Characters

#01 - Candela's

Eureka Mayor Candela, it's time again for the yearly Dossoles Warrior Champion. We've heard Lungmen's accepted your invitation this year – is that true?
Candela Oh? Honestly, I expected you to make me go over the entire competition again. Seems you've done plenty of homework. Good on you, good on you. That's right. It's been an age and a half since the last time Lungmen accepted a Dossoles invitation. We've been dealing closely for a long, long while as partner cities in commerce and trade, but even so, we've gone a very long time without meeting now. I really do miss them. Of course, it's hard for Governor Wei himself to show up given how busy he is day in and day out, so he'll be sending some stand-in rep this time.
Eureka I imagine anyone who can stand for Governor Wei must be a real big figure in Lungmen too. I've heard, though,  it's not just a singular rep?
Candela You get your news fast. Not even I know anything specific about who or why, though – the only thing I know is it was the suggestion of Governor Wei's brilliant wife, Lady Fumizuki. I imagine the reps must be young elites too, hahaha.
Eureka I see. Speaking of which, Mayor Candela, you seem to focus a lot of your attention on Lungmen, even though as a city it's so far away from Dossoles. Can I ask about your reasons?
Candela That's a long story, and this interview wouldn't be able to hold it. As a synopsis, about twenty or thirty years ago, I was scrambling all about every country in the process of establishing this city, and met plenty of people doing it. And out of all of them, Governor Wei was the most  interesting one I ever met. You could say the ties bringing Dossoles and Lungmen together are the ones bringing Governor Wei and I  together, hahaha.
Eureka Sounds like I should go visit Lungmen myself if I have the chance. Oh, yeah, in terms of time, word is two of the reps might be able to arrive in time for the Dossoles Warrior Champion – which is to say, any chance they might join it?
Candela Hahaha, you've hit on what I'm looking forward to most. If Governor Wei's reps make it in time, and they're willing to participate, then this year's competition will be an  absolute blast. I'll confess, I'm looking forward to it very much.
Comments A) It'd be mega-fun for sure if Lungmen's reps could join in!
B) They say the Governor of Lungmen's a real hottie. Gosh, I'd meet him.
C) You're as charged with passion as ever, Mayor Candela!

#02 - Mizuki's

Eureka Contestant Mizuki, hello! Congrats on making it out of the prelims – could you tell us a bit about how things went for you in there?
Mizuki Hey everyone! So here's the deal, I ended up a bit peckish after touring all around the city and burning off some energy, and that's when I saw the restaurant with the Big Appetite eating competition that I already had my eyes on from before. To make things better, I'd get a discount if I managed to place, and I'd even get to eat for free if I took first place, so I decided – why not? Also, the ads said that if I managed to make the finals, I'd get to taste the gourmet artistry of top chefs from Leithanien, Columbia, and Bolívar on the Big Boat.
Eureka Woah, talk about two fowlbeasts with one stone. Maybe even three! So, when our staff were getting you registered, we saw that you come from Higashi. I wonder, does the food of Dossoles suit your tastes?
Mizuki Mhm! The food tastes absolutely divine, from home-made ingredients to rare ingredients I've never seen before. I heard that restaurant was known for its delicate, exquisitely-crafted main dishes, but I never expected them to bring out so many small-portion dishes in succession. Truly, an extravagant affair. The competition system is also very special – instead of focusing on sheer quantity to fill you up, each dish presents a tidal wave of flavor that quickly sweeps you off your feet in bouts of satisfaction. However, my pursuit of gourmet is not something that can be satisfied so easily! Moreover, my digestive system is very efficient at extracting nutrients from what I eat. Though all the ingredients were rare and precious, their value stems from their unique taste, and they weren't that difficult to digest.
Eureka What a unique analysis, you're putting even me to shame! To think that some of the defeated contestants accused Contestant Mizuki of having no taste buds, or cheating with some sort of Originium Arts to eat so much, it seems that those accusations are self-defeating, are they not? By the way, did you know we have a special testing device at the competition venue in case of cheating through Originium Arts? Alright, so one last thing. Contestant Mizuki, would we be fortunate enough to be able to hear some insight as to why you chose to participate by yourself instead of with a team? From our previous experiences, this is a significant disadvantage. Are there any special tactical considerations, or do you still have some ace up your sleeve?
Mizuki Uhh... Actually, I didn't have any special plans, I just happen to be more comfortable doing things on my own. Things tend to get more complicated with other people involved. Besides, I also trust that there aren't any bad guys who don't plan on playing fair entering the competition. Ah, but even if there were, I definitely wouldn't lose.
Eureka Uh huh, you seem quite confident. By the looks of things, Contestant Mizuki still has some little secrets of his own when it comes to his strength. Everyone, let's continue to tune in as we look forward to the following events. A contestant from a country with its fate intertwined with the sea, with a huge potential under a seemingly thin frame, Mizuki! What kind of surprises will Team Pacer-man bring for us next?
Comments A) An Ægir, huh? A rare find!
B) Cute is justice! I'll be campaigning for him!
C) Too young, and flying solo. Let's be cautiously optimistic.

