| 1617 | BANON: When the gate has been opened, the Espers can attack from the east. We'll storm in at the same time, from the north. | Banon: The Sealed Gate lies to the Empire's east. When we open it, the espers can attack from there while we launch an invasion from the north. | Banon "The Sealed Gate lies to the Empire's east."

"The Empire keeps the gate under tight surveillance, but you'll have to find a way to slip though and get it open." | Page 1: Woolsey, reformatted; "stands" -> "lies (Slattery)"; "at the Eastern edge" -> "in the far eastern reaches" for precision & w/r/t kWhazit ("in the Empire's east.")

Speaker is asking what was going on *with* the Espers just as much as, if not more than, where they went (See Slattery). |
| 1650 | Terra: Look, let's return to the airship. | Terra: We'd better head back to the airship. | Terra "In any case, we'd better get back to the airship." | kWhazit ("In any case, let's return to the airship.") merged w/ Slattery; "head back (Slattery)" -> "get back". |

| 1657 | Locke: I'm sure the Espers were headed for Vector... | Locke: The espers probably headed straight for Vector... | Locke "I'll bet the Espers were heading straight for Vector…" | kWhazit ("I'll bet the Genjuu headed to Vector for sure") merged w/ Woolsey & Slattery; including either "straight (Slattery)" or "for sure (kWhazit)" is important for consistency, since it was already discussed among the party that the Espers were heading for Vector. |
| 1658 | Cyan: The Empire deserves the worst! | Cyan: I cannot forgive the Empire... | Cyan "I cannot forgive the Empire…" | Slattery. |
| 1659 | Cyan: I could feel the warrior spirits of those Espers! | Cyan: I could feel the warrior spirit in those espers. | Cyan "I could feel the warrior spirit in those Espers." | Slattery, reformatted. |

| 1661 | Shadow: I think Kefka's out for General Leo's hide! | Shadow: This is just between us, but I heard that Kefka has designs on General Leo's life... | ~~~ Shadow "None of my business… but I heard Kefka is out for General Leo's blood." | (unused) DarkMage (similar to Slattery with different word choices) |

I'm a little worried... | Sabin "We should hurry and check out the situation in the Empire. I'm a little worried…" | Slattery. Not as literal as kWhazit ("I'm worried about how things are in the Empire... Let's hurry and go take a look!") but more believable; the more literal rendering gives an impression that Sabin is worried *about* the Empire itself (a.k.a. the enemy). |

| 1670 | Relm: I know. Let me draw their portraits! | Relm: Hey! Do you want me to paint your portrait? | Relm "Hey, hey! Do you want me to paint your portrait?" | Slattery; "Hey!" -> "Hey, hey! (kWhazit)" |

| 1672 | Setzer: What's the most important thing in life? Being free of obligations! Otherwise, you lose the ability to gamble... | Setzer: What's important to me...? Bah! If I were attached to things, I couldn't gamble! | Setzer "The most important thing to me…? Bah! If I formed attachments, I'd never be able to gamble!" | First sentence Slattery merged w/ kWhazit ("The most important thing...?"); otherwise Slattery edited for style. |
| 1673 | Setzer: Urghh! For the time being, I don't own the skies... | Setzer: Blast it... I guess the skies'll have to wait... | Setzer "Damn it…! For the time being, I no longer own the skies…" | First sentence kwhazit ("Damn...") merged w/ Woolsey's punctuation; Second sentence Woolsey, "I don't" -> "I no longer" for clarity. |

Coincidentally matches the original line if Shadow is the party leader. |

Let us speak at length over dinner tonight!" | First line "In any case..." is more or less novel, replaces segue "But for (Woolsey)", or hinted in kWhazit ("For tonight"), indicating Gestahl is explictly bringing the topic back into focus after Cid's philosophizing in the previous caption. Address "Esteemed warriors!" New, based on kWhazit / Lina Darkstar ("Warriors."), but with the tone of Slattery ("Friends!") -- note the use of "friends" by Woolsey & Slattery telegraph too strongly that Gestahl is not acting in good faith.

Not another move, or this one's dust…! | First sentence Slattery, second sentence Woolsey, "Don't move" -> "Not another move" to hopefully strike a better balance between making sense (since Lone Wolf is perfectly fine with the player moving backward) and giving a proper hint to the player. With Slattery the hint comes through much less clearly. Note "this one's dust" compares to kWhazit ("this one's life is forfeit"), "moogle (Slattery)" is not explicit. |

| 1969 | Relm: What a sweet puppy! | Relm: Hmph! | Relm ♬ Nee, hee! ♬ | New, based on kWhazit ("Nyaaaah!!") & Lina Darkstar commentary ('A close translation for this line would be "Neener neener!" but I rejected that on grounds of Relm not being quite THAT young. Just imagine her sticking out her tongue.'). |

Seems to have taken a liking to your dog... | Strago "Dear me, and now you've befriended the visitor's dog…" | New, based on Slattery & Mato commentary ('It's an incomplete sentence in Japanese', 'He's talking to Relm still about the dog.

