Line 1: Line 1:
This is the script for ''[[Dawn of Mana]]''. It contains all lines spoken by characters, with some exceptions such as grunts in battle, stock phrases while picking up an item or using magic. Some of the lines are not written and/or repeated, especially during battle. They may be some discrepancies between what is heard compared to what's written here.
==Legend==
* Parentheses () indicate an action being held. It is significant enough that it could change a character line's meaning if it were not mentioned.
* Brackets [] indicate a change of scene. There is no gameplay during these. There are three types of brackets:
** [CUTSCENE STARTS][CUTSCENE ENDS]: means there's a regular cutscene.
** [CGI CUTSCENE STARTS][CGI CUTSCENE ENDS]: means there's a cutscene with movie-like graphics. Only used for key plot points & dramatic moments in the story.
** [INTERLUDE STARTS][INTERLUDE ENDS]: means there's a picture book-like story-telling cutscene. These are narrated by the Mana spirits and are usually found between chapters.
* Text found between wavy lines ~~ are not depicted as text, but are heard during gameplay. All interlude scenes and CGI cutscenes do not display text.

(Watts' machine seems to be struggling with the monster at first, but eventually lift it up.)
Watts: Rrrraaah! This one's for ye!
(Watts' machine tosses the bird into a group of golems.)
Watts: Put that in yer pipe and smoke it! This one is called "Mark II" for a reason, mind ye! You'll find this one's go a wee more oomph than the last model!

Watts: Oh, Faye! So yer all right, are ye? Good job!

Watts: Their headquarters has got to be atop the Tree.
Keldric: I know! We'll be able to fight our way in through the caves below!

Watts: (After Keldric destroys a Thanatos Ammo.) We've got a long way to go!
Wendellan Soldier: We're being bombarded!
Watts: Come on, lads! Now I can't do it all for ye!
(Later, Keldric falls from a flimsy bridge.)
Faye: It doesn't look very––
Keldric: Woah!
Faye: Let's go up, Keldy. Watts is waiting for us.
(Once back up and freeing Watts from the enemy force.)
Faye: Watts! You're on a roll now!

Watts: Ah! The bloody bridge is out! Keldric! Climb aboard, and we'll get ye o'er right away!
Watts: (If Keldric falls off his machine after lending his help to cross the gap.) Quick, or I'll leave ye behind!

Watt: We need to lend Keldric a hand!
Watts: There's a better world waitin' for us!
Watts: Hey! Listen up, lads! You've got to show some spunk!
Watts: Keldric's fightin' like there's no tomorrow!
Watts: Give it one good push!
Grim Golem Raider: Capture that kid!
(After destroying the last barricade, in an open field full of golems.)
Watts: I'll get the wall! Keldric, you lend us a hand, eh!? I'm coming through!
Grim Golem Raider: Aim for their weapons!

Watts: Keldric! Leave the rest to me, lad. Get, movin'!

(Keldric is seen riding Flammie, who is dodging enemy projectiles.)
~Keldric: Flammie! Drop us off at the top of the Tree!~
(Flammie destroys some enemies in his way, then flies toward the Tree.)

