Story Quests/World 4: Fang Canyon/New Management
Anger subdued, Whitetail leaves Nimbus a ring that unlocks the World Flipper, proving his identity. The catfolk replace their chief with Claw, who sees off the party as they depart for the next world.
Whitetail's Ghost: NGH... GRRR! GRAAAARGH!
Whitetail's Ghost: SE...LEN...IUS... SELENIUUUS!
Nimbus: I'm not "Selenius."
Nimbus: Name's Nimbus. Just Nimbus.
Whitetail's Ghost: SELEN... IUS... R-run...
Nimbus: A ring?
Nimbus: "Stars shall sing... for ye who hold this ring..."
Alk: This light's... familiar...
Claw: Wait for me!
Alk: I knew it! That glow was from the World Flipper!
Claw: Whoa... This thing's CRAZY! No wonder you guys are known as Godkings!
Nimbus: It's pretty damn good proof of who I am.
Claw: Yeah. So... mind helping a bro out, one last time?
Nimbus: Sure. Just tell me what you need me to do!
Claw: Same as last time. Shut up, look pretty, and leave all the talking to me!
Nimbus: Hah. Watch it, smartass. You're talkin' to a prince.
Claw: YOU watch it, or I'll start using biiig fancy court words.
Claw: ...The Godking Selenius Whitetail wishes for peace. Chief, will you sign the treaty?
Chief: A ring is no proof of royalty. You must've scavenged it from the graveyard.
Claw: Even after all this, you still won't cooperate... Fine. You leave me no choice.
Claw: You are now dismissed from your role as chief of the catoflk.
Chief: Dismissed?!
Claw: Even have it in writing! The one on the left's your notice of dismissal, and the one on the right's proof of MY appointment!
Claw: All the clans have signed them! The bombays, angoras, tabbies, calicos, panthers, and event eh tigers!
Chief: Is this your idea of a joke?!
Chief: What of the pain we endured?! The indignities?!
Claw: Those are YOUR grudges, not ours! We shouldn't have to fight a war for them!
Claw: Please, Grampa. Please. I don't know what else to tell you.
Nimbus: No one wants to fight but you.
Nimbus: You carried this village through some rough times, but it's over now. You've done enough.
Nimbus: It's about time you got some rest. Right... "Gramp-gramp"?
Chief: ...Se-Selenius?
Claw: Everything'll be fine, Grampa! Just kick back, relaaax, and leave the rest to me!
Stella: Initializing synchronization.
Alk: What was that, Light? You glowed for a second there.
Light: It was faint, but I felt some of my old power.
Alk: You and Stella's starchart HAVE to share some kind of connection then. So... did you find Light's world, Stella?
Stella: No. Light's world is not in this region.
Alk: *sigh* Well, guess that would've been TOO easy...
Nimbus: Hey, there's no rush. This is what we want anyways, right? Fill in the starchart, get Light up and running again.
Claw: Yeah! Slow and steady wins the race!
Nimbus: Claw, Albert... What are you two doing here?
Claw: Just swinging by to see you off. Man, I can't BELIEVE you were telling the truth about there being other worlds and stuff. That was AWESOME!
Albert: I trust you weren't thinking of slipping off before we got a chance to thank you properly.
Alk: Nimbus rushed us over. You know how bashful he gets.
Nimbus: Can it. I thought we should hurry, that's all.
Claw: Bro... You're not gonna stay in the canyon?
Nimbus: Nah. I'm not cut out to be a king.
Nimbus: Sides, I'd just get in your way. Right, "Chief"?
Claw: That's true!
Albert: Regardless of where your journey takes you, we'll never forget the great service you've done these lands.
Albert: You have our deepest gratitude, and I vow we shall one day repay the debt in kind!
Claw: Yeah! I'm really glad I got to meet you, bro!
Claw: And I'm not just buttering you up. I mean it!
Nimbus: Yeah, yeah, suuure.
Nimbus: It's gonna be weird havin' some peace and quiet again.
Light: That is no way to talk to friends.
Light: ...There is no debt between us. Without your aid, we would never have found the World Flipper... and Nimbus would not have learned who he truly is.
Stella: Thank you for taking care of us.
Alk: I hope the truce goes well. We're all rooting for you!
Nimbus: Heh. I'm sure everything'll be fine with them in charge.
Nimbus: See ya! And... thanks!
Claw: Right back at you, bro.
Nimbus: Let's go- to the next world!
