No Visions Allowed!

A short while after (Captain) and Arulumaya spend a relaxing day together, the crew arrives on an island Arulumaya once saved for a festival in her honor. After being presented with a handmade gown by the crew, Arulumaya renews her determination to use her powers for others. But that night, something strange happens.



Arulumaya is a fortune-teller who is possessive of infallible powers of premonition.
It is in a certain town that (Captain) and the crew first encounter her engaging in prophecy.
Hearing countless reports of her unerring divinations, a burning desire is ignited amongst the crewmates to learn of their own futures.
Arulumaya: I unfortunately cannot assist you. I use my powers for the people, not individuals.
Arulumaya: Besides, spending your days following prophecies robs you of your ability to think.
Arulumaya: What if I told you there are calamities ahead? Would you give up on your journey?
Lyria: No way! We'll go on no matter how hard it gets!
Arulumaya: In that case, there's really no need for my divination. I wish you the best of luck, Lyria.
Acknowledging that there is wisdom in her words, the crew moves on without troubling her further.
However, on that very night, Arulumaya makes her way to the deck of the Grandcypher, wishing to speak.
She heralds a great turning point in (Captain)'s future, one that could shake the very foundations of the world.
Desiring to witness the great turning point with her own eyes and extend any assistance she may, Arulumaya declares her desire to join (Captain)'s crew.
Vyrn: Well, as long as it's okay with (Captain), I don't mind if you join us, Ms. Fortune-Teller.
Arulumaya: Haha. Thank you. Allow me to introduce myself again. I'm Arulumaya, but you can call me Arulu.
Vyrn: Hey... What's with the sudden change in your tone of voice?
Arulumaya: I'm always very careful about how I speak when acting as an oracle for the people.
Vyrn: You were putting on an act for them?
Arulumaya: I just used the correct oracle voice. Since we're friends now, there's no need to put up walls between us.
Arulumaya: I'm counting on you, (Captain). Whatever path you take, I'll be watching you from close by.
And thus the crew gains an invaluable ally in Arulumaya, her powers unlike anything they have encountered before.
It would come to pass during their journey across the skies that she and (Captain) confront a most terrible of calamities.
Arulumaya shares visions of the islands of the skies crumbling and falling down, one by one.
Owing to her premonitions, the crew is able to evacuate the islands before harm comes to any.
Arulumaya: Everyone, please try to stay calm. I understand how upset you must be from the quakes.
Arulumaya: But that's why we must all come together. It's time to stand united to overcome this trial.
Arulumaya is able to utilize her powers to predict which islands would come to meet a terrible fate.
Owing to her indomitable spirit, the inhabitants of each island come together to face the adversity and evacuate before any loss of life occurs.
And so the march of time continues on...
A smile forms on Arulumaya's face, newly awakened by the pleasant songs of the early morning birds.
Arulumaya: Ah...
Arulumaya: Much to my chagrin, I am just not able to see anything of what's to come in your own future. As a professional, it's quite vexatious.
Arulumaya: At any rate, come, let us exchange our daily greetings on this beautiful morning, (Captain).
  1. Good morning!


Choose: Good morning!

Arulumaya: Yes, good morning! Seeing the usual spring in your step is most comforting. Now, to what do I owe the pleasure?
  1. Let's take it easy today.
  2. This is a wake-up call.


Choose: Let's take it easy today.

Arulumaya: Take it... easy? My, is there no work to be done today?
Nodding at Arulumaya's words, (Captain) suggests that they enjoy this downtime to the fullest.
Go to "Continue 1"


Choose: This is a wake-up call.

Go to "Continue 2"


Continue 2

Arulumaya: What a wonderful service you provide here! Though I must say, (Captain), I do wonder if I should admire the boldness it must take to wander into a lady's room unannounced.
Go to "Continue 3"


Arulumaya: While I'm most happy to be greeted by your visage first thing in the morning, don't you think it's a little discourteous to come wandering into one's bedroom, (Captain)?
Arulumaya: Though again, I don't mind at all. Others may not extend the same sense of graciousness however.

Continue 3

Arulumaya: If there is perhaps something you wish to share with me, then I'm all ears. As a cherished friend, I wish for there to be no walls between us.
Dropping any pretense, (Captain) asks Arulumaya if they can take the day to hang out together.

Continue 1

Arulumaya: I'd never turn down the opportunity to spend some alone time with you, but something tells me it's not quite as simple as that.
Arulumaya: Well, now I'm wide awake. I owe it all to that ceaseless charm of yours.
Arulumaya: That being the case, I think I'll take you up on your offer.
Arulumaya: Can I count on you to be my escort for today, (Captain)?
At (Captain)'s behest, the two decide to spend their day together.
It is apparent that something is amiss, however, as (Captain) engages in a manner of odd behaviors.
In leading Arulumaya to spots with no people, it seems that (Captain) is making a concerted effort to avoid both Vyrn and Lyria, who are going about some work.
Seeking to put an end to the suspicious sneaking, Arulumaya calls out to her crew members.
Arulumaya: You all look awfully busy. Is there anything we may do to be of help?
Lyria: Huh? Oh, no, this is nothing!
Vyrn: That's right! Though we're pretty surprised to be seeing you around here Ms. Fortune-Tell—
  1. All good then!


Choose: All good then!