You're not going to find anyone who knows about any of those esper things here, I'm afraid! Not in Thamasa! | Strago "I'm terribly sorry, but I don't think I can be of any help to you folks." Locke "I, uh… I see…" Strago "We're just a typical backwater village here! None of us knows a thing about those 'Espers' of yours…" | Page 1: Slattery, novel "Anyhow..." removed for brevity & effect, "I really don't" -> "I don't" for brevity. // Page 2: Slattery. // Page 3: Woolsey, slightly expanded wording w/r/t kWhazit, first person plural w/r/t Slattery for style. |

| 1979 | Relm: Interceptor, please come back again and play! | Relm: Interceptor, come back to play again sometime! | Relm "Interceptor, come back to play again sometime!" | Slattery. |
| 1980 | Strago: This is awful! Relm...she's... | Strago: You've gotta help! Relm...she's...! | Strago "It's an emergency! Relm…she's…!" | First sentence Lina Darkstar; Second sentence Slattery. |
| 1981 | Terra: Relm's in danger? Strago: Yes! She was at a neighbor's house when a fire broke out. I won't be able to stand it if something happens to her! | Terra: Something happened to Relm? Strago: Yes! She was on fire...and then it caught the neighbor's house on fire...and... Oh, I can't even think straight anymore, but...! | Terra "Little Relm's in danger!?" Strago "Yes! She was at a neighbor's house, a fire broke out, she's a fire-- she's trapped, I mean…!" "Oh, I can't even think straight right now…!" | Page 1: Woolsey; "Relm's" -> "Little Relm's" w/r/t kWhazit ("Relm-chan"). // Page 2: Lina Darkstar ("Yes! She was at a neighbor's house, a fire broke out"...) merged w/ Spooniest ("Yes! She was at the neighbors'! A fire's broken out! She's a fire-- She's trapped, I mean"...), w/r/t kWhazit ("Yes! Relm is stuck in a neighbor's house that caught on fire..."). // Page 3: Slattery merged w/ kWhazit ("Ayayaya... I just don't know what's what anymore!"), "anymore" -> "right now" to better reflect Strago's temporarily flustered state. |
| 1982 | Strago: Please! Won't you help?! | Strago: Please! You have to help her! | Strago "But…please! Won't you help??" | First sentence Woolsey, "Please" -> "But...please" w/r/t segue from kWhazit ("Anyhow") & Lina Darkstar ("Anyways"); Second sentence Woolsey, slightly repunctuated for style. |

| 1990 | Flames be GONE!!! | Flames BEGONE! | {{/Strago }/Strago }"Flames be…GONE!!" | Woolsey, "be GONE" -> "be_GONE" for style, adaptive dialog adds speaker label when said by Strago. |
| 1991 | MAYOR: Magic is forbidden! Terra: Magic...?! | Mayor: Magic is forbidden! Terra: Magic!? | Mayor "That's forbidden use of magic!" Terra "Magic!?" | Page 1: New. Novel wording moves away from the implication that magic is altogether forbidden. // Page 2: Slattery. |
| 1992 | Strago: I don't care! Relm's inside!!! | Strago: I don't care! Relm's inside! | Strago "I don't care what it is! My Relm's in there!!" | New, based on Spooniest ("I don't care! That's my Relm in there!!!"), lightly adapted to fit better with the new #1991. |
| 1993 | Mayor!! | Mayor! | Mayor! | Slattery. |
| 1994 | MAYOR: All right. We really have no choice. | Mayor: All right... We really have no choice. | Mayor "You're right… We really have no choice." | Slattery, "All right" -> "You're right" w/r/t kWhazit ("Yes, yes...") to disambiguate between approval and agreement. |
| 1995 | MAYOR: Stand back. | Mayor: Stand back. | Mayor "Stand back." | (W & S) |
| 1996 | Strago: It's no use. The fire's too strong! MAYOR: I think that's because they keep so many Fire Rods in here... | Strago: It's no use! The fire's too strong!

Locke: Count me in, too. I'm not gonna let an old geezer go in there on his own! Strago: Who are you calling a geezer!? I'm only seventy, and fit as a fiddle! "Geezer," he says... | Terra "Wait. I'll go too." Locke "That's right. Don't leave us out in the cold, Gramps." Strago "Who're you calling Gramps!? I may be past my prime, sonny, but I'm not decrepit!" | Page 1: Woolsey merged w/ Slattery. // Page 2: New, based on kWhazit ("That's right, gramps.
