.

Lufia: ........

Daos:  Now. Give me the Dual Blade.
      Wretched sword!
      Feel my wrath!

Daos breaks the Dual Blade.

Daos:  We are one. The world will
      once again be ours. The
      reign of Terror returns!
      Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!

The scene switches back to Hero, Aguro, and Jerin.

Aguro: Hero! Doom Island is
      starting to move again!

Jerin: It's heading southeast.

Hero:  Come one! After it!


******************************************************************************
63. Doom Island Fortress 2 ***************************************************
******************************************************************************
When you reach the end of the Fortress.

Jerin: Hero! The Dual Blade!

Aguro: It's smashed into splinters!

Daos, Gades, and Amon warp in.

Hero:  Daos!

Daos:  You cannot win without
      the Dual Blade.

Hero:  ........

Daos:  Hero. Why do you fight us?

Hero:  I want Lufia back.

Daos:  Really? But does she want
      you? I wonder.......

Lufia warps in.

Hero:  Lufia.

Lufia: ........

Hero:  Lufia!

Daos:  There is your answer.

Lufia: ........

Hero:  LUFIAAA!!

Aguro: Wait! What's that sound?

Hero:  It's the Dual Blade!

Daos:  Impossible!
      We destroyed it!

Aguro: It's flowing with
      Hero's energy!

The Dual Blade fixes itself and returns to Hero.

Hero:  Dual Blade!

Jerin: Hero!

Aguro: Hero!

Hero:  Maxim. Thank you.

Gades: So! The little knight has
      a little sword! But does
      he know how to play with
      it?

After defeating Gades and moving forward.

Amon:  Here is your reward for
      99 years of grief!

After defeating Amon and moving forward.

Daos:  Your energy flows just
      like Maxim's did.
      But can you wield the
      Dual Blade? Let us see!

After defeating Daos.

Daos:  This time I will finish
      what I started 99 years
      ago!

Aguro: Four Sinistrals become
      one!

Jerin: How can this be possible?

Hero:  Lufia! Lufia!

Gades: The energy of the Dual
      Blade! It can't be!

Amon:  Daos! Erim's energy is
      growing unstable!

Daos:  Erim! My sister!

Lufia: My....my head! Aaaah!

Hero:  Lufia!
      Lufia! Can you hear me?

Lufia: Hero?

Hero:  Do you know me?

Lufia: I remember....but, who
      am I?

Hero:  Good. Good!

Lufia: Hero.

Aguro: Hero, Lufia! Stand back!
      The Sinistrals are changing
      again!

Daos:  Descendant of Maxim!
      Nothing will stand
      against me this time!
      Come to me! Meet the
      hideous destiny you
      so richly deserve!

After defeating Guard Daos.

Hero:  Lufia.
      Lufia?

Lufia: Hold the sword, Hero.

Hero:  Lufia....Lufia. What....?

Lufia: 16 years ago, I was born
      as Lufia. But I was Erim
      long before that.

Hero:  I....I don't believe that!

Lufia: Just as the Sinistrals are
      your enemies, those with
      Maxim's blood are mine.

Hero:  How can we be enemies?
      The Sinistrals are my foes,
      not you.

Lufia: I am the Sinistral Erim.
      Even if you defeat Amon,
      Daos, and Gades....they'll
      return again as long as
      I live.

Hero:  ........!

Lufia: Finish this, Hero.

Hero:  Lufia! Don't do this!

Lufia: Hero. destroy me!!

Hero:  The Dual Blade?
      Why did the Dual Blade
      go to Lufia? Where is
      she? I never wanted to
      fight her!

Lufia: Hero.

Hero:  Lufia!

Lufia: I was so scared. All the
      memories of Erim flooded
      into my mind! They just
      wouldn't stop!
      I started to forget about
      you, Hero.

Hero:  That's why you disappeared
      in front of me?

Lufia: But....when you called
      my name, I realized....I
      remembered you, Hero.

Hero:  Don't talk now.

Lufia: Hero, it's alright.
      The Sinistrals are gone
      forever.

