Scattered Letters: (They appear to be letters that have been sent to the Curatorium of Secrets...)

(If there is no Curatorium of Secrets member in current party)

(It wouldn't be appropriate for an outsider to read these letters...)

(‍Traveler‍): (Maybe I shouldn't read them...)

(If Nefer is in current party)

(There are letters that require Nefer's attention...)

Nefer: ...Seems like there's another matter for me to attend to.

(Read.)

(Random dialogue set)

(Dialogue Set #1)

Nefer: What's this letter doing here? Did Jahoda forget to put it away?

Nefer: "Please help. I really want to have a kitty like Ashru!"

Nefer: "Lady Nefer, can you tell me where you got him?"

Nefer: The place I found Ashru... I very much doubt you'd want to go there.

Nefer: Give it a couple of days, and I'll have Jahoda pass this letter on to the Adventurers' Guild — looking for cats is their area of expertise.

(Dialogue Set #2)

Nefer: ...Some customers are in too much of a hurry.

Nefer: Such a pity... A customer who likes playing games, despite showing no talent for them.

Nefer: Crying your eyes out while discussing the commission, sobbing, "No price is too much"...

Nefer: And then revealing your "price," and having it conveniently be exactly what the commission's worth, not a Mora more or a Mora less...

Nefer: Making a show of losing control over your emotions, then taking a sudden rational turn when it comes time to pay...

Nefer: Forget it — the sum has been paid, so there's nothing for it but to follow up. We'll settle everything in a few days time.

(Dialogue Set #3)

Nefer: Did you find something, Ashru?

Ashru: Meow. Meow?

Nefer: Huh... So, you went outside gallivanting with Jahoda again yesterday. You didn't close the window properly when you got back.

Ashru: Meow meow, meow meow meow meow...

Nefer: At least she didn't make a scene this time. It looks like she's starting to learn.

Nefer: Alright, let's leave the commission in this letter to her.

(If Jahoda is in current party)

(There's a letter Jahoda needs to look at...)

Jahoda: Another letter? Ugh, please don't make me rescue another cat again...

(Read.)

(Random dialogue set)

(Dialogue Set #1)

Ashru: Meow...?

Jahoda: Oh Ashru, my dear Ashru, come, lend me your claws for a minute. I need to open this letter.

Ashru: Meow meow, meow meow meow meow...

Jahoda: *Sigh* I was just joking. And, speaking of which, it looks like your claws are overdue for a clipping...?

Ashru: Meow! Meow meow meow MEOW!

Jahoda: Alright, it's decided. I'll do it right now. Stay here while I get the nail clippers.

Ashru: Meow... Meow!

(Dialogue Set #2)

Jahoda: Someone left a letter here again. I hope this doesn't mean another troublesome case...

Jahoda: "Seeking to join the Fatui! Do you happen to know any way I could get in? Am ready and willing to pay any..."

Jahoda: Ugh, I'm done reading this nonsense! What's with this fool, always pestering us to help him join the Fatui?

Jahoda: What's so great about the Fatui anyway? Why can't he just live a nice, quiet life... Oh, that's right, I have to write a reply...

Jahoda: What was it that Boss wrote the other time...? I think it was... "Regrettably, we do not have any expertise in this area and are hence unable to help in this matter."

(Dialogue Set #3)

Jahoda: Just where did I put... where did I put it?

Jahoda: Found it! Phew, thank goodness...

Jahoda: I'd be completely done for if I really lost the commission letter.

Jahoda: I need to hurry and take it to Boss Nef now, since it seems like there's still time...

Chest with Curatorium of Secrets's finances

Located in Nefer's secret room, in the southern corner. Only becomes available after completing Echoes of Fate.

Open It and Take a Look...

Chest: (A chest that contains some part of the Curatorium of Secrets's finances.)

(If there is no Curatorium of Secrets member in current party)

(Looks like there's no way to open it...)

(‍Traveler‍): (Perhaps this chest can only be opened by the staff at the Curatorium of Secrets...)

(If Nefer is in current party)

(Perhaps Nefer would like to inspect the chest...)

(1st time)

Nefer: We've been making a decent profit lately. Ashru might be in line for an extra meal.

You open the chest...

(Obtain Mora ×100,000)

(2nd time)

Nefer: Hmm... I'll take some out to pay the bills.

You open the chest...

(Obtain Mora ×100,000)

(3rd time)

Nefer: That looks about right. This is all that's left after paying the bills. *sigh* If only we had a few more customers from Liyue...

You open the chest...

(Obtain Mora ×100,000)

(Subsequent times)

Nefer: Heh, that's about right. This chest can rest for a while.

