Lute is now free to wander around wherever he feels like going, but I head to Owmi to get his scenario, such as it is, underway.
OwmiRestaurant Patron: You can eat a whole lot more here because they don't use crap like MSG.
Lute: Really? You're from Nelson, eh?
Lute how did you even
Lute: You look pretty decent to me, although Trinity says you are vicious pirates.
Restaurant Patron: That's nothing but propaganda. Come see my ship sometime. You'd be surprised.
Captain: Chef, the food was terrific as usual.
I know how to get a ride on that unique ship! Go to Nelson!
YouTube doesn't have the song for this ship anywhere. It wasn't on the OST, either, as far as I can tell.
She means the
ship is the Victoria. The Captain, since apparently no one introduces her, is Captain Hamilton.
Captain Hamilton: Currently, the ship is assigned to monitor the activities of Mondo from Trinity's 2nd Intelligence Division. I assume you know him, too.
Lute: Mondo? Oh yeah, he gave me a ride on his ship. But I don't really know him.
Captain Hamilton: No, I'm talking about the guy who betrayed your father, and sold him out to Trinity.
Lute: What're you talking about? You mean dad and Mondo knew each other?
Captain Hamilton: You really don't know? I thought you approached me to avenge your father's death. Not to mention fulfilling his last wish.
Lute: Dad's last wish? What was he involved in?
Captain Hamilton: He was an anti-Trinity activist. He lost his first wife during his mission.
Lute: Hey, hold on a sec. Ma never told me none of this stuff. I don't even know your name. How do I know you're telling me the truth?
Captain Hamilton: Nelson is a tiny region. In order to resist an enormous power like Trinity, we need to collect all kinds of information. That's why we know many things which others don't.
Lute: Crammin' me with this stuff 'bout dad and Trinity all at once is only confusing me.
Captain Hamilton: I don't blame you. Maybe I should start over from the beginning. Like I said before, we are now assigned to watch over Mondo's activities. We discovered he is secretly building his own private army base. We are getting ready to attack the base when the time comes.
Lute: You're gonna start a war against Trinity?
Captain Hamilton: There won't be a war. Even Trinity doesn't know their own command is creating a private army.
Lute: Why does he need a private army?
Captain Hamilton: He's power-crazy and wants to completely rule Trinity.
Lute: Sounds a little far-fetched to me. I mean, why would anyone like Mondo need to crave for more power?
Captain Hamilton: Anyhow, we are ready to attack his base. Let us know when you decide to join us.
Lute: I don't really like violence. I'm really a pussy cat by nature.
That sentence is three words too long.
Are you ready to go to the
final dungeon?
Yes, really. That's it. That's all the plot you get in Lute's scenario, dumped on you all at once by Captain Hamilton. If you go to the last dungeon right now you'll die horribly, so let's go... grind. Do sidequests. Make some money. You know. Stuff.
