[FONTAINE ARCHON QUEST SPOILERS]
[Part 1] [Part 2] [<] [NEXT Quest>>]
We went back to the infirmary.
Lyney wanted to show us his speculations.
Firstly, Fremie were affected by the Primordial Seawater because the Water is near the Fortress. That's actually true.
Secondly, Wrio didn't interfere because he hoped Fatui will find Childe for him. That's also true.
Thirdly, Wrio has his own secret he's working on. THAT'S ALSO TRUE.
Basically, Lyney guessed everything right.
Lyney is speculating that Wrio's plan is related to changing the nature of seawater, and Clorinde is helping him out.
Lyney knew we had the last piece to his puzzle, so we shared what we know. Lyney told us he can see us as family now.
Lynette stated that when we are in danger, they will protect us. I bet that's going to be used soon or in the last Act.
After the conversation, we went to the cafeteria, where we met Sige preparing a meal for Clorinde.
When we talked with Sige, she explained she was taking good care of Fremie when she knew something is wrong with the water and that information with the sealed pipe was to protect Lyney from going after him.
Sige was sad that Neuvi visits the Fortress so rarely, she thinks he would like the darkness and chaos in here.
After the meal, we went to sleep. Paimon felt first, then Traveler.
We were woken up by yelling crowd about running away. Traveler suspect that it might be the leak of Primordial Seawater.
We went to Duke's Office, as the announcement about evacuation was heard across the prison.
We took the stairs down to the Forbidden Zone. And that soundtrack in the back gives such a good climate.
Down there, Wriothesley and Clorinde were waiting as a defense line. Soon the hatch broke and a massive leak of Primordial Seawater escaped. At first, Wrio managed to froze it, but that was not enough. The other wave of leak came and Wrio had to run away through the gates that were closed by Clorinde. Additionally, they froze them too and told Traveler to call the Neuvillette.
When we met Neuvi, he told us to go to the Opera House, protect Furina from the Knave.
When we arrived, there were Fatui and Palace Mermonia guards outside. Melusine Receptionist instructed us to protect Furina.
Furina seeing us brightened up, Arlecchino introduced herself as one of the Fatui Harbingers. Traveler was very suspicious about her. After quite a discussion about Childe's whereabouts, the water in the cup started shaking, and Arlecchino asked if they entered the next stage of the prophecy.
Action is moved to the Fortress again, Neuvi arrived at the Fortress and when the Primordial Seawater leaked again, he used his power to move it back to where it belongs and sealed it. After that, he had a short conversation with Clorinde and Wrio, then came back to the Opera.
Action moved again to the Opera, where the conversation between Arlecchino and Furina continues.
Arlecchino asked if she knew what phenomenon they just witness, and she has her suspicions that Furina don't actually know.
The Knave is talking to her as a Fountainian and asks her if that's acceptable, that she as the Hydro Archon haven't done anything regarding the prophecy. She's just relaxing all the time. The words used by Arlecchino almost made me cry. I'm sad for Furina. She must have done it in a good faith, yet the Knave accuse her of not taking any action at all... ;-;
I'm gonna cry, please give me a moment.
*Moment later*
Alright, let's go back to the quest. Furina refuted her accusation. GO ON FURINA! YOU WILL MAKE IT! I BELIEVE IN YOU! ;-;
But Arlecchino does not give up and tries to make her spill the beans about her plans to save Fontaine.
Arlecchino asked her if she knows the purpose of the Oratrice and what will she do with the power of Indemnitium accumulated over those years. She also told her that someone is using Indemnitium to prepare for something. She also stated that Lyney contaminated with a lot of it. Later we talk about some insignificant topics until we call it a day. Arlecchino just suggested talking about Childe in private.
We followed her, and she told us that Childe was just the excuse, and she had no interest in his whereabouts. She just wanted to thank us for helping Lyney and Lynette. She also asked us about our impression of Furina.
She told us her impression. She started from the time when she was informed that Childe was pleaded guilty. She informed the Agent she's going to meet someone soon. She was walking around Fontaine in her cover and spy on Furina, who is for her more like the celebrity than Archon. She just wanted to locate the Gnosis. She attacked Furina, but she felt she's just a bait. She didn't have a Gnosis with her, and she didn't even felt like a god at all, she also senses some kind of curse. That was the scene when Furina begged for her life when The Knave almost assassinated her. Since no one saw it, even Furina haven't mentioned it to anyone. Then Arlecchino started to suspect that Neuvillette is the one that possess the Gnosis. Then she listened the report of Lyney, Lynette and Freminet related to Childe's disappearance and use it as diplomatic pressure.
Arlecchino states that she is capable of recognizing the Archon and neither Furina nor Neuvillette feels like them. So who's the Archon then?
Arlecchino offered her cooperation with us. Then Neuvillette came. We tried to ask him if he's the Archon, but he didn't answer. Suddenly it started raining. Traveler stated that Neuvillette may be the Hydro Dragon and... he confirmed it!
In the meantime, he focused too much on Furina.
He also explained that he can't alone deal with the prophecy since from the very beginning, a fraction of his power was ceased and stolen and is now the base of Archon's power.
This is where I cried ;-; How could she treat Furina that way ;-;
