Naja Salaheem: And ya came to me first, instead of reportin' to that court puppetmaster. You're finally learnin' what it means to be a mercenary! Naja Salaheem: Grrreat work! Naja Salaheem: What did ya learn? Tell me everythin'. Naja Salaheem: Then we can let Miss Aphmau know, and earn some gold stars for Salaheem's Sentinels! Naja Salaheem: What's this? Ya met the ghost of a knight on Azouph Island...? Naja Salaheem: So...from what he told you, the ghost ship everyone's been talkin' about is really the Black Coffin from the lost Kingdom of Ephramad? Naja Salaheem: I was tryin' not to think about it when we were discussin' the request to find the ghost ship... Naja Salaheem: But, ghost ships are usually full of ghosts... Naja Salaheem: And I rrreally hate ghosts! I don't even want to imagine an army of spooks convergin' on the Black Coffin and plannin' rrrevenge on the Empire! Naja Salaheem: In any case, that's enough of your stories, Player name! Naja Salaheem: Who did ya think would believe that bedtime tale, anyway!? Naja Salaheem: There's no way I'm makin' a report to the palace based on some spook's ravin's! Show Naja the Ephramadian gold coin? I'll show her "bedtime tale"! Maybe not a good time... <----- Chose this option! Naja Salaheem: There's no way I'm makin' a report to the palace without a shred of evidence! Naja Salaheem: No way! Show Naja the Ephramadian gold coin? I'll show her "bedtime tale"! <----- Chose this option! Maybe not a good time... Naja Salaheem: Hm? What's this you've got? Naja Salaheem: A gold coin you picked up at the ghost's headstone...? Naja Salaheem: Hmmm... this is a high grade of gold to use for currency. I've never seen anythin' like it this day and age... Naja Salaheem: !!! Naja Salaheem: The crest of a crowned dolphin... Naja Salaheem: Wasn't it a symbol of the Kingdom of Ephramad...? Naja Salaheem: I can't believe ya found a prohibited coin from a nation obliterated two hundred years ago... Naja Salaheem: Hm? Ah, that's rrright. You're not rrreal familiar with the history of our country, are ya? Naja Salaheem: Ordinarily, I would tell ya to look into it yourself, but... Naja Salaheem: Since we have this important mission to consider, I'll let ya off the hook. Here's the story... Naja Salaheem: A long, long time ago...about two hundred years, I guess... Naja Salaheem: ...there was a tiny nation that commanded a formidable fleet and had amassed a fortune through trrrade. Naja Salaheem: It was known as the Kingdom of Ephramad. Naja Salaheem: Although small, this nation was powerful enough to compete with the already massive Empire of Aht Urhgan. Naja Salaheem: But now...you'd be hard-prrressed to prove that place even existed. Naja Salaheem: It was wiped off the map by the Empire. Naja Salaheem: This city of Al Zahbi was not always a capital of Aht Urhgan. Naja Salaheem: Big nations swallow little nations and expand their borders... Naja Salaheem: Well, that's the end of your history lesson for today. Naja Salaheem: Listen up, Player name! The first concern of my employees is the glory of the Empire! Naja Salaheem: How are ya gonna explain yourself to the Immortals if they find ya carrying around the coins of a defeated enemy nation? Naja Salaheem: You're not gonna find a store that will take that coin, anyway, and findin' someone to melt it down prrresents its own mess of problems... Naja Salaheem: Take this coin and throw it in the Cyan Deep before it gets ya into trrrouble! Naja Salaheem: I seem to rrrecall askin' ya to find out about a ghost ship... Naja Salaheem: Where the hell have ya been lookin'? Naja Salaheem: Don't tell me you're never seen a ship before. Naja Salaheem: Do ya even know where to find one? Where do ships sail? On land. <----- Chose this option! On the sea. In the