Dialogue
Quest DescriptionYou bump into Alyosha near a station. He wants to do something for this particular station...
- (Approach Alyosha)
- Paimon: Hey, if it isn't Alyosha!
- Alyosha: (Traveler), Paimon? It's been a while. How are you feeling, Paimon?
- Paimon: Don't worry, Paimon's all better now! What are you doing out here?
- Alyosha: I want to fix up this abandoned station.
- (If the player has completed either Atop the Floating Snow or Awaiting the Dawn)
-
- Paimon: You too?
- Alyosha: Ah. Guessing you've already been here with Odette or Vodyanitsa.
- Alyosha: The idea started out as something Vodyanitsa randomly brought up at a party. Before I knew it, I'd been roped in to help.
- Alyosha: If we can restore this station so it's back up and running again, everyone who lives around here will benefit greatly.
- Alyosha: Unfortunately, our government's too busy executing some grander plan to notice this little spot. So it's up to citizens like me to step up.
- Alyosha: But that's fine by me. It's one way I can stand up for what the Rokot believes in without having to reach for my gun.
Paimon and I will help too.- Paimon: Yeah! The two of us have done this sort of thing plenty of times!
- Alyosha: Alright, but I can't let you help us for nothing. I'll make sure you're paid fairly.
- Where do you want to start?
- Alyosha: I'd like to fix this station's heat source first, but...
- Alyosha: I had the technicians from the Rokot check it out. They said this kind of furnace needs a certain power core. Without that, it won't start.
- Paimon: A power core? Where are we supposed to find one of those?
- Alyosha: No idea yet. All I know is, it's something to do with the Shadow Realm tech excavated during the Belyi Tsar's time.
- In that case...
- What about the fae gangs?
- Alyosha: Good point. We did run into quite a few gang members back when we discovered those underground ruins.
- Alyosha: I remember them saying that the gangs are secretly excavating various Shadow Realm relics. They could well have what we're looking for.
- Alyosha: I heard from a friend at the Rokot that there's a gang active near here.
- Alyosha: But if we start investigating just on a hunch, who knows when we'll find what we need? Things have been pretty busy at the Rokot lately, too...
- Alyosha: Looks like we'll have to put the repair work at this station on hold for now. We'll come back to it when we have the chance.
- (If the player has not already completed Disputes Without Honor and Humanity)
-
- Paimon: Don't worry, Alyosha. You handle things with the Rokot first. We'll investigate those gang members.
- Leave it to us.
- Alyosha: ...Guess I'll need to raise your pay.
- Alyosha: I appreciate the help. Let's meet back here once you find that power core.
- (If the player has already completed Disputes Without Honor and Humanity)
-
- Paimon: Actually, we've already looked into all that gangland stuff.
- Paimon: Oh, right! And we got that strange crystal thing, didn't we? Do you think it's the power core for the furnace?
- Alyosha: What a coincidence. Can I take a look?
- (Submit Smelted Kristall Ore)
- (If the player returns with the crystal after completing Disputes Without Honor and Humanity)
- Paimon: Alyosha, good to see you again!
- Paimon: We got this interesting-looking crystal from the fae gang. Take a look! Is this what we're looking for?
- Alyosha: Great work, you guys. Gimme a second to inspect it.
- (Submit Smelted Kristall Ore)
- (Submit
- (After submitting the item)
- Alyosha: One moment. Let me try this out.
- (The crystal floats from Alyosha's hand into the furnace)
- Paimon: Ooh, there we go, it's fixed! This heater is amazing. Paimon feels nice and warm already!
- Alyosha: Thanks to you two, this step of the renovations is finally complete. Please accept this in return.
- Paimon: Hehe... So, is there anything else you need help with?
- Alyosha: I said I was gonna pick out a few cute puppies to act as guard dogs here... but I can handle that. No need to bother you with it.
- Alyosha: Once all the repair work is complete, this station should make a great little gathering spot.
- Alyosha: So be sure to drop by if you have the time.
- Paimon: We sure will!
