Dialogue
Quest DescriptionThe Easybreeze Album is filled with the happy memories of your time spent with everyone. At last, the time has come for prizes to be presented...
- (Pass time)
- Paimon: *yawn*... That rest was just what we needed! C'mon, let's go find the others. It's prize claiming time!
- Paimon: Paimon can't wait to find out what we're gonna get!
- (Approach Ukucha)
- Ukucha: Oh, it's you guys! Good morning! How's everything been these past few days?
- Paimon: Fantastic! Awesome food, nonstop fun... Living the carefree vacation life has been pretty great!
- Venti: Did anyone just hear that voice on the wind?
- Mualani: Huh? A voice? I didn't hear anything...
- Venti: Seriously? Listen, there it is again! "Venti, Venti..." It's the Aphimead calling my name!
- Paimon: *sigh*... C'mon, Venti. At least save the drinking talk until an appropriate drinking hour, will you...
- Chasca: Think of it this way — your bard friend could be in a bar somewhere right now. But, instead, he chose to be here with you. Says a lot, don't you think?
- Venti: Well, well, you really do have the eyes of a hawk. Just like a qucusaur, indeed!
- Asha: ♪
- Ukucha: Hehehe, looks like the Asha's in a good mood too.
- Bennett: Wanna tell the others about our little friendly competition just now?
- Asha: !
- Mualani: Haha, what's with that reaction? Now I'm intrigued!
- Bennett: Well, I was just getting ready to head out when the Asha started bouncing around the room, full of energy, and kept showing off his badge.
- Bennett: "Alright then, let's have a little contest. How do you wanna do this?" I said.
- Bennett: The last thing I expected was for him to stretch out his little hand... and challenge me to an arm wrestling contest!
- Paimon: So... Paimon's guessing you won?
- Bennett: Yeah, it was no contest. The size advantage was really unfair. I feel kinda guilty, honestly...
- Bennett: So, I was thinking... how about a graffiti contest instead! We can do it in a little bit. I've got the paint covered...
- Ukucha: Hahaha... Well, sounds like the fun isn't over yet! I'm glad to hear it's been a good stay so far.
- Ukucha: So, the main challenges in the four areas... I'm guessing you've completed them all?
We should be.- Here's the completed album.
- Ukucha: Great! Let me take a look...
- Ukucha: Huh!?
- Venti: Hm? Something wrong?
- Ukucha: This is... some kind of joke, right?
- Paimon: Aaaaah!!!
- Mualani: Geez, Paimon! Why'd you scream like that? Scared the life outta me... What's going on?
- Paimon: Sorry... Paimon's definitely a scaredy-cat, but this time it's deserved...
- Bennett: What in the...
- Mualani: Huh? ...How on earth did the photos turn out like that?
- Paimon: Right? It's like a whole different bunch of people...
- Chasca: Just calm down for a second, and take a closer look — the clothes, the poses... it really is us.
- Mualani: Then what's going on here?
- Bennett: Did someone paint over it? But... there's no trace of anything like that. The photo looks like this is exactly what the Kamera captured, but that doesn't make any sense...
- Chasca: What about the others?
- Let me see...
- Mualani: ...
- Chasca: ...
- Bennett: All four photos have changed.
- Paimon: Uhh, you guys have fun with that... Paimon's just gonna float over here and try not to think about how creepy this is...
- Venti: Could it be some kind of prank?
- Mualani: Is that the last one?
- (Turn the page again...)
- Bennett: ...
- Chasca: You'll have to excuse us, sir. We'll come back another time for the prizes.
- Chasca: Come on, let's talk over there.
- Paimon: So... Notice anything useful?
- Mualani: I can't make out the faces, but the outfits are unmistakable! They've gotta be from the People of the Springs, the Flower-Feather Clan, the Collective of Plenty, and the Masters of the Night-Wind...
- Bennett: The Tecpatl's Flintblades Adventure Team...
- Venti: Hmm?
- Bennett: It's the Tecpatl's Flintblades Adventure Team... We read about them back in Villa Guiztli, remember?
- Bennett: A group of friends from different tribes, united by a single goal — to make the name of their Adventure Team, the Tecpatl's Flintblades, known throughout all of Teyvat.
- Bennett: But, then a couple in the group had a baby, and decided it was time to move on. So, they planned one final journey as a farewell to a life of adventuring...
- Chasca: Mind if I take another look?
- Paimon: Here.
- Chasca: I knew I'd seen that place before. It's right here.
- Mualani: What do you mean? How's that even possible?
- Mualani: Bennett said the events described in those notes took place a long time ago. There wasn't even a resort here back then!
- Chasca: Doesn't mean it's not the same place. Just look at the terrain.
- Venti: Hmm... Well, that place doesn't look at all familiar to me...
