Forgotten Hero: After Battle

Marianne
I still can't believe what we saw in that forest...

Marianne
The Wandering Beast's eviscerated body... Only human bones and this sword remaining.

Marianne
Surely the creature's true identity was...

Crest Scholar
I'm sorry...

Marianne
You again?

Crest Scholar
I heard rumor that the Wandering Beast was slain, but do you really believe that frees you of suspicion?

Crest Scholar
Huh? Oh! That sword!

Marianne
When the Wandering Beast was defeated, this sword...

Crest Scholar
It's unmistakable! Carved into that sword's Crest stone is Maurice's Crest!

Crest Scholar
But how would the lost Magic Blade end up with the Wandering Beast?

Crest Scholar
According to what I know of Maurice's story, he didn't let go of the sword until the very end. That must mean...

Crest Scholar
I see. So that's what happened...

Crest Scholar
My apologies, it seems I was mistaken. I must be going.

Marianne
He was roaming the dark woods for over a thousand years, suffering for his murderous past.

Marianne

Marianne

Marianne
Without your help, I would never have found peace.

Marianne
I'll do anything I can to repay my debt to you!
