Ian: Joker… betrayed you?
Orochi: I mean, we don’t know for sure if he really betrayed us or not, but…
Orochi: He’d disappeared, just like that…
Niko: Tsk…
Orochi: I’d always just assumed that he was done in by some other beast while we were busy.
Orochi: Since he was supposed to sound the whistle, he stood on guard by himself. We never saw him again after we’d started.

Orochi: Since he was supposed to sound the whistle, he stood on guard by himself. We never saw him again after we’d started.
Orochi: He’s not a bad person. He just got caught up in an accident, or something…
Niko: He lived!!
Orochi: ...Yeah, that’s true.
Niko: He’s the only one… I won’t forgive… Just remembering that miserable fucking mug makes me―!
Orochi: Calm down a little, Niko!
Niko: How can I calm down!? How dare that piece of shit traitor show up here so fucking casually!?
Niko: He lived!!
Orochi: ...Yeah, that’s true.
Niko: He’s the only one… I won’t forgive… Just remembering that miserable fucking mug makes me―!
Orochi: Calm down a little, Niko!
Niko: How can I calm down!? How dare that piece of shit traitor show up here so fucking casually!?
Abel: But you don’t know if he really betrayed you guys y―
Niko: Shut the fuck up! If he didn’t betray us, then explain why he was nowhere to be found!?
Niko: If he betrayed us, that means he ran away, doesn’t it!? I won’t rest… until he’s dead!
Orochi: That’s enough, Niko…
Niko: What!? Why are you so calm about this!? You lost your fucking arm in that fight, remember!?
Orochi: It’s… fine, though. My arm doesn’t matter.
Niko: No, it’s not!! ...That’s my partner’s arm.
Orochi: ...Niko…
Niko: Shut the fuck up! If he didn’t betray us, then explain why he was nowhere to be found!?

Orochi: ...Niko…
Niko: Joker… I’m gonna kill that bastard. And you lot better not get in the fucking way next time.
Niko: This is our problem.
Orochi: H-Hey, Niko! Wait a m―
Niko: This is our problem.
Orochi: H-Hey, Niko! Wait a m―
Krone: ...So that’s what his deal is, huh? Fucking idiot…
Burgess: If this all really happened, then he likely didn’t want to come back here…
Ian: Did Joker really betray them? I’d never thought of him as an underhanded guy or a villain...
Krone: Ha… Fuck if I know.

Krone: Ha… Fuck if I know.
Abel: I wanna believe he’s not a bad guy… You too, right? Setsu?
> I don’t trust him.
Abel: W-Why are you sayin’ somethin’ like that!? You think he’s a lowlife!?
Burgess: Calm down, Abel. Setsu has a point.
Burgess: If they’d hear that kind of testimonial… other people wouldn’t trust him, either.
Abel: Maybe, but… But what are we doing here, then, if we don’t believe him!?
Burgess: Calm down, Abel. Setsu has a point.
Burgess: If they’d hear that kind of testimonial… other people wouldn’t trust him, either.
Abel: Maybe, but… But what are we doing here, then, if we don’t believe him!?
> I want to believe in him.
Abel: Right!? You don’t think he’s that bad of a guy either, do ya!?
Flost: ...It’s true that if we only listen to their side of the story, we won’t know the full picture.
Evan: Right, if we don’t try to hear out Joker, we’ll never know whether he actually betrayed them or not.
Evan: Right, if we don’t try to hear out Joker, we’ll never know whether he actually betrayed them or not.
Orochi: ...Hey, what are you guys planning on doing from here on out?
Burgess: We haven’t really decided yet… But I’d like to wait for Joker first.
Niko: ...You think he’s gonna come back?
Burgess: I don’t know… But it’s our responsibility to prepare some place for him to return to.
Niko: Ha. Bold of you to say that so casually… If I see that bastard’s mug, I’m gonna obliterate him on the spot.

Orochi: Hey, Niko, I told you to stop it! Don’t talk like that.
Orochi: Anyway, if you guys are planning to stay in the area for a bit, then how about staying with us in our cave?
Krone: ...Is there a place to sleep?
Orochi: It’s not a very luxurious place, but it’s easy to live in back there.
Dolly: By “back there”, do you mean the graveyard?
Orochi: Yeah… We don’t want to abandon it.
Burgess: ...Got it. Thank you for being so generous. Could you lead the way?
Orochi: Sure. Let’s move as quickly as possible. It’s gonna be night soon, and I’d like to avoid any encounters with the beasts.
