Carver: So this is the place, aye? It ain't quite how I imagined it.

Milly: Let's stay alert.

Ashlynn: What's that smell?

(sniff) It smells...wet.

Nevan: Is there someone waiting in the depths of this cave?

Amos: I've got a funny feelin' about this place.

And not funny in a good way, either...

Carver: Avast! Where's the Prince!?

Milly: I think the Prince has run off again...

Ashlynn: Argh! He's done it again!

Nevan: We seem to have mislaid the Prince.

Let's retrace our steps.

Amos: Eh!? No Prince!?

Carver: Crikey! That slippery devil!

Milly: He's off... I sense that finding him again will be quite the ordeal...

Ashlynn: Ugh! What have I done to deserve that little sneak? I'm a good person, right?

Nevan: Outsmarted once again! Let's head back and find the recalcitrant royal.

Amos: Don't tell me it's back to the starting line once again!?

Carver: Goddess knows if he's back here or not, but...

Milly: Where could he have got to this time?

Ashlynn: Ugh! I've had it up to here with that stupid Prince!

Nevan: My patience is fraying...

Amos: Which nook or cranny is the Prince lurkin' in now?

Carver: Could the Prince've slipped by that fella? Probably not, aye?

Milly: Hmm. What shall we do? We know he's not here – that's a start, I suppose...

Milly: The people in the castle might know where Howard likes to run off to. Shall we ask around?

Ashlynn: There's only one way into this castle, right? So that means he's not here...

Nevan: So Prince Howard hasn't returned.

Nevan: Yet, I feel there may be some clue here.

Nevan: We haven't much time, but perhaps speaking to a few folks in the castle would be a good idea.

Amos: So Prince Howard's givin' the castle a wide berth.

Carver: Ain't no point askin' that guy about the Prince, aye?

Milly: That chap's got caves on the brain...

Ashlynn: Not all monsters are horrible. Some of them are horribly cute!

Nevan: I confess that I am often filled with dread at the prospect of encountering monsters.

Nevan: But the only way to overcome your fears is to face them head on.

Amos: Old Amos can't afford to be afraid of monsters – I'd end up scared of myself!

Carver: Love ain't just blind – it's dumb, too.

Milly: Prince Howard probably offers to show his armour to all the girls...

Milly: But I sense that he has a soft spot for this one.

Ashlynn: You think if we wait long enough, the Prince'll show up here to put the moves on her?

Nevan: Perhaps I have something to learn from Prince Howard when it comes to impressing women...

Amos: I bet no one's interested in old Amos's armour collection...

Carver: That's a good question. How many times do ya think? A hundred-ish?

Milly: We'll do whatever it takes this time!

Ashlynn: That sneaky Prince missed his calling. He would make a great thief!

Nevan: The last thing we want is to help the Prince break his dubious record.

Amos: I just hope this is the last time.

Carver: Pretend this never happened? Crikey, we're ready to join in the chorus!

Milly: Expressing one's feelings in song is an excellent stress-reliever.

Ashlynn: Pretend this never happened? Why? That sounded like a surefire hit! 

Nevan: I'd very much like to hear how that ballad continues...

Amos: Just hearin' that rhyme takes the wind right out of my sails, I tell you.

Carver: Crikey, that guy really likes puttin' us on the spot, aye?

Milly: If that soldier didn't see him, it's unlikely that the Prince was in here.

Ashlynn: Oh, we're going to look after him, alright!

Nevan: Let's plunge a little deeper into the castle and see what we find.

Amos: We need to find that Prince!

Carver: You wanna see the King right now, Hero? Eh, I dunno...

Milly: The King and Queen are sure to be anxious.

Ashlynn: I'm in no hurry to see the King – especially without the Prince at our side.

Nevan: While I feel that we owe the King a visit, I go with a heavy heart.

Amos: Hero – can we just show our faces upstairs then head back out?

Carver: I tell ya, he needs to stock up on shut-eye while we're explorin' the cave.

Milly: That poor man is still awake!?

Ashlynn: Why's that guy so tired when Prince Howard isn't? I thought they stayed up all night playing cards together?

Nevan: In this exhausted state, I doubt he'd notice the Prince if he walked right past him.

Amos: That lad's shakin' like a leaf!

Carver: Looks like the kitchen's closed, aye?

Milly: Unfortunately the situation means the exact opposite for us.

Ashlynn: After dealing with the Prince all this time, I'd say she deserves a break today.

Nevan: I believe it would be safe to assume that the Prince will not be returning in time for dinner.

Amos: I can't wait to get this royal rite over and done with!

Carver: I wonder if these two ever stop their bellyaching.

Carver: Good thing the Prince ain't with us...

Milly: He's getting well ahead of himself. We need to get the Prince to the cave first.

Ashlynn: I guess Prince Howard isn't here after all.

Nevan: Once the Prince has undergone the rite, he'll be considered worthy of taking the throne.

Nevan: ...A worrying proposition, indeed...

Amos: I doubt Prince Howard would be hangin' round here.

Carver: I'd like to find out, too. Let's catch that Prince!

Milly: Let's get the Prince and witness this mysterious rite.

Ashlynn: Hey, are we done here yet? Let's track down that Prince.

Nevan: It seems Prince Howard never stays in the cave long enough for anyone to witness the actual rite.

Amos: I hope we get to witness the rite sometime this century...

Carver: No Prince here...

Milly: He's not in here...

Ashlynn: What if he was just asleep in his own room right now? Wouldn't that be rich.

Nevan: No sign of him...

Amos: Maybe if we left a barrel out with some food in it...

Carver: That fella doesn't seem fazed by any of this.

Carver: We'd better keep searchin'. He's either here or in Howsworth!

Milly: He's known the Prince from when he was a toddler, so he must be familiar with his antics.

Milly: Let's try searching the places he mentioned.

Ashlynn: Hey, that was a clue, right? Not a very specific clue, but a clue...

Nevan: That narrows the focus of our search somewhat.

Amos: So he's either in the castle or over in Howsworth. Let's get him!

Carver: He ain't back, aye?

Milly: He can't be in here. The doorman would've seen him.

Ashlynn: Nobody's home. I figured it wouldn't be that easy.

Nevan: Perhaps we'd better look beyond the castle walls.

Amos: No Prince? Why aren't I surprised...?

Carver: Not in here...but I expected as much.

Milly: There's no way he's here.

Ashlynn: Same old story, huh?

Nevan: It would be quite a risk for the Prince to come here.

Amos: This is another Howard-free zone...

Carver: I just don't know what to say to these folks any more.

Milly: His aura doesn't suggest he'd take too kindly to questions regarding the Prince's whereabouts...

Ashlynn: You could store armour in the bags under the Chancellor's eyes. The stress is finally getting to him. 

Nevan: As those entrusted with the Prince's welfare,

we have little choice but to find him ourselves.

Amos: Let's find ourselves a Prince!

Carver: I don't care about his future – I care about his present. And presently, he's missin'!

Milly: The intensity of the Queen's love for her son is plain to see.

Ashlynn: Maybe he'll make a good king someday, but he sure makes a lousy prince right now!

Nevan: I would agree that the Prince's detractors do tend to exaggerate...

Amos: He might make a fine king one day, but he's no great shakes in the prince stakes...

Carver: Orders are orders, aye? Let's wrangle the Prince and march him back to the cave.

Milly: Thank the Goddess that the King didn't start interrogating us about his son's whereabouts.

Ashlynn: Somehow I don't think his mom's worries will end once the Prince is purified.

Nevan: We'd best expand the search. Onwards!

Amos: My heart's racin'! Old Amos gets a tad nervous in front of royalty.
