Kerutoto: You adventurer folk can'taru seem to sit still. Can you imagine what it's like trying to find you? ...The nerve of people nowadays... Kerutoto: Well, I haven't exactly been out searching for you...not in the strict technical sense of the word...but you've had me so worked-perked up, I haven't been able to properly meditate! Kerutoto: You've heard of the prime avatar that inhabits the realm of dreams, right? Wipe that innocent look off your face! I know you know better! Kerutoto: I have received a summons for you from that prime avatar. Yes, you! And also for your buddy-wuddies. Kerutoto: These past few days have been a nightarumare. Literally! The prime avatar snatchy-watched me up in my dreams, and I thought I was a goner. Scenes of Windurst flashed before my eyes! Kerutoto: But all he said was, "Come to Pso'Xja," and ordered me to relay the message to you and your palsy-walsies. Do you see what I went through all because of you!? Kerutoto: But an-y-way! Kerutoto: I've told you, and done my job! So get your tailsy-wailsy down to Pso'Xja like Mr. Prime Avatar said! Kerutoto: I'll never be able to meditate properly again if you don't! So off with you now! Shoo! |- BGCOLOR="#FFA500" !Waking Dreams (pt.1) - The Shrouded Maw |- BGCOLOR="#FFEC8B" |Diabolos: When last we fought, I could feel the light of the crystal. Diabolos: The force was tremendously powerful--strong enough to shatter my realm of dreams. Tell me. Who was that light coming from? Diabolos: I called all of you back into my realm to learn which of you possesses such power. Diabolos: You are the first to arrive. Now I will test your power. Diabolos: Prepare yourself! This dream is no dream, but a fleeting illusion before eternal slumber! |- BGCOLOR="#FFA500" !Waking Dreams (pt.2) - The Shrouded Maw |- BGCOLOR="#FFEC8B" |Diabolos: So...you are the one who possesses the light of the crystal. Diabolos: The people of Vana'diel need you in order to be saved. I will lend you my power. |- BGCOLOR="#FFA500" !Waking Dreams (pt.3) - The Shrouded Maw |- BGCOLOR="#FFEC8B" |Diabolos: So you have come, Player name. You wish to challenge me again? Diabolos: You shall have your rematch. Bask in the power of the unattainable dream! |- BGCOLOR="#FFA500" !Waking Dreams (pt.4) - The Shrouded Maw |- BGCOLOR="#FFEC8B" |Diabolos: So you have come, confronter of the Emptiness and liberator of Vana'diel. Diabolos: When last we fought, I could feel the light of the crystal. Diabolos: You possess a power great enough to dissipate dreams. Diabolos: I shall submit myself to your will. You may use my form in the waking world as you desire. Diabolos: However, you must first prove yourself strong enough to undertake such a feat. Diabolos: You shall witness the full extent of my power. This dream is no dream... Diabolos: Underestimate your enemy, and this battle shall be as a fleeting illusion before eternal slumber! |- BGCOLOR="#FFA500" !Waking Dreams (pt.5) - The Shrouded Maw |- BGCOLOR="#FFEC8B" |Diabolos: Your power is impressive. I admit defeat. I believe you can save the people of Vana'diel. Use my powers wisely. |- BGCOLOR="#FFA500" !Waking Dreams (pt.6) - The Shrouded Maw |- BGCOLOR="#FFEC8B" |Diabolos: So you have come, Player name! How dare you thrust humanity into the depths of despair! Diabolos: Why were you not destroyed in the presence of the mothercrystal? Diabolos: Traitor! Plummet into the abyss of endless nightmares! |- BGCOLOR="#FFA500" !Waking Dreams (pt.7) - The Shrouded Maw |- BGCOLOR="#FFEC8B" |Diabolos: So, this dream is yet again near its end... I despise the light in you, Player name. Diabolos: What is it? What are you planning? Diabolos: You wish to use that light to defeat Promathia? Diabolos: You are a fool. But with your strength, you may be able to accomplish your task. Diabolos: I cannot tell if you will succeed. I can perceive all with the power of dreams, but only after the events have been played out. Diabolos: I shall entrust you with my power. Diabolos: How you decide to use it will show me your fate. |- BGCOLOR="#FFA500" !Waking Dreams (pt.8) - The Shrouded Maw |- BGCOLOR="#FFEC8B" |Diabolos: I know all you have achieved from your dreams. Diabolos: The Emptiness continues to disappear from the world, and souls entering my world of Dynamis have become scarce. Diabolos: You have saved Vana'diel without losing your own soul. You must be proud, Player name. Diabolos: From now on, I will concentrate my energies into restoring the cursed world of Dynamis to its original form in the realm of dreams. Diabolos: But I cannot accomplish such a task without great power--power I will receive by drawing you into my realm. Diabolos: Oh, but you are already a captive in my everlasting dream! |- BGCOLOR="#FFA500" !Waking Dreams (pt.9) - The Shrouded Maw |- BGCOLOR="#FFEC8B" |Diabolos: How could you possess such resolve even after losing the light of the crystals...? Diabolos: A teardrop? So that's it... You heal your agony and sorrow through tears... Diabolos: I understand now. I understand, because I was once like you. Diabolos: Because reality is filled with sorrow and pain, mankind can also come to know bliss, joy on a scale far surpassing any placid dream. Diabolos: Still, I became a terrestrial avatar in order to assist mankind, and I fully intend to continue my work. Diabolos: And so I shall bestow upon you that which you so desire--a real dream. |}
