Vaan: What, you already heard about that?
Dalan: Wise I may not be, but well-informed I am.
Vaan: They’ll get what’s coming to them someday, believe me. But that’s not why I’m here.
Dalan: Do tell!
Vaan: I want to know how to sneak into the palace. They’ve got to have some great stuff in there! Thought I’d partake.
Dalan: Not one to mince words, are you, boy. The Empire protects what’s hers. That means the palace and all the treasures inside.
Vaan: That’s why I’m gonna do it! To take back what’s ours!
Dalan: So our champion of the sewers aspires to noble action. Admirable. Perhaps I can help you. Ah, now that I think on it, there was a rumor, yes. A secret passageway into the palace vaults, a door, and a magicked stone to open the way.
Vaan: That’s it! This is exactly why I came to talk to you first, Dalan. So… where’s this, uh, magicked stone?
Dalan: Eh? Oh, I’ve had it for years. If I can remember where I’ve tucked it away…
Vaan: I’ve heard all I need. So this, uh, Crescent Stone. Can I have it? Then I can find that secret passage into the palace, right?
Dalan: Not much of a listener, are you… The Crescent Stone has lost its magicks. Without the power of a sunstone, it will be of little use.
Vaan: Right. So where can I get one of these sunstones?
Dalan: You seek Giza Plains. Speak with the nomads there. You will find your sunstone. Leave by Southgate and continue south. Their village is not far. There are like to be beasts on the plains, so be careful, m’boy.
Vaan: You don’t have to worry about me. I’ll be back before you know it.
Dalan: I need that sunstone, Vaan. You should start by talking to the nomads on the Giza Plains. If you leave by Southgate, their village is not far.
Rabanastran (woman in pink, blue and red standing at left of room): You may want to talk with the moogle from the Cartographers’ Guild in the Southern Plaza before you leave for Giza. It can’t hurt to have a map.
Rabanastran (boy in blue sitting at right): You goin’ to Giza Plains? Be careful!
[After walking out the door...]
Vaan: Let’s see, Giza Plains… Hang a right here, and I’m practically at Southgate. This’ll be easy.

Filo: Arr, Vaan! Welcome to the Buccaneer’s Brigade! Come to tell us more stories about bein’ sky pirates? This scurvy bunch would rather hear about bein’ sky pirates than train for it. Maybe they need some trainin’ on walkin’ the plank…Fidget: Filo’s had us trainin’ real hard. Bein’ a sky pirate’s a lot more work than I thought.
Layabout: Bein’ a sky pirate? Nothin’ to it! You just fly all over the place in your airship. So how come there aren’t as many real sky pirates anymore? These days, most of them what say they’re sky pirates are just a buncha thieves. Not me. I’m gonna be a real sky pirate! Yarr!
