Dialogue[]

Piper: Should you be more energized the more Nitro-Fuel you drink? I just don't get how you can slump over Steeltusk like that...
Piper: I don't have the muscles to move you.... Wake up...
Piper: Ah... No... Completely out, stone cold...
Piper: Proxy, have you seen Lighter?
SiblingSibling: Nope, what's up?

The Unsung Champion (II) (1)Settlement Days

Video Summary: The morning after the celebration, surprises are always the wake-up call for a groggy mind.

Story Description: Upon reaching Blazewood, Lighter explains the story behind "Settlement Days" and jokingly suggests a Nitro-Fuel drinking challenge to settle the grudge from accidentally stepping on Eous' foot.

Piper: I was gonna ask Lighter to grab today's raffle ticket for me, but I couldn't find him anywhere this mornin'.
Piper: I thought you were out partying all night... *yawn* Didn't expect you to be up so early, Proxy.
SiblingSibling: Do you think Lighter's in trouble? It is Settlement Days, after all...
Piper: Nah, don't worry about it. Lighter goes off by himself all the time. Nobody really knows what he's up to.
Piper: Big Daddy never said anything about it, so I'm sure he's not gettin' into any trouble.
Piper: Maybe he'll be back in the afternoon. Well, lil 'o me needs to go catch some ZZZs. If you see Lighter, tell him to drag away those guys who passed out by Steeltusk, will ya?

Piper walks off.

SiblingSibling: (‍WiseWise/BelleBelle‍), you said that Lighter was looking into Andreas yesterday... and he mentioned the Hollow, right?
SiblingSibling: Should we go check it out? Just to be safe?
The Unsung Champion (II) (2) Okay!
(ProtagonistProtagonist): I know Lighter isn't the reckless type, but he really looked out for me yesterday, so I can't just leave him alone. (‍I'llI'll/Let'sLet's‍) check inside the Hollow and look for him!

The Unsung Champion (II) (3)Going Solo

Video Summary: If someone acts alone, they are either a fool or have a reason...

Story Description: You find Lighter in the Hollow, and he reveals that while patrolling, he uncovered Calydon's former foes were plotting an assault. He believes the situation is critical and asks you to help resolve the crisis by finding their old enemy.

After entering the Hollow, you quickly find Lighter's location using Fairy's scan.

You meet up with Lighter and explain why you came looking for him...

Lighter: Ah... sorry for worrying you, Proxy. I usually handle these things solo. No one really knows or cares, except for Big Daddy...
Lighter: Last night, I did some digging and found out that Andreas was probably goaded on by an old rival gang. That's why he showed up during Settlement Days, looking for trouble.
Lighter: Earlier today, I spotted some shady new faces around Blazewood. I figured they're probably connected to Andreas and our old rivals, so I followed them into the Hollow.
The Unsung Champion (II) (4) What happened?
(ProtagonistProtagonist): What happened?
Lighter: Simply put, they're trying to use Settlement Days under Caesar's supervision as a chance to settle their beef and bring down the Sons of Calydon.
Lighter: They're setting up an ambush around Blazewood. They plan to strike tomorrow and start a full-blown fight.
Lighter: As you know, the town is now packed with regular people and other gangs. If the Sons of Calydon can't handle this right, people will lose their trust in us.
Lighter: I was hoping to figure out their route and take care of them before they could do anything, but they went poof and vanished.
The Unsung Champion (II) (5) It's too dangerous!
(ProtagonistProtagonist): (‍It's too risky for you to handle this all by yourself, Lighter.It's too risky for you to handle this all by yourself, Lighter./It's too dangerous for you to do this alone, Lighter!It's too dangerous for you to do this alone, Lighter!‍)
Lighter: Ah... but during Settlement Days, everyone's got their own roles to play...
Lighter: Honestly, I didn't want to drag you into these Outer Ring disputes, Proxy... but I'm glad you're here, or I would be stuck with no clues.
The Unsung Champion (II) (6) Running off solo to play the hero is a bad idea!
(ProtagonistProtagonist): (‍Next time you're thinking of doing something that bold, hit me up, I'll help.Next time you're thinking of doing something that bold, hit me up, I'll help./Running off solo to play the hero is a bad idea!Running off solo to play the hero is a bad idea!‍)
Lighter: Well, could I ask the esteemed Phaethon to lead the way now?
The Unsung Champion (II) (7) You got it!
The Unsung Champion (II) (8) You bet!
(ProtagonistProtagonist): (‍You bet. That's what I'm best at.You bet. That's what I'm best at./You got it! Leave it to me!You got it! Leave it to me!‍)