- Chasca: I've flown past that area every day on my morning loop. I can show you exactly where it is.
- Paimon: Then, should we go take a look?
- Bennett: Yeah. Let's go...
- Venti: Now, hold on just a minute... Why don't we think this through one last time before we head out?
- Mualani: Mmm... Prank or not, the person who left these pictures must be trying to tell us something.
- Mualani: If this clue is pointing to a specific location, the only way to find out more is to go there ourselves, that's what I think.
- Venti: That's a fair point.
- Venti: But, we also need to consider that Chasca never noticed anything odd while out on patrol. And, presumably, someone managed to slip these photos into our album without alerting a single one of us...
- Chasca: So, we shouldn't underestimate who we're dealing with here... Is that what you're trying to say?
- Venti: Pretty much.
- So, we keep our guard up.
- (Bennett runs back to Ukucha)
- Paimon: Bennett?
- Bennett: The place we're heading to might be dangerous. Could you keep an eye on our Asha friend while we're gone?
- Ukucha: Oh, I'm sorry, I... I saw him head in that direction already... I thought, maybe, you told him to go there? He left just now, while you were talking...
- Paimon: Uh oh...
- Chasca: It's okay. We're headed there, anyway.
- Bennett: Let's try to catch up with him. Keep an eye out on the way!
- (Approach the central south Wavey Bay Teleport Waypoint)
- Bennett: Asha! Are you there?
- Bennett: Asha! Can you hear me?
- Bennett: ...
- Paimon: Don't worry, Bennett... Maybe he just got distracted by something. We'll find him soon.
- (Approach the marked location)
- Chasca: Well, here we are. This is the place.
- Mualani: It's so quiet... If someone lured us here, there's no sign of them...
- Chasca: Let's split up and have a look around. Don't go too far, though... and keep an eye out for any signs of the Asha.
- Mualani: It doesn't look like there's anything here...
- Venti: Asha! Come out, come out wherever you are!
- Bennett: ...
- Bennett: Was that...
- Paimon: Guys, get over here!
- Bennett: I hear something... A voice keeps calling out to me.
- Venti: What did I tell you? The Aphimead, it speaks to people!
- Bennett: No, it's not the mead... But, it is calling my name, and asking me to walk towards...
- (Bennett starts walking)
- Paimon: Look!
- (They stop at a rift)
- Maybe it's a Domain entrance, but...
- Mualani: What's that doing here...
- Bennett: The voice... it's coming from inside.
- Chasca: Careful. What if it's a trap?
- Bennett: No... It's not a trap.
- Bennett: The tone of the voice... There's no trace of malice, only care and concern...
- Paimon: Bennett, you're not thinking about going in there, are you? Uh, Tone-Deaf Bard, talk some sense into him!
- Venti: ...
- Bennett: ...
- Bennett: I know you're all worried about me, and I'm aware there could be danger ahead...
- Bennett: But I have this strange feeling like... The things I've been searching for, the voice calling my name, the mystery behind those pictures... The answers are here, inside this place.
- Bennett: My dads always tell me adventurers never shy away from a challenge or a chance to explore the unknown...
- Bennett: So, I need to go into this Domain, but I don't expect anyone to follow me... The last thing I want is to put you all in danger too.
- Paimon: What now?
- Chasca: "Adventure is all about teamwork." You said that yourself.
- Mualani: Yeah, I mean (Traveler) and Venti go without saying, but we're part of the team too at this point, right? We're not gonna let our captain go it alone!
- Bennett: You guys...
- Paimon: Alright, Paimon was going to try and talk you out of it... but she knows how hard it is to convince an adventurer not to go adventuring.
- Paimon: But, if there's treasure at the end of this adventure, we're getting a share too — don't even think about hogging it all yourself!
- Bennett: Well? What do you say, Professor?
- Venti: Come on, you really think Professor Venti would abandon a student in their hour of need?
- Venti: Save the thank-yous for the afterparty. Looks like someone else'll be picking up the tab again — lucky me, eh?
- Bennett: Haha, sure... Thanks, guys, it means a lot.
- Bennett: Alright then, is everyone ready?
- Let's go.
- Bennett: Okay!
- (Enter the Domain)
- Paimon: What... is this place?
- (The group finds themselves in a fiery land with dusty winds and constant lightning)
- Mualani: It's so hot... Feels like my lungs are being compressed... Whew, it's hard to breathe...
- Chasca: Be careful. I sense the Abyss.
- Paimon: The Abyss!?
- Chasca: Ugh, the air currents are all over the place. I can't get a fix on its exact location.
- Paimon: Could the Abyss be after Bennett? Wait a sec... Where's he gone?[Note 1]
- Mualani: Bennett!
- Paimon: Bennett! Are you there?
- Mualani: How did we get separated? We all came in together, right?
