Phantasy Star III Complete Script (Aron)

Third Generation

The Adventures of Aron, Prince of Landen, Satera, and Dahlia

(Nial chooses to marry Alair.)

Nial:Will you marry me, Alair?

Alair:I was starting to think you'd never ask!

Narrator:Lune declared Nial to be king of the moon Dahlia. The war ended and peace settled over Alisa III. Alair and Nial soon had a son they named Aron; Lune married and had a daughter he named Kara. Aron and Kara grew as peace reigned over all. As the children neared the age of 18, however, the long years of peace came to a sudden end....

Dahlia

Soldier:Nial! Alair! Lune! Look out the window!

(A spaceship identical to Alisa III appears and laser fire is exchanged between the two vessels. The other ship is destroyed.)

Soldier:Another spaceship just like ours! Why are the ships firing at each other?

Kara:You're not going anywhere without me!

Narrator:Kara joins your party.

Nial:Aron, please take Mieu and Wren with you. Find out what happened with those spaceships. I'm afraid there's more trouble in the works.

Alair:Look out for each other, Aron and Kara.

Lune:Aron, we seem to be at war once again. Take your cousin Kara with you on your quest. Find out what's going on, but be careful!

Soldiers:

• Who knows what the spaceships fought about?
• That blast knocked our ship out of orbit! I sure hope nothing bad comes of this.
• Legends tell of wise people in a sky-city that floats over a dome of ice and snow. Our dungeon has a device that allows Wren to fly!
• Laya has gone back to sleep in her palace. Perhaps she would join you, if you asked her.

Aerone

Townspeople (Men):

• The explosion forced our ship to alter course.

Townspeople (Old Men):

• Something is preventing us from changing course. You must get rid of it before we crash.

Townspeople (Women):

• Welcome to Agoe, the last home of the pilots. East on this path leads to the moon, Dahlia.
• There's nothing beyond this spaceship.

Southern Divisia

Townspeople (Old Men):

• Our people once piloted this great spaceship. Aerone is rumored to have pilots even now. Some rebels are in a cave far to the west. The sub parts for Wren are also in that cave. Use these to find Laya's Treasure in Aridia.

Townspeople (Women):

• To reach Aerone, you need Laya's Pendant.

Divisia Castle

Nobles:

• Real pilots are almost nonexistent nowadays. Much knowledge has been lost since they left us. Not to worry, though, Rulakir is still around.

Soldiers:

• Welcome to glorious Divisia-town, strangers! Did you know that Wren cyborgs can transform? You must find the parts to fly, swim, and dive.

King:

• Our ancestors piloted this spaceship long ago. But over the years, much knowledge has been lost.

Northern Divisia

Townspeople (Men):

• Welcome to Northern Divisia.

Townspeople (Women):

• Enter the castle to reach Southern Divisia. A pilot lives beyond the bay past our town.

Hazatak

Cyborgs:

• Human visitors are rare in the town of Hazatak.
• We leave the fighting to you foolish humans!
• Journey southeast to see an amazing whirlpool.
• An old cyborg roams the desert north of here.
• To explore the whirlpool southeast of Hazatak, first find sub parts for your Wren cyborg.

Aridia

Miun:Where is Orakio? It's been 1,000 years, but I'd know his black sword anywhere!

Laya's Palace

Old Men:

• Laya entrusted the future to her sister.
• We have protected Laya for over 1,000 years. Cryogenic sleep has kept her alive since the war.
• This princess is Laya's younger sister. Strangely enough, she is also named Laya!
• Mystoke, on Frigidia, holds a key to truth. Return to the desert and go southwest with Laya. The portal to Mystoke awaits you there.

Laya:When your father decided to marry Alair, I left the Laya Pendant and came here to rest. After 18 years of rest, I yearn for adventure!

Narrator:Laya joins your party.

Mystoke

Townspeople (Women):

• Hurry! Enter the castle of Mystoke!
• Much will be revealed within Mystoke Castle!
• At last! We have waited centuries for Laya's kin to reach Mystoke, the Castle of Silence.
• Use the Laya Pendant to hear Laya's final words. Then journey to Aerone, south of Divisia.
• You will be tested within the castle gates. If you pass the tests, Laya's Pendant is yours. All the doors to her palace will open to you.

Skyhaven

Cyborgs:

• We welcome you to the Castle of Skyhaven.
• My masters have waited centuries for you.

Old Men:

• The ultimate evil dwells on a floating city in the barren waste lands of the dome named Terminus.
• A word of ultimate power has been lost for ages. This name can empower the weapons of legend.
• To discover the lost name, you must first find all five weapons of ancient legend.
• The ancient heroes used the legendary weapons. These are Orakio's Sword, Miun's Claw, Siren's Shot, Laya's Bow, and Lune's Slicer.
• The name of power can be learned on Sage Isle, in Draconia, the world of old Cille and Shusoran. Our dungeon holds the aqua parts for Wren. These will enable you to wrest Orakio's Sword from its watery tomb and to visit Sage Isle.

New Mota

Old Men:

• The people of New Mota keep our past alive.
• The others here can tell you much about our past.
• We are the keepers of our people's history. For 1,000 years we have kept the past alive. Listen well and you will hear of our plight.
• We're the descendants of the people of Palm, a planet that once circled the distant star Algo. Palm was destroyed by an evil being that haunts us every 1,000 years, bringing death and ruin. This evil incarnate is known as Dark Force!
• The people of Palm were thinkers and creators. They knew of the plans made by the evil being. When the vile Dark Force stirred 1,000 years ago, preparations were made to escape from Palm.
• Our ancestors built a fleet of 400 spaceships. This armada escaped the destruction of Palm and set off into space to find a new homeland.
• Our ancestors thought they had at last escaped from the clutches of the undying master of evil. But Dark Force managed to slip aboard a ship. It destroyed all but one of our sister ships before Orakio and Laya trapped it on Alisa III. Now there are only two ships left of our fleet: our ship, the Alisa III, and the Neo Palm.

