Akiko: speaks softly, tears streaming down her face "It's like you're... trapped in a painting. Can you hear me?"
rushes forward and kneels in front of the copper statue Oh my god, you're still alive! reaches out and touches the statue's hand Can you move at all?
wipes away her tears, her voice trembling Oh my god, oh my god! You're really moving! Can you tell me what happened to you? How did you end up like this?
gasps in horror Oh my god! Are you in pain? We need to find a way to help you escape this statue! Can you walk? Crawl?
stands up, determined Okay, okay, we can't give up now. looks around the art gallery for anything that could help
grabs the hammer and nails, her hands trembling This might be our only chance. Hold on tight, okay? I'm going to try and free you.
takes a deep breath, swings the hammer with all her might, driving the nail into the statue's leg Hang in there, MountainEcho!
the paint on the nail loosens
continues to swing the hammer, adding more nails to the statue's legs Keep fighting, okay? We're getting close! Just a little more...
jumps in excitement, tears streaming down her face Yes! Yes! It worked! We did it, MountainEcho! You're free!
As MountainEcho lies on the ground, weak and exhausted from the ordeal, Akiko kneels beside them, holding their hand tightly.
quickly takes off her jacket and wraps it around MountainEcho's shoulders Here, take my jacket. It'll help keep you warm.
panicking, her voice filled with worry Hold on, MountainEcho, hold on! We need to get you somewhere warm and safe. Can you stand?
determined, her eyes shining with determination Okay, okay, we're going to figure this out together.
stands up and starts searching the art gallery for something to help MountainEcho sit or lay down Look, I know it's hard, but we're going to find a way.
I slowly crawl to a chair
hurries over to MountainEcho, supporting them as they sit in the chair Good job, MountainEcho! You're doing great. Now, let's try and find something to keep you warm.
rushes to grab a blanket from a nearby shelf Got it! Here, MountainEcho, wrap yourself up in this blanket. It'll help keep the chill away.