Lyria: Yes, we're all good here!
Vyrn: Oops. My bad.
Morphe: That was close...
Phoebe: Yeah, she almost found out about the surp—
Morphe: Ph-Phoebe!
Phoebe: Oops. My bad.
Morphe: And now you're just mimicking Vyrn. Come on, I think we all have some chores to do, right?
Lyria: Yes! Well, I think we should be on our way! See you!
Arulumaya: To think that even those twins, Morphe and Phoebe, would be in on this little caper.
Arulumaya: It would seem that I can't rely on seeing the future clearly when I'm with you. I suppose I must remain vigilant and be prepared for nearly anything to occur.
Arulumaya: Vigilant... Hmm, maybe not anything quite so dire. I know that none of you would ever do any harm.
Arulumaya: This is most exciting. I wonder... What could be in store for us?
Heeding no longer the peculiar behavior of the crew, Arulumaya resolves instead to spend a pleasant day with (Captain).
A few days pass, and (Captain) invites Arulumaya out to visit a certain town.
It happens to be a town on an island that was subject to the calamity some time ago.
Arulumaya: My... I had heard that the restoration efforts were proceeding well, but I never imagined I would see everyone return to such liveliness so soon.
Arulumaya: The people of this town surely possess great strength...
Arulumaya: Hmm?
Arulumaya: My name is printed on that banner...
Arulumaya: And goodness, what ever is written on that massive signboard...
Arulumaya: "Arulumaya Thanksgiving Festival"?
Mayor: Oh, Arulumaya! Everyone, Arulumaya has arrived!
Man: Mistress Arulumaya, welcome back to the village!
Woman: Please, rest easy and enjoy yourself today! Leave the cooking and the entertaining to us!
Arulumaya: Everyone... I am deeply grateful for your hospitality. You have my utmost thanks.
Arulumaya: Though I must ask, what is meant by this "Thanksgiving Festival"?
Mayor: Everyone on this island owes their life to you, Arulumaya.
Mayor: We wish to repay you for your gallantry in full.
Arulumaya: I do appreciate the gesture, but surely you know it was not by my hand alone...
Arulumaya: It is all thanks to the combined efforts of our crew, and to all of you for your swift action and cooperation under crisis.
Man: Now, now. No need to be so humble, Arulumaya.
Woman: If it weren't for your divinations, we would be long buried beneath the clouds.
Mayor: The reason we can even celebrate here today is all thanks to you.
Arulumaya: But...
Vyrn: You should just go ahead and accept all the praise, Arulumaya!
Lyria: Who knows what would have happened if you weren't around, Arulu! You really are amazing!
Arulumaya: Vyrn... Lyria...
Arulumaya: I see now... All that sneaking and scurrying about was in preparation for this festival, wasn't it?
Phoebe: Hmm... You're half right I would say...
Morphe: The other half is right here. Ta-da!
Arulumaya: This is... some kind of gown?
Vyrn: Hehe, we all pitched in to gather the materials and make it!
Arulumaya: ...!
Arulumaya: My... Thank you. To think you all would spend so much time and effort on such a gorgeous piece just for me.
Arulumaya: (Captain), could this possibly be the reason you insisted on spending so much time with me?
Arulumaya: I'm glad. It would have been no fun at all if I could just envision the surprise all on my own.
Phoebe: We wanna see you wear it, Arulumaya!
Arulumaya: Very well. It's certainly doing us no use merely draped over my arms like this. Please wait just a moment.
Arulumaya: It is most comfortable. The interwoven threads also serve as an excellent conductor of magic.
The Four: ...
Arulumaya: Oho? Could it be that it doesn't suit me after all? Your silence is greatly worrying...
Vyrn: No, no! It's the exact opposite! The words couldn't even make their way out!
Lyria: You're absolutely stunning! Even more so than usual, Arulu!
Phoebe: I'm glad I went all in on the white! You're beautiful...
Morphe: She's right, you know. It really suits you!
Arulumaya: Please... This is all too much, everyone. Even I cannot help but turn red in the face of so much praise.
Man: She's like a goddess...
Woman: Oh, Mistress Arulumaya!
Arulumaya: Come now, I am no goddess. I am just a simple fortune-teller.
Mayor: I disagree. With everything you've done for us, you're no different from a goddess in our eyes.
Mayor: I am certain that this will not be the end of your great deeds.
Mayor: Please, continue to watch over all of us who dwell under these skies with your divine visions of what is to be.
Arulumaya: ...
Arulumaya: I am afraid to say that I too am merely of flesh. There is a limit to what I will be able to do.
Arulumaya: However, I do believe that I can be of some assistance to those in need.
Arulumaya: I promise to use these powers of premonition for the benefit of all.
Arulumaya: (Yes... And for the happiness of everyone...)
Arulumaya: (For the happiness of (Captain), the crew... And for safety on our journeys... That, so much I can do.)
Arulumaya: (There's no doubting it. Seeing how all of these people were able to persevere even after my heralding of calamity... I know now what I must do.)
Gazing upon everyone, a slight smile forms across her face as she is at last able to recognize her path forward.
Satisfied with her decision, Arulumaya joins in the festivities.
Later that night...
Arulumaya: (Am I... dreaming?)
Arulumaya: (Did I pass out from sheer exhaustion? Perhaps I went a bit overboard...)
Arulumaya: (No, this is a dream.)
Arulumaya: (And could this be one of those dreams?)
Arulumaya recognizes that her surroundings are not of the waking world.
Though she is familiar with this place, it would have been impossible to access from the festival grounds. She sees herself take a book from off of a shelf.
Arulumaya: (No... This cannot be...)
Arulumaya: (Why am I... seeing my own future?)
Visions of her own future—this is unlike anything she has ever witnessed before.
But there is no mistaking that the person walking to and fro in front of her is some form of herself.
This only marks the beginning of her strange encounters...
