Quest Description

Rumors of sounds of a piano echoing in the rain seems to have attracted many curious visitors. Go investigate around the abandoned theater and find out the truth about this strange phenomenon.

(Talk to the Anxious Young Man): What are you doing here?; It's not safe for you to be standing here.; Anxious Young Man: Aah! You scared me!; Sorry. Were you looking some something?; Anxious Young Man: *sigh* I was just having a fuss over something.; Anxious Young Man: Look in the distance. See that valley? There's an abandoned theater in the middle of it.; Anxious Young Man: My uncle. He went down there all by himself.; It looks like no man's land down there.; Anxious Young Man: Ugh. Tell me about it.; Anxious Young Man: The area's been abandoned for years. Who knows what kind of stuff might be down there.; Anxious Young Man: Wouldn't be surprised if you get crushed by a falling boulder or even have a building fall on top of you.; Anxious Young Man: But that stubborn old man. He even swung his fists at me when I told him I was going to go along with him...; Why does he have to go down there?; Anxious Young Man: Oh, you have no idea how stubborn that old man of ours can be at home. Especially with that temper of his.; Anxious Young Man: At home, whatever he says goes. Not to mention he's also known in the field for being a wacko and a pain in the butt to get along. Musicians on the receiving end of his temper and harsh critiques are a common thing.; Musicians?; Anxious Young Man: My uncle became a renowned composer in the field at young age.; Anxious Young Man: Don't know what's gotten him worked up a few days ago after he saw a random news report.; Anxious Young Man: Everyone in the family couldn't talk him out of coming all the way here, and now he's just left me here...; A news report?; Anxious Young Man: Yeah. It's one of those boring rumor ghost stories. The kind that even kids wouldn't fall for.; Anxious Young Man: It's headlines went something like: "Abandoned Theater in the Rain--A Paino Plays Without it's Performer."; Anxious Young Man: *sigh* I think his age is finally catching up to him...; I'll help you go look for him.; Anxious Young Man: Really? That would be great. No wonder my uncle always talks about how people of Jinzhou are so kind and warm-hearted. Guess it's all true.; Anxious Young Man: I was really stuck between a rock and a hard place. If he saw me going after him, he'd freak out for sure.; Anxious Young Man: Plus with his heart condition and all... Thank you. As long as you can find him and make sure he's safe, then that's good enough for me!

(Talk to the girl near the chest): Girl Sheltering from the Rain: Eek! You're a person!; What were you expecting? A ghost?; Girl Sheltering from the Rain: Hahaha. It's just that people usually don't visit these parts.; Girl Sheltering from the Rain: Here, I've got some room to share. You don't want to get wet.; What are you doing here?; Girl Sheltering from the Rain: Haha. Since you asked. How about you answer why you're here first?; I'm looking for someone.; Girl Sheltering from the Rain: You're... looking for someone?; An elderly man.; Girl Sheltering from the Rain: Hmm... An elderly man...; Seen anyone that fits the description?; Girl Sheltering from the Rain: I've only been here for just a while. Haven't met anyone besides you.; Girl Sheltering from the Rain: This isn't a place for an old man to be wandering all by himself.; Girl Sheltering from the Rain: I'll come along and help you look for him if I have the time later.; So what brings you here?; Girl Sheltering from the Rain: Oh. It's nice meeting you. I'm a journalist from the Pioneer Association. You can call me Siran.; I'm (Rover).; Siran: I came here to follow up on a news piece.; The "Piano in the Rain"?; Siran: So you've heard of it? Did you read the full article?; I've heard of it.; Siran: Wow. The article only had a few lines in the magazine. I thought barely anyone noticed it.; Siran: Hehe. In all honesty, I'm still just an intern.; Siran: I only came across the rumors by chance. And if everything goes well, this'll be my first formal investigative report!; Siran: But my editor thinks I'm just wasting my time on some random rumors...; Why are you so interested in these rumors?; Siran: Hmph. You sure have a lot of questions to ask for a stranger.; Siran: It's just my personal interest, that's all.; Siran: I've only managed to get down here not long ago, and it started raining before I could get an investigation going.; Siran: But on a side note, I think I'm actually in luck. I remember from the rumors that the piano will go off whenever it starts to rain.; Siran: I just don't know for sure if we can hear it from here.; Siran: Or maybe... we should walk around a bit?; Siran: Then again, I don't want to miss it for walking too far.; Siran: Huh? Listen. Do you hear that? You hear something faint coming from that direction?; I'm not sure.; Siran: Maybe I'm just hearing things...; You seem a little anxious.; Siran: How about we go together and head towards that direction?; Siran: You can help me keep an ear out for the piano, and I'll help you keep an eye out for that old man of yours.; Siran: It's safer if we both stay together, amirite?; Siran: If anything happens out of the ordinary, we can look out for each other.; Sure.; Siran: Great!

