[The alarm suddenly sounds.]

Basch: Majesty. We will cut you a path.

Ashe: I will not place my trust in the sword of a traitor!

Vossler: Yet trust his sword we must, traitor or no. I see no other way. We track back, commandeer a ship, and make our escape.

[Ashe says nothing, and starts running.]

Basch: Her Majesty cannot abide weakness, least of all in herself.

Vossler: We must make her confront the reality of our plight.

Lulucce: Kupo! Not a word from you, kupo. I know why you’ve come! Oh, and thank you for opening the cell door, by the way. Most gracious of you! After this treatment, I think it’s safe to say we won’t be visiting any more Imperial warships in the near future. The road calls, kupo!

Tetran: Kupo? You don’t look like any Imperial I’ve ever seen, kupo. Me, kupo? I am but a humble traveling merchant. As luck would have it, I happen to be traveling here. Would you like to see my wares? I’ll warn you, though. I only sell to one kind of customer: the paying kind, kupo! [shop menu] Any merchant worth his salt needs but one thing to do business: a customer, kupo!

Tetran (x2): Interested in making a purchase? Don’t worry, I don’t even know the meaning of the word extortion, kupo! [shop menu] Any merchant worth his salt needs but one thing to do business: a customer, kupo!
