I've found the princess.
#
She's unconscious, but alive.
#
However...
#
<name "Darx">
"What's this stuff?"
#
She's standing up with her arms behind her,
the entire lower half of her body trapped in
crystal.
#
<name "Meryl" "!DA0324">
"She's imprisoned in crystal."
#
<name "Darx">
"Why?"
#
<name "Meryl" "!DA0325">
"To use as decoration.
 Look around."
#
There's more crystals like this, with various
animals in them.
#
<name "Meryl" "!DA0326">
"Once they're completely encased, 
it's practically impossible to get them out."
#
I slam the crystal with my knife handle.
#
<name "Darx">
"It's hard."
#
<name "Meryl" "!DA0327">
"It's magic. Brute force isn't going to work."
#
<name "Darx">
"Then how do we get her out?"
#
<name "Meryl" "!DA0328">
"It's like a spell still in motion. 
 Our best bet is getting whoever started it
 to stop it."
#
<name "Darx">
"Got it.
 And the mad decoration is..."
#
...not here.
#
<name "Darx">
"Who did it?"
#
<name "Meryl" "!DA0329">
"I-I don't know."
#
Ugh.
#
To soothe my annoyance, I rub the princess's
tits.
#
Hm...
#
What?
#
They're fake.
#
It's all the top pushing her up.
#
When I get under that...
#
Yep, small.
#
No, tiny.
#
Ugh... How disappointing.
#

<name "Aleshia" "!RA0026">
"W-What do you think you're doing!?"
#
Looks like she's woken up.
#
<name "Darx">
"Being disappointed by your fake tits."
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0027">
"Y-You... How dare you reveal my sec..."
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0028">
"Huh? Ah!? 
 What's the meaning of this!?"
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0029">
"Who do you think I am!?
 I am the second princess of the Trilees
 Kingdom, Aleshia Trilees!"
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0030">
"Bow before me and free me at once!"
#
<name "Darx">
"..."
#
I rub her tits more.
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0031">
"S-Stop it, you brute!"
#
<name "Darx">
"Eeeeeh, you know..."
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0032">
"What?"
#
<name "Darx">
"Are you really in a position to be barking
 orders?"
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0033">
"Huh?"
#
<name "Darx">
"Look around."
#
<background "ev055a03.agf" 10>
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0034">
"...Oh? It's beautiful.
 There are animals and people inside them.
 The art's very well-made."
#
<name "Darx">
"You're well on your way to joining the
 exhibit."
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0035">
"H-Huh? I am?"
#
<name "Darx">
"You are."
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0036">
"...Who are you?"
#
<name "Darx">
"Your kidnapping has cause a lot of headaches
 for me. A bunch of people asked me to come
 save you, even though I really didn't want 
 to."
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0037">
"Then save me now.
 You'll be well rewarded."
#
<name "Darx">
"That was my plan, but now I don't feel like
 it."
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0038">
"Huh?"
#
<name "Darx">
"I hoped I'd find you in tears, thanking me
 with all your heart for coming to your
 rescue."
#
<name "Darx">
"Well, it's not like I was going to turn down
 the reward either..."
#
I turn to leave.
#
<background "ev055a02.agf" 10>
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0039">
"Stop!
 You intend to abandon me!?"
#
<name "Darx">
"I told you already.
 I'm under no obligation to save you."
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0040">
"...Wait."
#
<name "Darx">
"Yes?"
#
<background "ev055a04.agf" 10>
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0041">
"Please save me.
 I'm begging you."
#
<name "Darx">
"That's more like it. If you had been like this
 from the start, I wouldn't have had to say
 all those mean things."
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0042">
"Then..."
#
<name "Darx">
"If I save you, will you stop with the
 extermination campaigns?"
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0043">
"...What do you mean?"
#
<name "Darx">
"They're a headache."
#
<name "Darx">
"There's a ton of soldiers running around now
 looking for you, but there's been a bunch of
 people already because of your extermination
 campaigns."
#
Well, I was part of the first one...
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0044">
"They're no bother to you."
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0045">
"Ah. Are you an adventurer who doesn't want to
 see your job taken from you?"
#
<name "Darx">
"Hate to break it to you, but I'm not an
 adventurer."
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0046">
"Huh?"
#
<name "Darx">
"I'm with the demons."
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0047">
"...You're on their side?"
#
<name "Darx">
"Bingo."
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0048">
"I do not need your help.
 Leave!"
#
<name "Darx">
"Oh?"
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0049">
"W-What?"
#
I rub her tits.
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0050">
"Nnh..."
#
She's still trapped.
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0051">
"Ngh!"
#
But unlike before, she just glares at me.
#
So, not going to rant and rave at an enemy, 
huh?
#
The crystal's up to her waist.
#
Almost like it's protecting her chastity.
#
<name "Darx">
"Well, I didn't come here just to waffle over
 whether or not I should save your ass."
#
<name "Darx">
"If I just leave you here, that'll cause even
 more problems."
#
<name "Darx">
"I'll get you out of here, so tell me about the
 demon who did this to you."
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0052">
"..."
#
<name "Darx">
"If I ditch you, you'll probably head up 
 trapped in crystal from head to toe.
 Is that part of your royal plans?"
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0053">
"I-I was unconscious. I don't know very much."
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0054">
"But there was something...
 After I was caught, there was a demonic face
 inside a big flame that went by me..."
#
<name "Darx">
"Any idea, Meryl?"
#
<name "Meryl" "!DA0330">
"Maybe Bowar the Hot Head.
 If we're thinking about people near here,
 he could be it."
#
<name "Darx">
"Got it. Wait here.
 We'll pick up our argument after I deal with
 them."
#
<name "Aleshia" "!RA0055">
"..."
