Finding Them
Ferry is supposed to fight ghosts at the Halloween festival, but she ends up playing with them instead. Lost Jack suddenly runs past with imperial soldiers in pursuit, so the crew chases him to find out what's happening.
Pumpkin Head 1: ...
Ferry: Hee-hee... Good boy.
Ferry: Whoa! Hey, don't jump at me like that!
Pumpkin Head 2: ...!
Vyrn: Sheesh... Are you sure you should be playing with these ghosts?
Ferry: Hmm... Not really.
Ferry: But they're surprisingly obedient when you treat them like this. (Captain), would you like to pet them?
(Captain) and company are at a Halloween festival to which they were invited by Sierokarte.
But before Ferry can fight the ghosts, they grow attached to her.
Pumpkin Head 1: ...
Ferry: Hey, quit it! I'm ticklish!
Lyria: Hee-hee... Ferry looks like she's having a good time!
Vyrn: Yeah, but I think Siero had something else in mind when she told us to enjoy the festival.
Vyrn: Heh-heh... Still, Ferry and the ghosts look like they're having fun, so maybe it's okay after all!
Ferry: Hee-hee...
Ferry: ...
Ferry: Say, (Captain), haven't you ever wondered?
Vyrn: Huh? What are you talking about?
Ferry: I often wonder where ghosts like these ones come from.
Ferry: How long do you think they've been like this?
Ferry: How many years or decades or centuries have they wandered the boundary between the two worlds?
Ferry: I used to be similarly lost and alone in that house on the misty island.
Vyrn: ...
Lyria: Um...
Ferry: Hey! What was that?
Imperial Soldier: It ran this way! Don't let it get away!
Vyrn: Yikes! What are imperial soldiers doing here?
Ferry: There's something wrong about this...
Ferry: I don't think Lost Jack is playing with them.
Lyria: This is bad! I don't know what's happening, but he looks frightened!
Ferry: We better just help him for now! We'll worry about the details later!
Finding Them: Scene 2
When the crew decides to stop the imperial soldiers from capturing Lost Jack, Ferry at first objects because she thinks it might be a chance for him and other ghosts to escape the world beyond. However, Lyria convinces her that obvious evil needs to be stopped, so she faces the soldiers.
(Captain) and company stand before the imperial soldiers to defend Lost Jack.
Vyrn: Hey! What do you guys think you're doing!
Imperial Soldier: You cursed skyfarers should really learn to mind your own business.
Imperial Soldier: Sigh... I mean, catching a primal beast is already hard enough without outside interference.
The frustrated soldier grips the ominous crystal he holds in his hand as he speaks.
Vyrn: No way! Is that dark essence?
Lyria: You can't be thinking of using it to capture Jack!
Ferry: ...
Imperial Soldier: That's right. He's apparently the ghost of a primal beast.
Lost Jack: ...
Imperial Soldier: Sigh... That's why they need to research him. Not that us soldiers know anything about that.
Vyrn: Tell it to someone who cares! If you think we're just gonna let you have your own way, you've—
Ferry: No, wait. Are you sure we should interfere?
Vyrn: Huh? What do you mean?
Ferry: This could be a chance for him and the other ghosts to change after being stuck for so long.
Ferry: Even Lost Jack might be able to pass on if that happens.
Vyrn: But Lyria said he feels afraid.
Ferry: Everyone resists change at first. Don't you remember how I pushed (Captain) and the rest of you away when we first met?
Ferry: But I eventually changed, and that's why I'm here now.
Ferry: Now I'm extremely grateful to all of you for helping me discover the outside world.
Ferry: So is it really our place to take that opportunity away from him and the rest of the ghosts?
Vyrn: ...
Lyria: I don't think any of us can answer that right now.
Lyria: But we can't just stand around and let something that's obviously wrong happen!
Ferry: ...
Ferry: Hee-hee... All right. (Captain) and the rest of you were pushy with me as well.
Ferry: I don't know if it's the right thing to do, but you did help me change, so I'm going to trust you.
Vyrn: Yeah! It's imperial goon gankin' time, (Captain)!
Finding Them: Scene 3
(Captain) and company defeat the imperial soldiers and save Lost Jack. Ferry says that, like Lost Jack, she'll continue to live at the boundary between two worlds, but that it's not so bad with friends by your side.
(Captain) and the crew defeat the imperial soldiers who were after Lost Jack.
Lost Jack: ...
Ferry: I still don't know if we did the right thing...
Lyria: Of course we did, Ferry! Everything will be all right! Lost Jack looks much happier now.
Ferry: Hee-hee... I guess you're right.
Ferry: Like Lost Jack and the rest of these ghosts, I can't age or die.
Ferry: So maybe I'll always exist on the boundary between two worlds.
Ferry: Still...
Ferry looks at (Captain) and smiles.
Ferry: Even though I didn't have the ability to go anywhere on my own...
Ferry: I found friends to help me get to where I need to be.
Ferry: As long as you're with me, maybe continuing to live on the boundary isn't so bad after all.
Ferry whispers those words as she watches Lost Jack disappear into the darkness.
As she gazes into the shadows, her eyes are no longer colored with sadness. Instead they sparkle with warmth and a sense of peace.
