UI Quest Quest Description

(Enter Silvermoon Hall)
Kuuhenki: ~!
Kuuhenki: !!!
Media:vo snwq101 2 paimon 01.ogg Paimon: Wow, it's so lively here today! All those kuuhenki are dancing around Columbina!
Media:vo snwq101 2 paimon 02.ogg Paimon: Uh, wait a sec... That's not dancing. Looks more like they're trying to... bury her alive in a pile of cuteness!
Media:vo snwq101 2 columbina 01.ogg The Damselette: H—Help me...
Icon Dialogue Talk White Give me your hand.
Media:vo snwq101 2 columbina 02.ogg The Damselette: Phew... Thank you...
Media:vo snwq101 2 paimon 03.ogg Paimon: Why were the kuuhenki acting like that just now...? They're not usually that energetic, are they?
Kuuhenki: ~!
Media:vo snwq101 2 columbina 03.ogg The Damselette: Well...
Media:vo snwq101 2 columbina 04.ogg The Damselette: I decided to play a game with the little ones, and it seems they became quite invested...
Media:vo snwq101 2 paimon 04.ogg Paimon: Crowding around you like that after playtime... Kinda like puppies, aren't they?
Icon Dialogue Talk White Maybe that's their way of showing gratitude.
Media:vo snwq101 2 columbina 05.ogg The Damselette: Mm... Only this time, their gratitude felt more like getting caught in an unexpected snow drift...
Media:vo snwq101 2 paimon 05.ogg Paimon: You say that, but Paimon bets you never pass up a chance to spoil them!
Media:vo snwq101 2 columbina 06.ogg The Damselette: In any case, would the two of you like to give it a try?
Icon Dialogue Talk White You mean... being surrounded like that?
Media:vo snwq101 2 columbina 07a 1.ogg The Damselette: Hm... That can be arranged. You just need to get the right answer.
Icon Dialogue Talk White You mean... playing a game with the kuuhenki?
Media:vo snwq101 2 columbina 07b 1.ogg The Damselette: Yes.
Media:vo snwq101 2 paimon 06.ogg Paimon: Oh, sure thing. It'll be cool to see what sort of game's got the kuuhenki so obsessed.
Media:vo snwq101 2 columbina 08.ogg The Damselette: Go on now.
Kuuhenki: ~!
Kuuhenki: !!!
Media:vo snwq101 2 columbina 09.ogg The Damselette: All you need to do is guess the image.
Media:vo snwq101 2 paimon 07.ogg Paimon: Huh? B—But... it's way too abstract!
Media:vo snwq101 2 paimon 08.ogg Paimon: Did you actually manage to get the right answer when you played, Columbina?
Media:vo snwq101 2 columbina 10.ogg The Damselette: No, I guessed wrong more often than not.
Media:vo snwq101 2 paimon 09.ogg Paimon: Huh, well Paimon's gonna quit while she's ahead... Why don't you take a guess, (‍Traveler‍)?
Icon Dialogue Talk White It's... a Rimehorn Deer.
Kuuhenki: !!!
Media:vo snwq101 2 paimon 10a 1.ogg Paimon: Whoa, that reaction must mean...
Media:vo snwq101 2 columbina 11a 1.ogg The Damselette: Congratulations, your answer is correct.
Icon Dialogue Talk White It's... a Long-Necked Rhino.
Media:vo snwq101 2 paimon 10b 1.ogg Paimon: Yikes! A Long-Necked Rhino with a serious neck injury, maybe!
Media:vo snwq101 2 columbina 11b 1.ogg The Damselette: Hmm... I've never seen such a creature before.
Media:vo snwq101 2 columbina 11b 2.ogg The Damselette: The correct answer was "Rimehorn Deer."
Media:vo snwq101 2 columbina 11b 3.ogg The Damselette: Come back now, little ones.
Icon Dialogue Talk White A harpoon with one prong bent backwards.
Media:vo snwq101 2 paimon 10c 1.ogg Paimon: You sure have a wild imagination...
Media:vo snwq101 2 columbina 11c 1.ogg The Damselette: Heh... An amusing answer, to be sure.
Media:vo snwq101 2 columbina 11c 2.ogg The Damselette: The correct answer was "Rimehorn Deer."
Media:vo snwq101 2 columbina 11c 3.ogg The Damselette: Come back now, little ones.
Kuuhenki: ~!
Kuuhenki: !!!
(If Rimehorn Deer or Long-Necked Rhino was chosen)
Media:vo snwq101 3 paimon 01.ogg Paimon: Hehe, guess this means we did good?
Icon Dialogue Talk White They really are so soft and squishy.
(If harpoon with one prong bent backwards was chosen)
Media:vo snwq101 3 paimon 02.ogg Paimon: Wait, we get a reward even though we got it wrong? Huh, well... Paimon doesn't mind a consolation prize.
Icon Dialogue Talk White Who's a good little kuuhenki...
Media:vo snwq101 3 columbina 01.ogg The Damselette: The kuuhenki have taken a liking to you.
Media:vo snwq101 3 columbina 02.ogg The Damselette: I can feel it... They are at ease in your presence.
Media:vo snwq101 3 columbina 03.ogg The Damselette: Just as Rimehorn Deer fawns are given to bathing in the moonlight, so too are the kuuhenki drawn to that which radiates from your heart.
Media:vo snwq101 3 paimon 03.ogg Paimon: Oh? And what would that be, exactly?
Media:vo snwq101 3 columbina 04.ogg The Damselette: A certain kindness and gentleness, I suppose.

