King Bedoe asks if he's going to kill Zeon as he demanded. Since there isn't much of a plot otherwise, Bowie agrees.

King Bedoe
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
You're a man of honor!
Then why don't you go
to see Creed?
He's an ex-greater devil.
He may give you so
information.
But, you must to travel
along the river to get
to Creed's mansion.

King Bedoe asks Luke to get a raft from the Polcan mayor.

Luke
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
OK.
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Yes, sir!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Before leaving Bedoe, Bowie decides to investigate some bushes at the town's entrance; His undue curiosity earns him a skull-smashing from a hatchling who fell from the cliffs above. The irresponsible mother thanks him for breaking the boy's fall.
This is going to be important eventually, really.

Polca

Soon after entering, Bowie and co. overhear the voice of monsters. They've invaded the town...they're learning! Luke and two of his bird buddies confront a red-suited dwarf-devil and his minotaur cohorts.

Dark Soldier
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Bedoe soldiers are such
cowards!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Bedoe soliders are cowards!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Luke
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Shut up!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Be quiet!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Translation Notes
You can't tell murderous demons to shut up. That would be rude.

After that witty ripost, both of Luke's partners are killed.

Luke
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
You're so cruel.
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
My comrades!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Dark Soldier
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
No more funny business,
stop resisting us?
Now, give me that injured
boy!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
No more funny business, you
can't resist us!
Now, give me that injured
boy!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Gerhalt
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Will you really obey him?
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Don't listen to him!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

Pan over to Gerhalt, who's better than the rest of the beastmen because he dons a feathered cap.

Gerhalt
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
No! I'll fight against
the devils to guard
Oddler!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
I'll help you fight against
the devils and guard Oddler!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

Gerhalt and Luke call to Bowie and Peter. Peter has no idea why Luke is there. Poor Peter, his short-term memory is terrible.

Luke
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
I came here to see you
and face these devils.
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
I came here to get a raft
for you.
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

Luke was deceived by the Polcan people, who were manipulated by the devils. Gerhalt apologizes for the town's actions.

Gerhalt
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
I don't expect Polca's help.
Please let me join you!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Polcans will not fight.
Please let me join you!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

Gerhalt joins the force! Luke's eager to join too, so he also- oh. He's knocked unconscious.

Dark Soldier
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Do you still dare to
resist us?!
Come on! Regret it in
another world!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
You still dare to resist us?!
For that you shall die!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

No he won't.

After the battle, Luke comes back to his senses, such as they are.

Luke
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Squawk! They knocked me
senseless...
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Squawk! They knocked me
senseless.
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Luke
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Where are the devils?
[Hero], did you defeat
them? How brave you are!
Nobody in Bedoe can fight
like that. Thank you
very much, [Hero].
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Where are the devils?
[Hero], did you defeat
them?
Nobody in Bedoe can fight
like that. Thank you.
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Peter
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
You think so, too?
Volcanon doesn't know how
brave he is!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
He's a great fighter.
Volcanon doesn't know how
good he is!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Luke
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
I can't say...
Let's go to see the Mayor
to get a raft!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
He'll learn.
Let's go see the mayor and
get a raft!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

A significant portion of this part of the game is mayor-talking. Here's some more of it: They mayor thinks that Bowie's bunch are there to possess him.

Peter
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
What does he mean?
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
What's he talking about?
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Luke
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
I don't know....
What a loon!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
I don't know...
What a loon!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

Ha! Bird humor. The mayor carefully examines Luke.

Father
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
He's warm! He's alive!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
You're warm! You're alive!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

The mayor reveals that the devils made a deal to leave Polca alone if they gave Oddler up. The mayor sent Luke in his place.

Father
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
I'm sorry...please don't
tell King Bedoe!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
I'm sorry, please don't
tell King Bedoe!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Luke
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
All right, I won't...
if you prepare a raft
for [Hero].
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Alright, I won't...
If you prepare a raft for
[Hero].
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

The mayor abides.

Father
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Is anybody there?
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Hey, Ripster!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Translation Notes
In the final script, this beastman gets the dignity of a name.

An offscreen beastman hurries to the mayor. He's asked to prepare a raft, even though it's the last one in town.

