Owen, Sawyer.[A]
Elijah and I encountered two
armed men not far from here.[A]
They say that they know something
about our missing princess.[A]
[OpenFarRight]
Are they hostile?[A]
[OpenLeft]
No.[.....]
Not yet, at least.[A]
Regardless, it would be wise
to remain cautious.[A]
I don't want to waste time fighting
battles we don't need to.[A]
[OpenRight]
I'm not planning on hurting people
who know where Belle may be.[A]
I'm more than willing
to give them a chance.[A]
[OpenFarRight]
As am I.[.....]
And I suppose that is
them on the horizon?[A]

/* The script says to load in units here, but... */

[OpenLeft]
That they are.[A]
[OpenFarLeft]
They agreed to come with me.[A]
It's okay for us to
talk here, right?[A]
[OpenLeft]
I don't see why not.[A][X]

/* I think it makes more sense to load them here. */

Owen, Sawyer, this is
Kaetsu and Monta.[A]
[OpenLeft][ClearFace]
[OpenFarLeft][LoadFace][0x29][0x01]
[OpenLeft][LoadFace][0x25][0x01]
[OpenFarLeft]
[ToggleMouthMove]...[ToggleMouthMove][A]
[OpenFarRight]
Hail.[.....]
You are Kaetsu and Monta, I understand.[A]
[OpenLeft]
Yeah, I'm Monta.
My pal over there is Kaetsu.[A]
[OpenFarRight]
I won't keep you long.[A]
The four of us must return to
the road as quickly as possible.[A]
Have you any information on
Princess Belle's whereabouts?[A]
[OpenLeft]
I think so.[.....]
We heard some rumors about a group of
hired thugs searching for two women.[A]
I think that matches the current
story right now, doesn't it?[A]
[OpenFarRight]
Yes, but...[.....] you're sure that Belle
and Oona are the women in question?[A]
And where were they seen last?[A]
[OpenLeft]
Fortuita is as peaceful of a
place as places come,[A]
besides Arynden's attacks
and bandit problems.[A]
I'd think that it'd have
to be Princess Belle.[A]
[OpenRight]
Still, though...[A]
Doesn't it seem a little too
convenient, Owen?[A]
[OpenFarRight]
Every lead we've taken so far has
led us in the right direction.[A]
I'm not about to discount Monta's
solely on how vague it is.[A]
[OpenRight]
Tch...[A]
[OpenFarRight]
I'm willing to listen to you
and your friend, Monta.[A][0x02]
What would it take for you to
tell me the rest of the story?[A]
[OpenLeft]
Eh?[A]
[OpenFarRight]
I know you're not lying,[A]
but you have yet to tell me where they
were last seen, or where they're going.[A]
And I know you know.[A]
[OpenLeft]
Damn...[.....] They really don't kid about how
smart people are inside the city walls.[A][0x02]
Alright, you got me.[.....] There is
something I need your help with.[A]
[OpenFarRight]
Ask away.[A]
In these times, all Fortuitans
need to stick together.[A]
[OpenLeft]
A friend of ours has been running
with the wrong crowds lately.[A]
His name's Byakuren.[A]
He was forced into one of
the nearby bandit groups.[A]
Kaetsu and I need your help
getting him back safely.[A]
They should be inside the
ruined fort now.[A]
[OpenRight]
I think we're wasting
our time here, Owen.[A]
I don't see any bandits
in the fort.[A]
[OpenFarRight]
We'll help you, Monta.[A]
All we ask is that
you fight with us.[A]
[OpenLeft]
Of course we're fighting,
you dolt![A]
Kaetsu and I don't
leave friends behind.[A]
[OpenFarRight]
Speaking of...[A]
What do you have to
say about this, Kaetsu?[A]
[OpenFarLeft]
[ToggleMouthMove]...[.....][ToggleMouthMove][A]
[OpenLeft]
Oh.[.....] I suppose I forgot
to mention that.[A]
Kaetsu has a hearing defect,
but he can still understand us.[A]
He never learned how to
speak properly, is all.[A]
I'm his mouth.[A]
[OpenFarRight]
I'm not doing anything until
everyone is in agreement.[A][OpenLeft][ClearFace][OpenFarLeft][ClearFace]
[OpenFarRight]Eagle,[OpenLeft][LoadFace][0x2F][0x01][OpenFarRight] Elijah,[OpenFarLeft][LoadFace][0x27][0x01][OpenFarRight] Sawyer,[.....]
Are you with me?[A]
[OpenLeft]
Without a doubt.[A]
[OpenFarLeft]
Of course.[A]
[OpenRight]
[ToggleMouthMove]...[.....][ToggleMouthMove] 'Till the end, Owen.[A]
All I ask is you
watch your back.[A][X]


