(Belle, do you mind getting it?Belle, do you mind getting it? / Wise, can you get that?Wise, can you get that?)
Go to the door and take a look[]
- (Idle)
- (SiblingSibling): (Koleda as an elementary school student...Huh...Koleda as an elementary school student...Huh... /
Koleda looks like.. Can I laugh? Fine, I won't.Koleda looks like.. Can I laugh? Fine, I won't.)
- (Talk to Koleda)
- Hmm... that school uniform looks good on you.
- Koleda: So this is your first reaction? You're pretty good at chatting... NOT!
- Sweet, you got changed out of that uniform.
- Koleda: That uniform was so tight. I couldn't breathe in it...
- Koleda: Judging by how you're acting, I'm guessing you saw the video?
- Yep, I did.
- I was just about to forward it to ten of my friends.
- Koleda: You actually have ten friends... No way! Even one is too many!
- Koleda: Anyway, it's all Anton's fault. He thinks "seeing makes everything click" — and sent it without my permission...
- Koleda: But if it helps you to understand the mission a little better, that's a good thing.
- Koleda: I'll get straight to it. I want to hire you so you can help me investigate the Companion Hollow inside that school.
- Invite Koleda to the workshop, and talk over specifics about the commission...
Construction Suspicions[]
The following is recorded in the Video Archive
"Construction Suspicions"Video Summary: Belobog Industries won't turn a blind eye to things outside of their construction contract.
Story Description: It turns out Belobog Heavy Industries accepted an unusual project. Koleda needs your help in investigating the Hollow inside the school.
- (SiblingSibling): (So, you and Grace infiltrated the school to investigate a Hollow? I thought this was some sort of prank show...So, you and Grace infiltrated the school to investigate a Hollow? I thought this was some sort of prank show... /
So... You both decided to infiltrate the school to investigate a Hollow, in disguise? I thought this was some sort of prank show.So... You both decided to infiltrate the school to investigate a Hollow, in disguise? I thought this was some sort of prank show.) - Koleda: I never understood the point of those shows... Of course, it's for official business.
- Koleda: Okay, starting from the top... Hey! Don't look bored already. I'll make it short.
- Koleda: Belobog took a job to renovate that elementary school. The one you saw in the video.
- Koleda: When construction was finished, I went to check the site — and found that there was a new Companion Hollow nearby.
- Koleda: The Hollow is located in the abandoned parking lot just outside the construction area. It appeared recently, and if it's not contained, it might expand to the school.
- Koleda: We've been talking with the school's principal. I told him it's best to report the Hollow to the city administration, so they can deal with it.
- Can the city administration not deal with it?
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): And you're coming to us 'cause the city can't deal with it, aren't you?
- Koleda: It hasn't gotten that bad yet. From what I've seen of its size, if the Association sent someone, they should be able to deal with it.
- Koleda: But... That's what's weird. The principal didn't report the Hollow and didn't apply for Hollow compensation either...
- Koleda: He paid the rest of our fee the very next day. I've never seen a single client who doesn't drag their feet when it comes to payments.
- It's almost as if...
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (It's almost like... he wants Belobog off his tail.It's almost like... he wants Belobog off his tail. /
It's almost as if... They wanna get Belobog outta their hair.It's almost as if... They wanna get Belobog outta their hair.) - Koleda: Well, if we're going by normal industry practices, we'd have no reason to dig into this.
- Koleda: "After construction has been fully completed and inspections have been passed, Belobog holds no responsibility for any future impact caused by Hollows ."
- Koleda: Even if the Hollow really did end up affecting the school, this clause can protect Belobog from all consequences and responsibilities.
- Koleda: However, if that really ends up happening... the students and the teachers of that school may find themselves in danger.
- You won't stand by and let that happen.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (I see now. You aren't the type to stand by and let this happen.I see now. You aren't the type to stand by and let this happen. /
I get it now. And you aren't the type to just stand by and let this happen!I get it now. And you aren't the type to just stand by and let this happen!)