Investigate

A piano faintly echos in the rain, extremely difficult to make out the direction its coming from. Siran quickly takes out her recorder to record it.

Talk

Siran: Great, it's starting to pour. Not worth getting all my gear soaked.

Do you want to move on?

Siran: Hmm...

Siran: We've been walking around this area for a while, and we haven't heard any more of that piano.

Siran: Why don't we find a place to take shelter from the rain first and go over those recordings? See if there are any clues we can analyze.

Siran: Should we go back where we were earlier?

Let's go.

Talk

Siran: Hey. Look over there. What are they doing here?

Siran: This place sure grew in popularity in just one day...

Siran: Could it be that they all came here after reading the article? It can't be...

Siran: Hiya. Are you also here to take cover from the rain?

Siran: You...

Wait. Something feels off.

"Young Man": Sir! The performance is in less than four hours! I need to go over the piece for at least another rehearsal.

"Middle-aged Man": Hey, you've practiced it a thousand times already, what difference do you think it'll make?

"Middle-aged Man": We've got less than four hours to spare, why don't we make use of this time to go for a walk? Enjoy the scenery.

"Middle-aged Man": It's your first time in Jinzhou, isn't it?

"Young Man": That's exactly why I have to be more careful. Got to make a good first impression in front of the people of Jinzhou!

"Young Man": Besides, I know how confident you are. But I'm not like you.

"Middle-aged Man": It's true that you and I are different, Arin. Your style is clearly more robust.

"Middle-aged Man": But sometimes you put yourself in much tension, which leaves yourself in a lack of harmony and enjoyment.

"Middle-aged Man": Jinzhou is a border city of Huanglong. The people here are tenacious and optimistic. Thus the music they create are also grand and majestic, full of vigor.

"Middle-aged Man": I believe it has something in common with your style. A staff told me that there's a record store not far from here, so I was thinking...

"Young Man": I understand your meaning, sir. It's all due to my lack of practice and confidence.

"Young Man": I'll work harder. Forgive me that I can't accompany you on this sightseeing.

"Young Man": I'll head back to the theater to practice and help you sort out the music sheets and performance list for today.

"Middle-aged Man": Arin...

"Middle-aged Man": *sigh* That kid... I can do it myself just fine.

Siran, are you okay?

Siran: J... Joshua... It's Mr. Joshua!

Mr. Joshua?

"Young Man": Sir! The performance is in less than four hours! I need to go over the piece for at least another rehearsal.

"Middle-aged Man": Hey, you've practiced it a thousand times already, what difference do you think it'll make?

"Middle-aged Man": We've got less than four hours to spare, why don't we make use of this time to go for a walk? Enjoy the scenery.

Siran: Why... Why are they repeating the same conversation...?

Siran: I see... I see how it is...

Siran: It's Mr. Joshua's spirit!

Siran: Mr. Joshua's spirit is trapped inside this area... Trapped forever...

What are you talking about, Siran?

Siran: I... Mr. Joshua is the reason why I came here.

Siran: Twenty years ago, he saved my life from a terrible accident.

Siran: He saved me, by sacrificing himself! And I...

Siran: For all these years, I've been scared to come back here. Whenever I close my eyes, that terrible moment would show up inside my mind...

Siran: It was until I heard the rumors. Whenever there is rainfall, the sound of Mr. Joshua's piano can be heard...

Siran: That ghostly figure, is just as Mr. Joshua was in my memories!

Siran: He must be trapped here. The sound of falling rain is the sound of his soul weeping... As he plays his music on and on...

Siran: It must be his way of expressing his frustration. Frustrated at why I haven't come back to visit him after so many years... Why didn't I come free him...

Siran. Take a deep breath!

Siran: It has to be his spirit! You have to help me! I need to find a way to save him!

I don't think it's his spirit.

Siran: What do you mean?

They call this the "Retroact Rain."

Siran: Retroact Rain?

Retroact Rain can recreate images or events from the past.

Siran: I see... I've only read about it in textbooks... Never actually seen one before...

