Gondolier: “Hello there! Need a lift to the city? Hop on this Gondola right here.”

Rover: “This boat is... an Echo?”

Gondolier: “Correct! In Ragunna, we sail in Echoes. They are trusted and reliable helpers, gifts from divinity. A third of a Ragunnesi's life is spent on a Gondola. Pretty amazing, right? This little one will get you there safe and sound.”

Rover and Abby board the Gondola heading toward Ragunna.

Abby: “I didn't know all the ships in Ragunna are Echoes. That troupe isn't as special as I thought... Now I can't even imagine what kind of Echoes we might see in the city.”

Rover: “Maybe we'll come across some that look like you, a whole pack of them.”

Abby: “You're kidding me... Even in the Land of Echoes, I, Abby, will always be the most special one! Hic!”

Abby returns to the palm of Rover's hand.

Serious Acolyte: “...Approved. Welcome to Rinascita.”

As Rover approaches the entrance, she is stopped by an Acolyte of the Order of Ragunna.

Serious Acolyte: “Excuse me. First-time visitors must cooperate for inspection. Is this... a Reserved Terminal? Reserved Terminals should be declared upon entry. May I see your declaration form, please?”

Rover: “...I didn't know about that.”

Serious Acolyte: “These are the rules. I'll need you to cooperate.”

Senior Acolyte: “Forgive the inconvenience. By the Order's decree, all visitors must undergo customs clearance to ensure safety... Or, do you have a guarantor?”

Rover shows the invitation letter

Serious Acolyte: “Ah, I see you are a guest of the Montelli family. You are granted permission to bring your Reserved Terminal into Rinascita. We apologize for any trouble caused. All Echoes, even those in Reserved Terminals, are seen as Divine Envoys. Once they are baptized, they too will receive Imperator's blessings.”

Rover: “Does that mean I can see the Sentinel in person?”

Senior Acolyte: “Naturally! We are all ‘united’ under the Sentinel's influence, free from ‘division’. The Sentinel is with you, me—all of us. Their presence is eternal in our hearts, guiding us always...”

???: “Preach with respect and patience, lest you induce doubt and confusion.”