- Not good...
- (From Bennett's perspective)
- Bennett: (Where is this place? It feels like I've been here before...)
- Bennett: (Why does it seem so familiar...?)
- (Bennett looks up to see the shape of Rota Calamitas in the sky)
- Bennett: (Traveler)... Paimon...
- Bennett: Ugh... *cough* *cough*
- Bennett: (My throat... Ugh, it hurts...)
- Bennett: Anyone there...?
- Bennett: (Still no response, and no sign of anyone... Am I the only one who got separated from the others? Or did we all get split up?)
- Bennett: (No, no...)
- Bennett: (My heart's beating faster and faster, my back is drenched in cold sweat... and I can't remember anything... At this rate, I could pass out at any moment...)
- Bennett: (Feel like I need a moment to catch my breath...)
- Bennett: (I can't figure out if this counts as good or bad luck.)
- Bennett: (If I've ended up in a dangerous situation like this, even on my lucky streak, the others are probably in even greater danger...)
- Bennett: (I need to help them... I have to keep moving...)
- Bennett: (Come on, this pain is nothing... Just gotta keep pushing forward... I can do it...)
- Bennett: (I'm fine, absolutely fine... Everything is gonna be fine... I just need to find the others...)
- Bennett: Wait... for me...
- (From the Traveler's perspective)
-
- (Mualani points towards the Rota Calamitas in the sky)
- Mualani: Um, is it just me or did those weird stars just get darker? I've got a bad feeling about this...
- Venti: We can't just wait here. We have to keep looking.
- Paimon: Oh no, things are bad if Tone-Deaf Bard's getting serious...
- (After the cutscene)
- Paimon: This wind is so strong... Paimon can barely stay in the air!
- Mualani: Hang in there, Paimon. I've got your hand.
- Paimon: Thanks...
- (Approach the marked location)
-
- (The screen is suddenly covered by purple tendrils)
- Paimon: Waaaaaah!
- Paimon: Paimon thought she was gonna get swept away there... Gah, this place is so creepy...
- Chasca: I'll lead the way. Stay close, and whatever you do, don't fall behind.
- (Approach the next marked location)
-
- (The screen is suddenly covered by purple tendrils again)
- Paimon: ...Again!? Oh...
- Paimon: Paimon's stomach hurts... Feels like she's gonna puke...
- Chasca: It's getting more and more dangerous the further we go...
- Paimon: Tone-Deaf Bard, are you sure Bennett is up ahead?
- Venti: Hmm...[Note 2]
- Venti: Fate has drawn him back to this place. It is a trial he must overcome... But if he tries to go it alone...
- Venti: Hang in there, everyone! We need to pick up the pace.
- (Paimon makes her way forward, but the harsh wind pushes her back to where she started.)
- Paimon: Paimon... can't go any further...
- (Venti summons Der Frühling and plays, conjuring an Anemo dome as a shield from the worst of the wind)
- The Strains of the Lyre: ♪
- Paimon: Tone-Deaf Bard...
- Venti: ...
- Venti: Now, everyone, now!
- (An interactive cutscene begins)
- (After completing three quick-time events)
-
- (From Bennett's perspective)
- Bennett: You're saying... this place is my final destination?
- Voice That Echoes: Hahaha... Yes... Precisely...
- Voice That Echoes: "Lucky" little Bennett, the boy who cheated death itself...
- Voice That Echoes: You once slipped free from the grasp of fate and fled to a place beyond my reach... I imagine happiness came easy to you there...
- Voice That Echoes: It was sheer happenstance that allowed you to escape, but at last, fate has brought you back to face the death that should have been.
- Bennett: Haha, that's what you think... But I believe we all have to take fate into our own hands.
- Bennett: Being an adventurer... means rewriting the rules... It means discovering... and challenging what seems impossible.
- Voice That Echoes: Ah, always the amusing bunch, you adventurers... So much passion, so much spirit, yet in the end, so little to show for it... just like your parents.
- Bennett: Wh—What did you just say?
- Voice That Echoes: "Tecpatl's Flintblades"... What a laughable name. Hahaha... And ironic too, for the spark of their legacy dwindled long ago, and soon, I will snuff it out entirely.
- Voice That Echoes: Those who would have saved you are long gone. Behold, even your so-called "Wheel of Fate" lies in ruins.
- Voice That Echoes: Give up, Bennett... the child who cheated death...
- Voice That Echoes: Embrace your inescapable doom.
- Voice That Echoes: You are no match for me.
- Bennett: ...
- Bennett: I can't...
- (Bennett collapses as two human figures run toward him)
- (From the Traveler's perspective)
- Chasca: That light... Is that...
- (Two Asha and a barrier surround Bennett, who is on the ground unconscious)
- Mualani: The Asha! And look, one of them is Bennett's companion!
