Scene 1: Zeruhn Mines
Drake Fang: Ah, you are the one we sent to Zepwell Island. I'm surprised you were so successful in revealing the true colors of that imposter.
Drake Fang: In any case, I just received a message stating that Sir Iron Eater is currently on his way here.
Iron Eater: I'm sorry about giving you all this extra work, Drake Fang. So, have there been any more complaints about not opening the Korroloka Tunnel to the public?
Drake Fang: I wish there were not, but we cannot allow civilians into such a dangerous place.
Iron Eater: People assume that locked doors always hide secrets, and there is little we can do to change that perception. We need to get that investigation report finished as soon as possible...
Iron Eater: I was supposed to accompany the expeditionary trip to Zepwell Island myself, but I was worried about the happenings in the Mines District.
Iron Eater: It's almost like all the residents' discontent and hatred have come to a dangerous boil...
Iron Eater: And there is one other thing...something that Zeid said. It was like he was predicting the arrival of the true Talekeeper.
Iron Eater: In any case, I'm leaving this next expedition to you. This is not official, but we have heard that Werei had set off for the Kuftal Tunnel.
Iron Eater: We want you to go to the tunnel, find proof that he had been there, and bring it back to Drake Fang.
Scene 2: Zeruhn Mines
Drake Fang: Well, it looks like Werei left a message on this piece of wood. This is an important find in our investigation.
Drake Fang: Good. Now for--what? Is anything wrong, Foreman Makarim?
Makarim: Come quick! The Galka from he Mines District have forced their way up to the entrance of the mine!
Drake Fang: What!?
Scene 3: Bastok Mines
Deidogg: Why are only adventurers allowed in the Korroloka Tunnel!? How long must we Galka live in the confines of that cramped Hume-hole!?
Pavvke: We mineworkers refuse to be tools of the government!
Drangord: You only let adventurers pass because there's something down there you don't want us Galka to know about!
Parraggoh: We're sick of being lied to by you Humes!
Mydon: H-hey, calm down...okay?
Amar: We're just keeping the tunnel closed to protect you...
Davyad: Huh!? How long do you think you can fool us!?
Iron Eater: What is going on here!?
Detzo: Sir Iron Eater! You must do something. If they would only open this tunnel to us, and not just adventurers, there wouldn't be any problem.
Iron Eater: Do these fools understand what they're saying?
Detzo: Oh! It's Gumbah!
Gumbah: Stop it! All of you!
Gumbah: When are you going to wake up and realize what you are doing is foolish!?
Gumbah: What is at the end of the Korroloka Tunnel? You already know! Nothing but desert! Do you still wish to believe that that is where we belong?
Gawful: Get out of here, child!
Echo Hawk: Big talk for such a little kid! So, what are you saying? You've been there?
Gumbah: One hundred years ago...I have.
Babenn: One hundred years ago!? You've only been around for twenty.
Gumbah: When Werei and I were still young, we snuck by the guards...
Gumbah: When we got through to the other side of the tunnel, all we saw was a vast desert and some sandy ruins.
Gumbah: Is that what you want to call home? Even if you were able to defeat the thousands of Antican warriors, would you really want to live in a place like that?
Gumbah: But don't you already know the answer? When did the Talekeeper have to start making the decisions for everyone?
Detzo: Gumbah...
Iron Eater: Wait... You can't be...
Gumbah: Let me ask you! Are you willing to go to battle with the Antica just to divert your anger from the Humes?
Gumbah: Let me ask you! Do you really think that our home lies in that wasteland on the other side of this tunnel?
Gumbah: Let me ask you! Do we Galka really need a Talekeeper to remember the past?
Gumbah: Yes, there will be days when conflict will arise between us and the Humes. The world seen through their eyes is much different than the world seen through ours.
Gumbah: However, the same is true for all Galka. We all look at the world in a different way. No one in this world is exactly alike.
Gumbah: But there is one thing that can be said, and that is that we are all living together on this planet, Vana'diel. There is nothing that can change that.
Gumbah: Of course people are going to have different morals and ideals, but we all must learn to live together. There is only one Vana'diel!
Gumbah: The Galka future does not lie out in a desert. Bastok is our home!
Gumbah: Raogrimm, Werei, Zeid...they are all gone. However, we no longer need a Talekeeper to remember our past. We can do it ourselves--together.
Gumbah: There is no reason for any of you to rely on a kid who had the rotten luck of getting stuck with two hundred years of memories.
Gumbah: However, if it will help, I will try to do anything that I can--even if it means keeping two centuries of memories.
Gumbah: If that will show you that you don't need a Talekeeper to live happy lives...
Detzo: Gumbah...
Gumbah: Ha ha. It's been a while since I talked like an adult. It's pretty draining.
Gumbah: Now you can rest in peace...Werei...Raogrimm...
