Carver: Ahoy, we're finally in Somnia! Er, I mean the other Somnia – the one in this world. 

Milly: This seems to be a rather lively place!

Carver: This place is just like our Somnia. No, wait, it's nothin' like our Somnia. Wait... It's like it is, but it ain't!

Milly: I wonder how exactly the two Somnias are connected...

Carver: I see the castle up ahead. Good to know it's in the same place.

Milly: A second Somnia...

Carver: Aye, sounds like a Somnian dog, alright.

Milly: He seems like a lively pup!

Carver: Chancellor who? We're out of the loop in this Somnia.

Milly: I sense that this Chancellor Keating doesn't enjoy the best reputation among the townspeople here.

Carver: A prince, aye...? Our Somnia didn't have one of those.

Milly: I wonder if Murdaw is one of the monsters this prince went off to fight?

Carver: Oh, hardy har! That's funny!

Carver: Imagine you, Hero, bein' mistaken for a royal prince!

Milly: Sounds like you're a dead ringer for the local prince, Hero!

Carver: Maybe it's time for a royal makeover, Hero. If you've got it, flaunt it.

Milly: Hee hee. Ever fancied being prince for a day, Hero?

Carver: Heh... Bet if I put on some fancy threads, folks would start mistakin' me for the King!

Milly: I hope your outfit's not going to cause anyone any trouble, Hero...

Carver: Keating, aye? Even the name sounds rotten. It rhymes with...er, somethin' bad, I think.

Milly: Chancellor Keating... I sense we should be wary of this man.

Carver: Not just wells. Giant holes in the ground'll do the job, too.

Milly: Hmm. I suppose most ordinary people wouldn't consider climbing into a well in the first place...

Carver: So the King and Queen are both sick now?

Milly: It would appear that this Somnia has a queen...

Milly: It really is different to the Somnia in your world, isn't it, Hero.

Carver: Hmm... So Murdaw's lookin' to conquer this world, too? We'd better go and see the King, pronto!

Milly: Murdaw's influence has spread even here...

Carver: Whoa, Hero. This isn't good. Let's go round to the business end.

Milly: How rude of us...

Carver: Crikey! Does anyone NOT fear this Keating fella?

Milly: Keating... We need to keep an eye on him.

Carver: Guess we'll need to go straight to the source for answers – the castle itself.

Milly: Maybe we should speak to those inside the castle to try and shed some light on what's going on here.

Carver: Wait... The King's “not young”?

Milly: So the King Somnus here is an old man...?

Carver: Our Somnia ain't perfect, but it's nowhere near this bad.

Milly: All this talk of the missing prince is making me terribly anxious...

Carver: Ah, it happens. Me, I can't even remember what I ate for lunch yesterday.

Milly: You probably seem familiar to him because you look so much like this land's prince.

Carver: This guy must have really been somebody in the dim and distant past, aye?

Carver: Maybe the monsters cast a super-size version of Snooze on the royal couple.

Milly: Working out the cause of the King and Queen's slumber can't possibly be an easy task...

Carver: The King of the Sea, aye? I'll bet he never gets seasick.

Milly: A king living beneath the sea? That's rather romantic!

Carver: The King of the Sea's got himself quite a palace, that's for sure!

Milly: If only all monsters were like this slime. The world would be conflict-free...

Carver: Looks like castles are tough to enter in any dimension, aye?

Milly: Our destiny lies within the castle... But how are we going to get inside, Hero?

Carver: Ya know, Hero, I hate lyin' as much as the next wanderin' martial artist...

Carver: But maybe ya should try pretendin' to be the Prince for a bit?

Milly: You do look just like the Prince, you know. You've fooled everyone we've met so far...

Carver: It worked! Well, ain't that sweet, “Prince”.

Milly: Come on, Hero. He's moved out of the way – now's our chance to enter the castle!

Carver: Rusty, aye? He certainly looks familiar.

Milly: What is it, Hero? Have you met the Captain before?

Carver: He's right – things look grim. But chattin' about the weather ain't gonna fix anythin'.

Milly: It must be Murdaw... His influence is growing.

Carver: You're a king at this prince business, Hero.

Milly: Come, Hero. Now that we're in, let's try talking to a few people in the castle.

Carver: All that sleepin' can't be good for the King and Queen.

Carver: Their muscles'll shrivel up if they sleep forever.

Milly: Surely there must be some way to wake them...

Carver: Uh-oh. This kid's seein' right through ya, Hero. Quick, say somethin' royal!

Milly: This child is sharp. Dream seers often claim that innocent eyes are best equipped to see the truth.

Carver: Must be nice bein' a royal cat. Probably gets three feasts a day.

Milly: What an adorable little kitty!

Carver: Whoa, that's some spicy soup! If that won't wake up the King, nothin' will.

