Dialogue
A merchant caravan seems to have met with some mishap on the path to the volcano...
- (If the player approaches from the west side)
- (Approach Cuchihua)
- Cuchihua: What am I gonna do... What am I gonna do? The boss is definitely gonna beat me up when I get back...
What happened?
- Cuchihua: *sigh* It's a long story... Our caravan was moving along just fine when the volcano erupted out of nowhere. Then, these massive purple Tepetlisaurs burst out of the ground...
- Cuchihua: I wasn't paying attention, and my saurian partner got spooked and carried me far from the group. By the time I got us turned back around, the path was completely blocked, and now I can't get back to the others...
- Cuchihua: I don't even know how everyone else is doing... and I ditched the group without permission... The boss is gonna kill me. I'm done. This is it. I'm dead.
If it were me, I'd just run...
- Cuchihua: Run? No, no, no, that's impossible. The boss is like the Night Kingdom — everywhere, all the time. She'll hunt me down and drag me back no matter where I go...
- Cuchihua: I've gotta go back and apologize. But how? The road's blocked... Ugh, I'm so dead this time...
- (Smash through the Pulverite, optional)
- Cuchihua: The road is open? Praise be! We're saved!
- (If the player approaches from the east side)
- (Approach the scene)
- ("Little One"): Rawr! Rawr!
- (Little One runs towards a downed Tatankasaurus nearby)
- (Talk to Abeni near Little One, optional)
- (Traveler): (The injured Tatankasaurs look extremely exhausted.)
Share Phlogiston.
- (Traveler): (It blinks, as if to thank you.)
- (The Tatankasaurus gets up and leaves)
Leave.
- (Talk to Abeni while indwelling a Saurian, optional)
- (Traveler): Ugh... Ow, ow...
Share Phlogiston.
- (Traveler): Th—Thank you...
- (The Tatankasaurus gets up and leaves)
Leave.
- (Talk to Itsaho or Masose at the tent, optional)
- Masose: Oh no, Itsaho, there's still so much missing from the list... H—Help me look for them, would you?
- Itsaho: *sigh*... Don't waste your time. I already checked. Most of them were fragile goods. Do you really think any of them are still in one piece after the eruption and the crash?
- Itsaho: Save your energy and take a break. We've got a long road ahead of us once the boss and the others get back.
- Masose: N—No way! F—Fine, if you're not going, I'll just go myself...
- (Open the Exquisite Chest near Masose and Itsaho, optional)
- Masose: Hey, you over there! St—Stop! This stuff is ours! Hands off! I'm warning you...! I—I could totally qualify for the Night Warden Wars!
- Masose: You try taking our things, and I'll... I'll show you what for!
- Itsaho: *sigh*... What's going on today? First a volcanic eruption, then a purple Tepetlisaurus... and now a bunch of bandits? What rotten luck...
- Itsaho: Masose, (he/
she) looks pretty tough. I don't think we can take (him/ her). Besides, we're just here to watch the competition, not get involved... - Masose: H—How can you say that, Itsaho? This is OUR stuff! And anyway, it's two against one here. We might actually stand a chance!
- Itsaho: Where are you getting that "two" from? If anyone's getting beaten up, it's just you. Don't drag me into this...
- Itsaho: Uh, hey, (sir/
ma'am), we don't want the stuff anymore. If you want it, just take it. Just don't hurt us, okay?
This has to be a misunderstanding...
Hmm, quite the bright spark, aren't you?
- Paimon: Hey! Don't make it sound like we're the bad guys here!
- Paimon: You've got it all wrong! We're actually helpful adventurers, not some random villains!
- Masose: And why should I believe yo— Ow! The heck did you hit me for, Itsaho!?
- Itsaho: If they were up to no good, they'd have already beaten you up. Why would they even waste time talking to us?
- Itsaho: To be honest with you both, our caravan got scattered not long ago. If it's not too much trouble, could you help us pass a message to our boss? Just let her know we're waiting for her here — we'd really appreciate it.
- Itsaho: You can take the things in the box — consider them our token of thanks.
- Paimon: Oh, that's easy enough. Leave it to us!
