Chapter 1: Night of the Funeral
Part 4: Family
All right, we left off on a cliffside, looking for Hinawa.
Instead, though, we find something else!

This is the game's first real boss: The Reconstructed Caribou.
Right now, Duster only has one of his tools, but I'll be using it to try and squeeze a few less actions out of the Caribou.
In addition to hitting reasonably hard, tho boss's music is in 3/4 and has a fairly erratic melody, making sound combos harder to pull off than usual...
...until I get a good feel for the beat, that is.
God, I love this game.
All things considered, this battle isn't particularly hard. It goes down after a few turns of merciless beatings.
Yeah, you'd better run.
Unfortunately, my pursuit proves futile once they get back to their spaceship, and make a speedy getaway.
The same strange music comes from their ship as came from the shadow of what Hinawa saw.
Either way, it looks like this was all a fool's errand. There's no way Hinawa could have come through here.
On the way back, though, we find this.
Give it a read?
[Yes No]
All the creatures around here suck. We need to make 'em cooler.
So the theme will be:
-Tougher!
-Rougher!
-Badder!
We'll mix and match this and that to create whole new things no one's ever seen before!
I dub it the "Fastinating Chimera Project". Let's reconstruct and modify stuff slowly and steadily.
[Got a Pig-Mark Notebook!]
Still empty-handed, we head back...
JONEL
We found the kids! It seems they fell into a river and washed up here.
I'll look after Boney. You just hurry and see 'em.
Come, Boney.
Boney leaves the party, and I head over the way that used to be blocked by fallen trees.

TESSIE
I made some Innit tea, Flint. Please have some. It'll warm you up.
Here, everyone else should take a break and get warm, too.
Going around and talking to everyone, it seems there's still no sign of Hinawa. After a while...
BRONSON
I'm not sure what to say... but just stay calm and hear me out.
I have good news, and I have bad news. Which do you want to hear first?
No... let me start with the good news first. I picked up a giant "Drago Fang". It'll make for a great weapon. I figured you could probably use it.

As for the bad news...

The bad news is...
