You reach the Tianshi Pillar Array outside Wuling City.

Hello...?

Originium Arts really can do just about anything, huh...

......

Fine. I can pretend to be his sweet pillar.

Why the silent treatment? Are you mad that I wasn't here with you last night?

My sweet pillar, I've finally realized — what I feel for you ... is love!

Huh!

Was that a...

That's correct. Waregeists don't come out often, so it's normal you don't know much about them.

Lady Si? What brings you here?

One of my waregeists caused trouble, so I came to take a look. But ... this is a bit messier than I expected.

That little one only recently took form. I never thought he'd wander all the way to Wuling and ... fall for a Tianshi Pillar.

Endmin, you sound almost disappointed.

So if Lady Si takes him back, that should settle things, right?

Taking him back is easy. The tricky thing is, newly formed waregeists are naive and stubborn.

Even if I force him back, if he can't get over that pillar, he'll just sneak out again someday.

He caused a bit of trouble, but nothing serious. I can't just erase him or lock him up forever, can I?

But if we do nothing, there is no guarantee worse consequences won't follow...

What if ... we could make him give up on the Tianshi Pillar himself?

Are you suggesting that...?

That waregeist ... I mean that gentleman ... appears to be seeking a response from something man-made in the city, especially this Tianshi Pillar.

If we could make the Tianshi Pillar speak and talk him into leaving, he'd probably go back willingly.

Each Tianshi Pillar has a built-in broadcasting system. With Originium Arts, the Endmin should be able to tap into the network and pose as one.

Sounds like a plan. Alright, you're up.