(If Jahoda is in current party)

(Perhaps Jahoda would like to inspect the chest...)

(1st time)

Jahoda: Heh heh... Let's see how much we've made recently.

Jahoda: I remember Boss saying she was going to give me a bonus. How about I help m—

Jahoda: Huh? Where's the money? There's nothing in here but a slip of paper...

Jahoda: "My dear Jahoda, your bonus doesn't come from this box. Be sure to close it properly afterward."

Jahoda: Pfft, Boss is trying to scare me again. Maybe there's a hidden compartment inside here somewhere...

Nefer: There isn't any hidden compartment in there. Your bonus is right here.

Jahoda: Oh, thanks Boss. I—

Jahoda: Eeek! BOSS!!! I-I-I was just doing a cash count!!!

Jahoda: I will get to work now, right now—

Nefer: Stop right there.

Jahoda: Yes, Boss!

Nefer: Lock the box properly.

Jahoda: Yes, Boss!

Nefer: Now you can go.

Jahoda: Yes, Boss!

(Obtain Mora ×100,000)

(Subsequent times)

Jahoda: Sheesh... How is it that Boss seems to know everything? When did she even get there...?

(If the player has already collected the finances): (I'll come back and check again later...)

How often do shifts change? Also daily reset?

Different characters will take shifts at the Curatorium of Secrets' reception desk. If the character has multiple dialogue sets, they will choose a random set per daily reset. If the desk is marked with a glowing spot, the player can choose to work a stand-in shift, during which certain playable characters may appear.

Amazing 'Bot

(Interact with the Amazing 'Bot on the counter): Stand-In Robot: "Running errand, back soon. — Jahoda"; Stand-In Robot: "If you need to contact Lady Nefer, please wait for me to get back."; Stand-In Robot: "If you want to play with Ashru, please wait for me to get back. Otherwise, we bear no liability for your injuries."

Ashru

Dialogue Set #1

(Interact with the Ashru on the counter)

Ashru: Meow...

(Perhaps Lauma can understand what Ashru's saying...)

Ashru: (Meow... Are you back here to ask for help?)

Ashru: (Just write whatever it is on this piece of paper right here.)

Ashru: (I can't help you, my claws are too sharp. I'd tear the paper to shreds.)

(Perhaps Columbina can understand what Ashru's saying...)

Ashru: (Meow... Are you back here to ask for help?)

Ashru: (Just write whatever it is on this piece of paper right here.)

Ashru: (I can't help you, my claws are too sharp. I'd tear the paper to shreds.)

Excuse... meow? Are we supposed to check in here?

Ashru: Meow...

Actually, I have a commission...

Ashru: Meow...

If you don't mind...

Ashru: Meow...

Thinking a cat might help was maybe expecting a bit much.

Ashru: Meow...

Never mind.

Ashru: Meow...

Never mind.

Ashru: Meow...

Never mind.

Ashru: Meow...

Dialogue Set #2

Ashru: Meow, meow meow—

Ashru: Meow? Meow!

Jahoda

Dialogue Set #1

(Talk to Jahoda): Jahoda: *sigh* We've had hardly any customers today, there's nothing for me to do.; Jahoda: I always say, if you're looking for a lost person or a cat, why bother coming to us when the Adventurers' Guild exists?; Jahoda: But standing here doing nothing is mind-numbingly dull!; It looks like you'd rather be working.; Jahoda: I wouldn't go that far! But if I go sneaking off, Nefer'll give me an earful...; Jahoda: (‍Traveler‍), how about you take over for a day and let me get some fresh air? Otherwise, I'm gonna die of boredom...; I'd rather not.; It's your shift, Jahoda.; Jahoda: *sigh* Alright, it was just a suggestion... I guess I'll get back to "work".; Jahoda: Come on, Ashru, how about you help me out?; Ashru: Meow meow? Meow. Meow~; Jahoda: Meow! Meow meow meow!; Ashru: Meow meow?; Jahoda: I knew I couldn't count on you... Alright, alright, go run off and play or whatever.

Dialogue Set #2

(Talk to Jahoda)

(If Lauma is not the active character)

Jahoda: Ashru, did the boss come back just now?

Ashru: Meow~ Meow meow, meow—

Jahoda: By the looks of things, she hasn't... Good, good, I made it back in time...

Ashru: Meow meow, meow~

(If Lauma is the active character)

Jahoda: Ashru, did the boss come back just now?

Ashru: (She's back~ You just haven't noticed~)

Jahoda: By the looks of things, she hasn't... Good, good, I made it back in time...

