Rialynn listened intently, nodding along as he fed her all of this useful information. Maybe after she finished her performer and dancer jobs, she should look into equipping herself as a Black Mage next.

But she still had a few questions.

"Then this Ultima Weapon is...'mechanical'?" Because mechanics didn't really exist where she came from, nothing truly advanced in any case. "I was also told that Palitutu used to be the boss in the lab, so the Boss Fight melody might be useful too."

Ramza shrugs. "In part. It is pieced together from some natural and some mechanical pieces, to make a hybrid like no other creature."

But in his experiences, parts made of flesh will be easier to defeat than the metal parts, so magic, he thinks, will be a boon in the upcoming battle.

"From what I have heard of that song, it will be most helpful."

[rialynn]

That did it, then. Vincent said it would be useful, and Ramza confirmed it. Boss Fight song it was. She closed her eyes for a moment, silently humming the tune in her head, her left hand twitching to indicate which fingers pressed down on which strings to alter the tune. If all else failed, she could sing, but she wasn't sure her voice was loud enough to be heard over the din.

"So you've actually seen this thing before," she said, furrowing her brow. "How tough is this fight going to be, any idea?"

[zodiac_brave]

Ramza shook his head. "I have seen it deactivated. There were exhibits on it, when we went back to Aqures Tosf. It was made to fight the Calamity itself, so it must be powerful."

He sighed. "Palitutu would not come if she did not trust it would be able to protect her. This battle will not be an easy one."

[rialynn]

"I was afraid of that..." Rialynn sighed, slumping forward. But a few moments later, a thought occurred to her. He'd said it was made to fight the Calamity itself...? Rialynn straightened, blinking, then her brow wrinkled as she turned to look at him again.

"Then if we can beat the Ultima Weapon, there's a good chance we can beat the Calamity too," she reasoned. "Do you think that's what she's doing? Testing us to see if we're strong enough? Because if we aren't, maybe that means they'll have to reset everything again with the Time Loop."

[zodiac_brave]

"'Tis possible. Though, I do not know if that will be the case. The Weapon was designed for that purpose, but it never succeeded. The Calamity was stronger than the Weapon."

It was true that if the Heroes could not defeat the Weapon, it would be doubtful they could stand a chance against the Calamity. So that was a possible motive, at least.

[rialynn]

"Hmmm..." That was information she hadn't come across before. "How long ago did they test that?" It couldn't have been during another loop. How would they have recorded the results if that was the case? "Well, I guess if we win this fight, it's a good sign that we've been improving. You've got your sword, I've got my songs..."

And everyone else was a battle monster, she assumed. "We'll be okay." She flashed him a quick but confident smile.

[zodiac_brave]

"I do not know if they ever tested it... the information from that previous era is limited."

So perhaps they did have a chance?

"Yes, if we Heroes all stand together, we will find a way to prevail. I know it will be so."
