10TEXT_BANALL220_03162_SEQ_00J'olhmyn is more than ready to set to tracking Nhaza'a Jaab across the sea.
21TEXT_BANALL220_03162_SEQ_01You speak with J'olhmyn, who has little patience for delays─particularly those that come in the form of M'zhet. She dashes off toward the Ruby Price almost the instant you suggest it as a likely spot to find eyewitnesses, leaving him struggling to keep up.
32TEXT_BANALL220_03162_SEQ_02You meet with J'olhmyn and M'zhet, the latter of whom seems to have recovered his senses, if not his good sense. As time is of the essence, the former suggests that the three of you split up to more efficiently speak with those manning the Ruby Price and search for any other clues that may be present in the vicinity.
43TEXT_BANALL220_03162_SEQ_03Though you speak with several people zealously undertaking their duties at the Ruby Price, they assure you that no one matching Nhaza'a Jaab's description has passed through the area. Disappointing though the result may be, it at least narrows the range of potential routes he may have taken across the Ruby Sea.
54TEXT_BANALL220_03162_SEQ_04Midway through reporting the results─or notable lack thereof─of your investigation to J'olhmyn, you hear M'zhet's scream ring through the salty air. Rushing to its source, you find him being menaced by none other than Kabuto, who has evidently mistaken him for the man who stole Tsukumo─or rather, the materia that once was the kami's soul─right from the Kojin's helmet. Thankfully, your presence causes him to realize his error sooner rather than later, and the initial misunderstanding is soon forgotten. As it appears that the one who purloined Tsukumo and Alpa's kidnapper are one and the same, Kabuto eagerly joins you in your continued search for Nhaza'a Jaab.
65TEXT_BANALL220_03162_SEQ_05On Kabuto's recommendation, you make your way to the fishing village of Isari, again in search of eyewitnesses. Perhaps your inquiries will bear more fruit this time around.
76TEXT_BANALL220_03162_SEQ_06Upon questioning, one of the villagers claims to have seen a man with the characteristics you describe. Though he was apparently not accompanied by a mermaid, given the rarity of Miqo'te in the Far East and the man in question's peculiar fashion sense, it is all but certain that Nhaza'a Jaab indeed passed through Isari, and thereafter headed for either the Azim Steppe or Yanxia. Though the other fisherfolk can provide you with no additional information as to the villain's whereabouts, one man does mention a curious legend of potential note─that of the Three Wonders. According to the fisherman, these mythical treasures─which include the flesh of a mermaid─have been the subject of much gossip of late, as a certain noble lady has made their provision a requirement of those who would claim her hand in marriage.
87TEXT_BANALL220_03162_SEQ_07As you discuss your findings with your companions, Kabuto reveals that he is familiar with folklore regarding the Three Wonders, and that, in addition to Merflesh, the Jewel of Fair Souls and the Philosopher's Fin are counted among their number. He and J'olhmyn theorize that, due to Alpa's oft-remarked-upon resemblance to a mermaid of Far Eastern legend and Tsukumo's rare nature, it may be possible to pass them off as two of the three treasures to a gullible recipient. What Nhaza'a Jaab's ultimate goal in doing so might be remains shrouded in mystery, but if he is indeed collecting counterfeits of the Wonders, it is imperative that Alpa be rescued before her flesh can be separated from her person.

4948TEXT_BANALL220_03162_JOLHMYN_000_001Grrr... Just wait till I get my hands on that Nhaza'a Jaab! At least we have some idea where he's heading with Alpa, thanks to M'zhet.
5049TEXT_BANALL220_03162_JOLHMYN_000_002I've decided to reward him by not pushing him into the sea, even though he's making it so very tempting. More importantly, where do you reckon we should start our search?
5150TEXT_BANALL220_03162_JOLHMYN_000_003They likely passed by the Ruby Price? Well, what are we waiting for?
5251TEXT_BANALL220_03162_MZHETTIA_000_004J'olhmyn!? Where are you going?
