Translation of Ain's (Ayn's) quest, Phantasy Star III, Japanese version Notes: Name differences are noted below. If some of the Japanese name romanizations don't match the ones used in the Compendium translation, it's because I've finally given up on trying to figure out PS3's bizarre name changes and variants. An inconclusive attempt to hash things out can be found at http://www.sceneryrecalled.com/trans/ps3names.txt. In rough order of appearance, continued from Kein's quest: Ayn --> Ain Thea --> Lann Techna --> Flotraan Endora --> Lott Cape Dragon Spine --> the Dragon's Tail Sari --> Lynn Note: "Siren" could be "Psy-Wren". PS3's various domes are not given specific names ("Aridia", "Frigidia", etc.) in the Japanese version. Likewise, Alisa III's two "moons" are not given proper names in the original; they're just referred to as the "azure moon" and "violet moon" instead of Azura and Dahlia. Many thanks to Neilast and Mike Ripplinger for use of the format employed in their PS3 English scripts - which can be found at http://www.phantasy-star.net/psiii/psiii.html, if you'd like to do some English vs. Japanese side-by-side comparisons.

Kein: For Marina, I will give up my home and royal birthright. Marina: Then I shall give you my country and heart in return. Narrator: And so, Kein Sa Riik's long journey drew to a close. He was finally able to reunite with his lost love, Marina. Kein became Kein Le Cille, ruler of Marina's country. The two brought a young prince named Ain into the world. The people enjoyed over a decade of peace. But, now... This is the story of Kein and Marina's son, Ain Le Cille. CILLE CASTLE ----------------------------------------------------------- (Three soldiers approach the throne of King Kein.) Soldier: K, King Kein! Lady Marina! Prince Ain! A-A report! A giant army of robots has appeared out of nowhere! Soldier: The robots are flying Orakio's colors and are invading our lands! Our armies of monsters are nearly annihilated! Soldier: We've received a missive from Shusoran! King Lyle calls for aid! (The three soldiers depart.) Kein: Ain, my son... That which I have long feared is upon us... In the course of my journeys, I came to learn of the existence of many other worlds besides our own... And I dreaded that one day invaders would come from one of those worlds... Ain! I will protect this country! You leave this land with Mieu and Searren! And seek the "world of eternal peace", Satellite... Kein: Seek out Satellite! Marina: This land is probably already...Ain! Start your journey! Soldiers: - Orakio's Law forbids them from killing us directly. Instead, they send their robots to burn us out and drive us to extinction. Nobles: - I've heard of "the world of eternal peace", Satellite. It is said that when the world falls into conflict and war, those chosen by the gods alone are allowed to live there. - Prince Ain! You're our only hope! Please, you must come back alive... - There are legions of robots outside the castle! CILLE ----------------------------------------------------------- Townspeople (Men): - A world of eternal peace... Please, find the legendary Satellite. - If only at least my family could move to Satellite... - Has King Lyle's southern realm of Shusoran already fallen to the enemy? Townspeople (Women): - If the legendary Satellite exists, we would no longer have to live in fear! SHUSORAN CASTLE ----------------------------------------------------------- Lyle: Ain! How you've grown! I've heard that you're searching for Satellite. I wish I could lend you a hand as I did with Kein on his own journey... But, as King, I have a duty to protect my people... Lann: Lord Ain, have you forgotten me? I am Lyle's daughter, Lann La Mirah! Nobles: - Lord Lyle lost one of his eyes in a recent battle... - Shusoran will never fall long as Lord Lyle is with us! Soldiers: - Lord Lyle has scars all over his body from combating the robot armies... He never speaks to anyone about it - he just keeps going out on the battlefield again and again, without complaint... - The Orakians should be wiped out! SHUSORAN ----------------------------------------------------------- Townspeople (Men): - Who could be controlling these robots?! Townspeople (Women): - A world of eternal peace... Please, find the legendary Satellite. Townspeople (Children): - Shusoran will never be destroyed as long as Lord Lyle, the Dragon Knight, is here! AGOE ----------------------------------------------------------- Townspeople (Men): - The country of Agoe is an Orakian land...but you are welcome here. - I doubt that even King Kein and King Lyle will be able to protect their kingdoms any longer... Townspeople (Women): - We've had no conflicts for so many years...who is the mastermind commanding these robots? AGOE CASTLE ----------------------------------------------------------- Nobles: - I wonder where the Orakians are who are attacking your kingdoms... - How do you expect to find Satellite? It exists only in legend! Soldiers: - But Orakians and Laians have lived in peace for over ten years here! King: - Rumor has it that the kingdom of Riik - the homeland of King Kein, your father - is under attack by monsters of unknown origin. Where are all these legions of Orakian robots and Laian monsters coming from... RYSEL ----------------------------------------------------------- Townspeople (Men): - The village of Rysel has not forgotten that your father saved us. - It's horrible! As soon as you left, a new army of robots crossed the sea! I fear that your kingdom might already be... Anyhow, you'd best hurry back! Woman Upstairs in House: - Move to "Satellite"?! You actually believe that legend?! AGOE (after visiting Rysel) ----------------------------------------------------------- Townspeople (Men): - The country of Agoe is an Orakian land...but you are welcome here. - I heard that the people of Cille and Shusoran fled somewhere. Townspeople (Women): - We've had no conflicts for so many years...who is the mastermind commanding these robots? AGOE CASTLE (after visiting Rysel) ----------------------------------------------------------- Nobles: - Cille and Shusoran... ....they're both...both engulfed in flame......! - I pray that you find the legendary Satellite... Soldiers: - At least the people of Cille and Shusoran were somehow able to escape... King: - A terrible tragedy has occurred... CILLE (after visiting Rysel) ----------------------------------------------------------- Townspeople (Men): - Cille and Shusoran have both been destroyed. Their peoples fled to the desert world. As for me, I could not bring myself to leave the town that holds my family's graves... TUNNEL FROM RIIK'S WORLD TO SHUSORAN'S WORLD ----------------------------------------------------------- (A lone soldier blocks the path.) Soldier: - We are soldiers of Lord Lune, who is searching for our revered Laia's lost treasure! Do not interfere! HASATAKA ----------------------------------------------------------- Cyborgs: - VISITORS ARE RARE IN THE FORGOTTEN DESERT TOWN OF HASATAKA. - AN ANDROID GONE MAD WANDERS THE DESERT. - SOME PEOPLE WHO LOOKED LIKE LAIAN REFUGEES FLED TO THE WEST. AMONG THEM WAS THE MAN WHO STOLE THE TWINS' RUBY FROM US TWENTY YEARS AGO AND FLED TO RIIK VIA THE NORTHWEST CAVE. - THERE'S A WAY TO REACH SATELLITE THROUGH FLOTRAAN, TO THE EAST. HOWEVER, YOU LIKELY WON'T BE ABLE TO GO THERE WITHOUT THE POWER TOPAZ. - IT IS SAID THAT THE POWER TOPAZ IS A SATERAN HEIRLOOM. THAT COUNTRY WAS ONCE HOME TO ANOTHER VISITOR TO THIS TOWN CALLED LENA. NOW, HOWEVER, THEY SAY THAT THE STONE IS THE PROPERTY OF HER DAUGHTER, WHO CAN BE FOUND IN RIIK CASTLE. DESERT WORLD ----------------------------------------------------------- Miun: Oh! You are Lord Orakio...I've been waiting to see you for... ...? NO! You're not Lord Orakio! You don't have his black sword! Oh! Where is my Lord Orakio? SEARREN'S OLD CAVE ----------------------------------------------------------- Soldiers: - King Kein, King Lyle, and Lady Marina are inside... - Lord Lyle suffered even worse wounds when the robot armies invaded. Princess Lann was seized by the enemy. And our people are scattered to the winds... - All this happened in your absence, Prince Ain!... Children: - We ran away from Cille