Mad Man

[Laichin]

What? I look familiar to you?

Eh, you know what they say.

Everyone has a lookalike in the

world somewhere. Am I right

or am I right?

Niflheim ain't such a bad

place to live. Sure, Asgard's

all pretty and stuff, but there's too many rules. In this place, you

can enjoy a lot more freedom. After you get used to all the stink.

Did I say 'stink?'

I meant... 'fragrance.'

Alright, so the gods expelled

me, but I really oughtta thank

'em for sending me here!

What's that look for...?

What, you can't believe

that someone like me used

to live in Valhalla? Me neither! They really made a mistake when they put me up to live in Asgard!

Angrboda...?

Yeah, yeah!

I remember hearing something

about her when I usedta hang

with the gods up in Asgard.

Yeah, those guys were pretty

gangster about it. I mean, they took her soul, broke it in four pieces and stashed them in the deepest hole in Midgard!

Sure, she was a giant, but

they were pretty scared of her.

All her children ended up to be legendary monsters! Well, I'm

not sure if Lady Hell counts.

That's pretty harsh.

I mean, even if you die,

your soul has no place to

rest. Angrboda's soul is

all cut up and stuff!

What...? I just said,

the deepest underground

place in Midgard.

It's a dangerous joint

protected by gangs

of monsters.

Wait, you tellin' me

that you're gonna find

all of Angrboda's soul?!

You're crazy! If they end up

missing, the gods'll know I was

the one who tipped you off!

If I was gonna risk my soul,

I'd wanna enjoy the rest of my

afterlife as my much as I could

before the gods offed me. Man,

I'd need at least 40,000 Zeny to even have a decent time...

Hey...

This is sooo

not enough money

for me to enjoy myself

if my soul ends up getting

busted by the gods.

Now we're talkin'!

You're a true hero!

Right, you gotta go to the

lowest part of Glast Heim to

find Angrboda's soul pieces.

Check out the

big 1 o' clock,

big 5 o' clock,

big 7 o' clock and

the small 6 o' clock.

big 4 o' clock,

big 10 o' clock,

small 6 o' clock and the

very small 11 o' clock.

small 11 o' clock,

big 10 o' clock and

the small 11 o' clock.

Heh heh!

Her soul pieces are really

well hidden, so you gotta look around, even if you know the general location. And don't

tell anyone else about these locations or there'll be trouble.

Alright, kid.

Have fun!

What do I mean by

big and small? Hey man,

the answer to that is worth

at least... 20,000 Zeny.

If you wanna know,

cough up the cash!

Fine, fine.

Just don't come

crawling back when

you can't figure out

where the soul pieces are!

Hehehehe~

What is this?

You tryin to welch

me or somethin'?

Alright, listen up.

Big, small and very small

mean the distances from the

center of the map. So for big,

I mean look near the border of

the map. Easy, huh?

When I say small, you

gotta look in areas closer

than the borders of the map.

For very small, you gotta

look near the center. Got it?

Eh heh

heh heh heh!

Huh...?

Okay pal.

Oh yeah, about those

directions I gave you

last time? They work, but

you gotta know what I mean

by 'big' or 'small' whatever

o' clock means. That's right...

Matter of fact, I'll

tell you all about it.

Right after you pay me,

oh, I don't know, 20,000 zeny.

Bwahahaha!

Whatever, dude!

Freakin' cheapskate...

Oh yeah. Uh, I forgot to tell

you that Angrboda's soul pieces are sealed with the power of the gods. You can't just smash them open.

...Or maybe you could.

Anyway, it'll be better

if you had a weapon that

was solid, heavy and powerful.

But yeah, think about

what it means to break

a godly seal. Remember there's

some kinda rule that the gods imposed which you gotta follow

to release Angrboda's soul.

Ah, right. If you wanna

try different weapons for

breaking those seals, make

sure you got 'em in your

inventory and that they're

not equipped, alright?

Oh no...

Thank you for all

of this zeny! Money

might not be able to

buy happiness, but it

sure comes real close!

Hey... You gotta

go to the lowest part

of Glast Heim to find all

of Angrboda's soul pieces.

Once you get there...

And break those seals

in that order, okay?

Dude, Niflheim rocks.

It's like, a million times

better than that boring

old Asgard. Hell yeah!

Eh, I don't even wanna

know if you manage to

find all of Angrboda's soul

pieces, but if you do, don't

go bringin' close to me. If the

gods find out you have 'em...

But for the sake of

argument, let's say you

do happen to get them all.

In that case, you oughta get

Angrboda's soul to the Queen

of Hell right away, alright?

Ooh.. But not just any

yahoo can waltz up to her.

The best thing would be to

give it to one of her really

trusted retainers, I guess.

Now, who was he again?

I know he's always in

disguise as some sorta

really despressing guy

and I can't remember his

name for the life of me, but

he's around here somewhere...

Whoa...

.................

My freakin' head hurts.
