Dagas's musings[edit]
Dagas
...
Rex
Something up, Dagas?
Dagas
...
Rex
...Dagas?
Dagas
Do not address your King so lightly, serf.
I was merely indulging in a spot of...contemplation.

Rex
Sorry... It's just, you seemed to be a bit down in the dumps...
Dagas
Well. I suppose I should reward you for displaying devotion to your monarch.
As such, I will overlook your demeaning attitude this once.
As you know, I was once the ruler of a nation.
Where is my kingdom now? Whither my people? What has become of them?
These questions plague me most every day.
Yet tragic though it be, I possess no memories of that time.
As such, I have no way of knowing my one-time kingdom's fate.
And look at me now. Reduced to serving beneath a mere Driver.
What cruel twist of fate has turned monarch into servant?

Zeke
Dunno if we can help you with that one.
Nia
Yeah...it's just how Blades and Drivers work.
Mòrag
...
You may not have any memories, but perhaps there could be records left of this nation of yours?

Dagas
Aha! Dear Mòrag, you may have hit upon an excellent point.
Though I remember it not, it was a kingdom fitting for my personage.
Surely such a great land cannot have been forgotten from history entirely.
My retainers! You new task is to obtain records of my past great deeds!

Nia
Do records like that even exist...?
Zeke
If we are going to find them, I guess it'll be in history books or ancient texts.
Dagas
Precisely, my dear Zeke! You are a loyal retainer indeed.
"Kingly" Demeanor activates.
Dagas
Now, our goal is set!
Let us visit bookshops throughout the land, seek ancient records, and uncover the truth of my lost kingdom!
The quest is afoot!

Talk to Carchal[edit]
Carchal
Arrogant Behemoth?
You mean the big monster thing I saw that one time?
Looked like a pretty nasty piece of work, that one did.
Actually, it was so out there that nobody believes me when I tell 'em.

Carchal
It was early morning when I saw it. 5 o'clock or thereabouts.
Over on the hill near Triedge Isle, there was this crazy huge shadowy thing moving about.
Honestly, I thought I was seeing things too at first. Some kind of bad dream.
I've never heard of any monster reaching that kind of size.
At any rate, if you're gonna check it out, you should be careful.
I don't know if even a Titan battleship would be able to down that behemoth!

Fight for Your King[edit]
The party is standing atop the hill.
Nia
So, is this really the place?
Mythra
Well... From what the soldiers said, it should be around here somewhere...
Zeke
You really think a great demon's gonna show up in this deserted place?
Mythra
Don't act like this is my fault! How am I meant to know?
If there've been sightings, that means there has to be SOMETHING here, right?
If there've been sightings, that means there has to be SOMETHING here, right?
A spot of silence before a noise can be heard.
Rex
?!
Tora
Something appear!
It makes its way onto the coastside before roaring.
Mythra
Is that...the demon?
Rex
It's huge...
Zeke
Even for a demon, isn't that a bit too massive?
Tora
It incredible!
Dagas starts to make his way to the demon.
Rex
Dagas!
Mòrag
Hold on!
The demon roars once more before Dagas finally arrives in front of it.
Dagas
So, you are the foul demon?
You are insolent indeed to look down on my personage.

The party make their way to Dagas's side.
Dagas
But no matter.
Not all can be as versed in proper conduct as I. I will grant you an audience.

Mythra
Hold on - what are you, stupid? You're just gonna go face that thing?
Rex
Seriously - you'll be crushed to pieces!
Dagas
Do you hear my voice, demon?!
I am king of a land named Regideria!
I know you are the beast that caused my kingdom's downfall.
As King, I must avenge my people whom you wronged long ago!
If you are truly as terrible as the legends say...
Then show me the extent of your strength! Show me the power that felled a kingdom!

Nia
Quit provoking that thing already, Dagas!
Mythra
Actually, does that creature even understand human speech?
Dagas
Why so shy, demon? Do you not wish to do battle?
Dagas summons his Blade Weapon.
Dagas
Hmm... Then let's see how you like this!
Dagas attacks the demon.
Tora
Meh-meh! What Dagas doing?!
The demon stomps around and roars, enraged.
Dagas
Ahahahaha... So, demon. At last you recognize your foe.
Mythra
"At last you recognize your foe"?! You moron, Dagas!
Now you've gone and really made it mad!
Now you've gone and really made it mad!
Nia
Why would you provoke it?
Dagas
You ask strange questions, girl.
For what purpose did we come here if not to fell this foul beast?