- Chasca: ...
- Paimon: Bennett! Bennett! What's wrong? Please, Bennett, wake up!
- Chasca: This isn't working... His vitals are weak.
- Paimon: Bennett! Come on, everyone, think of something!
- Venti: Does anyone have any kindling on them?
- Mualani: ...Kindling?
- Venti: What he needs right now is light, something to guide him through this fiery trial of fate.
- (Mualani brings out her Miniature "Sun" candle)
- Mualani: Will a candle work?
- Venti: Yes. Light it up, and the "sun" will guide him.
- Chasca: You sure that's gonna work...?
- I have faith in Venti.
- Chasca: ...Alright, then.
- Mualani: Let us pray for him.
- Mualani: As the sun sinks beneath the western shroud, let the sparks of flame guide us home.
- (Chasca, Mualani, Traveler, and Paimon each hold a lit candle)
- Everyone: And a blazing light burn anew to cleanse impurities of old.
- Venti: Lost wanderer, hear these words.
- Venti: Behold the sunlight, this blade of dawn, listen to the wind sing a familiar song, inhale a fragrance so sweet, so known...
- Venti: Follow me, please. Follow me home.
- (A cinematic plays)
- (Aroni flips through a photo album as her Adventure Team gathers by the campfire)
-
- Aroni: People say all kids do is cry
- Aroni: But when I think of you
- Aroni: My sweet child
- Aroni: All I remember is your smile
- Aroni: Watching the saurians ride the Spiritways
- Aroni: Or the feather from Uncle Chaco's hat dance in the wind
- Aroni: One night, as you smiled up at the stars
- Aroni: Your dad got lost in the sight as well
- Aroni: Were you drawn in by some greater meaning, I wondered
- Aroni: But, no. The stars were just smiling back
- Anja: Aroni, stop writing, and join us!
- Anja: Team Leader, give us a toast!
- Macani: Okay, then...
- Macani: May our homeland prosper, our friendship endure
- Macani: And may this be a journey we never forget!
- Aroni: Shh! He's laughing!
- Anja: I heard, babies that smile a lot are blessed with luck...
- Chaco: That's just superstition...
- Anja: It's true!
- Aroni: None of us know the reason
- Aroni: Behind all those smiles...
- Aroni: But I think, you can sense all the love around you
- Aroni: Can't you?
- Aroni: We love you so much
- Aroni: May you always be my happy boy
- (The scene shifts to the group in the Mare Jivari, cornered by creatures of the Abyss)
- Anja: Where did these Abyssal monsters come from?
- Macani: Run!
- Chaco: No good, exits are blocked!
- Macani: Aroni, the baby—
- Macani: Aroni!
- (Aroni falls the ground, and her baby begins to cry)
- Aroni: My child...
- Macani: Stay with me! I'm here! I'll protect you!
- Aroni: Leave me... Just keep him... safe...
- (Aroni's spirit opens her eyes to see the spirits of her friends around her)
- (She gently cradles her baby's face)
- Aroni: Gods, if you can hear my prayer...
- Aroni: Take my body, my love, and my memories as fuel
- Aroni: Even if my soul is barred from the Night Kingdom
- Aroni: Doomed to wander the desolate wilds...
- Aroni, Macani, Anja, and Chaco: I offer up all that I am...
- Aroni, Macani, Anja, and Chaco: ...That this child might live
- (A dark vortex fills the air, followed by a bright burst of energy)
- (The baby lies on the ground, surrounded by his family, who have taken the form of Asha)
- (His tears turn into laughter once more)
- Aroni: I have no doubt, you'll meet many good friends one day
- Aroni: Because I know
- Aroni: You're the luckiest child there is
- Aroni: Smile for me, my darling...
- Aroni: Let Mommy see it... one last time
- (Cinematic ends)
- Bennett: Mom...
- Bennett: Is this a dream?
- Aroni: It's not a dream, my darling, not at all... Oh, look how much you've grown....
- Bennett: ...Dad, Mom! It's really you!
- Macani: ...
- Macani: Come here, my boy. Give your old man a hug...
- Paimon: Whew... The air doesn't feel so heavy now. Paimon can finally breathe...
- Mualani: So, what we just saw was a...
- Venti: A memory left over from the past. Perhaps the Pyro Archon heard our prayers.
- Mualani: We owe her big time after this...
- Paimon: So that baby from Tecpatl's Flintblades turned out to be Bennett...
- Aroni: That's right. We strayed into this place all those years ago... and never made it out. All we could do was pour our dying hope into protecting this child... Our child.
- Aroni: Isn't it my turn to give him a hug now, dear?
- Macani: Oh... alright then...
- Venti: I know everything's been settled now, but this doesn't exactly strike me as the ideal place for a deep, meaningful conversation.