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (I see now. You aren't the type to stand by and let this happen.I see now. You aren't the type to stand by and let this happen. /
- There really is a need for investigating.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (It seems there really is a need to look into this Hollow.It seems there really is a need to look into this Hollow. /
Sounds like there's definitely a need to look into this Hollow, huh?Sounds like there's definitely a need to look into this Hollow, huh?)
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (It seems there really is a need to look into this Hollow.It seems there really is a need to look into this Hollow. /
- Koleda: That's right, (WiseWise /
BelleBelle). You hit the nail on the head, as expected. - Koleda: For certain reasons, Grace and I had to infiltrate the school in disguise to get access to the only entrance to the Hollow.
- Koleda: Anton helped us find some connections, and I left the daily operations to Ben. My responsibilities, I've just been handling at night...
- Koleda: Anyway — we've finally found the opportunity we needed. During the field trip to Lumina Square in a few days.
- Koleda: All the students and teachers will leave the school and head to the square. Even if the Hollow gets out of control, we can make sure as few people as possible are at risk.
- Koleda: So that's the situation. ...Belle, Wise, I assume you're gonna take the commission?
Once she's done, Koleda turns and leaves the video store.
Talk to Belle/Wise[]
- (SiblingSibling): (Seems like Koleda's made up her mind. But...Seems like Koleda's made up her mind. But... /

Rest up, she said she'd contact us once it's time to move.
- You rest comfortably, and now your mind feels exceptionally clear.
- (Receive a DM from Koleda)
Do you remember the commission from last time?
REPLYInfiltrating the elementary school's Hollow...?
You're good.
Nope, I completely forgot
You forgot already?... Alright, you better forget about the footage too.
Today's plan is to head to Lumina Square, get the "key," and then enter the Hollow.
I'll explain the details when you get here.
We'll wait for you at Lumina Square.
Find Koleda at Lumina Square[]
- (Idle, by the counter)
- (SiblingSibling): (Lumina Square... Shall we drive there? The car's in the parking lot!Lumina Square... Shall we drive there? The car's in the parking lot! /
The car's ready in the parking lot. Let's drive to Lumina Square.The car's ready in the parking lot. Let's drive to Lumina Square.)

- Grace: Where did those three little ones go?
- (Talk to Koleda and Grace)
Necessary Prep[]
The following is recorded in the Video Archive
"Necessary Prep"Video Summary: Some work needs doing in secret... and quickly.
Story Description: You need to get the key from the principal to access the Hollow. You'll have to create an opportunity during the off-campus practice at Lumina Square.
- Grace: (WiseWise /
BelleBelle), you're here! How's Eous doing? Is your (sistersister / brotherbrother) taking good care of that little cutie? - Grace: I got my hands on some amazing lubricant from the Outer Ring. If you put some into the Bangboo's base, it can drip out of the eyes! How about Eous give it a go?
- Koleda: Hey, aren't you a teacher right now? Did you leave your character along with that dress at home?
- Grace: Oh my, I almost forgot! So, little Koleda, how about you call me "teach" and help me get back into character?
- Koleda: ...
- Koleda: Ms. Grace, there's three students hiding 'cause they had a fight. If we don't find them, we can't do the choir.
- Grace: Well, that just won't do! Unfortunately, Ms. Grace still has some stuff to take care of, alright? So can Koleda go and find them with this Pro... with this (young manyoung man /
young ladyyoung lady)? - Grace: If you manage to find them, then... As a reward, Ms. Grace will give you the hammer she forged at a university internship!
- Koleda: Wha—What? Shouldn't you give out a star sticker or snacks or something?
- I want the hammer.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (Ms. Grace, can I have the hammer?Ms. Grace, can I have the hammer? /
I'll take the hammer for my brother!I'll take the hammer for my brother!)
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (Ms. Grace, can I have the hammer?Ms. Grace, can I have the hammer? /
- I want a star sticker.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (I want a star sticker, Ms. Grace.I want a star sticker, Ms. Grace. /
Ms. Grace, I want a star sticker!Ms. Grace, I want a star sticker!)
