Ragunna Holiday
Outside Ragunna City, you run into Phoebe, who's on vacation. After the Carnevale, she decides to go on a pilgrimage to restore her peace of mind. Eager to show you Ragunna's wonders, she invites you to travel with her. Will this journey lead you to the answers you seek?
Quest List
Phoebe:
Greetings, Rover. What a pleasant surprise to see you here.
Phoebe:
It feels like it's been so long since we last crossed paths at the Carnevale.
Phoebe:
Though belated, congratulations on receiving the Laurel. Your performance that day... was truly unforgettable.
Phoebe:
Thanks to your splendid performance, the Carnevale, which hadn't been held for a decade, came to a perfect conclusion. Ragunna is now filled with joy and laughter.
Phoebe:
With such joyous songs echoing throughout the city... Surely even the Sentinel can hear them.
Phoebe:
Speaking of the Carnevale's conclusion, as the Laureate, what do you plan to do now?
Phoebe:
That sounds lovely. By the way, I'm on vacation and planning to visit some sacred sites myself.
Phoebe:
If you're interested, would you like to join me?
Phoebe:
Of course, I'll do my best to be a good guide.
Phoebe:
Well then, {Male=Signor;Female=Signorina} Rover, please look this way.
Phoebe:
Cross this bridge, and we'll arrive at Thessaleo Fells.
Phoebe:
There you'll see rolling highlands and coastal plains, along with grand architectural marvels built by the ancient nobility in partnership with the Order.
Phoebe:
How about we make that our first destination?
Phoebe:
Look over there! Just ahead is the famed Thorncrown Rises, built by the old nobility.
Phoebe:
It was originally constructed to honor the oracle that guided people through storms, symbolizing the Ragunnesi's reverence for the sea.
Phoebe:
After many years, the old nobility, led by the Fisalia family, eventually left Thessaleo Fells.
Phoebe:
The great Thorncrown Rises, once a proud emblem of the Fisalia family, was then abandoned, much like their fading glory.
Phoebe:
To this day, it remains a testament to a bygone greatness.
Phoebe:
Indeed, they were involved in the Carnevale incident, and there are still many unanswered questions... I wonder how they view the Sentinel?
Phoebe:
I remember Gilberto mentioning something about...
Phoebe:
No, that can't be right... Oh, I'm sorry for rambling. Please, forget I said anything.
Phoebe:
So, now that we're here, what do you think of Thessaleo Fells?
Phoebe:
I'm glad you enjoy it here.
Phoebe:
By the way, I've noticed you've been staring at something for a while...
Phoebe:
It's behind me?
Phoebe:
Oh my... Wh-what are those? Are they dangerous Tacet Discords that need purification? How did I not sense anything...
Phoebe:
No... Don't come any closer.
Phoebe:
C-calm down, Phoebe. Breathe. The greater the danger, the more we must hold on to the Sentinel's wisdom.
Phoebe:
Oh? Really... I suppose the wisps don't appear hostile...
Phoebe:
Rover, do you know what these are?
Phoebe:
Penitent's End? I've never set foot there.
Phoebe:
Ever since I met you, it feels like I've encountered so many unfamiliar things.
Phoebe:
By the way, do you happen to have a recording Echo or a camera? I'd love to capture this moment to study further.
Phoebe:
Rover, are you alright? What are Tacet Discords doing here...
Phoebe:
Were they drawn by the wisps too? Usually, there shouldn't be so many around this area.
Phoebe:
Yes? Did you discover something?
Phoebe:
Eh? Did you... Perhaps the fighting has taken a toll. Would you like to stop for a short break?
Phoebe:
We'll be heading east. Beyond Thessaleo Fells lies Averardo Vault.
Phoebe:
It's going to be a long journey, so please, do let me know if you feel like resting at any point.
Phoebe:
Speaking of which, there's a Wingray over there. If you'd like to try flying one, we can take it to Averardo Vault.
Phoebe:
Averardo Vault wasn't one of the Order's commissioned projects, but it never ceases to amaze me whenever I see it.