- Venti: Come on, everyone. Let's take this outside.
- (They leave the domain)
- Venti: Alright, this should do.
- Looks like there was a treasure at the end of all this, after all...
- Paimon: You mean Bennett, right?
- Aroni: "Bennett"... That's what your friends call you?
- Bennett: Yeah, it's the name my dads gave me. A group of older adventurers from Mondstadt raised me.
- Macani: Bennett... Hmm, Bennett...
- Aroni: "Blessed," that's what it means. Having a name like that... It shows those people care about you a great deal.
- Macani: It's a fine name, indeed.
- Aroni: I'm so happy for you, my darling Bennett. Seeing the strong young man you grew up to be, knowing you're surrounded by people who love you, it... It means the world.
- Bennett: Don't worry, Mom, I'm doing great. Everyone's always been so kind to me...
- Macani: Be sure to thank them, son, on behalf of myself and the rest of Tecpatl's Flintblades. Haha, just look at us, together like this!
- Macani: I've seen more than my share of miracles, it's true — but after what happened, I never thought I'd get a chance to talk to my son, let alone...
- Macani: Ah!
- Bennett: What is it, Dad?
- Macani: Our adventures together over the past few days... All the memories just came flooding back.
- Macani: And, speaking of... How could you call that arm wrestling this morning? That was full-on wrestling, my boy!
- Bennett: Uh... really?
- Paimon: Wait! Bit of a tangent, but Paimon just realized... This means Bennett's from Natlan, right?
- Mualani: Ohhh, and he's been disconnected from Natlan's Ley Lines all this time...
- Paimon: ...Which must be why he's always been so unlucky... until he finally came back!
- Venti: What are your thoughts about staying in Natlan, Bennett?
- Mualani: Oh, yeah... I could help introduce you to the Wayob! Would you rather go with the Masters of the Night-Wind or the Collective of Plenty?
- Bennett: ...
- (Bennett turns to looks at his parents)
- The Masters of the Night-Wind!
- The Collective of Plenty!
- Maybe he'd rather return to Mondstadt?
- Chasca: You don't have to answer that right away.
- Aroni: (Traveler), could I take a look at your album for a second?
- Sure, here you go.
- Aroni: ...Okay, all better now.
- Paimon: Aha, mystery solved! So the pictures were swapped, after all!
- Aroni: I should probably explain... After becoming Asha, we lost our memories, and our minds became so hazy we couldn't even remember who we were. All we had were our instincts to guide us...
- Aroni: But I was never as outgoing as Macani, and that was true even as an Asha. I guess some things, like your personality, never change...
- Macani: So... Where's this going, exactly? Aroni, what have you been up to?
- Aroni: From the moment I saw your group, I've been following you around, taking all kinds of photos of your adventures.
- Chasca: And since there are Asha everywhere in the resort... No wonder I didn't sense any danger.
- Aroni: A vague sense of familiarity, and a bunch of hazy memories... That was what drew me towards you.
- Aroni: When I followed you all here, it was like this place was beckoning me in, and it made me extremely uneasy...
- Aroni: Thanks to all of you, everything turned out fine. But the fact is, I put everyone in grave danger... and I'm so sorry for that.
- Mualani: Don't worry about it.
- Chasca: After everything you went through, it wasn't your fault...
- Venti: Exactly! The way I see it...
- Venti: If fate is a giant wheel rolling down the road, then I'd say, for Bennett, the bumpiest stretch is behind him. And that's all that really matters.
- Bennett: Thanks, everyone... And, um... Thanks, Mom and Dad...
- Bennett: I love you... So, so much...
- Aroni: I love you too, my darling son. And, here. This picture is for you.
- Aroni: I've always loved taking pictures of you... And, nothing will ever change that.
- Bennett: Mom...
- (The group watches as Bennett embraces his parents)
- (Traveler): ...
- Venti: "Child of reverie / Clutching tail feathers tight / Open not thine eyes ere night be gone."
- Venti: "'Til such gaze, enduring and unspoken / Cascading from on high / Ushers in the break of dawn."
- Paimon: You sure pick your moments to shine, don't you...
- Venti: Of course! I would hate for us to miss the next chapter of this story, after all. The wind is blowing it this way as we speak.
- Paimon: And, by that, you mean...
- Rhythmos: Whew... I found you, at last!
- Bennett: !
- (Aroni and Macani disappear)
- Paimon: Someone actually showed up!? Quick, don't let them see...!
- What's up?
- Rhythmos: Good heroes, sorry to interrupt! I'm just here to let you know that the grand opening of the resort is about to begin on Tete Isle. We're just waiting for you to join us, and then we can start the show!
- Mualani: Oh no, I totally spaced out! What time is it? Forget it... Let's just go!
