Grandis: It is as it ever was. Enemies abound, but we hold firm against those who would wreak havoc upon our home. I shall soon rekindle the flames of the Great Forge and cast our defences anew.
Lune: You use weapons?
Grandis: Of a sort. Between the wrongs of deception and violence, we have chosen the lesser evil. We are well-versed in methods of misdirection through the skillful application of sound. As you have surely seen with the bell we gifted to our furry Gestral friend oh so long ago. Perhaps some of our designs might be of use in your journey? Perhaps we can help each other. I am developing something that will greatly increase our chances of survival and will undoubtedly aid you in battle as well. I require one final ingredient, the eternal Ice, a type of ice that never melts. You can find some not far from here, within the depths of the glacial mountains. Retrieve the Eternal Ice and, for a fair price, I will use it to augment your defenses. What say you?
Lune: That’s an interesting offer.
Grandis: I must warn you, the path to Frozen Hearts will not be easy. Many threats await you there. So I wish you good luck.
Lune: Look, this Nevron is MADE of Eternal Ice.
Sciel: That’s why it was so rough.
Lune: Let’s take the Eternal Ice back to Monoco’s Station.
Grandis: You have the Eternal Ice. A perfect specimen, no less.
Lune: Getting this was not easy.
Grandis: I imagine not! The Nevrons there are quite lethal. Wonderful, wonderful, let us craft the ultimate defence. My work is complete. Here. Have a look.