Siran: Rain that falls invertedly back towards the sky, while creating illusions of past events in its area... After looking at it closely, the rain is really falling upstream...

Siran: Mr. Joshua... What we saw, was it really a mirage from the past?

Siran: But... But the books say mirages that appear are completely random!

Siran: Why... Of all times it could of happened. Why now? Why appear in front of me?

Siran: It must be fate...

Siran: If you think I've gone crazy, you can just leave me if you want.

That's not what I had in mind...

Siran: I'm sorry. I'm getting a bit emotional. I didn't mean to get mad at you.

Siran: I need to take some time alone, see if the mirage will appear again...

Not a problem.

Siran: Thank you. I appreciate your understanding.

I'll go take a look around.

Siran: Okay. Please be careful.

I'll see if there are any clues in the records store.

Siran: ...

Siran: Thank you...

(Go to the illusions): Illusions. Here?; "Joshua": Hmm... Pop music... Folk music... Classical...; Rainwater leaking in. That explains the illusions in the store.; "Little Girl": Oh!; "Little Girl": Hey, mister! Did you want to buy this record too?; "Joshua": *chuckle* It's fine. Go ahead, you can have it.; "Little Girl": Tee-hee. Thank you, mister.; "Joshua": Classical music. Quite the taste you have there, young girl.; "Little Girl": This one? Hehe, it is kind of hard for me...; "Little Girl": Mother told me, i-it's best for me to build my musical senses with the harder ones from the start!; "Little Girl": My fingers hurt from all the practice, but I'll keep working hard!; "Joshua": Good for you, child. You know the importance of practice very well.; "Joshua": What do you think, mister? Mother is right, but I think sometimes there's other ways to choose music.; "Little Girl": Oh? Then how do you purpose you should choose?; "Joshua": Hmm... For example... What kind of music do you usually like to listen to?; "Joshua": What kind of music makes you want to can't help but hum along whenever you hear it?; "Joshua": Or perhaps, the kind of music that makes you want to dance along to?; "Little Girl": Err...; "Little Girl": Mother wouldn't be happy if I told her that...; "Little Girl": I know! Every time when we pass by the theater, the sound of drums and gongs!; "Little Girl": You know, those sounds are so lively! They always make me want to hop around along with them!; "Joshua": Haha, is that so? I also quite enjoy the sounds of percussion instruments of Jinzhou.; "Joshua": It's a shame that I probably won't have time to go to the theater and enjoy them myself this time.; "Joshua": In that case. Let's see here.; "Joshua": Ahh, this one. "Collection of Traditional Percussion Music". I'm sure you'll like it.; "Little Girl": Woah!; "Little Girl": B-But, Mother wouldn't buy me anything that's not piano-related.; "Joshua": I see... It's okay, you can have it as a gift.; "Little Girl": I can't. Mother told me I can't take things from strangers.; "Joshua": Ahh, yes. Your mother is absolutely correct about that.; "Joshua": How about this, I'm sure you know about the performance at the theater tonight, yes?; "Little Girl": Yeah! Mother is a fan. It's what we're visiting here for!; "Joshua": Perfect. Then I'll leave my signature on this record. After the performance, bring it with you and come to the backstage with your mother.; "Joshua": Think of it as a special gift for a fan. What is your name, young girl?; "Little Girl": Oh, really? Thank you, mister! My name is Siran!; "Joshua": Okay, Siran. Here you go.; "Joshua": Ah, would you look at the time. I still haven't found a gift for my assistant yet.; "Joshua": I look forward to seeing you tonight, little pianist.; The mirage... disappeared.

Siran: How's it going over there for you?

Siran: I think I found something. Let's meet up at these coordinates after you're done.

Pick up the record fragments; The mirage gradually dissipated in the rain. The destroyed record store was in total mess, with fallen shelves lying everywhere and pieces of records scattered across the floor.
(Obtained Record Fragment x1)

I found a record fragment.

(Submit Record Fragment x1)

Siran: There you are. Did you find anything?

I saw a mirage of your childhood.

Siran: My... my childhood?

Siran: You mean... The one when Mr. Joshua gave me the record...?

That's right.

Siran: This is why... This is why I'm so afraid to go there.

Siran: I've lost it... The record... Lost it when I was running for dear life. I don't know where. It's been long gone.

Siran: It was a record Mr. Joshua picked for me.

Siran: If we knew that I lost it, I can't imagine how sad and disappointed he'd be.

