This year's Festival of the Hunt was sooo exciting! Kupo! The highest score was ___ points! A kid named Vivi won the title!

Water room
Freya goes to an injured Burmecian.
Freya: Are you alright?
Burmecian Soldier: Freya... Please be careful...
Burmecian Soldier: Master Gizamaluke has gone mad. He's being controlled by some strange clowns.
An extremely large thing plunges into the water. The party looks around to investigate.
Battle: Gizamaluke
Freya: What happened to Master Gizamaluke...?
Freya: We must hurry! His Majesty is in danger!
Grand Citadel: South Gate
Steiner enters, carrying a bag.
Steiner: (Once we cross this gate, we are in Alexandrian territory!)
* Try to leave
Steiner: (I must act natural!)
* Guards
Short Guard: Hold it right there.
Tall Guard: What's the purpose of your visit?
Steiner: I heard workers were needed to fix South Gate.
Steiner: I brought my belongings so that I might live and work here.
Tall Guard: That's great!
Tall Guard: They've been working on the gate non-stop since the accident, but it's still broken.
Short Guard: I need to check your bag. Rules and regulations, you know.
(Steiner): ......
He puts the bag down.
Short Guard: Would you step back?
He does.
Tall Guard: There, that's good. Sorry, just doing our job.
The Short Guard inspects the bag.
Tall Guard: So... Where are you from?
Steiner: (Blast, I must do something!)
Tall Guard: The police are searching for a girl and a middle-aged man. Did you see a pair like that on your way here?
(Short Guard): This knot is really tight...
Tall Guard: The girl supposedly looks exactly like Princess Garnet, the most beautiful princess ever to grace Alexandria Castle.
(Short Guard): I got it now.
Tall Guard: But you know how Queen Brahne looks. It's hard to believe that she'd have such a beautiful daughter.
(Short Guard): Ungh!?
(Short Guard): WHAT IS THIS!?
Short Guard: Wh-What is that!? What are those...those...
Short Guard: ...rotten things! Are they poison!?
Steiner: Rotten? I'm not carrying anything that's rotting...
Tall Guard: Oh, it's your least favorite food...
Tall Guard: ...the Lindblum delicacy, gysahl pickles.
Tall Guard: I can't believe how many you brought with you!
Steiner: They are my favorite! I cannot start my day without them.
Tall Guard: Yeah, sure. People who like 'em all say that. You can go now.
Steiner: Thank you.
He picks up the bag.
Steiner: Good day.
He goes through the gate.
South Gate
- Multina Racket: Far left chest.
Steiner: (We're inside the gate! Princess, you've done it again.)
Steiner: (I must find a spot where I won't be seen...)
Steiner: (That alley looks acceptable.)
Steiner: (But a girl and a man are in the way.)
* Try to leave
Steiner: (I must act natural!)
* Ladder
Steiner: I cannot climb like this.
* Alley
Steiner: (I must get rid of them before I go into the alley.)
* Jobless Jeff: Sigh... I declared bankruptcy and sold my shop.
Jobless Jeff: It was called Altair. We sold magic items. It's just a regular shop now.
* Jobless Jeff: I should've taken all my magic items with me when I gave it up.
* Carpenter Hans: Things are strange around here. There are rumors of ghosts... How did South Gate get destroyed, anyway?
* Carpenter Hans: And it is true that the castle welcomed the old airship even after it caused that accident?
* Carpenter Hans: I wonder what's really going on...
* Earnest Young Man: Let's see... I need two of model #3...
Earnest Young Man: Oh, you brought your things with you. Are you here to work?
* Answer
* Remain silent
The bag kicks him.
Steiner: I-Indeed.
Earnest Young Man: Welcome! I'm also new here. I've been working here for five months as the chief engineer of Bohden Gate.
Earnest Young Man: But he's the only one working under me.
He indicates the Worker.
Chief Engineer: I'll be going back to the castle next month, when my contract expires.
Chief Engineer: I'll be joining a team of engineers who are developing a new engine that runs without Mist.
