Act 1: Girl in Blue - Chapter 18: Goodbye Forever - Episode 2
Vira suggests that Katalina returned to the empire by choice. (Captain) and the crew refuse to give up searching for her until they can talk to Katalina themselves. Vira offers to show them something that will shed light on Katalina's decision.
Vira: So Katalina's gone, you say...
Rackam: Yeah. And since you're friendly with the empire, we thought you might know what's going on.
Vira: Albion does provide the empire with quite a bit of manpower. I suppose you could say we have a strong relationship...
Vira: But as far as Katalina's disappearance, I'm afraid I have nothing to help you...
Io: No way! Are we supposed to pretend like nothing happened and let it go?
Vira: Look at it this way! Is it really so strange for Katalina to run off with imperial soldiers?
Vira: That is to say, she was once an imperial soldier too...
Vira: From my perspective as the Lord of Albion, it'd be in her best interest to return to the empire.
Lyria: But surely she would have told us...
Lyria: We just want to hear from her in her own words about why she'd leave.
Lyria: That's why we'd like to ask Katalina ourselves!
Vira: Even if you find the answer to be less than pleasing?
Lyria: Yes!
Vira: Very well. If you insist on knowing, then perhaps I can help clear things up.
Vira: There's something I'd like to show you. Please follow me.
Vira: Take caution though. It wouldn't do for you to fall prey to the monsters along the way!
Act 1: Girl in Blue - Chapter 18: Goodbye Forever - Episode 2: Scene 2
Vira tells the crew that the empire wants Luminiera, Albion's primal beast which requires sacrificing a knight to summon it. With the empire threatening to use Adversa against the island, Vira says Katalina volunteered herself to become the sacrifice in exchange for the safety of (Captain) and the crew.
Vira: Since ancient times, Albion has been home to a special primal beast by the name of Luminiera.
Vira: But invoking Luminiera requires a true knight... Or rather, the sacrifice of one.
Lyria: The sacrifice of a true knight?
Vira: The empire craves more power, so of course they took an interest in Luminiera. They requested our help in calling it forth.
Vira: I turned them down since we had no knights who were willing to volunteer their sacrifice...
Rosetta: So the empire went and found a willing volunteer themselves.
Vira: Indeed... The empire made an offer to Katalina: her sacrifice for your safety.
Vira: They explained the terms of the deal to me and requested my cooperation.
Vira: I refused, of course... Until the general brought out his new weapon.
Eugen: He's gone and done it now...
Eugen: We should've smashed that thing to pieces back in Auguste when we had the chance...
(Captain) and the crew gaze up at the imperial battleship floating lazily in the sky above them.
On the battleship is the Adversa weapon, the fruit of the empire's research on Auguste.
Vira: It has the power to destroy an entire island. And as it's my duty to protect the people of Albion, my hands were tied...
Lyria: So... Katalina's doing this for us?
Lyria: That's why she left. Without saying a word...
Rackam: I think I get where she's coming from... But talk about a show off!
Monster: Groooar!
Rackam: Monsters, eh? Sounds like a perfect opportunity to relieve a little stress!
