- I search the galley for food that I can take to the banquet.
- ???: Who's there?
- The stern voice is coming from behind me. I hastily hide my sack full of food, and get up to see who's here.
- Chef: Oh, Miss Gina, it's you.
- Chef: I heard something, so I was wondering if a beast from the island had found its way into the galley. You scared me half to death!
- You: Sorry, Cook. Why are you back here?
- Chef: They're holding the celebratory banquet soon, so I came back to get some tools.
- Chef: My assistant is the one who needs them. Oh, and by the way...
- Chef: The captain has returned with his team. He's been looking for you all over the place!
- You: Sinbad and the First Mate are back?
- Chef: Yes, and I think they've made some new discoveries that they're going to announce at the banquet.
- Chef: We shouldn't linger here. Let's go!
- The cook and I get off the ship and quickly make our way to the banquet location.
- I've already witnessed the grandeur of the architecture here, but I'm still impressed by the island mansion.
- You: It's just as luxurious as Sinbad's mansion.
- Sinbad: Gina, where did you go?
- You: Sorry, Sinbad. I was a little tired, so I went back to the ship to rest.
- Sinbad: Haha, I guess you're still adjusting to your first voyage.
- Sinbad: It's all right, Gina. You're already doing much better than some youngsters I've seen.
- Sinbad: Find yourself a seat. The banquet is about to begin!
- The food-laden table is an exciting sight, but I remember Light's advice and look for a seat in a quiet corner.
- You: (I have to keep my head down during the banquet...)
- Sinbad walks to the center of the hall and clears his throat, tapping the wine glass in his hand.
- The room goes quiet.
- Sinbad: I'm going to say a few things before we kick off the celebration.
- Sinbad: First of all, I would like to thank all of you for the hard work you've done to get the ship here safely.
- Sinbad: Second, I would like to thank this uninhabited island for providing us with shelter tonight.
- Sinbad: Now, let us enjoy ourselves! Cheers!
- Crew: Cheers!
- A few drinks later, everyone's faces are flushed.
- Sinbad staggers to his feet and starts talking about his past adventures at sea.
- I've heard these stories countless times at his mansion before.
- But tonight, I'm seated among those who have experienced these adventures first hand. That makes this a brand new experience for me.
- You: (After three rounds of drinks, everyone looks rather drunk...)
- Crewmate A: I honestly didn't expect to find this legendary island...
- Crewmate B: The time I spend here will be the most memorable moments of my life...
- You: I can't wait to tell my friends about this expedition when I get back to the Full Moon Kingdom.
- Sinbad: That's all for my tale... And now, what you've all been waiting for.
- Sinbad: Would you like to know what the First Mate and I found on the island today?
- Crew: Treasure! Treasure!
- First Mate: Good guess, everyone! The captain led us all the way through the wilderness this evening.
- First Mate: After just a few miles, we found an eye-catching cave.
- You: Cave? Did you go in?
- Crewmate A: My, this really is Miss Gina's first time sailing with our captain...
- Crewmate A: The captain isn't the type to leave us here on the mainland and go off exploring by himself.
- Sinbad: We lit the path to the cave's entrance with torches and looked inside the cave.
- Sinbad: The cave's smooth walls reflected rippling water, and we could see glittering gold light shining forth!
- Sinbad: This cave must contain all the treasures of the island.
- Crew: Treasure! Treasure!
- Sinbad: We shall eat well tonight and drink our fill. Then we'll be ready for tomorrow's adventure!
- Sinbad: Let's toast to an exciting day ahead!
- Sinbad's speech boosts the jovial mood even further. The crowd starts singing sailing songs in the noisy hall.
- A few drunken crew members bring me a cup and ask me to drink with them. I manage to muddle through with the water I'd brought with me.
- In the process, I accidentally get my clothes wet.
- You: (It's a terrible feeling to look at all this delicious food and not eat it.)
- You: (I should take this chance to go back to the ship, change my clothes, and get some air!)
- Away from the party, I make my way back to the ship alone.
- There is a gentle night breeze. After changing my clothes, I take a short stroll in the shallows. Then I realize I've forgotten all about Light.
- Light: You're running around all by yourself, and you didn't even summon me.
- Light: What if something happens to you in the middle of the night?
- You: Are you worried about me? It's okay. There is only one path leading inland from here. I won't get lost.
- You: Besides, we've already been up and down this path several times. It's trampled flat and easy to walk on.
- Light: Speaking of this path, don't you think it's strange?
- You: Why do you say that?
- Light: The central area is surrounded by jungle, and yet there is an obvious way in...
- Light: You also mentioned that the path gets flatter and wider the further you go, which doesn't make sense.
- Light: It feels as if the island is luring you deeper...
- A chill runs down my spine.
- Light: Close your mouth or you might end up swallowing sand.
- Light: I hope I'm just overthinking things...
- You: Light, we'd better get back before it gets too late.
- You: I'm not sure if it's a good idea to leave Sinbad and the crew by themselves.
- Light: You're right. Let's go.
- We relax once we're back in the hall.
- Some of the sailors are slumped against the walls, others are muttering to themselves as they cling to barrels of wine, and many are lying unconscious on the floor.
- You: I'm a little worried about them catching cold, but I guess nothing serious has happened.
- You: That's a relief.
- Light: Hey, why don't I see the big guy?
- You: Sinbad? Isn't he here? Maybe he went out for some air.
- I'm instantly alert, and search the place for Sinbad. I find no sign of him.
- You: What should I do? The First Mate and the cook are too drunk and I can't wake them up.
- Light: We came from the shallows, and didn't see anyone on the way here. He must have ventured deeper into the island.
- Light: That's not good! We have to go check it out, Gina.
- We run into the jungle. After a while, we start hearing an intermittent sound.
- The deeper we go, the louder the sound gets. Eventually, we discover Sinbad staggering away in the distance.
- You: Sinbad, is that you?
- I shout in Sinbad's direction, but he doesn't respond.
- Light and I look at one another. We don't dare to stop. Then we hear the sound again.
Find the source of the sound
- You: Light, did you hear that? What was that voice?
- Light: I can't tell, but someone must be playing tricks on us.
- Light: I'll fly up and try to discern where the sound is coming from. You follow the big guy.
- Light: If you're in danger, shout my name. I won't be far.
- You: Alright.
- Light goes after the ghostly voice while I trail after Sinbad.
- After walking for a long time, he finally stops in front of a cave. Light has traced the ghostly sound to the cave as well.
Keep up with Sinbad
- You: Sinbad? Sinbad!
- He doesn't respond to me, so I have no choice but to keep following him.
- Light: Has he ever run around on his own after getting drunk?
- You: I don't think so...
- Light: That's strange. He looks like he's in a trance.
- You: It might be dangerous to wake him up. Let's keep following him and see where he goes, alright?
- Light: Good idea. Let's go. Remember to watch your step.
- We follow Sinbad closely. After a long while, the entrance to a cave looms before us.
- You: Is this the cave Sinbad mentioned during the banquet?
- You: But Sinbad wouldn't have come by himself because he has promised to bring everyone here in the morning.
- Sinbad continues stumbling forward. Light and I exchange looks, and continue following him.
- The entrance to the cave is dimly lit. I grope my way forwards while holding onto the rock wall and listening for Sinbad's footsteps.
- We continue like this for a while before I'm blinded by a sudden burst of light...
