Reim territory, Katargo

  As Sin stood apart from Ja'far, Hina, Mystras, Drakon, and Sharrkan, he stood next to Sora and Masrur.

"Sinbad, are you sure?" Ja'far asked

"Yeah. I'm just escorting Masrur back to his hometown, so I'll be fine on my own. If we all go, we'll stand out too much."

"And I wanna see it!" Sora raised her hand, grinning from ear to ear.

"Please go on and return to Balbadd." As Sin said this, Ja'far didn't look convinced. However, his bubbly self came out. "We'll be on our way. Let's go, Masrur, Sora!" Before he could make a move, Ja'far grabbed his head.

"Wait a Minute, Sin."

Sin bended down to his level. "What is it, Ja'far?"

"Do you even know how to get to the Dark Continent?"

"Um, Well...we'll find it if we just head south, right?" Saying this, Sin was unsure and looked anywhere but Ja'far eyes.

"You think you can make it across the desert like that?!"

"It's fine! We'll figure it out."

"No you won't! You'll die lost in the desert somewhere!"

  As this argument continued, Sora and Masrur looked at each other. Sighing, he shook his head, however, Sora got an idea. As Ja'far was holding Sin's clock, trying to knock some sense into him, Sora interrupted them.

"How 'bout I just smell Mas and follow the scent?"

"You can really do that?!" Sin had sparkles in his eyes. Getting out of Ja'far's clutches, he bent down to her level and held her hands, clearly interested.

"Well, yeah. I do have dragon abilities in me, after all." It was obvious to her.

Ja'far on the other hand... "Absolutely not!" To prove his point, he made an X motion.

"Why not?" She tilted her head.

"W-well-"

"Looks like little Ja'far was thinking vulgar thoughts." Sin put a hand on his mouth, smiling almost like a menacing cat. Everyone continued to sweat drop. Ja'far walked up to Sin and fisted his clothing, ready to give him a good beating. Before this could continue, Sharrkan spoke up, hesitantly.

"Um, excuse me...if you're heading to the Dark Continent, I think it might be best to first search for the people of Torran in the south..." He held his staff tightly towards his chest, for eyes were all on him. "Their civilization is even more ancient than Heliohapt's...so I think they would know about the Dark Continent."

"The people of Torran." Drakon started 

"They're a small group of people that speak the Torran language... I heard that they're a mysterious people scattered throughout the world, but to think they have a village even in this remote region..." Seren finished

Sora was greatly interested in these Torran people. "Whoa! Sin can we meet these people?! Can We, please~?!" She started to beg.

"Sure!" Turning to Sharrkan, he patted him on the back with him between Sin and Ja'far. "Do you know how to get to that Torran village? Could you lead us there?"

"Y-yes..."

"What are you thinking?! You can't!" Ja'far pointed at Sin. "He's a prince of Heliohapt! And he's still just a child... You can't endanger his life like that!"

"Aren't ya still a 'child', Ja'far?"

"W-well...yes...but you are too, Sora, and a girl at that!"