===Final Chapter: The Great Tree===
(Keldric stands before the ominous castle.)
Keldric: We'll finish this here!
(Keldric unlocks the main gate, leading to a magic portal.)
Keldric: Woah!
Faye: Keldy!
(The party is found in some weird dimension.)
Keldric: How'd I get sucked in here?
Faye: Let's find the exit.
(After defeating the enemies, a path opens, leading to a long, castle-like corridor.)
Keldric: All right! We're out!
Faye: We need to be careful. There might be more rough spots ahead of us yet.
(After the corridor, in a grand hall.)
Faye: What's that candlestick doing here?
(Later, in a room full of mushrooms.)
Faye: Some wind should get these spinning...
(Much later, in a deep cave-like structure with blue walls.)
Faye: Keldy... I feel hatred coming from beyond that door. It's overwhelming...
Grim Golem Raider: Kudos on reaching that milestone... But you're not gettign through this gate!
Grim Golem Centurion: Come! You're invited to a feast of spilt blood and rent flesh!
(Keldric defeats the Grim Golem Centurion and reach for the gate.)
[CUTSCENE STARTS]
(Keldric waits after the gate to slowly open. In the throne room stands Grim Stroud.)
Stroud: So you survived eighteen years just to come back and annoy me. Well done, dear Brother.
Keldric: Where is Ritzia?
(Stroud makes a head gesture to his right, when Anise stands. Keldric runs toward her.)
Grim Stroud: Is she more important than your own flesh and blood? Why did I ever throw you into the sea in the first place? Now I wish I had just disposed of you properly when you were still a baby. No matter. I believe we can settle our differences amicably. But first, allow me to cast off some dead weight...
(Grim Stroud impales Anise from behind. Keldric catches her.)
Keldric: Ritzia!?
Anise: Kel...
(Anise starts leaking purple smoke.)
Keldric: Ritzia! Don't die on me! Ritzia...
Grim Stroud: As for your plan for my brother to kill me, taking my place as Mavolia's king... Did you think I was unaware of your little scheme, Ritzia? And did you assume I wouldn't know about the Echoes being released? I am the eternal king! Wherever I go, that is my kingdom! And all I subjugate  shall be my servants! I claim dominion over all! From the heights of paradise to the depths of hell.
Keldric: Mark my words. The only place...
(Keldric draws it sword.)
Keldric: you're going is... Down!
Grim Stroud: Hm. Bravo. I'm glad to play along, Little Brother. It'll be a delightful way to pass the time!
[CUTSCENE ENDS]
Grim Stroud: You dare to resist me? Haha! You might as well try to stay the sun in its course!
Grim Stroud: (Striking when he's guarding.) Wohoho! That's the best you can do!?
Keldric: Darn it! I've got to get him when his guard's down.
Grim Stroud: Come, kneel before my sword and be done.
~Stroud: (Making a sword swipe.) Smash it!~
~Stroud: (Getting stunned.) Cheap shot.~
(Keldric defeats Grim Stroud.)
[CUTSCENE STARTS]
(Grim Stroud is wincing in pain while his body is crackling with electricity.)
Grim Stroud: Hehehe. Ah, evil spirit Thanatos, servant of the Echoes. If you wish to destroy the will of the Tree, follow me! For this is your true path to freedom!
(Grim Stroud absorbs a considerable amount of Thanatos. He transforms into a huge insectoid version of his former self.)
[CUTSCENE ENDS]
Keldric: Thanatos have possessed you...
Grim Stroud: No, I have absorbed them! This is my power as king! Now that the maiden is dead, you can't get what you want, even if you kill me.
Keldric: I'm going to make the word the way it once was...the way Ritzia wanted it to be!
Grim Stroud: Hmph! You're hopeless!
Faye: (Near a Night Tower.) Power is flowing out from here and into him!
Grim Stroud: (After being stunned from destroying a Night Tower.) Why, you little––I'm going to wipe that grin off your face!
Grim Stroud: Be a good boy and give up.
Grim Stroud: (After depleting his first health bar.) I'll give you a taste of death!
Grim Stroud: Good riddance!
Grim Stroud: Defy meand you'll reap your reward!
Grim Stroud: (After depleting half of his last health bar.) Accept your fate like a man!
Grim Stroud: Haven't you learned? Resistance is futile!
Faye: (When walking on higher platforms.) This doesn't seem too stable. You'd better be careful.
~Grim Stroud: (Summoning a black vortex.) Beg for your life!~
~Grim Stroud: (Slamming the ground.) Kneel before Stroud!~
(Keldric defeats Grim Stroud's second form.)
[CUTSCENE STARTS]
(Grim Stroud' body is leaking black smoke and lightning.)
Grim Stroud: How did I lose...to a brat like you? I am the true ruler of Mavolia!
(Grim Stroud's body is emptied of energy, reverting him back to his previous form. He collapses on the floor next to his sword. Despite his pain, he is still laughing.)
Keldric: What's so funny?
Grim Stroud: You didn't really want to save the world... Just the girl. And I've already killed her. So what will you do next? Keep runnign in circles, slashing at everything that gets in your way? Not bad, actually... Befits a brother of mine.
