~I saw it with my own eyes. Miss Marlena brought some wilted flowers back to life.
~The power of the hero Orakio will protect you from Laia, Goddess of Darkness...
~Monsters have popped up out of nowhere around here lately, but... That's impossible! No monsters have appeared since 1,000 years ago, when Orakio defeated Laia..
~In this world, those called Orakians are people of light, and those called Laians are people of darkness. I've never seen a Laian myself, though.
~Laia's people wield mysterious powers. They use them to try to take over the world!
~I was accosted by one of Laia's people at the lake in the northeast forest! The girl never blinked - she HAS to be a Laian!
~They say that across the sea live people who worship the black witch Laia as a goddess.
~Have you even seen a Laian? They look just like us!
Man in House:
~The Laians attack us with monsters of their own creation, while we Orakians use ancient machines and robots to fight.
~Hey! Is it true that Orakians eat Laians?
~When I grow up, I'll become a big important magician, create lots of monsters, and wipe out those demons that worship Orakio!
~1,000 years ago, the goddess of love, Laia, was slain by your land's Orakio.
~~"Orakio's Law" forbids them from killing us directly.
Instead, they send their robots. Now, barring a miracle, they're poised to annihilate us.
That should help.. Now let me quote Japanese AYN to prove the origin of the cyborgs:
Now remember.. You can go from Aquatica - Aridia without gems
~A-A report! A giant army of robots has appeared out of nowhere!
~Soldier: The robots are flying Orakio's colors and are invading our lands! Our armies of monsters are nearly annihilated!
~ It's horrible! As soon as you left, a new army of robots crossed the sea!
~The robots wanted to know how to use my Twins' Ruby...
~Ayn! Words can't express my gratitude. Use the Twins' Ruby Lann has! Long ago, I used that ruby to sneak into Riik's world...
In Flotraan
~"Satellite"? Ahh...headed for Satellite, are you? Don't you know? The marauding robot armies come from there!
~Townspeople (Children) : Our castle was taken over by robots who appeared out of nowhere...
Now to figure out the journey of the robots.. To do that you have to figure our Lyle's journey... Maybe it can help. Lyle did a hell of alot of journeying! I don't think this is right but from the japanese translation we have, i tried to put it together.
Lyle - all started cause he needed a Orakian descendant to fix the weather tower that the Lashute Sages screwed up to bring the Dev War back again. This caused Rhys and Lyle to open the doorways between the worlds and brought Siren/Lune back.
1)Aquatica - Aridia (via the 4 forts)
2)Steal the Twins Ruby in Haz
3)Landen - Steals Maia and makes his way back to Aquatica through Landen-Aridia-Aquatica
4)Lena frees Rhys and Rhys sets off
5)Lena follows Lyle and manages to make it to Aquatica and gets attacked by monsters
6)Lyle rescues her and carries her across the sea into the castle (An Agoean person relates this)
7)Lyle returns to Landen and sets up shop in the cave
He gives Rhys the Forest Saphire and takes off to Aridia (via his Twins Ruby)
9)Waits for Rhys inside the Weather Tower
10)Joins Rhys
11)Rest is history
I personally think Siren had access to the tunnels that NO ONE can use. He couldn't use the ones LUNE's soldiers guard.
