Dialogue[]

Quest Description

A strange frequency has led you to Whining Aix's Mire. A mysterious "Gate" stands here, spelling a secret revelation of the past.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Here you are.

Ebony Gatekeeper: I've been waiting for you.

Who are you?

Ebony Gatekeeper: Call me the Gatekeeper for now. My name doesn't matter. What really matters is the Gate here.

Why were you waiting for me?

Ebony Gatekeeper: The gate has been waiting for you, to be more exact.

What is this Gate?

What's inside it?

Where does it lead to?

Ebony Gatekeeper: Behind this gate lies the Somnoire, a space where all the dreams, memories, and emotions of Solaris-3 converge.

Ebony Gatekeeper: It remembers the sweetness of a child's coveted candy and the madness entwined in a dictator's schemes. It delves into the depths of life's subconscious, acquainted with both its beauty and baseness.

Ebony Gatekeeper: In other words, it holds the dreams of all living beings, eternally recorded.

Who made this space?

Ebony Gatekeeper: It's made up of the experiences of every individual on Solaris-3 throughout history.

Does it have anything to do with me?

Ebony Gatekeeper: The Somnoire records everything on our planet, with your existence being a crucial component for its normal functioning.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Before your reawakening, something that shouldn't have been there had infiltrated the Somnoire.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Now, the Somnoire is in a state of chaos, and your assistance is much needed to restore its stability--Wait, something's not right...

Before he could finish the sentence, several Tacet Discords suddenly emerged from the Gate...

Ebony Gatekeeper: Tacet Discords are coming out of the Gate...

Ebony Gatekeeper: The situation inside Somnoire must be worse than I thought.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Impressive.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Now I am more confident you'd be able to help us restore the Somnoire to its normal state.

I still don't understand what this Gate is.

But it looks dangerous.

Ebony Gatekeeper: I can't explain it further to you just yet. Not before you regain your memories.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Authentic memories and experiences are imperative for the Somnoire, and I can't casually tamper with them.

Ebony Gatekeeper: At least you now know Tacet Discords are coming out of it. It's kind of like the Tacet Fields.

Ebony Gatekeeper: If you can help us fix the Somnoire, we may be able to prevent more Tacet Discords from showing up. It's like clearing the Tacet Fields.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Of course, you will be adequately compensated. What do you say?

I can't sit back and watch more TDs show up.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Yes, you've always been like this... Perhaps this why the Gate has chosen you.

Tell me how much you're paying first.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Yes, you've always been like this... Rest assured. I guarantee you'll receive generous rewards.

I want to know more about the Gate.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Once you enter the Gate and see those anomalies with your own eyes, you'll naturally learn more about the Somnoire.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Time is ticking. Let's get inside, then.

(Cutscene plays)(Cutscene ends)

Ebony Gatekeeper: As you can see, we are now inside the Somnoire. What do you think of it?

It's beautiful.

It's bizarre.

I've never seen anything like this before.

Ebony Gatekeeper: After all, it's made up of the memories and dreams of countless individuals.

Ebony Gatekeeper: What happens in dreams is always beyond our imagination.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Back to the point, in the Somnoire, you'll encounter other entities apart from me.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Like her.

Who is she?

Ebony Gatekeeper: She is a virtual entity, a conglomeration of the countless consciousnesses within the Gate.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Just think of her as someone dreaming, but she doesn't truly exist. She's just an Illusia created by the Gate.

Will she attack me?

Ebony Gatekeeper: No. She is friendly.

Why is she here?

Ebony Gatekeeper: Because there's gotta be someone dreaming in a dreamscape, right?

Ebony Gatekeeper: In fact, she will be your valuable assistant in the Somnoire.

Ebony Gatekeeper: You cannot bring anything inside here. If you need anything in battle, you'll need to manifest them from recorded memories.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Such as... the Echoes you use in battle.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Go talk to her. She'll provide you with the necessary ingredients for your dream.

Illusia: Ah, hello. Are you dreaming too?

Are you really dreaming?

Illusia: Yes, I'm forever dreaming. You wouldn't believe what I've been dreaming of.

Yes, greetings, my fellow dreamer.

Illusia: Haha, hello, nice to meet you too. I haven't seen anyone as energetic as you.

Hi, please give me an Echo or two.

Illusia: There is no need to rush...

Illusia: Now that you've discovered me, I bet you're curious about the dreams I'd had, aren't you? I've been dreaming about a lot of cool stuff.

Illusia: Just now, I dreamt of...

Illusia: How do you like my dreams? Exciting, right?

They are very strong indeed.

Illusia: Hehe, I didn't lie to you, did I?

Thank you for sharing your dreams with me.

Illusia: You're welcome. I take delight in telling you my dreams.