Milly: The castle's inhabitants all seem deeply concerned about King Somnus.

Carver: Readin' books about stayin' awake would put me right to sleep.

Milly: It seems they've tried all sorts of methods to get the King to wake up, but to no avail.

Carver: What was he mumblin' about at the end there?<br>
Tell who?

Milly: Ugh. These cells are all damp and horrible.

Carver: I can't wait to see the look on this Keating fella's face, either.

Milly: It seems like this Chancellor Keating fellow won't exactly welcome the return of the Prince...

Carver: Whoa, he's crying tears of joy. Maybe we took this royal ruse a little far...

Milly: The people of Somnia seem to love their prince just as much as their king.

Carver: The Prince of Somnia was a popular guy, aye?

Milly: My, it seems everyone was on tenterhooks awaiting the return of the Prince.

Carver: Well, as long as he doesn't take us out to the front and give us the boot.

Milly: Chancellor Keating's away at the moment, it seems.

Carver: Well, uh... Maybe the Prince is too tired to chat right now. Long road 'n everything like that.

Milly: Interesting. So the Prince has been off trying to find a way to wake his parents.

Carver: Small hamlet in the northern mountains? That sounds like Weaver's Peak, aye, Hero?

Carver: I wonder what this world's version is like...

Carver: Oh well... We'll just have to wait.

Milly: This gives us a good opportunity to gather more information from the people around the castle.

Carver: Let's go, Hero! ...Oh, er, I mean Prince Hero. Hope no one heard me say that...

Milly: Shall we, Your Highness? Hee hee!

Carver: This Keating fella's created a really hostile work environment.

Milly: Up the stairs we go, my liege!

Carver: Er...yeah. Let's go with that.

Milly: Hopefully he won't be too let down when he finds out the truth...

Carver: Somethin' tells me this Keating guy won't be giving you the warmest welcome, sweet “Prince”.

Milly: I sense it would be wise to have a look at the King before Chancellor Keating returns.

Carver: Watchin' that whole exchange made me a little happier, too.

Milly: He doesn't need to thank us. The Prince is a very kind man!

Carver: Aye, he's asleep, alright.

Milly: His aura doesn't suggest any suffering...

Carver: Mirror? She said “mirror”, aye? Aye!?

Milly: Mirror...? That must be Ra's mirror she's talking about.

Carver: Uh, I don't think this lady gets it...

Milly: I'm sure she must be talking about Ra's mirror.<br>
But why....?

Carver: Geh...

Milly: So this is Keating in action...

Carver: He's got a point. We should be glad we're only gettin' the heave-ho, aye?

Milly: Don't worry, Hero. Our fate clearly lies elsewhere for now.

Carver: North-west, then south-east? Sounds like a pretty loopy route to me...

Carver: Not like we have any other options, now that we got kicked out. Amor's as good a destination as any.

Milly: The mirror key? I wonder if that has some connection to Ra's mirror...

Carver: The water from Amor can “cure anything”?

Carver: Maybe it could wake up the King... Could it be that easy?

Milly: I've heard of the miraculous healing qualities of amor seco essence.

Milly: Apparently, it's known to be more effective than medicinal herbs.

Carver: Let's go somewhere else, Hero. I doubt the castle'll have us back any time soon.

Carver: I'm gettin' sick of the scenery here, anyway.

Milly: At least we got a look at the royal family before being thrown out of the castle.

Carver: Oh, aye! We, uh, agree. Lock the phony up!<br>
(Back away very slowly, Hero.)

Milly: Hee hee. It would appear that our antics are the talk of the town.

Carver: Our hopes were dashed, too! Not like hers, but...

Milly: I'm beginning to feel bad about getting everyone's hopes up...

Carver: Ugh... I wish we could explain our side of the story...

Milly: Hee hee. Whether it's that world or this, one thing's for sure – rumours really do spread quickly!

Carver: Aye, the king in this Somnia is no spring chicken.

Milly: Finding Ra's mirror could turn out to be the key to waking the King and Queen.

Carver: Amor, aye? Why don't we check it out? Not like we've got anythin' better to do.

Milly: To find Amor, we go north-west from here, then make our way around the mountains and head back south-east. Sounds easy enough, no?

Carver: Buck up, man. With us on the case, Murdaw's days are numbered.

Milly: It pains me to see people in such distress... But it's up to us to ease their anxieties, and soon!

Carver: Let's go, Hero! No way are we missin' Amor now!

Milly: This salesman really takes his work seriously!

Carver: I'd love the chance to line up you and the Prince next to each other someday, Hero.

Milly: It seems the Prince lives on as a child in this gentleman's memory.

Carver: See, Hero? C'mon, let's go somewhere else!

Milly: Barring exceptional circumstances, I sense we won't be allowed within the castle walls again for a while.
