Lahai-Roi Compilation of Side Quests
Where Wisdom Lights the Way
A Roya girl pauses before a stone wall. She explains that it holds one of the foundations of the Roya tribe, a record of the operating patterns of the Reactor Drive. You decide to join her in relighting these petroglyphs, restoring the wisdom with which the Roya once measured their world and ensuring their brilliance never fades.
Quest List
Actor No. 1:
...Ah! So this is the spot indicated by the writings.
Actor No. 1:
But how do we illuminate the entire petroglyph?
Dari:
But how do we illuminate the entire petroglyph?
Dari:
Come closer, student of Startorch Academy. Look carefully at that rock face. Do you see those strange symbols?
Dari:
According to the ancient text in my hand. After the Roya arrived in Lahai-Roi, we used a Sunstone to inscribe the Reactor Drive's operational patterns on this rock face.
Dari:
It was one of the cornerstones of Royan life. And when the old ways no longer held, we measured the world anew by our own stride and used the knowledge we gained to create a new calendar.
Dari:
When the Spacetrek Collective arrived in Lahai-Roi, they found these inscribed "treasures" left by the Roya.
Dari:
They installed lighting systems to illuminate the petroglyphs in commemoration of these early explorers, letting the world know the contributions the Roya made.
Dari:
But as the Void Storms became more frequent, the Spacetrek Collective lacked the manpower to maintain the lighting systems.
Dari:
The power supply has been cut off, and the systems have been down for some time.
Dari:
I want to re-illuminate petroglyphs, so they're not abandoned to darkness.
Dari:
The accumulated wisdom of the Roya should shine through the night to inspire future explorers.
Dari:
Really? Thank you! I'm Dari. What's your name?
Dari:
Alright, student Rover. This text says that there are four petroglyphs. This one here is the biggest.
Dari:
When one of the other petroglyphs is illuminated, a part of this one here will light up as well.
Dari:
Exactly. I think it would be best if we split up. You can restore power to the other petroglyphs, and I'll stay here and watch how this one responds.
Dari:
If anything isn't working right on this petroglyph, I'll be able to let you know.
Dari:
I'll mark the other three petroglyphs on your map.
Dari:
But how do we illuminate the entire petroglyph?
Dari:
Come closer, student of Startorch Academy. Look carefully at that rock face. Do you see those strange symbols?
Dari:
According to the ancient text in my hand. After the Roya arrived in Lahai-Roi, we used a Sunstone to inscribe the Reactor Drive's operational patterns on this rock face.
Dari:
It seems someone else had the same idea as me and is illuminating the petroglyph. I don't know if you know, but these used to be one of the cornerstones of Royan life.
Dari:
When the old rules no longer applied, the Roya measured the world anew with their own two feet and created a calendar using the new laws.
Dari:
When the Spacetrek Collective arrived on Lahai-Roi, they found these "treasures" left behind by the Royans.
Dari:
They installed lighting systems to illuminate the petroglyphs in commemoration of these early explorers, letting the world know the contributions the Roya made.
Dari:
But as the Void Storms became more frequent, the Spacetrek Collective lacked the manpower to maintain the lighting systems.
Dari:
The power supply has been cut off, and the systems have been down for some time.
Dari:
I want to re-illuminate petroglyphs, so they're not abandoned to darkness.
Dari:
The accumulated wisdom of the Royans ought to shine proudly through the night, inspiring the deeds of future explorers.
Dari:
Really? Thank you! I'm Dari. What's your name?
Dari:
Alright, student Rover. This text says that there are four petroglyphs. This one here is the biggest.
Dari:
When each of the other petroglyphs is illuminated, a part of this one here will light up as well.
Dari:
This petroglyph is partly lit, which means someone's already illuminated one of the other petroglyphs. Now we just need to light up the other two.
Dari:
Excellent. I think it would be best if we split up. Rover, you can restore power to the other petroglyphs, and I'll stay here and watch how this one responds.
Dari:
If anything isn't working right on this petroglyph, I'll be able to let you know.
Dari:
I'll mark the other three petroglyphs on your map.
Rover:
This must be it. It looks like this petroglyph has two parts.
Rover:
But why are there Zip Zaps here? Were they attracted by the lighting system on the rock face?
Rover:
I know Zip Zaps can serve as a backup energy source in emergencies. Maybe I can use one to get the power back on temporarily.
Rover:
That Zip Zap looks like it's absorbing electric current. I should take a closer look...
You receive a message from Dari.
{message} Dari:
Have you succeeded, Rover? A part of the big petroglyph here has lit up.
{message} Dari:
Photo
{message} Rover:
I was just going to send you a message.
{message} Dari:
That circuit is pretty complicated. How did you manage to get it working?
{message} Rover:
Got myself a little Echo helper.
{message} Dari:
I see! Roya from the tribe tell me that Zip Zaps can store massive amounts of energy in their bodies.
