TRIAL
RESSA 1
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Visitant Point 1/3.-
...
[Ressa finds herself alone in the black and white world... She is face down at the pinnacle of Wingspear Pillar. All has settled...]
Ressa: ...[Opens her eyes.] ... Gosh, what happened? ...[Rolls over and sits up, rubbing the back of her head.] Erk, I'm gonna be so bruised tomorrow... ...[Looks up.] Is everything black and white...?
Susie: [From behind Ressa.] Ressa, are you alright?
Ressa: [Gasps.] Susie! Princess, it's you... i-isn't it?
Susie: Why yes, it is. [She holds out a paw to help Ressa up. Ressa takes the help.]
Ressa: [Rises to her feet.] ...Princess, are you okay? Where is everyone else, I could've sworn people arrived...
Susie: Oh, no. Hommay made off with the Soul Sphere...
Ressa: ...Did he!? No way, he couldn't have... ...D-did he?
Susie: He did. [Nods.] ...You did your best.
Ressa: Ohhhh shoot! ...H-hey... What happened to Ectie?
Susie: She is with the Illusions in the courtyard... The Fairies have returned home. We simply must let Light deal with this threat now... It is among us.
Ressa: Oh no... Oh no no no... I wish I could've been stronger...
Susie: Dear, it is as I said... You did your best.
...[There is silence. No wind blows...]
Ressa: ...Susie... W-weren't you in your battle outfit?
Susie: Hm?
Ressa: You changed... back into your royal gown? A-and why is everything lacking color? The Soul Spheres don't do that... Is... Is this all in my head?

Susie: Oh, Dear, I wish it was in our heads... I do not believe it was the Soul Spheres, rather another force which has to do with Darkness... You have been out for quite some time... I was so worried when we could not locate you...
Ressa: ...Have I really been out for long enough to Darkness to mess Soren up... even more?
Susie: Hmhm, don't worry, Dear. Everything will be fixed soon enough. Light has assured us. Come along, I shall have the servants prepare us up a nice cup of sugarstalk tea. Oh, we also have plenty of those little muffins you love. Will you come with me?
Ressa: Ooh~! The cute little bekoberry muffins! Sure, let's go home. Thank you Princess.