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (I want a star sticker, Ms. Grace.I want a star sticker, Ms. Grace. /
- Grace: So long as you find those three kids and convince them to come back to join the choir, you can have whatever you want...
- Grace: The only entrance to the Hollow is in the abandoned parking lot near the school. We've already confirmed that the keys to the parking lot are with the principal. Usually, we wouldn't get a chance to get near him, but today...
- Grace: The principal will come to see the choir. While his attention is on the performance, we can figure out a way to steal his keys.
- Grace: So the only way to obtain the keys is to ensure the choir goes ahead with no issues. That's why we need to deal with those three little ones who had an argument. Can I leave this to you?
- I suppose we have to.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (I suppose we have to...I suppose we have to... /
Welp, I guess we have to.Welp, I guess we have to.) - Grace: I'll wait for the good news then! Little Koleda, Ms. Grace is appointing you as the leader of your little team!
- Koleda: Who the hell wants to be the leader of a team with just one member?
- Koleda: Emmie, Lisha, and Dan — the three of them were causing trouble and wouldn't sing in the choir.
- Koleda: They're normally joined at the hip. Why are they fighting today? ....Children are nothing but trouble.
- Koleda: I have stacks of paperwork on my desk about company projections, but now I have to hang around and deal with people's pineapple buns... This really isn't a good fit for me!
- So what are you doing here, Koleda?
- Koleda: You mean, why am I wearing a school uniform and masquerading as an exchange student?
- Koleda: ...I don't want to be doing it! Who would?
- Koleda: The original plan was for Ben and Grace to dress up as teachers. If you had to guess who has the most patience out of all of us, you'd probably think Ben, right?
- Koleda: Unfortunately, as soon as Ben walked into a classroom, the poor kids were in tears before he opened his mouth. So, I got subbed in with Grace at the last minute.
- Koleda: Ben was in tears, apologizing. Of course, it wasn't his fault... Those kids are at the age where they judge books by their covers.
- Are pineapple buns really that nice?
- Koleda: Day in and day out, pineapple buns are the only thing that perk me up a bit.
- Koleda: I don't mean to sound so defeatist, but it's just how it is.
- Koleda: Every day, I speak in a high-pitched voice, go to the bathroom in groups, swap stickers, pass notes, slack off in gym class, and mess around during choir practice...
- Koleda: I just want to go to the bathroom alone! Really, I'd rather drop into a Hollow and hang out with Ethereals than go into a girl's school bathroom again and listen to all that gossip about boys...
- Koleda: ...Am I complaining too much? Sorry, forget I said anything.
- Koleda: Our top priority now is finding those three students. Come with me. Let's see what the class gossip knows.
Gather information from The All-Knowing[]
- (Idle)
- Grace: I'll be in trouble if we can't find the little ones before the principal arrives!
- (Idle, by the tree)
- Nervous Girl: It's almost time to sing in front of the principal. I'm so nervous...
- Nervous Girl: The dark ocean~ *sobs*
- Encouraging Girl: ...
- Encouraging Girl: It's alright! It wasn't off-pitch at all, really!
- (Idle, by Beaverson Beauty Salon)
- Lone Boy: I really want it! Mom, get me this!
- Lone Boy: ...Ah, I forgot. Mommy is already...
- (Idle, in front of Gravity Cinema)
- Ambitious Boy: My dream is to become an actor!
- Ambitious Boy: In the future, you can watch my movies in this cinema!
- Ambitious Girl: Th—Then I want to be a director! I'll make you look really good!
- Supportive Girl: ...I'll be part of the audience.
- (Idle)
- The All-Knowing: Gossip will surround me if I stand absolutely still!
- The All-Knowing: I wish I could be someone like that...
- (Talk to The All-Knowing)
- "The All-Knowing": It's Koleda — the mystery exchange student! I'm dying to bump into her while she's running with a piece of toast in her mouth!
- Trying to make trouble?
- Koleda, you're so popular...
- Koleda: Sorry, I had a granola bar for breakfast.
