Transcript[edit]
- Estela arrives at the edge of Veridia Forest's oasis. A spire of energy can be seen in the distance.
Estela: Do you feel that? Someone's making a wish.
Your Relic: Zelpachad has found new prey.
Your Relic: Oh, how you've tried to avoid forming connections with the people here…things never go according to plan, do they?
Your Relic: Now you must meet them.
Estela: I have to find the victim…before it's too late.
- As Estela gets closer to the ritual site at the edge of the cliff, she sees a man speaking to spiraling energy.
Merlo: No, tell me, please…
Merlo: Yes, of course I would…
Mysterious Voice: Speak your wish into existence.
Merlo: I wish to find my daughter.
Mysterious Voice: And what would you be willing to give in return?
Merlo: Everything.
Estela: He's making a wish to the Ahamkara. I can still stop him!
- A bubble of energy encompasses the area around Merlo. Two portals appear and Cabal exit them, attacking Estela.
Your Relic: What other choices does he have?
Your Relic: He has exhausted all other options.
Your Relic: Those drowning in despair would reach for anything they think may pull them out.
- The portals close.
Estela: No, we're too late…! His wish has been realized.
- The bubble shatters, and the spiral of energy Merlo was speaking with transforms into a small girl holding a teddy bear. She floats in the air with an aura of purple energy emanating from her.
Merlo: Nora!
Nora: Daddy…where are you?
Merlo: I'm right here! Daddy's right here, Nora!
Nora: I-It's so cold… I'm scared…
Nora: I…I wanna go home…
Merlo: Don't be afraid, Nora. Daddy's gonna bring you home!
- Two wish runes appear as Merlo walks towards Nora as Nora floats back and over the edge of the cliff. Estela destroys one.[1]
Merlo: No! L-Let me go!
Merlo: What are you doing?!
- Estela destroys the second rune. The illusion of the little girl shatters and leaves behind a teddy bear.
Merlo: Nora…
Estela: That's… That's not your daughter.
Merlo: …
Merlo: If I die, would it grant my wish then? Would it bring her back?
Estela: No.
Estela: That creature you heard—it will never give what you desire. It will only take advantage of you.
Estela: Each wish will only bring you more pain.
Merlo: Then…where's my daughter? What should I do?!
- Estela picks up the teddy bear that was left behind. Nora's voice comes from it.
Nora: Dear Wish-Granter…can you make my wish come true?
Your Relic: Oh… Such a pure soul.
Your Relic: No gourmet would miss such a delicacy.
- Estela returns to Merlo with the teddy bear.
Estela: Was this your daughter's?
Merlo: Yes… I thought Nora too it with her… Where did that come from?
Merlo: It was her favorite doll, one she always kept with her. It was…a gift.
Merlo: A gift from… Who was it from? Why can't I remember?!
Estela: Do you know about a "Wish-Granter?"
Merlo: It's…a legend. If you find it, it's said to make your wish come true, no matter what it is.
Estela: Were you speaking with it just now?
Merlo: It…it promised to help me find her… Was it all a lie?
Estela: Did you know that your daughter was looking for the Wish-Granter too?
Merlo: Nora? But why would she…?
Merlo: You said it would only make us suffer. Did Nora…? No… No! H-How could this happen…?!
Merlo: Where on earth did she go?
Merlo: Can…can you help me find her?
Merlo: I don't have much to pay you with, but… I swear, I'll do anything…
Your Relic: So much sorrow. So much fear.
Your Relic: What fate awaits a child in a world such as this?
Estela: She was the prey Zelpachad chose, wasn't she?
Your Relic: Sometimes, hunters turn into prey without even realizing it.
- The teddy bear floats off to the side and hovers in the air.
Your Relic: Zelpachad did realize this man's wish.
Your Relic: He asked to find his daughter and was given a clue—this doll.
Your Relic: It will lead you to Nora, and she will lead you to your prey.
Nora: Daddy, I'm bored! I wanna go outside.
Nora: Oh, maybe we can go up the mountain and look at the stars!
Merlo: …I'm sorry, Nora. Daddy's tired.
Merlo: Why don't you ask Sahira to go with you?
- Estela exits Veridia. Just outside the town, she finds another sigil and illusion. Nora is speaking to her teddy bear.
Nora: Daddy's crying in his room again.
Nora: I wanna cheer him up, but when he sees me, he just looks even sadder.
Nora: …
Nora: I miss Mommy, Teddy. Do you miss her too?
- Estela finds the last sigil on Prism Lake. Nora is speaking to her teddy bear again.
Nora: Mommy, I miss you so much.
Nora: I hope you miss me too.
Nora: Daddy's been so sad lately. I know it's 'cause he misses you.
Nora: He always says you're still with us, even if we can't see you.
Nora: But Grandpa Torres said when people die, they're gone for good.
Nora: They can't feel or leave anything.
Nora: He must be right. That's why Daddy's so sad…
- The teddy bear begins to fly over the water with a swirl of energy around it.
Mysterious Voice: Nora…
Nora: M-Mommy? Is that you?
- Nora starts to walk on the water, following the bear.
Nora: Wh-Who are you? Where are you taking me?
Mysterious Voice: I'm simply kind-hearted, helping children in trouble…making their deepest desires reality.
Nora: It's you…! Everyone says you can make our wishes come true. Can you?
Wish-Granter: Of course, so long as your wish is sincere enough…strong enough.
- The bear turns into a portal.
Wish-Granter: Can you prove your resolve?
- Nora walks through the portal. Estela follows after her and comes out within the Sandbreaker Outpost. An Ahamkara's bone can be seen floating in the distance. Nora is lying face down on the ground in the middle of the outpost. As Estela gets close to her, another illusion plays out a scene of Nora talking with one of Zelpachad's bones.
Wish-Granter: Come here, o wisher mine.
Wish-Granter: Take my relic and speak your desire.
Nora: Dear Wish-Granter…
Nora: I wish Daddy would stop looking at Mommy's pictures and crying.
Nora: I don't wanna see him sad anymore.
Nora: Will you make my wish come true?
Wish-Granter: Of course, as you desire.
- The illusion fades, and Estela checks on Nora.
Estela: …Nora.
Your Relic: She lies on the cold ground, unconscious, unresponsive.
Estela (option): Check her vital signs.
Your Relic: How fortunate. She yet lives.
Your Relic: Her heart is still beating. Weak and slow, but beating.
Estela (option): Check her head.
Your Relic: Her eyes are closed tight, with Ahamkara magic flowing beneath her eyelids…
Your Relic: Every wish has its price.
Your Relic: She has seen hers. And even if she wakes, she will never escape it—a lightless world.
Your Relic: Ah, it pains you…
Your Relic: She reminds you of your past self—innocent, naive, ignorant.
Your Relic: The most delectable morsel the world has to offer…is a pure heart, bursting with desire.
Estela (option): Pick her up.
- Estela lifts Nora into her arms.
Estela: I can still save her.
Enemies[edit]
Note[edit]
- ^ If the player does not destroy the runes in time, Merlo will walk over the edge. The screen turns black, and the player returns to the start of the moment.
