Background

In his past, Vaseraga was the captain of a successful crew of skyfarers. Excited at the prospect becoming a leading crew, Vaseraga accepted a job to eliminate a primal beast from an island. This decision turned out to be his life's biggest regret. The primal beast was revealed to be Lich whose poisonous mist rendered Vaseraga immobile. One by one, each crew member slowly dragged Vaseraga's body out of the Lich's lair. When one crew member perished due to poison, another took their place. They believed that as long as Vaseraga lived, the crew would live on and their dreams would stay alive.

The traumatic loss of his entire crew left once confident and ambitious captain with immense survivor's guilt. Desperate to escape his past, he joins the Society and later becomes the contractor of the Great Scythe Grynoth.

The Society assigns Vaseraga with Zeta to investigate the primal beast of Lognos Island. Their personalities clash at first, but they eventually learn to deeply trust each other over time.

He is notably fond of the Main Character and the Grandcypher crew since they remind him of happier times with his former crew. Due to his traumatic past, Vaseraga is extremely protective of his comrades particularly those that lack the combat ability to protect themselves, such as Lyria and Vyrn. If an ally dies or is in imminent danger, he goes into an near-uncontrollable berserker rage.

Happy Birthday Cutscenes
# Link Text
1

Oh, it's your birthday today, right? Happy birthday, Captain.
I prepared this for you, seeing as it's your special day and all.
Don't worry! It's not wine. It may look like it, but even a child could drink this.

2

Happy birthday to you, Captain.
The crew is growing as fast as you are. But I'll admit, I take joy in watching over you.
Heh... Never thought I'd say that, huh?

3

Today's your birthday, eh? Happy birthday, (Captain).
...
You've truly grown... As would be expected, having spent three years with you.
I pray that when this day comes next year, it finds you well. The time I spend considering how I can support you more is precious to me.
I think I've said too much... Why don't we head down to the feast? Everyone's waiting for you.

4

(Captain), happy birthday.
Much preparation went into today's dinner party.
I did what I could with the decorations.
I imagine it to be a great feeling to have everyone pin their hopes and expectations on you.
But the pressure to perform is surely equally great.
Whenever it becomes too much, you can count on me... Or rather, any one of us in the crew.
We're always watching you. I hope you never forget that.
Off to the party then. Everyone awaits your presence.

5

Happy birthday, (Captain). This makes the fifth time we've celebrated your birthday together.
You've added many allies to your crew in that time.
It's true that each new crew member adds to your responsibilities as captain.
But I think you've performed your role admirably, and never let them down.
I'm glad I've had the chance to watch you grow, and to celebrate these important occasions with you.
I'll be here to celebrate it next year and the year after. I'm looking forward to the birthday when we can actually lift a glass together.

Happy New Year Cutscenes
# Link Text
1

Oh, it's you, (Captain). The new year has begun! I was looking forward to seeing the first dawn, so I stayed on the deck.
I hope that I can see it again next year right beside you.

2

Why are you up, (Captain)? The sun's not yet up.
Me? I was having a bit to drink and decided to get some fresh air. Then I thought I'd stay and watch the sunrise.
Ah, there were a few of us still up and chatting. Did we wake you?
I suppose we got a little carried away. My apologies. We were having fun, but didn't mean to cause a ruckus.
It reminded me of old times... Good times. Maybe one day you can join us when you're older!

3

Back again, eh, (Captain)?
Well, we seem to run into each other here every year. So I had a feeling I'd see you, and I was right!
I guess you could say I just enjoy talking with you about our crew and the journey ahead of us. So before I knew it, my feet had led me here...
This year's a bit chilly though... You be sure to keep warm. You're our one and only captain after all.

4

You wish to engage in a game of badminton? Are you serious, (Captain)?
As you may already know, I'm not exactly the most festive type... With that in mind, do you still want to play against me?
Yes, you say... Heh, ever the curious one, (Captain).
You're on. I haven't had a mission from the Society for a while. Was afraid my muscles might be atrophying.
What's that? You're gonna color my face with crayons if you win?
Hm, the stakes are on. This is a battle I cannot afford to lose.

