Lagdou Ruins 1

Opening

narrator
Congratulations on beating the hack! However, the game is not quite over yet.
Lagdou Ruins has been repurposed into a fully-fledged postgame dungeon!
Choose the map option in extras to check it out if you want!
narator
As if led by a force beyond his very plane of existence, Lyon walked.
He walked and walked until he found himself at the entrance of Lagdou Ruins.
But something was different. Lyon couldn't say what, but...
He could tell. Something was not right here.
Fortunately, a great man without compare is here to guide him!
novala
Behold! Lagdou Ruins!
We've been here before, but things are different now.
lyon
What is happening? What are we doing here?
...And who are you?
(Novala balks.)
novala
W-Who am I?! Surely you jest!
I am Novala, the greatest sorcerer to ever live!
I welcome you... to the Postgame!
lyon
The what...?
novala
The adventure is over. Dramas were had, tears were shed.
That's all well and good, but where's the fun?
I say! It's time to relax and enjoy ourselves!
lyon
Look, I'm very busy.
I don't know how I got here, but I really should be on my--
novala
Nonsense, nonsense! Come, follow me.
This first floor may seem mundane enough...
But who knows what surprises the future holds?
lyon
Are you not listening? I just said I need to--
novala
And to top it all off...
(smiles) I, Novala, will be your chaperone throughout this side mode!
Hehehe... You may find this to be even better than the main campaign!
lyon
Somehow I doubt it.
Ah, well... Fine. Let's see what you've got.

When Franz is approached

franz
Oh, man. I'm gonna die a forgettable death again.
Is there nothing I can do to become stronger...?

(Franz perks up.)

(smiles) Oh, I know! I'll tap into the really old memes!

Spear
Don't you DARE do the mine glitch.
[+17 HP, +5 Strength, +4 Skill, +9 Speed, +4 Defense, +14 Resistance]

Explaining the Joke

This spear has the same stat boosts as Vaida's "Uberspear" from FE7, which is a popular target for the Mine glitch due to being unobtainable otherwise.

Combat

franz
Oh, c'mon! First boss again?

Death

franz
Why did Forde get three chapters and I only got one?!

Locations

House

old woman
Yes, I figured you'd find me here as well.
Well, I'm not giving you anything this time.
If you want experience, you can try next door.
I'll be watching from here, cheering on your opponents.
Hope you have a good time. Now leave my house.

Ending

orson
Ah... I remember this one. He was a knight of Renais.
What a shame... To die so young...
lyon
And twice, at that.
How come he's alive again, anyway?
Did I get assassinated in my sleep or something?
Is this my purgatory?
orson
No. This is just the Postgame.
lyon
...Okay, and what IS the Postgame?
orson
Yes, so young... So full of potential...
In another life, he might've been the second best character in the game.
Maybe third best. Ah, what a shame.
Seeing this almost makes me regret my choices...
lyon
Oh no you don't.
Look! Your wife!
(Monica slowly walks up to Orson while "Reunion" plays.)
monica
Darling... Darling... Darling...
orson
(smiles) Ah, my love... It does me good to see you again.
(frowns) And yet... I fear doubt has settled in my heart.
It won't be so easily cured of this malady...
lyon
Fine, here.
(Two more Monicas appear and walk towards Orson while a distorted rendition of "Reuinion" plays.)
monica 1
Darling... Darling... Darling...
monica 2
Darling... Darling...
monica 3
Darling, darling... Darling... Darling...
(Orson quivers with outrage.)
orson
H-How dare you?!
lyon
[offscreen]
I thought you'd enjoy this.
Wait, why am I invisible--
orson
My wife is special! She's one-of-a-kind!
Mere copies could never serve as a replacement!
O-Oh, no... Look what you've done! Which one is my Monica?!
All right, no problem... I'll ask them something only Monica would know.

Tell me, my love... What was that name I like you to call me?

monica 1
Darling.
monica 2
Orso-awesome!
monica 3
Oh, oh! My lil' Orsy-poo!
lyon
...I think I've seen about enough.
(Selena watches from afar while Pablo and Binks stand near the arena.)
selena
I would lie if I said I cannot sympathize.
Losing one's true love yields terrible, unending grief.
To be offered a second chance... It would be difficult to decline.

...The emperor is still so hot, even now...

pablo
Would you keep it down? Some of us are making money here!

(Pablo bounces with excitement.)

C'mon, Binks! Back into the arena you go!
We've only won three battles so far, and lost four at that!
This is unacceptable! Regain the money you've lost me NOW!

binks
Why don't you go into the arena? You can fight too!
pablo
Idiot! If I go into the arena, I might die!
There is no profit to be made in death!
I'll stay here cuddling with my money, thank you very much.
binks
Man, everyone's got a lifeless love interest except for me...
