Laeya rediscovers her courage after successfully switching off the facility.

No wonder! You handled the incident with such decisiveness! You're really amazing.

The Endministrator actually does visit the frontlines...

I'm alright... I was just a little scared because ... because I saw ... that ... that thing.

Everyone was working, then the sirens started shrieking. The broadcast told us to evacuate, but nobody moved. We had to shut down the facilities, or things could get worse. And then ... the Ankhor fell from the skies.

I remember seeing the ground rippling, buckling, and breaking apart like a piece of paper... The shockwave sent me flying and knocked me out. Everything had changed when I opened my eyes again.

Someone tried to protect me and got badly hurt. I was so afraid those Aggeloi might jump out at anytime.

It's not your fault, Laeya. When I saw the Ankhor for the first time, I was also pretty shaken up by the destruction it caused.

Talos-II is a dangerous planet. We have to face Ankhors, Aggeloi, the Blight, and all sorts of threats that we barely understand.

By supporting each other, we shall prevail over the tribulations. And behold ... we now have the Endministrator's personal assistance.

You did well, Laeya. We couldn't have successfully shut down the refining unit without you.

Anyways, thank you, Endmin. The real you turns out to be really ... different from what I had in mind.

It was a pleasure working with you! Your assistance has granted me courage.

But as dangers grow, it becomes even more important that we remember our duty. No matter how small a job may be, we must do everything we can to get it done.

This isn't the time to get emotional. There are still a lot of places that need to be rebuilt.

Then let's keep going. I think I can start assigning jobs directly to you.

Yeah!

...Just doing my job.
