Translation of Fuin's (Adan'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 Lein's quest: Gwyn --> Laia Kara --> Luna Skyhaven --> Clanclaire New Mota --> Foundry (probably not an exact translation, but it's the closest I've got, so it's staying) Neo Palm --> Neo Parma 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.

Lein: Let's make Orakio and Laia's unfulfilled dream come true together!... Laia: Now I'm glad I woke up after 1000 years... Narrator: And so, Lein Sa Riik was wed to a girl from 1,000 years past... The peoples of Laia and Orakio ended their conflict. Lein and Laia brought a twin prince and princess into the world. The prince was named Fuin, and the princess inherited the name of Laia from her mother. The two passed fifteen years in a peaceful world... But Fuin's younger sister Laia began to have the same dream every night - a dream of falling into a dark pit. This is their story - the story of Fuin Sa Riik and Laia Sa Riik. RIIK CASTLE ----------------------------------------------------------- Narrator: It was a peaceful day in the great hall of the castle of Riik...when suddenly... a great earthquake struck! Lein: What could have caused that tremor?! What is happening to our spaceship... Fuin! Take Mieu and Searren and investigate at once! Laia: Fuin - big brother! That earthquake was no accident! It might have some connection to the dreams I'm having about falling into a dark pit... Big brother! Take me with you, too! Narrator: Laia joined the party! Lein: Fuin, my son! Laia, my daughter! Find out what happened - and what we're facing! My friend Lune might know something about our situation... Laia (Queen): My dear Fuin... My dear Laia... That dream Laia has been having about falling into a dark pit...it fills me with dread... Soldiers: - What could've happened to our spaceship... Nobles: - I understand that Princess Laia has some mysterious powers that her mother Queen Laia does not... Could her dream of falling into a dark pit be a premonition of danger? - Might not Lord Lune have some answers, perchance? RIIK ----------------------------------------------------------- Townspeople (Men): - Maybe Lord Lune on Satellite knows something... - Conflict between the Laians and the Orakians was supposed to be at an end; who could've... - The people of the kingdom of Riik will be awaiting your return, Lord Fuin and Lady Laia. Townspeople (Women): - And I thought the war between the Laians and the Orakians had ended... Woman Upstairs in Eastern House: - What on earth was that earthquake? Child Upstairs in Western House: - The kingdom of Riik will be all right as long as King Lein and Lady Laia are here! YAATA ----------------------------------------------------------- Townspeople (Men): - It seems that someone is directing the monsters and robots to attack the populace - someone not Laian, nor Orakian. Townspeople (Women): - Welcome to Yaata, the Port City - Robots aren't supposed to attack Orakians...what's going on? HYURRI ----------------------------------------------------------- Townspeople (Men): - The world has gone crazy! Robots battle Orakians; monsters fight Layans! Townspeople (Women): - Welcome to the Island Village, Hyurri, thou who bear the blood of heroes! NORTHERN GRANDIRECTA ----------------------------------------------------------- Townspeople (Men): - Welcome to the northern city of Glorious Grandirecta! Townspeople (Women): - On the other side of the castle lies the southern half of Grandirecta town. Leave there and head across the river to find the true pilots. GRANDIRECTA CASTLE ----------------------------------------------------------- Nobles: - Lord Rulakir dwells somewhere within our spaceship, the Alisa III. There is nothing to fear as long as Lord Rulakir survives! Soldiers: - Ohhh - that's a Searren-type robot, isn't it?! With the Submarine Parts, it can dive beneath the waves; with the Sky Parts, it can soar through the clouds; and with the Marine Parts, it can sail over the ocean! So they say; a truly all-purpose robot! King: - Have you heard? Lord Rulakir has resurfaced in this world, they say. Lord Rulakir is Lord Orakio's twin brother. And he is our new god! SOUTHERN GRANDIRECTA ----------------------------------------------------------- Townspeople (Old Men): - There were once some who opposed Lune in a cave far to the west. It seems they were hiding a machine that would enable one to search for the treasure of the desert world. I'm pretty sure it was a diving machine... Townspeople (Women): - The people of the village of Pilota, to the west, are those who now set the course of this ship. With Laia's Treasure, you could cross over to that village. PILOTA ----------------------------------------------------------- Townspeople (Men): - A dream in which you're swallowed up by a dark pit? Th, that couldn't be the legendary... Townspeople (Old Men): - We tried to correct our course, but there's an outside force that's interfering! We have no way of getting rid of it... Townspeople (Women): - Welcome to the village of Pilota, home to the pilots of the domed spaceship the Alisa III. Do you want to go to Lune's satellite, the Violet Moon? The entrance to our shuttlepad is at the end of the path that runs along the south of this