Dialogue
Dialogue Set #1
Available before completing The Mystery of Tecoloapan Beach
- Sakaw: The fog on the sea has thickened lately. A worrying sign...
- Sakaw: Could that legend be true?
What legend?- Sakaw: Err... Ah, that depends on what legend you wish to hear, outlander hero...
- Sakaw: Two reasons have been given for that floating island and the huge graffiti: One more akin to a story, and the other to a real legend.
- Sakaw: Which would you like to hear, outlander warrior?
- Let's hear the story...
- Sakaw: Hmm, there's always a romantic spin with stories... There, the origin of the graffiti on the foggy floating island is part of The Tale of Qoyllor and Ukuku.
- Sakaw: It is said that the girl named Qoyllor left a huge work of graffiti by the beach in order to contact her Father Sun.
- Sakaw: Her Father Sun saw the graffiti from the sky and thus whisked her away from the earth... That's sort of how the story goes.
- Sakaw: It is said that the unsettling mist was bestowed by the Sun Father upon the people of the surface, as punishment for stealing his daughter's power.
- About the real legend...
- Sakaw: As for the real legend... It is said that a long time ago, there was an evil sorcerer who disguised himself as a Wayob and bewitched the heroes of the tribe.
- Sakaw: Later, the tribal heroes had to seal the pitch-black wicked wizard within that giant graffiti...
- Sakaw: As to why the ocean surface has become like this... They say that it presages the moment when the evil wizard shall shatter the seal and escape its grasp.
- Sakaw: *sigh* Be it legend or story, the rising fog is never a good sign.
- Sakaw: Outlander hero... That place is probably fraught with danger, so you must take care not to get too close...
Dialogue Set #2
Available immediately after completing The Mystery of Tecoloapan Beach
- Sakaw: Oh, have you come to take pictures? Foreign tourists have come here before, wishing to do the same. That floating island is quite the view, after all...
- Sakaw: It's just a shame we didn't have Kamera previously - I had to ask a foreign merchant I knew to get me one.
- Sakaw: How about it, dear guest? Care for a picture? But you'll have to do it yourself. I'm not exactly a dab hand at photography...
- Strange, there's fog over the sea...
- Sakaw: Fog? What do you mean? There can't be fog with such a strong sea breeze...
- Sakaw: I have never seen fog over the sea since the day I was born.
- Sakaw: Might you have confused this place with the fog-shrouded area that Tezcatepetonco Range overlooks, by any chance?
- Perhaps...
- Sakaw: Hehe, if you ask me, I'd say you're just too nervous.
- Sakaw: You should loosen up — you're touring Natlan, after all.
