The Reverie (Dreamscape)

(Approach Mr. Bigwig): Mr. Bigwig: Woof! There you are! I've been waiting for you!; Mr. Bigwig: I told them we wouldn't be at the lounge today! Now we can do whatever we want!; Sounds great. What's your plan?; Let's focus on our investigation...; Mr. Bigwig: No worries! Soda Doggo will always be your most reliable partner!; Mr. Bigwig: Although I've never left the hotel, my handsome and keen nose will lead us straight to Siobhan! Woof!; Mr. Bigwig: Woof! I hear that Golden Hour is huge and crowded, so stick close and don't get lost!

Golden Hour

(While following Mr. Bigwig): Mr. Bigwig: This way, woof!; Mr. Bigwig: Woof! I'm smelling something weird...

(Approach Sparkle)

Sparkle: Hey, guys... walking your dog, huh? He looks so happy, hee-hee! You know, I think he's the one taking you for a walk!

...What are you doing here?

Sparkle: I'm going wherever I want! Plus, the Dreamscape is a mess, and I've got mountains of clean-up tasks to do.

Have we met somewhere?

Sparkle: Huh? Nah, I don't think so. I look like a lot of people, so you must be mistaking me for someone else.

Mr. Bigwig: Woof! We've got something super important to do!

Sparkle: Yeah, yeah. Talking dog, so cute. I'll bring you a gift next time, but for now, I've got work to do, so I'm outta here.

Step Description

Meet up with Mr. Bigwig to search for Siobhan. Mr. Bigwig has arrived at the wrong place... but let's continue following it.

Golden Hour

(While following Mr. Bigwig): Mr. Bigwig: Woof! Look at all the shiny stuff! And so many people! It's so lively out there!

(Approach Black Swan): Mr. Bigwig: Woof! So that's Clockie! This place is so spacious, perfect for a game of floatdisc!; Mr. Bigwig: Oh, I almost forgot! L—Let's find Siobhan first! Woof... so many scents mixed up here...; Black Swan: ...Are you looking for me?; Black Swan: Chill out. Just kidding. You seem a little troubled. How about I draw a fortune card for you?; ...What does that mean?; What's your plan?; Black Swan: Just doing you a favor and returning the favor. Well, it's done.; Mr. Bigwig: Woof! I've caught Siobhan's scent! Let's go!; Black Swan: Now, go. Seize the opportunity before it slips away.

Step Description

Meet up with Mr. Bigwig to search for Siobhan. Mr. Bigwig has arrived at the wrong place, but fortunately, Black Swan pointed you on the right path... Continue following Mr. Bigwig.

Golden Hour

(Approach Siobhan and Amiky): Mr. Bigwig: Woof! Look, it's Siobhan! And the person next to her... I think I've met her before...; Mr. Bigwig: Hey, it's the baddie who tried to take Siobhan away from the lounge! How did they end up together!?; Mr. Bigwig: Woof, woof! I'll drag Siobhan back!; Hold up! Not so fast!; You don't want Siobhan to be mad at you, right?; Mr. Bigwig: Woof... then let's sneak over and eavesdrop on their conversation!

Amiky: As I said, staying at that rundown lodge is a total waste of your talent!

Amiky: If you had just listened to me earlier, you wouldn't be in this mess... Lucky for you, The Family Head is in a good mood, so I'll take you to see her. Just be careful with what you say.

Siobhan: ...Don't worry. You haven't forgotten who taught you the basics of acting, have you? I will be careful.

Amiky: Hmph, good to know. And don't spend all day obsessing over those monsters of yours. I'll handle them. Now let's get going.

Mr. Bigwig: Woof...

...

Are you okay?

Mr. Bigwig: Woof... Let's... let's head back... woof...

Return to the lounge

Step Description

You didn't expect to see Siobhan and Amiky. From their conversation, it seems like Siobhan has plans to return to The Family. Mr. Bigwig becomes despondent. It is time to break this news to the other monsters in the lounge.