(Grim Stroud tries to get up and grabs his sword.)
Grim Stroud: Build a new world of darkness with your sword, freshly anointed in blood!
(Grim Stroud laughs maniacally while he vanishes in smoke.)
Faye: Keldy.
(Anise shows up from the ground below.)
Anise: That man's sword could never kill me. And even that shiny blade of yours cannot destroy me.
Keldric: Ritzia!
(Anise hovers before Keldric.)
Anise: Ritzia? She no longer exists. And tonight...the real destruction begins. Once we obtain all the power of the Great Tree and the spirits, the Echoes will finally be freed from the Tree and venture into the world above.
(Anise disappears in a powerful wave of energy. Keldric and Faye press forward.)
[CUTSCENE ENDS]
(Much later, in a long, winding hallway with blue walls after falling from higher ground.)
Village Elder (Voice): Keldric. Eighteen years ago, the Great Tree called you to this land. You are a knight, chosen by the Tree itself. Don't stop believing in yourself...or your ideals.
Treant (Voice): If you grow weary now, all you have done up to this point will have been in vain. The world is coming to and end...
Gaia (Voice): Are you full prepared to let it end like this? Or do you have the courage to accept the truth and go forward?
Lekius (Voice): I know you can do it, Keldy. You wouldn't abandon Ritzia. Shen entrusted you with...her wish...her final wish...
(A rabite is surrounded by Golem soldiers.)
Faye: Oh, look! They're teasing that poor rabite!
Keldric: That's Ritzia's pet! We've gotta save him!
(After saving the creature, Keldric continues to press forward, falling in deep holes twice before reaching a circular room.)
[CUTSCENE]
(Buju in grimslie form is standing still before Keldric, who decides to pick him.)
Keldric: He's all right. Just a little scratched.
Faye: Thank goodess.
Anise: You will soon prostrate yourself at my feet, just like your friend did!
(Anise appears.)
Keldric: The world is already like Mavolia... What more could you possibly do to it?
Anise: The Echoes are not yet completely free. They need the seed from your right hand and the aid of that spirit child. Even now, the Great Tree struggles to thwart the release of the Echoes. However, I should be able to persuade it, once I have the seed the Tree spawned...and the Thanatos take you.
Keldric: Then what Ritzia said to us in the forest that day was––
Anise: Yes. I forced the maiden to say all that for me. But I believe the girl was thinking about something else at the time. She realized the only way to revive the Great Tree, which had been accumulating Echoes for so many years, was to open the door once again. And in opening the door, she learned one more thing: To revive the Great Tree, the keeper of the seed must become one with the liberator of the Echoes by piercing her through with his sword. That's why Ritzia is actually looking forward to being slain by you!
Keldric: No...no way...
Anise: And now it's up to you, O keeper of the seed. Will you help me release the Echoes, or will you destroy them...and Ritzia?
(Keldric draws his blade.)
Anise: Ah, made up your mind already? Well then, I'll drink a toast to the Echoes with a chalice of your blood!
(Anise creates a blinding light.)
[CUTSCENE ENDS]
(Keldric & Faye wind up in an illusory Sunbeam Forest. Anise is waiting ahead for them.)
Faye: Keldy? Where...are we?
Keldric: This is...were Ritzia and I...
Medusa: Look, Keldy. It's our favorite meeting place... And the place where you shall die an agonizing death!
(Medusa is playing a goose chase with Keldric.)
Faye: Ritzia! Wait!
~Medusa: Come forth...~
Medusa: I suggest you take a nice, long nap here.
~Medusa: Time to come and play!~
Medusa: You've killed your best friend and your own brother.
Faye: You're Ritzia, right!?
~Medusa: My little ones...~
(Screen turns white.)
Medusa: I've prepared a place for you to die... However, if you'd rather prolong your agony, I'd be happy to oblige.
(Keldric & Faye are back in the circular room. Anise transforms into Medusa.)
Medusa: Begone!
[CUTSCENE ENDS]
Faye: Wow, she looks horrible.
Medusa: Now, Keldric! From your very corpse, I will claim that seed!
Medusa: I've had about enough of you. You remind me of the masked one. How he once was. Knowing that you killed my beloved makes killing you all the more satifying.
Faye: She's showing off her power again!
Medusa: Enjoy you lingering death.
Medusa: Feel the full force of my power!
Medusa: Enough of your righteous indignation!
Medusa: (After depleting her first health bar.) Spirit girl, you will obey me!
Faye: No way! I'm on Keldy's side, lady!
Medusa: (Summoning a magic seal.) This'll burn away any resolve you've got left!
Faye: What you did to Ritzia's unforgivable!
Keldric: (When Medusa' last health bar is close to zero.) One more hit and you're through!
~Medusa: You, pest!~
~Medusa: (One/two snakes attacking.) Catch!~
~Medusa: Dip around, Keldric!~
~Medusa: (After recovering her snakes.) You'll never...~

