[A split image of Exelica and Crueltear is shown to the player]

Crueltear: Exelica, can you hear me? Are you alright?
Exelica: Sister! What's the plan? What about the Ver'mith?
Crueltear: C'rna_dyne's anti-plan. She'll call us soon! We'll have to seal the access with other units...
Crueltear: Exelica!

[Screen flashes as Exelica's equipment is scattered, as if the Triggerheart was damaged]

Exelica: Sis...ter
Exelica: Um, we were bursting through Ver'mith's domain.
Exelica: That's right, before the explosion!!
Crueltear: That's right. We didn't try to shoot it. Could that be...?

[C'r_na appears and both Triggerhearts stare at her.]

Exelica Story Mode 04 - C'r na

C'r_na appears to bring the good and bad news about the situation.


C'r_na: [C'r_na materialization sound is heard] I'm glad you two are right. After you recovered, we received terrible news about your parts.
They are badly damaged, overheated and unable to push further. I'm afraid you'll have to wait until we remodel them.
Crueltear: C'r_na. I see, thanks for helping us.
Exelica: What about our units?
C'r_na: Damage is critical. In order to fully repair them, we will have to get new materials for remodeling them into our custom-made models.
C'r_na: We can't expect to get to our home planet to get them repaired because we have insufficient report data and can't match the stars.
Exelica: What do you mean "Can't expect"?
C'r_na: Your unit metabolism rate has decreased, we need to attach Reboot and Repair mode.
C'r_na: We will begin the unit reparations soon, so you'll have to wait and stay out. We will call you later when done.
Crueltear: Understood. You take the control, then.
Exelica: [Thinking to herself] (Star of hope... just which star is here?)
Exelica: We'll be wandering the Earth with this star.

Exelica: Ah, daddy.
Exelica: [Thinking to herself] Skiltall. Because we got back to our home planet, we met the human planet for the first time. We exist as humans because we have something to protect.

Exelica's expression changes as Skiltall calls her and talks about her second home; Earth.

Exelica: Can we see it someday?
Skiltall: Unfortunately, we are still unsure about our calculations. Wonder if there is something like a friend.
Exelica: Friend? Like, going together with a friend, right?
Skiltall: I mean... flying in the skies gracefully.
Exelica: Grace, huh. Was it because we reflected our flights during performance in the promotion agency?
Skiltall: But that's not it, and we didn't see the weapons. That's you.
Exelica: I'm sorry about it. But I don't really want to fight. I'll be put in the C'rna_dyne.
Skiltall: Don't worry about it. But, in this place, remember that you're not humans.
Exelica: Father...
Exelica: My sister and I are from below, this planet is filled with sunlight, like in a half rotation.
Exelica: Like father told us, this might be the place we will live in... and remember that we'll find our new place.

Skiltall: It's good timing. Sorry about that.
Exelica: Father, thank god you're okay.
Exelica: Why must we think about Ver'mith now!?
Crueltear: The dimensional space shuttle has an irregular usage... isn't it?
C'r_na: After transferring, us and Ver'mith will be separated in a lagged normal space and it won't rise, I think.
Exelica: That means...
C'r_na: Of course, we'll guess.
Exelica: ......
C'r_na: Other than that, hurry and enter Battle Mode. Because there's not always play all necessary conditions, but there is an anxiety...
C'r_na: Use the spare units to reboot. Time the marching all-out attack well!
Exelica: Sister!
Crueltear: Exelica, We're going to help C'rna_dyne. You go on ahead!
Skiltall: You're going anyway?


Part 8: Exelica's Decision[]

Exelica Story Mode 10 - Exelica's decision

Exelica is faced with one single decision: Fight back.

Exelica: [Thinking to herself] Ver'mith's attacks are really disastrous. It will become dangerous when no one comes to protect.
Exelica: If possible, if we enter the unknown planet from sides while not gaining more threats, we can manage to hold them.
Exelica: We'll go now. For this purpose we are Triggerhearts. If we can't go to the other place this time, we could be destroyed by Ver'mith.
Skiltall: ......
Exelica: It's alright. We're Triggerhearts, after all.
Exelica: We have a chance to succeed. We will go back. Take care of Omelete for me until then.

Notes[]

  • If the player let Faintear Imitate escape at the end of Stage 1, there will be a glitch of some sorts where Exelica will say "It's Jamming!? I can't catch her with sensors!, That Triggerheart, is now our enemy? ....no, it's better to move forward!" before Imitate escapes, and again before the stage ends after Imitate retreats. This game error could imply the possiblity of an intended "Failed battle" dialogue that was cancelled by the developers at the last minute.
  • The Normal Endings of Exelica and Crueltear are very similar to the "UBW Route" ending of Fate/Stay Night, where Shiro Emiya sacrifies himself, while Sakura Matou waits for him to come back home, without knowing about his fate.
  • It is possible that the Normal endings of both Exelica and Crueltear are based upon the "Denial" stage of the grieving process as both endings involve the surviving Triggerheart refusing to accept the death of her sister unit and keeps the hope of seeing her again.
  • It is unknown how Exelica and Crueltear lost their equipment in the ending cutscenes, While Exelica only has the leg parts of her armor, Crueltear's Combat Gear was totally removed, leaving her in Spec Suit only.
  • Also, it is not explained how did Omelette got inside C'rna_dyne, since Exelica gave her to Skiltall to take care of while she was out.
