(Michael takes the note from Julieta and reads it over.)

-there seems to be writing on the other side of the note too-

-"Although- I hate to be unfair... so the correct mannequin has the answer to this riddle on the chest:"-

-"When you need me, you throw me away. But when you're done with me, you bring me back. What am I?"-

That, apparently, he's created an elaborate game involving explosive devices.

It says there's a note inside one of these mannequins that will supposedly give a clue to his location.

And that the other two are rigged with bombs that will go off as soon as the mannequins containing them are forced open.

...Lucky we came prepared, Sir. Our armours can pick out said bombs, right?

...Hmm. Excellent point made, Julieta.

Right, well, just in the case the worst happens...

(Michael actives his Thunderbolt Armour, and Julieta follows suit with her Reiter Armour.)

(And they start scanning for electrical signatures that could give away the bombs.)

(Process by elimination, naturally.)

-well that's kind of worrying, that the mannequin that Julietta revealed first was one of the ones with a bomb inside it-

-it turns out the middle one has the note, the other two had bombs-

(Michael carefully opens up the middle mannequin, and reaches inside for the second note.)

-the second note is grabbed-

-it reads:-

-"Did you believe me when I said I'd give you a clue as to where I am?"-

-"Well, thankfully for you. This is one of the sets that does give a clue. Not all of them do."-

-"However, this is the only set that tells you that not all the sets have clues to my location."-

-"But- without further ado... know that I am deep in these forests. And the land is marked, by a place where it is a fool's choice to not wear a suit."-

-"What kind of suit? Well. Maybe you'll have to find another clue. All this note has for you: Is that I am near that landmark."-

(sighs)

A landmark near a place where it's a good idea to wear a suit, eh?

He should have been more straightforward, Sir.

Mmhmm.

-his point probably isn't to be straightforward-

-after all... they're only clues. Not hints-

-after a short moment of time-

-a click is heard, and the other two mannequins start beeping rapidly-

Link is pushed back far, hitting the ground face first as the result of being in the middle of a turn.

-they're a safe distance away when the mannequins explode-

-behind a nearby tree another click is heard, and a voice is heard-

-it seems reminiscent of Raut's but... it has a windy and echo'd quality to it-

Ah- yes... I have been watching. A friend of mine's helping me. No electronics needed. I decided to help out with the clean-up, And- well. Life wouldn't be fun without a little danger, would it?

<I know you're in there. Please come out, I'm worried for your health, boy.>

I can't say that's a particularly smart thing to do, young lady.

"Sire, exactly what sort of ritual is this?"

"I'm summoning a powerful ally, Alciel. One that's served me dutifully until now. Since this place might be dangerous, it's a good precaution."

No, not here... Nor here. Maybe I’m just mistaken...