Hero:  Lufia! Hold on!

Lufia: Hero. I was much happier
      in the short time I lived
      as Lufia than the eternity
      I spent as Erim.

Hero:  What are you talking about?
      We'll always be together.

Lufia: Hero, I don't want to
      go, yet. I want to be
      close to you, Hero.

Hero:  You won't die! I won't
      let you, Lufia!

Lufia: Really?

Hero:  Trust me!

Lufia: We'll always be together?
      For a long time? Good.
      Good......

Hero:  A long time, Lufia.

Lufia: ........

Hero:  Lufia?

Lufia: ........

Hero:  Lufia!

The bridge starts to collapse and Lufia falls off.

Aguro: Hero! Doom Island!
      It's falling!

Jerin: Let's get out of here!
      It's too dangerous!

Aguro: Hero! Come quickly!

Hero:  Lufia.

Aguro: What are you doing?
      Come on!

64. The Ending ***************************************************************
******************************************************************************
The scene switches to Shai Lab 4.

Cooper: Professor! Doom Island
       is descending!

Raile: Is it trying to land
      somewhere?

Cooper: No! It's out of control!
       It's falling!

Raile: What? Falling? Wow!
      They did it!

The scene switches to the Tower of Grief.

Old man: Elder! Doom Island!

Flake: I know. I felt the
      energy vanish.

Old man: You mean?

Flake: It's finished.

Old man: At last!

Flake: The people of our world
      can live in peace and
      safety once more.

Old man: Hurray!

The scene switches to Elfrea.

Artea: It's finished.

Mirka: What's the matter, Artea?

Artea: My long battle is over
      at last. Finally, real
      peace will arrive!
      Guy. Maxim. Selan.....All
      over. Everything is
      coming to an end.

The scene switched to Guy's grave.

Ainea: Uncle!

Former Guy Legion Knight:
      I know.
      Everything is fine now,
      Guy. Rest in peace.
      Sleep well.

The scene switches back to Doom Island.

Aguro: Hero! We're getting out
      of here!

Jerin: Hero! Quickly!

The three escape, board Falcon and fly to land.

Aguro: Whew! We escaped just in
      time!

Jerin: Any longer, and we would
      have disappeared with
      Doom Island!

Hero walks away.

Jerin: Hero!

Aguro: Don't Jerin. There's
      nothing you can say to
      Hero right now.

Jerin: But....but!

Aguro: We defeated the Sinistrals.
      Our journey ends here.
      No one can stop Hero.

Jerin: So, are we supposed to
      say goodbye now?
      Must it end this way?
      I can't........
      Hero....

One year later....

In Lorbenia.

Knight: Commander Aguro! Where
       are you going? We're
       training recruits today.
       You have to be there!

Aguro: I have something else to
      do. I leave the training
      to you. You can do it.

Knight: But! It's my first time!
       I can't....!

Aguro: Silence! Stop moaning!
      Just do it! That's an
      order!

Knight: Yes, sir!

Aguro runs to the Jerin at the dock.

Aguro: Sorry to be so long,
      Jerin.

Jerin: It's been a year.
      Hasn't it, Aguro?

Aguro: Yes.

Jerin: I wonder what happened
      to Hero?

Aguro: I don't know. He's not in
      Alekia. I don't know where
      he is now, but....

Jerin: But what?

Aguro: I know I'll see him again.
      I just feel it.

Jerin: Yes. I feel the same thing.
      We'll see him again.

Aguro: A year has passed, Jerin.
      And there's something I
      want to tell you.

Jerin: What's going on, Aguro?
      It's not like you to be
      so serious.

Aguro: How long do you think
      you're going to stay in
      this town?

Jerin: What?

Aguro: What do you mean, "What?"
      A year ago, you said there
      was no place for you to go.
      So I brought you here.
      And yet, you've never
      looked for a new home.

Jerin: What are you saying?
      Am I bothering you?

Aguro: Yes. You're bothering me.
      Thanks to you, I can't even
      eat unless I serve in the
      army!

