After we talked with the B.L.A.D.E. Alex, we took a walk through and around the Commercial District. In one of the back alleys, we find Kirsty who was apparently waiting for us. She started off by talking about how quickly NLA was changing and improving, both in technology and in business thanks to these foreign aliens. She then goes on to explain the spike in miranium usage that resulted from these innovations. Kirsty's request, Planetary Pioneer (Part III), was for us to deliver 2,500 units of miranium to her, gather seven moleworms which will be used to help in the miranium creation process, and to find hidden data unit FN095. Once we accepted the request, we got back on track and started looking for our voltant clients, for our "Dubious Operation".
First, we picked up a defective fuel cell from the mechanic Graham in the commercial district. From him, we learn of a B.L.A.D.E. named Rosella who was oddly obsessed with the Zaruboggen. Appreciative of his concern, we take extra caution and look out for any odd B.L.A.D.E. activity. At the Administrative District hangers, we take Dr. Jeffery's hazardous waste. We conversed for a bit and he mentions his interest in seeing the devoltization process. On our way to the last client, we meet Arwae, a Manon who is confused with our day and night lifestyle and wants to learn more. Being a perfect opportunity, we invite Arwae to Alex's seminar. And then, we locate Pfeffen, receiving the toxic bomb he accidentally created. Pfeffen then mentions how someone named Roselle has come to him to ask if he would sell her the bomb. Preferring to follow the law and not endanger anyone, he refused.
Still, how do you "accidentally" create a bomb when you were looking for a way to reduce energy use?
Returning to the Commercial District, we meet with a distraught Dr. Jeffrey. As stated before, he was interested in the devoltization process and went to Shiraton, our client, to witness and study the method. Panicking, we successfully attempted to calm him down. Collecting his thoughts, he explains that a female B.L.A.D.E. member got in an argument with Shiraton and she kidnapped him. We prepared to set out after her who, according to the Doctor, left through the East Gate and went NE. By the cliffs on the east side of Primordia, we find Roselle, Shiraton, and a gigantic pile of toxic waste. It looked like she was making Shiraton devoltize it all, so we confronted her. She explained herself by saying that this will completely remove the factor of pollution and this is an environmental breakthrough. It is definitely a revolutionary idea/method and I actually agree with this plan. Where we disagreed was that she wished to profit from this and monopolize this method as hers. Without warning she attacks with her skell, "Gold Courage". In response, we fight back, wrecking her skell and causing her to surrender. With impeccable timing, Shiraton finished, finally noticed us. He then questioned us for attacking Roselle. Questioning him, he said that that pile of waste was a Zaruboggen's dream with all that voltant. He then states Roselle as his friend and ally. With this confession, Roselle bribed us to keep quite about all this. As you may guess, I refused and had her arrested. By this point, Roselle wished to turn herself in and take the consequences. She left humbly and we take Shiraton back to NLA. And that's the end of our "Dubious Operation".
All that garbage; no longer toxic in a matter of minutes...
Thank you and please! Tell me if you think we should move forward with Roselle's plan of having some Zaruboggen assigned to devoltize our pollution. I think that this can work under the control of B.L.A.D.E. and that Roselle could actually lead this project. Also, am I wrong is saying that most Zaruboggen are "airheads". They only seem to care about the present, and don't think to much about the past or future. Maybe it's just me.
Just around the corner, we have this view. (And then I jumped off the cliff)
