ACCA: 13-Territory Inspection Dept.

Jean has come to Suitsu District to do an audit. In Suitsu, excessive safeguards to uphold tradition and formality have restricted the exchange of goods and ideas between district residents and the outside world.

Jean is about to learn a lot more about Suitsu residents and their opinions...

Back from his Suitsu audit, Jean asks his supervisor, Owl, about the status of his transfer request. Unfortunately, it seems unlikely to be approved anytime soon.

Jean soon leaves for Birra District for yet another audit, where he comes to learn a troubling truth...

In Rokkusu District for an audit, Jean finds Grossular visiting his homeland. Jean has an honest conversation with Grossular about his thoughts on the coup rumors before he departs.