- "The All-Knowing": Ohh! So you're big and tall because you eat granola bars? I'll start eating them tomorrow, then!
- Koleda: Enough already about granola. I heard Emmie, Lisha, and Dan were squabbling about something... What have you heard?
- "The All-Knowing": Ahem! I may only have cornflakes for breakfast, but I still know what's happening around here. Seems like Dan and Lisha are mad at Emmie!
- "The All-Knowing": I just bumped into Dan and Lisha, and they both said they were gonna hide somewhere and not meet up with Emmie...
- Koleda: Hide? Where do they plan on hiding?
- "The All-Knowing": I'm not sure, but I think they said... it's the "grown-ups' favorite spot"!
- "The All-Knowing": I'm afraid only grown-ups know where their favorite place is...
- Koleda: Proxy, what do you say? The place nearby, which you could call "a grown-up's favorite spot" is... over here, right?
- It must be Coff Cafe!
- Koleda: That's what I was thinking, too. You wouldn't be wrong in saying coffee is fuel for a grown-up.
- Koleda: I guess you've never seen Grace before she's had her morning coffee; she wouldn't notice if you packed her up and sold her off to the highest bidder.
- It's gotta be Old Duyi's Massage.
- Koleda: Ah, that's right. Desk jockeys have necks that are tougher than diamonds.
- Koleda: Ben was a regular over at Old Duyi's Massage. He'd go in after he closed the books every month. Maybe I could give him a gift card from there for his birthday...
- Koleda: Besides those two places, there doesn't seem to be anywhere nearby that counts as a "grown-up's favorite spot"...
- Koleda: Okay, let's go take a look over at Coff Cafe and Old Duyi's Massage.
Ask around for information nearby[]
- (Idle)
- Art Commissioner: Starlight Knights would never drink something bitter like coffee...
- Art Commissioner: Starlight Knights only drink the sweet sparkling water that they endorse!
- (Talk to Art Commissioner near Coff Cafe)
- Art Commissioner [sic][Note 3]: Lisha and Dan? Aren't they supposed to be here at the coffee shop?
- Art Commissioner: I saw them walking past here. I think they were going...
- Koleda: Where? Where'd they go?
- Art Commissioner: Hang on, why should I tell you, Koleda?
- Art Commissioner: Dan and I are both Starlight Knights enthusiasts! Giving up a fellow enthusiast's whereabouts would be like a sidekick backstabbing their own lead knight!
- Art Commissioner: Hmm... Even if the sidekick in the movies is always so cool... yet always returns to the lead's side in the end... but then expectedly...
- Actually, I'm a bit of an enthusiast, too.
- Koleda: ...Hey! Th—Those visual FX movies are for kids. I ain't seen a single one of 'em!
- Art Commissioner: Huh? Seems Koleda is having quite the life. Does she really watch visual FX movies...
- Art Commissioner: If really you are an enthusiast, it wouldn't be impossible to tell you which way Dan and Lisha went. Let's see it then, prove your purity, and tell me: What was the pivotal line from last year's release?
- Feel the ultimate starnight!
- Koleda: ...Proxy, are you sure? ...Uh, I seem to recall it being "Feel the ultimate starnight!," right?
- Art Commissioner: No, no, no, you didn't pass the purity test!
- Feel the ultimate starlight!
- Koleda: ...Proxy, are you sure? ...Uh, I seem to recall it being "Feel the ultimate starlight!," right?
- Art Commissioner: Correct! Absolutely correct! The mysterious exchange student Koleda, who's great at sports, is, in fact, a Starlight Knight enthusiast. Wow, this is just... it's just...
- Feel the ultimate starshine!
- Koleda: ...Proxy, are you sure? ...Uh, I seem to recall it being "Feel the ultimate starshine!" right?
- Art Commissioner: The S—Starlight Knight would never say such a line! You've failed the purity test!
- Art Commissioner: Wonderful! Touching! Miraculous! ...But I'm also worried about our small circle being invaded by normies, you know what I mean?
- Koleda: No idea what you mean. But now you should be able to tell me where Dan and Lisha went, right?
