(The protagonist and Lord Preen step onto the stage, wearing futuristic attire that still retains elements of their original wardrobe)
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAViA3moYnw
Protagonist: (Looking around at the unfamiliar place) This place... it is so different.
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgWmxBG0V5
Lord Preen: (Emphasizing) Æther has changed everything.
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOzy9fGnA1
Protagonist: (Confused) Æther?
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHZja8GiYp
Lord Preen: Æther, dear friend, a marvel of our age! A force harnessed from the celestial heavens, powering our contraptions with the might of suspensium and the very essence of the skies.
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWvIAbWLk3
Protagonist: (Intrigued) Adapetus Mechanical, the brilliant inventor from the past. How wondrous it would be for him to witness these advancements.
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnhQnxlcQB
Lord Preen: Truly, it is none other than Adapetus Æther, the pupil of Adapetus Mechanical, who delves into this new technology.
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7uw6wRiUL
Protagonist: (surprised) Adapetus Æther? Another Adapetus? This is most unexpected!
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1Tw0TQcyo
Lord Preen: Aye, the Adapetus Æther is nothing like his predecessor, the Mechanical. He's plagued by paranoia and nervously tinkers with this new Æther technology.

(The protagonist and Lord Preen walk past the imposing Æther Machine, her wings beginning to glow and hum as they near it)
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2EKffvAkO
Protagonist: (Surprised) My, these wings do shine and hum most peculiarly.
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbCPK6HERt
Lord Preen: (Observant) Indeed, these wings seem to have a curious connection to Æther-powered devices. Perhaps we should find the Adapetus Æther for an explanation.
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSvKYT4zI0
Lord Preen: "Hark, the pursuit of another Adapetus, my dear! Were I bestowed a farthing for each such endeavour, I would rival the entire fortune of Narciss.
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3rtgw8MCI
Protagonist: (Deadpan) More Adepti, more enigma. It's as if our lives are scenes in a play.
211Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngrb46z9vW
Lord Preen: (with a wry smirk) Doth it not seen our lives are but scripted for dramatic theatrics?