(Enter Silvermoon Hall)
Kuuhenki: ~!
Kuuhenki: !!!
Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 01.ogg The Damselette: The kuuhenki and I were just playing a picture-guessing game. Would you like to join?
(Random Set #1)
Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 02.ogg The Damselette: Go on now, little ones.
Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 03.ogg The Damselette: See if you can guess what this picture is.
Icon Dialogue Talk White The moon.
Kuuhenki: !!!
Media:vo snwq201 3 paimon 01a 1.ogg Paimon: Hmph, that was way too obvious!
Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 04a 1.ogg The Damselette: I'm afraid this riddle was a little too simple for us.
Icon Dialogue Talk White Unagi.
Media:vo snwq201 3 paimon 01b 1.ogg Paimon: Hey, what's wrong with this eel's waist?
Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 04b 1.ogg The Damselette: You two possess an impressive wealth of knowledge...

Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 04b 3.ogg The Damselette: Come back now. You did a wonderful job.
Icon Dialogue Talk White An arc.
Media:vo snwq201 3 paimon 01c 1.ogg Paimon: Anyone with eyes can see it's an arc! How could the answer be something so simple!?
Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 04c 1.ogg The Damselette: While you aren't technically wrong, I'm afraid that's not exactly what the kuuhenki were going for.
Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 04c 2.ogg The Damselette: The correct answer is "the moon."

Media:vo snwq201 3 paimon 02a 1.ogg Paimon: How did you manage to guess that!?
Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 07a 1.ogg The Damselette: So that's what it's called. Does it pick its creator up and carry her around in its hand?
Media:vo snwq201 3 paimon 02a 2.ogg Paimon: Paimon thinks you might be confusing Aino with a former colleague of yours...
Icon Dialogue Talk White A Weasel Thief who's eaten too much.
Media:vo snwq201 3 paimon 02b 1.ogg Paimon: Could a Weasel Thief this stuffed still steal stuff?
Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 07b 1.ogg The Damselette: Or perhaps it no longer needs to steal?
Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 07b 2.ogg The Damselette: The correct answer is "the big mechanical duck next to Aino's workshop."
Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 07b 3.ogg The Damselette: Come back now. Thank you, I know that wasn't easy.
Icon Dialogue Talk White A flask.
Media:vo snwq201 3 paimon 02c 1.ogg Paimon: Whoa, the kuuhenki learned what specialized lab equipment looks like just for this game? They're really going all out!
Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 07c 1.ogg The Damselette: That's... very close.
Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 07c 2.ogg The Damselette: The correct answer is "the big mechanical duck next to Aino's workshop."
Media:vo snwq201 3 paimon 02c 2.ogg Paimon: How is that close!?
Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 07c 3.ogg The Damselette: Come back now. Thank you, I know that wasn't easy.

Icon Dialogue Talk White The Kuuvahki Experimental Design Bureau.
Kuuhenki: !!!
Media:vo snwq201 3 paimon 03a 1.ogg Paimon: Did you play this with the kuuhenki before and forget to tell us?
Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 10a 1.ogg The Damselette: The structures the Fatui have raised in Nod-Krai are far too... bold. Even the kuuhenki can remember them...
Icon Dialogue Talk White A Floating Anemo Fungus.
Media:vo snwq201 3 paimon 03b 1.ogg Paimon: Uh... The body's got some resemblance, but is their cap really that round?
Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 10b 1.ogg The Damselette: You got the "floating" part right, at least...
Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 10b 2.ogg The Damselette: The correct answer is the "Kuuvahki Experimental Design Bureau."
Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 10b 3.ogg The Damselette: The structures the Fatui have raised in Nod-Krai are far too... bold. Even the kuuhenki can remember them...

Icon Dialogue Talk White An umbrella.
Media:vo snwq201 3 paimon 03c 1.ogg Paimon: The handle seems a little short for an umbrella. How's anyone supposed to hold it?
Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 10c 1.ogg The Damselette: An umbrella... isn't something I often use. Why not just make a kuuvahki shield when it rains?
Media:vo snwq201 3 paimon 03c 2.ogg Paimon: Wait a sec! We can use that to keep the rain off, too!?
Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 10c 2.ogg The Damselette: The correct answer is the "Kuuvahki Experimental Design Bureau."
Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 10c 3.ogg The Damselette: The structures the Fatui have raised in Nod-Krai are far too... bold. Even the kuuhenki can remember them...
Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 10c 4.ogg The Damselette: Come back now. You really outdid yourselves.
Once the game is over, the kuuhenki rush toward you. They appear to be extremely happy.

Media:vo snwq201 3 columbina 12.ogg The Damselette: I hope we can have just as much fun playing together next time.