Father
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Shut up!
You can make it if
necessary, can't you?!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
I don't care!
You can make another if
necessary, can't you?!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

The downtrodden beastman runs from his oppressor.

Father
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Your raft will be waitingfor you
  on the river.
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
A raft will be waiting for
you on the river.
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

Sensing that the mayor wants to get rid of them, they head off to see their new raft...only to get interrupted by the Mayor again.

Father
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
If possible...
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
If it's possible...
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

He wants to pawn Oddler, the blind boy, off on the party.

Luke
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
You brute!
You don't want to
take care of him!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
You lazy human!
You don't want to take care
of him!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

Peter presents a choice: Should Bowie take Oddler with them?

If Bowie says yes...

Peter
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Are you serious?
[Hero], you're too kind.
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
June Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Are you serious?
[Hero], you're so nice.
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Are you serious?
[Hero], you're too nice.
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Father
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Oh, thank you!
Oddler, [Hero]
is a very kind lad.
You can fully trust him!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Oh, thank you!
Oddler, [Hero] will
take you.
You can trust him!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

If Bowie says no...

Peter
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
I agree. Our journey is
too hard for him, as he
is blind.
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
I agree. Our journey will
be too difficult on him,
as he is blind.
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

It doesn't really matter either way, because Oddler is joining regardless. He introduces himself.

Oddler
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
I was nearly dead when
I came here.
Actually, I don't
remember that...
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
I was nearly dead when I
came here.
Actually, I don't remember...
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

Bowie takes the strange, plot-important boy along for the ride. Luke sounds like he wants to go with the force too.

Luke
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Yes, I am. I want to
fight with [Hero].
There might be some
excitement!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
I am. I want to fight with
[Hero].
This might be exciting!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

Alright then. Luke joins the force! For real this time!

Peter
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
I didn't know you're such
an optimist!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
I didn't know you were such
an adventurer!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Luke
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Adventure!
Wow! Let's go!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Alright!
Wow! Let's go!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

South River

A little-known RPG bylaw dictates that every fantasy RPG must have a Minotaur, Kraken, or Wyvern as a boss at some point in the series. Since this is a river, it's Kraken time.

He was delicious.

Area Dialogue

Bedoe

The birdmen in the throne room have new dialogue.

Birdman
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Goddess Mitula lives in
Tristan on the north side
of the mountains.
The people living in
Tristan are kind, but weak.
Are they all right?
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Goddess Mitula lives on the
north side of Tristan through
the mountains.
The people living in Tristan
are kind, but weak.
I wonder if they are alright?
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Birdwoman
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
We can't calm down God
Volcanon.
Without his protection,
people on the earth
will perish.
Tristan and Bedoe will
forever remain alone.
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
We can't calm down
Volcanon.
Without his protection, the
people that live on the
ground will perish.
Only Tristan and Bedoe
will survive.
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

Outside the throne room, a birdkid is perched in thought.

Birdkid
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
I had a dream last night
I flew!
Look at me. I can fly.
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
I had a dream last night.
I flew!
Watch! I can fly!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

The birdchild hovers above the ground for a bit before gravity takes hold. Impressive, but it's not flying.

Birdkid
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Mmmm...strange....
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
Hmmm...strange...
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Birdkid
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
I missed. Hee, hee.
Stay there.
I can fly!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
That didn't work. Hee, hee.
Stay there.
I know I can fly!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

The hatchling manages to mantain flight long enough to avoid being a white puddle of goo on the ground.

Birdkid
April Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
That was surprising!
See? I flew!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Final Script
Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
See! I told you!
I can fly...sort of.
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

Polca

This random beastman has important information on where to go next.

the river.
There's an ancient ruin
in the desert.
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png

There's a desert in the south.
Ancient ruins lay in the
desert.

Drat!

I could help you if I were
younger.
But now I'm too darn old.
Drat!
Shining2DialogueBoxBottom.png
Translation Notes
The "a" in the second line was left over from the April script.

Ripper, contrary to his name, is a polite, thoughtful fellow.

Beastman

Shining2DialogueBoxTop.png
You saw Volcanon?
Are you serious?
I've never met him,
though I've lived here
for a long time.

And then there's this dwarf.
