(Our heroes go to a port near Artagel and get on a ship. After the player wanders around on the ship for a while, the scene shifts to Bones looking out at the ocean. Laurel is standing a few feet away. Marin approaches)

Marin: Rutul's nice this time of year, isn't it?

Bones: The plains always look nice from this far away.

Marin: Indeed…and in this case, they are a reminder that we're not even halfway to Nuntak.

Bones: I'm grateful for the chance to rest up.

(pause)

Marin: You must realize what an opportunity it is for a historian like me to be able to talk with you.

Bones: Oh boy, here it comes.

Marin: I've read what there is out there about your exploits with Volrath Blacksteele and Stephen Farmast, but—

Bones: Good. I don't feel like talking about any of that.

(Laurel turns to face Bones for a moment, then walks off screen)

Marin: But I was curious about your early days. Nobody seems to know what you did before you got involved in that early rebellion.

Bones: That's because my life up to that point wasn't all that interesting.

Marin: Just the same, I would love to hear about it.

(Finley, Cade and Laurel walk on screen)

Finley: Yeah, me too.

Bones: What?!

Finley: We got a tip from Laurel that you were gonna tell some stories, and I don't wanna miss it.

Cade: Me neither, I have to admit.

Laurel: Hee hee..sorry.

(pause)
Bones: (sigh) Fine.