He wouldn't blame you.

Siran: It's okay, you don't have to cheer me up.

He wouldn't know.

Siran: It's okay, you don't have to talk me out of it.

Siran: The only thing that's on my mind right now is how to free Mr. Joshua's soul from this place.

Siran: Okay, gotta pull myself together.

Siran: Oh. It came to me while I was walking around earlier.

Siran: Mr. Joshua mentioned in his memoirs that he liked to compose music at places where there's water.

Siran: I remember there's a body of water not far away, so I went to try my luck.

Siran: And lo and behold, I heard the piano playing again when I got near the water.

Siran: I don't know why, but the sound of that piece felt really faint, like it's coming from every direction, from the skies.

Siran: It was impossible to tell the direction it was coming from.

Siran: The area around the water is too wide for me to do a complete go-around in a short amount of time.

Siran: That's why I contacted you, hoping you could help me investigate.

No problem.

Siran: Thanks.

Siran: Now, I'll go in this direction and you go the opposite. Meet back here in 15 minutes.

Investigate

Hidden in a secluded spot is an old recorder playing a piano piece. The sound is distorted with static, making it sounds somewhat eerie.

(Go to the top of the watchtower): Investigate; On top of the watchtower, you notice a beat-up recorder playing the same piano piece. Together with the two recorders in the middle of the lake surface on the ground, a sound field is cleverly created. This must be where the music was coming from.

Talk

Siran: Didn't find anything out of the ordinary on my side.

Siran: Strangely enough. The farther I go, the further away I seemed to be from the piano.

Siran: So I assumed the source is most likely towards your direction and hurried back.

I found an Exile camp.

Siran: Exiles? What are they doing here?

Siran: What about the piano? Did you find the source?

The Exiles were broadcasting the music.

Siran: What are the Exiles using Mr. Joshua's music for?

Siran: What are they trying to get out of it? This doesn't make any sense.

To spread panic rumors.

To keep people away.

Siran: You mean to tell me that the "Piano in the Rain"... is just a ghost story made up by the Exiles just to scare people away from their territory?

Siran: So it's just an ordinary mirage... Not his lingering spirit.

Why so persistent about Mr. Joshua's spirit?

Siran: Persistent. Huh..?

Siran: I don't know... maybe I am being too presistent.

Siran: Then if it's not Mr. Joshua's spirit...

Siran: If even his spirit's gone...

Siran: How am I supposed to tell him I'm sorry?

Siran: Sorry that I quitted the piano and gave up on music.

Siran: Sorry that I failed to take care of that record.

Siran: Sorry that I ran away without even looking back at him.

Siran...

Siran: I'm sorry... I was just...

Wait. Did you hear that?

Siran: Huh?

Siran: Yes. I can hear it.

Siran: It sounds pretty far away.

Do you have a pair of binoculars?

Siran: I do, let me find it.

Siran: There! I see someone! Over there, right by the lake!

Siran: Looks like... An old man?

(Head to the Old Man by the lake): Elder: Who are you? What do you want?; Don't go into the water.; Elder: Let me go this instant.; No. It's too dangerous.; Elder: I...I'm not trying anything dangerous. Just let me go.; Your nephew asked me to come find you.; Elder: My nephew?; Elder: That fool of a child.; Elder: I'm in perfect health. What could possibly happen to me?; Why were you trying to go into the water?; Elder: What do you think I'm trying to do?; Elder: See that over there? On the high ground.; Elder: It suddenly occurred to me that there was something over there.; Elder: And I must get it back...; Elder: Get your dirty paws off me. I just need to get it back. It's nothing to worry about.; I'll help you.; Elder: Huh? My business is none of your concern, youngster.; It'll be quick andeasy.; Elder: You... *coughing*...; Elder: Oh. Look at you, young and everything. You feel so proud about yourself don't you...?; Elder: W-Well... Then I shall thank you in advance. It should be right on that platform. As for what it is you're looking for, you'll know when you see it.