- (Talk to Zashari near the rock, optional)
- Zashari: *panting*
Are you alright?- Zashari: I—I'm okay, just got a bit flustered from running earlier. Need a moment to catch my breath...
Best get enough rest.- Zashari: Um, th—thanks for your concern...
- (Talk to Tizlo under the wooden platform, optional)
- Tizlo: Hey! You, yeah, I'm talking to you! It's dangerous out there, get inside, quick!
- Tizlo: Haven't you seen the mess along the way? There's been a volcanic eruption, and there are monsters blocking the road. You shouldn't go any further.
- Tizlo: Listen to me. Stay here for a bit and wait. In a while, you can head out with the rest of our caravan. That way, we can watch each others' backs. Otherwise, it's way too dangerous to go alone.
Monsters?
- Tizlo: Yeah, a whole pack of purple Tepetlisaurs! They've clearly been corrupted by the Abyss! Insanely destructive. Honestly, I've never seen any of their kind this terrifying before!
- Tizlo: Let me tell you, those things casually swung their tails and completely wrecked our carts. They're even stronger than Tatankasaurs — definitely not the kind of opponents just anyone can handle.
- Tizlo: I'm serious — don't get all hot-headed and try to fight them. If you see them, just steer clear, alright?
No worries, I'll be fine.
- Tizlo: You... *sigh*... alright, just be careful out there...
- (Approach Itzayah and the Tenebrous Mimesis: Geovishap Hatchling)
- Itzayah: Come on! Don't think that just because you've grown a bit and dressed yourselves in purple I'm afraid of you! Come face me — if you've got the Cacahuatls!
- Itzayah: You picked the wrong woman to mess with! You want my goods? Come and get 'em!
- (After defeating the second wave of enemies)
- Itzayah: Hey! Watch out! Those good-for-nothings are back again!
- (After defeating all the enemies)
- Itzayah: Phew... what a mess to deal with. To think that I almost got knocked flat by some Tepetlisaurs... That just boils my blood!
- Paimon: You've got it all wrong — those are Abyssal monsters! They're way more dangerous than Tepetlisaurs. So you thought they were just ordinary ones... No wonder you struggled!
- Itzayah: Hah, is that it? Makes sense now. I really owe you this time. If it weren't for you guys, I'd have been done for.
- Itzayah: Hold on a sec, I need to go round up those useless idiots first. I'll thank you properly once I make sure they're all safe.
- With your help, the people from the caravan gradually gather around.
- Tizlo: So, it's all thanks to these three that you made it out safe, boss?
- Itzayah: Haha, that's right! You should've seen them in action — took down those monsters in just a couple of moves!
- Tizlo: You saved the squad leader. That's a debt I haven't much to offer in repayment for. But please, take this small gift as a token of my gratitude.
- Itzayah: Seriously, Tizlo? Have you always been this stingy? That's all you're giving to the people who saved your life!?
- (The screen goes dark and a treasure-spawning sound plays)
- Itzayah: Hey, chubby! Ensuring the caravan's safety is your job, isn't it? So what's this about someone else having to clean up your mess? What do you have to say for youself?
- Cuchihua: I—
- Itzayah: Quit stuttering! If you hadn't panicked and dropped your guard, a few measly monsters wouldn't have been a problem for me! This time, you're giving up part of your pay to thank our savior. Got it?
- (The screen goes dark again, and a treasure-spawning sound plays)
- Itzayah: Of course, such a small token as a life-saving gift does seem a bit stingy, doesn't it?
Indeed, it feels a bit lacking.
- Itzayah: Haha, well said! I like people like you — you say it how it is!
No, this is more than enough.
- Itzayah: Tsk, you're not really very forthright, are you? That's no fun. Just take it already! Otherwise, if word gets out, people will label me a cheapskate.
- Itzayah: Ahem, anyway, this is a personal gift from me to you. Just accept it! Consider it a little something extra for your little Tepetlisaurus to get some more snacks. No need for any thanks or formalities!
- ("Little One"): Rawr!
- Itzayah: Alright, we still need to go pick up all the stuff we lost along the way. We'll be heading off now! May we meet again!
- (The screen goes dark one last time, and a treasure-spawning sound plays)
- (Quest completes)
