FFBE Script part 83: The Increasing Chance of War

Previously....

ZOLDAAD EMPIRE - THE INCREASING CHANCE OF WAR - RAVEN'S HIDEAWAY

Jake: This is the Ravens' hideaway.

(Lasswell looks around.)

Lasswell: You have a rebel army base hidden beneath an orphanage?

Jake: And I'm revealing it to you because I'm ready to be straight with you. You are all very strong. You've proved that. So why not help us?

Lasswell: I thought this might be coming. I'm afraid we have our own battles to fight. Come on, Rain. The Fire Shrine is waiting.

(Lasswell turns and begins to leave.)

Jake: If it's the Fire Shrine you're looking for, you may be interested to know that it's now a weapons factory for Zoldaad's imperial army. They're using energy from the Fire Crystal to build their weapons.

Rain: They what?

Jake: Which brings me to another important point. Zoldaad plans to use the magitek weapons they make in that factory to wave war on Grandshelt. That is where you're from, right?

(Rain and Lasswell get a ! at this.)

Rain: War with Grandshelt!?

Jake: The intel that our rebel troops intercepted is quite clear on that. Grandshelt is rich in natural resources; Zoldaad wishes to have them.

Rain: Grandshelt Castle is still recovering from the attack from the Veritas of the Dark. It would be in real trouble if someone attacked it again now.

Lasswell: That is true...

Jake: So, what do you say? Want to go blow up a weapons factory with me?

Lid: What do you guys think? Should we really believe anything this weirdo says?

Lasswell: He speaks of a threat to Grandshelt. We have little choice but to take it seriously.

Jake: All right. That's settled, then. Whenever you're ready, we'll set out for the electric tower.

Lasswell: The electric tower?

Jake: There's a lot of work we have to do first, if we want to break into the weapons factory.
