OLDERION FEDERATION - BURN STRONG, RADIANT LIGHT - GHOST SHIP OPENING

(The party is laying on the deck of the ship. Rain gets up on his knees.)

Rain: Hey! Is everyone all right?

Lasswell: It looks like the storm has passed us by.

(Rain stands and looks around.)

Rain: What about Fina? Where'd she go?

(He looks around some more, gets ! over his head and runs up some stairs to the prow of the ship.)

Rain: There you are, Fina. You're not hurt, I see.

(He turns to look out to sea, gets another ! over his head. The scene pans up to show a ghost ship sailing on the horizon.)

Fina: Huh. Clever... So he's using a ghost ship to hide out in.

Rain: Who is whatting a what?

Fina: I felt the power of the Sacred Ring. The Veritas is aboard that ghost ship.

Rain: Wh... But... Wouldn't he just fall through...?

Fina: Stop babbling and start moving. We're taking over that ghost ship.

OLDERION FEDERATION - BURN STRONG, RADIANT LIGHT - GHOST SHIP 1

(The scene immediately enters into battle with Veritas of the Waters.)

Veritas of the Waters: Wh-what's going on here?

Fina: What a novice, not being able to hide your own presence.

Nichol: Let's just assume that's all for the sake of appearance.

Veritas of the Waters: Nngh! I'm warning you! This won't go down like before!

(You defeat Veritas of the Waters! There is no further dialogue.)

OLDERION FEDERATION - BURN STRONG, RADIANT LIGHT - GHOST SHIP ENDING

veritas of the Waters: No.. the sacred vessel....

(The vessel glows on the deck of the ship,in front of Rain.)

Rain: So this is it... the sacred vessel of Paladia...

(Fina gets a ! over her head as Rain approaches the vessel.)

Fina: Rain, stop! Don't tough the sacred vessel!

(Rain bends down and gets a ! over his head.)

Rain: Wh-what the-!?

Lasswell: Rain!?

Rain: Uwaaaggggggh!

(The scene flashes white. Rain is laying on the deck, the glow from the vessel missing.)

Fina: Rain! Let it go! Drop the sacred vessel!

Rain: Guh....

(He kneels up and drop the vessel, which glows again on the deck. But now Rain's arm glows in white light.)

Nichol: Rain... Your arm... It's flowing!

Veritas of the Waters(!): That light.... So this child... truly is... I must tell Darklord at once...

(Veritas of the Waters collapses.)

(Fina approaches Rain.)

Fina(...): Well, at least it's not foul. That power pouring out of you, I mean.

Rain: Power? This is... my power? But then... Why is it so...

Fina: Painful? Because you're not ready for it. You still can't control your own power. But you need to make it your own, Rain, and quickly.

Rain(!): Make it my....? Where... have I heard those words before...?

Fina: I wonder if you can even manage it. You being you, I mean.

Rain: I'll.... I'll try....

(he stands.)

Lasswell: Fina! What is happening to Rain? Explain this at once!

Fina: I'm not bound to explain anything to you, Lasswell. This is a special something between me and Rain, not you.

Lasswell: A special... What!?

Fina: Oh, Lasswell... Jealousy is unbecoming in a man.

(Lasswell backs up a few steps.)

Lasswell: What was that!? J-jealousy...! Why would I--

Lid: Would you two give it a rest? Jeez! Rain, are you okay? Do you need to rest a while?

Rain: I'm fine. We don't have time to stop now. We have to get to the Water Shrine.

Fina(...): Good, Rain. That's the spirit.
