Scenario:Seox - Encountering the Eternals II

Encountering the Eternals II

When the crew notices a strange man watching them, Sierokarte explains that he is Seox, a member of the Eternals. Seox expresses great interest in the Six-Ruin Fist.

---

At the Knickknack Shack, Sierokarte assists the crew with preparations to awaken the Six-Ruin Fist.

Vyrn: Phew... It's taking us ages just to awaken this thing!

???: ...

Vyrn: Hey, hey... Knickknack... What's with that guy in the cloak and mask staring at us?

Sierokarte: Oh, him? He's Seox, a member of the Eternals.

Vyrn: The Eternals?

Sierokarte: That's right! I know he wears a strange mask, but he's not such a bad guy.

Vyrn: He seems crazy suspicious if you ask me... Who are these Eternals anyway?

Sierokarte: They're a legendary crew of ten warriors!

Sierokarte: It's said that each of them matches even the Seven Luminary Knights in strength. They're feared even by the bravest of skyfarers.

Vyrn: Wow... I never would've taken Masked Wonder for someone of such epic proportions!

Seox: The title of Eternal means nothing to me.

Vyrn: Yikes! Did he hear all that?

Seox: Tell me, skyfarers... Is that weapon you carry the Six-Ruin Fist?

Lyria: Um... What do you know about the Six-Ruin Fist?

Vyrn: Sorry, but this weapon's super–duper rare! There's no way we're letting go of it!

Seox: I care not for its scarcity.

Seox: What's drawn my curiosity is the fact that you've come so close to awakening a revenant weapon.

Lyria: Um, do you mean to say this is a revenant weapon?

Seox: Heheh... So you've come this far without even realizing what it truly is.

Seox: Ah, this brings back memories of that man.

Vyrn: Huh? That man?

Seox: Listen up, skyfarers. I've taken it upon myself to see if you are truly fit to wield that revenant weapon.

Sierokarte: Say, didn't I tell you to keep your mask off in the shop, Seox?

Seox: Huh?

Sierokarte: Remove it, or good ol' Siero here will pluck it off for you.

Seox: Don't push it, shopkeep... Last time you caught me off guard, but—

Sierokarte: Eeyah!

Seox: Aieee! S... s-stop it...

Seox: ...!

Vyrn: W-what was that all about?

What does this encounter with Seox of the Eternals mean for (Captain)?

Is he truly interested in testing (Captain)'s compatibility with the Six-Ruin Fist, or does he harbor ulterior motives?
