Chapter 32 — Flowery Entrance
Perspective — Narrator
Lady of the Lake lobby 7 am
Diko: Well let's go to the new island.
The rest of the party are awake now.
Bile: While I'm glad you're enthusiastic about this, do you have any idea what are we suppose to do once we go there?
Diko: Umm... Look for a new labyrinth!
Bile: And?
Diko: Exploring it of course!
Rolio: Why are you asking these obvious question anyway.
Bile: Just on a whim.
Rolio: ...
Island of Cascades
They eventually go to the Island of Cascades and luckliy find new labyrinth immediately.
Bile: Well isn't that convenient.
Diko: Let's go!
Petal Bridge B1F
Diko: Wow...
Bile: You'll never get tired of adventuring seeing things like these.
Rolio: Hmm...
Diko: What is it?
Rolio: I remember hearing about labyrinth with so much flowers.
Diko: So it's likely from High Laargard?
Rolio: Yes, though I don't know much about it.
Bile: So no intels huh.
Diko: Look. We'll be fine, we manage through other labyrinth right?
Bile: Aside from Western Shrine we receive support or intels for all of them. Oliver, Marco, and Wiglaf in Lush Woodlands. Me with my Etria origin in Primitive Jungle. The trio and their experience in adventuring in Waterwood Falls. Oliver, Marco, Leo, Charis, and Rob in Southern Shrine.
Diko: Umm... We'll be fine!
Bile: That's not very convincing.
Rolio: How about we stop arguing and keep going.
Diko: Yeah let's do that!
And so they start their adventure in the newly discovered labyrinth. They then encountered a wolf.
Rolio: How cute!
Diko: Huh?
Rolio seems more enthusiastic than usual, much to the bewilderment of others.
Rolio: Hm? Oh it's owned.
There's a name tag on it which signifies that this wolf is someone else's.
Rolio: Wulfgar jr. is what the sign said. Wulfgar...
Diko: Hm? What is it?
Rolio: Nothing, seems like it's tame.
Rolio is back to her usual tone. The wolf seems to want to follow the party.
Diko: Guess we follow it.
Wulfgar Jr. joined the party.
Diko: Let's go!
They encounter monsters like always.
Rolio: Cockatrice!
Bile: Monster with petrifying stare huh?
Bile shoots its eyes immediately, and it can't retaliate.
Diko: Good job! But why there?
Rolio: Either that or being made out of stone, now kill it!
After that they find FOE. Figures.
Bile: Seems to be like the bird in the Southern Shrine.
Diko: Then maneuver around it shouldn't be so hard.
Rolio: Look at it more clearly Diko!
Diko: Huh?
Bile: See anything note worthy?
Diko: ...It fly really fast?
Rolio: Exactly, maneuvering around it is going to be harder.
Diko: We're going to be fine!
What follows is multiple attempts to get past the FOE.
Diko: So exhausted!
Bile: Stop bitching.
They go further into the labyrinth, get pass more FOEs, and find a platform. The wolf seems to want the group to go on it.
Diko: Wonder what this doesssss!?
When Diko step on it the platform move as well.
Rolio: Well then.
Bile: Seems like we have to go on the platform to explore further.
Diko: But how do we do that when it's here and not there!
Bile: Is it just me or is she getting dumber the more we explore?
Rolio: Sure hope that wasn't actually the case.
Diko: Girls?
Bile: Go back on the platform!
Diko: O-Okay!
She and the platform come back.
Bile: We all have to go on to the platform at the same time, thankfully there's enough room for all of us.
They continue with their exploration, and the wolf immediately runs to someone.
Woman: Junior, you're back, did you finds any sailors over there?
Diko: Um. Hi?
She then notices the party and leaps to her feet.
Woman: Hey, I've never seen you before. Are you adventurer from Maginia?
The woman takes out her weapon and eyes the party with caution.
Diko: We-
Bile: What about you? Who are you?
The woman is first taken aback by Bile's words, but after a moment, she smiles.
Woman: I suppose you have a point. I'm Artelinde. I'm an adventurer working as a guard for the Seafarer Princess' fleet.
She then introduce her companion Wulfgar Jr. and talk a bit about her father who is a seasoned adventurer.
Diko: Guess we'll introduce ourself now. We're adventurer working from Maginia, come from the flying city thing.
Bile: (Do you really need to told her that?)
She looks surprised by Diko's answer and mutter to herself while patting the beast.
Artelinde: I see. So they really did come here on that flying city.
Artelinde stands up and points to the north.
Artelinde: If you advance beyond the Petal Bridge, you'll arrive at the Seafarer's base.
She then explains what she's doing here. Looking for the Seafarers who were scouting the area.
Artelinde: It's a good thing you run into me first.
Rolio: It's about that ugly history right? They're natural enemy because of it.
Artelinde: Yes, and because of that you shouldn't go any further.
Perspective — Martha
Petal Bridge B2F (Yesterday)
These guys just won't back down do they?
Seafarer: Die!
They aren't very strong but they sure won't let us pass.
Astroa: We should use some sort of skill to slow them down, so we can actually go pass them.
Martha: That's our only option not counting killing them.
I barely get a wound from all of then ganging up on us, not sure if it's us being too strong or them being too weak.
Seafarer: These guys are monsters!
Astroa: How rude.
Teque: You know what? I'm done.
Martha: Hey what are you doing with those daggers?