5

The first shrine visit of the year... Heh. I know you, (Captain). I can guess what the steadfast captain of the Grandcypher wished for.
"The good health of the crew, and safe passage all the way to our destination." Well? I'm not wrong, am I?
I can't remember when I started, but I've found myself praying for the same thing.
Maybe when I realized just how many old losses I was recovering as I traveled with you.
Hah. The new year's barely started and I'm running off at the mouth already.
All I should have said was happy New Year, (Captain).

Valentine's Day Cutscenes
# Link Text
1

Hm? You're here to give me chocolates? Ah, for Valentine's Day...
That's mighty kind of you to give gifts to all the crew members.
You've really gone all out for Valentine's Day, (Captain).
I've seen you running all over the airship since this morning. Take it easy and I'll be on watch for today.

2

Is that chocolate... for me?
I see...
Thank you, (Captain). I'll be sure to savor each bite.
Did you get up early to prepare for Valentine's Day?
If so, then take the day off to rest. I'll take care of your duties in your stead.
Leave it to me! You know I used to be in a crew before this one. And handling business with the Knickknack Shack is my forte.

3

Another gift for me this year? Thank you, (Captain).
Your gift brings cheer to a man who went through a tough scrape...
You might not be aware of it yourself, but beyond your strength to fight is the strength to help your crew stand tall.
I suppose that's not saying too much this time...

4

Chocolate for me this year too? Thank you, (Captain).
How fortunate I must be for this to feel so natural.
For our give-and-take relationship to continue...
And the fact that you're all still by my side. I couldn't ask for more.
I should be grateful for what you do for me, (Captain).
I will try to be more upfront with myself, so that I can express my gratitude properly.

5

That's quite the stack of boxes you're carrying,(Captain). Can you even see where you're going?
Handing out chocolate to show the crew you appreciate them, eh? You really are a considerate captain.
What? They're all for me?
Wait... These are all different kinds of sweets. Did you make all of them?
...
You did all this because you don't know what I like?
Pff... Just when I think I have you figured out,(Captain).
Thank you. I'll savor each bite.

White Day Cutscenes
# Link Text
1

I'll go ahead and give this to you... since it's White Day and all. I apologize that it's not handmade...
I went into town to find something suitable to give you, (Captain), but it took a while to decide. Giving gifts is arduous...

2

(Captain), do you have a minute?
Yep. It's your White Day gift.
I tried to think of a handmade gift, the way you did, (Captain). But I'm afraid I'm no good at those kinds of things.
So instead I went and bought something that's sure to please.
The item is pretty popular, and there was quite a line. So I ended up coming back pretty late. My apologies...

3

There you are, (Captain). I want to give you this. Go on and take it.
Hm... You're staring at me pretty hard... What's wrong? I'm definitely the one who bought it...
The wrapping is so cute that you want to know which store it came from? I see... You're concerned about me and the shopping trip.
The store was just as you'd imagine. It looked like something out of a fairy tale. It was hard for me to step foot inside...
The store clerks froze when they saw me too. But the place is so popular for gifts, I didn't know where else to go.
Humph... I only did it for you, (Captain). Now go ahead and take it.

4

(Captain)... So today's White Day, huh.
I had to buy these ready-made, but I did prepare them just for you. Will you accept?
Hm? You saw me making something in the kitchen?
So you were watching... It's true, I did try my hand at this confectionary thing, but it didn't turn out too well.
Hm? You wish to taste the ones I made myself? I can't guarantee the taste though.
Well, if it'll satiate your curiosity...
I left them in my room. Come with me.