village. - That earthquake knocked our spaceship off course... You have precognition**; that dream you've had... It could mean a black hole is ahead... [** - Translator note: This NPC refers to Laia III as an "Esupaa," the Japanese word for "Esper." It also refers to those who have ESP. I believe this word was just carelessly employed and that they don't mean to brand her an acolyte of Lutz, but who knows. Update: Oh, daisies. I'm looking at Toyo Ozaki's character book for PS3, and on pg. 55, she mentions how Lune's ancestor was "said to have been an ESP [sic] who long ago fought together with a girl who saved the world." Lune being strongly implied to have descended from Lutz doesn't resolve Laia's heritage, but it does put the possibility of her being an Esper back more on the table. Y'all sort this out. I'm outta here. Peace.] THE VIOLET MOON ----------------------------------------------------------- Soldiers: - When the two ships attacked each other, we were the ones who fired first. Who could have perpetrated such a horrible attack?! I hear there are those in possession of great wisdom said to dwell in a world of snow; if you went to see them, maybe they'd know something? I think you could use the Sky Parts below to go there... - Ohhh! I saw it with my own eyes, and I couldn't believe it! A ship appeared that looked just like ours! We fired on each other with laser cannons, and the other ship became space dust... Our ship was hit with lasers, too, and the shock jolted us way off course. That was the actual cause of the earthquake that rocked the ship. Luise: Long ago, I was rescued by Lord Lein... I'm sure you, Lord Fuin, as Lord Lein's son, can protect my niece Luna. Yes - I have faith in you... Lune: Once again, we have entered an age of war...just when I thought peace had reigned supreme! I raised my daughter Luna as a princess, not a warrior...but the house of Eshyr descends from generations of warrior blood. Take my Lune Slicer with you into battle... But my daughter Luna is such a sweet and timid girl! She doesn't belong on the battlefield! Fuin! Protect her for me! Luna: Why did the two ships fire on each other?... I was raised in a time of peace, unschooled in combat...but I am the daughter of Lune Kay Eshyr. Father cannot abandon his responsibilities as a king; therefore, I will accompany you on your investigation in his stead. Narrator: Princess Luna joined the party! MYSTOKE ----------------------------------------------------------- Townspeople (Women): - Please, hurry to Mystoke Castle - those whose coming was foretold by legend... - The truth of Lady Laia and Lord Orakio will be revealed within Mystoke. - At last, Lady Laia's kin has come to Mystoke, the Castle of Silence... - Hold Laia's pendant to your ear, then tell its truth to Lune. You can reach Lune's Violet Moon from Pilota, south of Grandirecta. - You will be tested to see if you are worthy of the name of Laia. When you obtain the Laia Pendant, all of Laia's temples will open to you. CLANCLAIRE ----------------------------------------------------------- Cyborgs: - WELCOME TO THE WANDERING CASTLE OF CLANCLAIRE, KIN OF ORAKIO AND LAIA. - PLEASE DO NOT TAKE MY MASTERS FROM ME... Old Men: - To conquer the unholy power that is trying to destroy the world, you will need the ultimate weapons. - The ultimate weapons are empowered by a special name! This name has been sealed away, to prevent these weapons from becoming too fearsome in their might. - The Arms of Legend are those weapons with which the heroes of old fought with their hearts and souls. There are five: Orakio's Sword, the Miun Claw, the Siren Shot, Laya's Bow, and the Lune Slicer! - The special name means "the weapon that is not a weapon" in the language of ancient Algol. It was once sealed away in Sage Isle...which lies in the world of the Laian lands your grandfather once visited! To go to Sage Isle, you will need the ancient machine that lies on the floor below. But can you claim it, I wonder? If you are confident, go and try. - If we learn the special name, we can use its power to transform the Arms of Legend into the world's mightiest weapons! FOUNDRY ----------------------------------------------------------- Old Men: - In this secret village of Foundry, thou shall learn of our lost heritage. - Heed well the words of the storytellers who keep our history alive. - Listen well! We are the descendants of the people of a planet called Parma... Parma, which was said to shine the most beautifully of all the planets in the Algol star system... The people there desired for little beyond what their loved ones gave them, and gave far more than for what their loved ones asked... and that was joy, for the Parmans. We - and you - are the descendants of the people of Parma. - Listen well! We are the descendants of the people of a planet called Parma... On mother Parma, our ancestors dwelled in happiness. But because of the Power Unholy, which is said to appear once every 1,000 years, our Parma was destroyed... - Listen well! We are the descendants of the people of a planet called Parma... 2,000 years ago, the heroes Ohario and Aina challenged the Power Unholy when it appeared on Parma. But.....they did not win........ - Listen well! We are the descendants of the people of a planet called Parma... Knowing Ohario and Aina had fallen, the people resolved to abandon Parma. In secret, they built a fleet of 400 ships. And, just before the Power Unholy destroyed Parma...the ships launched. - Listen well! We are the descendants of the people of a planet called Parma... The 400 ships tried to escape the Power Unholy. A part of that fell power, however, had already infiltrated our ships. One by one, the ships were destroyed, until, by the Age of Orakio and Laia, only two - the Alisa III and the Neo Parma - remained... DESERT WORLD ----------------------------------------------------------- Miun: Ahh! The black sword! You ARE Lord Orakio!... I'm so glad I was able to see my Lord Orakio again before I shut down... Narrator: Miun collapsed... RYSEL ----------------------------------------------------------- Townspeople (Women): - We in Rysel haven't forgotten how your grandfather once saved us... Child Upstairs in Technique Shop: - They say that long ago there were Laian lands across the sea, but they're now destroyed! AGOE ----------------------------------------------------------- Townspeople (Old Men): - The one-eyed knight of legend, Lyle, he whom they say fought through the flames...I met him just once, when I was young. Townspeople (Women): - Agoe, Country of the People of the Sword, is for now at peace. AGOE CASTLE ----------------------------------------------------------- Soldiers: - There are those who say they saw a robot crossing the sea... - I hear there's an island called "Sage Isle" in this dome... It'd sure be nice if the sages who live there would share some of their wisdom with me! Nobles: - Nothing but strange things have been happening around here lately... King: - I bid you fair welcome to Agoe Castle! SAGE ISLE ----------------------------------------------------------- - People call this place Sage Isle... - You wish to learn the sealed word, you say - that which in ancient Algol means "the weapon that is not a weapon"? - Fools! - Long ago, there were those who held all five weapons needed to break the seal. But their forces split in two, and the weapons were scattered to the winds... - If you wish to break the seal and learn the lost word, then gather together the scattered Arms of Legend! Siren: I fought with Lord Orakio 1,000 years ago, but Laia locked me away on Satellite. I swore vengeance on Laia. When Satellite drew near again, I finally had my chance, and I resumed killing Laians. I broke Lord Orakio's law... But here on Sage Isle, I learned of Lord Orakio's real enemy. I hope I can apologize to Lord Orakio and Laia in the next world... Narrator: Siren collapsed. SAGE ISLE (after speaking with Siren) ----------------------------------------------------------- Old Men: - People call this place Sage Isle... - The Arms of Legend you bear instill in us deep sadness... - All the Arms of Legend have been gathered together for the first time... - Perhaps the time has come to break the seal... - Listen well! We will now break the seal! "The weapon that is not a weapon"...that which was brought into this world to give it a brief glimmer of light... The name of "Nei"... Narrator: The beautiful ancient word of "Nei" has been revived! Through its power, Mieu has learned the Grantz technique! SAGE ISLE (after hearing the word Nei) ----------------------------------------------------------- - People call this place Sage Isle. - They say the greatest blemish on this world was born in an unblemished place... - Orakio's twin brother...it pains me to say it, but he has become tainted with evil... - Those weapons endowed with the name of Nei shall break down the world of lies... - With this, the events of 1,000 years ago shall be repeated! LOTT ----------------------------------------------------------- Townspeople (Men): - Welcome to Lott, the Orakian Artisans' Village... - Long ago, I was walking along the beach when I saw a wounded, one-eyed dragon. He took off from the cape called the Dragon's Tail and headed across the sea. But his strength must've failed him along the way - with a howl of despair, he fell into the sea. No one will believe my story except my wife, Elina, but... Townspeople (Women): - I am Elina, wife of the head of the village, Quisto. FLOTRAAN ----------------------------------------------------------- Townspeople (Men): - Beneath this world lie the engines that propel our ship. We are the descendants of the engineers that made them run! Townspeople (Women): - Do you know why Flotraan is called the Castle of Power? Man Upstairs in Weapon Shop: - The descendants of the spaceship’s pilots live on the other side of the ship. It's always "do this!" "do that!" from them - what a bunch of loudmouths! LENSOL ----------------------------------------------------------- Townspeople (Old Men): - Welcome, Laians, to Lensol, the Castle of Lost Technology. - The people of this country have battled Laians for generations. But not now! It seems our true enemy lies elsewhere! LENSOL CASTLE ----------------------------------------------------------- Nobles: - Lord Rulakir is Lord Orakio's brother... He has used a strange power to keep himself alive for 1,000 years so that he can bring absolute peace to this world... Why, then, would