In Need of Guidance

The crew has taken a request to investigate a mysterious town. Though seemingly normal at first glance, its inhabitants appear listless, unable to run even in the face of monsters.



Townsperson 1: ...
Nezahualpilli: This is the town the good shopkeep directed us to, is it not?
Vyrn: Yup! I gotta say, this place looks pretty normal if you ask me.
Lyria: But... It seems a little bleak, don't you think?
(Captain) and the crew have taken a request to save a town.
According to the stories, the entire town has been devoid of any modicum of liveliness after the appearance of a mysterious oracle.
Townsperson 2: ...
Vyrn: I mean, there are people out here, and everything seems to be in order... What are we even supposed to do?
Nezahualpilli: Perhaps it would be best to seek out the oracle as our mission requires.
Nezahualpilli: Excuse me! You there! Perhaps you might be able to assist us.
Townsperson 2: Who... Me?
Nezahualpilli: Indeed. We've heard tell of an oracle who resides here.
Monster: Groooar!
Vyrn: Yikes, where'd that monster come from! Get ready, (Captain)!
Townsperson 2: ...
Townsperson 3: ...
Lyria: What's wrong? Everyone, you need to get away from here!
Townsperson 1: ...
Vyrn: Hey! Did you not hear us or something?
Nezahualpilli: There's no doubt something strange is afoot...
Nezahualpilli: But first, we must do something about this monster! Let us take care of this posthaste, (Captain)!

In Need of Guidance: Scene 2

The oracle shares her doomsday prophecy with the crew, reminding Nezahualpilli of a similar prophecy passed down through his own family.



Vyrn: Hrm... I mean, they don't look hurt or anything.
Vyrn: Yo! Why didn't you run for cover? You could've gotten hurt, ya know!
Nezahualpilli: It's as you say, Vyrn—to be so unresponsive even in the face of monsters...
Nezahualpilli: How could you value your own life if you won't even raise a hand to defend it?
Townsperson 1: Life... Defend it, you say...
Nezahualpilli: Oh?
???: Oh, dear... Waste not your energy in vain.
Nezahualpilli: Hrm? And you are?
Townsperson 1: Praise the oracle...
Soothsayer: It would seem a few bad seeds have made their appearance, attempting to throw a wrench into the spokes of fate.
Vyrn: You're telling me this little lady here is the oracle?
Nezahualpilli: Ahaha! A reminder to never be fooled by one's appearance, no doubt!
Nezahualpilli: Pray tell, dear oracle. Whatever did you mean by wasting our energy in vain?
Nezahualpilli: And just what in blazes has happened to this town?
Soothsayer: It is all futile... That is to say, everything. Surrender yourself to fate and waste no further energy in fruitless struggle.
Soothsayer: I heard the voice of a great will—a voice that tells me this realm draws near to its final days.
Nezahualpilli: What?
Soothsayer: The only choice is to yield. To resist the great will is meaningless.
Lyria: Um... So what exactly does that mean?
Nezahualpilli: This realm's... final days?
Lyria: Nezahualpilli?
Nezahualpilli: There is a similar prophecy among the Clan of Feathers.
Nezahualpilli: It tells of the future close at hand, and the end of it all...
Vyrn: Say what! So the world's really gonna end?
Nezahualpilli: No... I believe not a whit of it.
Nezahualpilli: Yet the elders are resolute in their own belief in the prophecy—passing it down generation after generation.
Nezahualpilli: I thought I might dissuade them if I showed them what lies beyond our village.
Nezahualpilli: As such, I went in search of a power unknown by our people.
Soothsayer: Heh-heh... A wonderful prophecy, indeed.
Soothsayer: This realm shall end, and all will be without meaning...
Soothsayer: They have seen the truth, and surrendered themselves to accept fate as foretold.
Townsperson 1: The oracle has shown us...
Townsperson 2: Praise the oracle...
Vyrn: I see... That explains why they're all acting so weird.
Nezahualpilli: Does hope fail in all who hear this prophecy?
Nezahualpilli: Perhaps the same fate could befall my family...
Soothsayer: This realm has no place for those who would defy the prophecy.
Soothsayer: Dear guards... Kindly remove these meddlers from our town.
Guard: ...
Lyria: N-no, wait... Please! Um, we...
Vyrn: Geez... It doesn't look like they're the talkative type. You know the drill, (Captain)!

In Need of Guidance: Scene 3

Nezahualpilli remains unperturbed by the prophecy—no matter what calamity lies ahead, one should never lose hope. With this message, he brings the townspeople back to their senses from the oracle.