5

Here, (Captain). This is for you.
It's handmade. Last year you told me you preferred that, remember?
So I asked Vyrn and Lyria what you liked.
I think I chose the right recipe... but I can't vouch for the taste.
There's a card too. I wanted to share my opinions of all the sweets you made me last month, and say thank you.
Which did I like best? The chocolate chip cookies, I think. They struck the perfect balance of bitter and sweet.
I wanted to return your consideration in kind, but... Well, I hope you like it, at any rate.

Trick or Treat Cutscenes

1

Captain, what is the custom for Halloween?
I see many people wearing some very strange outfits... Though perhaps I'm not one to talk.

2

So you want candy, eh?
Then say it! Say the words! Trick or treat!
Just kidding. Don't be scared, (Captain).

3

What sort of tricks are our crew members up to this year, (Captain)?
Allow me to help. Only if it isn't dangerous, of course.
Now then, tell me the plan. I'll go and procure all the items we'll need.
Humph. I too have a playful side, you know. Now let's put this plan into action!

4

(Captain)? Sorry, I don't have any candy left.
Truth is I was surrounded by children in every direction out there...
Intrigued by my outfit, they came at me in droves.
They followed me everywhere I went. Every piece of candy I had in my bag was gone by the time I returned.
Although exhausting... It certainly wasn't an entirely awful time that I had.
(Captain)... You have candy for me too?
I most graciously accept...

5

Happy Halloween, (Captain). That's what I'm supposed to say today, right?
Choose: Trick or treat!
Ah... I thought it might come to this.
Here I am, clearly empty-handed. How could you pass up such a perfect opportunity?
However...
Vaseraga spins in place, cloak whipping out behind him. In his hands is a neatly-wrapped package.
I had it stowed in my cloak. A warrior should never be caught unprepared. I'm wise to the ways of the Grandcypher by now.
They're pumpkin cookies from a shop Zeta likes. Here. They're yours.

Happy Holidays Cutscenes
# Link Text
1

My old crew used to celebrate the holidays too.
This? It's the wine we'll be having at the holiday feast.
It's Erune-made so it's very good stuff. Will you be having any, (Captain)? Ah, you're not of age yet...

2

With all these crew members, the holiday feast feels much more lively.
At times like this, don't you sense how far we've come as a crew? I know I do.
Now let's get a seat, (Captain). You don't want to miss out on a feast as grand as this!

3

The holidays are here... It's that time of year again...
We're all exchanging gifts this year again, aren't we? I've already got my gift ready.
It's rare to see me at a holiday party, you say? I suppose I like to show my face every now and then...
For every person that finds a place in your heart, they become just one more push to give you strength to survive. That's all there is to it.

4

What's wrong, (Captain)? Not enjoying the feast?
Hm? You followed me out here?
Sorry if I made you worry. Had to clear my mind.
When I served as captain of my own crew, I loved partying with the rest of 'em.
Just as you do now, (Captain).
Recalling the good old days gets me a bit sentimental.
Perhaps I've said too much.
Hm? Where are you dragging me?
What? You want me to bust a few moves with you at the party?
I suppose I could do that.
Being an antisocial bore on this day in particular would be a waste indeed.
Let us return to the party and bust a groove or two, (Captain).

5

The town certainly is boisterous tonight. Crowds everywhere you look. Seems like a lot of preparation goes into that holiday feast.
Don't worry, though. I'll carry your bags. That's why you brought me along, right?
What? You want my help choosing decorations for the tree?
That's more a job for Zeta, don't you think? I don't know what the tree will look like with me helping.
But this is a special night... I'll be glad to accompany you if that's what you really want.
I don't have any experience with decoration, but I can probably make myself useful when it comes to negotiating prices.

Grieving Scythe

When Vaseraga loses his scythe to Grynoth's transformation, he has Almeida forge him a new one. She delivers the weapon herself, and—sensing the gravity of his predicament—begs him to come home alive.



