Part 10: Chapter Ten: The Sea of Sand
When last we left our tale Felt had arrived in Agito Cove, the hideout of the Simsilt on the western continent.Simsiltian: If the repair works, itll take us to the eastern continent.
Moored at the cove was the Dynasty Horn.
Bully: This is the Dynasty Horn. Its a Simsiltian ship.
Ship?
Bully: What? Youve never heard of the Dynasty Horn?
You can cross the sea really fast on this baby.
Sea?
Bully: Too bad the ship was damaged in that storm the other day.
Once its fixed, we can cross to the eastern continent in no time.
Felt didnt know much about the sea, but he certainly needed a way to cross it.
Its Felt, and I heard it was damaged
Right, Felt. Anyway, do you mind waiting awhile until its repaired.
Sure. Is there anything I can do to help?
The more people working on it, the faster the repairs will be.
Besides, I dont really like waiting around.
As long as its for free, we welcome your help.
Do we need any supplies?
Simsiltian: Well, the sails were all ripped up, so well need some cotton cloth.
How much will we need?
Simsiltian: About 5 sheets should do it.
Okay, Felt, youre in charge of getting the cloth.
Im sure they sell it in Tatalia Village. Please go and buy 5 sheets.
Alright.
System Message: Received 500 Cole to buy cotton cloth.
Unfortunately for Felt, hed have to go it alone from this point.
More important work ?
Yep. I have to raise the morale around here.
So, sorry but youre gonna have to rise solo to Tatalia Village.
But I thought We
Oh, and try not to pass out and die, okay?
System Message: Noin has left the party.
And when he reached Tatalia Village, Felt got some bad news.
Hi, I need cotton cloth. Do you have any?
Oh, Im sorry. I just sold out.
Ill get more next month. Would you like me to place an order for you?
Next month? I cant wait that long.
Is there anyway you can get some sooner?
If you really want to, you can pick some Tatalia Cotton in the desert.
But, the storms have wiped out the crops.
Really? Then I may have to wait.
But, Ill check the desert to make sure.
Sir Please wait!
?
Im really sorry I didnt have what you needed. Please take this.
I cant
Please take it. Its important that every customer is satisfied.
System Message: Received [Clothspinner]!
You now have the recipe for [Cotton Cloth]!
With this, Viese can spin some more cotton cloth for me!
Alright, now all I need is some Tatalia Cotton.
Thank you for shopping with the Zwital Merchants Association!
Felt headed for the deepest depths of the desert, hoping to find any sign of the famed cotton plants of Tatalia.

Tatalian Guy: Do you still want to go to such a dangerous place?
Okay, Im not gonna stop you. But, Im not gonna send anyone after you, either.
The Tatalian man proved quite correct about the dangers of the deepest deserts.
Somethings coming!
A freakish monster burst from the sands.
Whatever it is, its huge!
Looks like youre getting your tail whipped, boy.
But Felt would not have to fight it alone.
The names Gray. Looks like you could use a hand, boy. Or a blade.
Boss Battle: Sand Dragon
Sand Dragons a pretty simple fight. Break him after his first attack and then unleash Grays Twin Dragon attack while hes Broken, the automatic critical hits will leave him near death and you should be able to finish him off before he even gets another hit in.
After the battle, Felt finally had a chance to take a good look at who had come to his rescue.
Thanks for the help.
Think nothing of it.
Wow, I didnt know there were any Mana tribes in this world.
Mana? Whats Mana?
And just what do you mean by this world?
Umm, haha, where should I begin?
Felt explained his situation to the Dragonslayer.
Yes. I believe the key to saving Eden lies within that church.
Hmm, you actually believe all this?
Well, Ive never saved the world before. Mind if I come along for the ride?
You?
You got somethin against me?
Youve seen how strong I am in battle.
Oh, yeah. Youve got plenty of strength.
Are you sure you want to follow someone you just met?
If youre not crazy, I wouldnt miss this trip for the world.
Besides, without a goal, Id be drifting around Belkhyde forever.
And if you are crazy, at least I wont be bored.
So, whats your name?
My name is Felt.
You may call me Gray. Nice to meet you.
Yeah, its nice to meet you, too.
System Message: Gray has joined the party!
Deep in the desert, Felt discovered yet another strange tablet.
And even farther in, he found the sprouts of the remaining cotton plants. With the Wonder Grow created by Viese, acquiring the fiber was simplicity itself.
And soon Felt and his new ally Gray were headed for Agito Cove with the cotton in hand.

Simsiltian: Gray, is that you?
Hey, buddy, hows it been?
Simsiltian: Oh, its going great! Im going to see the leader!
Gray, do you know these people?
Of course. Well, I used to at least.
Gray! My dear friend! You look well
And, I heard that you were caught by the Empire. So, this is their new form of torture
Yes, its called reality fables.
So, how is Noin?
Hey, everyone better be enjoying my cooking!
See for yourself
Noin was enthusiastically cooking away.
Just now. Felt brought me here.
Seems like nothings changed.
Heh heh, yep.
Oh, Gray, you came just in time for dinner. I bet yer real hungry.
N-No ! Im stuffed! Really!
Cmon, Felt! Dig in.
What ! This is supposed to be food?
I know it doesnt look appetizing, but the flavor is indescribable.
Blech!
Eat it all, now.
Theres so much
!
So, howd it taste?
I thought I was going to die
Oh, wow! It was that good, huh?
No, that bad.
Hmm, so thats why everyone runs after every meal
Hahaha. At least they eat it first.
And while Felt had gathered the necessary cloth, there was another larger problem to deal with.
Thank you. Youve been a great help, Phil.
How are the repairs going?
Great, were almost finished, however
?
Theres a crack in the tiller connecting the rudder to the wheel.
We cant sail the ship until that is fixed.
Oh kay.
Well, we arent stuck here from lack of trying.
Looks like well have to convince him.
Convince who?
The only person who can fix the ship
Problem is, hes obsessed with that damn sword. Sall he ever talks about.
Ill convince him, then.
its a waste of time. I should just wait here for you to come back
But, Id better go with you. It might help if he remembers me.
Great, thank you.
Okay, the old coot lives somewhere up on that mountain along the coastline.
And so Felt and Gray headed out to find this man who could repair the ship. Next time, well see what happened when they found him