Illusia: I've had countless dreams that go far beyond what people can imagine, but sadly, I had no one to share them with...

Illusia: I'm more than willing to share my dreams with you, as long as you're interested!

Why not now?

Illusia: I understand you're here for business, not my dreams.

Illusia: You know something bad is happening here, right?

Illusia: Weird things have been gathering in the Somnoire recently, and as a result, I've been having nightmares...

Illusia: So I won't be keeping you here much longer. If you can bring things back to normal, we'll have plenty of time to hang out.

???: Meow!

And you are?

Lampy Cat!

Aw, aren't you adorable?

Ebony Gatekeeper: They aren't supposed to be here. This Memory Zone must have been corrupted, too.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Don't underestimate them, Rover. Be careful. We have no idea what kinds of enemies may appear in the current Somnoire.

???: Meow!

Nice to see you again.

Thank you for the gift.

It's a pleasure to meet you.

???: Meow!

Ebony Gatekeeper: Not sure what that thing was, but the Metaphor it provided should come in handy.

Ebony Gatekeeper: There is no such thing as an objective reality in this realm of dreams and memories. The more obscure something is, the more possibilities it holds.

Ivory Gatekeeper: Finally, you are here.

Why did you change your clothes?

Ivory Gatekeeper: ...

Are you the brother of the guy I met earlier?

Ivory Gatekeeper: No, I'm not.

Ivory Gatekeeper: Do not trust anything that man has told you.

Why?

What's your relationship with him?

Ivory Gatekeeper: We used to work together to guard and maintain the Somnoire.

Ivory Gatekeeper: But now, I would no longer call him a Gatekeeper.

Ivory Gatekeeper: You may have noticed how he is nowhere to be seen since you met me.

Ivory Gatekeeper: Because I've temporarily sealed off this area. He won't know you met me here.

Ivory Gatekeeper: However, you can't stay here for too long. He might become suspicious.

Ivory Gatekeeper: Before I leave, I'll provide you with some assistance.

Ivory Gatekeeper: I hope this will make your exploration easier.

Ivory Gatekeeper: By the way, I am the white cat you just saw. Hopefully, he couldn't tell it was me...

Ivory Gatekeeper: Anyway, this is important: Please remember what I said. Never trust that man under any circumstances.

Ivory Gatekeeper: Hmmm... That's enough talk for now. I trust you'll use your wise judgement to figure out what really lies behind that mask.

Ebony Gatekeeper: What took you so long to leave that area?

Ebony Gatekeeper: Ugh, enemies are everywhere.

Ebony Gatekeeper: But it seems you've become somewhat accustomed to the battles here. That's good.

Ebony Gatekeeper: I've got something for you... They should come in handy at some point.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Anyway... See that thing over there? It's the culprit behind the chaos and corruption in this area.

Ebony Gatekeeper: It looks tough to deal with. You should make good use of the Illusive Echos and Metaphors you've gotten so far.

Ebony Gatekeeper: That's amazing. I thought...

You thought what?

You thought I'd be defeated?

Ebony Gatekeeper: I thought this task wouldn't be easy, even for someone like you.

Ebony Gatekeeper: I underestimated you.

Ebony Gatekeeper: The Somnoire has grown increasingly chaotic and dangerous.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Recently, it has been devouring and copying all dreams without discrimination...

Ebony Gatekeeper: You'll encounter more bizarre occurrences in the Somnoire... Creatures, plants, Tacet Discords, and even your cherished friends.

Ebony Gatekeeper: While you are aware it's a dream, these sights may still leave a lasting impact on your psyche. I hope you are prepared.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Anyway... You did well today. I'll meet you outside the Gate.

Ebony Gatekeeper: How are you feeling?

What do you mean?

The monsters in there weren't that hard to beat.

Ebony Gatekeeper: You seem calm. Good. That means the Somnoire's effects haven't gotten to you.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Keep up with the good work, will you?

Ebony Gatekeeper: Well, now you've thoroughly cleared this area.

Ebony Gatekeeper: As you've probably already noticed, the Somnoire is really large, and what you've just cleared was just a tiny fraction of it.

Ebony Gatekeeper: To prevent future incidents like Tacet Discords escaping again, there is still much work to be done.

I have many questions about this place.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Well, you can come back here to get your answers, then.

I'll come here often.

Ebony Gatekeeper: I knew you're not someone to sit back and watch.

Don't forget the pay you promised me.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Of course, I'll be sure you get the pay you deserve.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Let's wrap up the exploration for now. Time to leave.

Ebony Gatekeeper: Next time, we'll delve into the deeper Memory Zones together.

As soon as the words left his mouth, Ebony Gatekeeper disappeared, as if what had just happened was a dream.
