3 3 301 DialogEnable The Polyphage's silhouette becomes more apparent the further you follow Lamia down underground. The closer you are, the more its colossal size becomes evident, as well as the malevolence that seeps in.
4 4 301 Eventually, there is only a rift standing between the Polyphage and you. Below it, the Red Tide roils and crashes to the sides of the cliff.

6 6 301 1 Lamia Hmph... This is where I come in. After all, you wouldn't be able to pull this off... 1
7 7 301 The Punishing Virus crystalized under Lamia's command, forming a bridge that connects the rift, even if it only fits one person at a time.

10 10 301 1 Lee Stop bragging. Get to work unless you want a bullet in you. 2
11 11 301 Lamia A small compliment wouldn't hurt... Did you see how hard I've been trying to help you? 1
12 12 301 Lee I'm not buying it. There's no way you'll genuinely help us. 2
13 13 301 Lamia Hehe, after all, I'm just a poor little fish in your leash. I'd do anything you tell me to. 1
14 14 301 Lamia I'd rather live than be eaten alive by the Polyphage. 1
15 15 301 Lamia nods while maintaining her control on the bridge.

19 19 301 Lamia Well, I didn't want to be eaten... So I escaped. 1
20 20 301 Lamia But consuming Miss Luna has given it more than enough power... Now we all get to be desserts... 1
21 21 302 How can we stop the Polyphage? 22

23 23 301 1 Liv I'm afraid the only way is to get Luna out of there... Or... 1
24 24 301 Liv falls silent. What she meant to say is plain as day.

27 27 301 1 Lucia Lee, Liv, can you take Commandant back to the surface and call for reinforcement? 2
28 28 301 Lee ...Why? 1
29 29 301 Lucia If you take Lamia with you, she should be able to help you bypass the signal blockade and reach Babylonia. 2
30 30 301 Lee ...Are you trying to get us out of here? 1

33 33 301 1 Liv Lucia, what about you?! 1

35 35 301 1 Lucia Someone has to hold off the Polyphage. With how powerful it's become, it will be countless lives spared if I can just hold it back for a few seconds. 1
36 36 301 Lucia Besides, Luna is still inside there. I... 1

40 40 301 1 Lee Then we go together. 2
41 41 301 Lucia ...I'm the leader of Gray Raven. Doing so is too risky, and... irrational. I will not put Commandant and you in danger for my judgment. 1
42 42 302 That is why... 43
43 43 302 You need us. 44

46 46 301 1 Lee Commandant's right. What's irrational is splitting up in the face of that. 1
47 47 301 Lee If it were a strategic decision, I would have accepted it without question and given it my all. 1
48 48 301 Lee But it's not the right move here, and you're clearly doing so because you thought this is just your burden to carry. I'm not going to allow that. 1
49 49 201 1 500166
50 50 301 1 Lucia I... 1
51 51 201 1 500026
52 52 301 1 Lee You might be the leader here, and we're supposed to follow your orders, but—we are also your friends. 1

55 55 301 1 Liv Just like what Lee said, Lucia. 2
56 56 301 Liv We still don't know our way around here. We could easily get into trouble on our way back. 2

58 58 301 Liv Besides, Gray Raven is at its best when we are together, right? 2

61 61 301 1 Lucia ...I understand. Thank you. 1

63 63 301 1 Lee That's what we're here for. 1
64 64 201 1 500165 1
65 65 301 1 Lamia Hehe... Such a touching display of camaraderie! I'm so jealous! 1
66 66 301 Lamia But I'm also pretty fed up. 1