air. Naja Salaheem: I don't know about your backwards country... Naja Salaheem: But in Aht Urhgan, the only things that run on land are karakul carts and chocobos! Where do ships sail? On land. On the sea. <----- Chose this option! In the air. Naja Salaheem: Well, well. So, even though you knew where to find a ship, you were still foolin' around on land? Naja Salaheem: You better start takin' this job seriously! Where do ships sail? On land. On the sea. In the air. <----- Chose this option! Naja Salaheem: Are ya tryin' to show off the technology of your homeland now? Those big shiny airships... Naja Salaheem: Anything that flies above the head of the Empress would get shot out of the sky in this country! Got it!? Naja Salaheem: Talking with you is like rammin' my head against a brick wall... Naja Salaheem: They don't make mercenaries like they used to... Naja Salaheem: Speakin' of which! There was another mercenary I sent after that ghost ship. Naja Salaheem: He said somethin' about feelin' an "ominous presence" to the west of Dvucca Isle... Naja Salaheem: Why don't ya go check out Dvucca Isle yourself, and take that coin with you. Naja Salaheem: You can throw it in the water out there while you're gettin' your damn job done! Naja Salaheem: And if ya come back with any more half-baked ghost stories, I'll take this morningstar and show you just how "affectionate" I can be! |- BGCOLOR="#FFA500" !The Black Coffin - Arrapago Reef |- BGCOLOR="#FFEC8B" |???: Mwahahahaha... Fhu Madihmin: Mwahaha... I am Fhu Madihmin... Fhu Madihmin: Mwahahahaha... Fhu Madihmin: I don't get many visitors here on the edge of the reef... Fhu Madihmin: Bwahahahaha... Fhu Madihmin: What could you be looking for? Fhu Madihmin: Mwahaha... Fhu Madihmin: You don't have to answer me. Fhu Madihmin: I know what you seek... Fhu Madihmin: Mwahahahaha... Fhu Madihmin: Bwahahahaha... Fhu Madihmin: That Ephramadian gold coin you clutch in your flesh-and-blood hand... Fhu Madihmin: ...mwahaha... Fhu Madihmin: ...will be your fare to board the Coffin... Fhu Madihmin: My cutter will take you to the...Coffin. Oh, most definitely... Fhu Madihmin: Through the mists, I will be your guide... A humble, forgotten ferrywoman... Fhu Madihmin: Time...flows on and around us... Fhu Madihmin: Your Ephramadian gold coin will be mine, one way or another... Fhu Madihmin: Mwahahahaha... Fhu Madihmin: Bwahaha... Does your courage fail you? Do you wish to return the way you came? Time to leave. <----- Chose this option! I am not afraid. Fhu Madihmin: Mwahahahaha... The Ephramadian gold coin is gone! Fhu Madihmin: Bwahahahaha... Fhu Madihmin: The fare is paid... Fhu Madihmin: Farewell... Do you wish to return the way you came? Time to leave. I am not afraid. <----- Chose this option! Fhu Madihmin: Bwahahahaha... Fhu Madihmin: You are honest... Fhu Madihmin: Your Ephramadian gold coin is mine... Fhu Madihmin: Mwahahahaha... Fhu Madihmin: Farewell... ???: Admiral, an Imperial dog has boarded our ship... ???: Kill him/her. Gessho: Player name! This place will be your death. We must retreat! Gessho: They finally show their forms... Gessho: I had concealed my presence, but sensed a chill in the air. Gessho: Then I noticed you on the deck, with some rather unfriendly company. Gessho: I must admit to my surprise. Gessho: But it is good to see another Sentinel who shares my instincts. Gessho: The being that gave the orders... Gessho: His supernatural aura was palpable. Gessho: We can assume he is the captain of the ship. Gessho: If we can but uncover the true identity of that apparition, the secrets of the ghost ship will be ours. Gessho: Fortunately, I have another Ephramadian gold coin for me, and one for you. Gessho: When you are prepared, let us return to the Ashu Talif, blades bared! |}
