~ The Queen Returns ~
Truce Inn
|
That’ll be 10 G. Register? • Yes. » (Crono sleeps) • No. » (nothing happens) |
|
"Where am I?" Are you stupid? THIS is the kingdom of Guardia! We’re
battling Magus’s army. You DID know that, right? • Of course. » Then shut your pie hole! • No. » Lovely… We NEED more ignorant strangers around here… |
|
Millennial Fair? What? Are you crazy?! What nonsense! |
|
#1: What a relief! They finally found Queen Leene wandering up
in the mountains! She must be glad to be home!
The Queen has been through a lot! She’s babbling
about the oddest thing. #2: Everyone was worried! The King freaked when the Queen took off. We all thought Magus had grabbed her. Thank goodness she’s safe! |
|
Are you a stranger here, too? I’m Toma, the explorer. If you’re
buying, I’ll tell you a story. How about it? • Sure. » Cider please! Thanks! It’s about the missing Queen. She disappeared while visiting that cathedral to the west, and… Beg your pardon? WHAT?! They FOUND her? Never mind… (if Crono talks to him again) I was sure there was something fishy about that cathedral… • No. » So, you think I’m a beggar, huh?! Well, scram! |
|
The Magus’s Army destroyed Zenan Bridge, so the south continent is inaccessible. |
Residence
|
I’m Banta, the blacksmith. I’m forging a bell for the King to present to his beloved Queen Leene! I lost it when the Queen disappeared. I just couldn’t keep working on the bell. But now it’s back to business as usual! |
|
My husband wants a daughter who is as intelligent as she is beautiful. |
Market
|
You’re going to fight Magus’s army? Wonderful! But remember to equip yourself with the weapons you buy! |
|
No window shoppers! Whaddaya want? (after sale) Thanks. See ya. |
Residence
|
A Millennial Fair? Here? What ARE you talking about? It’s the year 600, and the 21st King of Guardia reigns. |
|
We’ve been at war for years. When will it end? |
Zenan Bridge
|
This bridge is being fixed because Magus’s Army trashed it. But until Sir Cyrus returns, we’ll fight Magus’s Army, tooth and nail! |
Guardia Castle
|
Halt! Who goes there! Check out that hair! Where’re you from, son? Are you one of Magus’s troopers? Hardly! This kid never would have made the cut! Show us your stamp collection, son! Har, har! Now beat it, shrimp! |
|
Stop that at once! |
|
Queen Leene! |
|
Show your manners! This is a friend of mine! |
|
But there’s something odd about him! |
|
You refuse to obey my orders?! |
|
Forgive me, my lady! Please enter, Sir! |
|
Giggle… |
|
#1: Please pardon us! We revere our Queen’s guests!
#2: I envy you, whom the Queen calls friend! |
|
#1: King Guardia the XXI is in the throne room.
#2: Mind your manners! |
|
Hmmm… (leaves) |
|
Sir! I understand that you are the one who saved my dear wife, the Queen! But can you tell me what happened? Leene’s acting rather odd. And she seems to have lost her coral pin, which is something she guarded with her life… Forgive me! You must be tired. We can talk about this later. Please rest in the Knight’s quarters, downstairs, to the left. |
|
#1: The Queen seems to be waiting for you upstairs in her room.