Phoebe:
If only the Montelli family could hold the Sentinel in the same regard as they do their riches…
Phoebe:
Look over there! Aren't they the same type of will-o'-the-wisps we encountered at the Thorncrown Rises?
Phoebe:
I never expected to see it again... What's really happening here?
Phoebe:
In any case, could you please take a photo of it, Rover?
Phoebe:
Oh dear... I'm so relieved... Thank you for your help, Rover!
Phoebe:
How frightened it looks... The Tacet Discords must have hurt it terribly.
Phoebe:
I... I want to help it.
Encouraged by your support, Phoebe reaches out her hand toward the Echo.
Phoebe:
Hello, I mean no harm. I promise I won't hurt you.
Phoebe:
My name is Phoebe, and I'm an Acolyte of the Order. May I take a look at your injuries?
The Echo watches Phoebe warily as she gets closer.
Phoebe:
I haven't seen you at the Order. You're not a registered Common Echo, are you? Where did you come from?
Phoebe:
You don't seem well. Please let me help... Ah!
As Phoebe takes another step closer, the Echo transforms into a will-o'-the-wisp and flees.
Phoebe:
Yes, I'm fine. But it ran away. Why...
Phoebe:
Its frequency is becoming more unstable. If it doesn't get tuned soon and encounters more Tacet Discords...
Phoebe:
It's my fault for scaring it off... I was too reckless. How could I mess up something so simple...
Phoebe:
I'm sorry you had to see that, Rover. I... I messed up again...
Phoebe:
It's nothing. Please forget it. Let's move on, Rover.
Phoebe:
I'm sorry for worrying you. I've just been a little off these past few days.
Phoebe:
Hehe, you're right. The truth is, I took this break to clear my mind and gather myself.
Phoebe:
But I feel more lost than ever... If this keeps up, I won't even be a good guide for you.
Phoebe:
You're right. Let's move on.
Phoebe:
That Echo fled north, and north of Averardo Vault is the Fagaceae Peninsula, which just so happens to be our next destination.
Phoebe:
Those wisps are its traces, right? That means...
Phoebe:
As long as we continue to follow them, we should be on the right track.
Phoebe:
According to doctrine, all Echoes in Rinascita exist and thrive due to the Sentinel's blessings.
Phoebe:
They're the Sentinel's envoys, conveying Their blessings and proof of the bond between Them and the people.
Phoebe:
I've never seen an Echo like that... but now it's appeared before me. Could this be a sign from the Sentinel?
Phoebe:
Anyway, let's move on.
Phoebe:
I'll do my best to be a good guide for you.
Phoebe:
Watch out! Tacet Discords are approaching again! Wait...?
Phoebe:
They seem to be hunting something... Is that an Echo they're chasing?
Phoebe:
I've never seen an Echo like that before... I must help it!
Phoebe:
Here we are! You can now see the outline of Oakheart Highcourt, nestled deep within the Fagaceae Peninsula.
Phoebe:
In ancient times, the ancestors of Rinascita discovered a sacred shrub growing in Oakheart Highcourt.
Phoebe:
It grew from the roots of a grand oak at the court's center, its fruits a rich russet, its flowers vibrant. The branches were said to be a medium for communing with the Sentinel.
Phoebe:
Legend has it that it was on that magnificent oak tree that the Sentinel inscribed the very first oracle.
Phoebe:
Since then, the fruit was regarded as a holy offering, used by the Order in rituals to commune with the Sentinel.
Phoebe:
The people of Ragunna crafted barrels from this oak to brew fine wines, offering this joy as a tribute to the Sentinel.
Phoebe:
In those days, the bond between the people and the Sentinel was much stronger.
Phoebe:
Oh, wait! I see it, Rover! More wisp traces...
Phoebe:
Let's photograph them first. From the looks of it, the Echo should be nearby.
Phoebe:
Thank you, Rover. These photos will greatly aid my research when I return.
Phoebe:
But unfortunately, we still haven't found that Echo.
Phoebe:
I wonder how it's doing now. Is it alright? Oh no, could it be hiding from me?
