Dialogue

Daytime

Rafiq: Hi, need some commercial ship repairs done?

(Before completing Where the Boat of Consciousness Lies)

And you are...

Rafiq: I'm a ship craftsman. I'm responsible for ship repairs and maintenance.

Rafiq: When there's no work to do, I'll carry out new research on such questions as how to expand a ship's cabin capacity without compromising the structural integrity of the hull...

Rafiq: But I'm no researcher after all. I don't have a lot of theoretical knowledge, no means to conduct experiments, and I have no friends who study in Kshahrewar...

Rafiq: I've submitted a request to the Akasha Terminal, but it seems to believe that I know enough already...

Rafiq: With regards to my daily work alone, it is indeed enough. But I really want to make some new breakthroughs...

(After completing Where the Boat of Consciousness Lies)

You are...

Rafiq: I'm the ship's craftsman. I'm responsible for ship repairs and maintenance.

Rafiq: When there's no work to do, I'll carry out new research on such questions as how to expand a ship's cabin capacity without compromising the structural integrity of its hull...

Rafiq: But in the end, I'm no researcher. I don't have a lot of theoretical knowledge, no means to conduct experiments, and I have no friends who study in Kshahrewar, and now that Akasha has been shut down...

Rafiq: But Qishan says that this may not be a bad thing. Now that the Akasha Terminals are gone, she says, everyone is free to obtain whatever knowledge they desire.

Rafiq: And you know what? I think she's got a point there!

Not at the moment.

Rafiq: Okay. Come find me if you do.

Nighttime

Rafiq: If only we could find a way to increase the cabin capacity...

Qishan: Wouldn't that affect the ship's hull though?

Qishan: At least, simply changing the material wouldn't cut it.

Rafiq: But based on my calculations, if this cabin here could be opened up to the one next door...

Rafiq: But you said that wouldn't work, so maybe it really isn't possible...

Rafiq: Speaking of which, does everyone in Liyue know as much about ships as you do, Qishan?

Qishan: Ahem... Not necessarily.

Qishan: After all, we have people working in all sorts of industries in Liyue.