The Unsung Champion (II) (9)No Honor Among Troublemakers

Video Summary: Old grudges and new resentments are all misunderstandings, all parts of a conspiracy.

Story Description: Andreas and the old enemy faction clash behind the barrier. Andreas disapproves of the gang's radical methods that dragged the Outer Ring civilians into the conflict, but the gang members don't care.

Andreas: You! You went back on your word! That's not how things work in the Outer Ring! Pompey would never stand for this!
Reckless Old Rival Henchman: We said from the start we'd teach the Sons of Calydon a lesson, and you were all in for it.
Andreas: But you never said anything about putting the regular folks and other gangs in danger!
Reckless Old Rival Henchman: Hahahaha! You're just like the former Overlord... that sentimental old loser. He got backstabbed by his right hand! What a fool.
Andreas: Backstabbed by his right hand...? But didn't you say it was the Sons of Calydon that were behind it?
Reckless Old Rival Henchman: Oh? Did I say that? When you asked about Pompey's death, all I said was, "Why don't you ask the Sons of Calydon instead?"
Andreas: You! You're all...!
Cocky Old Rival Henchman: Hahaha! Go on, keep shouting! Soon, you'll reunite with that good-for-nothing old boss of yours...!
Reckless Old Rival Henchman: This is the Outer Ring, where the strong reign and the weak fall.

The Unsung Champion (II) (10)Don't Bet Too Easily

Video Summary: The rule of the Settlement Days is that all grudges will be wiped out with a fight.

Story Description: After the old enemy gang members escapes under cover of a smoke bomb, Lighter, eager to learn the details of the enemy's ambush plan from Andreas, voluntarily initiates a challenge.

Cocky Old Rival Henchman: Gaaahhhh...! Huh? My head's still on! I'm still alive!
Lighter: By Settlement Days rules, you face your challenges head-on, not sneaking around and stabbing people in the back.
Cocky Old Rival Henchman: Heh, screw your rules or whatever!
Reckless Old Rival Henchman: Tomorrow, those losers in Blazewood and the Sons of Calydon will meet their end!

The rival minions back off and throw smoke bombs, disappearing into the haze...

Lighter: No need to chase them, Proxy. Nailing a few minions won't change much. Their main force is not around here.
Lighter: If only we knew which direction they'd be coming from tomorrow...
Andreas: Hmph, even if you did, what difference would it make?
Andreas: The Sons of Calydon will be out in full force tomorrow. With all the gangs around, some of them might try to pull something. Who knows?
Andreas: The Outer Ring plays by its own rules. It's all survival of the fittest, and backstabbers are a dime a dozen... Even Pompey didn't make it, and neither will your new Overlord.
Lighter: So, you know their plan?
Andreas: Did you hear anything I just said? If I hadn't misunderstood you guys, I wouldn't even bother explaining all this...
Lighter: I challenge you.
Andreas: Huh? You can just punch me if you're pissed. Now that I know you're not tied to Pompey's death, I'm not interested in wasting my time on you guys.
Lighter: If you lose, you tell us everything you know. If you win, I'll tell you the last words of the late Overlord.
Andreas: You... You know Pompey's last words?
Lighter: Mhm. So, will you accept my challenge?

The Unsung Champion (II) (11)Settlement, Settlement

Video Summary: The rule of the Settlement Days is that all grudges will be wiped out with a fight.

Story Description: Lighter wins, and learns of the enemy's ambush plan from Andreas, who also came to respect Lighter, and the two bump fists in reconciliation.

After losing to Lighter, Andreas follows the rules and spills everything he knows.