- Art Commissioner: Those two went to the parking lot... by the way, besides the port and the abandoned factory, the parking lot was the third most iconic shooting location for "Starlight Knight." Cool, huh?
- Koleda: A parking lot...
- Koleda: Why would someone think a parking lot would be a "grown-up's favorite spot." But it does look like they went to the parking lot. So let's go take a look.
- (Idle)
- Keyholder: Man can only realize his own existence when he suffers.
- Keyholder: That's why grown-ups like to pay Old Duyi to beat them up...
- (Talk to Keyholder next to Old Duyi's Physiotherapy Studio)
- Keyholder [sic][Note 3]: Huh? Lisha and Dan aren't here.
- Keyholder: I saw where they went, but... to tell you the truth, right now, I'm consumed with an important philosophical problem.
- Keyholder: If I don't think this through now, I'm going to have a nervous breakdown thirty years from now. If you can help, I'll tell you what you need to know... What do you say?
- Okay. What's the problem?
- Keyholder: Alright. Have you ever wondered... why there's never any pineapple... inside a pineapple bun?
- Koleda: ...How is THAT going to trigger a nervous breakdown?
- There never has been any pineapple.
- Koleda: Pineapple buns contain no pineapple. Their name probably comes from looking similar to pineapples.
- Keyholder: Ah, so we can use etymology to convincingly dispel our doubts? People previously used accumulated experience as an anchor point of existence while embracing collective knowledge — it's a way of survival for many in the world.
- Grace swiped it.
- Koleda: Pineapple buns SHOULD contain pineapple. Otherwise, I'm guessing Grace swiped it.
- Keyholder: I see, so it's all a conspiracy. Doubt everything everyone says, and only believe judgments based on your experiences in life. In extreme situations, that's also a strict approach to survival that's not to be mocked.
- Mine always has pineapple in it. Yours doesn't?
- Koleda: Your pineapple bun actually has no pineapple in it? Mine clearly does right here.
- Keyholder: I see, so we anchor our sense of value to a false spiritual existence when faced with existential questions. As long as you believe you're eating pineapple, the pineapple exists. As long as you believe in the existence of divine beings, then you are blessed. That's a fortunate form of survival.
- Keyholder: Thank you, Koleda. You've truly given me much food for thought.
- Koleda: Don't say that — my brain feels scrambled.
- Keyholder: I really hate eating at home, so I thought about going all in on pineapple buns as my primary food. Luckily, you warned me against the perils of such a lifestyle... From now on, I'll do my best not to be a picky eater!
- Koleda: ...So the problem was you're a picky eater?
- Keyholder: Oh yeah, Lisha and Dan were heading over to the parking lot, I think. Go over and take a look.
- Koleda: A parking lot...
- Koleda: Why would someone think a parking lot would be a "grown-up's favorite spot." But it does look like they went to the parking lot. So let's go take a look.
Find Lisha and Dan[]
- (Idle)
- Dan: Whenever I see a car, I always worry that there might be a cat underneath.
- Lisha: Emmie doesn't like being dirty so she never lies down on the ground to look...
- (Interact with Dan at the NEPS parking lot)
- Lisha: "I'm not afraid of the dark sea~ Though just a fish I may be~"
- Lisha: "The sailboat is my best friend~ Taking me to the water park's end~"
- Dan: Lisha, quit singing, will ya? Emmie's ditched us as friends. What's the point of singing?
- Lisha: "I'm not afraid of the dark sea~ Though just a fish I may be~"
- Lisha: "The sailboat~ is my best friend... Taking me... to the water park's end... *crying*"
- Dan: Lisha...
- Lisha: But... I really do like this song.
- Lisha: Dan, do you still remember this? We finished writing the words, and Emmie was complaining that the song sounded "so dumb" while writing the music.
- Lisha: This is... our song, the three of us created it together. I remember her giggling when it was chosen for the class performance.
- Dan: Course I remember! Us three have always been close! So... why didn't she tell us about something as important as transferring to another school?
- Lisha: Emmie said so herself — her dad suddenly wanted to pull her from school... Maybe something's going on.
