OLDERION FEDERATION - THE BEAUTIFULLY FILTHY - LAKE DORR OPENING

Luka: The waters are too unclean... I no longer have any choice...


???: Heh heh heh. Is it really going to be this easy? My goodness. Well...not goodness I suppose. Cunning? Let's go with cunning.

(A Veritas appears in the lake, emerging from a whirlpool of water!)

Luka: What!?

???: I mean, of course I thought there was a small chance you'd turn up if I dirtied the waters a bit, or I wouldn't have done it. But I didn't really expect you'd be so gullible, Water Priestess.

(The Veritas summons two monsters. They begin to approach Luka.)

???: Listen: apologies in advance... I mean, after the fact would be pointless, wouldn't it? But I am going to have to kill you. I've got to breal the seal on the Water Shrine, you see.

(The monsters approach ever closer.)

???: I am Veritas of the Waters. But fear not, child. I will not harm your face. Die in peacce, knowing that your corpse will be - ah! - heartbreakingly beautiful.

(Nichol walks up behind Luka.)

Nichol: My, my. What a pathetically obvious plan.

(Veritas of the Waters gvets a ! over her head.)

(Rain and Lasswell approach from either side of the lake.)

Rain: Seriously! What a bumpkin. And if she was planning too ambush her, why not strike while she had the element of surprise?

(Veritas of the Waters looks back and forth between Rain and Lasswell.)

Veritas of the Waters: You... you ambushed my ambush? Hqave you no decency!?

Lasswell: Well, if that isn't the pot asting aspersions on the kettle.

Veritas of the Waters: Oh, fine, fine. I had planned to utterly destroy you all sooner or later anyway. Please excuse me while I take care of these children first.

(Veritas of the Waters rushes off screen. The scene ends.)

OLDERION FEDERATION - THE BEAUTIFULLY FILTHY - LAKE DORR 1

(Rain and Lasswell have their weapons drawn, the others behind them. They face Veritas of the Waters who hovers in the lake.)

Veritas of the Waters: Urgh... Well, I'm glad I didn't wear my best coat today....

Rain: Surrender, fiend, for there is no h0ope of escape. We have you cornered.

Veritas of the Waters: Ha ha ha, cornered? Cornered like the pointy corners of a helmet... worn by a genius of strategy! By which I mean my helmet!

(Veritas of the Waters floats to the side. A shadow is seen swimming under the surface of the lake.)

Nichol: This... this cannot be....

Veritas of the Waters: Ah, how good of you to notice at last. Yes, it's all too true. This is the one who has been defiling your precious waters!

(A splash, and something surfaces in the lake!)

Rain: Leviathan!?

Lasswell: Impossible! Leviathan is being controlled by this blackguard Veritas!?

Fina: Wait! Look there! Something black is oozing from its neck... is that... blood?

Rain: So it was Leviathan's blood that was polluting the water?

Fina: The poor creature... isn't there something we can do for it?

Veritas of the Waters: What a sweet child you are. But I'm afraid not, dear. It is not a wound that will easily heal.

(Veritas of the Waters holds something up, which begins to glow red.)

Nichol: That... is the sacred vessel of Paladia! You cannpt mean that you harmed it using such a thing?

Veritas of the Waters: How well-informed you are about holy relics! I'll bet you're popular with the ladies. But I'm afraid that the time for questions has passed.

(Rain and Lasswell draw their weapons again.)

Veritas of the Waters: Come... Leviathan! Let us bring this to an end!

(Bqattle begins against Leviathan!

Nichol: Impossible, how could this happen. The water god... As a warden of the water, I did not want to fight you.

(You defeat Leviathan! There is no dialogue afterwards.)

OLDERION FEDERATION - THE BEAUTIFULLY FILTHY - LAKE DORR ENDING

(The party lies on the ground, Veritas of the Waters stands in front of Leviathn, her sword drawn. Luka rushes up.)

Luka: We beg thy forbearance, O god of the waters. Hear our words, we beseech thee!

