Triada Prison.
On a whim, Alisa and her companions infiltrated the prison through the front gate.
“Hey! Who are you people?”
The gate closed behind them. A robot suddenly appeared before them.
“Oh no, we’ve been spotted already!? Remind me again who’s brilliant idea this was — who was the genius who thought that coming in from the front would ‘throw off the enemy’ and ‘catch them by surprise’!?
With this many Robot Police, there’s no way they intend on having a fair fight. It will be necessary to put an end to them quickly.
Alisa struck deftly at the Robo-Cop’s head. Striking with precision, she smashed their camera lens to pieces. The descending Robo-Cops had fallen prey to Alisa’s sword.
Alisa awoke from her nightmare. What the heck was that monster?
“Good morning, Alisa. You look crazy pale. Did you have a bad dream or something?” asked Tyrone from inside the room where they had an audience with the governor yesterday.
“Yeah, I had an awful nightmare. I dreamed that we were all being attacked by a terrible monster. We all got killed.”
“Whoa! That’s pretty ominous. As for me, I had a dream that I was being attacked by a hoard of cuties! And Myau was dreaming that he had a never-ending bowl of cat food.”
“Anyway,” interjected Alisa, “if you had seen what I saw in my dream, your face would be pale, too. —Ah, Governor!” Alisa straightened up.
“Oh, as you were, as you were. Good day. I had this drawn up for you.”
The Governor handed Alisa a sealed envelope.
“To the north of Paseo, there is a cave called ‘Maharu’. The esper who lives there is called Lutz; you should go to him with this letter. That should convince him to become your loyal ally.”
“Thank you very much!”
“Don’t mention it! Make sure to come back here, once you have brought La Shiec to his downfall!”
“What the? This is no good. I’m back at the start again. Jeez, it’s not like I’m bad with directions!”
Alisa once again went into the entrance of the cave.
Scion’s Armor Shop specialized in defense. Alisa could buy a Light Suit for 30 meseta, which would be much more durable than her current Leather Cloth.
(If you buy the LIGHT SUIT, write it down on the Item List and subtract 30 MESETA. Then add +1 to CP. If you do not buy the LIGHT SUIT, then don’t write down anything.)
After leaving the store, Alisa headed for the inner harbor.
The bloodshot cyclops Devil Bat came nose diving right for Alisa!
She let out a moan as blood gushed out of the top of her shoulder. The monster’s wings were sharp as a razor blade. (-1 HP)
“How DARE you scar a lady’s delicate skin!” Alisa yelled out, repeatedly striking at the Devil Bat until she became tired and worn-out. Apparently, Alisa is the type to fly into a rage at the sight of blood. Any life signs the monster might have had left was gone. (+1 CP, +10 MESETA)
Continuing on her journey, Alisa soon came to the edge of the forest. It seemed to be a smaller forest than she thought.
Inside the basement of her home, Alisa Landale was putting her brother Nero’s personal effects away into storage. While sorting through his items, she found something: a treasure box.
“Wow, there’s fifty meseta in here. My brother must have been saving up for his fight against La Shiec.” (Gain 50 MESETA). A short sword was also inside the treasure box. (Obtain item SHORT SWORD).
Alisa clasped the short sword and held it to her chest. An image of her brother floated past her eyes.
“While I was digging for more information about La Shiec, I heard a story about a warrior named Tyrone. I bet if… if you teamed up with him, you might be able to defeat La Shiec and save the planet. They say that Tyrone travels around with a talking cat. L..look for them.”
“I wonder who this Tyrone person is… I have to find out.”
Alisa’s long quest for revenge has begun. So, where to go first?