{message} Dari:
You can let me know the whole story when you get back. According to my text, the next petroglyph is located near the Spacetrek Observatory. See if you can find it.
Actor No. 1:
When did this petroglyph light up?
Actor No. 2:
Don't just stand there, start taking pictures! We might very well be the first to witness this!
Rover:
This petroglyph has multiple parts.
Rover:
It looks like someone deliberately damaged the wiring...
Timid Outcast:
Is this stuff really worth anything, boss?
Outcast Leader:
Don't worry about it. Just grab everything.
Timid Outcast:
Hehe, sure thing, boss... Hey, someone's coming!
Wire-Thief Outcast:
OUCH! It shocked me! I thought these things were off! ...Well, don't just stand there. Let's get out of here!
Rover:
...Sounds like there were others. Well, I think I'm done here.
You receive a message from Dari.
{message} Dari:
Wonderful! Another section lit up!
{message} Rover:
How does the petroglyph look now?
{message} Dari:
The petroglyph? There's only an outline now, but geometry is coming together... An elegant expression of ordered beauty!
{message} Dari:
Photo
{message} Dari:
And they say that we so-called observationalists have no sense of romance. That our obsession with rules and patterns sucks the beauty out of the world.
{message} Dari:
But isn't it awe-inspiring to learn how the world works?
{message} Rover:
That's what the Spacetrek Collective does too.
{message} Dari:
Indeed. Well... there's still one left. Can you help?
Actor No. 1:
This is amazing! It's just like using the Observatory instruments...
Actor No. 2:
Looks like someone fixed the circuits. It's still flickering a bit though. When we get back to the Academy, I'll ask someone to take a look at it.
Rover:
Something is obstructing the current. Could it be the flying fish statues?
Rover:
Is there a way to get rid of these statues?
You receive a message from Dari.
{message} Dari:
Are you there, Rover? The final section of the petroglyph just lit up!
{message} Dari:
I'm guessing everything is going well on your end.
{message} Rover:
The flying fish were obstructing the current.
{message} Dari:
Oh really? Well, did you run into any trouble when you were fixing it?
{message} Rover:
I took care of it.
{message} Dari:
Then I'll wait for you here. I was going to take a picture for you anyway.
{message} Dari:
But come to think of it, a picture can't do it justice, especially at night...
{message} Dari:
When it gets dark, the petroglyph is brilliant against the night sky, illuminating Lahai-Roi with mankind's wisdom.
{message} Dari:
Words cannot describe the sight.
{message} Rover:
Then shall we go together to see it at night?
{message} Dari:
Absolutely. I'll be waiting!
Rover:
The petroglyph is lit now that the statue is gone. I'll head back and meet with Dari.
Rover:
This petroglyph is already lit...
Rover:
I remember there used to be statues of flying fish here. Maybe their disappearance has something to do with the lighting.
Rover:
That's strange. Why is this petroglyph already lit? The lines look like some sort of trajectories.
Rover:
Is this because the flying fish statues are gone?
You receive a message from Dari.
{message} Dari:
Hi Rover! The entire petroglyph is illuminated!
{message} Dari:
How are things over there?
{message} Rover:
All good.
{message} Dari:
That's good. I was going to send you a photo. But...
{message} Dari:
A picture can't do it enough justice. You must come and see it for yourself, especially at night...
{message} Dari:
When it gets dark, the petroglyph is brilliant against the night sky, illuminating Lahai-Roi with mankind's wisdom.
{message} Dari:
Words cannot describe the sight.
{message} Rover:
Then shall we watch it together tonight?
{message} Dari:
Absolutely. I'll be waiting!
Actor No. 1:
They're lit again? Wow... I haven't seen them shining in years. They're so pretty at night.
Rover:
I've done it! But there's still a part that isn't lit.
Rover:
I'll have to take a look at the other side.
Rover:
This half of the petroglyph is lit. Time for the other side.
Rover:
I wonder how Dari's petroglyph is looking... Well, either way, I've got to get this other side lit.
Dari:
Rover, you're here!
Dari:
Look—over there. Isn't it beautiful?
Dari:
The earth finally feels real now that I see them lit again.
Dari:
These petroglyphs are a collaboration, Rover—both the Roya and your Spacetrek Collective made them what they are.
Dari:
Indeed. We've done what we wanted to do. Whether in the past or today, we're both doing the same thing.
Dari:
Doing all we can to protect what matters to us.
Dari:
And as for this petroglyph...
Dari:
The people of the past recorded the natural laws to the best of their understanding using symbols. Now we use formulas to define and uncover what underpins those laws.
Dari:
You and I have both imparted our wisdom onto this rock face in our own way.
Dari:
And that wisdom, like this newly illuminated petroglyph, will never succumb to darkness.
Rover:
Are those petroglyphs on the rock face? Who made them?
Dari:
Whenever you have a moment, you can come back here and watch, Rover.
Dari:
True wisdom never dies. It shines in the deepest darkness, illuminating our way forward.