- Dan: She still should've told us! We wouldn't tell anyone! We went "exploring" in the Hollows before, didn't we? We didn't tell anyone about that...
- Ahem.
- Koleda: Ahem...
- Lisha: Wahh!
- Dan: Is that Koleda? Did you hear what we were... saying just now?
- Lisha: Koleda, great timing. There's something I need your help with!
- Lisha: Emmie is transferring away, but she didn't tell Dan or me about it, and we're not happy about it... But today, the choir was going to sing our song, and we wanted her to be there.
- Dan: Speak for yourself! I'm still mad at her!
- Lisha: Don't be angry. Next month, Emmie won't even be around anymore. Shouldn't we spend time with her before she leaves, Dan?
- Dan: ...
- Koleda: I can go and give Emmie your message. But where is she right now?
- Dan: Emmie... I think she was out of hand sanitizer, so she's probably gone to the convenience store.
- Dan: She's a bit of a clean freak. Hmph, normally Lisha and me would carry a spare one for her... But now, there's no way we're doing that! We're never going to look out for her ever again!
- Koleda: So you'd notice details, like running out of hand sanitizer...!
- (Talk to Dan and Lisha again, optional)
- Koleda: By the way, why do you two think a parking lot is a "grown-up's favorite spot."?
- Lisha: Eh? Don't adults like parking lots? My mom's favorite place is a parking lot!
- Lisha: Every day, my mom gets off work and plays on her phone in the parking lot while Dad finishes cooking... Because she loves the parking lot, right?
- Lisha: ...If she doesn't like the parking lot... d—does that mean mom doesn't like dad...
- Dan: I always thought that adults were obsessed with parking lots.
- Dan: When we went "exploring" with Emmie, we'd always see adults wearing these strange helmets walking in and out of the school parking lot...
- Koleda: Hang on, you mean the abandoned parking lot? These people coming and going, were any of them wearing strange clothing?
- Dan: These adults were dressed like troublemakers the Starlight Knight would take down... Don't tell me it really is the set for Starlight Knight!
Talk to Emmie[]
- (Idle)
- Emmie: Hand sanitizer smells amazing...
- Emmie: It may be slightly irritating, but it's reassuring to smell.
- (Talk to Emmie by 141 Convenience Store)
- Emmie: Question: What is the minimum amount of time needed to clean your hands using hand sanitizer?
- 30 seconds?
- You're asking me that?
- Emmie: You won't be able to kill all the germs on your hands unless you scrub for at least 30 seconds.
- Emmie: Spreading germs to other people is irresponsible. I hate people who are not responsible.
- Emmie: So... can you two please clean your hands before touching me?
- You borrow Emmie's hand sanitizer and clean your hands for 30 seconds.
- Emmie: Hmm, good job. Koleda, what do you need from me?
- Koleda: At times like this, I should say...
- Miss Grace is looking for you.
- Koleda: Miss Grace asked me to bring you back in time for class choir.
- Dan and Lisha are looking for you.
- Koleda: Your friends Lisha and Dan... want me to tell you that they want to sing with you.
- Emmie: ...Am I the only one who thinks that choir is stupid?
- Emmie: "I'm not afraid of the dark sea, though just a fish I may be."
- Emmie: I've never seen lyrics this cringe before. It hurts to read.
- Emmie: What does "The sailboat is my best friend" mean? How can a marine creature be a sailboat's partner? How do we know it's not a fishing vessel?
- Emmie: "Taking me to the water park's end"? The only place for fish at a water park is on the barbecue.
- Emmie: The only ones who'd write that are those two idiots, Lisha and Dan...
- Emmie: ...Hey. Are they still mad at me?
- Dan is.
- Koleda: Dan is still mad. For kids like you... I mean, "us," a friend transferring schools is like the most hostile of corporate takeovers. It would be weird to NOT react badly.
- Emmie: ...Yeah? I don't know anyone who values friendship more than Dan. I suppose it's normal to be mad about me transferring away...
- Lisha isn't mad anymore.