Mythra
That's no reason to get it all worked up! Haven't you heard of careful strategy?!
Dagas
Dear me...
Can you truly be so afraid of a mere animal? And you call yourselves my retainers!
Can you truly be so afraid of a mere animal? And you call yourselves my retainers!
Mythra
That's not the issue here, moron!
Zeke
We've landed ourselves in a right pickle. What do we do now, Rex?
Rex
What now?
Tora
Best to retreat...
Then we find Ardainian Titan warship to help us take demon down!
Then we find Ardainian Titan warship to help us take demon down!
Dagas
Hopeless, every one of you.
Wait here awhile, retainers. I will slay the demon myself.
Wait here awhile, retainers. I will slay the demon myself.
Nia
You'll die, you know.
Dagas
I will not. Nay, I cannot. For the people of Regideria, I must prevail.
Rex
OK then. I'm convinced. Let's do this.
Mythra
You're really sure about this, Rex?
All right, then... I guess there's no point arguing with you.
Let's go slay that moron's demon.

Zealous Ambition[edit]
The Arrogant Behemoth is defeated.
Dagas
Demon or no, 'twas a mere beast. It could not hope to rival a king.
Mythra
We beat it...
Rex
Yeah. We actually beat it.
Zeke
I gotta say, I didn't think we'd actually do it.
Dagas
Honestly... Have you no pride?!
How could we fail to overcome such a trifling foe?
Frankly, you should be ashamed that you did not slay it more swiftly.

Rex
Uh, right...
Nia
I gotta say, though... You're pretty awesome when you go all out, Dagas.
Mòrag
Indeed. I knew you were hiding your full strength, but this was more than I had bargained for.
I'm glad we met you as an ally, not an enemy.
I'm glad we met you as an ally, not an enemy.
Dagas is looking at the horizon.
Rex
Are you still thinking about your lost kingdom?
Dagas
It is as you see.
For one so great as I, to slay such a foe is a simple task.
And yet... Though the beast lies defeated, the kingdom remains lost.
There is no way for us to be certain it was even the land I once ruled.

Rex
Dagas...
Zeke
Hey, don't be such a downer.
No point worrying about what's dead and gone. If you want a kingdom, you should make a new one!

Rex
Yeah, Zeke's right!
If you try your hardest, anything's possible!
If you try your hardest, anything's possible!
Dagas
Interesting... There is a certain wisdom in your counsel.
Now that my nemesis lies slain...
It is not fitting for a king to dwell forever on the past.
My path of conquest is far from over!
I am the man who will someday rule this entire world!
Hahahahahah! Hahahahahah! Hahahahahah!

Rex
Well, he certainly seems motivated now...
Tora
Dagas have energy, but still not quite in touch with reality.
Dagas
Hear this. You have yet to prove your might as retainers. Therefore, I will lend you my royal strength.
However, 'tis only for the sake of my righteous victory!
Never forget this, my subjects!
Hahahahahah! Hahahahahah! Hahahahahah!

Nia
It's great that he's getting into this, and all...
But his attitude still bugs me.

Mòrag
Don't be too harsh.
For all his words, I do believe he cares for us. Let's be happy for him.

Zeke
Sounds about right.
Being able to deal even with total nutters like him is the mark of a real Driver!

Nia
If you says so...
Dagas
Haha... Hahahahahah! Hahahahahahahahah!
Conclusion[edit]
Dagas
What ails you, my Driver? You look befuddled as a loon.
Is something troubling you?
Is something troubling you?
Rex
No... I'm just happy that you seem to have got your motivation back.
Nia
It's nothing. I'm just pleased that you're looking motivated now!
Mòrag
No...there is no trouble. I am just happy that you seem motivated now.
Zeke
No problems here. I'm just happy that you're looking good and motivated!
Dagas
Well, if my attitude pleases you, I trust you will work hard to serve my aims.
To protect a true and loyal retainer, I would gladly draw out the depths of my strength.

Rex
The depths of your strength, huh... Sounds pretty unbeatable.
Nia
The depths of your strength, eh? Guess we'll be pretty unbeatable.
Mòrag
The depths of your strength? I could not ask for a more dependable ally.
Zeke
The depths of your strength? Damn, those are pretty deep.
Dagas
Hahaha! Your king will not be easily defeated!
For the sake of restoring my kingdom I will spare no effort!

Dagas
Hahahahahah!
