The Floating Ribbons last for days!

• "And when they've been in the water too long?"

First they get waterlogged, and eventually they sink.

We'll never see it because the Gumigumis are determined to ruin things.

Help bring light back to the Festival of Light?

• Accept.
• Decline.

I wasn't there, of course, but I hear the Gumigumis swim up to a Sinking Ribbon and just tow it away.

• "I'll get them back."

Liberate the Sinking Ribbons from their Gumigumi captors, then take them to Ardos.

I see you've been out among the people. Are you enjoying the Festival?

• "Too busy getting these Ribbons."

I'm not as trusting as you seem to think.

Maybe you think, "Oh, that Ardos. He's so interested in pre-Cataclysm history that he ignores reality."

You can just belay that thought and come back with the Sinking Ribbons stolen by the Gumigumis.

• "Oh, that Ardos. He's such a hard..."

Oh, thank you, Daeva.

These still have a bit of life left in them, enough to last out the remainder.

You've saved us, just like Lady Ariel saved the Tower of Light from further desecration.

Ardos was looking at the waters and saw that the Sinking Ribbons had been stolen! How ever would the Festival of Light go on?

You reacquired the Ribbons from the thieving Gumigumis, much to Ardos' pleasure.
