Foolish Mortals!
Medusa, a primal beast with a petrifying gaze, shows up on the Grandcypher with a giant serpent in tow. Although confused about why Rosetta would travel with mortals, Medusa is drawn to (Captain) and the others due to their complete lack of fear of her, and she decides to tag along for a while.
(Captain) and company are drifting past the Lumacie Archipelago on the Grand Cypher.
Lyria: Ah! What lovely weather!
Vyrn: Yeah! And the sky's so blue.
Vyrn: Wha?
Lyria: Aahh!
Vyrn: What's goin' on?
???: ...
???: Humph!
Lyria: Huh? A girl?
Vyrn: She just dropped out of the sky!
???: Hee-hee... Medusiana!
???: ...!
Vyrn: Oh, what now? Yikes! A giant snake!
Lyria: ...!
I'm sensing a primal beast!
I'm sensing a primal beast!
Vyrn: Seriously? Why would some girl be hangin' out with a primal beast?
Rosetta: You're a little off there. I suspect that the girl herself is the primal beast.
Lyria: So it seems. Um... So what—
???: Hee-hee! You should see the looks on your faces!
Medusa: I am Medusa, the proud primal beast who can turn anyone to stone with just a glance!
Vyrn: Whoa! That's a wicked power!
Medusa: Hee-hee... And my friend here is Medusiana, a gigantic serpent of fearsome might!
Medusiana: ...!
Medusa: Now tremble in fear, mortals!
Lyria: Wow! You're really something!
Medusa: That I am.
Medusa, who's puffed up with pride and smiling triumphantly, stares at the crew and waits expectantly.
Vyrn: Uh...
Medusa: ...?
Vyrn: Wh-what?
Lyria: Um... I'm Lyria.
Vyrn: Yeah, and you can call me Vyrn.
Medusa: Huh?
Lyria: So... Hi, Medusa.
Medusa: Hey!
Medusa: You've got a lot of nerve addressing me like that! Foolish mortals!
Lyria: Yikes! Sorry!
Rosetta: Hee-hee. I think I like this girl.
Vyrn: Uh... Why are you here anyway? You want something from us?
Medusa: Excuse me? Is that the best you can do? Can't you come up with a better way to approach me?
Vyrn: Well, you're the one who suddenly showed up on our ship after all.
Medusa: Don't you get that I'm a primal beast? I could petrify a bunch of feeble mortals like you in a heartbeat!
Medusa: How can you guys be so calm in the face of such awesome power?
Lyria: So are you going to turn us to stone?
Medusa: I didn't say that!
Vyrn: Then it doesn't sound like we have anything to fear.
Medusa: Grrr! You're just not getting it!
Rosetta: Hee-hee. Try to calm down, dear.
Rosetta: I think we owe you an apology. You see, these kids are in a unique kind of situation, and they're more used to primal beasts than most people.
Medusa: A unique situation? Like I care...
Medusa: Wait!
Medusa: You're a primal beast, aren't you?
Rosetta: Hee-hee. I sure am. Just like you.
Medusa: So why would a primal beast be in a place like this?
Rosetta: Well, this is (Captain)'s airship, and I happen to be a member of the crew.
Medusa: What? A primal beast with a mortal crew? So you're traveling together?
Medusa: That's ridiculous. I can't believe it!
Medusa: Tell me why!
Rosetta: Oh, it's quite simple. I just like these kids.
Medusa: That makes no sense at all!
Rosetta: Is that so? Well, I actually think it's more enjoyable to travel with a group than sit around alone.
Rosetta: But you already sort of understand that, don't you?
Medusa: Well...
Medusa wraps her arm around Medusiana and strokes the creature's scales.
Medusa: I'm not actually alone at all. I always have Medusiana at my side.
Medusa: But still...
Medusa lifts her head after a short pause and once again looks at (Captain) and company.
Medusa: Listen up, foolish mortals! I'll be joining you on your little journey for a while!
Vyrn: Whoa! Where'd that come from all of a sudden?
Medusa: I'm powerful, you know? You're thrilled, right?
Vyrn: Hey, don't ignore me!
Lyria: Yay! A new friend!
Vyrn: Lyria! Don't make this any worse!
Vyrn: Okay, (Captain). Looks like it's up to you to say something.
Choose: Are you actually powerful?
Medusa: Excuse me? You dare to doubt my power?
Medusa: That's impudent even for a mortal! How about I demonstrate my power right here and now?
Medusa: Though I can't guarantee that you'll be able to experience my power as stone statues...
Vyrn: Hey, hold it! (Captain) wasn't trying to insult you!
Medusa: Then (Captain) should think before speaking! To think I offered you mortals my power!
Lyria: Oh no! Try to calm down, Medusa! We want to be your friends!
Medusa: But you heard what (Captain) said!
Medusa: The only possible response! I hope you realize how lucky you are to have me!
Vyrn: Ugh... I can see how this is gonna go.

Rosetta: Hee-hee. I'm sure this will be fun. It's always nice to find another ally.
Medusa: Who said I'm your ally? I'm just going to grace you with my presence until I get bored of you!
Lyria: Hee-hee. Well, that's fine with me too! We'll have a blast together!
Medusa: Hey! Didn't I tell you not to get too chummy with me?
Vyrn: Man, what a pain...
Vyrn: Say, why'd you show up on our airship all of a sudden anyway?
Medusa: I was bored, so I decided to give you guys a little scare.
Medusa: But don't go thinking I chose you guys on purpose! Anyone who happened to be around would have been fine.
Vyrn: Yeah, yeah. Whatever you say.
Medusa: Hey! Pay attention when I'm talking to you!
Vyrn: Aaargh! Can't you put a sock in it?
Thus the primal beast Medusa joins (Captain) and company on their journey.
(Captain) looks forward to the adventure becoming that much more lively.