Vaseraga hunts primal beasts to sate the appetite of his great scythe, Grynoth.
Although Grynoth's power is massive, it takes its toll on Vaseraga. It has even caused him to lose consciousness on several occasions.
He has always suspected that there was more to Grynoth than being a simple weapon. This suspicion was confirmed during his fight against an automagod called Arianensa.
It was then that Grynoth assumed its true form as another automagod before Vaseraga's very eyes.
The sheer force of this transformation marred Vaseraga with grave wounds and robbed him of his weapon.
The Society, who had originally provided Vaseraga with the great scythe, blamed him for the loss of his armament. After a swift admonishment from the brass, he and Zeta were assigned to retrieve Grynoth.
Zeta: Ah, man. Grynoth is gone, and I'm stuck with this tracking device on my wrist. This sucks.
Vaseraga: Sorry...
Zeta: What? Hold up! Is this Vaseraga I'm talking to?
Vaseraga: I didn't mean to get you involved in this. I'll recover it alone.
Zeta: H-hey! Where do you think you're going!
Zeta: I can't believe he just apologized to me like that...
Zeta: Is he really okay?
Vaseraga: I want to place an order for a weapon. The necessary materials and the requested artisan are written here on this document.
Sierokarte: A great scythe?
Vaseraga: Yes. As you're aware, this is a Society matter, which complicates things. Therefore I'd like to proceed in secret... At least as much as possible.
Sierokarte: I'm sure it's more complicated for you than for me. I'll go ahead and put your order in, since I know you're in a hurry.
Sierokarte: Almeeeida! I've got an order for you! Time to light up your forge!
Almeida: An order for me? Okay, no problem. What am I making?
Almeida not in crew

Almeida is both the trusted foreman of the mines in Valtz and a skilled weaponsmith.
She was once saved by Vaseraga, who wielded Grynoth to defend her from monsters down in the iron mines.
Ever since that day, Almeida has made it her life's mission to produce a weapon equal in quality to that impressive great scythe.
Almeida is a crew member

Unable to find Almeida aboard the Grandcypher, Vaseraga has come to Sierokarte.
He knew the merchant would be able to contact the weaponsmith, no matter her current whereabouts.
Almeida: They want a great scythe? And these specifications just go on and on...
Almeida: Wait. Siero. Don't tell me—is this for Vaseraga?
Sierokarte: Ummm... Well, don't go spreading it around, but yes. He's the client.
Almeida: N-no kidding? He wants me to forge him something to replace Grynoth?
Almeida: I better get to it!
Almeida: V-V-Vaseraga! I'm here to deliver your weapon!
Vaseraga: ...!
Vaseraga: Almeida, why did you come here? I thought I told Siero to keep this order a secret.
Almeida: You wanted to put an order in with me, because I vowed to make a weapon like Grynoth, right?
Almeida: It made me feel like I just had to bring you this weapon myself...
Almeida: I present to you: Great Scythe Alsarav!
Vaseraga: Hmm...
Almeida: How d'ya like it? Does it feel good in your hands?
Vaseraga: It does. You did well. Hard to believe you finished it in such a short time.
Almeida: I rushed it for sure... But, Vaseraga, what in the skies happened to you?
Almeida: You're one of the strongest people I know. For you to lose Grynoth... You must've been up against a crazy opponent.
Almeida: Couldn't leave you without a weapon, so I made this one in a jiff.
Vaseraga: You're right about that. I was in a bit of a bind without one. Thanks.
Almeida: I should thank you, Vaserav! You've saved my bacon more than a time or two!
Almeida: And you showed me Grynoth. Been trying to make something like it ever since.
Almeida: Not to mention you chose me to help you with your problem...
Vaseraga: That I did...
Almeida: I... I oughta thank you more. I'll sharpen your scythe and adjust the grip.
Almeida: So, please... No matter what you're up against... Just come back... And show me your face again...
Vaseraga: ...
Vaseraga: Why are you crying?
Almeida: Crying? Who's crying!
Vaseraga: Ah. I see what's happening. You shouldn't shed any tears on my account.
Almeida: How could you say something like that, Vaseraga! Do you even care about yourself...
Sierokarte: He really doesn't seem like himself, huh?
Almeida: ...
Vaseraga rushes away in an attempt to escape Almeida's gaze.
Vaseraga: (I'm not worthy of those tears...)
Vaseraga: (I...)
Arianensa: ...!
Lester: Aaah!
Vaseraga: (I couldn't even protect the rookie!)
All the memories of losing allies flood into his mind until he can focus on nothing but his own torment.
He walks on, unsure if he'll ever know peace again.