and Shusoran. They were destroyed... Nobles: - Lord Lyle has been gravely wounded. It pains me to say it, but he might not have much longer... Kein: Ain! Grant Lyle...grant my dear friend his wish! Marina: Lyle is already... He tries to keep up appearances, but... Lyle: Ain... I'm a disgrace to the title of the Dragon Knight... I beg you, Ain! Save my daughter! She's been taken to the eastern world! It took all I had to get my hands on the key to that world... In that box is the key...the pearl called the Dragon's Tear! Please! Lann...my daughter...please save her! LENSOL ----------------------------------------------------------- Old Man Upstairs in Equipment Shop: - About the only place these days, I think, that the old technological know-how is kept alive is Flotraan, on the island off the shore. LOTT ----------------------------------------------------------- Townspeople (Men): - What business do Laians have in the Orakian "Artisans' Village" of Lott?! - If you go east, you'll reach a cape called the "Dragon's Tail". If you cross the sea at that point, you'll come to the engineers' "Castle of Power", Flotraan. - I'm Quisto. ...I beg of you! Please save Miss Lann! ...The truth is, when I laid eyes upon the captive princess, she took my HEART captive... I wanted to rescue her, and I managed to get the front gate open, but I didn't stand a chance against the fierce robots inside. I got scared, and ran home without a backward glance. I knew it! I'm not cut out to be a hero - I'm just a poor excuse for a man... Townspeople (Women): - I hear a beautiful princess was taken into the castle of Lensol, to the south. My friend Quisto has been acting pretty odd since then... LENSOL CASTLE ----------------------------------------------------------- (The party finds Lann in her cell.) Lann: Lord Ain! Lord Ain! Lord Ain! You came all the way to a place like this just for me... The robots wanted to know how to use my Twins' Ruby... My father, Lyle, left it in my care - I'm sure it'll come in handy! That reminds me, how is Father? Please take me to him! Narrator: Ain and the party saved Lann! LOTT (after rescuing Lann) ----------------------------------------------------------- Townspeople (Men): - What business do Laians have in the Orakian "Artisans' Village" of Lott?! - If you go east, you'll reach the "Dragon's Tail". If you cross the sea at that point, you'll come to the engineers' "Castle of Power", Flotraan. - M-Miss Lann...... L, l, lovely weather we're having, isn't it? I-I-I'm, Q-Quisto, I am. Townspeople (Women): - One of these days, Quisto will realize how I feel about him! SEARREN'S OLD CAVE (after rescuing Lann) ----------------------------------------------------------- Soldiers: - King Kein, King Lyle, and Lady Marina are inside... - I pledge to you the same loyalty I have to Lord Lyle! - Long live Prince Ain! Long live Lady Lann! Glory to Laia's people! Nobles: - Lord Lyle has been gravely wounded. It pains me to say it, but he might not have much longer... Children: - When I grow up, I'm gonna be like Lord Ain! Kein: Well done, my son... Marina: Lyle is already... He tries to keep up appearances, but... Lyle: Ain! Words can't express my gratitude. Use the Twins' Ruby Lann has! Long ago, I used that ruby to sneak into Riik's world... RIIK ----------------------------------------------------------- Man above Technique Distribution: - A war? There's a WAR going on outside? Wow... Myself, I've been busy building my father's dream - a machine that can fly in the sky. RIIK CASTLE ----------------------------------------------------------- (The party finds Lynn waiting in the dungeon.) Lynn: I am Lena's daughter, Lynn! I ascended to the heirless throne of the kingdom of Riik! YOU, you traitors to the Orakian people, what business do you have here?! Do you think I'm going to hand over the Power Topaz, Satera's heirloom treasure, to YOU?! This is the key to Orakio's ancient former fortress! Save your breath, traitors! (A battle between Lynn and the party ensues. Lynn is defeated.) Lynn: I lost... I'll give you the Power Topaz. But you're letting me come along to