Event Quest:The Last Three Days With:Tangaroa

Location: Mysterious Island

Village

It was the last night
before parting from the island.

…[Player], my dear child. Have thou not gone to bed yet?

I am now back from an assembly with the tribesmen, I just got here.

…

[Player]. If thou do not mind… Would thou spend some time with Tangaroa?

With pleasure.	I wanted to talk with you, too.

---

Thank you, my child. … Now, let us have a drink. Please, sit down and wait.

This juice is made with the fruits that grow near the village. It is nice to talk like this…

Is that so? Do thou like it? I am very happy that thou are enjoying it. Hahahaha.

What did you discuss in the assembly?	You’ve seemed busy these past few days.

Well… Today, while Tangaroa was absent, we decided who will be the island’s protector while I am out.

Tomorrow, after I see you off, I will start getting ready to travel to the outside world.

… I am anxious. Traveling and discovering the outside world, that is something that no previous Tangaroa has experienced. But…

[Player], would thou like to take a walk? I want to tell you a story.

Yes, not as “Tangaroa”, but as a man born on this island.

Like the “me” as the chief, not the “me” as Tangaroa

As a man, “I” came from the outside like thou… No, I wish to talk with “you” alone.

Because everyone on this island loves “Tangaroa”, I have decided to leave the island temporarily.

“Every world is always exposed to danger”, dangers like Dagon, the world that I came from, I need to know its meaning.

However, although I am “Tangaroa”, the heart of a man also beats inside me.

… [Player]. Thou are a visitor from the outside world. I will be honest with thou.

When I saw you for the first time, Tangaroa swore to protect you, and saw you as a partner to look after.

But at the same time, “I” felt something hitting the inside of my chest, as if I were a small boy.

… I was raised on this island. It has been a long time since I passed the ceremony of adulthood.

I inherited “Tangaroa”’s soul and devoted myself to this island. I felt a deep love for everyone and everything on this island.

I needed to guide my people properly, in the end that is what was expected of me, as “Tangaroa”’s successor… That is all.

Yes, I had no reason to ever leave this island. Everything that was required of me was to stay here.

But then, thou appeared, [Player]. You were… The first person that made me feel this way.

Your foreign eyes, the foreign air around you, I was trembling, it made my heart shiver.

But I also saw a radiance shining inside of you, something that required of “me” to protect.

Your adventurous spirit woke up.	That was your nature of taking care of others.	If you mean love… I felt the same.
It seems so. There is this part of me, inside my heart, that began to wake up.	That is correct, even as a father or as another man, you may be in danger so I cannot take my eyes off you.	Is… that so? You also find me…?

---

… Me, as “Tangaroa”, I am in charge of everyone on this island. As the successor, I am not allowed to have a special partner.

However, tonight, I have a confession to make. I… want to see you as that special partner.

[Player], since the moment I met you I searched into myself, and I’ve decided to return to my original world.

I realized that I lost an important part of me. To live, to struggle, to grasp to the future.

My withering heart finally began to feel heat. … And your being set it ablaze.

… I heard it from Robinson. “Summoning” is a secret method to connect this world to others.

If that is true, when thou return to your world, I wonder if it would be possible to link both our worlds.

If that is the case, I want to see the outside world and be close to thou.

… I want to protect thou even outside of this island. Will you allow me that, [Player]?

I’ll count on you, father!	I wonder if you could be more than a father.
Oh, as a father and as your elder, I swear to protect thou from any calamity. Thou should rely on me. … I will continue supporting thou.	[Player]… Only the sound of the sea waves echoed between them. They interlocked their fingers. Tonight, will thou tell me about your story?... Please, I want to know more about the outside world. Until the next morning, I do not want thou to see me as “Tangaroa”, but as another man, that is not your father.
