•Boy (?)

YOUR sword? This thing belonged to my father!



•Soldier [ ✖ ]

You'll have the *pant* lie better than that, kid. I bought that junky sword *pant* with my own drachmas!



•Boy (?) [ ✖ ]

Don't blame me for buying hot merchandise. You should be chasing the crook who sold it to you!



•Soldier

Oh, he's *pant* next on my list, right after I deal with you!

You're gonna pay me for making me run halfway across this island, girl!



•Soldier walks and unleashes his sword on his right hand



•Boy (?)

Girl? My name is Leucos! I'm a guy!



Wah! No need for violence!



•Soldier

You think I'm an idiot? If you're a guy, then I'm the legendary Heracles. Now hold still while I stab ya!



[!!]

•Leucos (boy) [""""]

Waaaaaah...

•Leucos

falls off cliff



## we'll see the boy with the blue person at the bottom of the cliff

Phew! Guess that's one way to ditch a pursuer.



kneels and talks to the dead blue soldier

Oh! I dragged you into this... Forgive me...

But this was your fate, and if there's one thing I learned from this immortal life, you can't argue with fate.



stands...

Don't blame me. Blame the gods.

Rest in peace, stranger.

•Leucos [ ! ]

[ !! ] runs towards source of disturbance.

You?!

But I left your dead body back there... [ ó ] (sweat drop)

[ ?! ] Could you be a zombie maybe? No way... [ ó ]

[ °°° ] I guess that soldier must've hauled you to the cliff and thrown you off.

But... why would he do that... ?

What a sicko!

*sigh* That's fate for ya. Sick or not, you can't argue with fate.



•Blue Soldier / You.

[ °°° ]

stands up.



•Leucos [ ! ]

walks half way around you.

Nasty!

Or maybe ... You immortal, by any chance?



//Question - answer (B) No (A) Yes



[[Results]]



(B) No



•Leucos

No, I saw you fall! You can't fool me!

My name is Leucos. Well met!

## moves towards you.



(A) Yes



I'm immortal just like you... In case you hadn't guessed.

So, what's your name? [ °°° ]

Did you forget?

Can't say I'm surprised. You did bash your skull pretty good back there.

Any idea where you came from? Or where you were going?

[ °°° ]


An immortal with amnesia? Boy, you must have really ticked off the gods.

I'm sure it'll all come back eventually.

In the meantime, how about we journey together?

I'm traveling around the world to find out the reason why I'm immortal...

You HAVE to come with me! I can't run into a fellow immortal and just walk on by.



Us meeting is fate, and you can't argue with fate. [ ˆˆˆˆ ]

Actually, this is the first time fate ever delivered something good.

I feel so thankful all of a sudden.

I've got it! Instead of thanking fate, I'll thank you instead.

Take this... ##hands over a sword.

It's my father's sword.

It's yours for now, but don't get too attached: I may want it back someday.

[ ˆˆˆˆ ]

Hey, how about a little gratitude?

It might look dull, but that sword has potential. Can't you feel it?

Bah! Guess I'll be doing all the talking on this road trip. Let's go.



// You and Leucos walks off and this ends the scene.

I've started to play this game when it first came out after a few days and I'm almost finished playing with it too. During my game play I searched around the net to find a walkthrough or so ... but failed. I have seen quite a few mini ones recently and thought... why not make my own? and see if it could also help others since as a game player myself - it is quite hard to continue playing a game once you get stuck. And so... I started to create my own guide / walkthrough for this game :)
