Tuanano, Korlan
"This place is a dump."
"That what we're here to fix."
"Do they even know if this guy is real, I heard he's just a boogeyman."
"Well, we're going to find out soon."
Ringing
"What the fuck was-"
45 Minutes Later
"Where am I…?"
"Who... holy shit."
"You're Setsuko."
"You're the man who's been terrorizing Arepa."
"You're mistaken."
"I'm only here to free my people from Storinka..."
"And prevent any others from ruling us again."
"And I am no man."
"What do you mean free your people... who are you?"
"You're in no position to ask questions here."
"Now tell me, how can I get in contact with Lucerne."
"How would I know that?"
"I mean, surely there's some way. I can't get anyone into Kuwhara from here without them being shot down by either Korlan or Vau'sena."
"There might be a way."
"But so many people have tried it that it'll be heavily monitored."
"Go on..."
"If you can somehow get to Sonder, getting to Ponder won't be too hard."
"Crossing the Kuata Strait is impossible, that's the only way I'm afraid."
"You didn't take a lot of convincing to help me..."
"Well, there are a lot of guys in the military who know what Storinka has been doing."
"It's awful."
"But there's no fighting it, he's got so much power here."
"The propaganda he spreads, everyone loves him."
"You can join us."
"I can't. My family would be at risk."
"I'm sorry about that. But thank you."
"I'll have my friends let you free soon."
