Profile

Janusz is a senior Ratnik of the Lightkeepers and Oskari's master. One day on a patrol in Dreadshade Mire, they both have an encounter with the Serpent of All Evils and flee. Janusz gets badly injured near one of the sealing pillars in the area. The Traveler finds him and offers to escort him out, which he declines. After telling the Traveler how to establish the seal in Dreadshade Mire, he leaves to find Oskari.[1]

After the Traveler defeats the Serpent of All Evils, Janusz and Oskari arrive and thank them their help.[1]

Dialogue

Available after completing To Turn Each Sin Against the Sinner

Oskari: Oh! (‍Traveler‍)! S—So it was you...
Oskari: I thought I heard someone nearby, and for a second I feared it might be a monster...
Janusz: Hmm? Patrolling means keeping an eye out for monsters. Honestly, Oskari... you still get startled way too easily.
Janusz: I've mentioned this before. No matter how bad things look, keep your composure. If an enemy notices you're shaken, it'll only make things harder.
Oskari: But... you also said that we can intentionally look weak when things aren't in our favor to get the enemy's guard down, giving us a chance to hit back.
Janusz: ...Ow, my wound flared up again just now.
Oskari: What!? Master, didn't you get better already? Why is it suddenly...
Janusz: I was just kidding.
Oskari: That's not funny...
(They start patrolling the area)