Pick up; You found a book-like object, layered with dust and dirt. The few vague musical notes that can be made out reveal that it seems to be a piano score.
(Obtained Sheet Music Fragment x1)

I found a music sheet fragment.
(Submit Sheet Music Fragment x1): Elder: Yes. That's is it. This is the one...; Elder: After 20 years, I'd thought it had completely rotten out...; Elder: It must be my mentor's spirit safekeeping it all this time...; Could it be, you're Master Arin?; Arin: So you've heard of my name from my nephew?; Arin: *cough* Thank you, young man.; Arin: You can go tell my nephew I'm fine.; You've must've came here for Mr. Joshua?; Arin: You... you know of my mentor?; Arin: Wait. Are you here because of that news article about the ghosts?!?! *coughing heavily*...; Take it easy, sir.; Arin: How can I not be excited about this?; Arin: So there are still people who remember my mentor. Just like I have.; Arin: My dear mentor... Is your soul finally at rest?; You describe to Master Arin in detail the encounter with Mr. Joshua's mirage during the rain.; After hearing your story, Arin stared at the lake with a blank face and went silent for a long time, before finally burying his head into his hands, sobbing painfully.; Arin: Mr. Joshua... As you saw in the mirage, I wasn't at the record store with him.; Arin: Nor was I at the theater for more practice as I had said.; Arin: I came here instead, standing in the spot where I am now.; Arin: With this piano score in my hands.; Why did you come here?; Arin: Jousha would often stay next to large areas of water whenever he composed piano pieces.; Arin: He would close his eyes, with a very peaceful smile on his face. He said he listens to the symphony of winds and water.; Arin: I volunteered to be his assistant at the time.; Arin: I became famous at a young age, so famous to a point where everyone praised that I was a musical genius which only appears once every hundred years.; Arin: I cherished my title of a genius, but I didn't let go of my efforts, so inevitably I became successful.; Arin: But I knew that no matter how talented I am, or how hard I practiced, there will always be a behemoth looking down at me, and a plethora of leading musicians that I cannot surpass at the time.; Arin: So I volunteered to become Joshua's assistant. I hope to stand next to his side and learn from him at very moment. Thinking that one day I'll be able to surpass him.; Having a competitive mindset may lead to misfortune.; Arin: Ha. You're quite perceptive for your age aren't you?; Arin: That's right, the more impatient I am, the more I feel inferior to him.; Arin: How does he keep his composure all the time?; Arin: Why the casual attitude?; Arin: Why does he always tell me to be calm and relax?; Arin: Why can he just listen to the sound of water and winds, and have expressions of so much enjoyment? And can't I?; Arin: After glossing over the piano score in my hands, looking at the dotted notes in his handwritings.; Arin: A sudden urge of emotions that I couldn't even define flowed into my head.; Arin: And I flung the score into the air with all my strength, turned my back and headed towards to the theater.; Arin: I made up my mind that after the performance, I would request a formal resignation to my mentor.; But then...; Arin: But then, halfway there, I heard a soul-shaking blare.; Arin: The eerie howls... ground-shaking boomings of the theater collapsing... and the screams of people running for their lives...; Arin: I was caught between the fleeing crowds, petrified as rescue workers dragged and pulled me away...; Arin: After I was taken to a safety area, I desperately searched for my mentor among the survivors....; My condolences.; Arin: So many years have passed. I know more than anyone that there was no chance Joshua could've survived.; Arin: Since then, I can no long play again, so I became a composer.; Arin: But when I saw the news, there's no doubt in my mind that his soul had made a return.; Arin: He was calling out to me.; ...; Arin: Oh... Forgive me, it's just me getting old. Every time I think of the past, I always end up rattling on.; Arin: I apologize for dragging you along in this woeful story of mine.; Arin: I have to go back to the theater, with this music score, and finish the performance that was meant to be.; I'll go with you.

