- [The Player crosses the bridge and defeats a small group of Shadows. A dwarf then approaches The Player]
 "Why, why, who are you? I was standin' right over there, and I saw you use that key of yours to get rid of those teachers—uh, creatures."
- [The Player shows their Keyblade to the dwarf, who leans in for a closer look, then sighs and slumps.]
- "They've been nothin' but bubbles—uh—uh troubles."
- [The dwarf picks up.]
- "Oh, dear, I haven't introduced myself! I'm Doc. Me and my friends smirk in the twine—uh, work in the mine. Today was just a plain ol' day until those—those monsters sprung up outta nowhere. We all ran out to chase 'em away, but no one's come back."
- [Doc slumps.]
- "Oh, where could they have gone?"
- [Doc picks up.]
- "I should thank my muddy jars—uh, lucky stars you showed up! I didn't know what to do. I was sure I was done for!"
- [Doc nods and clasps his hands.]
- "Well—uh, well, perhaps you wouldn't mind helping me find my friends? I sure could use a band—uh, stand—uh, your help."
- [The Player nods and Doc smiles.]
- "You will? Oh, thank you!"
- [The Player and Doc look at the dark forest, then back at each other.]
- "I'll show you the way to the mine. Maybe we'll see one of the men on the way."
- [Doc leads the way toward the forest.]