see just what it is you're up to! Narrator: Lynn joined the party! SEARREN'S OLD CAVE (after obtaining the Power Topaz) ----------------------------------------------------------- Soldiers: - King Kein, King Lyle, and Lady Marina are inside... - I pledge to you the same loyalty I have to Lord Lyle! - Long live Prince Ain! Long live Lady Lann! Glory to Laia's people! Nobles: - Lord Lyle has been gravely wounded. It pains me to say it, but he might not have much longer... Children: - When I grow up, I wanna be like Lord Ain! Kein: Search out Satellite! Marina: Lyle is already... He tries to keep up appearances, but... Lyle: Go to the eastern world! The place called the "Dragon's Tail"...go there! You'll understand why when you arrive! Hurry! There's no time! DRAGON'S TAIL ----------------------------------------------------------- (The party reaches the area known as Dragon's Tail. A dragon is waiting for them there.) Dragon: Climb on my back...I'll take you to Flotraan. (The party climbs onto the dragon's back. It then flies southeast across an arm of the sea and lands on the isle of Flotraan. The dragon then transforms into the familiar figure of Lyle.) Lyle: Did you see that... I...have...the power to...change into a...dragon... Once...I took...Marina...away in...this form... Please don't...tell Kein...any of this... ...Please...l-look after Lann!... (Lyle disappears.) Narrator: Lyle, scarred and battered, has exhausted his power. He is dead. FLOTRAAN ----------------------------------------------------------- Townspeople (Men): - "Satellite"? Ahh...headed for Satellite, are you? Don't you know? The marauding robot armies come from there! Townspeople (Old Men): - The location of the legendary Satellite, you ask? Look up at the sky... at the twinkling Azure Moon. It was flung far away by Laia 1,000 years ago. But twenty years ago, it was moved back. The Azure Moon - that's Satellite. Townspeople (Women): - This is the royal town of Flotraan, the Castle of Power. - You can reach Satellite from beneath this castle. But beware! The legendary Satellite is no place of eternal peace! Townspeople (Children): - Our castle was taken over by these robots who appeared out of nowhere... They're pouring out of the castle and taking off to all over the world!... Man Upstairs in Weapon Shop: - We're Orakians, but we sympathize with the Laians. FLOTRAAN CASTLE ----------------------------------------------------------- (The party finds an old man and rocket shuttle deep in the dungeon.) Old Man: Laians, here... wanting to go to Satellite...?? Ohh! That's the Power Topaz! The symbol of ownership of the spaceship! In that case, go ahead and use the spaceship that lies within!... And learn the true nature of our world, the Alisa III... (The party boards the shuttle at Flotraan and flies above Alisa III.) Ain: Look down at where we launched from!... Mieu: The world we live in... So that's its true form... Lynn: An enormous spaceship created by our ancestors' ancient civilization... (The shuttle approaches the Azure Moon.) Searren: We have arrived at the satellite. AZURE MOON ----------------------------------------------------------- (The shuttle lands on the Azure Moon.) Lann: Satellite... So the moons in our sky were spaceships too... (The party finds Siren in the Azure Moon's dungeon.) Siren: There are yet survivors among the Orakians?! But I thought my robot armies had wiped them all out! I am a Siren-type robot! You comrade Searren is modeled after me. 1,000 years ago, I served Lord Orakio along with the android Miun! However, Laia used her strange powers to send me away, along with Satellite! I've waited 1,000 years' time! My day of vengeance upon Laia is at hand! (A battle between Siren and the party ensues. Siren is defeated.) Siren: Why don't you finish me off?! Laia's Law forbids killing? But I'll keep coming back until I am destroyed! Until I have claimed vengeance for the Lord Orakio who bestowed upon me my very heart! Narrator: Siren escaped. Ain's journey is over... The Laians migrated to Satellite. And it came time for Ain to take a wife. --End of Ain's quest--
