Speaking with Margherita again: Optional Margherita Vitreum Dancer Dialogue - Act 1
A Lycoris petal lies on the ground, emanating an ominous aura... You vaguely remember seeing this kind of flower before...
Rover reaches the Vitreum Dancer and defeats it.
Abby: “Are you okay?”
Zani: “The Vitreum Dancer suddenly lost control... Luckily, no one got hurt.”
Rover: “Actually...”
You brief her on what you just saw.
Abby: “Now that I think about it, the frequency vibration I sensed felt a lot like... empathy.”
Zani: “Empathy...?”
Abby: “Well, maybe telepathy? Not sure. It's hard to explain...”
Zani: “Telepathy... Yes, according to legend, the Sentinel speaks directly into the mind of the Laureate. Could that be what happened?”
Abby: “So the ‘Imperator’ is the Sentinel. But who's the ‘Lost’? Plus, it said it needs your help, but... a Sentinel shouldn't need to ask for help, wouldn't ya say? Eh, something's not adding up, what a headache...”
Rover: “We need to learn how the Sentinel talks to people. That Vitreum Dancer was trying to tell me something...”
Rover: (The Sentinel has countless ways to send a message, and through the Order is apparently the most convenient one, but why did they go through all the trouble...?)
Rover: (Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe calling for help was the only option? With that message left on Tethys... Could the Sentinel here be in a situation similar to Jué's? But it seems like the locals haven't laid eyes on their Sentinel. Everything feels off. That Echo might be our only lead right now.)
Rover: “Was the Echo performance hosted by the Montellis? I want to find out what caused that Echo to lose control.”
Zani: “Yes, it was. The Montelli family has been promoting the use of Reserved Terminals and Echoes. Most Ragunnesi use Common Echoes and don't know much about the Reserved ones. The Montellis spotted a chance and started researching Reserved Terminals. They push to bring back the Carnevale so they can showcase their Reserved Terminals, prove the quality of their Echoes, and attract both customers and investors. Oh sorry, just a minute.”
