Recently, I realized that the logistics work on the Colossus was going much smoother than it used to...
We weren't short of everyday consumables anymore, even though spending hadn't increased at all. And while my quarrelsome friends weren't battling each other with any less fervor than usual, damages to the facilities had plummeted! The number of lodged complaints were also significantly down. Just as I was pondering the reason behind all these changes, I saw Roy directing a group of Fireflies to address an equipment failure I hadn't even noticed. They were moving in orderly columns—I didn't even know you could make them do that!
I suddenly realized that the radical improvements were all thanks to Roy, who had been helping us with the logistics work on the Colossus. However, Roy spends most of his time traveling between Rediesel Wrench strongholds and can only visit the Colossus on rare occasions. I'm seriously considering working in the Rediesel Wrench's logistics unit for some time to learn from him. I asked Mr. Roy about it but he denied there was anything special about his management methods... %s, remember to tell me if he teaches you any of his tricks!

Good evening, %s. I'm here to pick up the kids. Sorry I'm late... Hmm? Exhausted from playing games? Asleep now? Not just Zeta, but Tiny One and Odi as well? Hahahaha, that's a first.
Thank you for looking after them. They really like staying here. I'm so glad you kids are having fun together... And I'm glad to see they were just joking when they said they'd pick your Colossus apart to study and take bits and pieces of it home as souvenirs...
What I was like when I was their age? Well, first off we didn't have these games back then. I guess our idea of fun was to beat ech other up. I was around Chainsaw Rick's age when I first met Azure. She shot a hole in my prosthesis and I broke two of her ribs. After that, she did nothing but cause trouble for me. I tried to please her by fixing the broken doll she got from her brother...
Anyways, these little buggers are sleeping so tight, they won't wake up any time soon. I wonder if they brushed their teeth...

Interested in my story? My past isn't all that interesting, I'm afraid... But I have many stories to tell about other members of the Rediesel Wrench. Who do you want to hear about first?
Sinsa? You've come to the right man. I actually taught him some of his moves. That year, we had a series of victories over other gangs in the desert. Oh, we were at our height back then. One day we were distributing loot on Tail Street when this arrogant little brat with wild red hair jumped on a table to challenge the Rediesel Wrench leader.
No no, I didn't even get to the good part yet. I told him he'd have to go through me to earn an audience. He kept flailing at me till sundown while I chatted with villagers who came to pick up their share of the loot. He was pretty beaten down for a while after, upset that he had worked so hard but still couldn't defeat some random paper pusher of the Rediesel Wrench. He even started crying, screaming that his goal was to become the strongest man in the desert and protect his baby sister. I thought it was funny how hard he started training because of it, so I never told him who I was. It wasn't until he officially joined the Rediesel Wrench that he found out that I was actually the second-in-command...

You're a persistent one aren't you, %s? Do you make everyone on the Colossus open up like this? As I mentioned briefly before, I was born in Umbraton and orphaned at a young age... Hmm? Did I say Lower Lumopolis last time? Ahahahah... Don't worry about the details.
Please don't get me wrong. I never lied to you about anything else! Dig near Firework Grass and you'll find water in the Rediesel Desert. Look out for Tentacle Eclipsites hiding in the ceiling when you explore caves. The vanilla tea I gave you really can improve your sleep. It doesn't do anything for me but everyone else likes it! All of that is true... Fine! Ask me one more question and I'll give you an honest answer.
Why did I join the Rediesel Wrench? Well, as they say, you only really get to know someone after you've fought them. I was severely injured after a fight against some Eclipsites. A person received my distress call and came to my rescue but I was delirious with pain and drew my dagger at him. I guess I deserved to die in the desert but the old leader brought me back to the camp, where I learned how free and casual life could be... After that? No way. I answered your question already.

Why are you so interested in an old man's past? You sure are a strange one. I could tell true adventure stories and desert fun facts all night, but all you want to hear is the story of an idiot whose life is full of regrets and dreams to become a hero. What a very boring choice.
Yes, I served two leaders of the Rediesel Wrench and together we made this place our home. People even named this desert after our group—the Rediesel Desert. Though I threw away my old name and military name tag a long time ago, I can still see the cold ceilings of Illumina's labs and hear the screams of my dying Secret Territory Expedition teammates when I close my eyes at night. I remember clearly how the headquarters ordered us to die with honor...
The night when the Rediesel Wrench was attacked by Eclipsites still haunts me in my sleep. That idiot took a deadly blow for me and told me that "It's all up to you now." It should have been me who died that night... And Eve... I know all too well how terrible some of those Illumina scientists are, but... And... Sigh! Azure... Hey, give it back! I barely got started. No, I'm not drunk...
