Prelude Skylark Nightsong
>We're here, Commandant.
Having escaped the turbulence of the transport craft, you take a deep breath as you step onto the ground. Looking up at the massive city, you are still amazed by its magnificence.
After the battle with Echo, Cervantes left Constellia in the hands of Babylonia with barely an instruction.
Since then, WGAA has stationed a team in Constellia. Occasionally, they would discover something new...
Why did they send us to Constellia on such short notice?
Commandant—over here!
An energetic Construct with pink hair waves at you on the landing pad.
Ayla is cheerful as always.
Ayla runs toward you as you speak.
You're right on time! Quickly! We'll walk and talk.
Gesturing the Gray Ravens and you to follow her, Ayla hurries away with a smile still on her face.
We found a new, special "gallery" in Constellia that only opens at a specific season!
Care to guess what season it is?
What... season?
Ayla looks even more joyous upon Lucia's response.
Ta-da—it's SPRING!
...Boring.
Spring? It's surely a romantic season.
Of course! I heard that back in the Golden Age, people liked to go hiking in spring for romantic dates!
We believe this gallery was themed after spring, which is why it activated automatically not long ago...
Is that the one?
While you walk, that mysterious gallery themed after spring appears before you.
The exterior of the gallery extends outward in layers like a blossoming rose. A flock of unknown bionic birds chirps as they fly past the building.
What lovely birds!
I did some research on the gallery. Those birds are called skylarks, and they represent love and courage!
So, what do you need Gray Raven for? Do you want us to bring it down so you can inspect its interior?
Hey! Don't be so impulsive!
Ayla stops Lee from further assembling his gun before placing her hands behind her back and looking at you.
Hehe! Actually, what I need is more test subjects!
This maze seems to be testing the rapport between two people. WGAA has sent many people in there, but no one has passed.
But I immediately thought about Gray Raven when it comes to great rapport!
...Hmph.
I happened to find out about your schedule through... a special means, and Celica immediately assigned you the mission.
It's true that we haven't had any urgent missions lately...
I even prepared a small surprise for you, Commandant—look!
It's the Shark-speare costume, Spring Maze Special Edition!
"Who's that descending from the sky? Shark-speare! Leading its friends out of the maze—without fear!" See? I even came up with the slogan!
Treat it as a vacation! There are plenty of interesting sights to visit in Constellia!
You're right, Commandant. We haven't been on vacation together in a while.
Hey! Don't you lie to me! Celica told me how free you are!
You haven't really taken a break lately, Commandant. Why not use this opportunity to relax?
Yeah!
The entrance is right here!
Above the entrance are the words "Looking Glass Vows" forged in metal. An adorable metal fence stands in your way, on which a small skylark perches and sings.
You can claim your "Looking Glass Pass" here. That's your ticket inside.
You can only claim a limited amount of passes every day, so don't waste your chances!
Ayla chuckles cheekily before pushing open the door to the gallery.
Well then, Commandant... welcome to Looking Glass Vows, where the skylarks sing all night!