#2: The King’s room is upstairs. The Knights’ quarters are downstairs, to the left. |
King's Chambers
|
Hmmm… What do you want? Get out of my face! |
|
#1: Just between us, the Chancellor’s been acting VERY strange
lately. He’s been sneakin’ out at night…
#2: Speaking of nut cases, I haven’t seen the Queen’s guard, that frog-thing, recently. Heard a spell turned him into a frog. Do you believe that? I think he’s a spy! |
|
People say the Chancellor’s gone crazy, but I won’t believe
it. The Chancellor’s a decent man. Why, he goes to the cathedral everyday. |
Queen's Chambers
|
The Queen awaits. |
|
The Queen married into the family 10 years ago. She still looks so youthful! In fact, she looks even younger now than on her wedding day… |
|
YOU saved our Queen? You don’t look that tough. |
|
Ah! There you are. Please leave us. I need to talk to this individual. |
|
Certainly, your Highness. |
|
(Crono steps forward) Giggle… Fooled you, didn’t I, Crono? It’s me! But everyone calls me, Leene! I’m so relieved you’re here! We barely know each other, but somehow I knew you’d come for me… Thank you, Crono! (room is enveloped by green light) S, something’s wrong!!! W, what’s happening?! It feels like…I’m being torn apart! Help me, Crono! I’m scared!!! Please…Crono …h, help me! (Marle disappears) |
|
Has she dismissed you already? You were polite, of course? You didn’t
do anything…funny, did you? • Of course not! » Are you sure? • Well…yes. » Oooh! We can’t let this juicy tidbit out of the castle! |
|
Did you notice anything odd about the Queen? • Yes. » Just as I thought! She claims she’s not Leene! There’s something…different about her. Don’t mention this to anyone! • No. » Okay, if you say so. |
|
…I grow so tired of the gossip around here! |
Leaving the Queen's Chambers
|
Crono! Huff, puff…you’re okay! Did you find the girl? (pause) GONE?! Whadd’ya mean she’s gone?! Hmm…it’s just as I thought. I knew I recognized her! And this looks identical to the castle in OUR time! I’ll bet they mistook that girl for her ancestor… You see, she’s a member of the royal family in OUR time! She’s Princess Nadia! Marle, that is, Princess Nadia, is a descendent of Queen Leene! Queen Leene has been kidnapped. As I recall, someone was supposed to have saved her. But history has been changed! Marle looks so much like Leene, that they probably called off their searches when she appeared here. But if the real Queen is killed… … Marle will simply disappear. There might still be time! If we can save Leene, history as we know it should remain unchanged! Something must have happened to the Queen in this era. As a result, Princess Nadia ceases to exist! Hurry! We have to find the real Queen! |
Knight's Quarters
|
#1: Go downstairs if you want to rest.
#2: The Knight’s quarters is downstairs. |
|
Magus’s troops are strangely quiet… Something’s about to happen. |
|
#1: Oh! If only Sir Cyrus were here! You’ve heard of him,
haven’t you? • Yes. » If HE were here, this whole mess with the Queen would never have happened • No. » You don’t know of Sir Cyrus?! From which land do you come? Or are you simply a fool? #2: Long ago, a beast called Yakra lurked in the western forest. But after the cathedral was built, Yakra disappeared. We’re thankful for that. #3: Sir Cyrus was the Commander of the Knights. His mission was to protect the King and Queen. He and a friend left on a journey 10 years ago. No one has heard from them since. #4: What a relief, the Queen’s been found. Now we can concentrate on the war! |
|
Zenan Bridge is our last line defense! We MUST guard it with our lives! So you’re the one who helped the Queen. Talk to the maid if you need to rest. |
|
Take a snooze? • Yes. » (Crono rests) • No. » (nothing happens) |
Dining Hall
|
#1: The dining room’s below.
#2: The chef’s got a nasty temper, so don’t get in his way! |
|
#1: This dining room is for us soldiers. Feel free to grab a bite.
#2: Magus’s troops had better watch out for us! #3: The chef’s food is great. I give it 3 stars. |
|
I… I’m hungry… |
|
Here’s your food! |
|
All right! (eats) This is great! |
|
(as Crono exits Captain enters) Where’s supper? |
|
Oh, Captain! I’m sorry… |
|
We’re fighting a war out there! Can’t you even keep us fed? |
|
What are you fussing about? You’re not the only one who’s fighting out there! |
|
Hey, I don’t have time for this. Just feed my men, okay? (leaves) |
|
Shut your trap! I’ll decide who’s going to get fed, and when!! |
|
The Knight Captain is trying hard to fill the shoes of his predecessor, Sir Cyrus, Commander of the Knights. |
|
The Knight Captain is normally very kind. The chef just rubs him the wrong way. |
|
So! YOU saved Queen Leene!
(following line added after Captain's visit) The chef’s stubborn, but he’s a good man |
|
This place is a mini war zone! (following line added after Captain's visit) My husband chose this life because he’s a pacifist. |
|
This is no place for kids! Wait! Maybe you’d know! What’s this "Eyes Cream" stuff that Queen Leene wants so badly? (following line added after Captain's visit) That fool…he thinks HE’S the boss! |
|
Hungry? Sit down at the upper left corner of the left table. (Crono does)
What will you have? Just a sec, okay? (gets food) Here you go! (following line added after Captain's visit) Those two are brothers. You’ve heard the expression, "sibling rivalry," right? |
