Part 116: Post-Intermission
: Besides which, he took his research sample and slipped out of the base in the confusion...
: (.........): Looks like we'll get better information from Gallia, the Innocent's main base of power.: Indeed. But before that, there's something I'd like to take...: Oh, yes. Alright then, Brother... Let us head for the next stage.[SCENE CHANGE]
: Caris... Hold on...
: Tifa... I was a fool... But I'm glad you're okay...
: Caris! C'mon, pull yourself together!
: Not good! He's fading fast! Get him to the Freeden, quickly![SCENE CHANGE]
: My, my... I wasn't expecting you to come in pairs.
: How's he... How's Caris holding up?: Don't worry, his life's in no danger, though it will be a while before he fully recovers.: Thank goodness...: But...: What... Is there something else?: Well, actually...[Some time passes...]
: Synapse Syndrome?: Yes. You could call it the price of becoming an artificial Newtype... He should have experienced intense headaches on a monthly cycle.: Headaches? You mean, back then, it could've been... That's... Did he even...?: He seems to have been aware of it... He's been ranting deliriously.: (So they suffer the same burdens as Cyber Newtypes...): It's the heavy cross he bears, having embraced the illusion of Newtypes...: No... That's not it.: Garrod...: When I lost to him and Tifa got abducted... I wanted Newtype powers, too. Everyone wants power. The same thing applies to anyone else...!: Garrod...: At any rate... I can give him emergency care, but it wouldn't be safe to keep him on board the Freeden. He needs total rest.: Then, what should we do?: I'll leave him with a doctor I know, someone reliable. We can await his recovery there.[SCENE CHANGE]
: What is it, Tifa?: When I was in Fort Severn with Caris... There was another woman there...: A woman?
: Rosamy!? Tifa, is that true!?: Yes...: Where is she now!?: I think she was taken someplace by Mayor Nomoa...: N-no... And just when we thought Caris was saved... This time it's Rosamy...!?
