Chapter 1
Mysterious Labyrinthia
???:
............ ...Luke... Wake up, my boy.
Luke:
Uh, umm... Eh? Professor?
Layton:
Good. I'm glad to see you're awake.
Luke:
Ugh...yeah. Glad to be back...
Layton:
Are you feeling all right?
Luke:
Um, yeah, I'm fine. A bit drowsy though... I guess I just fell asleep all of a sudden. ............Ah! Wait, now I remember! Professor, what happened with the witches?! And...where exactly are we?!
Layton:
Well, Luke, I've only just woken up myself. We've been here in this horse-drawn wagon since I awoke.
Luke:
H-how did we end up asleep in a wagon?!
Layton:
That is something we must now find out. First of all, where are we? And secondly, where are we being taken? There's another passenger over there. Let's start by asking her.
Luke:
Good thinking, Professor!

Layton:
Excuse me, but I wonder if you could tell us where this wagon is heading?
???:
Where it's heading? ...That really is a meaningless question. It goes without saying, since there's only one place we could possibly be heading.
Layton:
...I'm not sure I entirely follow.
Luke:
Um... What do you mean by "one place"?
???:
............ If you really want to know, why don't you ask the wagon driver? Although, whether you ask or not, we'll be arriving at our destination soon anyway.
Luke:
If that's the case, surely it wouldn't hurt to just tell us...
Layton:
Luke... Let's take her advice. We may have better luck with the driver.
Luke:
All right...if you say so.

Luke:
Vegetables. They're all quite big and tasty looking.
Layton:
Perhaps it is a vegetable cart? No, I don't think it is.
Luke:
We're not in London any more, are we...?
|
| Wagon seat on right
|
|
|
Luke:
It looks pretty drab. If this is a sightseeing tour wagon, the tickets had better be cheap.
Layton:
It is not the most comfortable, either.
Luke:
There's one more passenger, so I think it's not a freight wagon, at least.
|
|
Wagon Driver:
Hee-hee, so you finally woke up, did you? I was wondering what to do with you both... I was starting to think you'd never wake up.
Luke:
E-excuse me, but...where is it that we're going?
Wagon Driver:
Me-oh-my! You didn't get into this wagon without knowing where it's headed, did you?
Layton:
Well, in truth, we only just became aware that we were in here. Until just a moment ago, we were at Tower Bridge, in London. I'm afraid we have no recollection of having boarded this wagon.
Wagon Driver:
Hee-hee, you certainly say the strangest things. You're both still half asleep, aren't you?
Luke:
Half asleep...? Of course not!
Wagon Driver:
As far as I remember, you've both been in this wagon from the very start.
Luke:
There's no way that's right! And besides...
Wagon Driver:
Now, now, don't get so worked up, sonny. You'll upset the other passengers. I know nothing about the two of you, except from what I've seen. My job is just to carry my passengers... ...to that town.
Layton:
A town, you say...?
Wagon Driver:
Well looky here, it's just come into sight! Why not take a peek out, hmm?
Layton:
............
Knight:
Captain! All present and accounted for, sir!
Captain:
Ahem! I want you to keep it in mind, men, that the peace of this town is in your hands. Never forget that no matter what happens, the people look to you to keep the peace! We proud knights of the order will always protect the people!
Knight:
Yes, sir! For honour and glory!
Cecil & Petal (Cecil):
Captain, Captain!
Captain:
Hmm...? What can I do for you, my little ones?
Cecil & Petal (Cecil):
I want to join the order of knights and patrol the streets like you!
Captain:
Ha ha! That's an upstanding ambition, lad. Perhaps, when you're a little bigger...
Cecil & Petal (Cecil):
Yes, sir! I'll do my very best to grow up as soon as I can, sir!
Captain:
Hmm. I like your spirit, young man! Be seeing you.
Cecil & Petal (Petal):
Oh, you look so pleased with yourself! You don't really think a weakling like you could join the order of knights, do you?
Cecil & Petal (Cecil):
Hey, that's not a nice thing to say. Every boy wants to be a knight...
Bardly:
Oh, what can he do, For one sweet as you? This bardly bard called Bardly♪
Muffet:
Could you sing me a wittle song? Something womantic, to melt my heart?
Bardly:
Oh, fair maiden, the pleasure is mine. A worthy song, for a love such as thine♪ Oh, the love in your heart, And the love in your head, Is full and warm, like freshly baked bread♪
Muffet:
...Sweeeeet!
Luke:
P-Professor! Look at those people over there! They're all wearing period costumes. I've never seen that in London!
Layton:
Hmm...you're right, Luke. This town would appear to resemble the one we saw pictured in that book... Although I'm somewhat puzzled as to how we have ended up here...
???:
There is nothing strange about any of this...
Layton:
............!
Luke:
Ah! You're the passenger from the wagon.
???:
The fact that we are here now is a predetermined turn of events.
Luke:
Wh-what do you mean?! We were just brought here from outside...
???:
This "outside" of which you speak... Just what exactly are you referring to?
Luke:
Huh? Well, I mean London, of course...
???:
There is no such place. Nor is there any such thing as an "outside". Not here...not in Labyrinthia...
Layton:
............! Labyrinthia...
Luke:
Wh-what?! You mean this is really Labyrinthia? Even so, that doesn't mean that London doesn't exist! If we went back the way we came, we'd be bound to come across it eventually!
???:
If you don't believe me, then why don't you take a look with your own eyes?
Luke:
Ahh?! Professor! The gate is gone!
Layton:
............?!
Luke:
The gate we came through was right behind us, wasn't it?
Layton:
Hmm...yes, it certainly was there.
Luke:
So if that's the case, why does no one around here seem surprised? Seeing such a big gate disappear like that... H-hey...where did she go?
Layton:
This is most perplexing...
Luke:
What's going on here...?
Layton:
If this really is Labyrinthia, then... Could it be that we have somehow ended up inside that book...?
Luke:
You mean the book Espella was showing us, don't you? The Historia Labyrinthia...
Layton:
That's right, Luke. Do you recall what happened to us at Tower Bridge?
Luke:
Well, I remember when that book started glowing. But after that, I'm totally blank...
Layton:
............
Luke:
Professor...you don't think we've somehow been pulled inside that book, do you?
Layton:
It's a bit early to be drawing conclusions just yet, my boy. There are quite a few people around here. Let's start off by asking a few questions.
Main Street