- (Approach the Dance-Off Stage)
- Mualani: The Dance-Off Stage is all yours, (Traveler). We'll go get into position.
- Chasca: The moment we've all been waiting for.
- Bennett: You've got it, guys! Professor Venti and I will be in the crowd cheering you on.
- Macani: We'll also be—
- Aroni: Shhh!
- Macani: Ohhh...
- Macani: ♪
- (An interactive cutscene begins)
- (The Traveler's DJ booth begins flying through the air, following Mualani as she rides the spiritway)

- Mualani: Go, Sharky, go!
- Mualani: Woohooooo!
- Mualani: It's your lucky day!
- Mualani: It's showtime!
- (The Traveler passes by Venti and Bennett at The Dewdrop)
- Venti: Mm-hmm~
- Bennett: Pump it up!
- (They fly along with Chasca as she shoots Paint Bombs with her Soulsniper)
- Chasca: Time to fly.
- Chasca: Leave it to me.
- (The Traveler soars past Ifa on a cliff, surrounded by saurians)
- (They circle around Huha Hill and the Brewblossom fields, before finally returning to the Dance-Off Stage)
- (If the player fails the timing twice during Mualani's segment)
-
- Challenge Failed
- Mualani: Whoops! There seems to have been an accident... But don't give up, you can do this!
- (If the player fails the timing twice during Chasca's segment)
-
- Challenge Failed
- Chasca: Earth to (Traveler)! Let's give it another go.
- (A cinematic plays)
-
- Mualani: Now, let's hear it for the one, the only Pyro Archon!
- (Mavuika arcs over the crowd on her Flamestrider as Bennett gazes up in awe)
- Audience: - The Pyro Archon's here! -No way!
- Audience: Lady Mavuika!
- Mavuika: Good evening, friends!
- Mavuika: I hope you all liked that surprise
- Mavuika: Now, who's ready to come up here, and get this party started!
- Venti: You gonna go?
- Bennett: But, what if I end up jinxing it and mess up everything with the whole show...?
- (Bennett's parents take his arms and pull him towards the stage)
- (Traveler): A lucky star. That's who you are to us
- (Encouraged, Bennett runs towards the stage as the music builds)
- Mavuika: Let's hear it for our friend from afar!
- (Bennett does a spin and vaults onto the stage to roaring cheers)
- (Paimon, the Traveler, Venti, and Ifa join them onstage)
- (Asha gather around them and Bennett swings his sword, setting off paint explosions that light up the sky)
- Audience: Wowwwww!
- Audience: Beautiful!
- (Bennett and Cacucu are tossed in the air by the Asha)
- Cacucu: No way, bro...!
- (Cinematic ends)
- Mavuika: Well, we don't get to be on a stage together very often. Why don't we take a group photo?
- Mualani: Yes, yes, yes! I'll get the Kamera set up!
- Kachina: Wow, when did Mualani become such a natural photographer...
- Paimon: She's taken so many pictures on this trip, she's practically a professional at this point...
- Mavuika: Come on, scoot in towards the middle, everyone — Asha friends, you too!
- Bennett: ...Thanks, Pyro Archon!
- Iansan: Is Ajaw in another timeout?
- Kinich: Well, he's prone to unending rants whenever he's around Cacucu, and I think we can all agree the decibel level around here is high enough already.
- Chasca: Wait, where's Cacucu, then?
- Ifa: He's still having fun on the Asha trampoline. I wouldn't be surprised if he's speaking Asha by the time we get back...
- Ororon: Another language under the belt? Little fella's turning into quite the polyglot.
- Xilonen: So, no flaming hair today, Archon?
- Mavuika: Hehe, isn't it hot enough already?
- Varesa: Yeah, hot as a volcano...
- Mualani: Enough with the chit-chat! Everyone looking this way? Ready for the countdown?
- Mualani: Three, two, one...
- Paimon: Party time!
- (On a quiet beach away from the venue)
- Macani: ...We always hoped you would have good friends around you, and it seems like that came true.
- Bennett: Yeah... They're the best.
- Macani: You're not a picky eater, are you? And you don't stay up late every night, like your mom...?
- Aroni: Ahem...
- Macani: Uh... Alright, I'll stop with the nagging...
- Bennett: Dad...
- Macani: C'mere...
- Bennett: Can we... talk a little more?
- Macani: Got it.
- Macani: Listen up, son. And this is coming from one team leader to another...
- Macani: I know you're strong, and I know you're hardworking. But when it comes to leading a team, that alone's not gonna cut it.
- Macani: Remember what I said to you earlier, when you were down in the dumps? "Every journey is a lesson. Never lose sight of the bigger picture."
- Macani: Your team is going to look to you for guidance one day. It'll be up to you to earn their dedication and trust, and offer them words of comfort during times of struggle.
