Story Quests/World 3: Endless Blue/Chef Alk
With their work finally behind them, Marina and the Crimson Blades join Alk and the others for a celebratory feast. Completely enamored by Alk's cooking prowess, Marina attempts to recruit him as a chef for the Crimson Blades, but Alk has no intention of ending his journey with Light and Stella yet,
Marina: Mmm, MMM! Nothing like good eatin' after a hard day's work, right? Alk, gimme seconds!
Alk: Coming right up!
Nimbus: You're really goin' to town, huh?
Stella: Alk's cooking is exquisite.
Nimbus: Why don't you ever help him?
Stella: The culinary arts and I are highly incompatiable.
Nimbus: Not even gonna try, huh...
Marina: You ever thought about becoming the head chef for a pirate ship, Alk?
Alk: Nah. Cooking's just a side hoobby.
Alk: And I'm not ready to end this journey just yet.
Marina: Heh. Looks like my headhunting skills need a little work.
Light: *nom nom* M' and I wiwl mot haand my comwade abah to a band owf bwigands.
Alk: Do all champions talk with their mouth full?
Light: ...Sorry.
Stella: Marina. Might I request some information?
Marina: On? Oh right... The World Flipper!
Marina: For years I've been looking for it... A door that once connected this land to other worlds, before the sea consumed everything.
Marina: The World Flipper's said to reach beyond the stars and open on to all the knowledge in the universe...
Marina: A device to transcend dimensions.
Alk: Dimensions?
Marina: You know... world hopping? What you guys did.
Marina: Fall out of the sky and land smackdab in the middle of the ocean. I got here the same way, actually.
Light: You've used the World Flipper?
Marina: Not exactly... Let's just say I'm a bit of a drifter. And there's no shortage of drifters in this world.
Stella: So you wish to return to your original world?
Marina: Something like that. We have the same goals, so how about we join forces?
Lean Pirate: But Cap'n... We've searched for so long and still have nothin'.
Burly Pirate: Ain't it about time we call it quits?
Marina: Shut it! I've got a good feeling about this time!
Marina: What's it gonna be? Sink or swim?
Light: We are no friends to corsairs?
Alk: Aww... Come on, Light.
Light: But we ARE friends to Marina and the Crimson Blades.
Nimbus: That's fine by me. I don't have any problems with pirates, either.
Stella: Then it's settled. We'll be happy to join you, Marina.
Alk: Oh, man... We're going on an actual treasure hunt with pirates!
Marina: You bet your dungbie, Alk! X marks the spot- and that spot is the World Flipper!
Marina: We'll sail for the northern seas! The most treacherous waters! And you're all coming with us!
Marina: This calls for a celebration, mateys! Drink up!
