It reeks of rust and soot here... I don't like it one bit.

But Mr. Stefan said that this is my responsibility too. If I just do as he says, I'll earn everyone's respect and be able to live a good life.
Mysterious Woman
Mysterious Woman
But where should I start? What is it that I'm looking for? I can't think of anything... nothing... I need his help...

...Cyrille?
Have you... grown up?
Cyrille
Cyrille
Hmm? Are you... have we met before?
Cyrille
Cyrille
Sorry, I'm... my head is not in a good place. I can't remember much of anything at all, and I'm not able to think a lot...
Options
Have you been "trapped" by your box again?
How did you leave Backwater Pass?
I remember you... back when you were much younger.
Cyrille
Cyrille
"Trapped"? Hmm... hah, I'm quite confused right now, and I can't really understand...
Cyrille
Cyrille
Leave? Leave where? I can't remember where I'm from, and I can't remember leaving any place...
Cyrille
Cyrille
But... I don't have any recollection of you whatsoever. I'm sorry — I'm a little confused at the moment...
Cyrille
Cyrille
Mr. Stefan said that I don't have to make hard choices on my own. If it's an important enough occasion... then he'll be there for me. So... I'll just wait.

(Is the person she's been waiting for this whole time called Stefan? It doesn't look like he's shown up yet. Perhaps I can try to help her again...)
Options
Will solving this box puzzle help you?
I want to try and help you clear your mind.
Cyrille
Cyrille
I... don't know.
Cyrille
Cyrille
...Really? Do you know how?
Cyrille
Cyrille
Thank you. I... don't usually accept help from strangers, so I don't really know how to show my thanks. But I really am grateful to you.
Cyrille
Cyrille
These boxes... I don't know what connection they have with me, but I can't take my eyes off them... and I can't figure out what they mean.
Cyrille
Cyrille
Maybe by solving this puzzle... no, I can't get my hopes up. Mr. Stefan said to forget about any unrealistic expectations... Everything must be fought and won by ourselves.
Cyrille
Cyrille
I'll wait for you here. I'm not going anywhere.

...What's wrong?
...Has anything changed?
Cyrille
Cyrille
I... think I remember something.
Cyrille
Cyrille
I saw... people, lots and lots of people. They're gathered in a clearing, and they're all looking up at something...
Cyrille
Cyrille
It's me. They're looking at... me.
Cyrille
Cyrille
Mr. Stefan is there, and he's with me. My sister's not there... I really wish she were.
Options
(Stay silent and keep listening.)
When did this happen? Where did it happen?
Cyrille
Cyrille
Wait... I think I can... hear a voice, a voice coming out of the crowd.
Cyrille
Cyrille
They... they're saying bad things. Complaining, grumbling, and... cursing.
Cyrille
Cyrille
Those bad words... seem to be aimed at me. They don't like me. They despise me, and they even... hate me. I don't understand...
Cyrille
Cyrille
But Mr. Stefan is holding my hand. He's smiling, and he's always smiling at me... He says everything will get better and there's nothing to worry about.
Cyrille
Cyrille
I trust him because he's never lied to me before. Those bad words... don't matter. All I care about is his voice.
Cyrille
Cyrille
And then... and then...
Options
(Stay silent and keep listening.)
Then?
Cyrille
Cyrille
And then... darkness. All I can remember are these flashbacks... other than that, it's total darkness.
Cyrille
Cyrille
But at least I've got something back — does this prove that... what you just did actually worked?
Options
Do you feel free now?
Should I do it a few more times?
Cyrille
Cyrille
No. Even though I've got some of my memories back... I still can't go anywhere.
Cyrille
Cyrille
I...
Cyrille
Cyrille
I can feel the power trapping me... coming nearer again. It's coming, one step at a time... to wrap me in darkness once again...

You blink, and then...

Then?

You bump into Cyrille again in the Silvermane Guard Restricted Zone... And she's no longer a little girl.
It worked — she finally seems to have regained some of her memory fragments.
Keep at it. Solve another puzzle for her, and maybe she'll be able to completely rediscover herself...