(Head to the theater): As Arin opened the music score and placed it on the music desk, hands trembling, Siran's voice emerges from behind you.; Siran: That piano... I can't believe it's still here...; Siran: May I know who you are, sir?; Arin: You must be here for Joshua, same as this young man I presume?; Siran: I... I do miss Mr. Joshua dearly.; Arin: Well you've arrived just in time. Who could've imagined that a twenty-year-suspended performance would be greeted by two audiences.; Make it three.; Arin: Ah, yes, yes. How can I forget.; Arin: If my mentor could see this now, he'd be deeply pleased.; Siran: Mentor? Are you...; Arin: It's just how I refer to him. I was Joshua's...assistant. But nowadays I would rarely mention myself as his student.; Arin: I don't deserve it.; Siran: Sir...I...; Siran: I've always thought that if I'm lucky enough to meet Mr. Joshua's relatives or those close to him, I should... I should...; Siran: Express my apology...; Arin: Apology?; Siran: Mr. Joshua... He... It was because of me... He..; Siran...; Siran: It's okay.; Siran: That day, I came to the theater with my mother, and I was extremely excited for the performance.; Siran: I didn't know at the time that the person who gave me the record at the record store was the maestro Joshua that my mother had admired so much.; Siran: Before the performance, he came up on stage and kindly greeted the audience.; Siran: He said that the highly anticipated opening performance was to be performed by his beloved pupil. He joked how it was the student's first large public performance and he was a little nervous.; Siran: How the student was sharp and more talented than even himself, and everyone will fall in love with him and his performance.; Arin: ...; Siran: Then, out of nowhere, I heard strange noises above my head.; Siran: Mr. Joshua and I were the first to notice the noises. We looked up at the ceiling almost at the same time.; Siran: Before we knew... the sky came down on top of us.; The theater collapsed?; Siran: Yes, it was... it was that monster.; A Tacet Discord...; Siran: It was still a time where knowledge of the TD's habits were limited, and the guidelines and restrictions on places on outdoor theater performances were not as strict as they are now.; Siran: I had no idea what was happening. All I remember was being pushed out by my mother and just run.; Siran: I couldn't tell which direction I was going, rocks and debris were falling everywhere. Screams and sounds of panicking people running echoed behind me.; Siran: And... and that deep snarl...; Siran: Just when I was at a loss, a large hand grabbed me from the shadows.; Siran: I wanted to scream, but then I found out that it was Mr. Joshua.; Siran: He covered my mouth and took me into a crack formed from collapsed concrete.; Arin: Joshua... Joshua he...; Siran: I don't know how long time had passed before the screams around us disappeared.; Siran: It was nothing but dead silence... All we could hear was the harsh breathing sound... The sound of a giant hoof stepping over rocks.; Siran: It was pacing...; Like some kind of hunting behavior?; Siran: It must be. We later realized that it must've heard us breathing, so it kept wandering around.; Siran: We waited, waiting to see if it'll find a new prey, praying for it to leave.; Siran: I've long lost track of time, and rescue was still not coming. All I knew was that my lips were as dry as if they would crack at any moment, and my consciousness getting weak...; Siran: Mr. Joshua started gently patting me on the back, I could vaguely make out the rhythms. It was his debut piece.; Arin: That piece... The one that's been floating around this place.; He wanted you to stay awake.; Siran: Yes.; Siran: But his rhythm started to slow down.; Siran: He checked my pulse and stopped patting, like he'd made some kind of decision.; Siran: He opened my eyelids, told me that he's going to carry me in his arms and leave our hideout together on his mark, and that all I needed to care about was to just run, run until my legs would give out.; Siran: I was terrified, but I didn't want to die, I wanted to see my mother.; Siran: So I nodded in agreement.; There was no way a little girl can outrun...; Siran: Mr. Joshua thought of it as well. He knew that it was impossible for us to outrun that monster. I'd never escape on my own.; Siran: He carried me in his arms and walked out of the debris. We held our breathes as he tiptoed forward...; Siran: But just as we barely got out, we heard the monster's hastened footsteps darting toward us...; Siran: Mr. Joshua set me down on the ground and yelled - "Run!"; Siran: And he rushed in the opposite direction...; Towards the piano...; Siran: The sound of piano began to play, smooth like the flow of water, as the footsteps immediately turned in its direction...; These creatures are naturally attracted to sound.; Siran: Yes...; Siran: Those sounds... those terrifying sounds...; Siran: I didn't look back... Too afraid to look back...; Siran: All these years, I've been scared to look back, covering my eyes and ears... always running away...; Siran: If it wasn't for me...; Arin: That's wonderful...; Siran: ...; Siran: Sir?; Arin: So there was an audience there for Joshua's final performance after all.; Arin: He dedicated his final piece... to you.; Arin: His little audience.; Siran: ...; Arin placed his finger on a piano key. After twenty years, the battered piano that had witnessed everything gave off a low-pitched sound for the first time.

(After defeating the Tacet Discord): "Joshua": Oh, where did he run off to now? He said he'd be here for some practice.; "Joshua": I hope he isn't mad about what I said earlier.; "Joshua": I wonder if it'll give him a startle when I announce his upcoming first ever solo concert after his performance today. Haha.; "Joshua": Oh, he'll be practicing and getting ready for it all day long that's for sure.; "Joshua": Need to come up with a good way to persuade him to relax his mind and go feel the world more.; "Joshua": Then again, no musician wouldn't have their share of practices when they were young.
