I think I'll go back to the Bone Fortress to see if there's any clues about Drakonis's true motives. Better take Lisa along in case I need backup, as who knows what other nasty tricks that place has.

Something feels off here...

Huh, what's happening here?
![](13-011.png)
![](14-012.png)
The Deathbringer's back! Suppose I shall kill him again!

Ack, that's a nasty attack.

Leave it to the little girl to finish off the fearsome undead emperor.
![](24-021.png)
Alright, now to investigate before he comes back again.

![](27-023.png)
Hm, looks like an undead. I still don't fully understand how an undead being is born like any other creature, but I'll go with it.
![](28-024.png)
![](29-025.png)
Besides, I'd imagine an undead creature would have some decent powers, so it couldn't hurt having one on my team!
Hmmm... Nothing else here but Jinn spirits. A few coins, but nothing very useful here. Guess this was a dead end after all. Guess I'll go back home and plan my next move.

I need to take a break from this dragon and faerie business. Perhaps seek Watts to learn to better forge my weapons, and to train a bit more with my spear.

![](32-027.png)
Huh, what's Pokiehl doing here again?

...What the heck is he going on about?

Escad? It looks like him, yet he's certainly not that young.

Is this a flashback of sorts? What he described is what happened in the past.
Guess I'll press further.
![](43-045.png)
![](44-046.png)
The mines are pretty much the same as they are now, though I see no sign of Watts. I guess Pokiehl wants me to see the past to better understand the current situation, so onward I go.

Wonder where he teleported me.

Between the guy's looks, the girl's clothes, and their knowledge of Escad, perhaps these two are none other than Matilda and Irwin of ten years ago?

Better fight on and learn what else I can!

Ugh... Was that what happened?
![](73-094.gif)
Escad? Is this the present?
![](74-095.png)
I guess I am. So that is how that played out. That said, I'm still a bit confused.

But I haven't chosen a-
![](79-101.png)
Oh, so that's how you want to play it.

![](80-103.png)
You may have skill with that blade, but your heavy, slow sword is no match for the speed and range of my spear!
![](81-104.png)
For instance, see how ineffective your dark attacks are when I'm not close enough to be hit by them.
![](82-105.png)
And now let me show you how one fights when trained not by the ruler of the Underworld, but under the guidance of the Goddess Herself.
![](83-106.png)
![](84-107.png)
![](85-108.png)
No matter how valiant you act, your intentions are just as selfish as any other person. You lack an open mind, blinded so much by your hatred for Irwin. He's not destroying the world because of his blood.
![](86-109.png)
That is why you'd never be able to defeat him.
![](87-110.png)
As for your earlier question...I've made my choice.
