Selphie leaned against the wooden railing of the
ship, and inhaled the scent of the sea. After 
almost an entire year in Trabia, it had been a 
long time since she'd smelled anything like it.

She was on her way a to one of the myriad of 
villages and towns dotting the coast of Centra.
The ship she was on ran supplies out to one of 
the towns every so often, and brought back skins,
pelts, and artifacts from Centra.

Dressed in her short yellow jump-suit, she was
standing at the side of the ship, enjoying the
wind.

*We'll be at the town before another hour has
passed.* Bahamut informed her. *From there, 
stock up on a tent, some potions, and whatever
countermeasures you think you're going to need.
Mannan is near the edge of the crater, and
you've a long journey ahead of you.*

*What exactly is in Mannan?* Selphie asked, 
peering over the edge of the railing. She
thought she could see a thin line off in the
distance that could be Port Centra, the
largest town in Centra.

*Sanctuary from your pursuit, for one.*
Bahamut replied. *Also, the ancient Centrans
left measures there just in case the Wisps
ever returned and the Shumi weren't there to
stop them.*

*There's still weapons in Centra?*

*Of a sort.* Bahamut replied cryptically.

Footsteps were easily visible on the light
stone of the floor. Elena and the rest of
her squad followed them easily, weapons at
the ready.