| Captain

Captain:
You've finished patrolling this area, then?
Knight:
Yes, sir! Nothing to report at present, sir!
Captain:
Hmm, we must be even more on our guard than usual today.
Knight:
Yes, sir! Oh, by the way, Captain...
Captain:
Yes?
Knight:
I don't mean to alarm you, but there appears to be a couple of unusual characters approaching our vicinity, sir!
Captain:
What?! Oi there, you two! What business do you have with the order of knights?
Luke:
Oh, er...well, um...we just wanted to ask a few questions about the area... Um, about the order of knights... Are you really...real knights?
Captain:
What's that?! You're not poking fun at the order of knights, are you?!
Layton:
That was certainly not our intention. We were merely noting that your appearance is somewhat unusual...
Captain:
You're saying we're unusual, are you? Well, that's an unusual thing to say... We usually patrol Labyrinthia, doing our usual duty of keeping the usual order. Tell me, what's unusual about that? If anyone's unusual here, it's you two! And I find it quite unusual that I've never seen either of you characters before. Which part of the town are you from?
Luke:
We, um...just came here in the back of a wagon, through the gate over there. But then we noticed the gate has vanished. You didn't see anything, did you?
Captain:
Gate? What gate?
Layton:
............
Luke:
But, there was a gate... We just came through it, from outside...
Captain:
...Outside? Now I've been patient with you two, but nothing you're saying makes a lick of sense.
Layton:
My apologies. I'm afraid it has been a while since we've been here on the main street. And I seem to remember there having been a gate of some sort around here...
Luke:
But, Professor...
Layton:
Luke, I think it would be prudent to play along here.
Captain:
There's definitely something fishy about you two...
Knight:
Captain, I don't suppose these two are...
Captain:
No, I doubt that. Although they do look and act strangely...
Knight:
Maybe, we could test them to see if they really do live here?
Captain:
A test... Yes, that might be a good idea. I know a good way of deciding whether you two are dubious characters or not.
Luke:
Wh-what are you going to do?
Captain:
Well, it's very simple. If you really are upstanding members of this community, then you'll be able to solve this.
Luke:
Solve? Solve what...?
Layton:
Hmm. Luke, it appears this town has puzzles similar to those of our own world.
Captain:
What are you mumbling about? Are you ready? Then here we go!