someone from his realm attack another... Soldiers: - A long time ago, when I was young, a dragon smashed his way into the castle! He grabbed a woman from the dungeon, but I managed to wound his wing! King: - Well met, ye who are kin to Orakians and Laians both... I cannot dissuade you from continuing your search, but please be careful. There are hordes of robots and monsters pouring out of the cave to the east. Something lies in wait in the world beyond that cave... LASHUTE ----------------------------------------------------------- Nobles: - Please enjoy a good, long rest in our Holy Capital of Lashute. - The great king of this capital is Lord Rulakir... Orakio's elder twin brother... - A strange power has kept Lord Rulakir alive for 1,000 years... Guards: - Lord Rulakir lost his family in the war of 1,000 years ago... - Lord Rulakir dreams of a world of absolute peace... (The party speaks with Rulakir.) Rulakir: ...the waves break onto the shore...on a beach glistening with light... ...but...those very waves are inevitably drawn back into the ocean's dark depths... Just as I, no matter how desperately I struggle to protect my own life's joy, am inevitably overwhelmed... So is it with us all...and with you, ye of my blood. CLANCLAIRE (after hearing the word “Nei”) ----------------------------------------------------------- Cyborgs: - WELCOME TO THE WANDERING CASTLE OF CLANCLAIRE, KIN OF ORAKIO AND LAIA. - MY MASTERS...THEIR LIVES ARE NOW... Old Men: - Well done! You have obtained the lost name. - And so, we shall offer up our lives in prayer, and in exchange, the ultimate weapons shall be born. The Arms of Legend shall now become those that bear the name of Nei! - Destroy the dark one with the arms bearing the name of Nei... - Equip yourselves with the Nei weapons! - It seems as if our duties are at an end. LASHUTE (after gaining the Nei Weapons) ----------------------------------------------------------- Nobles: - Find your eternal rest in the Unholy Capital of Lashute! - We were the ones who stole Marina's memory and brought her to Riik! And in return, in his search for Marina, your grandfather called back the satellites for us! Thanks to him, Siren and Lune awakened and started a great war! - Laia closed the passageways between all the worlds out of fear that the war would spread. But your father opened them one after another for us! Guards: - How gracious of you to break the seal on the name of our god, Dark Force! Thanks to you, our god can now manifest himself in physical form. - You have done everything completely according to our plans! Die now, by the very foolishness that has been your undoing! Rulakir: So finally you have come, ye who bear the blood of my brother... I am he who has sold his soul to the God of Destruction, Dark Force... Do you know why? I lost my wife and child in the wars of 1,000 years ago... It was then that it came to me...that we have no need of this world! That it all...should cease to exist. (A battle between Rulakir and the party ensues. Rulakir is defeated.) Rulakir: So...you believe that strongly in the possibility of joy... Then go beyond, and destroy the dark god... Farewell... kin of my brother! Narrator: Rulakir has departed for the world where his wife and child await... (The party finds Dark Force in a chest in Lashute’s dungeon.) Dark Force: I am Dark Force! That which exists only to destroy! Your anger, suffering, and sorrow are my joy! Humanity shall never know happiness as long as I exist! Now it's your turn! Find your painful deaths in my embrace! (A battle between Dark Force and the party ensues. Dark Force is defeated.) Dark Force: What a pity! A little longer, and I would have plunged you into the black hole! ...Oh, well... I revive every 1,000 years! I'll just have to save your lone little ship for my amusement next time. Narrator: Dark Force disappears! Fuin: To think that so many good people died because of these monsters...! Narrator: Fuin's anger triggered the technique of ultimate destruction, Megiddo. (Fuin casts Megiddo. Lashute begins to crumble.) Searren: The explosions from Megiddo are tearing the floating city apart! Luna: Hurry! We've got to get out of here! Laia: There's no time! We'll never make it! (Mieu casts Grantz.) Mieu: Please - spare those I love from any further pain! Narrator: Mieu's heartfelt wish activated the technique of light, Grantz! Through the power of Grantz, Mieu and the others were teleported outside the floating city! (Lashute falls from the sky.) Narrator: The floating city of the disciples of darkness sunk to the bottom of the lake... (Alisa III begins to pull away from the black hole.) Mieu: Fuin! Laia! Look at the sky! Laia: The black hole... The dark pit - it's moving away... Luna: The people of Pilota must have corrected our course! Searren: There is a transmission coming in from the people of Pilota. I will read it. Transmission: ...This is Pilota, calling our heroes... ...We thank you for vanquishing the force that was preventing us from changing course... The Power Unholy has vanished... ...We of the Alisa III welcome our new ruler, King Fuin... ...May you lead us on a new 1000-year journey...to a star free of a god who would begrudge us our happiness...to our Phantasy Star...