The Reverie (Dreamscape)

(Approach Melancholy, Spade, Lady and Starlet): Lady: Hey, you're back! I was so worried about you guys!; Mr. Bigwig: Woof! Siobhan... she doesn't want us anymore... Boohoooo!; Spade: Mwahahahaha! What nonsense are you talking about, silly dog? You think you can fool us... with that pathetic tiny brain of yours?; Mr. Bigwig: Woof! I'm telling the truth! The drinksmith saw it too...; Mr. Bigwig: Siobhan... She left with the baddie who showed up at the lounge last time! She doesn't want to stay here anymore!; Melancholy: Oh, my god! ...Lies, nothing but lies! Trust has never existed from the beginning...; Starlet: Is that true?; ...; Yes.; Starlet: ...; Tin Man: Don't just stand there. There are troublemakers out there everywhere!

Bloodhound Family Member: Watch out. These monsters are feral and aggressive. Don't let your guard down.

Stop it!

They won't hurt anyone!

Bloodhound Family Member: What the heck? Why is there a human in this hellhole?

Bloodhound Family Member: We've been ordered to wipe out all the monsters in the hotel in the Dreamscape. Let's just do our job.

Mr. Bigwig: Woof! This is our lounge! We won't let any baddies do anything bad!

(Trailblazer): (...No time to explain. I've got to stop them first!)

(Begin battle against Dreamjolt Troupe's Spring Loader ×2, Dreamjolt Troupe's Mr. Domescreen ×1, Dreamjolt Troupe's Bubble Hound ×2): Bloodhound Family Member: It's our duty to keep this Dreamscape safe!; Bloodhound Family Member: Get rid of all the monsters here. Don't leave anyone behind!

(Wave 2: Dreamjolt Troupe's Mr. Domescreen ×3, Dreamjolt Troupe's Bubble Hound ×1, Dreamjolt Troupe's Birdskull ×1)

(After the battle): Bloodhound Family Member: No way... This gray-hair is way too tough...; Bloodhound Family Member: Phew... What the heck are you doing!? You're helping those monsters fight against us! Are you nuts!?; Everyone, calm down...; They really won't hurt anyone.; Bloodhound Family Member: Are you kidding me? Stop talking nonsense!; Bloodhound Family Member: Dreamjolt Troupe is just a bunch of monsters! They roam around and attack people, and many guests have been attacked. And now you're saying they're safe? No one will believe that nonsense.; Bloodhound Family Member: Moreover, they're just animated objects to entertain guests. They can be easily replaced. Is it really worth all this trouble to protect them?; I...; No, they're not just objects.; Bloodhound Family Member: Enough with your naive kindness. Can you take responsibility if someone gets hurt because of those monsters?; Bloodhound Family Member: What's more, they're corrupted by the Nightmare. Even if they seem harmless now, they'll show their true colors at the slightest provocation. Monsters are monsters, beyond redemption.; Bloodhound Family Member: I'll give you one last chance to think it over.; After leaving a few harsh words, the Bloodhound Family members take their leave for now. You can clearly hear sobbing from behind you.

Siobhan: ...What's going on here?

Siobhan: Those hounds... they've been here? I'll contact the head of the Bloodhound Family right away.

Starlet: That's not the most urgent problem now, Siobhan.

Starlet: ...You should check on them first.

Spade: They... they wanted to capture all of us, and they said... that we're just a bunch of worthless trash...

Spade: What should we do? Boohoo... It's so scary... They'll lock us in and lash us like hell!

Melancholy: ...Despair is clutching my heart, so stifling. I'm about to suffocate!

Lady: It's too much to handle! They said mean things and even hurt Tin Man!

Tin Man: I'll fight those scoundrels no matter what!

Mr. Bigwig: Woof... Siobhan, are you gonna... abandon us...?

Mr. Bigwig: That's why you sent those baddies to get rid of us... right?

Siobhan: What nonsense are you even talking about!? I never wanted to abandon you guys.

Mr. Bigwig: But I heard it all, woof! I heard everything you guys talked about!

Mr. Bigwig: You want to go back to The Family... and continue your former career... We're nothing but unruly monsters, just a burden to you.

Mr. Bigwig: Woof... we can't do anything useful... We bicker all day long... and we may lose control anytime... so you have to stay in this lounge forever.

