Noland promised he would came back, so he did.

Noland's crew cheered when your ship finally landed on the Jaya island, the people who lived there immediately came at hearing the shouts, when they recognized them, they tried to tell the mans what happend in this while. The only thing that really catched the brown-haired's attention was one phrase. "Kalgara didn't leaved the golden bell, neither Nola, he was awaiting for you guys!"

After a few minutes of greeting, Noland made his way to Shandora, entering it, he found a sad looking red-haired warrior, whose didn't noticed him at first. Nola, the baby blue snake, squeaked in joy, making a wide-eyed Kalgara turn to him and ruining the liar's surprise, but he only giggled when the small being wrapped around his anke.

Suddenly, two large arms were wrapped firm around his body, he yelped, but noticed that long, messy red hair, indicating that it was Kalgara. Noland sighed and hugged his friend in return, after some seconds, he felt warm tears fall on his shoulder. "Noland, you idiot..." The warrior sternly said, he wasn't mad, no, he was feeling guity, guilty for accusing Noland of lying and ignoring him.

"I thought you wouldn't come back..." Even that he was a 39 old man, he missed his friend. (You can continue the story as a ship or only the two being friends, enjoy!)
