This is where we will be camping for the night.
So after we left Professor B's lab the next night, we continued walking around the Industrial District talking to people; for both idle chatter and for useful information. At the Outfitters Test Hanger we find Lin talking with some mechanics and technicians. Interested in the conversation we join it and once again are reminded of Lin's infatuation with machines and tech. We also converse about how quickly technology is advancing thanks to the many dire situations humanity has encountered along with the number of alien species we've allied ourselves with. While admitting to her desire to put all her efforts into the advancement and inventing of technology, Lin still is proud of the way she helps out with these advancements. Apparently, B.L.A.D.E and what they do are the biggest inspirations to these inventors. Lin ends the conversation by thanking Elma and I for being such supportive teammates and friends. Remembering about when I first meet Lin and Doug, I jest and add that Doug should also be thanked as he is basically her guinea pig for her research. She happily agrees saying that Doug is the most tough and reliable person she knows. Afterwards, we return to the Administration district to prepare for travel in Oblivia.
I just love this view of the ring with the mountains in the back.
In Oblivia, we do some hunting; to train and get stronger as well as to complete the basic mission, Axing Falsaxum where we have to defeat 6 lake falsaxums. Thanks to my Skell, we managed to complete the mission and return safely. In addition, one of the falsaxums dropped a Skell weapon that is a lot better than the weapon currently equipped. It was a type of scythe that had an art with the effect of a two-hit backslash. For those who wish to know, the weapon is called the E-Scythe; equipped to the right shoulder. Once completed, we went to Primordia to explore. On our travels, we ran into the tyrant, Elutanne, the Bloodthirsty for the first time, and beat it. During the battle, I accidentally fell off the cliff into the Silent Mire. Since I haven't been to the Rock Cavern in a while, once the battle ended, we explored the cave, now knowing that we can handle most of the enemies in the cave. Once content with our findings, we returned to NLA to take a rest.
Do you like my Skell?
Checking on the the Manon Ship, we find the Orpheans we saved a while ago on board, discussing some sort of topic. As we join, they talk to us about their agreement to assist us in the fight against the Ganglion in exchange for the survival of the Orphean species. From there, the discussion transitioned into talking about the concept of agreeing and disagreeing as the Orphe species are practically incapable of disagreeing with each other. We learn that every Orphe has something called the Ovah which is what gives the Orphe species a common will, like a hive mind, regardless of their individuality as living beings. Getting to the point, our client Sun'barac tells us that Sun'celeg has not returned and it's becoming a huge concern. Another Orphe rushes in reporting to Sun'barac that a Definian has infiltrated NLA looking like a human and kidnapped Sun'celeg. Accepting the request, we go out to the B.L.A.D.E. Tower in the Administrative District to look for info on Sun'celeg's kidnapping. We follow the trail to the East Gate where we learn that Sun'celeg was most likely taken to Oblivia. Reporting our findings to Sun'barac, we make a plan. Knowing that it's only going to be one Definian, I decide that our team will move on ahead to dispatch the kidnapper. We meet up with the Definian and fight. Sun'celeg then proceeds to thank us and reassure that by the agreement, we will kill any and all those who pose a threat to the Orphe to which I respond by saying that the specifics that Sun'celeg mentions are too brutal and immoral. He promptly disagrees, saying that there is no logic in letting the enemy live. With our guard down, the Definian suddenly gets up, says her last words and kills Sun'celeg before dying herself. Too late to help, the other Orphes come and watch as Sun'celeg dies. We then learn of the existence of senirapa water and that it is the last of their supplies. Sun'barac decides to use it so that they can gain Sun'celeg's knowledge. The use of the water suddenly gives birth to two more Orphes, Tan'celeg and Ten'celeg; Sun'celeg's offspring. Sun'barac explains that Orpheans have acheived reproduction through fission with the use of the senirapa water as a medium. We learn that during the fission, all knowledge from the parent gets passed down to the offspring. And finally, we complete the request and decide to spend the night there.
Just behind us is where Sun'celeg and the Definian died.
Thank you for reading and please! Tell me if you think the end result would have changed if we decided to go find Sun'celeg with the other Orphes and how do you think events would of changed? Do you agree with Sun'celeg's beliefs about the slaughtering of enemies? Also, this is the first time in a post where I added a picture of my Skell from the front. What do you think of the paint job I put? Isn't it fabulous. In my opinion, it's "pretty pretty"! On a last note, feel free to show off your Skell here in the comments. I want to see what Skell designs you came up with.
