===Board the Xianzhou Luofu===
;(Talk to Himeko)
: Himeko
:Himeko: If there's something you've got to do, do it now. Better than regretting it further down the line.
----
;(Talk to Pom-Pom)
: Pom-Pom
:Pom-Pom: You want to disembark, Dan Heng? Changed your mind?
: Yes.
::Pom-Pom: Well then, Pom-Pom wishes you the best of luck.
: ...
::Pom-Pom: Mm... Pom-Pom understands. Not everything needs to be put into words.
::Pom-Pom: Best of luck.
:Pom-Pom: Make sure you return before the Express departs...
:Pom-Pom: ...and bring Pom-Pom back some local specialties?
;(Talk to Pom-Pom again)
: Pom-Pom
:Pom-Pom: Something else you need?
----
: Leave
:
===Cross Cloudford and catch up to the Trailblazer squad===
;(Immediately after leaving the Express)
:Dan Heng: Can't send the message out...
:Dan Heng: The network is down, but some functions still work?
;(After walking down the stairs)
:Dan Heng: Virtually nothing has changed since I left...
:Dan Heng: ...apart from darkness, this place is all that I remember of the Luofu.
: Investigate
:Dan Heng: Shattered Cloud Knight armor...
:Dan Heng: A conflict with the Cloud Knights? Hm... Not likely, Mr. Yang wouldn't let that happen...
----
;(A cutscene begins)
:???: Stay where you are — I can handle this.
:???: Emergencies should be dealt with by professionals...
;(Dan Heng [Trial] and Sushang [Trial] fight against Mara-Struck Soldier)
----
;(If the characters take some damage during the fight)
:Dan Heng: ...You're hurt.
:Sushang: It's okay! Phew, this one's strong alright!
----
;(If either character goes to 0 HP during the fight, a cutscene plays where the man standing by revives them)
;(If defeating Disciples of Sanctus Medicus: Shape Shifter without either trial character going to 0 HP, the same cutscene plays after winning the fight and the battle restarts against Disciples of Sanctus Medicus: Shape Shifter)
:Dan Heng: What...?
:With you two risking your lives for me...
:Could I really...
:"...stay where I am?"
;(Luocha [Story] joins fight against Disciples of Sanctus Medicus: Shape Shifter)
----
;(After winning the fight)
:Sushang: Are you two okay?
;(The other two nod)
:Sushang: Good. I'm Sushang of the Cloud Knights — I was just transferred here from the Yaoqing!
:Sushang: I did tell you to let me handle it. I don't have eyes in the back of my head — what if I accidentally hit you?
:Luocha: Forgive me miss, but you were too busy being hit yourself. It's a good thing I joined the fray.
:Sushang: Ha, I was protecting you more like — it's a Cloud Knight's job to protect others. This area is under martial law, I'm escorting all civilians to safety. Follow me.
:Sushang: That was some impressive Cloud Knight spearmanship. Which unit are you from?
: (Shake head)
: I'm not a Cloud Knight.
:Sushang: Huh, okay... You're a civilian then. Come with me!
:Luocha: Miss Sushang, what exactly has transpired here? In all my trade visits, I've never seen Starskiff Haven in such a state.
:Sushang: I, uh... I can't comment on that. I was just ordered to rescue the civilians... Actually, I have no idea either. Anyway, you two just need to come with me.
:Sushang: Hey, you're pretty quiet. What's your name? I've got forms to fill out — can't put your name down as blank.
:Dan Heng: My name is Dan Heng. I'm a traveler. I'm on my way to meet up with my friends. I appreciate the help, but I can leave the port on my own.
:Sushang: No can do, mister — it's way too late. You won't find anyone at Starskiff Haven. If your friends made it out, then they'll already be in the safe zone. No need to worry, you'll see them when we get there.
:Luocha: Aren't you going to take my name too, miss?
:Sushang: You already said it when we were busy fighting. Luo... something... Luocha! Is that right? I remember it.
:Sushang: Let's go! Stay close, you two. Cloud Knight Sushang will guarantee your safety!
:Sushang: Ah, one more thing — I need you to write your names down later. I don't know too many characters, I might make a mistake...
