(The airship begins to shake)

  • Laguna: Whoa! What's going on!?
  • Cid: I hope there aren't any numbskulls up on deck! If there are, hold on tight!
  • Laguna: Careful, Cid! Both hands on the wheel!
  • Setzer: Don't blame this one on the pilot.
  • Cecil: No question, that's the cause there.
  • Laguna: Where? Is that...a giant Torsion!?
  • Setzer: It seems someone wants our company. Talk about tacky invitations.
  • Cid: Exactly! At this rate, we'll be sucked in!
  • Cid: I can't shake it! If we're gonna be swallowed, it might as well be nose first!
  • Cid: I'm takin' her in!
  • Laguna: Hey, hey! You can't be serious!

(The party finds themselves inside a Torsion)

  • Cecil: Is this really someone's trap? There aren't even any monsters around...
  • Kam'lanaut: You will find no traps here. I have been waiting for you, warriors of the goddess.

(Kam'lanaut appears)

  • Setzer: Kam'lanaut... You were waiting for us? Do you enjoy kidnapping people by the airshipful?
  • Cid: Airships're full of delicate instruments, y'know! You're paying for anything broken!
  • Laguna: Yeah! And I was outside! You almost broke my neck!
  • Cid: Aww, you're tough. You can take a bump or two.
  • Setzer: Let's not make this any more complicated. Just keep quiet for a bit, please.
  • Laguna: Oh, right. It can wait. Let's find out what he wants.
  • Cecil: Eald'narche isn't with you?
  • Kam'lanaut: I have come to you to discuss a matter.
  • Setzer: "Come" to us? That's a funny way to put it when you dragged us in like that.
  • Setzer: I've about had it up to here after what you did to our airship. Care to explain?
  • Kam'lanaut: I need not answer you. Let us do battle.
  • Laguna: Well this is going nowhere. Talk about an unreasonable yahoo...
Point of Antagonism:
  • Kam'lanaut: ......
  • King: ...He's still standing, even after all we've thrown at him.
  • Lion: That just shows how desperate he is.
  • Snow: If you're tired, rest up in the back. I'll cover you!
  • Sabin: As will I. You won't see me lose in a battle of endurance.
  • Kam'lanaut: ...That's enough.
  • Snow: What's that?
  • Kam'lanaut: Continuing the fight is pointless. As long as there are traces of our fight, there will be no doubts.
  • Kam'lanaut: Take my coordinates. Use them as you see fit.
  • Lion: What!?
  • King: What was the point of antagonizing us? Was this some sort of charade?
  • Kam'lanaut: Say whatever you will.
  • Lion: You made fools of us... We were trying our hardest to defeat you!
  • Kam'lanaut: It would have been a problem had you not. If you had gone easy on me, I would have crushed you completely.
  • Snow: But why do you want to join us?
  • Kam'lanaut: How presumptuous. I am simply lending you a hand. I am not "joining" you.
  • King: Then why help us?
  • Kam'lanaut: To put it simply...
  • Kam'lanaut: To discern the intentions of Spiritus and his warriors, I must see things from Materia's side.
  • King: Spiritus's warriors... Including your brother Eald'narche.
  • Kam'lanaut: Yes. All of his warriors.
  • Kam'lanaut: I opened this Torsion with my own hands...
  • Kam'lanaut: Only those existences I permit may enter.
  • Snow: Does that mean you secretly wanted to become our ally? In that case, there was no need to fight.
  • Kam'lanaut: I suppose such lowly humans wouldn't understand.
  • Kam'lanaut: People will be suspicious if you emerge unharmed from a Torsion.
  • King: You don't want Spiritus's other warriors to suspect...
  • King: No. You want to avoid Eald'narche's suspicion.
  • Sabin: You really don't trust him? Even though he's your brother?
  • Kam'lanaut: It is because I trust him that I am being used.
  • King: So now you want to use us.
  • Kam'lanaut: Think of it as using each other.
  • King: And what will Eald'narche think if he saw you fighting beside us?
  • Kam'lanaut: It matters not. It is enough that I could contact you first.
  • Kam'lanaut: If not, it would have been difficult for us to talk.
  • Kam'lanaut: ...That is all. Do as you please.

(Kam'lanaut opens a Torsion for the party to exit, except Lion)

  • Lion: We don't trust you.
  • Kam'lanaut: The feeling is mutual.

(Lion exits into the Torsion)

Brotherly Thoughts:

(Kam'lanaut arrives from a Torsion to join Eald'narche)

  • Eald'narche: You failed, didn't you? I expected as much, but useless nevertheless.
  • Kam'lanaut: ......
  • Eald'narche: They hardly looked hurt. You should have tried harder.
  • Kam'lanaut: Choosing who will be of use is not easy.
  • Eald'narche: No matter. I care not as long as you stay out of my way.
  • Kam'lanaut: I have no intention of hindering you. But, in that case, I would like to hear everything from you.
  • Kam'lanaut: Why are you working with me, whom you once tossed aside?
  • Eald'narche: Trust in me, my little brother.
  • Kam'lanaut: ...I do.

  • Lyse: Just taking Kam'lanaut's coordinates isn't easy.
  • Lyse: He used our dark manikins for his own purposes, after all...
  • Mog: I know how you feel, kupo. I hate it when people mess with my pompom!
  • Sabin: It's hard to just accept it. You have a connection to him, right, Lion?
  • Lion: ...He's someone I could never trust.
  • Sabin: ......
  • Lyse: I don't quite understand, but...if we toss these aside just because we don't understand, we'll never know.
  • Lyse: This might be our chance.
  • Lion: Chance to what?
  • Lyse: To talk to him, properly. We might be able to learn something from him.
  • Lion: Gosh... You're a gutsy one, Lyse...
  • Lyse: I've been around all kinds of people, so I'm sure I've gotten it from them.
  • Lyse: You're curious about him, too, aren't you, Sabin?
  • Sabin: Yeah... Though I haven't thought it out as far as you.
  • Sabin: Kam'lanaut said he believed in Eald'narche, didn't he?
  • Lyse: It sounded a bit cynical if you ask me. Maybe it was his way of saying it.
  • Sabin: I think that's probably right. But I think he truly believed in him before.
  • Sabin: He believed in him, but something happened that changed that.
  • Sabin: I can't imagine what that's like. If I were betrayed by my brother...
  • Lyse: Edgar would never do something like that! You know that, right?
  • Sabin: Of course. But that's why I feel bad for him...
  • Sabin: Not that that excuses anything he's done. I'm not clear on it all anyway.
  • Sabin: ...He's an enemy to people from Lion's world, like Kefka is to us.
  • Sabin: And while I have no desire to understand Kefka...
  • Sabin: Kam'lanaut's from a different world, and I wonder if we might be able to understand and save him, is all.
  • Lyse: What do you think, Lion? You don't need to agree with us. We'll respect your opinion.
  • Lion: ...I just can't think anything good of him.
  • Lion: But, like you two said...something happened to him. If we have the chance to talk to him, maybe we can understand each other, and maybe he can change.
  • Sabin: It would be great if he could.
  • Shantotto: How naive you are to believe that change comes with such ease! Shall I teach you a simpler way to sway your prey?
  • Lyse: A simpler way?
  • Shantotto: If you wish his change to actualize, a pecking order you should devise.
  • Shantotto: I care not what you do, just that he's alive once you're through.
  • Shantotto: His existence will be of great assistance to my research. Ohohoho!
  • Sabin: I'm so glad she's on our side...
