Actor No. 1:
I've never heard a song like this in Haldarheim before...
Actor No. 1:
So captivating... I've got chills!

Songdis:
I've never heard a song like this in Haldarheim before...
Songdis:
So captivating... I've got chills! I've completely forgotten about my tank getting destroyed!
Songdis:
Totally! Do you want to play a round of Jungle Wars?
Songdis:
It doesn't even matter if you lose. It's worth playing just to hear the level music!
Songdis:
If all you care about is winning, you'll miss out on so many beautiful things—like this game's music!
Songdis:
It's so simple, but so catchy! I think it's called a chiptune.
Songdis:
We Roya have a long history of music. Why haven't we ever composed something like this?
Songdis:
Then I'm going to write a song just like this!
Songdis:
I'm going to write the first Royan-style chiptune!
Songdis:
Since it will be a Royan composition, naturally, I'll have to return to the Bjartr Woods for inspiration.
Songdis:
Since you'll be the first listener, do you want to help me come up with ideas?
Songdis:
Of course!
Songdis:
Anyway, we need to get our ideas down first. Meet me just outside of the Bjartr Woods!

Songdis:
You made it without a hitch! That's a good sign. I'm sure our collaboration will be smooth sailing from here!
Songdis:
What do you think is indispensable to a Royan chiptune?
Songdis:
That's a great answer! Since we're at the Bjartr Woods and basking in the light of the Reactor Drive...
Songdis:
...All we need now is a Soliskin.
Songdis:
I believe Soliskin are quite musically talented. They even have their own performance venues!
Songdis:
One is up high in the Solvein Canopy, but there are a few venues here, too.
Songdis:
Let's go!

Soliskin:
Chuchuluu...(*Dejected cheeps*)
Songdis:
I get it... Your buddies didn't come today. It wants to play with us.
Songdis:
I could have been a Shepherdess when I was living in the village.
Songdis:
But after I got into Startorch Academy, I fell behind in every class. It really is a place for the best of the best, and I wasn't one of them.
Songdis:
Of course not! I studied hard!
Songdis:
But if I wasn't in my room studying, I was at the RPG arcade.
Songdis:
From jungles that looked like the Bjartr Woods, to metropolises like I could never imagine, games have taken me to so many different places and left me with so many beautiful memories.
Songdis:
Now I want to write a song that will remind me of all that beauty.
Soliskin:
Chu, Chuluuchu...(*Expectant cheeps*)
Songdis:
Don't worry little fella, we can play right now!

Soliskin:
Chuluuluu...(*Joyful cheeps*)
Songdis:
No trouble at all, buddy. I love playing with you!
Songdis:
And your happy little chirp has just inspired me!
Soliskin:
Chuchuu, chuluu...(*Pleading cheeps*)
Songdis:
You just can't get enough playtime, can you?
Songdis:
It said there's another place where it likes to play, and it wants to take us there.
Songdis:
You're not too tired, are you?
Songdis:
I'm not sure what that means... But it sounds like you're ready to go!
Songdis:
Let's follow this Soliskin and play some more!

Songdis:
This looks like another Soliskin playground...
Songdis:
I feel like I've just reached a new map in a game!
Songdis:
Let's play, buddy!
Soliskin:
Chuu!

Songdis:
Those keys sound lovely...
Songdis:
I have an idea! How about we play that tune backwards? It'll be a whole new song!
Songdis:
Yep! We'll hit the keys that the Soliskin played in reverse order!

Songdis:
This melody sounds great backwards and forwards!
Songdis:
Are you having fun, buddy?
Soliskin:
Chuchuluu...(*Happy cheeps*)
Soliskin:
Chu, luuluuluuluu (*Excited cheeps*)
Songdis:
What's that? Your friend is back? And it's close by?
Songdis:
Relax, finding inspiration for our song is more important. Everything's going according to plan.
Songdis:
The other Soliskin is here, which means more opportunities to get inspired.
Songdis:
Can you take us to your friend?
Soliskin:
Chuluu!
Songdis:
It says yes! Come on, what are we waiting for?

Soliskin:
Chuu Chuu, Chuluuluuluuluuluu! (*Overjoyed cheeps*)
Songdis:
They want us to dance with them!
Songdis:
Come on! Jump on the mushrooms in the same order as the Soliskin, and try to keep up!

Songdis:
That was so much fun! Look, the Soliskin are happy too!
Soliskin:
Chuluu, Chuchuluuluu (*Pleased cheeps*)
Songdis:
What's this? They're giving you the Soliseeds on their heads!
Songdis:
These are very important! Soliskin usually only give them to their herders. Take good care of them!
Songdis:
Don't you worry! Our adventure with the Soliskin will be the foundation for my composition!
Songdis:
Thank you for coming along and helping me find inspiration! I think we've got all the ideas we need for now!
Songdis:
I'll let you listen to the song as soon as it's written!
Songdis:
Let me think...
Songdis:
No, I'm just about done with games for now.
Songdis:
The song I'm writing is, in fact, a farewell to them. Isn't it funny?
Songdis:
I already have a favorite Department, and I'll need to work hard to get into the research group I want.
Songdis:
I'm grateful that games were a source of companionship... But I want to put them down for now.
Songdis:
These memories are precious to me, so I want to properly say goodbye to my games, the arcade, and the worlds they created.
Soliskin:
Chu, Chuluu? (*Concerned cheeps*)
Songdis:
Oh, I didn't mean to sound sad! Don't worry. Once I've reached my goals, I'll be back!
Songdis:
Thank you for all the fun. I'm going to go write that song, and then it's time to hit the books!
Songdis:
Make sure you listen to the whole song when I send it to you!

Songdis:
What's up? Did you miss me?
Songdis:
My song is finished. I've sent it to your Terminal! In order to distinguish it from 8-bit chiptunes, I've decided to call it Sixteen Centimillion Bits!
Songdis:
It took me forever to get right. I hope you like it.
Songdis:
I hope that somewhere, somehow, this song will bring you strength—just like my games did for me.
Songdis:
Now I'm going to fight for the future I want.
Songdis:
See you in the future!
