MAGI NATION MYSIDIA -- THE MAGE OF HESS -- FINA'S PSYCHE FRONT LINES 1
(The party is walking along. Veritas of the Dark comes to a stop with a ! over his head. The others turn to look at him.)
Veritas of the Dark: I can feel it... The great hosts of Hess are approaching. Do they hope to bring down our base? And at the head of their forces... So, she dared come out herself... The Demon of Hess.
(Veritas of the Dark turns to the rest of the party.)
Veritas of the Dark: You all... Would you lend me your aid?
Rain: You want us... to help you?
Veritas of the Dark: I have been convinced by fighting alongside you till now. You are the blood of Aldore. I feel it in you. Especially you. Rain. I feel it most strongly in you.
Rain: Wha...
Veritas of the Dark: Yes, you, Rain. And that is not all. It's so curious, but... when I look at you, I...
(Two other Veritas approach. Lid gets ! over her head as she spots them.)
Lid: Yikes! The Veritas of the Light and of the Earth!
Veritas of the Light: So this is where you've been, Darklord. We were worried. You'd been gone so long.
(Earthlord turns to Lightlord.)
Veritas of the Earth: Ha ha! You worry too much, sis. The Darklord isn't the type of guy to fall that easily.
Veritas of the Light: D-don't call me that! I know better than anyone how strong the Darklord is. I don't need to hear it from you.
Lid(...): Huh... you know...
Nichol: They are rather different than the Earthlord and Lightlord we encountered in our time.
Jake: Well, I suppose 700 years might change a person.
Veritas of the Light: Oh? Are you all... with the Darklord? If you're friends with him, then you're friends to me. Let us battle Hess together. We will bring this war to an end at last.
Rain: R-right... Let's do that...
Veritas of the Dark: Lightlord. Earthlord. You two have the best timing. Stand with us, and we will strike back against the armies of Hess.
Veritas of the Light: The armies of Hess?
(Earthlord gets a ! over his head.)
veritas of the Earth: That presence... So she is here in the flesh, is she!
Veritas of the Dark: Comrades! Prepare yourselves! We must not let them take our base!
Veritas of the Light: I won't. My sister is still in that base. She's still too young too stand up to the demon's powers.
Veritas of the Earth: You always did have such a soft spot for her. Isn't that right, "sis"? But don't you worry about a thing. I will end that demon once and for all!
(THe Veritas move out, leaving our party behind.)
Jake: Well, look what we've gotten ourselves caught up in now. It seems we have no choice but to fight.
Nichol: Yes. I see little alternative.
(The others move on, leaving Rain behind.)
Rain: (This Demon of Hess that the Darklord is afraid of... Could she really be...?)

Rain: All right. That should be... the last of them.
Fina: You were able to defeat that many soldiers on your own, hm? I didn't know Aldore still had anyone like you left in its armies.
(The party gets ! over their heads, and turn as Dark Fina approaches.)
Rain: Fina!?
Fina: It looks like I might want to reduce Aldore's advantage before the final showdown.
(Fina readies her whip.)
Lid: Wh-what do we do? Are we really gonna fight Fina?
Jake: It seems almost blasphemous to strike a beautiful woman, but... I cannot allow my own gorgeous face to be vandalized either!
Nichol: There is no better alternative. This time we simply have to fight!
(Battle begins! Afterward...)
Fina: Impossible... I was.... defeated...?
Rain: Fina...
(Rain takes a step towards her.)
Fina: Don't come near me! I can't lose... I can't possibly lose here! If I lose, then Hess... Hess will be destroyed by Aldore... So even... even if it destroys me, I must...
(Veritas of the Earth walks through the party to stand before Fina.)
Veritas of the Earth: Fina. How weak you have grown. You let yourself be beaten by these nameless ruffians? I can hardly believe it of you.... But then... I suppose all things must come to an end. I will at least let you die by my own hand.
(Veritas of the Earth draws his weapon, but Rain rushes to stand between him and Fina.)
Rain: Wait!
Veritas of the Earth: You. Why do you interrupt me?
Rain: The Darklord said it, didn't he? Hess and Aldore were once one people... This isn't what you're here for! You shouldn't be killing one another!
Veritas of the Earth: ....That may be what the Darklord thinks.
Rain: Isn't there any way to resolve this other than war? Just because you believe in different things... That shouldn't mean you have to kill each other!
Veritas of the Earth: Enough! What would you know of our war? What would you know of any of this? You know nothing! Nothing of this battle, or how I feel for Fina! But if you would still stand in my way, then I will cut you down alongside her!
(Battle begins against the Earthlord! There is no dialogue after you defeat him.)

(Veritas of the Earth is crouched on the ground.)
Veritas of the Earth: Ugh! I did not expect you would prove such a challenge.... But my power is limitless! I will not fall to such primitive attacks!
(He stands and glows!)
Rain: Gah! He's still not giving up!?
Sakura: ((Rain! That's enough!))
Rain: Wha... Sakura?
Sakura: ((The situation has changed! You must return to your bodies now!))
(There is a flash of white light.)
