Ebony Gatekeeper:
Rover, I've just sensed a Dreamscape Node being restored in the Sanguis Plateaus. And no surprise, it was your doing.
You describe what happened to the Ebony Gatekeeper.
Ebony Gatekeeper:
A dark sword burning in flames, with Nightmares bearing Dark Tide frequencies coming out of it when touched? Could it be...
Ebony Gatekeeper:
Indeed... That appears to be the case. The question is, who placed the sword there?
Ebony Gatekeeper:
Was it a unique Resonator who could perceive the Dreamscapes, or could this power originate from the Somnoire itself?
Rover:
When that sword disappeared, I felt a warm frequency in the wind.
Ebony Gatekeeper:
How extraordinary... If it's not too much trouble, could you restore the remaining nodes, Rover? I'll mark their locations for you.
Ebony Gatekeeper:
If my suspicions are correct, the answer to the sword's origin is hidden within the remaining nodes.
Ebony Gatekeeper:
Rover... Many years ago, I learned a line of a poem... in a dream, from someone in Huanglong.
Ebony Gatekeeper:
It goes... "Their forms did fall, yet souls endure unbound. Valiant in death, as heroes they are crowned."
Rover:
Sounds like you've figured out those swords?
Ebony Gatekeeper:
Yes. And it would seem I've made an error of judgment on my part.
Ebony Gatekeeper:
They originated from neither a Resonator nor a Somnoire... There was no need for them to be "unique." They are merely the dreams of the fallen from Septimont, who couldn't reach the Somnoire.
Rover:
Merely dreams?
Ebony Gatekeeper:
Indeed. Dreams. No matter how much they burned, the warriors could not eliminate the Nightmares. The best they could do was trap them, biding their time until the arrival of a "hero."
Rover:
And that was why the frequencies that constituted those swords ultimately faded, reaching for Septimont...
Ebony Gatekeeper:
They were hoping to return home. The warriors of Septimont would much rather return to their homeland than find eternal peace in Dreamscapes.
Rover:
…
Ebony Gatekeeper:
Ah, yes. I've discovered something interesting within the final Node of the Sanguis Plateaus.
Ebony Gatekeeper:
As their long-awaited hero, you should take it.
