'''Oracle of Light:''' Indeed you could. Their radiance would be unmistakable. But know, my child, that the power you seek will come at a price. We stand now at the crossroads. A decision must be made. 'Tis only natural to be afraid. To hesitate. But for your many trials, you have grown stronger and wiser.

'''Minfilia:''' A parting gift, I think. Until now, I've walked the path she set before me. The path she set before all the Minfilias. But she's given me a new path─a new life─that I can call my own. And even though she's gone, I can still feel her...warm and calm and gentle. I can feel the beating heart of the world, the Light that swells within it. And the Lightwardens. There's one here in Amh Araeng. Let's hurry back. The others need to know. You don't think Thancred will be angry with me, do you? | |||

Dialogue
Quest Acceptance
Minfilia: I can sense her presence, albeit faintly. Come on, let's look over by the crystal wall.
Survey the designated location
Minfilia: Is this─ Terrified Man: Run for your lives! It's the Flood! The Flood!
Citizen: (SCREAMING) Citizen: The end is nigh! Bewildered Man: Look! Th-There's somebody up there! On top of the palace! Oracle of Light (EFFORT GRUNT) (Ardbert approaches)
Oracle of Light: No. Stand back. We shall stay the Flood. Ardbert: But this is what I want! It's my sacrifice to make!
Oracle of Light: Your time has not yet come. When all hangs in the balance, you must give them hope. Ardbert:Minfilia!
Minfilia: This place... You... You're... Oracle of Light: Ours is a meeting long overdue. Full glad am I that we may finally speak. What will you say? It's good to see you again. / I've come at Thancred's behest. / ... -> I've come at Thancred's behest. (The Oracle of Light smiles, and nods) Oracle of Light: My dear, sweet child... Yours is a burden none should ever be forced to bear. Such pain and suffering you have endured, yet still you came. For this and more, I thank you. (Minfilia shakes her head) Minfilia: I've lost count of the times I've almost given up. If people hadn't helped me every step of the way, I never would have made it.

You are a hero to us both. But not even the most valiant heroes can stand alone. Only together may you change the fate of two worlds.
Search for Minfilia
Minfilia: <groan> What happened? I remember speaking with Minfilia...and then... Minfilia: Is something wrong? What will you say? Your hair, it's changed. / Your eyes, they've changed. -> Your eyes, they've changed. Minfilia: A parting gift, I think. Until now, I've walked the path she set before me.

Thancred: Ah, there you are. We were worried. Alisaie: Really? [She/He] wasn't the one that nearly got [herself/himself] killed. It's a good thing Urianger called on us when he did. You were at death's door when we found you. Thancred:But thanks to your timely ministrations, I was not obliged to walk through it. (Y'shtola crosses her arms, scene cuts over to Minfilia.

Thancred: That settles it, then. Welcome aboard, Ryne! Ryne: I won't let you down.
Idle Dialogue
Alisaie Forename! Thank the gods you're all right. Urianger Thou art returned. But where is Minfilia? Y'shtola Welcome back. I see you fared better than Thancred. Alphinaud You're back! We were beginning to worry about you.
