How did it go? No need to beat yourself up...
You can call me the Endministrator.
You're just lopsided in your skills.
Waitwaitwait... You— The pell actually rose?!
People call me Endmin...
Shouldn't theory and practice go hand in hand?!
May I ask for your esteemed name, honored one?
Endministrator?! So the stories are true… Guess making the impossible look easy is part of the job description. I can't believe I was so rude to you!
Truth be told, after joining HS.Swords as an apprentice, I spent years buried in research. Top of my class in theory, flawless manuscript recitation…
Turns out being book-smart doesn't stop you from face-planting in actual trials. Who knew?
Ugh, get with the times! HS.Swords' Tianshi have been using automated forges for years. Who even hammers swords by hand anymore?!
Look, fate obviously sent you to fix my life. So! Wanna transcend tradition with me?
Two more pells to go. We need to activate their pressure plates in the correct sequence, just like before. This … is the trial of "Ren", the tenacity that tempers a true blade.
Raise all three pells in harmony, and bam! The central pell of the Bureau ascends! That's my graduation ticket.
Endmin, my future's in your hands now!