Phoebe:
If I can't even find an Echo...
Phoebe:
But I... Rover, do you remember Lorelei? We encountered her in Nimbus Sanctum with Zani.
Phoebe:
She said that the Sentinel could no longer deliver Their oracles...
Phoebe:
Since then, I've poured over countless texts. But the more I search, the more lost I feel. It's as if I've been blindfolded and tossed into the sea...
Phoebe:
Perhaps I'm not devout or wise enough to uncover the truth... I often wonder how the Sentinel is faring now.
Phoebe:
Every time I think of your stunning performance at the Carnevale, I feel as though I've missed something right in front of me.
Phoebe:
But what is it? I still haven't figured it out.
Phoebe:
Before today, I thought the sight of Oakheart Highcourt would offer me a revelation, just like the sages in the legends.
Phoebe:
But the oracles on the stone walls and the oak branches feel so silent and distant...
Phoebe:
Oh, I'm not doubting my faith. I suppose... I'm doubting myself.
Phoebe:
My apologies. I didn't mean to show you this side of me again.
Phoebe:
Was that...?
Phoebe:
Yes, it seems to be trying to avoid being noticed by Tacet Discords.
Phoebe:
It's fleeing northwest... toward Penitent's End.
Phoebe:
Is it trying to go home?
Phoebe:
You're right. Let's hurry and catch up.
Phoebe:
Rover, look, there's a Wingray over there.
Phoebe:
We don't have much time, so let's take a Wingray and go.
Phoebe:
F-finally... We-we caught up...
Phoebe:
Let's take down these Tacet Discords first, Rover.
Phoebe:
Well done, Rover! It's safe now.
Phoebe:
But it still seems scared... I want to help it, but...
Phoebe:
Rover... but I...
Phoebe:
Yes, those are the words of Imperator, the Sentinel... I'm surprised you still remember them.
Phoebe:
I understand now. No, I should have understood sooner...
Phoebe nods at you, gathers her courage, and extends her hand toward the Echo once more.
Phoebe:
Hello, we've met before. I'm Phoebe, and I promise I won't hurt you.
Phoebe:
You must have been living in fear... I can feel how anxious your frequency is.
You can feel a connection forming between Phoebe's Terminal and the Echo.
Phoebe:
I see... so that's how it's been, hmm?
Phoebe:
You were brought into this world by accident, forced to leave your homeland... You never registered with the Terminals of Rinascita and had to wander in the wilderness. Then, you were attacked...
Phoebe:
I'm sorry for prying into your past, but this is how I can help you.
Phoebe:
Your misfortune, your fear, and your long journey for survival... I'm so sorry.
Phoebe:
I can't say, "I completely understand you." That wouldn't be true.
Phoebe:
But as an Acolyte of the Order, I promise you that I will give my all to help you.
Phoebe:
If you want to return home, I will help you find a way to cross the ocean to Penitent's End...
You can feel the Echo's wariness and hostility gradually fading away.
Phoebe:
But before that, please let me check your frequencies, or let me try tuning you...
Phoebe:
You were hurt by those Tacet Discords, and if your injuries are left unattended it could be dangerous.
The Echo nods in agreement. With Phoebe's help, its injuries are quickly healed.
Phoebe:
Thank you for trusting me. Your injuries are healed, and you no longer have anything to fear.
Phoebe:
Now, all that's left is to find a way to send you back home... Hmm...
Phoebe:
Typically, you can only reach Penitent's End by taking the Pilgrim's Sail. But now that we're here, that means...
The Echo shakes its head and approaches Phoebe.
Phoebe:
Oh? Are you saying...
Phoebe:
You want to return to Ragunna with me?
Phoebe:
Oh my, thank you... Thank you so much for trusting me. I...
Phoebe:
Rover, I... I did it!
Phoebe:
Alright, that's about it. Thank you so much, Rover. These pictures are wonderful.
Phoebe:
Well, it's not just about the photos…
Phoebe:
It's about… your performance at the Carnevale, and this journey we've shared…
Phoebe:
Ever since we met, I feel like whenever I feel lost, you've been there to encourage me in some way.