#03 - Ernesto's

Eureka As the Mayor's capable underling, is there any fresh inside news you'd be willing to leak to us?
Ernesto You flatter me. It's my privilege to be able to work under Ms. Candela. Regarding the competition this year, seeing as competitors' regulations, the competition events, and items to be aware of have all been detailed clearly in competition publicity, I'll leave that alone. This time, our competition field's going to extend a lot further than before, directly covering more than half the city, with all athletes to be covered live from the start line to the finish, and plenty more to entertain both in and outside of the field! Take it from me, whether you're a friend who wants to give competing a shot, or you're a part of the crowd readying up to enjoy your holiday and watch the show at your own pace, this competition won't disappoint you. We hope with all our hearts that all our friends who've come to Dossoles will have an unbeatable holiday to remember. Oh, yes, and I can leak this as special service – the guests Ms. Candela's especially invited are already on their way here, and should arrive in the next few days. I'm looking forward to what surprise they have in store for this city of ours!
Eureka A lot of people watching are majorly interested in Dossoles' most popular weapons store, and now its mystifying  proprietor is here before our eyes! Quick, introduce yourself to everybody!
Ernesto You're too kind. "Dossoles Sidearm Protection Armor Boutique" was just a little store that I opened out of a  personal interest at first, and I owe it to everyone's profound love that it's where it at today. My store's goods are all personally stocked by myself, all weapons of a quality I'd consider not too shabby, with some even being  special goods from far-off places – and definitely rare sights in Bolívar! If any of you are short of a weapon on hand,  or want to learn more about those special pieces, you're welcome to come in-store to discuss and purchase. Of course, I very much extend that welcome to all visitors here to see the sights too, so don't hold back – drop by  for a look while you're out and about! In addition... owing to the post I hold, the "Dossoles S.P.A. Boutique" may be temporarily shut at times. For that, I  can only ask for your patience, please.
Comments A) Who knows if we might meet those mysterious guests on the streets?
B) Where can we find the address of this "Dossoles S.P.A. Boutique"?
C) Sir, you are SO hot!!

#04 - Pancho's

Eureka Mr. Pancho, in the past, you've been the captain of the cruise ship, rarely ever surfacing in public. But apparently this year, you decided to be the competition's main guest of honor yourself. Can I ask, what happened for such a change of heart?
Pancho Nothing. I don't know how to mince words, so me showing up is nothing but an embarrassment, but I can't deny the Mayor's done me a favor, and I ought to do something for her.
Eureka Sure, sure. Speaking of which, the cruise ship in the middle of the artificial sea's always been kind of mysterious to to us layfolk. Would you be able to give us a primer?
Pancho I wouldn't know either. I just take it in circles. The Mayor says it was restored according to plans handed down by Iberia, so that's something
Eureka Iberian technology, huh? Now that's mysterious! ...Oh, yeah, yeah, you've seen a couple of prelim matches already. Can I ask you what you think of this year's competition?
Pancho It's nothing special. Many of these people who showed up won't make it far. If you ask me, the majority who signed up to the competition aren't thinking about winning, just grabbing some rewards. Heh, the Bolívarians really have degraded.
Eureka Ahaha. Well, you know, if you go by the competition rules, you've already made bank just passing the prelims. Well, then, finally, do you have anything you'd like to say to our contestants, or our tourists?
Pancho The Major often tells you to live in the present. It's good advice, to be sure. Treat this competition like it's the last one you'll be able to enjoy. Have fun, be happy.
Comments A) Iberia's tech seriously goes way too deep!
B) What an intimidating oldie! Eureka must've found it hard even to breathe!
C) Mr. Pancho sure talks big. Can we get him to join the competition?

#05 - D.D.D.'s

Eureka D.D.D., we get the impression you rarely take up invites to perform in other cities. Why come to Dossoles now? Is there someplac here that's drawn you in?
D.D.D. Nada.[note 1] I just wanted to scope out the kind of place Bolívar is, feed my creative appetite, so accepting the invitation here worked out perfectly
Eureka I see, heading to entire outher countries to look for inspiration. Out of anyone across the whole land, only D.D.D., folks. Well, then, now you're here, what's your first impression on Dossoles like?
D.D.D. Mm... seem real fun and bright at first, but after two days here, it's too noisy. Everything in this city feels like it's howling at top volume at me - raring to make its own experience known and felt - before it gapes its scrupulously adorned giant bloody maws, waiting for anyone ignorant to waltz up and deliver themselves inside.
Eureka Ahaha, that's D.D.D., original viwpoints like nothing else. Alright, has the city given you any kind of inspiration yet?
D.D.D. A bit, I guess. What I was looking for at the start was Bolívar's local style, but I didn't predict the impression this city makes would completely cover up Bolívar's. There's a sense of heterogeneity to it that I subconciously totally reject. But it's interesting, too. Firstly, I plan on trying to take in this heterogeneity of my own accord. Not sure what I'm specifically gonna do yet, there. Secondly, this heterogeneity might be majorly fierce, but it's too monotonous, and monotonous means dull. I need a stronger, more vivid, more powerful kind of beat, still, and I don't know if I'll be able to find it here.
Eureka I hope you'll be able to! Finally, on behalf of all the fans and the city administration, I'd like to ask, will your new album be premiered at Dossoles?
D.D.D. I don't know.
Comments A) D.D.D.'S seriously got so much personally! I'm behind you all the way forever!
B) D.D.D.'s new album? Gotta buy a dozen of it when it drops!
C) Just what is it like under D.D.D.'s mask there? I'm so curious!