Ashru: (Human~ Silly~)

Dialogue Set #3

(Talk to Jahoda): Jahoda: I saw Boss Nef sneak into the back room, looking shifty — I think she grabbed something... Could she have been getting some money to pay my wages?; Jahoda: That must be it! Last time she promised to find me someone who can get a new pair of glasses made. Maybe she's getting ready to buy them for me?; Jahoda: Boss Nef! You really are the bestest, most awesomenest boss ever!

Dialogue Set #4

(Talk to Jahoda): Jahoda: Ugh... How does she know literally everything!? I'm done for this time...; Jahoda: I was planning to take a day off and go see Aino. I daren't ask now...

Dialogue Set #5

(Talk to Jahoda): Jahoda: ...Boss Nef'll be okay, right? I know she wanted me to stay at my post, but...; Jahoda: Screw it! I'll knock off early and go see how she is.; Jahoda: If she's still not feeling well, I might have to go ask Lauma to have a look at her...

Nefer

Dialogue Set #1

(Talk to Nefer): Nefer: Welcome to the Curatorium of Secrets.; Nefer: If you're looking to have a commission fulfilled, just leave a note in the message book over there.; It's rare to find you here...; Nefer: We have an important visitor coming today, and Jahoda has taken the day off.; Nefer: As such, the Curatorium's receptionist for the day is none other than myself.; Nefer: Would you look at the time? Our visitor should be arriving soon... I'll have to clear the place out shortly.

Dialogue Set #2

(Talk to Nefer after completing Archon Quest Song of the Welkin Moon: Act X - Truth Amongst the Pages of Purana): Nefer: As expected of someone from the desert, Jeht is very efficient at what she does.; Nefer: This was quite the unexpected find back in Sumeru. I suppose if I ever need something done in the desert in the future...; Nefer: ...Never mind. It's best that I steer clear of the desert. It's not the easiest place to conduct business anyway.

Traveler (Stand-In Shifts)

(Interact with the glowing spot on the counter)

Start Stand-In Shift

(First time)

Paimon: How come no one's here? What's this...

Paimon: Why's there a portrait of Paimon up here!?

And there's something written on the notice board...

(Opens the Curatorium of Secrets Message Board)

Paimon: Huh? How did Jahoda know we'd drop by? What if we didn't come?

There's more...

Paimon: "I saw you coming in just now. Please, please, please. Help me. Please, please."

It's like please-themed wallpaper...

We should help her out.

Paimon: Alright, but what are we supposed to do?

I don't know...

I guess we just wait here.

You stand behind the counter. After a short while, a customer walks in...

(Continues with one of the four customers below)

(Subsequent times)

Paimon: Argh... Why does Jahoda want us to cover for her again? Another sheet full of requests...

Her eyes really are sharp.

Well, we'll just have to help her...

Paimon: Let's go behind the counter, then. Hopefully we won't run into any trouble...

(If the player has not met all four customers yet)

You stand behind the counter. After a short while, a customer walks in...

(Continues with one of the four customers below)

(After meeting all four customers): It appears to be a fairly slow day with few customers. By the looks of it, you can already clock out.

Chevreuse

Chevreuse: Hello, (‍‍), Paimon.

Ch—Chevreuse!?

Let me rub my eyes...

Paimon: What are you doing in Nod-Krai, Chevreuse? A—Are you here to catch someone?

Chevreuse: Not quite. I'm here to scout out a location for the Special Security and Surveillance Patrol to conduct special training.

Chevreuse: The patrol has always trained in Fontaine — it's become far too routine.

Chevreuse: Now, when we train, everyone's moving their arms and legs, but they're not engaging their brains! They're just mechanically fulfilling their daily training quota.

Chevreuse: If things go on like this, the Patrol is going to lose the ability to react to sudden events and changing circumstances.

Chevreuse: That's why I plan to regularly take us beyond Fontaine's borders to train in unfamiliar surroundings.

Chevreuse: Lady Nefer's already helped me find a location, I'm just dropping by to pay for her services.

Chevreuse: Since you're the one on duty today, (‍‍), I'll entrust this money to you. Please make sure it gets back to her.

Uhm, okay...

But aren't you worried I might...

Chevreuse: I trust in your moral character.

Chevreuse: Alright, I'll take my leave. I need to return to Fontaine and get everything ready.

Gaming

Gaming: Hey there, Boss. That stuff I ordered a few days ago... Huh? (‍‍), Paimon, what are you doing here?

Gaming?

We're helping a friend...

Gaming: Is there any place you don't have friends? You make even more connections than us escort guards.

Paimon: Alright, that's enough. Now it's Paimon's turn to do the asking — what are you doing in Nod-Krai, Gaming? We're a long way from Liyue.