Veritas of the Waters: Heh heh, your pleas are useless. This ebast can hear no voice but mine now.

Luka:(...)

(Luka begins to glow, bubbles of water surrounding her.)

Veritas of the Waters: What is the meaning of this? What.. what nonsense!

(Veritas of the WAters summons a ball of water and hurls it at Luka! Fina stands and rushes forward. Fina puts up a protective barrier over her and Luka.)

Nichol: Luka... she is trying to directly reach the water god's heart with her prayers...

Fina: Ngh...

Rain: Fina...Can you really keep that up?

Fina: I-I an! I'm always getting protected by you, Rain... This time, I'm going to protect Luka!

(Leviathan begins to back up.)

Lid: Hey, look! Lookslike the sea beast is clocking off for the day!

LAsswell: Perhaps Luka's prayers did reach it after all...

Veritas of the Waters: Ridiculous! You shall die!

(Veritas of the Waters summons a second ball of water! She hurls it at Fina. The protective barrier is broken. Fina and Luka collapse on the ground with the others.)

Veritas of the Waters; Your devout prattle is no more than farts in the wind, next to the power of the sacred vessel!

(Veritas of the Waters flaots to the side again, giving Leviathan a clear path to the party.)

Veritas of the Waters: Now finish them off! Leviathan!

(Leviathan attacks Veritas of the Waters with a splash of water!)

Veritas of the Waters: What is the meaning of this! Attack THEM, not me, you tentacle-headed lummox!

(Another flash, another water attack on Veritas of the Waters from Leviathan!)

Veritas of the Waters: Oh, for the love of...!

(Veritas of the Waters disappears. Leviathn is no longer tinged black, but returns to its healthy blue color. The party stands.)

Rain: Luka, your voice reached Leviathan after all...

Luka: But my work is not finished. I must heal the water god's wounds and purify the waters.

Fina: Luka... Do we have to say good-bye already?

(Rqain gets a ! over his head as Luka nods.)

Rain: Good-bye? Why wpuld this be goodbye?

Luka: I must commend myself to the eaters. I will let myself sink to the bottom of the lake, and there I shall remain until my work is complete and the waters are fully pure once more.

Lid: You're gonna purify the water? how long is that supposed to take?

Luka: I cannot say. But I suppose it will take many years.

Lid: Y-years...

Luka: Be not troubled, Lid. I ahve long been prepared to do my duty.

Lid: Nichol! Did you know about this?

Nichol: Of course. The only one who can purify the defiled water is Luka.

Lid: Wh...what do you mean, "of course"? I can't believe you! Don't you even care? She's your sister, for crying out loud! Is this where you trot out that garbage about choosing a hundred lives over a single life, and use that as an excuse to sacrifice your own sister!?

Fina: Lid! I'm sure this is painful for Nichol as well. At least try to understand him.

Lid: Fina...

Lid(!): Nichol... Are you... crying?

Nichol: Crying? What a fanciful idea. We were all splashed with water during the battle with LEviathan. Of course there is some moisture on my face.

Fina: Luka, you told me... that you would give up all that you were... for one special person. Back then, I couldn't understand what you meant.... it was completely unimaginable to me. But now... I think I understand a bit better. Wanting to use your power for the sake of someone important... Wanting to help that person... and keep that person safe.... I know how that feels.

Luka: Fina...


(Luka clasps her hands and glows. Water bubbles surround her, then transfer to Fina.)

Fina: This light...?

Luka: I have imparted to you a measure of my own power. It should be enough to allow you to undo the barrier surrounding the Water Shrine.

(Luka floats out onto the lake.)

Luka: Pray do not look so sad. I shall not die in the lake. Once the water has been made pure, I will come back. When I reach the bottom of the lake, I will begin my work. You should be abole to see the purifying light even form here on the surface. When you see that light... think of me, aned know that i am alive. If I know that you all are thinking of me... If I know that you still remember me... Then I will not be alone.

Rain(...): In that case, then... you can count on us. When we see your light... we will always remember you, Luka. I swear to you on my knighthood.

Luka: Thank you....
