Paseo

Rolf returns to Paseo. He visits the Clone Lab, hoping to revive Nei, but it's no longer possible to do so.

Early Script

Just above Paseo is a
plateau; why not put her
to rest up there? Don't
be sad--Everyone must
die sometime; your
friend led a full life!

Defeated, Rolf and the others go to Central Tower for their next assignment.

Early Script

<C1>, once again there's
a serious problem. We
just
when we were
feeling relieved that
those monsters had been
taken of, this happened!
We could avoid the worst
case if the dams could
be opened,...But there's
no control. Someone
must go there and open
them.

So, Rolf volunteers to open the dams.

Early Script

Well,...but,...I'm sorry
to say this, but the
government of Palm has
announced your names as
the ones who made Mother
Brain go crazy. Right
now, the security system
is desparately trying to
catch you guys. It is
too dangerous to do
anything that stands
out.

But Rolf refuses to just hide out in Paseo.

Gaila

Upon opening the fourth dam, Rolf's crew is captured by the government and transported to the space satellite Gaila. Shortly after, Rolf hears a large explosion and discovers that the satellite's path has changed. He reaches the control panel...

Early Script
PSIITopBorder.png
Oh no! This satellits is
headed straight for
Palm! There's no time!
What should I do???

Everything goes black. Rolf has another dream about Alis fighting Dark Force before waking up on a strange ship.

Early Script
PSIITopBorder.png
Did I disturb you?
I'm Tyler,a space
pirate. I left Palm
long ago; life under the
Mother Brain was not to
my liking. You were
being help by Gaila,
right? It's good for
you that I happened to
be close by. you're
friends are also being
revived now; they
should awake any moment.
It was terrtble...this

Palm.

Palm has been destroyed! Tyler reveals that Rolf and the others have been charged with destroying the Mother Brain, but Tyler doesn't believe that they did.

Early Script
PSIITopBorder.png
Anyways, I'll take you
to Paseo. I've already
got your belongings
loaded.
Ah, I remember now! you
were heading for
Dezo. I have heard
that there is someone
there who can do things
the Mother Brain can't.
But he might be of a
criminal nature! you
never can tell! Well
until we meet again!

Paseo

Rolf, having a new mission, goes to the Central Tower to procure a spaceship for Dezo.

Early Script
PSIITopBorder.png
...I see. You must have
thought it out. Use the
spaceship on the roof-
top. But, remember that
you are still suspects.
The Palm incident has
made then desparate.
Make sure tou take care
of yourselves.

Esper Mansion

After exploring the snowy plains of Dezo, Rolf and the others eventually find themselves in a strange mansion inhabited by Espers.

In the basement of the Esper Mansion, the blue-haired Lutz (a.k.a. Noah in the English translation of PSI), the last Telemental in Algo, awakes from his cryogenic slumber.

Early Script
PSIITopBorder.png
What wake me was Alis's
scream. So you are the
last descendant of Alis
who fought so to protect
Algo. Beautiful Alis,
the symbol of Algo, was
fighting the dark force
in that dream. The dark
force was trying to
destroy Algo, but in
the end was itself
destroyed.
But that doesn't mean
that there is no longer
anyone trying to destroy
Algo. you,<C1>, must
arm yourself for battle.
One valuable item is the
aeroprism--it will let
you see that which can
not
be seen. Also arm
yourself with nei
weapons. Prepare
Yourself, and then I
will tell you about the
enemy's plans.

...so they went and did just that.

Early Script
PSIITopBorder.png
Good job! You are
truly a descendant of
Alis. I acknowledge you
are qualified to succeed
the power of light and
the memory of darkness.
One thousand years ago,
after the battles of
Alis, Algo obtained
peace for a short while.
People were satisfied
with what was given to
them by those whom they
love, and did not ask
for more. And it was
their pleasure to give
to whom they loved more
than they wanted.
However, when Mother
Brain arrived, Algo
changed. We got confused
because Mother Brain
created so many things,
we didn't really know
what we needed.
People started to fight
for what Mother Brain
created. They no longer
thought that kindly
about Alis. People even
thought that they could
not live without
Mother Brain.
I think that a devil's
trap behind Mother
Brain. This caused the
people's mind to weaken.
The trap also leads Algo
to destruction.
I don't know who made
the trap, or why. There
is a Neisword in the
box. When you pick it
up, I will send you
over to
the evil side.

After collecting the Neisword, Lutz offers to transport Rolf and friends to the final dungeon. If they refuse...

In the case, I'll send
you on your way with my
prayers.
PSIIBottomBorder.png

They don't do that, though. Lutz prepares to transport the party.

Use the Neisword if you
run out of power. It
bring you back here
right away! Now go to
those who watch us
from outside of Algo.

