“	I only realized that day that I cannot blindly trust what my eyes show me. In that moment of the past, I was made a fool. The shallow promise that our safety would be secured… The thin piece of contract is what cost me everything. Had he not saved me, I might have drowned myself in resentment toward the whole world… and met my end.	”
–Yesterday’s Promise to Hokma

Yesterday’s Promise is one of ten acts in the Reception of the Reverberation Ensemble. It is received by the Floor of Religion.

Dialogue

Pluto

Combat Entrance "If you’re ready… I shall begin." "You had better not be fooled by a world shown at the hand of someone else." On Kill "You should not trust what your eyes see so easily." "Forgive me. I meant no malice." "I am fulfilling my obligations." "The goal seems to grow closer." Death "Deceived… yet again." Victory "I hope we will not bear ill feelings for each other over this."

Hokma

Combat Entrance "I am certain we will persevere if we try." Teammate Death "…We will have to keep faith until the end." "You may count on the remaining librarians to take care of the rest." "Don’t blame yourself, and rest easy." "It is ill-advised to be agitated. Be calm, and reclaim your breath." Death "…" Victory "We are all walking down a road on which we cannot turn back, I suppose."

Librarian 1

Combat Entrance "You’re right, Hokma, sir… Is there any way to handle this?" Teammate Death "Is everyone else okay?" "Don’t worry about me. I know what I’m capable of." "If we give up, that’s when it really ends…" Death "I want to say I’m not upset… but I know better…" Victory "I’m glad we could overcome this successfully."

Librarian 2

Combat Entrance "I don’t think we can take him on in an ordinary way…" Teammate Death "Have faith in myself… and move forward." "We should check ourselves from time to time." "The situation… I believe we can turn the tables anytime." Death "I’m sorry I couldn’t aid you further…" Victory "…It’s over for real this time, right?"

Librarian 3

Combat Entrance "We have to believe in that we can win…" Teammate Death "We’re almost there… Just a bit more…" "Why did you have to act so rashly…!" "I’m getting concerned… Think we can make it?" Death "What a… sly trick." Victory "That was close… What would’ve happened if we failed to stop him?"

Librarian 4

Combat Entrance "Impatience will hurt us… I’ll get ready." Teammate Death "We might want to concentrate more." "Showing… lies, huh." "He’s setting us up for a bad time… Watch out, everyone." Death "This won’t be good… at this rate…" Victory "I can’t be sure about how much of this I can trust."