5352TEXT_BANALL220_03162_MZHETTIA_000_005(“Just compliment her like a normal person”? It's my first time seeing her wear anything but armor! What do you want from me?)
5453TEXT_BANALL220_03162_JOLHMYN_000_050Right. Now that we're here, let's split up and ask whether anyone has seen a masked Miqo'te and a “mermaid” about.
5554TEXT_BANALL220_03162_MZHETTIA_000_051An excellent plan! Aaah, it's nice to have everything back to normal.
5655TEXT_BANALL220_03162_JOLHMYN_000_052This had better not be about my attire again... If you hadn't noticed, Alpa has been *kidnapped* by a *masked maniac*, so go find some eyewitnesses before I change my mind about drowning you!
5756TEXT_BANALL220_03162_MZHETTIA_000_053I never did get to tell her that her swimsuit was fetching, but at least I managed not to make a fool of myself!
5857TEXT_BANALL220_03162_GUARDA03162_000_055Keep your distance─we wouldn't want you carelessly firing the cannon. Only I get to do that.
5958TEXT_BANALL220_03162_GUARDB03162_000_060Nothing to report! At least not to you─I don't even know you.
6059TEXT_BANALL220_03162_MZHETTIA_000_065Finding Alpa is my first priority! What, can't you tell?
6160TEXT_BANALL220_03162_GUARDA03162_000_100A man wearing a sinister mask?
6261TEXT_BANALL220_03162_GUARDA03162_000_101He certainly hasn't passed through here. I would know─I've been looking for suspicious persons to fire at *all day*.
6362TEXT_BANALL220_03162_GUARDB03162_000_102A suspicious man with a...mermaid?
6463TEXT_BANALL220_03162_GUARDB03162_000_103Hahaha, very funny! You Westerners and your jokes...
6564TEXT_BANALL220_03162_JOLHMYN_000_105Let me know if you learn anything. Unlike some people, locating Alpa is my only concern right now.
6665TEXT_BANALL220_03162_MZHETTIA_000_110This is infuriating! No sign of any boats captained by brutish Miqo'te, nor whispers of one having passed by previously. Now I see why J'olhmyn is so annoyed!
6766TEXT_BANALL220_03162_GUARDA03162_000_175Still no sign of your masked man...
6867TEXT_BANALL220_03162_GUARDA03162_000_180But if he does pass through here, you can be certain that I'll blast him without hesitation!
6968TEXT_BANALL220_03162_GUARDB03162_000_185Mermaids again?
7069TEXT_BANALL220_03162_GUARDB03162_000_190Hahaha, it's even funnier the second time! But seriously, get out of my sight or I'll hurl you into the ocean.
7170TEXT_BANALL220_03162_JOLHMYN_000_150Any luck?
7271TEXT_BANALL220_03162_JOLHMYN_000_151You too, huh? It seems we've hit a dead end here. I haven't the slightest idea what to do now, though...
7372TEXT_BANALL220_03162_MZHETTIA_000_152Waaauuugh!
7473TEXT_BANALL220_03162_JOLHMYN_000_153What has he gotten himself into this time? Come on, Player!
7574TEXT_BANALL220_03162_MZHETTIA_000_154What is the meaning of this!? First you burst out of the water like some sort of sea monster, and now you threaten me with a blade? I don't even know who you are! Or *what* you are!
7675TEXT_BANALL220_03162_KABUTO_000_155You know not what you stole from me, but you *shall* come to regret it! Tsukumo is more precious than any treasure. Return him at once!
7776TEXT_BANALL220_03162_MZHETTIA_000_156Help me, Player! I'm being beset by this...er, turtle? Man? Turtle man!
7877TEXT_BANALL220_03162_KABUTO_000_157Player!? What an odd coincidence.
7978TEXT_BANALL220_03162_KABUTO_000_158Or not a coincidence at all, since you two seem to know each other. In which case, you have my apologies. I should not have drawn my blade without preamble.
