"I'd bet my head on it! They definitely have it out for the Captain! We have to mobilize Hope Island's Navy and head straight for the Mist Sea!" Deep shouted excitedly.
"The crisis has barely passed, and you know exactly what's going on in the Abyss-Sea, don't you? Start a war now? Do you want Hope Island to collapse completely?"
"So what? Compared to the Captain, all this is nothing! We're hurting, and they're not going to be any better off!"

"I agree with that. Maybe the Captain just ran into something unexpected. Who knows, maybe after a while, he'll come back on his own, just like all those years ago."
