Longing for Adventure
One day, an energetic girl named Carren boards the Grandcypher. She says she's tired of her research as a mage and now wants to travel the world as a skyfarer. As one of her relatives, Eugen doesn't want to leave her behind, so he helps her join the crew.
One day after completing a mission, the crew boards the airship and is about to depart.
Rackam: Let's get going! I'll be in the engine room, so call me if you need anything.
But before Rackam can start up the airship...
Girl's Voice: Wait!
Eugen: What's with all the yelling? And who's this girl?
???: There's someone named Eugen in this crew, right?
Eugen: I'm Eugen, but why do you care?
???: For real? I'm Carren Estapera!
Eugen: Estapera? So that makes you one of my second cousin's kids?
Rackam: Hey, do you know this girl, Eugen?
Eugen: Based on her age, I think she might be either the daughter or granddaughter of a second cousin.
Eugen: So what do you want, Carren?
Carren: I actually have a favor I'd like to ask of you, Eugen...
With that, Carren tells the crew her life story.
Carren: I want to see the world! But my family wants me to take over the family business...
Carren: You see, I come from a long line of mages, but I feel like I've been doing nothing but research forever.
Eugen: I see. So you're sick of being cooped up all the time.
Carren: That's right! I'm more of the great-outdoors type, and that means I should be a skyfarer!
Carren: Actually, one of my uncles is a skyfarer! He uses an island as a base of operations, and I know I could do that!
Carren: Magical research is important and all, but getting out there to see the world is more important to me!
Carren: And I'm sure what I learn would aid my magical research as well. But my parents keep telling me it's too dangerous...
Rackam: I see... but they have a point about the dangers of being a skyfarer. We get into some bad situations.
Carren: No problem! Swordsmanship's a specialty of mine. With my sword and a little magic, I can take on four or five ruffians at once!
As she says this, a vivid red flame erupts from her unsheathed sword, coiling around the blade like a snake.
Rackam: Whoa... That's amazing...
Carren: I can take care of myself, I have what it takes to be a skyfarer, and I think I'm on the right track.
Carren: Just thinking of all the places I'll visit as a skyfarer is so exciting...
Carren: I'll complete missions, eat delicious foods from exotic islands, and maybe even buy some stylish clothes while I'm at it.
Rackam: Hold it, girl. You seem to be confusing our journey with sightseeing.
Rackam: Your parents are right to be opposed if you have an attitude like that.
Eugen: You're obviously not so good at listening to them though...
Eugen: But that's not my problem. Time for you to go home, Carren.
Carren: No way! I don't want to go back!
Eugen leaves the rest of the crew on the airship and drags Carren by the hand to her parents' house.
A little while later...
Carren: I'm back!
Rackam: But aren't you supposed to be at home?
Carren: That was the initial plan, but Eugen had a talk with my parents!
Carren: Good thing my parents know him! They ended up giving me permission to go on an adventure.
Eugen: Yeah, but only on the condition that I look after you.
Rackam: Hold it... Are you serious?
Eugen: I can't really help it. Looking at Carren reminds me of my own daughter's rebellious phase.
Eugen: And if I just let this tomboy do as she pleases, nothing good will come of it.
Carren: What? Eugen, did you say something?
Eugen: No, it's nothing really. Now why don't you introduce yourself to (Captain), our captain.
Eugen: Okay, Captain... Do you mind if I take Carren with us? I can't just let her go off on her own.
Choose: Do what you have to do.
Carren: Ha-ha! Yay! Nice to meet you, Captain!
Eugen: Hey, that went well. Sorry about everything, (Captain). I owe you one.
Choose: Sure. She can start by swabbing the deck.
Carren: What? You're going to make me clean all of a sudden, without so much as a welcome party?
Eugen: You should just be happy the captain accepted you! Now hop to it!

Carren: So you're the captain? But aren't you about the same age as me?
Carren: I expected the person in charge of Eugen's crew to be a bit more sinister!
Eugen: Hey! What do you mean by that?
Carren: Just look at yourself! An eye-patch, scary face, and muscles! You look like a boss of knaves, Eugen!
Eugen: Ugh!
Rackam: Ha-ha! Looks aside, the captain's more reliable than you might think!
Carren: But if you're a captain at that age... maybe it will be my turn one day soon!
Eugen: Hey now... It's a little soon for you to be saying that...
Carren: Yeah... That's right. Right now I should focus on being the acting captain!
Eugen: Good grief... You obviously don't get it.
Thus another member joins (Captain)'s crew.
Everyone's a little uneasy about the new girl calling herself the acting captain, but the Grandcypher lifts off nevertheless.
