"...If we wish for Tethe'alla to continue to flourish, the Chosen of Mana in the other world needs to be eliminated.
If the Chosen completes the World Regeneration, Tethe'alla will fall into ruin.
Do you accept this mission?"
"I wholeheartedly accept, your grace."
He's had it, he couldn't wait any longer. He was tired of waiting. He couldn't believe that the idiot king allowed the fate of Tethe'alla to rest in one girl's hands. That girl, Sheena Fujibayashi, had failed to come back with any good news. It's been weeks since her departure, and six days since she's checked in to ensure her safety. For all he knew, she could have already been dead. Reinforcement was needed, the Chosen of Sylvarant cannot be allowed to complete the World Regeneration.
"Guards!" The Pope yelled out. The Pope's personal guards came rushing in at his command. "I need an audience with the king."
"Your Majesty, it's been too long. What if the girl failed?" The Pope asked the King of Tethe'alla. "She may have put our world down a collision course!"
"Pope, I believe you worry too much. Sheena Fujibayashi is well trained. She will be perfectly fine." The King said, in hopes of convincing the Pope to stop worrying - but from the looks on the Pope's face, the King knew all too well that he wasn't happy with the answer.
"With all due respect, Your Highness, I don't believe she will be just fine. Sheena has failed before and costed many lives in Mizuho - this is the fate of the world, we cannot risk it." The Pope said sternly, he wasn't taking no for an answer. "We need to bring in reinforcement to make sure Sheena completes her mission."
"Is there someone that you have in mind?" The King asked curiously.
"Yes - I suggest Serenity Darkice of Ayrith." The Pope answered.
"And why Ms. Darkice in particular?"
"Well, your grace, Ms. Darkice is one of the most skilled fighters in Tethe'alla - beating many in the Coliseum. She's never lost a match." The Pope smiled. "She would be perfect."
"The girl may be perfect for fighting head on, but keep in mind, Pope, this is an assassination. I doubt she's been trained for that." The King rebuttled. "Sheena should be just fine - Sheena was trained to become an assassin."
"But, Your Grace, Sheena has not checked in at all in almost a week. What if the girl is already dead?" The Pope said. "The Chosen of Sylvarant may be well protected. Even if Sheena was alive, she may not be able to beat the Chosen's guards."
"Pope, would you feel more at ease if we did send this Serenity girl after Sheena?" The King asked.
"Yes." The Pope answered.
"Very well - have Serenity Darkice ready and on her way to Sylvarant by day's end. Inform the Renegade." The King stated.
"As you wish, your grace." The Pope bowed with a giant smirk on his face, noticeable by even the King.
