[public] So, it's the new year.

And I don't feel any different.

I did have a good time in Port Royal for Christmas, though. Thanks again, James.

It's weird to be back in the Grand Line.

I can't believe I'm asking this, but... Balthier, are you still planning your little adventure to Sky Island? If you are, let me know. I need the cash.

Of course. I have someone who can transport me there, though I'm certainly still in need of a guide were I to visit. This fabled treasure of yours interests me, and with my flying ship we may have an advantage over other scavangers.

Like I said before, I'm not planning on going along on this wild goose chase. I'm not one for heights.

The best I can do for you is fashion maps of the general area below which the island is supposedly located - Jaya, Mock Town, Little Garden. You're on your own once you try to get to Upper Yard.

What a pity. And here I thought you were interested in money.

So be it. I've got no qualms with map-based navigation so long as your bearings aren't as queer as your proper nouns.

[shovel_sick]

Yeah, I'm interested in the money you'll be giving me in exchange for the maps.

Queer proper nouns? You're one to talk, Banana Balthier.
