Hey Hans. You're a bit late.

The goddess was just here a second ago.

After that, she got into some sort of quarrel with Seria, then they both took off ahead.

Ha ha ha. Those two, they sure have grown close, haven't they?

Let's help each other out so that we don't lose to them!

What truly pathetic beings you humans are.

Who's there?

There's no need to be scared.

My name is Mare.

I am a disciple of Zevalhua the Supreme.

A disciple of Zevalhua?

So you've come here to kill us?

How disrespectful of you to speak ill of Lord Zevalhua that way...

It's just another sign of your ignorance. How sad...

Still, do not misunderstand.

Putting an end to you two is not something I would need to bet my name on.

My goal is not you, Summoner, but the blue haired one. I'm after you.

I'm your target?

What do you want from me?

I thought I'd play the part of a god in exposing the truth to you.

The truth?

You've allowed yourself to be deceived by that fool Grahdens and now your life is in disarray.

Why you... What exactly are you up to?

You don't need to be wary.

It was your elders who gave you up to the custody of another so soon after finding you.

Yours was a sad upbringing, never knowing the warmth a parent's warmth.

That's why to you, who was taken in by those irresponsible old men...

...I, a god of compassion, will tell you the truth.

Stop messing around!

What could you know about Elder Grahdens!

As one of the Elder Summoners he was always so busy...

...But he always cared about me!

He's nothing like the person you're making him out to be, you disciple of a Fallen God!

You're just as clever with your words as Grahdens.

It seems you were well brainwashed.

Shut it! I won't let you say another word against him!

You're a clueless, foolish idiot.

I will show you the way.

I'll be waiting for you in the Azura Ruins just up ahead.

Come alone if you want to know the truth.

Hans, I owe everything to Elder Grahdens.

He might be a bit strange, but he's a trustworthy person and I care a great deal about him!

I can't forgive what she said about him.

I'm sorry, but you're going to have to go ahead without me.

I'm going to the Azura Ruins to confront her.

I'm leaving Zevalhua to you!

I beg you, Hans, please!
