Dialogue

*Konnan and The Professor have set up their machinery tools near Jaania's crystal in a Deadlands cave; you, your dragon, Xan, and Nirios are watching them nearby.*

The Professor: Yes, I believe we can do this.
The Professor: First we need to align the elements within the spell with their opposites...
The Professor: As I maintain the machinery to hold the alignment stable, a sufficient shock through the crystal should shatter it.
The Professor: At least, that is the hope.
Xan: You hope? What if this goes wrong and you shatter Jaania instead?
The Professor: Even if everything goes as planned, the spell will not release without resistance.
The Professor: But I swear to you, I will let the alignment fail before any harm could come to her.
Xan: If any harm comes to her, I'll burn you to ashes! HAHAHAHA!
The Professor: If I fail, we have no hope of stopping Wargoth. I would welcome your mercy.
Xan: HA!
The Professor: Apprentice, make sure the machinery doesn't overheat. Nirios, I'll need you to monitor Jaania's stability.
The Professor: If you notice any changes, let me know and we can try again.
Nirios: Understood.
The Professor: <Character>, help me with the alignment. I'll keep it stable once they're aligned, then you and Xan will shatter the crystal!

*You must play a match mini-game, where you match the elements with its opposite before the time runs out.*

Upon completing the mini-game:
  • Xan joins you as Guest A.

    The Professor: Xan! <Character>! Now!

  • Battle! - begins battle with Crystal.
  • Heal - fully replenishes HP, MP, and potions.
  • Run Away! - launches Leave Quest confirmation box; clicking 'Yes' will teleport player to Atrea.

    *After the battle, the crystal glows brightly, then shatters; Jaania falls to the ground, unconscious; you are surprised upon freeing Jaania.*

    <Character>: Did we— is she really—?
    Nirios: Mental and physical signs are stable. She's unconscious, but alive.
    Xan: Jaania...HAHAHAHAHA! I DID IT! WITHOUT WARLIC! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAaaa!
    The Professor: We'll need to take her back to Isiri. She needs to rest and recover before—
    Xan: HAHAHAHAHA!
    Xan: No. Now that she's free... She's coming with me!
    Konnan: Xan! We're not finished here!
    <Character>: You really want to try that, Xan? Against all of us?
    Xan: Finished? Haha... HAHAHAHAHA!
    Xan: What do I care about your struggle with Wargoth?! Now that I have Jaania, there's nothing else I could ever want!

    *As he got everything he wanted from freeing Jaania, Xan throws a fireball at you, your dragon, Konnan, Nirios, and The Professor.*

    The Professor: ENOUGH!

    *The Professor casts an ice trail to collide with Xan's fireball, stopping the attack; suddenly, Jaania opens her eyes for the first time in years, where she sees The Professor and Xan's spells at each other.*

    Jaania: S...stop... please...

    *Jaania sees The Professor and Xan, where the latter is very surprised by her first words in many years.*

    Jaania: Alex... Warlic... Enough...

    *Jaania then falls unconscious; The Professor looks at Jaania, before turning around to face Xan.*

    The Professor: Xan. Fight Wargoth with us. For Jaania's sake.
    The Professor: If Wargoth remains on Lore, the planet itself will be destroyed. Including her!
    Xan: ...

    *Realizing that The Professor is right, Xan decided to stop Wargoth as his flame is on skull returns.*

    Xan: HAHAHAHAHA! Then what are we waiting for?!

    *Suddenly, a sound shakes near the cave.*

    Konnan: What was that? Did Wargoth find us?
    <Character>: It came from outside. I'm going to investigate.

    *You and your dragon leave the scene as they investigate outside.*

    Xan: Well, I'm not leaving Jaania.
    Konnan: And I'm not leaving you here with my master.
    Nirios: ...It's a wonder anything gets done on this planet.

    *Nirios leaves the scene; scene fades to black.*

    Dialogue

    *In The Professor's hideout, you and The Professor talk to Xan where Jaania is.*

    The Professor: Do you even know where she is?
    Xan: The basement of the mage tower in Swordhaven.

    *Xan glares at The Professor.*

    The Professor: If we're going to defeat Wargoth we need her.
    The Professor: Have you... have you tried to release her before?
    Xan: HAH! I cast probably the most impressive ice spell in Lore... and then...
    Xan: ...then Warlic covered me in magic healing fire.
    <Character>: But... ice is weak to fire....
    Xan: HAHAHAHA, thanks Captain Obvious!
    Xan: And what is fire weak to? HAHAHAHAHA!

    *Xan glares at you and The Professor.*

    Xan: He cast the perfect spell so that I couldn't free her.
    <Character>: If it's an ice crystal... couldn't fire melt on its own?
    Xan: Can ice freeze my fire? Even the Ice Orb itself couldn't fully stop the burning in my skull, ahahahahHAHAHAAA.
    Xan: And my attempts at mastering ice magic as a human torch... were not successful, HAH!
    Xan: Her prison is more like mine than you know.... HAHAHA!
    The Professor: Do you mean... the ice that surrounds her... heals itself?
    Xan: HahahahaHA! The ice... and all the strains of other elements contained within it, HAHAHA!
    Xan: Do you know all the elements that a human body contains? That ice preserves.... while fire burns?
    Xan: HAHAHAHAHAHAAA!
    The Professor: That... that was brilliant. If you had succeeded... you would have trapped... trapped him forever.

    *Xan glares at The Professor.*

    Xan: If he hadn't shoved me into the fire realm, I could have freed Warlic if my spell had hit... who it intended....

    *The Professor walks as he finds the solution of freeing Jaania from her crystal.*

    The Professor: If we... if we align the elements properly then, we should be able to shatter the crystal....
    <Character>: But if it's all self-healing? Not even Warlic could figure out how to free her.

    *The Professor walks again.*

    The Professor: I... I'm still not sure if we can. We need to try though. It will take all three of us, though.
    The Professor: Will you come with us?
    Xan: I'll kill you if you try to stop me, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

    *You are now in Swordhaven's tower; you fight various monsters as you find the basement.*

    Upon entering the basement:
  • The Professor joins you as Guest A.

    *You, The Professor, and Xan enter the basement, where Jaania is here, trapped in a crystal; Xan glares at her and tries to touch her, but immediately draws back as the crystal retaliates with ice; he looks very sad.*

    The Professor: If we can align the elements with the opposites... I can then send a shock through the crystal that should shatter it... I hope.
    <Character>: You hope?
    The Professor: Avatars help us if, if it doesn't...

    *You must play a match mini-game, where you match the elements with its opposite before the time runs out.*

    Upon completing the mini-game:
  • Battle! - begins battle with Crystal.
  • Extreme Battle! - begins battle with Crystal.
  • Heal - fully replenishes HP, MP, and potions.
  • Run Away! - returns to Atrea.

    *After the battle, the crystal glows brightly, then shatters; Jaania falls to the ground, unconscious; scene fades to black.*
