The Elder’s Uncertainty

Conversation

: Elsior

Sion: Elsior.

Elsior: Oh, yes Sion. / Cleo, you're here too.

Cleo: We're back.

Elsior: I thought it'd take you longer.

Sion: Um... / We couldn't find the Night Herb.

Elsior: Hmm?? Did something happen?

Alice: Hello~ / I'm a new born fairy! / With a great heritage and a cute face!

Alice: Ta da~ I'm Alice~

Sion: We came across this fairy at Lost Forest, and we didn't know what to do so we just brought her here.

Elsior: Hmm.. A fairy... / I also do not know that much about fairies.

Sion: Really?

Elsior: Most stories of fairies have gotten lost or forgotten.

Cleo: Is a fairy that rare?

Elsior: No, that's not true. / Fairies themselves are not that rare.

Elsior: But they are very enclosed, so they do not reveal themselves.

Sion: So did she reveal herself because we met her when she was just born?

Elsior: What do you mean you met her when she was just born?? / This fairy looks all grown up??

Sion: All grown up? / You mean that's it?

Alice: How dare you call me that~? / You little~!!

Elsior: When fairies are born, they retain no shape.

Elsior: They take the shape of whatever nature they are surrounded by.

Elsior: Then they choose which shape to adopt, and even accept the language and culture of other creatures.

Elsior: But you both saw this fairy being born?

Sion: Yes. We actually went to Cursed Forest and saw a glowing tree near it.

Sion: And then Alice appeared from it. / She didn't know she was a fairy, and she seems as if she can't remember things properly.

Elsior: She didn't know she was a diary? / Hmmm...

Elsior: If what you guys are saying is true, I believe that something made her lose her memories or sealed them.

Cleo: Her memories are sealed?

Elsior: Yes. And is it Alice?

Alice: Yes~!! I am the cute perky Alice!!

Elsior: Alice.. Alice... / Is it related to her??

Sion: Her? / Who's her?

Elsior: Alice was a human who lived with us, like you.

Elsior: She was a part of our forest, and was called 'Time's Witch' by the humans.

Sion: So I'm not the first human to live amongst elves.

Sion: Humans call other humans that are part of the forest witches?

Elsior: She was exceptional at handling mana, more than other humans...

Elsior: She was different from others and the humans didn't accept her... / So she was called the Time's Witch...

Sion: I see...

Elsior: Hahaha. But this is a different story... / Anyways, she is a fairy of mother nature so take good care of her.

Sion: Yes, I will.

Elsior: But... A fairy has revealed herself.. / Something strange might have happened in the forest.

Sion: Something strange...

Cleo: Something strange?

Elsior: Something like this has happened before... / And then Satan woke up... Hmm...

Elsior: This won't do. / Wait a moment.

Elsior: Here. Take this.

Sion: What is this?

Elsior: This is a broken branch from the Spirit Tree.

Elsior: The numerous tree planted around the Tree of Life are the Spirit Trees.

Elsior: The Spirit Tree repels dark energy.

Sion: Oh..So that's why monsters can't enter the town

Elsior: Yes.. That's exactly right.

Elsior: If something is emitting dark energy, this branch will react to it.

Elsior: I'm not certain, but it'd be best to make sure.

Elsior: I'd appreciate it if your could go around the forests around the town. I believe the most dangerous place to be near the Battlefield Tomb...

Sion: Alright! / We'll be back soon!!

Elsior: Hahaha... Good boy... / Yes be careful.

Cleo: Sion! Be careful.

Sion: Okay! I'll be back~

Deor: Sion!!

Deor: Where are you rushing off to? / It's the festival soon. Shouldn't you rest for a bit?

Sion: The Elder sent me on an errand to go near the Battlefield Tomb.

Sion: I was just going to get some things..

Deor: What?? Wait... Something bad might happen if you go there alone.

Sion: He wants me to see if something's happening around the town.

Deor: Hmm... Then I'll have to go with you.

Deor: Let's go together / Ha. Since I'm better than ten of you.

Sion: ...Let's just go.