Chief Engineer: The world outside the Mist Continent is uncharted territory, but there's no need to worry about our safety if we can explore it on an airship.
Chief Engineer: Regent Cid is an advocate of technological advancement.
Chief Engineer: Oh, sorry. I've talked your ear off.
* Chief Engineer: Sure, I'd like to leave, but I intend to work hard while I'm here!
* Worker: This gate breaks down a lot, 'cause the hinges don't fit very well.
Worker: This road leads to the bottom of the Mist. No one uses it! There's no need to fix it, really.
Worker: So, I just polish up the gate and make it look all nice. That takes care of it for a couple months.
(Worker): Hee hee.
Steiner: (You were the reason we couldn't come in through this gate!)
* Kill!
Kick.
Steiner: (I almost lost control of myself!)
* Don't kill
Steiner: (I must tolerate him for the sake of the princess!)
* (Worker): Rub-rub! Rubba-dub!
* Part-time Worker Mary: I can't believe he went out of business...
She indicates Jobless Jeff.
Part-time Worker Mary: I didn't know, because I was on the other side of the mountain.
* Console her
Steiner: What good is it to bemoan what has already happened?
Kick.
Steiner: Wh-What I meant to say was that... Now that we are here, there must be things we can do to help the ones we love.
Part-time Worker Mary: You're right. I gotta encourage him.
She leaves.
(Part-time Worker Mary): Thanks!
* (Man still there)
Steiner: (That just leaves the young man over there.)
* (Otherwise)
Steiner: (The coast is clear.)
* Don't console her
Kick.
* Jobless Jeff: Who is this girl?
* Jobless Jeff: I want to be left alone...
* Part-time Worker Mary: This is my first time talking to him! I wish I'd done it sooner.
* Part-time Worker Mary: ...I really liked your store. It had a nice atmosphere, a lot of sunlight, and a nice sign. But what made the store really special for me was...
Part-time Worker Mary: The real reason why I always went to your store was...
* Chief Engineer
The conversation goes as normal.
Steiner: There's something I must tell you.
Chief Engineer: ...The gate to the bottom of the Mist has been left broken!?
Chief Engineer: Did he think he could get away with that!?
Chief Engineer: Excuse me!
He leaves.
* (Woman still there)
Steiner: (Now I just need to get rid of that girl...)
* (Otherwise)
Steiner: (The coast is clear.)
* Chief Engineer: I know I'm young and inexperienced, but I'm eager to learn!
* (Worker): Scrubba-dub! Scrubba-dub-dub!
* Alley
The Short Guard enters.
Short Guard: Hey, hold on!
Short Guard: Rules and regulations, you know. Would you come over here?
* Alley
Short Guard: Come over here.
* Approach Short Guard
Short Guard: Stop right there!
Short Guard: Don't make a move until I tell you!
Short Guard: Now, turn toward me slowly... Don't make a false move.
(Short Guard): Phew...
Short Guard: You need a Gate Pass to reach the South Gate summit.
Short Guard: I'm leaving it right here. Pick it up after I leave.
Short Guard: I'd come closer, but you're carrying those stinky pickles! See? I'm leaving it right here!
He leaves. Steiner picks it up.
<Gate Pass>
Alleyway
Steiner dumps the bag, and goes on the lookout.
(Steiner): Ahem...
(Steiner): 'Tis foolishness! If all were so easy, why, none would suffer in this world!'
Dagger: Steiner...? Is it okay for me to come out?
(Steiner): Yes!
Dagger: Thank you. I will come out now. Please keep an eye out.
(Steiner): Yes!
He does so.
<Rustle rustle...>
<Rustle rustle...>
Dagger's head appears.
Dagger: Oh, finally! Some fresh air!
Dagger: What a horrible smell... It gave me a terrible headache.
Dagger: (Maybe I'll get changed while he's on lookout.)
She disappears.
Steiner: Let's see...
* Continue looking
(Steiner): Uh-huh...
* Go over to the other side
He does.
Dagger: (Ahh!)