[OpenMidRight][LoadFace][0x8B][0x01]
[OpenMidRight]
Hey, kid![.....] I heard these ruins have
hidden treasures stowed away![A]
Get to finding them or I'll have
you dance with my blade![A]
[OpenMidRight][ClearFace]
[OpenMidLeft][LoadFace][0x20][0x01]

[ToggleMouthMove](I knew I should have
listened to Monta...)[ToggleMouthMove][A]

[OpenMidRight]
Eh?[.....] Stop mumbling or I'll make it
so it's all you can do![A][X]

[OpenMidLeft][LoadFace][0x20][0x01]
[OpenMidLeft]
Are we under attack?[A][CloseSpeechSlow]
Wait...[OpenMidLeft][MoveMidLeft][OpenMidLeft] that's Kaetsu and Monta![.....]
I'm saved![A][X]

Kaetsu![.....] Am I glad
to see you![A]
Who are these people?[A]
[OpenMidRight]
[ToggleMouthMove]...[ToggleMouthMove]Help.[A]
[OpenMidLeft]
I'm glad I can count
on you, pal![A]
Let's get outta here![A][X]

[OpenMidLeft][LoadFace][0x20][0x01]
[OpenMidRight][LoadFace][0x25][0x01]
[OpenMidRight]
Byakuren![A]
[OpenMidLeft]
Monta![.....]
You came![A]
[OpenMidRight]
Next time, listen when I say you're
up to your nose in muck![A][0x02]
Kaetsu's just behind me.[.....]
Let's get you out of here.[A]
[OpenMidLeft]
Believe me, pal, I'm
right behind you![A][X]

[OpenMidLeft][LoadFace][0x8B][0x01]
[OpenMidLeft]
This treasure is mine![A]
Back off or I'll take
your head off![A][X]

[OpenMidRight][LoadFace][0x20][0x01]
[OpenMidRight]
Sorry boss, but I'm
outta here.[A]
And I'm not letting you live
after all this nonsense.[A][ClearFace]
[OpenMidLeft][LoadFace][0x8B][0x01]
[OpenMidLeft]
I knew it would
come to this.[A][0x02]
Stand down or I'll
cut you in two![A][X]

[OpenRight]
I suppose you were right
about those bandits, Monta.[A]
I just never expected outlaws
and criminals to be so damn quiet.[A]
[OpenLeft]
Don't mention it.[A]
I deal with less trustworthy
people every day.[A]
[OpenFarRight]
I believe we've held up
our end of the bargain.[A]
I believe you owe us
an explanation.[A]
[OpenFarLeft]
[ToggleMouthMove].....[ToggleMouthMove]River.[A]
[OpenLeft]
What he said.[A]
Last I heard, they were
going to Rovina Village.[A]
You know, the one on the
Reisendtore river?[A]
The one near the Ezpatha
and Riviere borders?[A]
[OpenFarRight]
I've heard of that place.[A]
I can't imagine why they would
want to go there, though.[A]
[OpenLeft]
Rovina is a place that people go to
if they want to disappear.[A]
Outlaws and adventurers alike can all
find solace there outside the public eye.[A]
The Usurper King probably
doesn't even know about it.[A]
If anywhere is truly safe,
it will be there.[A]
[OpenFarRight]
That's...[.....]
That's simply genius.[A]
[OpenLeft]
Hey, us outside folk are good
for something at least![A]
And to sweeten the deal,
we'll come with you![A]
How's that sound?[A]
[OpenFarRight]
I thank you.[A]
With numbers like these, we'll be able
to take on far mor enemies than before.[A]
[OpenLeft]
Anything to bring the good
Princess Belle back![A][X]

/* Use MORETEXT. It still says to stuff 3 people here, but that looks like garbage. So I replaced Kaetsu with Byak. */

[OpenFarLeft][ClearFace][OpenFarLeft][LoadFace][0x20][0x01]
[OpenFarRight]
And this is the friend you were
speaking about earlier.[A]
Byakuren, was it not?[A]
[OpenFarLeft]
That's me, alright.[A]
Thanks again for your help
back there in those ruins.[A]
[OpenFarRight]
I'm just glad everyone is
safe so far.[A]
And together, we'll be
stronger than ever before.[A][X]