Guard: Ugh...
Nezahualpilli: Huff... Puff... I understand it must be difficult to exercise control in the face of something like this, but...
Vyrn: Hey! What's wrong with you guys? Come on, snap out of it!
Townsperson 1: ...
Townsperson 2: ...
Soothsayer: Hehe... It's all futile.
Vyrn: Grr... Come on! You heard Nezahualpilli!
Vyrn: There are other islands! Other nations, even! This town isn't all there is in this life! So come on...
Soothsayer: A hollow effort... This town is no exception to destiny...
Soothsayer: A power you could never comprehend—one immeasurable by this realm—awaits. The end looms near...
Townsperson 1: Listen here... Whatever we know, whatever we do—it's all meaningless.
Townsperson 2: Could you just leave us to face the end in peace? Please?
Lyria: No...
Townsperson 1: Yeah! If all you're here to do is cause trouble, you can get out!
It seems that the entire town now has their eyes set on (Captain)'s party with burning hostility.
Townsperson 1: Begone! Ye doubtful! Ye heretics!
Vyrn: What should we do, (Captain)?
  1. We can't give up here!
  2. Maybe we should just leave...


Choose: We can't give up here!

Lyria: R-right! This is too strange!
Go to "Continue 1"


Choose: Maybe we should just leave...

Lyria: B-but we can't just leave them like this!

Continue 1

Nezahualpilli: Indeed. Hey, you. You over there!
Townsperson 2: ...
Nezahualpilli: Is this truly what you wish for? To simply sit and await your destruction?
Townsperson 2: But what are we to do?
Townsperson 2: She has such incredible powers... The prophecy is surely inevitable.
Nezahualpilli: Is that so? Well, it may be true that the skies may meet its end through calamity someday.
Townsperson 2: Right! It's all pointless...
Nezahualpilli: But that is no reason to lose hope.
Townsperson 2: Huh?
Nezahualpilli: Excuse me, oracle!
Soothsayer: Yes? What is it?
Nezahualpilli: It's true that the end approaches, is it not?
Soothsayer: Yes, indeed... I have heard the voice of a great will saying so.
Nezahualpilli: Hah hah hah! Is that so? A truly incredible marvel!
Vyrn: Er... Nezahualpilli?
Nezahualpilli: Still, I wonder... Why would you surrender yourself?
Nezahualpilli: Do you not wish to live to the fullest in spite of it all? If so, why surrender?
Townsperson 1: ...
Nezahualpilli: What sort of doomsday awaits? Even I cannot say, but I wouldn't surrender until my very last breath.
Nezahualpilli: Should fire rain from above, seek refuge in the waters. Should the earth beneath you crumble, gather your families and take to the skies.
Nezahualpilli: If you hope to survive any calamity, you must prepare yourself to overcome it.
Nezahualpilli: Do not fade quietly into the night—not until the flame of your life itself has been extinguished!
Nezahualpilli: Make the choice to stand, and no catastrophe is insurmountable! Yield not to tragedy before it even shows its face!
Townsperson 1: You... you're right!
Townsperson 2: Nothing's even happened yet... Yet there's bound to be something we can do if it does!
Nezahualpilli's words awaken something within each person in town, gradually bringing the life back into their faces.
Soothsayer: Tch... You meddling scoundrels...
Nezahualpilli: Hah hah hah! I bear no ill will towards you, dear oracle!
Nezahualpilli: I believe your prophecy. I simply showed these fine people that they have a choice.
Soothsayer: And here I thought I'd taken the town with nary a peep...
Soothsayer: How dare you butt in!
Soothsayer: Take them!
Goblin: Kheee!
Townsperson 1: Hwaaah! What... The oracle!
Nezahualpilli: It seems she's shown us her true colors...
Vyrn: Did she just... turn into a monster?
Nezahualpilli: Hah hah hah! This makes things much easier, now that the enemy clearly lies before us!
Nezahualpilli: Come now, (Captain)! Let's show these imposters that they're welcome here no longer!

In Need of Guidance: Scene 4

Nezahualpilli learns that a mysterious power wasn't what he needed in order to become worthy of guiding his people, but the resolve to stand strong in the face of calamity and doom itself.



After taking care of the goblins, (Captain) and the crew witness as the liveliness returns to the town.
Townsperson 1: Dear skyfarers... How can we ever thank you?
Nezahualpilli: Hah hah hah! There, there! Do not concern yourself!
Nezahualpilli: I saw much of my own home in your town... It simply wouldn't have done to leave you in despair!
Nezahualpilli: Thanks to you, my eyes have opened as well.
Nezahualpilli: Power was not the answer... I now know what I should have sought.
Nezahualpilli: It was the resolve to guide my clan through any trials or tribulations.
Nezahualpilli: I will be the sort of king to ensure the wings of my clan remain forever resilient.
Nezahualpilli: Though it took a great deal of time, I can proudly return home with my head held high!
Lyria: Huh? But Nezahualpilli, you've barely even...
Nezahualpilli: Hah hah hah! Do not fret—I have no intention of ending my journey with you just yet.
Nezahualpilli: Even though I have found the answer I sought, my resolve is not yet what it should be.
Nezahualpilli: Most importantly, I need the strength to keep faith!
Nezahualpilli: If you would have me, I'd be honored to continue my journey with you.
Lyria's face lights up at his answer as the rest of the crew smiles in relief.
Nezahualpilli will continue his journey with (Captain)'s crew to become a king worthy of guiding his people to the very end.
