[retellers]

... I suppose I cannot argue against that, can I.

[recrowns]

You can't.

[and he looks pleased with himself even as he laughs and returns to goat's side, seeking his hand]

Come, let's continue our walk before we get caught.

[retellers]

[ goat will let soo-won take his hand again! ] Where to, though...?

[recrowns]

I don't know.

[hate this man]

We can just walk and see where we end up?

[retellers]

[ he nods. ] Okay. We can do that.

[recrowns]

[yay!! off they go to wander around then, and soo-won will idly swing their hands as they go]

Do you know anything about pirates, Goat? The new Northern area actually looks more familiar to me than last week's.

[retellers]

No... I am not familiar with them.

[recrowns]

Hm... Do you know the concept of bandits? Thieves?

They're like that - but on the sea!

[don't sound so excited about crime]

[retellers]

I am familiar with thieves, yes... but what is there to steal on the sea?

[recrowns]

Mostly from other ships.

[ah.]

Depending on the cargo that they carry... it can be goods, drugs, jewels - sometimes even passengers.

Of course, there are pirates who seek to do harm - and then those who might even help others.

[retellers]

So there are... different kinds of pirates?

[recrowns]

Precisely so.

But I think that's because there's so many different kinds of people. It'd be odd to expect them all to be the same.

[retellers]

That is true. So the area up north has these "pirates", then?

[recrowns]

I believe so! It looks like a port town, which is the most common place for pirates to dock.

And the large ship is similar to that of a vessel that could hold pirates, I think.

[he doesn't have a LOT of personal experience but

enough?]

[retellers]

Is it...? I know of boats and ships, but I don't have much personal familiarity with them, I think.

[recrowns]

Then I know exactly where we're walking.

[TO THE NORTHERN AREA]

[retellers]

Ah... then I will leave it to you to lead the way.

[recrowns]

[OFF THEY GO -

but while they're going!!]

Actually Goat, I'd been meaning to ask... but do you know anything about the report that my group had found during our troubles last Thursday?

Or anything about what Sora was told in his adventure?

[retellers]

No, I don't know anything about that.

[recrowns]

It reads a bit oddly to me - and what Sora mentioned sounded a bit odd....

But I'm not sure how to keep pursuing those lines just yet. The implication seems to be that one of the leaders removed their mask rather early and was recognizable to a person here.

[retellers]

What did Sora mention? I wouldn't know if a Leader had removed their mask or not. We discussed it yesterday and agreed that it should be fine, but there was no rule forbidding it before then.

[recrowns]

Mm, you'd told me that it was just out of courtesy that you couldn't remove yours...

[he was so impatient but - he'll try to recall]

Sora told me the monster he'd fought said: "Do you believe you can change destiny? Time has already been written. There's nothing you can do, is there? Except try, try again. But you'll never make it."

And sometime during their battle, time froze and then it said: "Not yet. But remember, this is your last chance."

Apparently it stood out rather oddly to him.

[retellers]

[ ... goat just stares blankly, suggesting that he also doesn't know what that's about. ]

[recrowns]

Yes, that's how I feel as well.

[retellers]

Does he know for sure that it's about this place...? And not a remnant of whoever's memories might have formed the... entire thing.