Dagger: (Don't look this way...)
She reappears, steps out, and stretches.
Dagger: You can turn around now, Steiner.
Steiner: Princess...!
(Dagger) (angrily): Steiner!
Steiner: Yes...? Oh, um, yes, Miss Dagger.
Dagger: You have to call me Dagger until we reach Treno. Don't salute me, either.
Steiner: Yes, until we reach Treno and find a way back to the castle, I will be careful.
Dagger: Okay, let's go!
Station
- Potion: Chest.
(Dagger): Wow...!
Dagger: That cable car will take us to the summit.
Dagger: We're almost there, Steiner. Alexandria is just beyond the summit, right?
Dagger: I managed it without Zidane's help...!
Steiner: You never needed him to begin with, Princess.
(Dagger): ......
* Try to leave
Dagger: I shouldn't go back...
* Map
Steiner: ...M-Miss Dagger.
Steiner: The gate we just crossed is called Bohden Gate.
Steiner: And here we are, at Bohden Station, still inside Lindblum.
Steiner: South Gate itself is inside Lindblum territory, but...
Steiner: ...the cable car will take us over the Aerbs Mountains into Alexandria.
Steiner: And this is the Treno Gate, which is where we are heading.
Steiner: Treno, the City of Nobles, should not be too far from there.
* Map
Listen to the itinerary?
* Yes
* No
Current location: Bohden Station
* (Shop): Welcome, welcome.
* Construction Worker: South Gate is a big place. It's a mountain, actually.
Construction Worker: You can check the board over there to see where you are.
* Construction Worker: Berkmea... It's a work of art.
* Conductor: Will you be boarding Berkmea?
* Board
Conductor: May I see your Gate Pass?
(Dagger): Okay!
Conductor: Yup, that's the one.
Conductor: We can depart right away, if you want.
* Depart
Conductor: Alright, then! Please go inside. We'll be departing shortly.
* Not yet
Conductor: We will be departing shortly. Please come back soon.
* Don't board
Conductor: We won't be departing for a bit. Take your time.
* Conductor: We can depart right away, if you want.
* Depart/Not yet
Berkmea
* Steiner: Where would you like to sit?
* Conductor: The car's empty, as you can see. Sit wherever you want.
* Steiner: The seats on the right look nice and warm from the sun.
* Bottom right seat
Dagger: Let's sit here.
Conductor: Please wait while I prepare for departure.
He does stuff. A bell rings.
Part-time Worker Mary: Wait! Wait for me!
She rushes in.
Part-time Worker Mary: <Pant, pant...> I made it!
Part-time Worker Mary: Thank you for your kind words earlier.
Steiner: No, I thank you.
(Part-time Worker Mary): ?
Conductor: Now departing!
They sit.
Seat
Dagger: Phew... I feel more relaxed now.
Steiner: That is understandable. Our journey from Lindblum was very tough. But...
Steiner: ...it was your white magic that helped me through the battles against all those monsters...
Steiner: ...your fortitude that got us past the obnoxious moogles in Chocobo's Forest...
Steiner: ...and finally, your idea to use gysahl pickles to get past the South Gate guards!
Steiner: I am thoroughly impressed by your intelligence and courage, Princess!
Dagger: Steiner, you can't call me that.
Steiner: My apologies. I'm just not used to...
Dagger: It's okay. I made lots of mistakes when Zidane taught me how to talk like this.
Steiner: That peasant had no manners whatsoever!
Steiner: Although...he did have some wit for a bumpkin, but...
Steiner: The way he spoke to you was simply unacceptable!
Steiner: I say good riddance.
Water room, in the Grotto
Freya (to the Burmecian): Can you stand up?
Burmecian Soldier: Don't worry... about me...
Burmecian Soldier: Please... protect Bur...me...

S/he sniffs a flower.
Freya: ...Quina does whatever s/he feels like doing. I must learn from his ways.
Zidane: I don't think it's intentional, Freya.
Freya: No, if I had done as I pleased, I would've been...
Quina: Zidane, this flower taste good!
