Editing Dragon Quest IV Transcript (section)

===Azimuth===
{{spoiler|start}}
(*): Behold, (traveller/ye travellers) of the Goddess's earthly garden! Stand humbled at the Azimuth, gateway to Zenithia!

(*): Have you come here on a pilgrimage to the divine sky?

(*): Greetings and farewells. Hope and despair. Life and death. The Goddess giveth and the Goddess taketh away!

(*): Tread boldly, sheep of the Almighty Guardian, for thou art watched and thou shalt be provided for!

(*): Beware the dangers of sorrow and grief. Those with heavy hearts are vessels of the Wicked One.

(*): But all are born into this world blessed. Blessed by the one true deity, the Almighty Goddess!

(*): Estark, born of the fiery flames of Nadiria, was struck down by a great (hero/heroine), just as the prophecy foretold.

(*): But now he strives to be reborn. A new evil stirs within his condemned and tormented soul.

(*): A terrible happening has taken place...

(*): Psaro the Manslayer, he who fraternises with monsterkind, has finally managed to perfect the Secret of Evolution.

(*): There is hearsay among us that Psaro the Manslayer has already unleashed the forbidden secret deep in his underground lair.

(*): The Secret of Evolution that was sealed away from the hands of mortals long, long ago.

(*): Why hast this almighty calamity befallen us?

(*): Once the armlet of transmutation is employed, the Secret of Evolution shall be still more fearsome than it was before.

(*): I know the truth about the man!

(*): Psaro the Manslayer is a vessel of evil, his heart steeped in a curdled soup of hatred.

(*): He must be stopped! Stopped before he evolves into a being more foul and full of evil than has ever cursed this world.

(*): Open your ears to the voice of the Goddess as I have done!

(*): It was I who heard the Goddess's prophecy about the great (hero/heroine) who would strike down Estark.

(*): It is exactly as the prophecy foretold. That you would come here to the Azimuth, this too was revealed to me by the Goddess.

(*): But now there is only silence... What will happen now that Estark is defeated is a mystery even to me...

(*): Wise and all-powerful Goddess! What does this mean?

(*): I have heard tell of a tower somewhere on this island that leads to Zenithia itself!

(*): But even if the Stairway to Zenithia really does exist, it is not open to all.

(*): It is written in the ancient scriptures that only one with all of the legendary Zenithian Equipment would be granted access.

(*): Your feet are blessed, for you stand at the Azimuth, the closest mortals can be to Zenithia.

(*): But beware, for Nadiria, the underworld, is not far distant either.

(*): In the north-west of this very island is a cave so deep that it touches the abyss. A cave that no human may approach.

(*): Only Zenithians and monsterkind may enter the cave. That is what the legend says.

(*): It must have been an act of the Goddess. The person you see sleeping there fell out of the sky.

(*): What has become of Hero? I must meet with (him/her) urgently.

(*): Hero! We have been awaiting you!

(*): You must meet with the Dragon God at once.

(*): The world is on the very brink of destruction!