Mr. Bigwig: That's why you hired a new drinksmith! You've been thinking about leaving a while now!!

Siobhan: No. I hired (Trailblazer) because...

Starlet: Their emotions are too intense to be calmed down by words.

Starlet: If we don't handle it well, they might go into a frenzy again.

Siobhan: ...

Amiky: What's wrong? You used to be so articulate, but when it really matters, why don't you say anything?

Amiky: Is it because you're afraid of saying the wrong thing and making them even angrier?

Siobhan: Amiky... just shut up.

Amiky: Hmm? Don't think you can order me around. I'm not listening.

Amiky: Back then, there was a fool who gave up her acting career to become a drinksmith, and she always said with confidence that "Drinksmith is an art of communication."

Amiky: Now that you're a drinksmith, why don't you solve the problem the best way you know how?

Siobhan: ...

Siobhan: Could you please make me a drink now, (Trailblazer)?

No problem.

I'm happy to help.

Siobhan: Make me your best drink... or one that you think suits me best right now. We've known each other for quite a while now. So, what do you think is the drink that fits me best?

Siobhan: I'm looking forward to your answer.

(Start preparing the drink)

Make me something that you think best suits me.

Siobhan: Heh, what an intriguing flavor.

Siobhan: ...Time is limited, so I'll be straightforward.

Siobhan: I'll remove the protection for my heart. During this time, please use your powers to let everyone know how I'm really feeling.

Siobhan: I won't hide anything anymore. You'll all see the real me... the authentic me.

Siobhan: ...

Siobhan: I'm ready.

Help Siobhan comfort the monsters

Mission Description

You have deterred the Bloodhound Family for now, but the monsters are also showing signs of emotional instability. The most important thing now is to help Siobhan regain their trust.

The Reverie (Dreamscape)

(Talk to Siobhan)

Siobhan: I'll remove the protection for my heart. During this time, please use your magical ability to let everyone know how I'm really feeling.

Siobhan: Shall we begin? I'm ready.

I'll start right away.

Hurry and use Siobhan's replacement lock cylinder, tick-tock!
(Unlock the Emo Dial with Dreamjolt Hostelry Group Photo): You're about to enter Siobhan's Emoscape. Are you ready, tick-tock?
(Enter sub-mission Birth of the Dreamjolt Hostelry in the Domain of Excursion Siobhan's Emoscape)

Nah, I've got better stuff to do.

Siobhan: That's fine. Go ahead and do your own business. Just don't keep the monsters waiting too long.

(Talk to Siobhan again, before completing the sub-mission)

Siobhan: I'll remove the protection for my heart. During this time, please use your magical ability to let everyone know how I'm really feeling.

Siobhan: Shall we begin? I'm ready.

I'll start right away.

You're about to enter Siobhan's Emoscape. Are you ready, tick-tock?
(Enter sub-mission Birth of the Dreamjolt Hostelry in the Domain of Excursion Siobhan's Emoscape)

Nah, I've got better stuff to do.

Siobhan: That's fine. Go ahead and do your own business. Just don't keep the monsters waiting too long.

(After completing the sub-mission): Siobhan: ...Looks like you're quite used to peering into people's hearts, right?; Siobhan: Honestly, revealing all of my innermost feelings... Hah, it feels pretty bad. It makes you feel vulnerable.; Sorry...; I'm not quite skilled at it.; Siobhan: Well, we can't pick and choose right now. Let's keep going. I haven't finished my drink yet.; Siobhan: ...; Siobhan: I'm an orphan, and I never knew who my parents were. I was abandoned at the Reverie Hotel before I was old enough to remember anything. Maeven, head of the Iris Family, adopted me and raised me as a future star.; Siobhan: I once achieved great success in my acting career, but in the end... the stage wasn't for me. I just couldn't fit in.; Siobhan: Life under the spotlight was too much for me... I despised being in front of the camera, the never-ending interviews, and the mind-numbingly boring scripts. I'd rather be with those monsters than in a rowdy crowd.; Siobhan: I... long for a real family.; A real family... like the Sweet Dreams Troupe?; Siobhan: Yeah. They're simple and innocent kids. Being with them brings me peace and happiness.; Siobhan: That's why I can't stand those who treat them as tools and boss them around. Unfortunately, there are too many selfish and hypocritical people in the Dreamscape, bullying the weak to boost their own pathetic egos.; Siobhan: So, I left the stage because I wanted to help them. You know what happened next: The Dreamscape started collapsing, and the hotel got sealed by The Family and became a spot infested by frenzied monsters.; Siobhan: I stayed here, searching for the abandoned Sweet Dreams Troupe members who were still sane. I established this lounge, making drinks for those monsters and finding ways to calm them down, hoping to change their fate.; Siobhan: They're my most important family, and I don't want to see them get hurt.; Siobhan: ...It's time to face reality.

