(The protagonist and Lord Preen step onto the stage, wearing futuristic attire that still retains elements of their original wardrobe)

Protagonist: (Looking around at the unfamiliar place) This place... it is so different.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD36irMpgV6
Lord Preen: (Emphasizing) Æther has changed everything.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVXMzo3mME
Protagonist: (Confused) Æther?
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MPVqtGlay
Lord Preen: Æther, dear friend, a marvel of our age! A force harnessed from the celestial heavens, powering our contraptions with the might of suspensium and the very essence of the skies.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwTx1h7Fn4
Protagonist: (Intrigued) Adapetus Mechanical, the brilliant inventor from the past. How wondrous it would be for him to witness these advancements.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LU8ysznMc
Lord Preen: Truly, it is none other than Adapetus Æther, the pupil of Adapetus Mechanical, who delves into this new technology.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6JuUJKzZw
Protagonist: (surprised) Adapetus Æther? Another Adapetus? This is most unexpected!
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ530kWCs7ay
Lord Preen: Aye, the Adapetus Æther is nothing like his predecessor, the Mechanical. He's plagued by paranoia and nervously tinkers with this new Æther technology.

(The protagonist and Lord Preen walk past the imposing Æther Machine, her wings beginning to glow and hum as they near it)
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnkliJWxwB
Protagonist: (Surprised) My, these wings do shine and hum most peculiarly.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEthVaD95O
Lord Preen: (Observant) Indeed, these wings seem to have a curious connection to Æther-powered devices. Perhaps we should find the Adapetus Æther for an explanation.

Lord Preen: "Hark, the pursuit of another Adapetus, my dear! Were I bestowed a farthing for each such endeavour, I would rival the entire fortune of Narciss.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2bsEmZ5Ms
Protagonist: (Deadpan) More Adepti, more enigma. It's as if our lives are scenes in a play.
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOMo6nMTn1
Lord Preen: (with a wry smirk) Doth it not seen our lives are but scripted for dramatic theatrics?
