I know it's pretty common in these games to have dialogues that don't make any sense until later on, but here there's an unhealty amount of that. Furthermore, I'm not even sure everything is accounted for: the nature of the Sorcery Globe (whose real name is 'Quadratic Sphere', how clever...) and this Quadratic Key they mention (which is Rena's pendant) isn't really explained, except for their relation to the Energy Stone our heroes had found in the Huffman Ruins.
Claude, Rena and their companions finally come face to face with the cause of all the trouble Expel is facing: ten people hidden in the shadows, with weird-looking dresses, who literally lighten up when talking. But the more terrifying thing about them is that all their names are replaced by '?????'! Terrifying, isn't it? Kidding aside, you can tell they're a menace because one of them intimates the group to refrain from moving (with an all-caps voice, no less), and shoots Rena with his laser-eyes when she disobeys. Naturally Claude shields her from the laser (or something, maybe a particle ray), and Rena heals him after that.
Seeing Rena's healing powers, these men realize Rena is a Nedian (i.e. an inhabitant of the planet Nede; Only recently did I notice that it's Eden spelled backwards, shame on me), and take some time to reveal a bunch of stuff. Namely, they note Claude's an Earthling, someone else is a Tetragene (but nobody cares), and explain some stuff about the Sorcery Globe, or Quadratic Sphere (in the background), and its relation with Rena's pendant, a Quadratic Key. We'll take more time to analyze this in the next post.