Lamenting Comrades

Vaseraga allows Grynoth to take over his mind, which sends the Draph into a hallucinatory recreation of his tragic past. Grynoth uses this opportunity to assume complete control over Vaseraga's body.



The crew is struggling against the weapon-turned-god Grynoth. But even with Vaseraga's strength, it proves to be too strong.
When the smoke clears, the crew discovers that Vyrn has been taken.
In order to get him back, they land on Moon Sliver, the stronghold of their enemies.
They find themselves locked into battle, when Neutronon—a sinister ally of the Foe—makes a proposition to Vaseraga.
Vyrn: Urgh... Argh!
Neutronon: Your augmented body provided fodder for Grynoth while you were wielding it.
Neutronon: We will exchange this little dragon's freedom for your form.
Neutronon: Do we have a deal? The choice is yours.
Vaseraga: Fine. Release Vyrn first. Then you can do with me as you like.
Neutronon: Wonderful.
Vyrn: Cough! Cough!
Neutronon: Go ahead. Take Grynoth in your hand.
Vaseraga: Vyrn. Eustace is nearby with the others. Take this path and meet up with them.
Vyrn: O-okay, but what are you going to do, Spiky?
Vaseraga: Don't worry about me. Go.
Vyrn: I'll bring backup real quick, so just hang in there!
Vaseraga: ...
Its blade buried in the ground, Vaseraga grips Grynoth's shaft.
Vaseraga: ...!
Zeta: Vaseraga's this way?
Vyrn: Yeah, just ahead!
Vaseraga: ...
Zeta: Vaseraga!
Vaseraga: Graaah!
Zeta: It's completely controlling him! All he can do is fight!
Grynoth begins consuming Vaseraga, causing the man to experience a series of unwelcome flashbacks.
Vaseraga: This is...
Crew Member 1: Captain Vaseraga!
Vaseraga: ...!
Familiar voices call Vaseraga's name.
Vaseraga: You... Why are you all...
None of the old faces seem to realize Vaseraga is there. Instead they're all focused on a different figure.
Vaseraga: What is it?
Addressing the crew is another Vaseraga.
Vaseraga: (This is a memory of that day...)
Crew Member 2: I heard our next job is gonna be a preeetty big one.
Vaseraga: You bet. Bigger than you can imagine. In fact, our next opponent's the toughest one yet.
Vaseraga: A primal beast.
Crew Member 1: Ahaha! Hell yes!
Vaseraga: We've grown into the leading crew—known across this whole island.
Vaseraga: A primal beast will be a mere warm-up for us. Am I wrong?
Crew Member 2: Nope. As long as we have you at the helm, Captain, there's nothing to fear!
Vaseraga: (Wait! Don't go through with it!)
The men go about their preparations, heedless to Vaseraga's cry.
Vaseraga: We're leaving, crew! Lift off!
Crew Members: Yeaaah!
Vaseraga: (Don't go! Turn around! There's still time!)
Vaseraga: ...!
In the next instant, he is transported back to a day he had hoped to never relive.
Vaseraga: Pant... Pant... Crew... Get out of here—now!
Crew Member 1: Cough, cough! Captain Vaseraga, we're not going to leave you here!
