## Summary

"Centilutos protects the last stronghold,
and ensures the masters of the stronghold take not one step outside.
Centilutos protects the Heart of Atomagia,
so the masters of the stronghold may never claim it.
Centilutos protects me, Syca,
so the masters of the stronghold may never catch me.
This must be the final resting place of the masters of the stronghold.
That is your sole purpose henceforth."
This was the final command instructed to Centilutos,
the last Ancient Weapon of Sycrakea.
Although he brought ruin to Atoraxxion,
it is thanks to him that the heart... is now in my hands.
Yolu claimed a portion of his heart,
while Vaha earned all of its ire.
But me? I just want to embrace that broken heart.
Once I get to meet Syca, that is...
Even still, you have my gratitude, too.
Since you awoke this stronghold from Vahmalkea.
And it is also thanks to you that I have completed the
first steps to awakening the Heart of Atomagia.

### Step 1

- **Objective**: A familiar shadow appears on the Rune Magia

- **Summary**: "Centilutos protects the last stronghold,
and ensures the masters of the stronghold take not one step outside.
Centilutos protects the Heart of Atomagia,
so the masters of the stronghold may never claim it.
Centilutos protects me, Syca,

it is thanks to him that the heart... is now in my hands.
Yolu claimed a portion of his heart,
while Vaha earned all of its ire.

And it is also thanks to you that I have completed the
first steps to awakening the Heart of Atomagia.


### Step 2

- **Objective**: Yaz takes a step forward with determination.

- **Summary**: You know what lies beneath, don't you?
The destruction they will bring.
The hundred thousand Ators? Yes, I do.
And soon, that legion will be mine.
I did already warn you though, did I not?
The final festival to rebuild the world.
Are you planning another... Three Days of Darkness?!
You can't! The suffering you've already inflicted...!
The Three Days of Darkness?
Oh yes... That.
Well, maybe I will, maybe I won't. 
It would hardly fun if I told you all my plans now, would it?
However, there is one thing I can tell you.
It's something much... much grander, I can assure you.


### Step 3

- **Objective**: Yaz takes two steps forward with determination.

- **Summary**: The final Gladios was never held!
The heart's been dormant for far too long!
Yes, it has been dormant for an awfully long time.
And I see no particular reason to awaken it now, either.
Oh, but that's a minor issue. For simply destroying it will...
Well, you already know what that would cause, do you not, child?
But should you wish to see first-hand the merciless slaughter
an Ancient Weapon is capable of, then just keep talking.
...!!

Good. I must go now and find the second step necessary to activate this heart.
Who knows maybe we'll bump into each other again.
Oh, and if you intend to follow me,
you might want to deal with this one before you do...
Centilutos has long contained the entirety of Syca's malice.
And he's been waiting to share it just with you.
I'm sure once it absorbs you and your incredible power,
it will be a fine source of energy for the rest of the Ators.
Well, do your best for me.
Me and for my hundred-thousand Ators.
She's going to activate them... without the Dehkimas?
But how... how is that possible?
A-assistant! You need to chase that woman!
The fate of the world depends on it!
Not yet!!
Deal with this slippery one first!
I'll head back and check the records again. Maybe I missed something.
This isn't fleeing from battle! Call it... redirection of resources...?


### Step 4

- **Reward**: You've got this, right? This'll be a breeze for someone like you.
Hey, why the long face, assistant? You always do so well on your own!


### Step 5

- **Dialogue**: I need to catch my breath... my legs...
They've turned to jelly... Give me a hand, will you?


### Step 6

- **Reward**: Hey... you! What evil are you planning to do with the heart?
Wait... you can't!


### Step 7

- **Reward**: The Heart of Atomagia
is of no use to anyone now, is it?