Jerin: Hey! I earn my keep,
      don't I?

Aguro: It costs more than that
      when two people live
      together. I don't even
      have a girlfriend!

Jerin: You couldn't find a
      girlfriend even if I
      wasn't living with you!

Aguro: You weren't cute when I
      met you! One year later,
      you're still not cute!

Jerin: I don't care if you think
      I'm cute or not!

Aguro: What an attitude!
      No wonder you can't find
      a new place to live!

The scene switches to Arus.

Hero:  Arus village. Lufia's
      favorite flower, Priphea,
      was in full bloom then.

Hero walks to the flower and sees Lufia?

Hero:  ........!!

Lufia: Hello. Are you a traveler?

Hero:  Yes. I'm Hero. I've been
      traveling around the world
      for about a year now.

Lufia: Around the world? I envy
      you. I've never been far
      from the village.

Hero:  Excuse me, but may I
      ask your name?

Lufia: I'm Lufia. I live in
      this village with my
      grandfather.

Hero:  Lu....Lufia?

Lufia: Is there....is there something
      wrong with my name?

Hero:  No! No. Not at all.

Lufia: Oh, Grandpa!
      Grandpa. This is Hero. He's
      been traveling around the
      world.

Flake: Oh my! Welcome to our
      little village. We're
      simple people, but please
      enjoy your stay here.

Lufia: Say, Grandpa. If it's
      alright, why don't we
      let him stay with us?
      I want to hear about
      the world outside
      this village.

Flake: Now, that's a good idea.
      What do you say, Hero?
      Would you tell her some
      of your stories?

Hero:  Of course. I'd be happy
      to.

Lufia: Oh, thank you! I'll go
      and make some tea!

Hero:  Tell me, Flake.
      Who is she?

Flake: That's Lufia.

Hero:  That can't be true!
      Lufia is....a year ago....
      I....

Flake: We moved to this village
      after her fall from Doom
      Island. She was weak, but
      she survived.

Hero:  So, you're saying that
      she's really Lufia?

Flake: Yes. She's Lufia alright.
      But she can't use magic
      now.

Hero:  What do you mean, she
      can't use magic?

Flake: She's just an ordinary girl
      now.

Hero:  But, why....?

Flake: Maybe because of the Dual
      Blade. It's great power
      affects people in
      different ways.
      The  blade's energy changed
      Lufia. Her magic and her
      memory......all gone.

Hero:  Changed her? How can
      that be?

Flake: No doubt about it. When
      I found her, she couldn't
      even remember how to
      speak.

Hero:  Well, what about her
      memory now?

Flake: I taught her what she
      knows. Parts of that
      are just an illusion.

Hero:  I didn't know. But why
      do you want me to help
      Lufia so much?

Flake: I don't know. I just....

Lufia: Grandpa! Hero! Tea's ready.
      Come inside and relax.

Flake: Oh, you made cinnamon tea.
      You usually don't make it.
      What changed your mind?

Lufia: Well, we have a guest and I
      thought it would be nice.

Flake: When my guests come,
      you make ordinary tea.

Lufia: That's not true! Sometimes
      I make it for your guests!

Flake: Ha! Ha! That's alright. My
      friends alone can't make
      you do this. I understand.
      But Hero is your own age,
      Lufia. I know you'd want
      to do something special!

Lufia: What! Oh, you! How can you
      say that, Grandpa?
      Forgive us, Hero.
      Just ignore him.

Flake: I see. So, Lufia. You're
      saying you don't like
      him?

Lufia: I never said that! Let's
      just have our tea, please.

Hero:  It's Lufia. It's really
      her, isn't it?

Flake: Yes. But she's different
      from the Lufia you knew.

Hero:  I don't care! As long as
      she's alive.

Flake: Even without her memory?
      She doesn't even remember
      you.

Hero:  Memories......
      That's alright. We'll
      make new memories.

Lufia: What are you two talking
      about? The tea's getting
      cold. Come inside quick!

Flake: Come. Come in, Hero.
      Lufia's waiting.

Hero:  I'll be right there.