8079TEXT_BANALL220_03162_MZHETTIA_000_159Think nothing of it! As the future leader of the M tribe, I was not at all alarmed by your sudden, menacing advance. Not in the least!
8180TEXT_BANALL220_03162_MZHETTIA_000_160I'm M'zhet Tia, by the way. And any friend of Player's is a friend of mine!
8281TEXT_BANALL220_03162_KABUTO_000_161I am honored to meet you. My name is Kabuto, and I lead the Blue's Divine Circle.
8382TEXT_BANALL220_03162_JOLHMYN_000_162The name's J'olhmyn─I'm with the Velodyna Gatekeepers in Ala Mhigo. Can I ask why you were on the point of skewering M'zhet?
8483TEXT_BANALL220_03162_KABUTO_000_163Ah. In my haste, I unfortunately mistook him for a thief who recently snatched Tsukumo from my helmet.
8584TEXT_BANALL220_03162_MZHETTIA_000_164What, precisely, is this “Tsukumo”? You seem rather keen on getting it back.
8685TEXT_BANALL220_03162_KABUTO_000_165Tsukumo is my dearest companion and guide, who once walked beside me as a karakuri puppet blessed with a soul. He is now present only as materia, but continues to watch over me.
8786TEXT_BANALL220_03162_JOLHMYN_000_166Wait, wasn't Nhaza'a holding something that looked an awful lot like materia when we saw him at the hot springs? Could that have been Tsukumo?
8887TEXT_BANALL220_03162_JOLHMYN_000_167If so, it would mean that he robbed Kabuto before kidnapping Alpa─and that we almost certainly won't find him on the Ruby Sea.
8988TEXT_BANALL220_03162_MZHETTIA_000_168But why not?
9089TEXT_BANALL220_03162_JOLHMYN_000_169If it were me, I wouldn't want to risk my prize being retaken by its rightful owner─and fending Kabuto off would be a sight more difficult with Alpa in tow. I'd put money on Nhaza'a having made for land as quickly as possible.
9190TEXT_BANALL220_03162_KABUTO_000_170A reasonable conclusion. Assuming he was headed for Othard, the most direct route would have taken him through the village of Isari.
9291TEXT_BANALL220_03162_JOLHMYN_000_171To Isari we go, then! We'll follow your lead, Kabuto.
9392TEXT_BANALL220_03162_JOLHMYN_000_200What a charming little fishing village. Would that we were here for some relaxing sightseeing.
9493TEXT_BANALL220_03162_JOLHMYN_000_201But we have a villain to catch and a captain to save, so let's get to it! Meet me back here once you've gathered as much information as you can.
9594TEXT_BANALL220_03162_KABUTO_000_205I must retrieve Tsukumo at all costs.
9695TEXT_BANALL220_03162_MZHETTIA_000_210How to best explain the situation... Perhaps I should start with Alpa. So, Alpa is an Ananta─wait, so an Ananta is a sort of person, like a mermaid, but not really...
9796TEXT_BANALL220_03162_ISARIVILLAGERA03162_000_250A masked man carrying a mermaid? Frankly, I'm not even sure I could imagine such a sight, and I certainly haven't witnessed it.
9897TEXT_BANALL220_03162_ISARIVILLAGERA03162_000_251I did see a man with a curious mask, though. He made landfall in a small boat, and I assume departed on foot soon thereafter, as I haven't seen him since. I'd wager that he made for the Azim Steppe or Yanxia, like most who pass through here.
9998TEXT_BANALL220_03162_ISARIVILLAGERB03162_000_252A suspicious man, and a mermaid with 'im?
10099TEXT_BANALL220_03162_ISARIVILLAGERB03162_000_253No, there ain't many suspicious sorts coming 'round our little village. And you'll pardon me for sayin' so, but it don't seem likely that a mermaid would keep such company.
101100TEXT_BANALL220_03162_ISARIVILLAGERC03162_000_254Hmm... I haven't seen your mystery man, but I can tell you that mermaids have been a subject of some discussion around here as of late.
