Dialogue

G'raha Tia:

• Are you all ready to continue on?
• Then let us make for where that light shone. Y'shtola and Urianger have opened the way for us.

Alphinaud:

• Yes, I can feel it! The aether emanating from the arcane pattern!
• This is a portal, and no mistake. Let us see where it leads.
• Amazing... Yet another civilization...

Alisaie:

• Attacked as soon as you arrived!? Not the most welcoming of places, is it...

G'raha Tia:

• We must try to find denizens who are amenable to conversation.

Alphinaud:

• We should also get the lay of the land, see how far we can go.

Alisaie:

• I'll help Alphinaud with that. In the meantime, you and G'raha can search for friendlier folk.

G'raha Tia:

• Apart from hostile beings, take care with your footing. I mislike the look of this terrain.

Alisaie:

• Not knowing what the locals are like, you'd best take care yourselves. We'll find you once we've finished exploring.

G'raha Tia:

• I expect the twins will seek the outermost bounds of the isle, so I propose we search the central area.
• There are machines patrolling here and there. Sentinels, in all likelihood.
• Like those you encountered, they will most certainly attack any who venture too close.
• So let us avoid them, and look for others that appear more approachable.
• Look, Player. The machines here do not appear hostile. Let's see if we can communicate with them...
• Begging your pardon, but we are searching for the denizens of this star.

M-032:

• Bzzzt... Unknown life-forms detected. Assigning generic label: interplanetary travelers.
• Greetings and welcome to the planet. <blip> <bloooooop>

G'raha Tia:

• The planet...what? Could you please repeat that?

M-032:

• It appears your hearing organ is unable to process the name in our tongue. It may be translated into yours as “Alphatron.”
• Our people, meanwhile, are called the Omicrons, and you stand within one of our outposts.

G'raha Tia:

• The Omicrons, you say... And what is it that you do here?

M-032:

• We are preparing for war.
• As we presently do not have a designated target, you have nothing to fear.
• Should your star become designated, however, you will be taken into custody and or terminated.

G'raha Tia:

• Not a little frightening, these Omicrons, but at least they seem to be forthright...
• I will see what else I can learn from this fellow, if you could try speaking with the others?

M-097:

• Bzzzt... Greetings, traveler. When venturing outside the outpost, beware malfunctioning units.
• They do not heed Sir's commands, and indiscriminately attack all non-Omicrons.
• For the avoidance of confusion, be advised that “Sir” is the alias of Stigma-1. Sir issues instructions to our forces as the foremost of the six strategic matrices that bear the designation Stigma.

N-0253:

• Bzzzt... Measuring combat capability...Result: negligible. Subject falls outside targeting parameters.
• Greetings, traveler. We are the Omicrons, and our objective is self-enhancement.
• In order to achieve this, we venture forth in conquest to acquire combat data and resources.
• Most recently, we succeeded in subjugating the home world of the beings whose strength was said to be without parallel: the dragons.
• Yet though the endeavor yielded a wealth of combat data, the star was rendered barren and unable to yield resources. A subsequent costing determined that the losses incurred exceeded the gains.

N-0055:

• <blip> <bloop> Autonomous weapon deployment: complete. Vanguard armament upgrade: complete. Munition levels: satisfactory.
• Combat readiness assessment: nominal. Awaiting instructions from Sir.
• Maintaining state of combat readiness.

G'raha Tia:

• You learned a few things? So did I. Ere we share our findings, however, I believe it best to step outside the outpost. Come with me.

Alisaie:

• Ah, there you are!

Alphinaud:

• We've finished surveying the area. This will come as no surprise, but there was no way forward.

Alisaie:

• There were portals like the one we used to get here, but those that worked only sent us to isolated isles.

G'raha Tia:

• Then as before, we must locate the embodiment of the emotion that bars the way.

Alisaie:

• What of yourselves? Did you find anyone to speak with?

Alphinaud:

• So the Omicrons seek to advance themselves through conquest...
• Following their victory over the dragons, they stand ready for the next campaign, but their leader has yet to issue new commands. And so they wait.

G'raha Tia:

• In such a place, who could it be that fits Urianger's description? A soul whose yearning for oblivion surpasses all others...

Alisaie:

• Urianger said this?

G'raha Tia:

• During our investigation, before we joined you in Elegeia.

Alisaie:

• So that's the way of it... Why couldn't he just say it to all of us?

Alphinaud:

• Given what we know of this place, it's certainly a curious state of affairs.
• While the dragons and the Ea longed for death, the Omicrons long for conflict. As much as that may lead to destruction, it must be considered a distinct desire.

G'raha Tia:

• In order to find the source of the dominant emotion, I believe we should seek out their leader. This “Sir.”
• According to M-032─the first Omicron with whom we spoke─there is a console by which we might communicate with it.
• M-032 also added that it would be a “pointless exercise,” but that in itself, I believe, is worth investigating. What say you?
