Hero King: I see you're planning a journey.
Duran: Your Majesty! It was my weakness that allowed the enemy to escape. I wish to atone for my mistakes. I cannot forgive the wizard for what he did. He not only defeated me, he insulted you, my king. I do not plan to return home until I have made him pay.

Lucy Round: [floating above the flames consuming her home, completely distraught and crying in sorrow] Ugh... This horrible inferno... it feels like it's consuming the entire island... I was just barely able to escape, and I had no time to bring anybody with me... Trying to go back down to rescue anyone would not only be suicidal, it'd be pointless - the heat would exterminate me long before I could pull another out of harm's way... Everyone on the island is dying, and I can't do anything about it!!! This is absolutely terrible... [overhears laughter nearby] Huh? Is somebody laughing?!? During a disaster like this?!? What's so funny?!? [floats towards the direction of the sound]
Johnathan Stuffner: [Evil Laugh] This was the perfect plan... Even if Lucy doesn't perish in this inferno, then surely everything and everyone she treasures will... Well, aside from Marcus, but I'll deal with him later. *Evil Laugh* She's such a goody-two shoes that using her altruism against her is hilariously simple! I'd wonder how we didn't think of it before, except... we did, and the Heroes' League stopped us. But even if they arrive on the scene this time, how will they save any of Lucy's loved ones when this entire island is burning to ash? How will Lucy's bleeding heart continue on, when her entire circle of friends - that pitiful acting club of hers - has been completely obliterated? [Evil Laugh]
Lucy: [overhears this] What the... So... this entire fire... was started... just to destroy me... and my friends?!? H-how could somebody be so cruel as to commit an act like this?!? [angered] Johnathan... You're the one behind... behind this?!? H-how could you do this?!? Do you have any idea how many innocent lives you're destroying?!? Do you have any conscience at all?!?
Johnathan: [turns to notice Lucy Evil Laugh] So you've come to confront me, have you? Excellent. My father and I have gotten quite frustrated by your refusal to die. So, we have once again decided to destroy your will to live... Now, you shall watch helplessly as all of your friends and family perish in this great blaze I have conjured!
Lucy: D: Why you... [growing increasingly upset] You black-hearted scoundrel... You can never be forgiven for this!!!!
Johnathan: I don't need your forgiveness... I don't need anyone's forgiveness... I just need your life to end, and for your family line to end along with it!!! [Evil Laugh]
Lucy: :( ...If that's truly the way you see things... Then there's no mercy in store for you. You are no artist - just a demon who masquerades as one. W-when I say that you can't be forgiven... I mean it in the same sense that the Japanese do... For the sake of my friends, my family, and my future... And anyone else that you may attack in the name of your twisted sense of glory... I have no choice to destroy you...
Johnathan: Go ahead and try... But I'll be the one who destroys you!!! My father and I have been waiting a long, long time for this day... The day when your legacy is terminated once and for all!!! By tomorrow, the Round family will no longer exist!!! And you... You will be consumed by the inferno of my hatred!!!!!
Lucy: BURN IN HELL!!!! [charges directly at Johnathan]
