Next stop on the path is Fabul, so that's where we're going. We unequip everyone except Cecil before heading in.
Yang: You men return to your posts.
Monks: Yes, Master!
The two monks leave our party, and the Duke Consort comes to greet us.
Yang: I have returned. How... how is my wife?
Duke Consort: Your heir should be born at any moment, Master Yang.
Yang: You mean... I am still in time!?
Cecil: Yang, go to her!
Yang: I can't... There's nothing I can do for her now...
Not interested in being the Panicky Expectant Father I take it, then?
Rosa: Yang...!
Yang: No, until the babe is born I will busy myself training the acolytes.
Well, Cecil and Rosa go up anyway. Yang leaves the party. We loot the castle then head up to the top of the West Tower.
???: Wah! WAAAH!
Just in time, I guess.
Cecil: ......!!!
Rosa: The baby is out!
Yang: Sheila!
Oh look, Yang actually wants to do something now.
Sheila: Honey...
Yang: Is it...?
Midwife: It is a very healthy little girl.
Yang: A girl... My... daughter... She's so small and light... But... Feel how warm she is. You've done it, Sheila!
Rosa: Congratulations!
Cecil: Why didn't you even tell us you were expecting?
Yang: I didn't wish to take away from today's celebration...
You had NINE MONTHS to tell someone, Yang.
Cecil: You never change, do you?
Well, he'll always have single digit Intellect, anyway.
Yang: Cecil, I have something I'd like ask of you... Would you consider being my daughter's godfather and giving her a name?
We're given a Yes/No prompt here, so, sure, why not?
Cecil: Well, then... How about... How about Ursula?
Yang: Oh, that is a fine name!
Rosa: A very strong name, Cecil.
Yang: Ursula... I think she likes it! You have named her well, Cecil! Ursula! Aren't you glad we asked your uncle Cecil?
Sheila: Thank you, Cecil.
Then we hear an airship fly over. Never a dull moment, is there?
Cecil: That's...? The Falcon!
The Falcon lands outside.
Cecil: But the Falcon should be in the hands of the dwarves...
We head into the throne room with Yang and are soon joined by Cid, Luca, Palom and Porom.
Cecil: Cid...! What are you doing here!?
Palom: Looking for action, that's what!
Cid: There's talk of monsters pouring out of the Sealed Cave, lad!
Cecil: What!
Luca: We dwarves can't beat them all on our own...
Porom: So the elder told us to do whatever we could to help.
Cecil: And I will do the same!
Yang: Do not forget me!
Cecil: You should stay here with your family, Yang.
Porom: There's nothing to worry about, pops! We'll take care of everything!
Yang: ...Thank you!
Cecil: Let's go, Rosa.
Rosa: Yes, of course...
You know, she's not looking too good...
Cecil: Rosa!
Cid: She's gone white as a sheet!
Rosa: I-I'm fine. We need to go...
Porom: Rosa, please stay here in Fabul and rest.
Rosa: B-but I must...
Cecil: I'm sorry to ask you, Yang, but please take care of Rosa for me.
Yang: I understand, Cecil.
Cecil: Cid, take us to the Sealed Cave.
Luca: I'll go ahead and get the Falcon Ready!
Our party is now Cid, Palom, Cecil and Porom. The three new party members all join at level 34.
Well, I think that's all for now. Next time, we head into the Underworld.
