In the end, Bella Dillon traded an All-World Communication Phone for the information that Talent Stones could be fished from the lake on Isle 1004 with a special fishing rod.
As for where Bella Dillon would find a special fishing rod or how she'd manage to land on Isle 1004, that wasn't Faye Yardley's concern.
Now that she had the information, Bella Dillon couldn't wait to leave Isle 98.
Faye Yardley held the All-World Communication Phone as it automatically integrated with her system. A new All-World Communication friends list appeared.
The good thing was that the list had no friend limit, though for now, the only person on it was Bella Dillon, the Merfolk.
But there was a downside: the phone was truly just a phone. Unlike the system's built-in communicator, it couldn't be used to send Red Envelopes, which was a significant drop in functionality.
Ethan Yardley looked at his smiling sister standing on the dock and asked, "Faye, who exactly is that Bella Dillon?"