- Bennett: Mm... I understand.
- Macani: The name of our own Adventure Team, Tecpatl's Flintblades, embodies a particular idea — the striking of a spark, and the passing of the torch.
- Macani: But then we brought you into the world, a little spark of our own, and our thinking began to change.
- Macani: And we knew that what we wanted most of all... was not for you to be bound to our mission or legacy, but to forge your own path.
- Bennett: Dad...
- Macani: As a father, there are things I want to say to you, son. So, humor your old man for a bit, okay?... Heh, even though I'm not actually that old...
- Macani: Son, your mom and I have loved you all your life, even since before you were born. And as you grew up, you had friends to offer you love and support where we couldn't...
- Macani: Never forget them, and never forget your dads back in Mondstadt. It's thanks to them, after all, that you're blessed with such a lucky name.
- Macani: No matter where you go, or what path you choose, as your parents, we will always support you.
- Macani: So all that's left to say is...
- Macani: Trust in yourself, and be brave, my boy. Just like your friend said, you are our "lucky star"... forever and always.
- Bennett: *sobs*...
- Aroni: Look what you've done, you've upset him again!
- Macani: C'mon, that's not my f—
- Aroni: Not your what?
- Macani: N—Nothing... I'm just gonna... quit while I'm ahead.
- Aroni: Bennett?
- Bennett: *sobs* Yes, Mom?
- Aroni: Don't listen to your old man's rambling. I was always the smart one, and he knows it too.
- Bennett: Mom...
- Aroni: ...It's scary business, having a child, you know that? But, the moment I laid eyes on you, I was at peace.
- Aroni: Because in your eyes, I saw your Dad's courage and my curiosity, and I knew you would be able to overcome any obstacle. So, don't cry, my son.
- Bennett: I—I'm not. I'm smiling... See? I'm smiling...
- Aroni: I know you are... I've always known.
- Bennett: Is it time for you to leave already?
- Aroni: ...
- Macani: Haha... I've said all that needed to be said. Now, I can be at peace, too.
- Bennett: ...
- (Macani and Aroni's spirits disappear)
- Bennett: Trust me, Mom and Dad... Some day, I'm gonna be the most legendary adventurer in all of Teyvat!
- (Traveler): ...
- Paimon: Bennett...
- C'mon...
- Let's go keep him company.
- Paimon: Bennett, are you okay?
- Bennett: I... I'm fine.
- Bennett: They're finally at peace.

Bennett and Venti
- (Talk to Bennett or Venti south of the southwest Tete Isle Teleport Waypoint)
- Bennett: Professor, I think I get it now...
- Venti: Hmm? Get what?
- Bennett: Your poem. The eternal light falling from the heavens... That wasn't meant to be starlight at all, was it?
- Venti: Shh... Just feel it in your heart. A poem isn't so much a question with an answer... as a passing gust of wind. As long as you feel it, it'll always be with you.
- Bennett: I see... Well, I really appreciate everything you've done for me, Professor.
- Venti: Keep the poems coming, Bennett! I look forward to hearing even more of your work in the future.

Chasca
- (Talk to Chasca east of the Guiztli Ridge Teleport Waypoint)
- Chasca: Up for another challenge?
- How about I take a picture for you?
- Chasca: Sure, let's go with that.
- (The Traveler takes a photo of Chasca and gives it to her)
- Chasca: I was thinking of giving something like this to my "mom," but knowing her, she'd probably just raise her wings and give me a tongue-lashing for not visiting her more often instead...
- Chasca: So, I think I'll just hold onto this as a memento for myself.
- Sounds great.
- Chasca: Alright then, let's do this.
- (Starts a shooting challenge similar to step 4 of To Guiztli Ridge!)
- Alpaca Sheriff: Long, long ago, a band of outlaws rolled into town...
- Alpaca Sheriff: A sense of doom pervaded all, even the very dust that rose in their wake! Run, run for your lives! A storm, a disaster, a calamity... is coming for us all!
- Chasca: Ah, this is where the heroes come in, I bet.
- Paimon: Huh? The sheriff hasn't mentioned any heroes yet!
- Chasca: He will. I already saw the henchmen.
- Alpaca Sheriff: ...But, just as things start to appear dire, a hero steps forward, gun leveled straight at the bringers of ruin.
- Chasca: ...♪
- Chasca: Looks like we've got ourselves a challenge. Bring it on.
- (After completing the challenge)
- Alpaca Sheriff: And from that day forth, the townsfolk lived happily ever after.
- (If you hit more or the same targets as Chasca)
- Chasca: ...That should be all of 'em.
- Chasca: Good aim. You're not gonna be easy to beat.
- (If you hit fewer targets than Chasca)
- Chasca: Still a bit stiff? Don't worry, we can have a rematch once you're more warmed up.
