Seven Down

[Akasaka - Palace] [18:30]
You find your friends, who seem to be waiting for someone...

Daichi: Ah! There he is! You're late!

> Sorry for the holdup.

Al Saiduq: No, you are on time. The hour has finally come to finish the fight against Benetnasch.

> Who're you waiting for?

Al Saiduq: You, of course, Shining one. The hour has come to finish the fight against Benetnasch.

> You got the wrong guy!

Al Saiduq: ...You look like yourself, Shining One. We must finish the fight against Benetnasch.

Daichi: Ugh, now I'm nervous! Will this work? L-Like with Trumpeter and stuff...?

> We'll be fine.

Al Saiduq: Yes. Second guessing yourself will not change the outcome. We must trust in you humans.

> I'm nervous too.

Al Saiduq: Second guessing yourself will change nothing. We must trust in you human's strengths.

Daichi: R-Right... from what I've heard, the Void's already taken Itabashi and Nerima.
Daichi: This area won't last much longer... we gotta hurry and get this done!

> It's around the corner...
> We're in real trouble.

Al Saiduq: Which means we have no time to waste. Let us go, Shining One.

[The party arrives on the battlefield.]

Al Saiduq: There it is. ...Benetnasch.

Daichi: H-Hey, this is really gonna work, right!? What if he makes our demons return again...?

Al Saiduq: We should be all right, as long as that demon is present. ...Isn't that right?

[Trumpeter flies in.]

Trumpeter: ...I will keep my vow. It is your wish that I sound my horn here, correct?

> Yes, please.
>You've got to do it!

Trumpeter: Very well. I will obey my pledge and grant thy wish here.

[Trumpeter plays]

Al Saiduq: Now... Benetnasch's special emanations should be canceled, as we have planned.

Daichi: R-Right...! But it's about to get really serious. We won't be able to summon demons...!

> We're ready for that.
> It's going to be tough.

Al Saiduq: Indeed. After we summon demons now, we will only have those ones to do battle with.
Al Saiduq: In layman's terms, we will be unable to summon new demons for this battle's duration...

> I know.
> We'll have to be careful.

Daichi: Wait a sec... if Trumpeter's canceling whatever it is that Benetnasch is doing...
Daichi: If he stops playing, then won't that mean his jamming effect stops, too?
Daichi: That means... we've got to keep Trumpeter safe while we're fighting the other enemies!

Al Saiduq: Of course. That should be obvious. Our initial team setup will be vital.

[Battle start!]

[First turn quotes]
Al Saiduq: Benetnasch, man has the wisdom to overcome you. I hope you are prepared.
Daichi: A-All right...! We can win this if our demons don't get sent back... I hope.
Fumi: The seventh Septentrione... Monsters of the Big Dipper. I hope this is the last one.
{}{}

[After defeating the first two Alkaid Buds.]

Benetnasch: [GIBBERISH.]

[More buds show up.]

Daichi: Ack...! Look what just showed up! Crap, crap, crap! Everyone, protect Trumpeter!

Benetnasch changed its form...!

[After doing a significant amount of damage to Benetnash, it splits into quarters.]

Fumi: Oh... Crap. Looks like it split up.
Fumi: Is that Megrez? And an Alioth? I see more of the Septentriones, too... Ugh.

[If you don't have Fumi.]
Al Saiduq: ...Benetnasch has split. I see...Megrez, Alioth, and other Septentriones as well.

[Benetnasch poisons the battlefield]

Al Saiduq: I see. This is the Alioth toxin. It seems that it is finally becoming serious.

[Misc unsorted]
Al Saiduq: (attacking Benetnasch) Let us go. I want to see the potential of humanity.
Al Saiduq: We cannot proceed unless all of them are defeated. Let us carry on in our task!

[Post-battle!]

Daichi: D-Did we win...? We did! We beat it, Hiro!

> Yeah.
> We did it.

Hinako: Ugh, that was a bitch. That splitting apart thing wasn't fair! Too many surprises...

Al Saiduq: But you have all done well in defeating Benetnasch. That was the seventh...

> Was it the last one?
> Are there more?

Io: I'm not sure... if they're based on the Big Dipper, that should've been the last one. But that was only a theory of ours, so I'm still worried...

[If Io's not in your party.]
Daichi: No idea... I sure hop there aren't any more.

Al Saiduq: Don't worry. You have nothing to fear. Trust me.

> All right.

Al Saiduq: Thank you. I will lead you to Polaris, come what may.

> It's still a secret?

Al Saiduq: Again, don't worry. I will lead you to Polaris, come what may.

Fumi: Er, wait a second. Polaris aside, there are a few things we have to take care of.

Makoto: Chief Hotsuin... he was absent from the Osaka office. What could he be doing now...?

Airi: Don't forget Ronaldo and Joe! Maybe we beat the Septentrione... but I don't think a guy like Ronaldo will stay quiet.

[If Airi isn't in your party.]
Daichi: Oh, and there's Ronaldo and Joe left too! We beat all the Septentriones...
Daichi: But someone like Ronaldo probably won't keep a low profile.

Al Saiduq: I agree. But neither faction has made a move. There's no knowing what they've planned.
Al Saiduq: What we can do now to prepare for the end is to stay alert for both factions...
Al Saiduq: And make sure each of us are ready when the time comes.

Otome: Preparing... that's not a bad idea. It's important to be ready so we don't have any regrets, no matter what happens.

[If Otome isn't in your party.]
Hinako: Hmm... Yeah, we probably should be prepared.
Hinako: We gotta make sure that no matter what happens, we'll have no regrets.

Jungo: Mm. Okay. Just a little more fighting 'til it's all done. Good luck, guys.

You say your farewells to everyone before leaving...
