The Bigger Picture:
Depending on your progress in the story, characters you have yet to recruit may appear in these events.
- The Emperor: So you, too, are siding with them? Those worthless worms...
- Vayne: How to keep the peace is an integral part in the upbringing of the men of House Solidor.
- Vayne: Those who stand above exist for those below them.
- Vayne: We must now reassess our duties with the crystal core of light gone.
(Vayne exits into a Torsion)
- The Emperor: Hmph... What role has duty when one has dominion?
- Firion: This looks like the place where we met Cait Sith and the others.
- Onion Knight: It must have been created based on someone's home.
- Vaan: It feels...imperial...
- Ashe: It seems places like this are normal in other worlds.
- Vaan: Normal, huh...
(Vayne emerges from a Torsion)
- Mog: Why are you here, kupo!?
- Vayne: I understand you're distrustful of me.
- Ashe: What are you doing here, Vayne!?
- Vayne: ...I would like you to think of my appearance as my way of showing you my resolve.
- Vayne: If we continue to focus on our petty grudges, we will all miss out on the larger problem at hand.
- Vayne: However, I do not expect you to readily comprehend my meaning.
- Onion Knight: Well, of course not. You need to tell us what you're talking about first before we can understand it.
- Firion: But considering how things got this way, it might not be easy...
- Vaan: Like we could ever see eye to eye!
- Vaan: We don't have to listen to you!
- Vayne: My aim is to protect my home, nothing more.
- Ashe: Do you know how much blood has been shed for that very reason!?
- Vayne: Not just the boy, but the princess, too... I suppose we cannot talk like civilized people with all that blood rushing to your head.
- Vayne: Be that as it may...
- Vayne: I'm afraid I must insist on you seeing the larger problem looming above us.
- Vayne: And to that aim, I will first give you the fight you want.
- Vaan: You'll pay for what you've done, Vayne!
(Vayne attacks Ashe with Mach Wave)
- Vaan: Ashe! Are you okay?
- Onion Knight: Is this your way of insisting? Just what is your purpose here?
- Vayne: I've already told you: I must protect my home.
- Vayne: This is for that purpose alone.
- Firion: Mog, summon our allies.
- Mog: I'm on it, kupo!
(Mog leaves)
- Onion Knight: I thought you were here to talk...but if it's a fight you want, it's a fight you'll get!
- Vayne: I wouldn't have it any other way. Show me what you can do.
- Vayne: I will discern for myself whether your strength is of any use to me.
For Ivalice:
- Vaan: Urgh!
- Balthier: Can you stand?
- Vaan: Just what do you want!?
- Vayne: I have already obtained what I want.
- Onion Knight: What do you mean? Are you going to run away again?
- Vayne: Spirit moogle. These are my dimensional coordinates.
- Mog: You mean you'll be our ally, kupo!?
- Vayne: Call me freely should the need arise.
- Vaan: Just what are you scheming!?
- Vayne: I no longer wish to play puppet to the gods.
- Vaan: Answer the question!
- Cait Sith: Let's settle down a bit, Vaan, hm?
- Vaan: Why? Do you know something, Cait Sith?
- Cait Sith: No. But if you won't let Vayne explain, none of us will ever know.
- Vaan: I see... So he hasn't even told you.
- Vayne: I have discerned this: the danger present in this world is a threat to Ivalice.
- Vayne: However, despite the shattering of the crystal core of light, everything here remains unchanged.
- Vayne: How things fare in our own worlds is yet a mystery to me.
- Onion Knight: Materia said the crystal core of darkness is sustaining the world...for now.
- Vayne: I am looking for the crystal core of darkness.
- Vayne: I cannot grasp the size of the threat looming over my homeworld. It is an unfortunately grave state of affairs.
- Vayne: We need more information before we decide a course of action.
- Vayne: The fight against you earlier was a test of your strength. Of course, I leave the choice to call me to your discretion.
- Vayne: But I am not your enemy. Nor am I your ally. However, this arrangement works to our mutual advantage.
- Cait Sith: You certainly are a lad who loves his world. Even coming this far for it...
- Onion Knight: It doesn't exactly feel pleasant, but...I've got a friend like him.
- Vaan: I can't accept this. I know he'll just get in our way again.
- Vaan: Throw those coordinates away, Mog. I refuse to fight alongside him.
- Balthier: That's enough, Vaan. We're not throwing anything away.
- Balthier: His Majesty went out of his way to present us a gift. We ought to accept it.
- Mog: In that case, I'll hold onto it...
- Vayne: It will be an honor to be of service.
- Balthier: Don't think this means we like it, though.
- Vayne: It matters not to me. I wholeheartedly accept your hatred. I use my powers for Ivalice, not for the sake of friendship.
- Vayne: But there are objectives I cannot fulfill with those summoned by Spiritus.
- Vayne: Which is why I offer my power to you, in exchange for information.
- Balthier: Understand that we're not the ones being used. You are.
- Vayne: Then I pray you use my power well.
(Vayne exits via Torsion)
Putting Differences Aside:
(The party approaches Vaan and Ashe)
- Balthier: Is it so hard for you to accept Vayne's help?
- Vaan: Of course it is! Why isn't it for you?
- Ashe: Vayne is our enemy. It's not like we can readily fight alongside him...
- Cait Sith: Hmm... Think of it as insurance.
- Balthier: Yes, I suppose that's one way to think about it.
- Penelo: What do you mean?
- Cait Sith: Vayne's goal is clear.
- Cait Sith: If we do nothing about the disorder in this world, it could affect our homes.
- Cait Sith: And if harm is done to our homeworlds, then...
- Cait Sith: This world and all the warriors within it could be erased.
- Cait Sith: Or at least that's what he told me before.
- Vaan: We can't let that happen...
- Balthier: Then you understand. The time to put that grudge to pasture is now at hand.
- Balthier: We have his dimensional coordinates, which means we know where he is.
- Balthier: It's better than not knowing, correct?
- Ashe: Even so... It's hard to just put all that history behind us...
- Cait Sith: Spiritus's warriors always have all our info, so all the more reason to put it behind you.
- Vincent: Information even they can't know...
- Balthier: After all, it's not like they'll come together to decide their next move.
- Vincent: Indeed. Our enemies move alone. And we'll have more options if we can keep an eye on them.
- Vincent: Cait Sith... You're acquainted with him.
- Cait Sith: You got the right of it, Vincent!
- Cait Sith: I'll keep my eyes on the man! Just leave it to Cait Sith!
- Cait Sith: I know how politicians like him work.
- Penelo: Still, I can't help but worry...
- Vaan: ......
- Vincent: Don't force yourselves to accept it. The fact that he's an enemy won't change.
- Balthier: As does the fact that our troubles never cease to multiply.
- Balthier: Nevertheless, we'll keep an eye on Vayne while saving the world. Playing the leading man was never an easy job.
- Cait Sith: We know that your feelings toward him aren't wrong. But leave it to me. I'll find out his true intentions.
- Vaan: ...Thanks.
