Symphony of Dreams

(Idle)

Pulchra: No problem. Leave it to me.

Kylie: Thank you so much...

(Talk to Kylie)

Kylie: *Sobbing* You're here! I have good news and bad news... Which do you want to hear first?

Good news

Kylie: The good news is that this time I've brought in a helper from the Outer Ring to assist you, who should be more reliable than the previous odd-job agency. The bad news is that Tully's data stream has reached an unprecedented activity point level...

Bad news

Kylie: The bad news is that Tully's data stream has reached an unprecedented activity points level. The good news is that this time I've brought in an assistant from the Outer Ring to help you, who should be more reliable than the previous odd-job agency...

(If the player has not completed [["VIP" Arrives!] and Pulchra's Probation Period (I))

A helper from the Outer Ring?

Wait a moment. It's... It's!

(It's Pulchra, the mercenary hired by Lucius during the Tour de Inferno! How could she possibly be here?!)

(No, I should calm down... I've met her a few times before, but each time it was as Eous.)

(She's just here as an ordinary assistant, so I'll just act like I know nothing...)

Pulchra: Hehe, what's wrong, (‍handsomehandsomeText for Wise / beautifulbeautifulText for Belle‍)? Why did you fall silent for a few seconds when you saw me just now?

Pulchra: Shh... Don't speak yet. Let me guess: are you thinking about whether you should pretend nothing happened in front of me, "Phaethon"?

 !!

...

Pulchra: Hmm, very well. Just stay silent like this. After all, if someone found out this secret here, it wouldn't do any of us any good.

Pulchra: Don't be nervous. I'm a mercenary who means no harm to anyone outside of missions. Besides, I've actually... already joined the Sons of Calydon.

What?

Pulchra: Hold on. Don't be surprised yet. I'll explain.

You've got the wrong person... Haha...

Pulchra: Alright, cut it out. I'll explain it to you.

Pulchra: After the Tour de Inferno, my employment relationship with Lucius naturally came to an end. Later, The Vanquishers asked me to help with some tasks, but they didn't have much good business either.

Pulchra: After thinking it over, I found there wasn't much else to do in the Outer Ring lately, and the Sons of Calydon needed someone skilled in gathering intelligence, so I agreed to join them.

Just... like that?

Pulchra: So, anyway, the previous conflict was also because of business. Oh right, look, here's the contact information for the Sons of Calydon. Now you should surely trust me.

Isn't that just casual?

Pulchra: Casual? I'm just a mercenary, after all. Being picky won't earn me any money. Oh right, look, here's their contact information. Now you'll believe me, right?

Pulchra: Anyway, I was originally going to visit your shop with them in a few days. But since we've run into each other here, it might be more convenient to clear things up directly. After all, we're going to collaborate this time.

Well...You're telling the truth I guess.

Well then... here's to pleasant cooperation.

Pulchra: Hope we have a great collaboration. If you have any commissions in the future, feel free to reach out. Although I've joined the Sons of Calydon, I'll still take on some side jobs, and today's business is no exception.

You really don't hold back.

Aren't you afraid I'll tell them?

Pulchra: Hehe, they're all my private clients, and you'll find out in the future. Alright, enough small talk. Let's get down to business now — my employer is waiting.

Pulchra: Kylie, sorry for keeping you waiting. I just discovered that this other helper and I already knew each other before.

(If the player has completed "VIP" Arrives! or Pulchra's Probation Period (I))

Pulchra: Oh, I'm actually seeing you here. So, you've taken on this job too?

Exactly

Yes, together with you

Pulchra: Great. I was a bit worried about getting a teammate who might slow us down, but now it looks like we'll be able to earn this money quite easily.

Pulchra: Well, hope we have a great time working together.

Kylie: Do you two know each other? Then this will be even easier! Once Tully arrives, we can get started.

Tully: En-ne! Ehn! En-nahh. (Sorry for keeping everyone waiting! ...Ah, it's you again! We've already collaborated three times, and it seems we've developed quite the rapport.)

Pulchra: Let me join in today's combat as well. This young... umm, warrior.

Tully: En-noh? En-nneh. (Newbie? You look quite capable. Alright, join us then.)

Tully: Ehn-ne-nehh-nah! (Unexpectedly, there were still some stragglers from the previous combat. This time we'll catch them all in one fell swoop!)

Complete the Dream Space "Symphony of Dreams"

 Step Description

---

In the fleeting moment between dream and reality, the three-foot hero stands guard over the world. Tully, are you truly afflicted with an incurable ailment, or have you made some unspoken bargain with delusion that we cannot comprehend...?

(Idle)

Tully: En nehh! (Take that, you nasty villain!)

Pulchra: I am ready.

Kylie: This should be fine now...

(Talk to Tully)

Tully: Noh-neh! Nahh-neh! (Let's go! Let's go!)

Pulchra: So, ready to head out?

Let's go.

Give me a moment.

