Tales of Vesperia Part #6 - To the Road Ahead

Part 6: To the Road Ahead

Watch the cutscene!

*Sigh* It's already morning. I wasted an entire night.

Looks like it led to the royal quarter.

Everything looks so different from the windows of the castle.

Ah, come on. You sound like this is your first time out of the castle.

...Uh, well, I...

I guess a lady who lives in a castle can't just take a walk outside whenever she wants.

Y-yes, you're right.

Um. Was that not right?

Nah... It's fine. So Estellise, what are you gonna do now that you're out?

I'm going to find Flynn.

Do you know where he went?

The other day, he said he was going off on a knight's pilgrimage.

Ohh, that thing. Going around the cities of the empire piling up good deeds?

Yes. That's why I'm going to the City of Blossoms, Halure. Halure is the first place that knights traditionally visit on a pilgrimage.

So you'll need to go outside the barrier.

Little while back. I'd like to go but I can't just leave the lower quarter like it is.

Come on. I'll show you the way out of town. It's on the way to the lower quarter.

Thank you!

We start walking back to the lower quarter. About halfway, we hear some familiar voices.

Watch the cutscene!

The jig is up!

W-what should we do?

Then go like this!

Let's get to the lower quarter.

Just a few steps down to the lower quarter, where we meet Hanks again.

Watch the cutscene!

I got an invitation to the castle and had the most marvelous time.

Of all the... And who's the young lady?

The pleasure is all mine, Miss.

Er, more importantly, about those Imperial Knights. They've been so busy looking for you, they haven't paid any attention to our fiasco down here.

So you've really managed to tick them off, huh?

It looks that way. Has Repede come back yet?

Sure did, and he was carrying some bag.

What happened to it?

It should be up in your room.

Go pick it up later. Give it a shake. It has a nice jingle to it. Mordio liked it too.

You met Mr. Mordio?

..."Left town?" Then that means...we've been hoodwinked.

Afraid so. His house was empty, and I doubt he's even a real noble.

...I see.

Well, without a core it won't budge.

Is there enough water for the time being?

Yeah, but it won't last long. After that, we'll just get it from the river. Get the runs, though.

And the Knights aren't going to help. Guess I'll go get it back from the thief myself.

What? You aren't thinking of following Mordio beyond the barrier, are ya?

Don't worry. I'll be back before you know it.

Humph. Who's worried? It's a good opportunity for ya. No need for ya to hurry back here.

Huh? What do you mean by that?

What I mean is, we can get along just fine without you. Even Flynn used to say, "I wonder how long Yuri plans on living this life."

Flynn needs to learn to mind his own business.

Well, that's our cue. Looks like I won't be coming back here for a while.

Never a dull moment with Yuri around. After this, I'll be even with you for getting that money back.

Just make sure you don't kick the bucket blowing it all on some crazy party.

Heh, same to you. See that you don't go dying in any ditches.

Wait for me! It was nice to meet you, sir.

He'll probably be quite a pain in the neck. You make sure and take care of yourself, now.

I will. Thank you.

On Hanks' command, a couple residents start swarming in on Leblanc to stop him.

Resident B: Hey cool, a knight!
Resident C: Hooray! Hooray!

Won't you help this old man find his dentures?

Unfortunately, the commotion seems to have attracted a ton of more people.

Resident D: Don't you make her cry!

Resident E: This might come in handy if you're going to Halure.

Obtained World Map!

Resident E: What did you expect? It's better than nothing considering people don't normally leave the city. You'll have to fill in the empty spaces on your own. First off, you should head for Deidon Hold to the north.

Obtained Orange Gel x4, Melange Gel x4, Life Bottle x4, Bread x4, and Egg x2!

Orange Gels heal 30% of your TP, Melange Gels heal 30% of both your HP and TP. The point of Bread and Eggs will become obvious soon.