Gaming: Oh, well, I happen to know someone out here, and one of their elders has a birthday coming up...

Gaming: The old man doesn't want any fancy presents or a feast or anything — he misses home and just wants to see an authentic Liyue Wushou Dance.

Gaming: But both this guy I know and his elderly relative are getting on in years, and there's no way they're making the trip back to Liyue... So they asked me to visit Nod-Krai and put on a performance.

Gaming: Then, I heard from my escort friends about a job that would take us to Nod-Krai, so I decided to join them.

Did you have a safe journey?

Gaming: We ran into a few bandits on the way, but we sent 'em packing easily enough. No damage to people or goods!

Gaming: Anyway, back to business. I was hoping Lady Nefer could put me in touch with some local suppliers — I'm looking to pick up some quality wood.

Gaming: Once I get some wood, I can start building a stage, and then the performance can begin!

Let me jot that down.

Wood... Gaming...

Gaming: Thanks, (‍‍). The next time you're in Liyue, I'll treat you to... Huh? Is someone calling me...?

Gaming: It'll be the other guards out looking for me, sorry, (‍‍), I've gotta go!

Gaming: I'm coming! I'm coming!

Emilie

Emilie: (‍‍), Paimon, it's been a while since we last said hello.

Paimon: Emilie! Paimon hasn't seen you in forever!

It's great to see you again.

Paimon: Paimon and (‍‍) are helping out behind the counter today. If you need anything, just let us know!

Emilie: Thank you so much but I'm not here looking for help, quite the opposite in fact — someone asked me for help.

Huh? Did Nefer...

Emilie: Indeed. I'm here at Lady Nefer's invitation... to help investigate a case.

Emilie: To be exact, a wealthy man suddenly passed away in his home, and all traces of the crime were destroyed.

Emilie: The only clue is a strange scent that lingered in the room.

Emilie: And since he left behind a vast fortune that needs to be dealt with, his family invited Lady Nefer to find professionals to investigate — for a hefty fee.

Emilie: She's put together quite a team in that short amount of time.

Emilie: A formidable fighter from Fontaine, a smart scholar from Sumeru, an insightful investigator from Inazuma, a resourceful merchant from Liyue...

And... you?

Emilie: Yes! I'm the "Aroma Analyst."

Emilie: That said, I was planning on visiting Nod-Krai anyway to look for new ingredients for my perfumes. This investigation is a happy coincidence, I suppose.

Emilie: Could you take a note for me, (‍‍)?

Emilie: "Emilie has arrived in Nod-Krai and is ready to begin investigating."

I'll get it done.

Emilie: Many thanks. I'd love to stay and chat, but I'm afraid I need to head back and organize my tools.

Emilie: We should sit down and share a pot of tea, if you can find the time. I have a few stories I think you'd find most interesting.

Escoffier

Escoffier: This should be the Curatorium of Secrets... hmm?

Escoffier: (‍‍), Paimon? What a coincidence! I wasn't expecting to see you here...

Escoffier: What are you up to?

We're helping a friend.

We're working in Nod-Krai.

Escoffier: *sigh* You've fallen on hard times...

Escoffier: Oh, right, do you know a young robot lady, by any chance? She smells a lot like pancakes.

Escoffier: Like very... simple pancakes. Like pancakes made without too many fancy ingredients.

Escoffier: It's hard to find pancakes like that these days, so I was curious about the recipe she might be using.

Escoffier: Unfortunately, before I had the chance to ask, she'd already left.

Paimon: Pancakes... Robot lady... You must be talking about Ineffa!

Escoffier: So you do know her! Fantastic news! Where does she live? I'd like to pay her a visit.

Escoffier: She probably eats... Well she probably doesn't eat the same things as us, right? Should I take her some... machine oil?

You could take some food over to Aino...

Escoffier: Aino? Who might that be?

You explain who Aino is and her relationship with Ineffa. You also tell Escoffier where they live...

Escoffier: So it's like that... It isn't good for children to eat too many sweet things.

Paimon: Paimon thinks you're missing the point...

Escoffier: Still, that won't be a problem — I know how to make all sorts of delicious snacks that aren't sweet.

Escoffier: Let me find a kitchen to borrow, then I'll rustle up some snacks and make my way over to their workshop.

Escoffier: Wonderful! This trip to Nod-Krai has been excellent — not only did I get my hands on new ingredients, but I even learnt an extra-special recipe to boot!

Descriptions

An establishment with tendrils in thousands of tortes that will take on almost any commission — as long as the price is right. Even in secret-filled Nod-Krai, this place ranks among the most enigmatic of institutions. Mysterious rumors swirl about its owner, Nefer, though she says nothing regarding their veracity...