If Rolf and the others cowardly refuse...

Early Script
PSIITopBorder.png
The Mother Brain laughed
loudly and said, "Just
as I thought, you cannot
harm me. I am like a
mother protecting her
child. And now I will
take my child, Algo, by
the hand and lead it
down the path of
destruction."
"On your way, then,
because there is nothing
you can do."

PSIIBottomBorder.png


The party decides to destroy Mother Brain.

Early Script
PSIITopBorder.png
"You are such fools. If
you damage me, the world
will be thrown into a
panic. Without me, the
people of Algo are
helpless. They have
become too soft and used
to comfort.
If I were to
malfunction, the people
would die cursing my
fate. If that is your
aim, disable me! If not,
return now!

PSIIBottomBorder.png

"I will show no mercy.
Die!"
PSIIBottomBorder.png


After destroying the Mother Brain, Lutz will helpfully bring back anyone who died in battle.

Early Script
PSIITopBorder.png
Then they could hear
Lutz's voice; "Oh brave
warriors who rescued
Algo!" And <C1> and the
others came back to
life.

<C1>and the rest of the
company stood in
amazement where the
Mother Brain once was,
Algo had been suddenly
released from the Mother
Brain's control. The
Biosystems and weather
control systems suddenly
become useless. The
people of Algo awaited
the start of their hard
difficult life
without the Mother
Brain
But <C1> and the others
could feel a sence of
hope.

After walking back, Lutz informs the party that there are still others on the ship. Rolf and the others head to the back room of the ship, where they find dozens of men in black robes. Rolf asks who they are.

Early Script
PSIITopBorder.png
I don't like your tone
voice. Are you here
because you think we are
enemies?

If Rolf answers "Yes" (and why wouldn't he?)

Of caurse we hate you
for destroying the
Mother Brain
PSIIBottomBorder.png
Final Script
PSIITopBorder.png
Of course we hate you
for destroying the

PSIIBottomBorder.png


The leader of the robed men continues.

Early Script
PSIITopBorder.png
We are not people of
Algo. We are from a
place called Earth.
Our planet was green and
lovely, and we had a
highly advanced
civilization.
We are the last of our
race.

"The last?...?"
PSIIBottomBorder.png

PSIIBottomBorder.png


The Earthling ask if they want to know why their planet was destroyed. If Rolf says yes...

Early Script
PSIITopBorder.png
"We were a weaker people
then. Even though we
knew about the evil
inside us, we didn't
suppress it. We took
joy in controlling
nature; we didn't
realize we were
destroying ourselves.
until it was too late.
The death rattles of our
planet alerted us to our
failure. With the time
remaining us, we built a
spaceship to wander
among the stars. Then
we found Algo. We
found the people here
living in simple
happiness and became
very jealous
.
We decided we wanted
this planet. And do you
think you can stop us,
we who destroyed Palm?
You will die!

PSIIBottomBorder.png
Translation Notes
The line about becoming jealous was removed from the final script, though that much can be inferred from the remaining text anyway.


If he says no...

Early Script
PSIITopBorder.png
Since you are going to
die anyways, you might
as well know.

Final Script
PSIITopBorder.png

If Rolf says "Yes" at this point, the leader of the Earthlings gets some new dialogue.

Early Script
PSIITopBorder.png
In place of the home we
have lost we will have
to settle for this star.
The Mother Brain is
lost, but we can easily
create another. The
only ones who are
against us are you. If
you are eliminated, our
plans can proceed.
Perhaps we shall have to
kill you...

plans can proceed.
PSIIBottomBorder.png
Translation Notes
Another line removed from the final script. Must have been deemed extraneous.


If Rolf says "No" again, the leader will say this, then continue with the longer story from before.

Early Script
PSIITopBorder.png
If you want to know, we
would tell you.
PSIIBottomBorder.png
Final Script
PSIITopBorder.png

PSIIBottomBorder.png


Hearing the Earthling's threat, Lutz transports the other members of Rolf's party aboard the Noah.

Very clever! But it is
only a matter of time
before Algo is
destroyed.

Rolf and the others are suddenly attacked by hundreds of Earthlings!

Ending

The seven remaining members of Rolf's party fight the attacking Earthlings.

Early Script
PSIITopBorder.png
I can see the
confusion and
pity in your
eyes.
I will never
forgive you for
what you have
done.

Translation Notes
The ending portraits will glitch if the dialogue is more than seven lines long, which is why this message had to be reformatted.


Early Script
PSIITopBorder.png
You have shown
me the ugliness
of continued
existence.
But we will never
forget the beauty
that life once
held!
PSIIBottomBorder.png
Final Script

Translation Notes
The same problem is seen here, but instead of reformatting or rewriting the dialogue, they just cut Hugh's second line completely.