- Koleda: Lisha cried a little but isn't mad at you anymore. Isn't that what childhood friendship is all about?
- Emmie: ...Yeah? Hmm, Lisha really is a big softie. I didn't tell her about transferring schools because I knew she'd definitely cry...
- Emmie: But it's my fault for not telling them sooner.
- Emmie: I've been thinking about other stuff lately and must have ignored their feelings without realizing... I'll apologize to them when we get back.
- Emmie: I want to explain something to you clearly, Koleda — It's me who wants to apologize.
- Emmie: I'm apologizing because I care about friends, not because you're pretending to be a grown-up!
- Koleda: ...
- Koleda: Later on, I'm going to ask Grace... Was I this ungrateful as a child?
Pass on the information to Grace[]
- (Idle 1)
- Koleda: I'm finally done with the three of them...
- Koleda: Ahem, are you all right?
- (Idle 2)
- Lisha: Emmie loves the smell of hand sanitizer...
- Dan: Hmph! It'll poison her sooner or later!
- Lisha: Whoa~ What if she gets poisoned?
- Dan: Send her to the hospital, of course!
- (Talk to Grace)
- Grace: You're back! It had to be you, (WiseWise /
BelleBelle), the leader we all need to get Koleda to wrap up the mission safe and sound! - Koleda: Hey, wait a minute. Didn't we agree that I'm the team leader?
- Grace: Alright, alright. Let's give another task to our leader, Koleda — go get all the kids together!
- Grace: Just in time, actually. The principal is almost here... You've dealt with him before. Remember to tell everyone to hide, and don't let the principal see you!
- Koleda: You don't need to remind me. Just make sure there are no slip-ups when it's time to snag those keys, sis!
- Grace: Hmm? Did you just call me "sis," or "miss"?
- Koleda: Oh, shut up...
Before the Choir[]
The following is recorded in the Video Archive
"Before the Choir"Video Summary: Do your friends from elementary school still remember you?
Story Description: Koleda mediated a conflict between Emmie and the other children, providing you with a chance to approach the principal.
- Emmie: Dan, Lisha... I'm sorry. It's all my fault.
- Dan: Your fault? It's not like you need stupid friends like us. Once you're at that rich kid school, you can probably get better friends...
- Lisha: C'mon now. If you're afraid of Emmie getting taken away by new friends, you should transfer with her!
- Dan: It's not that simple... Wait, no! Then we'll be leaving you all alone. I don't want that!
- Lisha: That wouldn't be okay?
- Dan: I—It's not okay...
- Emmie: Hey, calm down. Lisha was just joking.
- Emmie: Even if I transfer, we'll still be BFFs.
- Emmie: Just like the fish and the boat. Even though the boat went to the waterpark, it was still the fish's best friend, right?
- Dan: ...Wait, didn't you say you thought those lyrics were stupid?
- Emmie: They are.
- Dan: ...
- Emmie: But, not as stupid as me. I was so stupid that I didn't tell you about something as important as transferring schools because I was so scared I'd make you two mad.
- Dan: Emmie, you aren't stupid! You're the coolest kid I know! I love being your friend!
- Lisha: Hm, well, even though the new transfer student Koleda is pretty cool, I like Dan and Emmie the most!
- Emmie: Ugh, don't bring up that imposter.
- Lisha: Oooo~ Is Emmie jealous?
- Koleda: Uh... Hey. Ms. Grace says we need to get to the choir.
- Lisha: Uh-oh, it looks like she heard you!
- Koleda: Nope. I didn't hear anything. I wouldn't care even if I did. I have more important things to worry about than my popularity among some little ki—...
- Koleda: Oh fudge, the principal. I'm gonna hide for now, Proxy. Could you head over to the choir and check on things in a bit?
- Koleda hides.
Talk to Grace[]
- (Idle 1)
- Grace: Everyone, get ready to sing!
- Elton: G—Good... Very good. Hmm, excellent. Haha... Mmm...
- (Idle 2)
- Emmie: The dark...