Captain:
Mmm...truly impressive puzzle solving! Of course, any member of our community could solve it... But those who can solve it with this level of insight are few and far between. You are no longer under suspicion. Although I must advise you to speak and act with more caution henceforth. Today being a special day, we are on an even higher level of alert than usual.
Luke:
It seemed a bit touch and go for a moment, but I think we've convinced him.
Layton:
Not only that, but it seems that puzzles are a familiar concept here. Which means that if we run into trouble, we should be able to overcome it through our usual puzzle-solving approach.
Luke:
That's good to know! That puzzle was a bit different to what we are used to, though...
Layton:
It seemed to be a puzzle rather unique to this town. And all the more worth solving for it, wouldn't you say, Luke?
Luke:
Too right, Professor! So what's our next step...?
Layton:
Well, my boy, first and foremost... I suggest we take a look around and investigate this town of Labyrinthia.
Luke:
All right, let's do that! But where should we start...? We know next to nothing about this town...
Layton:
That's true, Luke. Although, if you recall, we do know somebody who has been here before us.
Luke:
Ah! You mean Carmine, right?!
Layton:
Precisely. It appears that Carmine was able to leave this town and return to London. However, it would also appear that he was unaware of how me managed to do so...
Luke:
So you mean, Carmine's activities here may be our only clue to getting back?
Layton:
I'm afraid so, Luke. First things first, let's see if we can find any signs of his presence here.
Luke:
Right you are, Professor! Let's start investigating!
...Hmm... ...Enjoy yourselves while you can... ...for you will no doubt soon realise... ...the role you have been chosen to play...

Cecil & Petal (Petal):
I haven't seen you two around here before! Do you know where you're standing?
Luke:
Well, I might be wrong...but I think we're in Labyrinthia...
Cecil & Petal (Petal):
That's not what I mean! You tell 'em, Cecil.
Cecil & Petal (Cecil):
Me? Uh, well... It's just that this is OUR territory, you see?
Luke:
Your territory...?
Cecil & Petal (Petal):
That's right. You two just went and walked right into our territory.
Luke:
Oh, I get it. You mean we walked into the area you always play in, right? Sorry, we didn't realise... Do you mind if we join you here for a while?
Cecil & Petal (Petal):
You heard 'em... Whaddya think?
Cecil & Petal (Cecil):
I guess it'd be all right. The more the merrier, I say.
Cecil & Petal (Petal):
Fine, here's what we'll do. If you can solve this puzzle, then you can stick around.
Cecil & Petal (Cecil):
It's out initiation test!

Cecil & Petal (Petal):
Hey, you're pretty good.
Luke:
That was a piece of cake. After all, solving puzzles is my speciality!
Cecil & Petal (Petal):
Yeah, me too. It'd only take me ten seconds to solve a puzzle like that.
Cecil & Petal (Cecil):
Really? I didn't know you solved puzzles.
Cecil & Petal (Petal):
You...just keep out of this! Nobody asked you! Anyway, you're now an official member as promised. From now on, you're number two.
Luke:
Number two?
Cecil & Petal (Cecil):
Yep! I'm number one!
Cecil & Petal (Petal):
You should feel proud. As number two, you can walk around the town freely. Not only that, but I'll let you in on a secret. If you check those green flags over there, you'll find something I hid there.
Luke:
Um, okay, thanks! Somehow...I get the feeling that even if I hadn't become number two, I could have walked around the town freely...

Cecil & Petal (Petal):
Hey, number two! There's something else you should know.
Luke:
What's that?
Cecil & Petal (Petal):
I've hidden treasure in some other places all over our territory. For example, that flag over there. Try examining it and see what you find. You'll find something amazing that I hid! There's treasure hidden in a whole lot of other places, too.
Cecil & Petal (Cecil):
Just help yourself to whatever you find!
Cecil & Petal (Petal):
As the boss, it's my duty to take care of my number two!
Luke:
Thanks! I'll be sure to search all around for the treasure you've hidden.

Layton:
She seems to have headed north.
Luke:
She said North Parade Avenue, didn't she? Do you think some sort of event will be taking place there?
Layton:
I can't say for certain...but wherever you look, the townspeople certainly do seem excited about something. It could be that some kind of special social event is being held today.

Sounds exciting! Let's hurry up and see what's going on!

Oh, what have we here? A man and a lad! Like two lost sheep, It makes me so sad...♪
Luke:
Wow, are you singing for us?
Layton:
Ah, how fascinating! This man is clearly a minstrel.
Luke:
Minstrel? There were around in the Middle Ages, weren't they?
Layton:
Indeed. In the Middle Ages, minstrels were a kind of professional musician or poet. Although I do find it a little embarrassing to be referred to as a "lost sheep"...
Luke:
Well, at least it's better than being called a little lost lamb, right, Professor?
Bardly:
Little lost lambs, please have no fear! The bard, your shepherd, Is standing right here♪ Labyrinthine town, so your ways be known, I shall give the lambs a map, Of their very own♪
Layton:
You're right, Luke...I did prefer sheep. But it is most kind of this gentleman to provide us with a map of the town.
Bardly:
It is my pleasure, it is my delight! I am only doing, what is right♪
Luke:
Thank you, minstrel! This map will come in handy.
Bardly:
The sheep are happy, the bard is pleased, But sadly that map, is a bit of a tease...♪
Luke:
Huh? What do you mean?
Bardly:
Actually...the map I just gave you...is all in pieces...
