ZOLDAAD EMPIRE - JAKE'S THOUGHTS - MIREZ VALLEY OPENING
Jake: All right. Let's take a little breather, shall we?
Nichol: Yes. It doesn't appear that the empire's forces have caught out trail.
Jake: Say... Do you remember that orphanage we passed on the way here?
Rain: Sure, I remember it. The place we went after escaping from the train, right?
Jake: Most of the rebels, myself included, grew up in that orphanage.
Rain: (...)
Jake: Ever since Sozhe became emperor, Zoldaad has been starting war after war with its neighbors. We're the orphans of those wars. All of us here.
Rain: I didn't know...
Jake: So long as the Crystal existed, the empire's power could never weaken. And the blood would keep flowing, and there would be more and more orphans like us. Children of death.
Lasswell(...): So, you're asking us to forgive you for destroying the crystal?
Jake: No, I won't ask you to forgive me. But I am sorry that I misled you. I apologize for that. If you can't forgive what I did, then after we bring down the empire, you can punish me however you see fit. I will place my fate in your hands.
Lid: Argh, I hate that! When you apologize and get all serious, I feel like I'M the jerk if I stay mad at you. A dirty trick, I call it.
Jake: Let not spite wither your lovely petals, my tiger lily. Be honest with your feelings, Lid, and ask for my hand in marriage at long last.
Lid: You hand in--!? Where the hell did that come from! You are unbelievable! How did you disguise your ass as a face!?
Jake: Ah, sweet Lid. I understand how you feel. When I was just a boy, I too would tease and bully the girls I liked.
Lid(...): All right, you know what? I've been working on the repairs all this time. I wasn't gonna show it off yet, but... Looks like it's time for you debut.
Jake: Hm? What are you talking about, pumpkin?
Lid: Mechabo Mark 2.... Finish him.
(Mechabo pokes Jake!)
Jake: Gwaugh! What the hell is this thing!?
(Jake backs up and begins to run. Lid and Rain laugh.)