Yaata

Townspeople (Men):

• Someone's directing the monsters and cyborgs! No Orakian or Layan can do that!

• Welcome to the bustling port city of Yaata.
• Cyborgs are attacking Orakians! What gives?

Landen

Townspeople (Men):

• Aron, welcome to Landen.
• What could have caused an earthquake like that?
• What in the world could that have been?

Townspeople (Women):

• Someone on Alisa III attacked that spaceship!

Woman Upstairs in Eastern House:

• Is it true that we were attacked by a spaceship?

Child Upstairs in Western House:

• It's a dangerous world, Aron; watch your back!

Landen Castle

Soldiers:

• Hurry back, Aron. Our land needs you.

Ilan

Townspeople (Men):

• Nothing makes sense--the world has gone crazy! Cyborgs battle Orakians; monsters fight Layans!

Townspeople (Women):

• Welcome to the island village of Ilan.

Sunken Temple

Narrator:You pull Orakio's Sword from its stone sheath. Engraved on the floor is "I hold Dark Force."

Dark Force:At last I am free of my vile bonds! Tremble, fools, for I roam the worlds again! Other matters await me, but we will meet again!

Narrator:You have learned Megido, destruction incarnate!

Aridia

Miun:The black sword! Orakio, you've returned! I'm so glad to meet you again before I...."

Sage Isle

Old Men:

• The lost word cannot be revealed until all five legendary weapons are gathered together.
• You must show us all of the legendary weapons before you learn the ancient word of power!
• Once all five of the legendary weapons were together, but now they are scattered.
• To learn the lost word, collect all the weapons!

Siren:I fought Laya many long centuries ago. I nursed my hatred and attacked Layan people. But on Sage Isle I found that the Layans are not our real enemies. I am sorry for my mistakes.

Narrator:Siren collapses.

Sage Isle (after speaking with Siren)

Old Men:

• Who knows if your puny weapons are enough?
• All the legendary weapons have been gathered for the first time in 1,000 years.

Endora

Townspeople (Men):

• Welcome to the village of Endora.
• A long time ago, I saw a wounded, one-eyed dragon fly out from Cape Dragon Spine toward the sea.

Townspeople (Women):

• The legends say that a dragon will help those trying to cross over the sea to Techna.

Techna

Townspeople (Men):

Lensol Castle

Nobles:

Soldiers:

• A long time ago, a dragon grabbed a woman out of the castle dungeon and flew away. But I managed to leave a scar on its face!

Lashute

Nobles:

• Why don't you rest a bit in this city of Lashute?
• Orakio's twin brother Rulakir is king here.
• Hatred keeps Rulakir alive after 1,000 years!

Guards:

• Rulakir lost his family in the wars long ago.
• Rulakir dreams of a peaceful world.

(The party tries to speak with Rulakir, but he is silent)

Lashute (after gaining the Nei Weapons)

Nobles:

• We wanted Siren and Lune to start another war, but we needed Rhys to bring Satellite back. And that's exactly what that old fool did!
• Centuries ago, Laya locked the passageways between the domed worlds of our ship, Alisa III. But your father and grandfather opened them up again, enabling us to spread evil once more!

Guards:

• Dark Force brings your doom, fools!
• You fools have done everything we wanted!

Rulakir:My heart went black 1,000 years ago, when my family died in the Laya-Orakio war. Dark Force owns my soul and he shall own yours!

(A battle between Rulakir and the party ensues. Rulakir is defeated.)

Rulakir:You have freed me; destroy Dark Force!

Narrator:Rulakir is dead; finally he is at peace.

(The party finds Dark Force in a chest in Lashute's dungeon.)

Dark Force:I am Dark Force, master of Death! Your sorrow, anger, and pain are my strength! Observe my might and despair of life, fools! I will greatly enjoy your painful deaths!

(A battle between Dark Force and the party ensues. Dark Force is defeated.)

Dark Force:Wasn't that ship explosion a blast? I destroyed one of the two remaining ships left out of the original 400; you're the last one now! I'll finish your ship off 1,000 years hence.

Narrator:Dark Force disappears!

(Aron casts Megido.)

Aron:This evil city is too evil to leave standing!

Narrator:Aron's anger triggered the Megido technique.

(Lashute begins to crumble.)

Wren:Megido is tearing the whole city apart!

Mieu:Hurry, we've got to get out of here!

Wren:There's no time, we'll never make it!

(Mieu casts Grantz.)

Narrator:Mieu used the Grantz technique automatically. The entire party was instantly teleported to a place of safety far from the falling city.

(Lashute falls from the sky.)

Narrator:The evil city seemed to scream a hideous cry as it fell from the sky and sank deep into the lake.

(The ship approaches a black hole.)

Mieu:Look! We're going into a black hole!

(The ship passes through and appears near a new planet.)

Kara:We were knocked out by that collision.

Wren:The stars aren't in the right places. We were transported across space and time when we went through the black hole's surface.

Mieu:We're getting a message from a planet that orbits the star ahead of us....

Voice:Greetings, alien craft! Identify yourselves. This is the London Communications Center on Earth of the Sol system. Over and out.
