It didn't take them long to cross the sandy area and reach the docks, although Guy made sure to move his flashlight around them in case the ferryman decided to ambush them again. It didn't seem like the skeleton meant them any true harm. Instead, he just liked to string them along and trick them. That didn't mean that Guy wanted to be startled, though. Still, the ferryman was their only way across, which meant they had to be at least somewhat polite. It was a good thing that Guy had some experience with being civil toward people he didn't like.

He wasn't that surprised that Claude was bringing up how they hadn't gotten anywhere last time. As his boots hit the wooden planks that made up the dock, Guy turned back toward the pair. He had to admit it would be strange if they had to deal with a mute Anise for the rest of the night, but...

"Well, I think we should also make doubly sure that we can't repeat the same toll. Seeing how it's a different night, and -- like you said -- we didn't get anywhere... we could at least ask." They'd only gotten a very vague briefing on how this all worked the first time, after all.
