Phantasy Star III Complete Script (Sean)

Third Generation

The Adventures of Sean, Prince of Azura

(Ayn chooses to marry Thea.)

Narrator:Ayn asked Thea to be his wife and she accepted. Lyle and Rhys gave their blessings as well. Ayn and Thea began their new life on far Azura. Their rule brought peace and prosperity to all. In time, Queen Thea gave birth to a son, Sean. When he reached manhood, evil arose once more; Sean was called upon to fight for his people....

Azura

(A soldier approaches the throne of King Ayn.)

Soldier:King Ayn! Something is happening on Alisa III! I thought I saw a flash of light go past us! Another one hit us! It's causing explosions!

(A series of laser blasts comes from Alisa III and hits Azura. Explosions begin to rock the small moon.)

Soldier:This satellite's going to blow up--get out!

Ayn:Sean, our beautiful moon is being destroyed! Your mother and I cannot bear to leave our home. Take the shuttle and save yourself, my son. Journey to Landen, your grandfather's homeland.

Thea:I'm staying with Ayn, but you must go. Mieu and Wren will go with you. Farewell!

(Sean resists, but Wren drags him to the shuttle. Mieu is with them.)

Wren:Sean, hurry! You must escape!

(The shuttle takes off as more blasts hit Azura and the satellite is destroyed. The shuttle then lands in the desert of Aridia.)

Mieu:We're lucky to be alive after that crash! We must try to make it to Landen, Sean.

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!

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.

Yaata

Townspeople (Men):

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

Townspeople (Women):

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

Landen

Townspeople (Men):

• The people of Landen welcome you, Sean.
• I hear that some cyborgs have turned against us!
• Who would want to destroy Azura?

Townspeople (Women):

• Sari protected us from Lune's monstrous army. Lune was once Laya's most trusted general. But Orakio banished Lune to the far moon, Dahlia. No one knows how Lune survived for so long.

Woman Upstairs in Eastern House:

• If Ayn had married Sari, we might have won.

Child Upstairs in Western House:

• Lune is coming! Run for your lives! Aieeeee!

Landen Castle

Nobles:

• Lune's army has built a bridge over the river. He is looking for Laya's Treasure in Aridia.
• Sari has countered every one of Lune's attacks. Thank Orakio for Sari! Lune can't beat her!

Soldiers:

• You're the only descendant of Orakio left!
• The western part of this world belongs to Lune. If you head that way, be very careful!

Sari:We must end this war before more die. With Laya's Treasure we can stop the fighting. To find Laya's Treasure, use an ancient machine that can be found in the world to the southwest.

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.

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.

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.

Whirlpool

Wren:Let's see where this passage goes!

(Wren transforms into submersible mode and dives.)

Narrator:This is a world within the world of Aridia.

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:I was very young when Laya fought Orakio. She left with a knight who wore a black sword. I must know the truth. Please take me along!

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.

Mystoke Castle

(The party finds Laya's Pendant and uses it.)

Narrator:A voice rings out for all of you to hear: "Sister, it is time for you to know the truth. Though Orakio and I have fought for many years, we finally realize that we have been deceived. An evil force from times beyond legend is using us to satisfy its desire for pain and suffering. We are joining forces to fight this ancient evil. In case we never return, I leave you the pendant; you will hear this when you are ready. Goodbye!"

Aerone

Townspeople (Men):

• Only vast power could have blasted Azura.

Townspeople (Old Men):

• The explosion of Azura lit up the sky!

Townspeople (Women):

• Welcome to Aerone, the last home of the pilots. East on this path leads to the moon, Dahlia.
• The beam that struck the moon Azura came from a dome that is said to be a barren land of terror.

Dahlia

Soldiers:

• Be warned, strangers, Lune is very depressed.
• The aero parts for that Wren are in the dungeon.
• Down the stairs are the aero parts for the Wren. Use them to reach the sky city on Frigidia. There you may find the strength to combat evil.

Lune:I'm Lune; I once fought in Laya's army. Orakio banished me here almost 1,000 years ago. For centuries I bided my time in cryogenic sleep. I recently awoke and decided to take revenge. But now I regret the trouble I have caused.

Alair:I'm Alair, Lune's sister. I also have been frozen in a cryogenics pod for 1,000 years. When I woke up, I was kidnapped by Orakians. Of course, that made my brother more furious. Yes, we were the ones who destroyed Satera. But we're not behind the recent monster attacks. We hope you can forgive us for our past errors.

Kara:Father's too weak to fight. I must do it! Father, please lend me your Lune Slicer!

Narrator:Kara joins your party.

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.

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...."

Narrator:Miun collapses.

Rysel

Townspeople (Women):

• Your grandfather once saved the folk of Rysel.

Child Upstairs in Technique Shop:

• Laya's lands across the sea are now gone.

Agoe

Townspeople (Old Men):

• Long ago, I met a one-eyed knight named Lyle.

Townspeople (Women):

• Agoe, the land of swordsmen, is peaceful.

Agoe Castle

Soldiers:

• Visit Sage Isle in this dome-world.

Nobles:

Sage Isle

Old Men:

• People call this place Sage Isle.
• 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:

• People call this place Sage Isle.
• Who knows if your puny weapons are enough?
• All the legendary weapons have been gathered for the first time in 1,000 years.
• You are worthy to hear the ancient word spoken.
• The ancient word of power is the word "Nei." We now give the Grantz technique to Mieu.

Sage Isle (after hearing the word Nei)

Old Men:

• People call this place Sage Isle.
• Untold suffering awaits us all if you fail.
• Orakio's twin brother turned into a fiend.
• Return to Skyhaven to empower your weapons.
• Go now and fulfill your destiny!

Endora

Townspeople (Men):

• This is the village of Endora. Welcome!
• I remember those cyborgs from long ago!

Townspeople (Women):

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

Techna

Townspeople (Men):

• Beneath this world-dome is our ship's engine! We're the descendants of the ship's technicians.

Townspeople (Women):

• The Castle of Power is a good name for Techna.

Man Upstairs in Weapon Shop:

• The descendants of the spaceship's pilots live on the other side of this spaceship.

Lensol

Townspeople (Old Men):

• We welcome you to Lensol, travelers.
• We've always assumed our enemies were Layan, but I think we've been wrong all these years.

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)

Narrator:Waves of blackness wash over you.

Skyhaven (after hearing the word "Nei")

Cyborgs:

• We welcome you to the Castle of Skyhaven.
• My masters await you within the castle.

Old Men:

• You may indeed be ready for the task ahead.
• Nei is the word of ultimate power.
• Use the Nei weapons to destroy Dark Force.
• Equip yourselves with the Nei weapons.
• Our task is over; yours truly begins now.

Lashute (after gaining the Nei Weapons)

Nobles:

• Your death awaits you in this city of Lashute!
• 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:I regret smashing only one moon. Never fear, I'll return again in 1,000 years; you'll be dead, but I'll visit your descendants! It'll be a merry reunion all around, I promise!

Narrator:Dark Force disappears!

(Sean casts Megido.)

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

Narrator:Sean'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.

(A second spaceship appears near Alisa III.)

Mieu:Look! A spaceship that's just like ours! It must be the other surviving spaceship.

Wren:That spaceship is sending us a message.

Voice:Hello Alisa III. This is the spaceship Neo Palm. That explosion earlier attracted our attention. We guessed that Dark Force had arisen again and we came over to lend any help you needed. Since you're still here, we assume you've won. In 1,000 years, Dark Force will arise again. Let's get rid of it for good next time!