102101TEXT_BANALL220_03162_ISARIVILLAGERC03162_100_254You see, local legend has it that somewhere out there, far from the sight and grasp of the ordinary man, are what we Hingans call the “Three Wonders,” mermaid's flesh being one. It is said to grant life eternal, be that for better or for worse.
103102TEXT_BANALL220_03162_ISARIVILLAGERC03162_000_255A few moons past, a young lady born to one of Kugane's oldest─and wealthiest─families proclaimed that, should any gentleman presume to ask for her hand in marriage, she would accept nothing less than all Three Wonders as a dowry.
104103TEXT_BANALL220_03162_ISARIVILLAGERC03162_000_256It's a fool's errand, certain enough─we Hingans love our faerie stories as well as any folk, but we know the Three Wonders are no more than fantasy. You have to admire her clever ploy to remain unwed, though, which is why it's the talk of the land.
105104TEXT_BANALL220_03162_JOLHMYN_000_260We need to cast a wide net, so let's spread out and speak to everyone. Make sure to really grill the local fishermen.
106105TEXT_BANALL220_03162_JOLHMYN_000_300Now that we're all back, let's share what we've learned. Hopefully between the four of us we'll have heard enough to go on.
107106TEXT_BANALL220_03162_JOLHMYN_000_301Hmm, so though Nhaza'a was indeed sighted, no one can confirm which direction he departed in. And, if your source is correct, Alpa is no longer with him. Did he stash her somewhere before landing in Isari? And where is he now?
108107TEXT_BANALL220_03162_KABUTO_000_302The Three Wonders may provide a clue. According to folklore, the treasures are Merflesh, the Jewel of Fair Souls, and the Philosopher's Fin.
109108TEXT_BANALL220_03162_JOLHMYN_000_303I shudder to think of the young lady being forced to marry Nhaza'a of all people, but based on his thefts so far, it does seem like he is collecting the Wonders─or treasures with passing similarity to them, at least.
110109TEXT_BANALL220_03162_KABUTO_000_304Indeed. If Tsukumo is his substitute for the Jewel of Fair Souls, and your Alpa is meant to be the source of Merflesh, that leaves only one.
111110TEXT_BANALL220_03162_MZHETTIA_000_305“Flesh” certainly implies a level of dismemberment that I'm not comfortable with. We have to stop him!
112111TEXT_BANALL220_03162_JOLHMYN_000_306Yes, I realize that! If you have any brilliant ideas as to *how*, now's the time─we can't allow him to stay one step ahead of us.
113112TEXT_BANALL220_03162_ISARIVILLAGERA03162_000_310Assuming your masked man is the same one I saw, he likely headed for the Azim Steppe or Yanxia.
114113TEXT_BANALL220_03162_ISARIVILLAGERA03162_000_315I wish he'd had the mermaid with him, too─that must have been a sight to see!
115114TEXT_BANALL220_03162_ISARIVILLAGERB03162_000_320Nope, I ain't never in my life seen a man like the one in your tale. Sounds right unsavory.
116115TEXT_BANALL220_03162_ISARIVILLAGERB03162_000_325An' the thought of a mermaid bein' with him is downright unbelievable! They ain't about to hang around with riffraff.
117116TEXT_BANALL220_03162_ISARIVILLAGERC03162_000_330Hm? Oh, the young lady?
118117TEXT_BANALL220_03162_ISARIVILLAGERC03162_100_330I hear she is a maiden of extraordinary beauty, born into wealth and power. And if the tales of her setting her suitors to such an impossible task are true, she's sharp as they come, as well.
119118TEXT_BANALL220_03162_ISARIVILLAGERC03162_000_335It makes no difference, though. The Three Wonders are the stuff of legend, and legend alone, so none will have her hand, no matter how they pine.
120119TEXT_BANALL220_03162_ISARIVILLAGERC03162_000_340So don't get any ideas, you hear?