Crew Member 2: It's coming! It's going to attack again!
──……!
Primal Beast: ...
Crew Member 2: Ur-urgh! Forget about me—save the captain!
Vaseraga: No! Don't challenge the primal again! I was the one who decided to face it. I'll be the one to go down with it!
Crew Member 1: As long as you're out there, Captain, then our crew will continue. You'll keep our dreams alive...
Crew Member 1: Gasp!
Vaseraga: No, stop! Just stop!
Crew Member 3: Let's do this! Protect the captain!
Crew Members: Aaaah!
Vaseraga: (The rest of the crew... They sacrificed themselves one by one until no one's left standing...)
Vaseraga: (This was...)
Vaseraga: (This is all my fault...)
Crew Member 1: Captain Vaseraga, if you hadn't signed us up for this, you think we would've survived?
Vaseraga: Of course. My pride brought your deaths.
Crew Member 2: We gave everything we had to protect you. There was no greater honor.
Crew Member 1: But, at the last moment, I knew I didn't really want to die...
Vaseraga: ...
Vaseraga: I'm sorry, crew...
Vaseraga: You didn't deserve this!
???: Vaseraga, are these people the only ones you should be apologizing to?
Vaseraga: Rookie...
Society Rookie: It's your fault I'm dead too, is it not?
Society Rookie: You said it yourself...
Vaseraga's consciousness slips away as resentful voices echo inside his head.
Vaseraga: Getting upset over something would only make me repeat my mistakes.
Vaseraga: I've decided to live my life for them, and I need to stay true to that decision.
Vaseraga: That's right... Those were awfully big words I said back then... But turns out I couldn't live up to them.
Vaseraga: I couldn't protect them... I can't protect anything!
???: You're right. You can't protect a thing. You continue to repeat your errors.
Vaseraga: Are you Grynoth?
Grynoth: You thought to abandon yourself to save your friends.
Grynoth: But that was all for naught.
Grynoth: No. I should say you never intended to protect anyone.
Vaseraga: Stop...
Grynoth: After all, the one who led those skyfarers to their fate and the one who watched as that young man was attacked... was you.
Vaseraga: You're wrong... That's not what I wanted at all!
Grynoth: There is no point in avoiding the truth. You've already accepted the blame.
Vaseraga: ...!
Grynoth: You had your sense of pain removed to escape from that suffering. And then you made yourself into a living shield.
Grynoth: But you can't run from the past. You murdered your crew and watched as your comrade died.
Crew Member 1: Captain Vaseraga...
Society Rookie: Vaseraga...
Vaseraga: ...!
Grynoth: There is only one way to escape your pain and atone for your sins.
Grynoth: Release your will. Give everything to me.
The shadowy figure bears down on Vaseraga. All of the man's deceased allies follow suit.
Vaseraga: ...!
He draws his weapon. But as the familiar faces begin to creep closer to him, his hands begin to tremble.

