Dialogue
Quest DescriptionThe Damselette is having a spot of trouble in the Silvermoon Hall...
- (Approach Columbina)
- Maalaus: ...
- Paimon: Huh? Isn't that Maalaus? Has she been out gathering inspiration, again?
- The Damselette: Yes. But the little one has been like this ever since she came back... As if lost in thought.
- Paimon: Huh, maybe the theme this time is super profound... Y'know, like when a great artist realizes some fundamental truth about the world.
- Paimon: Come to think of it, Maalaus has given us a whole bunch of paintings. We could hold an entire exhibition at this rate!
- Paimon: Hehe, Paimon can't wait to tell everyone all about our little painter's rise to artistic stardom! Ah, but we'd need Columbina's permission first, of course.
- The Damselette: Hm? Why is that?
Well, 'cause they're nearly all paintings of you.- The Damselette: Oh... It's okay, I don't mind. It sounds intriguing.
- Maalaus: ~!
- Paimon: Oh, seems like Maalaus has decided what to draw! Quick, let's see what kind of paint we've got.
- Paimon: This time... Let's go for deep and tranquil colors!
Step DescriptionWhat will the kuuhenki's art look like...
- (Talk to Maalaus)
- (Traveler)}: (Deep, tranquil colors...)

- Maalaus: ~!
- Paimon: Yep, looks like a happy kuuhenki to Paimon! Hehe, wonder what kind of painting we'll get this time...
- Maalaus: ...
- Paimon: Oh, is it done already?
- Maalaus: ...
- Paimon: Maalaus seems a little sad. Is it because of the painting? Let's take a look...
- Paimon: Okay so, it's Columbina... taking a walk under the moonlight and gazing up at the night sky.
- The Damselette: Ah... I must be looking at the true moon beyond the false sky. I used to take midnight walks like that all the time.
- Paimon: Used to...? Oh, right...
- (Traveler): (Columbina is pretty much confined to this garden, now... even though Nod-Krai is where she was born...)
- The Damselette: Yes, I would gaze at the sky and wonder... What really lies up there on the true Frost Moon?
- The Damselette: Perhaps it's just like here, filled with lots of little animals...
- The Damselette: Or perhaps... there's nothing there at all.
- Paimon: Oh...
- You could always take a few up there with you?
- The Damselette: Ha... An interesting thought.
- The Damselette: But... Since the moon lies beyond the false sky, that's one adventure I would rather not risk taking them on...
- There could be other cute creatures up there...
- The Damselette: Mm, I hope so.
- The Damselette: And I hope... if there are, the creatures would welcome the sudden and unexpected return of their "Goddess."
- (Traveler): (One is a "home" where she isn't even free to move around... the other is a "home" she knows nothing about...)
- (Traveler): (...)
- Maalaus: ...
- Paimon: Maalaus and the other kuuhenki are really gonna miss you...
- The Damselette: And I will miss them too.
- The Damselette: But in the end, this is a journey that only I can make... and the answer at the end of it is mine alone to seek.
- The Damselette: And who knows? Whatever that answer turns out to be... Perhaps it will be something beautiful.
- Paimon: W—Well... We'll just have to come visit you, then! With Maalaus!
- The Damselette: Alright. We could hold that art exhibition on the moon, perhaps.
- Paimon: Yeah, great idea! It's a promise!
- The Damselette: Mm...
- The Damselette: I hope so, I truly do...
- (Quest completes)
