Event Dialogue
Whirling Waltz
- Uncle Scimitar: Well, if it isn't Dehya's friend! So you're my boss this time?
I'm looking forward to working with you!
- Uncle Scimitar: You took the words right out of my mouth! However, you should be aware that due to certain personal habits... I might make some small mistakes.
- Uncle Scimitar: Like when playing the villain, I might get a bit too into it and end up scaring the guests... I've been known to comfort children into tears.
- Uncle Scimitar: Please forgive me if something like that ends up happening!
- I feel like we've met before...
- Uncle Scimitar: Really? Oh, yes!
- Uncle Scimitar: You're famous! And aside from that, you're often out and about. I've seen you quite a few times now, but you probably haven't noticed me before.
- Uncle Scimitar: There was this one time — before I knew you were Dehya's friend — where we even went toe to toe. You gave me a solid beating, as I recall. Perhaps I managed to land a small scratch or two...
- Uncle Scimitar: If so, I must apologize. Anyway, it's all water under the bridge now.
- Let's get rich together!
- Uncle Scimitar: Alright, I'll work hard to make that happen!

- Uncle Scimitar: Hold on a second... Boss (Traveler)? So you're the "VIP guest" Miss Nusta was talking about?
- We... met in Fontaine, didn't we?
- Uncle Scimitar: That's right! I was there to help a director with an event, and I even applied for a job at your movie theater!
- Uncle Scimitar: But running into you again here in south Natlan... Heh, what are the odds? If I'd known, I would've roped Dehya in too.
- Uncle Scimitar: Too bad she's tied up with something else. I'm sure she’d love this — and she'd totally hit it off with that pro surfer too!
- I did run into her recently!
- She's another busy bee, that's for sure!
- Uncle Scimitar: Isn't she? Over the years, there's been more and more contact between the rainforest and the desert peoples.
- Uncle Scimitar: Apart from her work managing the Blazing Beasts, she's also always coordinating things between the two sides alongside Miss Candace.
- Uncle Scimitar: That kinda work just isn't something simple folks like us get, y'know?
- Uncle Scimitar: As such, quite a few of us have started picking up things like arithmetic, hoping to help lighten Dehya's load as soon as we can...
- Uncle Scimitar: When that day comes, you'll see Dehya on vacation everywhere!
- Sorry, I'm not sure if we've met before...
- Uncle Scimitar: That's alright! I'm one of Dehya's lads. You're her most important friend, and that makes you our (big brother/
big sister) too! - Uncle Scimitar: We'll follow your lead when we're out there! After this get-together, just say the word, and your brothers here will be there to take care of any problem.
- That's alright, my good fellow. Relax!
- Let's just take it easy and enjoy this peaceful vacation, shall we?
- Uncle Scimitar: Fair enough... With your skills, you can handle enemies no matter where you are anyway. Besides, I could stand to relax a bit instead of being ready to draw my scimitar everywhere I go.
- Uncle Scimitar: Even Natlan's fiercest warriors are just focused on perfecting their combat skills. Honor is also very important to them as fighters.
- Uncle Scimitar: I guess this means I won't have to worry about Taraneh anymore, except maybe when she's traveling along that stretch of desert west of Wadi Al-Majuj. She might even be able to travel on her own someday...
- Taraneh?
- Uncle Scimitar: Oh, she's the daughter of one of my brothers. I've known her since she was a child!
- Uncle Scimitar: Taraneh's father took an arrow that'd have otherwise killed me...
- ...
- Uncle Scimitar: He spent a few years recovering after that. Unfortunately, he got a bit out of shape during that time, so he ended up going into the goods transport business instead.
- Uncle Scimitar: These days, he's doing pretty well over at Port Ormos, and even invites the whole lot of us over for a good meal and drinks every couple of months or so.
- Uncle Scimitar: In fact, he's the one who's footing the bill for Miss Nilou and the rest of them this time.
- (Lets out sigh of relief)
- Uncle Scimitar: Here's a funny story for you. After meeting little Nusta on the road, we decided to come to Natlan. Since we were going to dance, I thought we'd bring Taraneh along too..
- Uncle Scimitar: But because Taraneh ain't the most confident in her dancing, she wanted to ask Miss Nilou to be the consultant on this trip. But the poor girl was hesitant about that too, because guess what, she'd never even talked to her idol before.
- Uncle Scimitar: So we suggested that Dehya write a letter of introduction and send it along with a bunch of gifts. And it worked!
- Uncle Scimitar: Then, when they got here, they ran into that pro surfer too, and everyone really hit it off... It's been such a relief for Taraneh's father and I to see them so happy here.
- Uncle Scimitar: I reckon Taraneh will finally be able to shake off that rough patch she was stuck in after this trip.
- That's a good thing!
- I'm so happy for her!
- Uncle Scimitar: Yeah, it just goes to show how much spending time with good, cheerful friends and getting out can do for a person's head.
- Uncle Scimitar: That's alright! I'm one of Dehya's lads. You're her most important friend, and that makes you our (big brother/
- Alright, you must be busy, so I shan't keep you any longer. Let's chat again later!
- Uncle Scimitar: Don't worry about me! I'll be around whenever.
- (After We'll Dance Together Again!)
- Uncle Scimitar: Alright, I'll have to go prepare for the journey back.
- Uncle Scimitar: I'll see you again, (Traveler)!
