Hey, pal. Any idea where Hapi is?

Balthus

Right. This is bad. Real bad.

Balthus

Huh. This is bad. Real bad.
link
What's bad?
link
Balthus
volume_up

It's nothing. Well... OK, fine. If you insist, I'll tell you what's happened.

Balthus

Thing is...a box was delivered yesterday. Filled with feathers. Pricey ones. For bedding.

Balthus

Hapi loves a good nap, so she climbed on in. Now she and the box are nowhere to be found.

Balthus

I checked with my merchant contacts. Turns out it was taken to Enbarr to be sold...on the black market.

Balthus

You catch what I'm throwing, yeah? Hapi was fast asleep in the thing when it was stolen...
link
Balthus
volume_up

Oh, but it can. That's Hapi for you.
link
Balthus
volume_up

Thanks. I mean, yeah. That's Hapi for you.

She runs like clockwork, that one. Goes to bed at sunset and won't wake up until sunrise.

Balthus

If we don't go and find her, something terrible could happen.
link
Balthus

One sigh and a demonic beast could come barreling through town...
link
If that were true, that would be bad.
link
Balthus
volume_up

Right! Way I see it, I have no choice but to rush off and rescue her. You in?
link
Balthus
volume_up

Heh, knew I could count on you! Let's get to it.

Finally, we're here.

Now where's Hapi? We've gotta find her before that box is sold...
link
Balthus
volume_up

Let's split up and search the town. We'll cover more ground that way.

Still no sign of her...

I know. Where in the hell could she—Gah!

Hapi

I can't believe you, B! Well, I can, but that doesn't make me any less angry.
link
Balthus
volume_up

Whoa, easy there! I have a good reason. Trust me.
link
Hapi
volume_up

Don't even try to weasel your way out of this. Ooh, you're the worst!
link
Hapi
volume_up

Don't ask me. I was just relaxing in Abyss, and when I came to the surface, everyone was gone.
link
Hapi
volume_up

When I heard he was dragging you here I nearly threw a fit!
link
Hapi
volume_up

You didn't need to find me. I was relaxing in Abyss. He made up that story as an excuse to drag you here.
link
Balthus
volume_up

You don't even know what I did yet. Not that you're wrong, but still.
link
Balthus
volume_up

Look, I may be a scoundrel, but I stand by what I did. Let me explain.

Balthus

I got a tip-off that an item was being sold on the black market today. Not just any item. My mom's—

There you are! How dare you interfere with our business!

Rogue

You have no idea what you've gotten yourself into. You're finished!
link
Balthus

We'll continue story time later. First, I'll need your help clearing out these thugs.
link
Balthus

You're really going to abandon her? Didn't think you had it in ya. If you change your mind, just holler.