Lamenting Comrades: Scene 2

Zeta senses that Vaseraga has let Grynoth manipulate his mind and body. She comes at the Draph with a full assault to snap him out of the automagod's spell.



Vaseraga: Guh... Argh!
Grynoth: Modifying your body to run away from the sensation of pain. How weak.
Grynoth: To escape the final agony—one no man should be able to elude—you decided to sacrifice yourself.
Grynoth: You who have vowed to protect your allies... You couldn't even do that.
Vaseraga: ...
Grynoth: You hate how impotent you are, don't you? You've been running from yourself for so long.
Grynoth: I shall free you from the pain, from your past—from all that torments you. Now, abandon your body and will.
Vaseraga: ...
Grynoth: This must be a relief. Yes. It is exactly the end you wanted.
Vaseraga: G'ungh!
Vaseraga: This...
Vaseraga: This is how it has to be...
Vaseraga: ...
Zeta: Haaa!
Vaseraga: ...!
Zeta: The hell are you doing! You really wanna give up everything to Grynoth?
Vyrn: Yeah, Spiky! You hear us in there, right?
Vaseraga: ...!
  1. Vaseraga!

Choose: Vaseraga!
Zeta, (Captain), and Vyrn are confronting a rampaging Vaseraga. They yell at him with all their might, trying to summon his mind back to reality.
Vaseraga: Raaah!
But their efforts seem to be in vain.
The hulking man continues his onslaught with a vigor none of them have ever seen before.
Zeta: Damn it! What do we do!
Vaseraga: This...
Zeta: ...!
Vaseraga: This is how it has to be...
Zeta: Vaseraga's stopped moving!
Vyrn: What did Spiky just say! What does he mean?
Vaseraga: ...
Vaseraga's body convulses, and his head raises.
Zeta: You!
Vyrn: What just happened? Something about him changed...
Zeta: There's no telling what... But I don't sense a trace of Vaseraga in there anymore!
Zeta: And what did he mean by this is how it has to be? Did he want to work alone so he could end up as some kind of armor-wearing vegetable?
Vaseraga: ...
Zeta: That's it! I'm pissed! I am so going to chew him out!
Vyrn: But it doesn't look like talking to him is doing much good...
Zeta: You've got that right. That's why before we spit anymore crap at him...
Zeta: I'm going to rattle that dumb brain inside his helmet!
Vaseraga: ...

Lamenting Comrades: Scene 3

Zeta is able to draw out Vaseraga's consciousness with her Spear of Arvess, causing Automagod Grynoth to take a new form. Vaseraga and Zeta then team up to take it out.



Zeta: Take this!
Vaseraga: ...!
Vyrn: Maybe you should take it a little easier!
Vyrn: Hey! You do anymore to him, and he'll be a goner!
Zeta: Spear of Arvess! Give form to my faith and become a piercing fang!
Zeta: Yaaah!
Zeta pins down the catatonic Vaseraga with her spear.
Zeta: (Vaseraga... Snap out of it!)
She firms her grip on her weapon, closes her eyes, and says a silent prayer.
Zeta: Vaseraga!
Vaseraga: ...
Zeta: You can hear me, can't you! Say something already!
Vaseraga: Ze...ta...
???: A weapon the same as me... Arvess has intervened with his mind.
Zeta: Vaseraga. I don't know what you're suffering from, and it's not my place to ask...
Zeta: But you can't just keep it all inside and expect to die! Not while I'm around!
Zeta: Whatever's going on, we'll do something about it! Just trust us!
Zeta: Remember what you told (Captain)!
Vaseraga: What I... told (Captain)?
Vaseraga: That little dragon and that girl with the blue hair... What would you do if you had to abandon one of them?
Zeta: Back then you said you'd protect whoever (Captain) couldn't! This is the same!
Vaseraga: The same?
Zeta: We're your partners!
Zeta: We'll figure out what to do! So don't you dare lock yourself up and throw away the key like this! You dumb oaf!
Vaseraga: ...
Vaseraga: Partners... Allies...
???: Baffling. Your thoughts were so clearly stacked toward self-annihilation, but mere words have brought you back.
???: Inconceivable, considering the only thing you've ever desired is to disappear.
Vaseraga: Hm. Maybe Zeta knocked one of my screws loose with that beating.
Vaseraga: That... Or here at this final hour I've finally learned what the word partner means.
???: I realize you won't see it my way. I've determined there are too many errors in this body. Switching to forced shutdown mode.
Vaseraga: You're right. It is baffling—it's something I've forgotten this whole time.
Vaseraga: But I've finally remembered. Every ally I've ever had was a softhearted fool... But not one of them abandoned me.
Vaseraga: My partner used Arvess to make a path to reach me. That's how tenacious she is.
Zeta: Humph. Bout time you realized. You could've asked for help a lot sooner.
???: More errors found. Increasing forced shutdown intensity.
Grynoth: ...
Zeta: Looks like it wants a fight. Guess it couldn't beat Vaseraga.
Vaseraga: Glad you have so much confidence in me.
Zeta: Yeah, as long as you start letting us help you. You feeling better?
Vaseraga: Yes. Thanks to you.
Zeta: Then we're all gravy. Now then, let's get that thing out of your body.
Vaseraga: Got it.