- Dan: Ocean~
- Lisha: I'm not afraid of you~
- Nervous Girl: ♪~
- Encouraging Girl: Lalala~
- (Talk to Grace)
Got the Key[]
The following is recorded in the Video Archive
"Got the Key"Video Summary: Grace has discovered a new special skill.
Story Description: Grace took the key while the principal was listening to the children singing. You can go to the Hollow now.
- Grace: Thanks to you all, the choir is back to business. Now for the key.
- Grace: That principal sure is immersed in the singing. I just checked — he put his keys in his pocket.
- Grace: Now, we just need to carefully approach him... Give me a signal for when I should strike!
- Principal Elton: Ah... Not bad... Oh wow, wow... Mmm... Beautiful singing, yes!
- Now!
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Now, Grace!
- Grace: Here goes! ...Tsk. He bent down to kick some dust off his shoes. Is that really necessary? It's not like he's heading into a lab...
- No, wait a little longer...
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Wait just a little longer...
- Grace: Alright, I'll wait for your signal.
- Principal Elton: Good, very good. Mm... Everyone is in sync...
- Now!
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Now.
- Grace: Ah, I got it! Oh wait, no! Drat, it slipped out of my grasp. Urgh, why didn't Anton let me bring that magnetic arm?
- No, wait a little longer...
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (Not yet, wait just a little longer.Not yet, wait just a little longer. /
Not quite, wait a bit more.Not quite, wait a bit more.) - Grace: Wait again? The song is almost over... Fine, I'll wait for your signal.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (Not yet, wait just a little longer.Not yet, wait just a little longer. /
- Principal Elton: What's with these lyrics...?
- Now, Grace!
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Okay, now!
- Go, Grace!
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Go, Grace!
- Grace: Alright! Got it!
- Principal Elton: Huh? Ms. Grace... Wh—Why are you so close? You weren't this outgoing during the interview!
- Grace: Er... I... Well—
- Emmie: Mr. Principal.
- Principal Elton: Oh... Emmie, good job just now!
- Emmie: Thank you. Uhm. Y'know your clothes are dirty? They're covered in dust. I think Ms. Grace just wanted to help you dust them off.
- Principal Elton: Hm? Dust? ...Oh, this dust, I... accidentally got it on me... Yes, it's chalk! I accidentally got chalk on me!
- Principal Elton: As a principal, it's normal for there to be chalk on my clothes. It would be stranger if there wasn't any chalk!
- Principal Elton: O—On the other hand, Ms. Grace, your outfit is strange. As a teacher and—and a model to your students, what do you have to say for yourself?
- Grace: Oops, sorry, guess I won't wear it again.
- Principal Elton: Ahem. Although your outfit lacks sophistication, as a new teacher, this field trip of yours was quite a success.
- Principal Elton: We must view these things in separation. Nothing is just black or white. Most of us are shades of gray.
- Principal Elton: Alright, I have other things to do now. Ms. Grace, I shall leave the children to you. Please bring them back to school safely.
- Dusting himself off, the Principal leaves in a hurry.
- Grace: This guy's like a broken water pump with all the meaningless noise he makes...
- Grace: (WiseWise /
BelleBelle), I've given the key to Koleda. She's headed off to get Anton and Ben for the next part of the plan. You should head back and prepare. She'll be in contact soon.
Return to the video store and talk to Belle/Wise[]
- (Idle 1)
- Grace: Kids! Oh, I mean students.
- Grace: The numbers should be correct, right? ...Let me count again.
- Grace: I'm really bad at counting living things...
- (Idle 2)
- Dan: My throat's so dry...
- Lisha: I need some teamilk!
- Emmie: I want to go home...
- (Talk to (BelleBelle /
WiseWise)) - (SiblingSibling): Grace succeeded. Now we wait for Koleda to contact us.
- (SiblingSibling): (Wise, get some rest! Want some carrot chips?Wise, get some rest! Want some carrot chips? /
You should get some rest, Belle. Would you like some carrot chips?You should get some rest, Belle. Would you like some carrot chips?) - Take a Break (Leave Story)
