FFBE Script part 31: Route to Dirnado
Previously...
Chapter 1, Part III: Kolobos Isle
KOLOBOS ISLE - ROUTE TO DIRNADO - GRANDPORT 2
(The three are in Grandport talking to a sailor.)
Rain: The ships aren't sailing?
Crewman: There've been leviathan sightings on the route to Dirnado. Sorry, sir, but no ships are sailing that way until we get the all clear.
(Rain, irritated, walks off with the others.)
Rain: I never even considered that we might not be able to find a ship to Dirnado...
Lasswell: It looks like it will be some time until this situation is resolved. We may need to consider other routes.
Rain(lightbulb): I know! There are airships, right? Maybe there's one going to Dirnado!
Lasswell: Impossible. Where would the money come from? We left home without much preparation, and our purses are growing light. If we were traveling for official business, we could demand passage. But we are not here on the king's orders.
Rain: No good, huh... Well then... we'll just... uh...
Merchant: Did I hear right? You folks want to get to Dirnado?
Fina: Yes. We have to get there, in fact! But the ships are all stuck in port...
Merchant: We're heading to Dirnado soon to sell some of our wares there. It's nothing like riding on that cushy ferry boat, but it'll float. If you'll pay your way, you can come along with us.
Rain(!): Really!?
Merchant: On one condition, though. We'll have to stop by Kolobos for a few days.
Lasswell: Kolobos? What do you need to do there?
Merchant: We use the route that goes around Kolobos to avoid the most dangerous patches of sea. And while we're there, we drop off some goods for some special customers. It's a win-win situation. What do you say? It's a fair detour, but it's still faster than waiting for the regular liner to start operating again.
Rain(...): We'll do it. We'll take your ship.
Fina: We have to hurry to the next crystal!
Lasswell: I don't see any other options...do you? We are out of choices.
Rain: Then we're decided!
(Rain and Fina follow the merchant off screen, leaving Lasswell standing there.)
Lasswell: But... wasn't Kolobos abandoned? Who are these "special customers" that the merchants go out of their way to service? It sounds off.
