Loose Ends
By: Rebecca
Difficulty: **
Oh, I hope I'm not being a bother... I need help reaching the Forsaken Lands' Abandoned City.
Could someone not too busy meet me in the Palace's War Room? Thank you, sweethearts.
.
-Rebecca's waiting for you in the Forsaken Lands' Abandoned City!
Ant Palace, War Room
Rebecca: Oh, it's you young'uns!
Leif: Rebecca... You'll really go to the Abandoned City? For what purpose?
Rebecca: It may look a bit dreadful... But I have many great memories there.
Rebecca: Won't you come with me? I have a tale or two to share.
Ant Lieutenant: Absolutely not!
Ant Lieutenant: There is no way you're stepping outside this castle!
Ant Lieutenant: Have you forgotten your age?
Rebecca: ...Now, that's not very kind.
Rebecca: These young'uns saved the Kingdom! I have nothing to fear.
Kabbu: ...She's right about that. We promise to keep her safe.
Vi: For a good pri- Ow!
(minibubble) Kabbu: Not today!
Ant Lieutenant: ...............................…
Ant Lieutenant: ...Only if I go as well. Please, Rebecca.
Rebecca: Hoho, I'd love that! Let's get going, then.
Ant Lieutenant: ...See you there, Team Snakemouth.
Forsaken Lands, Abandoned City
Ant Lieutenant: Good grief... This place is harrowing.
Vi: Um, do you really like this place?
Rebecca: …
Kabbu: Um, Miss Rebecca?
Rebecca: Elizant... We shared so many meals here.
Leif: You both crossed this place?
Rebecca: Every day I tried just a little harder with my Plumpling Pies…
Rebecca: This place may seem barren, but it was our lovely camp.
Vi: That's kinda hard to imagine…
Ant Lieutenant: ...
Ant Lieutenant: Tch... As I feared!
Rebecca: Oh dear…
Leif: Stay close to us!
(minibubble) Vi: Here we go!
Ant Lieutenant: I'll assist you as well!
[post-battle]
Rebecca: Thank you, sweethearts. How scary…
Ant Lieutenant: Huff… Was this risk truly worth it, Rebecca...?
Rebecca: Of course.
Leif: Even if you camped here... Rebecca, we should head back.
Rebecca: I didn't get to finish my tale... Won't you hear me out for a little while longer?
Vi: Eh, we're already here so...
Rebecca: Before Queen Elizant was put to sleep, she said…
Rebecca: "See you soon, my friend. Or so I hope."
(minibubble) Leif: ...
Rebecca: Ellie is a wonderful queen. She really is her mother's daughter.
Rebecca: When I heard she destroyed the Everlasting Sapling…
Rebecca: It took me some days to finally accept it.
Rebecca: Elizant won't be sharing any more meals with me...
(minibubble) Vi: ...
Leif: Rebecca... We're sorry. If it wasn't for the Wasp King…
Ant Lieutenant: Why did you never share these burdens? You always seemed so happy…
Rebecca: Hohoho... I am happy! After all...I'm sure she would be happy.
Rebecca: I'm so proud of Ellie, too…
Rebecca: Do you understand why I needed to return?
Kabbu: ...Yes. This is a proper way to pay your respects.
Leif: We're glad we could come. We...needed this too. Thank you, Rebecca.
Rebecca: I won't hold you here any longer. I'm very grateful.
Ant Lieutenant: ...So am I. Team Snakemouth, please take this.
Vi: We should, um...go back. You can tell us a lot more stuff at the palace!
Leif: Yeah... We'd like that.
Kabbu: I'll lead the way, then!
Rebecca: (Goodbye, my dear Queen...)
