Wren:We're approaching the Satellite.

Dahlia

(The shuttle lands on Dahlia.)

Laya:Satellite is just another spaceship!

(The party finds Lune in the dungeon.)

Lune:You Orakians have invaded my domain! Orakio banished us here almost 1,000 years ago. Cryogenics has kept me alive for centuries, waiting for revenge. Now my revenge is at hand!

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

Lune:I'm surprised that you don't just kill me. Laya's Pendant! You must be Laya's little sister! I have no wish to fight you. The war is at an end! I'll recall my armies; at last I am at peace!

Narrator:Nial's quest has ended. The threat from Lune's monster armies is over.

Lune:Nial, thank you for rescuing my sister. I have been told that you have a tough choice. Both Alair and Laya wish to marry you!