- Paimon: That was all over way too fast!
- Paimon: Uh, why does it seem like the real storm, disaster, or calamity that rolled through here is you...
- Maybe later?
- Chasca: Sure thing. Whenever's good for you.

Iansan
- (Talk to Iansan next to the eastern Colorfall Cliffs Teleport Waypoint)
- Iansan: This place is incredible! Perfect for a bit of cardio, huh?
- Iansan: Around about my third lap, a few Asha started trailing me out of curiosity. But by the tenth, they all had collapsed by the roadside...
- Iansan: I'm letting them rest — for now, at least. Let's hope we see some progress tomorrow.

Ifa and Ororon
This dialogue is only available after completing All Good Reunions Follow a Search.
- (Talk to Ifa or Ororon next to the Dance-Off Stage)
- Ifa: Hey, dude, you told Granny about the opening ceremony, right?
- Ororon: Of course, but all she said was: "Playtime's for children." And after she said that, I didn't have the courage to tell her even the Pyro Archon agreed to come.
- Ifa: *sigh* Well, guess we could still bring her back a gift. Maybe an Asha headband? Not sure if that's her vibe...
- Ororon: Snacks might be a safer choice. Granny always needs something to nibble on while she's reading... or drinking...
- Ifa: Hmm... we'd better get Cacucu's opinion on this... Speaking of, where even is that dude? Still hanging out with the Asha?
- Ororon: Hehe. Don't worry bro. Cacucu can take care of himself.
- Ifa: Do you even hear yourself, bro? I'm more worried those Asha are gonna be all "bro-ified" once he's done with them...

Kachina
- (Talk to Kachina opposite the Dance-Off Stage)
- Kachina: This place is buzzing!
- Kachina: It's just a shame Ayo couldn't make it. Poor guy got a stomachache yesterday... I wanted to go trampolining together.

Kinich and Ajaw
- (Talk to Kinich or Ajaw next to the Asha Speedrun Info Board at Wavey Bay)
- Ajaw: This challenge looks like it'd suit you right to the ground, Kinich... Wanna try it together?
- Kinich: I know full well that you're planning to kick me in the back the moment I jump.
- Kinich: I bet you're also thinking about pulling out a plank or two so I end up plummeting to my early demise... Hmm?
- Ajaw: ...
- Kinich: You already tried that over at the Scions of the Canopy, remember? You should know better than to think I'd fall for that one twice.
- Ajaw: Curse you and your stupid vigilance! Who else acts like that on vacation!? Absolutely insufferable!

Mavuika
- (Talk to Mavuika at Me & Dew, across from Tlapalli)
- Mavuika: Up for a drink?
- I really didn't expect you all to be here...
- Mavuika: A little over-the-top, huh? Haha... But hey, telling you in advance would've ruined the surprise.
- Mavuika: Judging from the photos, it looks like everyone's really excited about this vacation!
- Any plans after this?
- Mavuika: It might be quite a short vacation for me, but stiill — I'd like to take this chance to unwind.
- Mavuika: So... What's the most challenging attraction at the resort? Any recommendations?
- About the "breeze"...
- Mavuika: Oh, on to the weather now, are we?
- Mavuika: There's been a cool, pleasant breeze blowing through the resort lately... Quite uncommon around these parts, I'd say...
- Mavuika: It would be great if this particular "breeze" could stick around in Natlan for a few more days.
- Hope you enjoy your vacation too, Mavuika.
- Mavuika: Hehe, thanks! I hope you and all your friends have a great time too.

- Mualani: Just in time! Can you take a picture of me?
- Sure, why not!
- Mualani: Thanks! How about... this pose!
- Say cheese!
- (The Traveler takes a photo of Mualani and gives it to her)
- Mualani: Lemme see... Wow, turned out great! You got the angle and composition just right. Thanks a bunch!
- Mualani: I think I'll put it right next to my bed... Ooh, or hang it on the wall...
- Mualani: Maybe I'll add some pink and blue paper as a backdrop, and a few seashells for the frame. Hehe, it's gonna be awesome!
- Mualani: Oh, and one more thing. Thanks for making this a summer I'll never forget, (Traveler)...
- Mualani: It's been amazing!
- Maybe later?
- Mualani: No worries! All that matters now is having fun!

Xilonen
- (Talk to Xilonen southeast of the Dance-Off Stage)
- Xilonen: I don't often get to take time off, so I think I'll start by finding a nice spot for a nap...
- Xilonen: Hold on, something about the Dance-Off Stage looks off... Could it be the bearings? No, wait, it must be the stand...
- Xilonen: *sigh* Guess I'll have to go check it out... How many times have I told them to actually read the manual when they're operating this thing!? But, apparently, nobody listens to me, yay...