Keldric: It's no use. I tried, but I couldn't do it.
(Keldy cries.)
Faye: Keldy...
(Anise's body glow purple as black smoke gathers around her.)
Faye: Keldy, let's go.
Keldric: Yeah. But... Faye...
Faye: Ritzia wouldn't want a world envelopped in darkness. She wants...for you to make the world beautiful like it was before.
Keldric: But how to I––
Faye: Follow the voice of your heart, Keldy. It'll be all right. You're not alone after all. Ritzia and I are always with you. We wouldn't let you carry his burden all by yourself.
Keldric: Faye.
(Anise opens her eyes and look a Keldric & Faye. Keldric's body glows and he draws his sword. Faye gives the blade a boost. Anise relatiates by casting a black orb of magic.)
Keldric: Ritzia, you know I'm sorry. I wish I could save you. But I have... NO CHOICE!
(Keldric lunges toward Anise, who fires her magic to him. Keldric is revealed to have leaped into the air and stabs her with his sword.)
Keldric: Ritzia.
(A vision of Anise is depicting her layed on a large flower.)
Masked Guru (Voice): Anise. Anise... Come. Time to go home, Anise.
Anise: Granz.
(Anise raises her right arm and is lift up. Ritzia takes her place, with Faye reaching to her forehead.)
Ritzia: Aah... Where am––– Faye.
(Buju in his normal form hops toward her.)
Ritzia: Buju.
(Keldric is seen slowly descending from the sky.)
Keldric: Ritiza.
Ritzia: Keldy.
(Both extend their arms and, as their hands meet, they shine brightly. Keldric gives his seed to her, releasing his right arm of vines.)
Ritzia: Keldy, thank you.
Faye: All right, Ritzia. Time for us to go.
Keldric: Ritzia?
(Keldric's body starts going away from Ritzia.)
Faye: A maiden of the Tree, the seed, plus as spirit...all become one, and then begins the birth of a new world... That's why...
Keldric: Oh, no. Don't do it! Faye! Ritzia!
(Ritzia & Faye descend into the void. A white flower pops into Keldric's right hand.)
Keldric: Faye!
(Ritzia starts shining brightly.)
[CUTSCENE ENDS]<br>
[CGI CUTSCENES STARTS]
(The ruins below the Great Tree are crumbling, so as the Door to Mavolia. Stroud's castle is vaporized into the light. Coutless spirits are seen coming from he Great Tree, as the Goddess of Mana appears on top of it. The Goddess sends a myriad of mana spirits into the land. She then summons the Mana Sword in her hands, disappearing in the process. The holy blade drops down from the sky, planting itself in a root at the base of the Great Tree. A single rabite is seen glancing at the sword from a distance.)

===Ending Scene===
(The eight Mana Spirits are gathered around a lake.)
Gnome: This is the bond between humans and spirits in this world. The origin of the Mana Tree.
Undine: Time does fly by. Why it's been...thousands of years since all that happened. The sword's lost. And the Mana Tree, too.
Dryad: And now...around the power of Mana, a frightening and sinister shadow is on the move.
Shade: What are we to do?
Salamander: We've got to do something! We can't just walk away here.
Jinn: We have to help the Mana warrior and the Great Tree maiden!
Gnome: Hmmm... Well, then. Any objections?
(All spirits agree.)
Luna: People and spirits...
All: shall strive together for the sake of the world!
Gnome: Good! Then shall we get going? Everyone's waiting.
(Camera focus on the moon. Keldric is seen returning to his village all restored thanks to the Mana Goddess. Past memories of his adventure are revisited. Keldric is seen gazing at the revitalized Great Tree. Next, a scene of the carved tree in Sunbeam Forest is played.)

Where there is Mana, there is love. Where there is love, there is Mana.