Phoebe:
It's almost like you are one of the Sentinel's revelations...
Phoebe:
Ahem, moving on now... Penitent's End is the final stop in our Ragunna tour.
Phoebe:
I remember you've been here before? Have you heard any of its stories?
Phoebe:
Legend has it that long ago, before the Dark Tide, Penitent's End wasn't the forbidden land it is today.
The Echo beside Phoebe nods in agreement.
Phoebe:
Back then, the Ragunnesi worshipped here and made pilgrimages to this place. By its sandy beaches, flocks of white birds would soar across the sky.
Phoebe:
Falcons would swoop down from the cliffs, startling the gulls into spirals of white as they took flight.
Phoebe:
If only I could see that with my own eyes.
Phoebe:
Hehe, after all, it was only after the Dark Tide that this place became forbidden... transformed into what it is now.
Phoebe:
But I want to know, Rover, after what you've seen, how do you feel about Ragunna?
Phoebe:
Is it... a wonderful place to you?
Phoebe:
Exactly. That's how I feel too.
Phoebe:
Growing up in the Order, there are many things I never really considered. I-I can't even name my exact feelings for Ragunna.
Phoebe:
In the past, the Sentinel bore all my confusion and responsibilities.
Phoebe:
But now, through this journey with you, I'm beginning to understand myself.
Phoebe:
I realize now that to me, Ragunna is the most wonderful place in the world. Nothing compares to it.
Phoebe:
Along the way, we've captured stunning sights, revisited pieces of Ragunna's history, and even rescued this little one.
The Echo beside Phoebe nods in agreement.
Phoebe:
I believe all these experiences are the revelation the Sentinel intended for me.
Phoebe:
The true meaning behind the Sentinel's oracles lies in the happiness found in purity and unity.
Phoebe:
Honestly, I didn't fully understand these words, so I took a long leave to go on this pilgrimage in search of meaning.
Phoebe:
Though I'm still not entirely clear…
Phoebe:
I won't let confusion hold me back any longer.
Phoebe:
Perhaps it's because I've met the legendary "Righteous One"?
Phoebe:
Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Rover.
Phoebe:
This has been a wonderful trip. I believe this brief but meaningful experience will stay with me forever.
Phoebe:
As an Acolyte, I'm not supposed to express my feelings so openly…
Phoebe:
But if you ever want to hear more stories about Ragunna, you're always welcome to visit me at the Cathedral.
Phoebe:
Eh? Were you taking photos of me?
Phoebe:
I'm a little embarrassed, but still, I appreciate you taking pictures of our journey together.
Phoebe:
Such memories are precious to me.
Phoebe:
But... could you also help take some photos of the wisps left by this Echo?
Phoebe:
Thank you.
Phoebe:
Perfect! I've saved the necessary data for further study. Thank you so much for your assistance.
Phoebe:
But why do unique phenomena from Penitent's End appear here in Thessaleo Fells?
Phoebe:
Wait, be careful Rover! Tacet Discords are approaching!
Actor No. 1:
What exactly are these wisps?
Actor No. 1:
Why are they here? Could they be linked to the old nobility?
Actor No. 1:
The old nobility... What did Gilberto mean back then...
Actor No. 1:
These wisps are the same as the ones we encountered before...
Actor No. 1:
But why are they here in front of the vault? Could it mean that both the old and new nobility are...
Actor No. 1:
Or does it mean that such will-o'-the-wisps are all traces of something?
Actor No. 1:
How is that Echo now?
Actor No. 1:
Its form and those wisps... From what kind of Tacet Discord did it transform?
Actor No. 1:
If only I had been more composed and devoted—would that have made a difference...
Actor No. 1:
So this was its true form all along?
Actor No. 1:
The Sentinel's Envoys seem to be more diverse than I thought...
Actor No. 1:
Stories about the Divine Envoys in the Codex of Holy Rituals don't mention anything about wisps like this...
Actor No. 1:
In the The Golden Bough, the author compared the Divine Envoys to the Sentinel's eyes. If that's true...