Mr. Bigwig: Woof... I'm so sorry, Siobhan...

Mr. Bigwig: We shouldn't have doubted you... You've done so much for us...

Siobhan: I'm sorry. I haven't been spending much time at the lounge lately, and I haven't had a chance to explain everything to you guys.

Siobhan: The reason I entrusted this lounge to (Trailblazer) for now is that I heard about The Family's plan to eliminate all monsters in the hotel in the Dreamscape. To stop them, I need to regain the support of the Iris Family.

Siobhan: Mixing drinks... it's like having a conversation, but I couldn't do it well on my own.

Amiky: Look at you now, Siobhan! What happened to that boldness you had when you confronted the entire Iris Family? Remember when you came to me all excited, saying, "Hey, Amiky! I found a dog, and it wants to come home with me!"

Amiky: Now that you've decided to run this lounge, take responsibility for it.

Siobhan: ...

Siobhan: Did I ever say I was running away, Amiky? Well, you've become quite the lecturer, haven't you? I'm happy to see you've grown more mature.

Amiky: ...Hey, don't try to change the subject!

Siobhan: Let's go. We'll go meet those hounds.

Bloodhound Family Member: Two more? Don't get in our way! Whoever you are, don't think you can stop the Bloodhound Family!

Amiky: Oh? You really don't care who we are? Being too reckless will get you into trouble.

Bloodhound Family Member: Don't threaten me! A Bloodhound Family member's will is resolute as steel!

Siobhan: I don't mean to intimidate, but perhaps you could do the Iris Family a favor?

Siobhan: This lady, Amiky, is the favorite daughter of Lady Maeven, head of the Iris Family, and she's now a superstar in the Dreamscape. Are you willing to listen to what I have to say for her sake?

Amiky: Hey, you talk as if you're not a core member of the Iris Family. Do you really see yourself as just a random drinksmith?

Siobhan: These monsters aren't aggressive at all. As you can see, a little scare is enough to frighten them. They won't pose a threat to the guests' safety.

Siobhan: What's more, (Trailblazer)'s recent actions have proven that they can be controlled.

Yeah, I can prove that.

Those "monsters" are actually more reasonable than you guys.

Siobhan: Even the Dreamjolt Troupe, corrupted by the Nightmare, can live in harmony with us. Those who are interested in those monsters and have visited the lounge will tell you the same thing.

Siobhan: If you don't believe me, why don't you ask around?

Amiky: And if you're truly interested, I can ask our family head to speak with you guys, and I'm pretty sure... her words will be more convincing. Don't you think?

Bloodhound Family Member: Uh...

Starlet: Are you members of the Dreamjolt Troupe who came here with them?

???: ???

Starlet: It feels terrible to be treated like lifeless objects and bossed around, doesn't it?

???: ???

Starlet: Well, you always have the choice to leave. You don't have to spend your life obeying their orders.

Starlet: All new members are welcome at Dreamjolt Hostelry.

???: ???

???: ...!

Bloodhound Family Member: What's happening? The monsters are running away?

Bloodhound Family Member: ...Are they affected by the Nightmare and going frenzied? How are we supposed to carry out this task without them?

Siobhan: They didn't become frenzied. They simply just don't want to follow orders anymore.

Siobhan: They've realized that they have options other than being mere tools for The Family.

