Sylvarant Base - After Tower of Salvation
????
You're finally awake.
Lloyd
Are you...the Renegades?
????
Correct. We're an underground resistance dedicated to fighting the Desians...or rather, the Cruxis.
Lloyd
So Cruxis and the Desians really are the same organization!
Botta
Correct. Cruxis controls the Church of Martel in the open and operates the Desians from behind the scenes.
The Desians are a subordinate organization within Cruxis.
????
The Church of Martel is nothing more than an instrument created by Cruxis to rule the world.
Those who call themselves angels are half-elves, who've evolved by using a special type of Exsphere called Cruxis Crystals.
They aren't gods or anything of the sort.
Of course, the Church of Martel and the Chosen know nothing about that.
Sheena
They're half-elves, too?!
Botta
Yes. Some of the Desians, as well as Cruxis and ourselves, are half-elves.
Lloyd
...What is Cruxis trying to do?
Are they doing all of this just to rule the world?
????
Do you intend to have us explain everything? How about using your own head a little.
Raine
Do they wish to revive the Goddess Martel?
They send oracles to those of the mana lineage and control their marriages to create Chosens who become the vessel.
It...seems meaninglessly drawn out and complicated.
Botta
Well, well, I am impressed.
????
There is another world beyond Sylvarant that competes for mana.
Lloyd
Tethe'alla.
????
Yes. And the one who created this twisted world was Cruxis leader, Yggdrasill.
Lloyd・Raine・Genis
Genis
Create a world? That's ridiculous! No one can do that!
????
It that's what you believe, then our conversation ends here.
Lloyd
...Wait. If Yggdeasill was the one that created the two worlds himself,
what can you possibly hope to do against someone like that?
And that's not all. You tried to kill Colette and me.
You're certainly not on our side. Yet for some reason, you saved us. Why?
????
...You're not as stupid as you seem.
Lloyd
Excuse me?!
Botta
...Our goal is to stop Martel's revival.
Therefore the Chosen, who would become her vessel was an obstacle.
????
Unfortunately, the Chosen completed the angel transformation.
The Chosen is now a lethal weapon whose only goal is self-preservation we wouldn't dare lay a hand on her.
But now we have the key to stop Martel's resurrection.
We no longer need the Chosen!
Lloyd
...What?!
????
What we need is you, Lloyd Irving!
Lloyd
...Me?! What's so special about me?
????
That's none of your concern! Got him!
《ロイドを掴まえようとする》
????
Ugh!
(Renegade)
Load Yuan!
Botta
No! It's his wound from Hima!
Yuan
Ugh, Kratos...How many times must you get in my way?!
Lloyd
Wound from Hima? Are you towing me the one who attacked Kratos was?...
Sheena
Lloyd! What are you doing?!