Report results to Kylie

 Step Description

If everyone expects you to become "normal", why are you still lingering in this long dream?

Kylie: Data fluctuations are within defined threshold limits, and detection shows no anomalous results... Tully! ...How are you feeling?

Tully: En-nehh, en-noh! (Tully is so happy. Tully is the hero of New Eridu!)

Kylie: What... Why is it still like this... Can it never be cured? Or is it all my fault for doing it the wrong way...

Pulchra: Hey, little Bangboo, you're Tully, right? You've actually already recovered, haven't you?

Kylie: What? Impossible. Tully would never lie to me. She's the most reliable workmate at HIA!

Kylie: Don't worry. I'll think of another way... Rest assured, the compensation for you won't be discounted.

Pulchra: Look, this lady next to you cares about you so much. Don't take her trust for granted anymore.

Tully: ...

Kylie: Tully?... Tully?... Is she telling the truth?

Tully: En-ne... (I'm sorry. Tully deceived Kylie... Actually, my disorder had already been resolved...)

Tully: En-ne, en-ehn, noh... (But in the dreams, Tully was the great hero who saved New Eridu, with powerful weapons, able to protect everyone, so no one would have to suffer...)

Tully: En-neh-nho... (In those dreams, everything was there, so Tully couldn't wake up. Even when awake, Tully wants to return to the dreams...)

Kylie: Aww, Tully...

Pulchra: Here, you are but a little Bangboo, a powerless, weak, and tiny Bangboo.

Pulchra?

Pulchra!

Pulchra: But are you content with this? If you forever remain in dreams, you will never move forward. No matter how powerful you are in dreams, you are fragile in reality!

Pulchra: But as long as you wake up and step into reality with the strength, everything will change. How's that? Not bad to just wake up, right?

Tully: En-neh... (Cat lady...)

Pulchra: Ahem, that's how it goes. You should come check out the Outer Ring. Sure the Outer Ring folks love to talk about dreams and all that cringe-worthy stuff, but you can't deny they're really good at bringing dreams to life.

Tully: En-neh-ne... (*Sobbing* Cat lady is right. The previous ladies affirmed Tully's dream, but it seems like just a dream isn't enough... Tully was wrong. Tully doesn't want to trouble everyone anymore...)

Didn't know Pulchra had this side.

Talk therapy worked. Patient discharged!

Pulchra: Looks like I did a good job acting. Anyway, as long as it was helpful.

Kylie: Don't cry, Tully. I forgive you. Quickly pull yourself together and get back to work. I'm counting on your help!

Kylie: Thank you all for bringing my dear workmate back to reality! But what about the work I didn't finish these past few days...

Tully: En-ehn-nehh! (I'll help Kylie and work overtime together!)

Kylie: Thank you, Tully. *Sobbing* If only I had unlimited energy like Bangboo...

(Idle)

Kylie: Nice one, Tully!

Tully: Ehn-nu... (Kylie, cat lady...)

Pulchra: Welcome back to reality.

(Talk to Kylie again)

Kylie: Tully, the real world can be pretty brutal.
If you don't take action, you won't become as awesome as you are in your dreams.

Tully: Nhe-en, ehn-en! (I understand. From today on I'll work hard on my training!)

Tully: Ehn, en-nhe. (I don't just want to be a great ally who fights alongside everyone, I want to fulfill my dream of becoming an amazing Bangboo who can protect loads of people!)

Tully: Nhe-en... (Thanks to the cat lady, and the other ladies from before, I've learned a lot...)

I believe you can become super strong!

I'm sure you can make your dreams come true.

Tully: Nhe nhe... Ehn-na! (I won't let everyone down... I'll become a tiny titan!)

Kylie: Okay! Starting today, let's work hard together, Tully! As your greatest partner, I can't let you surpass me!

Tully: Ehn, nhe na... (hehe, you're the best Kylie...)\

(Talk to Tully again)

Tully: En-neh, Enn-en! (Hah! Tully has been awesome lately, not only handling all her work but also exceeding VR Training!)

Incredible!

Let me pat your little head!

Tully: En-noh, neh-na! Ehn... (Heehee, Tully will keep it up! Oh right, I wanted to formally say thank you...)

Tully: En, en-neh-nah! (Thank you for always being with Tully to complete her somewhat willful wishes. The dreams we had together were so much fun!)

Tully: Enh, en-ne-noh! (Although I have to wake from the dream, Tully won't discard her dream... I want to change reality using the strength from my dream, like cat sister said, and become the strongest little Bangboo!)

Tully: Ehn-neh-nho-neh? (If you could train with Tully, it would be twice as effective... How about it, dream partner? Want to take the adventure with me again?)

Sure!

I'm a little busy...

(Talk to Tully again after triggering the previous dialogue)

Tully: Ehn-neh-nho-neh? (If you could train with Tully, it would be twice as effective... How about it, dream partner? Want to take the adventure with me again?)

Sure!