Then, with a mix of relief and self-deprecation, he speaks up...

Andreas: Man, it's hard not to envy you... You're so young, but you've already reached the top so easily.
Andreas: Winning effortlessly with style and being the one everyone looks up to...
Andreas: I gotta admit, you're a better fit for the Outer Ring than I ever was...
Lighter: Hmm... let me ask you something: What would you do if you found out someone was plotting against Cinder Lake, and you had no backup?
Andreas: What kind of question is that? Of course, I'd defend Cinder Lake with my life! No second thoughts about it.
Lighter: Hah...
Andreas: What's so funny? This isn't just talk! Cinder Lake is the pride of the Outer Ring! I'd risk everything to protect it.

Almost instinctively, Andreas touches his chest, his hand over the brooch from the late Overlord, a token he kept close beneath his armor.

You must protect... Cinder Lake...

Lighter: Nothing. I'm not doubting you... Pompey would be glad to hear your steadfast response.
Andreas: Huh? What do you mean?
Lighter: It's not about who's a better fit for the Outer Ring. You've been here longer than I have, and your ties to this land are deeper than mine.
Lighter: I might have the upper hand in a spar now, but who knows who'll win next time? It's anyone's game.
Lighter: I'm always down for a rematch, but on one condition...
Lighter: If you're not prepared to put your life on the line, don't bet something you see as your highest honor so easily.

Andreas fist-bumps Lighter, with a mix of frustration, respect, and admiration. After this, their grudge is finally settled.

The Unsung Champion (II) (12)The Only Witness

Video Summary: Proxy leads the way forward, but must also guide back home.

Story Description: Lighter plans to settle the score with his old enemy alone tomorrow, saying taking care of this "dirty work" is part of the promise he made to Big Daddy when becoming a Red Scarf.

Lighter: Thanks for today, Proxy. Lucky you were there to guide me, otherwise I wouldn't have learned about their plan.
The Unsung Champion (II) (13) About tomorrow...
(ProtagonistProtagonist): Are you (‍goinggoing/planningplanning‍) to handle this on your own tomorrow, Lighter?
Lighter: Well, like those guys said, if the Sons of Calydon go all out on the last day of Settlement Days, it'll look like the new Overlord doesn't really command respect from the other gangs.
Lighter: And the folks in Blazewood might worry that Sons of Calydon's old enemies will keep coming back to cause trouble.
Lighter: So, I think it's best if I handle this on my own.
Lighter: Besides, when Big Daddy pulled me out of the underground fights, we agreed I'd deal with any old grudges and enemies from Calydon's past.
The Unsung Champion (II) (14) Old enemies of Calydon...
(ProtagonistProtagonist): Dealing with old enemies... I didn't know you had to do all that.
Lighter: The Sons of Calydon are still growing, and a lot of gangs in the Outer Ring are eying this new faction full of Calydon's legacy.
Lighter: Big Daddy wants Caesar to be a fair leader and not to follow in her father's footsteps. So, there are some things only I can handle.
The Unsung Champion (II) (15) Are you doing this to pay back Big Daddy's favor, Lighter?
The Unsung Champion (II) (16) No one knows about all the stuff you're doing...
(ProtagonistProtagonist): Are you doing this for the Sons of Calydon to pay back Big Daddy?
(ProtagonistProtagonist): No one in the Sons of Calydon knows what you're doing for them...
Lighter: You're making it sound way too serious, Proxy. I'm getting paid, so I've got to do a good job, right?
The Unsung Champion (II) (17) I'll lead the way tomorrow.
(ProtagonistProtagonist): Well, at least let me guide you through the Hollow tomorrow.
(ProtagonistProtagonist): Don't be so quick to turn down my offer. After all, I'm a Proxy and it's my job to ensure my clients get back safely.
(ProtagonistProtagonist): Besides... I can't afford to lose a key client like the Sons of Calydon.
Lighter: Looks like I'll have to bring my A-game tomorrow. Can't let the Red Scarf of the Sons of Calydon embarrass himself in front of you.
Lighter: See you tomorrow, Proxy.
