Chapter 7: In the Light of the Crystal
:Search their possessions?
::Let's see now...
::I don't know... <----- Chose this option!
(You're always falling victim to these three. 
It's about time you returned the favor!)
:Search their possessions?
::Let's see now... <----- Chose this option!
::I don't know...
You find a Ducal Guard's ring!
Makki-Chebukki: Gyah!
Kukki-Chebukki: Argh!
Cherukiki: Kyah!
Makki-Chebukki: Are we alive?
Kukki-Chebukki: Are we breathing?
Cherukiki: Ack!
Kukki-Chebukki: You!
Makki-Chebukki: It's Player name, the one who angered Bahamut!
Cherukiki: Run!
Kukki-Chebukki: Flee!
Makki-Chebukki: Exit stage left!
Chains and Bonds (pt.1) - Tavnazian Safehold
Prishe: Player name!
Prishe: Where the hell have you been?
Prishe: You were knocked out again? 
You gotta be kidding me!
Prishe: Heh heh heh! 
Everyone else is okay. 
Thought we were all goners for a second there, though!
Prishe: By the way, did you figure out what happened?
Prishe: Tenzen's sword saved our butts.
Prishe: He released all the power of Phoenix and it shielded us from Bahamut's megaflare.
Prishe: This should keep his dragon-ness quiet for a while. 
I guess this puts us at a...whatchamacallit...a deadlock.
Prishe: ...
Prishe: You know what, Player name? 
This "living" thing is a real drag sometimes, huh?
Prishe: If it means I get to save the world and everything, I'm not that afraid to die, you know?
Prishe: But it looks like that won't be happening.
Prishe: There is a way to save Vana'diel without me kicking the bucket. 
Nothing simple, but there is a way.
Prishe: There's always been someone in every age who never gave up, always found a way...
Prishe: I mean, even living with Promathia's curse, people have survived.
Prishe: That's why I want you to keep on fighting. Keep on living.
Prishe: I kinda like having you around.
Prishe: Heh heh heh! Enough of this sappy talk!
Prishe: It's time to get moving, Player name!
Prishe: Next stop: the celestial capital of Al'Taieu! 
There's another Keeper of the Apocalypse that needs a taste of Knuckle Sandwich a la Prishe!
Prishe: Everyone's here in Tavnazia. Round 'em up and move 'em out to the port.
Chains and Bonds - Sealion's Den
Shikaree Z: Player name! 
It is just as Prishe said. 
You didn't fall from the airship after all.
Jabbos: Are you wounded...? 
Tell us...where...you are...hurt...
Jabbos: Think carefully... 
Wounds...of the spirit...can escape...your notice...
Jabbos: And they are...much more...dangerous...than physical...cuts and bruises...
Jabbos: If you are...wounded...this Moblin...medicine...can help...
Jabbos: Tenzen...said he...was fine...as well. 
But he...needs medicine...as much...as you.
Shikaree Z: Do you rrrealize what happened back there?
Shikaree Z: It was your actions that enraged the Wyrmking Bahamut.
Shikaree Z: The rift between dragons and people is deep. 
There was no rrreasoning with him.
Shikaree Z: If we could only harness the strength of the sleeping gods, we could approach Bahamut on equal footing...
Shikaree Z: Player name, tell Tenzen to rrreturn to town before Cid's airship arrives. I want to leave as soon as possible.
Chains and Bonds (pt.2) - Tavnazian Safehold
Ulmia: Player name! 
I'm sorry to have kept you waiting!
Ulmia: After all the excitement, I lost consciousness. 
I am afraid I have little idea of what went on.
Ulmia: But my ears still ring from that terrible battle cry, and my soul cringes from that heart-rending whisper...
Ulmia: That was the last we will ever hear from the great Phoenix.
Ulmia: While the other terrestrial avatars were forever flitting beyond our reach, the fiery Phoenix was always by our side.
Ulmia: Along with Tenzen, she gave us her strength and courage... 
She guided us along our path...
Ulmia: Is Tenzen all right? 
He laughed it off as an inevitable occurrence, but I am terribly worried for him.
Prishe: I'm a little worried about the samurai guy myself. 
He's closed himself off to everyone. Who knows what he's really thinking?
Prishe: Those warrior types are good at hiding their true feelings. 
I hope it's nothing serious.
Ulmia: Player name, please see if you can reach through the barrier that Tenzen has built against us.
Prishe: You're our best shot, Player name. 
Looks like Tenzen has skipped out of Tavnazia, and I don't like this little chill that's running up my spine.
Chains and Bonds (pt.3) - Tavnazian Safehold
Louverance: ...!
Louverance: Lord/Lady Player name, 
I'm glad to see you in good health.
Louverance: Your words landed us in a serious predicament, but at least we have made a safe return.
Louverance: However, if I were in Bahamut's skin, I would be most unwilling to forgive our recent actions.
Louverance: It would be in the best interests of the residents here if we were to leave as soon as possible.
Louverance: Speaking of which, have you seen our good friend Tenzen?
Louverance: Rumors have reached me that he has left the safehold alone, unable to bear the loss of the power in his blade.
Louverance: I am unclear on the properties of the weapon, but I am sure it is considered a national treasure in the Far East.
Louverance: Tenzen saved our lives with that sacrifice...
Louverance: We have already expressed our gratitude, but I believe you have yet to speak with him since the incident.
Louverance: Without an airship, we cannot leave this island.
Louverance: If Tenzen is nowhere to be found in the town, perhaps he set out for the Misareaux Coast?
