Dialogue[edit]
Mellica
Ahh! Wh-who are you?!
Mellica
Oh, you're not one of the locals... Thank goodness.
My name is Mellica.
My mother was orphaned in the war, and she raised me here in Indol.
So although I'm Gormotti, I've never actually been to Gormott...
Lately there's something that's been bothering me... I feel like someone's spying on me all the time.
I was accepted into the Choir of Indol just recently, and I think that's when it started...

Mellica
Well, it's driving me a little crazy...
Mellica
If you would be so kind, might I ask you to help me identify the culprit?
Mellica
Y-you would? Really? Thank you so much!
Um...maybe you could start by asking around among the locals?
Just bring me up casually in conversation, and see if anyone knows anything.
I'm sure the culprit must be someone living in this city. Otherwise, I have no idea why they would...
I'll be waiting right here, so please let me know if you find anything.

Talk to the townspeople[edit]

Beqqa
What? You want to know about Mellica?
She joined the Choir of Indol recently, you know!
She was the only one in this whole camp who passed the audition.
It's really prestigious to be in the Choir. Only the very best singers are allowed to join!
When you're in the Choir, you get to sing at official ceremonies, like when they're moving the Titan and stuff.

Is that all you wanted? See you around, then!

You're not like that girl, are you?
I guess I can tell you, then.
There's this girl I've seen spying on Mellica a lot lately. There were some nasty-looking guys with her, too.
I tried to get closer and find ou what she was up to, but she gave me the slip.
Wish I could tell you more, but that's all I've got.

You're looking for info on that Choir girl Mellica?
Mmmm... Sorry, but I don't really know a lot about her.
Maybe you should try asking that Urayan girl, Albina.
She's a refugee, and she kept saying she was going to make it into the Choir no matter what.
But I haven't seen her around lately. Not sure what she's up to.
That's about all I know, I'm afraid.

Mellica? What about her? I don't know that much about those fancy Choir types.
Though I could tell you a bit about the Choir itself.
Apparently, once you join the Choir of Indol, you're basically set for life.
I mean, it's an official branch of the Praetorium, so naturally they get special treatment.
Us refugees don't get much in the way of opportunities, so lots of folks dream of joining up.
Course, I didn't make it past the audition. My mom and dad were so disappointed.
Anyway, that's about all the info I've got.

Report to Mellica[edit]
Mellica
So, um...how did your investigation go?
Mellica
So there was an Urayan girl in the refugee camp who was trying to get into the Choir just like me?
Albina... Albina...
I can't say I recognize the name.
But...
...
There was only one open spot at the last audition. I guess because I passed, she must have...
Albina... Albina...
I can't say I recognize the name.

Mellica
Um, could you come with me for a bit? I'd like to meet this Albina and talk to her in person.
Mellica
I-it'll be all right! I can handle it! As long as you're with me, I mean...
I want to talk this over properly! Come on, let's go!

Go and talk to Albina[edit]
Mellica
Um... Hello! A-are you Albina?
Albina
Mellica...?
The scene fades to black for a moment. When it fades in again, An Urayan Driver is now next to Albina.
Albina
I never thought you'd come to me on your own.
I was just wondering when the best time would be to go and take you out.

Mellica
T-take me...out...?
Y-you don't mean...you want to...k-kill...?
Y-you don't mean...you want to...k-kill...?
Albina
Huh? I thought you knew that already.
Isn't that why you hired these Drivers to protect you?

Mellica
N-no! These are just some kind people who offered to help...
I just wanted to come and talk to you!
I just wanted to come and talk to you!
Albina
What's to talk about?
If it weren't for you, I would've made it into the Choir.
I hate you so much, you witch. You pig. You dirty little... Urghhh!
If it weren't for you...if I could just get rid of you...I could have everything I deserve!
I could get out of this hellish life and live like a respectable person!
I could give my mom and dad the rest and comfort they need!

Mellica
But violence isn't going to solve any-
Albina
Oh, but it will! And it's going to change my life for the better!
I'm a refugee from Uraya, you know.
I know people in the mercenary biz. And once I kill you and join the Choir, I'll have the cash to pay them off!
Once I explained that, they were glad to help.
So I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to make all of you disappear!

H-help! Please!
Defeat the hired Driver[edit]
Albina
We...we lost...?
Mellica
...
Albina
What am I going to do now...? I...I have to join the Choir, or I can't...
I can't take any more of this life! If it weren't for you, I... I...
I can't take any more of this life! If it weren't for you, I... I...
Mellica
Albina... I don't know what kind of hardships you've been through.
But I don't think it's right to join the Choir in search of an easy life.
Do you think Praetor Amalthus would want people to sing at his sacred ceremonies for a reason like that?

Albina
What are you saying...? I'm the one in the wrong here...?
Oh, I get it. You think I'm just not good enough to make it in the Choir.
Oh, I get it. You think I'm just not good enough to make it in the Choir.
Mellica
Yes...that is what I think.
Albina
Just because you got lucky... You've got some nerve...
Mellica
I...I'm not trying to boast about my own skills! I just think...
Albina
Go on. Say it. Convince me, if you think you can.
Mellica
I...I don't think the Choir of Indol exists just to provide wealth to its own members!
I think the Choir exists to enrich the hearts of everyone who hears it, its own members included!
To join the Choir, you need to be able to wish for the happiness of others, and turn those feelings into song!
Those feelings are why the songs of the Choir resonate with the people!
You can't bring happiness to anyone by singing while thinking only of yourself!
That's why, um...I don't think... Oh, I don't know how to say this...

Albina
...Well, how am I meant to argue with a speech like that?
Dammit, Mellica. I'm...sorry.
Dammit, Mellica. I'm...sorry.
Mellica
N-no, I...I'm the one who should be sorry... It really wasn't my place to say all that...
Albina
You know the stupid thing? I love singing too. I really do.
So I guess...I'll try again. I'll sing for them again, and this time I'll get through to them.
Maybe that way I can get the best of both worlds. A happy life...and a happy heart.
You just wait, though. One day, I'll make everyone see that I'm a better singer than you!

Haha... I guess I should look forward to that, then...?
Mellica
Thank you so much for all your help, everyone.
Mellica
It was a lot scarier than I ever could have thought, but I'm glad I managed to make up with Albina in the end.
This is for you, as thanks. I hope you'll come and listen to us sing sometime.
