Talk with Dorin and Bambam

Bambam

Vision of Dorin is very terrible! So bad eyes.

Dorin

What kind of thing is that to say?!

Bambam

Bamban saw extremely giant monster!

Dorin

Look, if it was that extremely giant, I would definitely have seen it too!

Taion

I see it's that time again.

Lanz

What's this about a giant monster?

Bambam

Yes, giant monster, seen by very eyes of Bambam! Is giganto-normous monster!

Dorin

Yeah, but everything's gigantic to a little pipsqueak like you.

Bambam

Bambam can tell difference between medium-big and big-big! And don't call Bambam pipsqueak!
Bambam begging friends to verify honesty of Bambam! We find proofs together!

Taion

Are you asking us to go hunting for a giant monster?

Noah

OK, well, where did you see it?

Bambam

Bambam see on Piula Path! Bambam taking walk all innocent, and see by chance!

Noah

Well, I guess this is our business to, so we'll go with you.

Bambam

Such good friend!

Dorin

I thought I was your friend! Ugh, I still think this is some wild goose chase stuff.

Head for where the monster was seen

Sena

According to Bambam, this should be the place, right?

Lanz

Yep. Don't see anything though.

Taion

Maybe he was mistaken in what he thought he saw.

Bambam

No mistake in seeing! It was hunting here and eated up other monster!
Mehhh... Just remember it makes ears go wobbly...

Noah

A carnivorous monster, then?

Eunie

We could always set out some bait and see if it comes out.

Dorin

Is that really going to work?

Manana

This sound like job for Manana, bespoke bait-maker of extraordinary!
If bait smell enticing enough, then monster won't resist to come out and eat!

Bambam

Manana is best friend!!!

Dorin

Hey, I thought I was your best friend! But whatever, lets give it a try, I guess...

Noah

What do you need, Manana? We'll do some foraging for you.

Manana

Then Manana ask for Thick Ories Shank!

Mio

Thick Ories Shank, got it.

Bambam

Bambam and Dorin will get dinner ready back at camp. Thank for help, bye!

Prepare the acquired meat

Manana

Take meat like this...
And all finish!

Item(s) Obtained: Manana's Nibblekibble

Lanz

Wow, that actually does look good. Doesn't smell bad either.

Bambam

Time to bait trap!

Set the bait

Noah

That should do it. Now we just have to wait.

Mio

Let's watch from a distance.

Lanz

...
Nothing's coming...

Sena

Looks like Bambam was just seeing things.

Dorin

I told you so... Anyway, it's cold out here, so lets just-

Dorin and Bambam suddenly have a scared expression on their face and look slightly upwards behind the party.

Dorin

...

Bambam

...

Noah

What is it?

Dorin

B...b...b...BEHIND YOU!

The party turns around. There is a giant monster in front of them.

Sena

Monster!!!

Eunie

Look at that, it was real after all! And huge!

Bambam

Now you see! Now you see that Bambam good honest Nopon who not tell lie!!!

Dorin

Who cares about your honesty? We're going to get eaten!

Bambam

...Eek! Why you say thing like that?!

Dorin and Bambam run away.

Lanz

Time to save these guys again!

Defeat the Darbus

Bambam

You save us! We lucky to be alive...

Dorin

I didn't know you could even get them that big... I'm sorry for ever doubting you, Bambam.

Bambam

Bambam sorry for making us have scary experience...

Taion

On the whole, curiosity is a virtue, but it's better to avoid actual danger.

Lanz

You got that right. You've only got one life, you know.

Dorin

Yeah, don't I know it...

Bambam

Sound like it time to leave this awful place then.

Dorin

Let's get in the Levnis and make tracks!

Noah

Try not to get attacked again next time.

Dorin

Don't worry, we'll go all sneaky like, monsters won't even see us!
C'mon, Bambam!

Bambam

Stealthy-stealthy!

Dorin and Bambam run off. Before they can get very far, Bambam falls down in the snow and Dorin turns around to help.

Dorin

...Bambam?!
What's wrong?! Talk to me!

Taion

His pulse is slow. This is bad.

Dorin

What? You can't be serious! How could he suddenly keel over?!

Noah

Do you have any idea what could have happened to him?

Dorin

Why would I know?! Do I look like a medic?!

Noah

Dorin?

Dorin

...We don't have time to woolgather! We have to get Bambam back to Colony 4 right now!
If anyone can help him, Oleshandra can! She's our only hope!

Mio

We'll go with you. There's quite a way between here and Colony 4.

Eunie

And knowing you, you'll end up in a fine fix sooner or later if we leave you alone.

Dorin

I know we're more trouble than we're worth, but this time we really need you!