Bloodhound Family Member: ...

Amiky: Why are you still here? Do you want me to say hi to your boss?

Bloodhound Family Member: No... of course not... We'll leave right now. Sorry for the disturbance...

Siobhan: Well, I chose to stay in the desolate hotel in the Dreamscape to stay away from Family issues, but in the end, I had to rely on my Family connection to protect this lounge.

Amiky: That's why your idealism can't solve any problems. So, stop being naive and be more realistic.

Amiky: Besides, you will fulfill... what you promised me, right? Right?

Siobhan: Don't worry. Have I ever lied to you? We'll discuss the business once we've taken care of everything in the lounge.

Mr. Bigwig: Woof... but... Siobhan...?

Mr. Bigwig: Those guys were right. We'll be corrupted by the Nightmare one day, right?

Siobhan: Yeah, nothing will change. I can't help get rid of the nightmare completely. I'm sorry.

Mr. Bigwig: Woof... I didn't mean to blame you.

Siobhan: Just like humans can get sick, members of the Sweet Dreams Troupe can be affected by negative emotions and become frenzied.

Siobhan: Life is a process of constant change... and there's no permanent solution. Problems will always arise, and we'll keep solving them moment by moment.

Siobhan: But... no matter how much you all flip out here, I will stay here and help you find yourselves.

Siobhan: In my eyes, you're no different from me. I'll stay with you forever until the Dreamscape collapses completely.

Mr. Bigwig: Woof! Thank you!

Siobhan: And... even if I'm gone one day, there's someone else who's willing to treat you all like family, right?

Siobhan: ...Don't you agree, new drinksmith?

The Dreamjolt Hostelry may have returned to its peace and quiet, but not all matters were resolved. Such as...

Amiky: ...Siobhan! This is not what we agreed on!

Mr. Bigwig: Woof! You're starting to talk like me now!

Amiky: We agreed that I'd help you restore your relationship with the Iris Family and keep this lounge. In return, you promised me a comeback to the stage and to perform together with me!

Amiky: But why... why are all the monster names listed on this promotional poster?

Amiky: Ace Dealer Spade, Melancholy Dramatist, Soda Bigwig, Lady and Justice, Steel Tin Man, and Starlet the Philosopher King.

Amiky: Your name isn't there!

Spade: Mwahahaha! Are you underestimating our performance skills, dear lady? Come to my show, and you won't be disappointed!

Siobhan: What we agreed was that the owners of Dreamjolt Hostelry would assist the Iris Family in their performances. Since this lounge belongs to those monsters, they'll be participating in the show... Is that a problem?

Lady: I've even decided to become an idol to save our lounge from closing down.

Amiky: You... You're being sly!... Hmph!

Siobhan: I've contacted the Bloodhound Family, and they've agreed to postpone the cleanup of the hotel in the Dreamscape. In other words, these monsters will be safe, and Dreamjolt Hostelry will continue to operate.

Siobhan: Thank you for everything. If it weren't for you taking over as the drinksmith, I wouldn't have had time to deal with all the troubles within The Family.

Siobhan: ...Thank you. We really appreciate your help.

Don't mention it.

I've had a lot of fun mixing drinks.

Siobhan: I knew you'd say that. Whenever you feel like it, feel free to drop by. You're always welcome here.

Siobhan: Alright, now go make yourself an exclusive drink as a souvenir of your drinksmith career.

Siobhan: ...And show me what you're really like on the inside.

Make yourself something that's tailored for yourself.

Siobhan: ...Is the mixing done?

Siobhan: This drink will be made specially for you. I will add it to the Dreamjolt Hostelry's drink menu. Customers will get to taste it, so you better consider your choice carefully.

I'll pick this one!

(Continue with mission)

Let me think...

(Return to Drink Mixing, repeat dialogue above)

Siobhan: An interesting thought. Looks like Gallagher was right — it's always a surprise with you around.; Siobhan: This special drink that belongs to you will be kept on the Dreamjolt Hostelry drink menu, to commemorate those who will forever be our friends.; Siobhan: You're always welcome, amazing drinksmith of Penacony!
