第六关（后）

...We should stuff him into a sack...

...and hang him on the mast at dawn...

...We should slit his throat...

...and offer him to the ocean as a tribute to the raging hurricane...

Ugh!

...that same dream again.

Who is it?

...Oh, it's just you. Hm, I can't even seem to remember your name.

That doesn't matter. Just treat me like any normal Rhodes Island operator.

You look like you're in pain.

It's just another nightmare.

Dark fragments swirling in my consciousness, hidden beneath the shadows of that broken church...

When I approach them, they turn into shackles and drag me down into the deep sea.

But soon, there will be a way to escape your torment.

Heh, is that so? That'd be great. But why should I trust you?

Heh.

Your aura... I'm quite familiar with it.

No, it's your smell. It's an intense, pungent smell... the smell of blood... 'their' smell. The smell of the deep sea.

It's a familiar and abhorrent smell.

Is that so?

Can you tell me your name?

Skadi.

Interesting. So, why did you decide to show up here?

You're not supposed to be here without permission from Kal'tsit, unless you're not afraid of me ripping you to pieces.

I am afraid. Just like everyone else. However, I'm used to fear.

It's time to go. By the time I come back, things may have already moved forward. However, you can forget all about me, just like before.

Where are you going?

To where the secret is buried.

A place far, far away from you.