(In the blink of an eye, the boxes reappear — just like how they did at Backwater Pass.)
Cyrille
Cyrille
I can't break this cycle. I don't know what to do...
Cyrille
Cyrille
I can't feel the past, and I can't see the future. I seem to be drifting alone in a blizzard, surrounded by nothing but darkness.
Cyrille
Cyrille
But I still want to get my own memories back, even if it's just a few tiny pieces. At least... I feel a little bit better having recovered those fragments.
Options
I'll try my best to help you regain yourself.
I doubt if it will work... but I'll still help you.
Cyrille
Cyrille
Thank you, stranger.
Cyrille
Cyrille
I can place my trust in people now... Would Mr. Stefan be happy if he knew about this?

You bump into Cyrille again in the Silvermane Guard Restricted Zone... And she's no longer a little girl.
You've helped her solve the fourth box puzzle.
Talk to her... Perhaps this time, she'll finally be ready to tell you the truth.

Cyrille
Cyrille
I remember... finally... I can remember. My identity, my past, what I'm looking for...
Cyrille
Cyrille
...It's shrunk up into a ball. It's hard to untangle it all, so I have to pull out each memory, one by one. I think I can do it... all on my own.
Options
So who exactly are you?
What is it that you're looking for?
Do you no longer need my help?
I... don't have anything to say.
Cyrille
Cyrille
I am...
Cyrille
Cyrille
Sorry... I'm sorry. I shouldn't risk my privacy like this! I know you mean no harm, and I do trust you — but Mr. Stefan said... he said...
Cyrille
Cyrille
I'm sorry. I just can't... If you can, please remove the name Cyrille from your memory, too! Just pretend... pretend that we've never even met.
Cyrille
Cyrille
I... it's just this thing...
Cyrille
Cyrille
I betrayed Mr. Stefan's trust. He put so much trust into me, but I... I couldn't even do this one simple thing.
Cyrille
Cyrille
I'm trying to fix everything and make amends, or else...
Cyrille
Cyrille
...No, no, thank you. Your involvement... should probably end here.
Cyrille
Cyrille
I'm sorry. I didn't want to offend... It's thanks to you that I have all these precious memories back, but this is also for your sake...
Cyrille
Cyrille
If we exchange too much information... if I say something that I shouldn't... then Mr. Stefan will definitely...
Cyrille
Cyrille
I'm sorry... I know you put a lot of time into helping me, and you deserve an answer...
Cyrille
Cyrille
But I can't just share this with you. I don't want you to get caught up in bad business like this. I don't want to see a good person get hurt...
Cyrille
Cyrille
So... let's stop there. I'll remember your kindness, but please try to forget all about this... all about me.

(In any case, let's report this to the security personnel responsible for the restricted zone...)

Report what you found to Dunn

You bump into Cyrille again in the Silvermane Guard Restricted Zone... And she's no longer a little girl.
She seems to have recovered her memories, but refuses to share them with you. According to her, it's for your own good.
In any case, you feel duty-bound to report this to the Silvermane supervisor on duty... Go chat with your old friend Dunn.
I met this strange woman in the restricted zone...
Dunn
Dunn
A strange woman? Are you sure it wasn't someone from the logistics team or Scientific Research Division?
Dunn
Dunn
Mmm... Tell me what you found. If necessary, I'll immediately send some Silvermane Guards over to investigate.
System
System
You tell Dunn about your encounter with Cyrille...
Dunn
Dunn
Mmm... a strange woman spouting nonsense, and Armory Boxes just popping out of thin air...
Dunn
Dunn
It sounds... utterly outrageous, but then again, it doesn't seem that strange coming from you.
Dunn
Dunn
That's a warehouse stacked with old abandoned ammo, and nobody really goes by there at all — but to tell the truth, I've heard a few weird rumors in my time...
Dunn
Dunn
Anyway I think I got the gist of the situation. I'll send some Silvermane Guards over to investigate things thoroughly — and give the warehouse a once-over at the same time.
Options
Do you know or have you heard about a guy called Stefan?
Dunn
Dunn
...Stefan? No, never heard of him. Have you got some business with him? Anything I can help out with?
Options
...Never mind. Forget I said anything.
Could you help me look into this name?
Dunn
Dunn
Hmm? That's a bit weird of you... Eh, I won't pry.
Dunn
Dunn
No problem. I'll send someone to check the Silvermane Guard roster.
Dunn
Dunn
Anyways, thanks for your contribution to maintaining order here in the restricted zone, outsider. I'll give you a heads-up as soon as I hear anything.

Thank you for your kindness, stranger. I'm sorry that I can't tell you everything...

Please forgive me. It's for your own safety... Please, just forget about me.
