It seems we've finally made it to the Great Tree of Life.
Hans, it looks like you survived your trek here.
Lugina
You could call that a miracle, considering it's you we're talking about.
Oh, so you were here too?
Lin
You are a Summoner working for the Imperial Guard, aren't you?
Lin
Your name is............
Paris
It's a pleasure, Logistics Support.
Lugina
If someone from the Imperial Guard is here...
Lugina
...then it's all true. The empire is also after the treasure.
Paris
...... That is none of your concern.
Lugina
Hans! You're not planning on joining this lady...
Lugina
...and betraying the Summoners' Hall, are you?!
Lin
H-How absurd! Of course not!
Lin
Hans is not that type of person, you know!
Lugina
How do you expect me to trust some lady from Logistics Support when she's wandering around a place as dangerous as this one?!
Paris
Still as uncouth as always, I see.
Lugina
And what gives with this place anyway?!
Lugina
That dumb treasure's nowhere to be found!
Lugina
Imperial Guard lady.
Lugina
Unfortunately, it looks like you were duped too, huh?
Lin
S-Somehow it feels like the mood has completely changed...
Lin
Hans...what should we do?
Lin
Wh-What is happening?! What is this light?!
Lin
Your bodies are...glowing?!
Lin
...the power of the stone fragment?!
Paris
They're...resonating?!
Lin
Wait a minute. Do you two also have a fragment similar to the one Hans found?
Paris
Combining the pieces together makes the stone whole again...?!
Lugina
It looks like these stones were all originally one to begin with.
Lin
Yes, the fragments are reacting to the Great Tree!
Mysterious Voice
Traveler who has found the hidden treasure. Take that power and face your last challenge.
Paris
That mysterious voice... Who is speaking?
Lugina
It looks like that ugly thing is the "last challenge" that sorcerer prepared for us.
Lin
You should all cooperate and fight together.
Lin
Paris, Lugina, you're both willing to help, right?
Lugina
Tsch, I've got no choice, I guess.
Lugina
But you two fall back and stay outta my way!
