Rinascita II Act VII
Dreamcatchers in the Secret Gardens
The Dreamer seals her heart and surrenders to a world of dreams beyond mortal sight. In this hidden realm built upon melancholy melodies, she walks a path of fragile hope and delusions without looking back. But the dreams she longs to realize have long been tangled up in shadow and deceit. Beneath the lofty facade of the Orchestrator, who seems to have everything, is but a wretched, pitiful soul, drowning in her own illusions.
In the end, will this dream of blooming and withering be a sweet reverie or a haunting nightmare?
Quest List
Rover:
This wasn't part of the plan, was it?
Phrolova:
No. Someone interfered. I've never been here before.
Rover:
Then we'd better find a way out quickly.
Guiding Acolyte:
Dear brothers and sisters, you who stand before us shall be an irreplaceable force in Rinascita's salvation.
Guiding Acolyte:
Let us join together to spread light to all, and face the Divine Ordeal in unity.
Guiding Acolyte:
Come, join us! Offer your prayers to the holiest sacred land!
Guiding Acolyte:
Amidst your endless research, do not forsake your faith! Never forget! They are always watching!
Rover:
(There's no light in their eyes. Just emptiness… and blind devotion.)
Phrolova:
These fanatics can give you no answers.
Rover:
Why are there so many ensnared Acolytes here?
Rover:
Let's check out what's happening.
Phrolova:
Agreed.
Rover:
I didn't expect the Order's rituals to be this elaborate.
Phrolova:
Elaboration fosters reverence.
Rover:
Fair point.
You follow a group of Acolytes to a statue, where an altar holds the lantern of Napoli the Second. Upon touching it, you are suddenly teleported into an illusive realm.
Devout Acolytes:
How do we lead people to worship You?
Devout Acolytes:
We guide them closer to Your boundless grace.
Devout Acolytes:
How do we lead people to believe in You?
Devout Acolytes:
We let them touch Your very soul.
Devout Acolytes:
Come closer.
Devout Acolytes:
Reach out your hand.
Devout Acolytes:
Until you walk with Them.
Rover:
There's an inscription on the altar.
Rover:
"I am no longer Them. I will lead the people forward."
Rover:
Imperator's statue is gone… Is this Fenrico's ambition?
Rover:
The next line reads...
Rover:
"It reminds us that the Sentinel walks with us, illuminating our path with wisdom."
Rover:
The Sentinel… Could this lantern be the very one Napoli the Second used? The one imbued with the Sentinel's power that allowed him to repel the Dark Tide?
Rover:
(That lantern wasn't real... Where am I?)
Rover:
(Where's Phrolova?)
Phrolova:
Take the red gate.
Phrolova:
He wants to trap us here forever.
Rover:
Phrolova?
Phrolova:
I'm here. Do what I said.
Phrolova:
The flickering lights show you the way forward.
Phrolova:
If time works against you, then change it.
Phrolova:
Leave the Orchestration to me. You just open the red gate.
Rover:
Was that reality or an illusion…?
Phrolova:
Does it matter? Let's move forward.
Phrolova:
A secret space with no visible exit. That can only mean...
Rover:
There must be hidden pathways.
Phrolova:
Perfect timing.
Rover:
Wait, we just unlocked something.
Rover:
I'd really like to see what secret is kept in such a place.
Phrolova:
Heh. No exit. Only a dead end.
Phrolova:
O sinful dream, why do you disturb this tranquil slumber?
Phrolova:
The weeping child lingers no more.
Phrolova:
Instead, she raises her hand and claims that vaporous drop.
You come across an Ochestration Altar. You suggest Phrolova handle the Orchestration while you search the area for any useful clues.
Rover:
Is this another Orchestration Altar? It looks different from the one before.
Phrolova:
The principles should be the same.
Rover:
I'll check the surroundings for clues while you handle the Orchestration. It'll be faster that way.
Phrolova:
Sure.
Phrolova:
Take the red gate.
Phrolova:
...
Phrolova:
Leave the Orchestration to me. You just open the red gate.
With no way out, Phrolova points out that disguising yourselves as Acolytes is the only viable option.
Guarding Acolyte:
Brothers and sisters, if your resolve is firm, step forward. The sacred pilgrimage awaits.
Guarding Acolyte:
Remember! Only the devoted shall receive Their blessings.
Phrolova:
To find the exit, we must play along.
Phrolova:
How about a simple disguise, dear Acolyte?
Reading through the files you found, you uncover a hidden truth: the Dark Tide has long shackled the subconscious of the Ragunnesis. Only by defeating the Harbinger and bringing back all the trapped souls can it be resisted. Fenrico's pursuit of the Threnodian's energy and the Lost Beyond is actually an attempt to use them to house the Ragunnesi's subconscious and fend off the Dark Tide's invasion. But who is this Harbinger? Something seems to be hampering Fenrico's plans. Could there be other hidden risks to his actions?
Rover:
("Unity is the sole deliverance from the Divine Ordeal." That's why Fenrico fought to keep Ragunna from falling into discord.)
Rover:
(The record says darkness has long shackled the Ragunnesi's subconscious. Only by defeating this Harbinger, descending into the depths of darkness, and bringing back all trapped souls can the Dark Tide be resisted...）
Rover:
(So that's why he's after the Gem and the Beyond. He intends to use them to house the Ragunnesi's subconscious and fend off the Dark Tide.)
Rover:
(The Acolytes we encountered... They were probably the martyrs who tried and failed.)
Rover:
(...Could he really have come up with this solution entirely on his own?)
Rover:
(Gathering everyone's consciousness and keeping them in some sanctuary...)
Rover:
(But when I compare this to the information I found before, the handwriting is the same, but the viewpoints contradict each other.)
Rover:
(That recording I found earlier also mentioned Fenrico giving conflicting orders to the Acolytes at times.)
Rover:
(He doesn't strike me as indecisive. He must've noticed these inconsistencies himself. That's why he left these notes and the lantern, as reminders to himself.)
Rover:
(What other force is at play here? The path of salvation he's chosen might not be as perfect as he thinks...)
Rover:
From among the faithful, a powerful Harbinger shall arise, bringing both life and annihilation from the Dark Tide into this world.
Rover:
This Harbinger... Who does that refer to?
Phrolova:
I don't know. Nor do I care.
Rover:
...
Rover:
Alright, let's move on. There's an opening below. We might find a way out there.
With no way out, Phrolova points out that disguising yourselves as Acolytes is the only viable option.
Guarding Acolyte:
Brothers and sisters, if your resolve is firm, step forward. The sacred pilgrimage awaits.
Guarding Acolyte:
Remember! Only the devoted shall receive Their blessings.
Phrolova:
To find the exit, we must play along.
Phrolova:
How about a simple disguise, dear Acolyte?