Lamenting Comrades: Scene 4

Thanks to Zeta's unyielding resolve, Vaseraga has learned the true value of camaraderie. He boards the Grandcypher with a newfound trust in his fellow skyfarers.



Vaseraga: Aaargh!
Zeta: Haaah!
Grynoth: Why! Did you not seek destruction? Why have you reverted!
Grynoth: Gaaah!
As the specter of Grynoth begins to fade, so too does the surrounding scenery. Soon Vaseraga and Zeta find themselves in a completely different dreamscape.
Zeta: Huh... Wait a minute... Vaseraga, is this your memory?
Zeta: Sorry... Feels weird peeping at it...
Vaseraga: It's fine. The past is the past. I never wanted to talk about it with anyone, but I don't mean to hide it either.
Zeta: ...
Zeta stares at the dizzying display. Accompanying the unbelievable sights is the scent of blood.
She comes to the realization that maybe it's from the wounds she inflicted on Vaseraga.
Vaseraga: I should thank Grynoth.
Zeta: What?
Vaseraga: I couldn't forgive myself for the deaths of my crew. In a way, Grynoth showed me that all I've been doing is wallowing in self-persecution.
Vaseraga: All I've ever thought about was settling the past, just so I could escape the guilt.
Vaseraga: But seeing them all once again... Thanks to Grynoth's illusions, it felt like I was able to see them all properly buried.
Zeta: Um. I see... So I guess you're all good then?
Vaseraga: We'll see. I'll never be able to run away from their memory.
Vaseraga: That's why they'll always be with me wherever I go. I've finally come to terms with that.
Zeta: That's good. But I think you're forgetting who really saved your bacon.
Vaseraga: Ah. You're right. You deserve thanks along with (Captain) and the crew. And I'll have to go and thank the one who forged this great scythe too.
Zeta: All right then.
Zeta: If you ever start to feel this way again, you better say something sooner. Got it?
Vaseraga: Got it. But I think I'm okay now.
Vaseraga: If there's something I can't bear alone, then I'll take that as a signal I should be relying on someone else for a little support.
Zeta: And just how are you going to get that support?
Vaseraga: Having any one of you around me is more than enough.
Having awakened from their vision, Vaseraga and Zeta go on to fight a fierce battle with the enemy's vanguard.
But the opposing forces prove to be no match for their combined teamwork.
After all is said and done, they stand victoriously beside (Captain) and the crew.
Almeida: Whew... Vaseraga, good to see you back safe and sound from the battle.
Vaseraga: I'm still alive because of this fine weapon you've forged.
Vaseraga: I've come in person to express my gratitude.
Almeida: Ah... Hah... Ahahaha... It embarrasses me when you say that to my face...
Vaseraga: Then I won't overstay my welcome. I'll head back to the airship soon.
Vaseraga: I'm looking forward to using your services in the future. When that time comes, I know I can count on you.
Almeida: Yeah, you've got it!
Almeida: Hehe. Vaseraga, I can tell you're a little different than before.
Vaseraga: Do you think so?
Almeida: Yep. You actually talk to me about stuff now!
Almeida: It's like you've gotten a little softer or something.
Vaseraga: I see.
Almeida: Well, see you around!
Vaseraga: Definitely. Thanks again.
Vaseraga: (There's no doubting it.)
Vaseraga: (I've come to understand my weakness and fully trust my allies.)
Vaseraga: (Perhaps this is the power that I should have been looking for the whole time.)
The confrontation with Grynoth has given Vaseraga the ability to face both his past and his true self.
Reaffirmed that his fellow crew members will never abandon him, he confidently steps aboard the Grandcypher.
