Creation Nymph/"Bloodbathed Battlefront" Castrum Kremnos

Don't turn back...

Catch!

Elderly Nymph: Young warrior there: Why do you choose to turn back, crrk? Could it be you're still reluctant to leave...

(╯︵╰)

Elderly Nymph: Once you go to war, there's no turning back, just as there is no way to calm things down easily once a dispute arises. And so, this is our fate...

(Obtain Dried Sagelore Fruit ×2 and Credit ×5000)

Why is there no end in sight...

Catch!

Hardworking Nymph: This pathway really does go on and on. I've been climbing goodness knows how long, but still haven't hit the end yet.

(ง๑ •̀_•́)ง

Hardworking Nymph: ...Legendary voyages are destined to be difficult. Looks like I'll have to keep working hard at it.

(Obtain Rough-Brew Ambrosia ×2 and Credit ×5000)

The light of equality shines!

Catch!

Fair Nymph: Crrk crrk — When it comes to building design, there are three things to consider: Fairness, fairness, and fairness.

٩(╹▿╹)۶

Fair Nymph: Just like the two ends of a scale. Suppose there is a treasure on one side of the stairs then so, too, must there be something on this side... like a bug!

(Obtain Steelclaw Dagger ×2 and Credit ×5000)

What a wondrous structure...

(After the Bulldozer Nymph is rolled over by a ball from the nearby Ball-Holder Statue)

Yeowch!

Bulldozer Nymph: Whoa! It's moving! It's really moving!

(๑>ᴗ<๑)

Bulldozer Nymph: The perfect angle! Exquisite design! Crushing is an art form!

(Obtain Chrysos Heir Dolium ×2 and Credit ×5000)

This must be a dream...

Catch!

Nightmare Nymph: I... I have seen a terrifying image: Darkness engulfing the sun. A glorious palace reduced to ruins. Everything sliding inexorably towards this void...

Nightmare Nymph: What a lonely sensation! It's like the ancients gazing up to the stars for the first time only to find them all extinguished...

( ´•̥ × •̥` )

Nightmare Nymph: But the sun still beams down brightly... It must have all been a dream.

(Obtain Veil Bundle ×1 and Credit ×5000)

I can fly!

Catch!

Wishfly Nymph: Seeing as I have wings, I should be issuing a challenge to the sky: I vow to pluck out the eye of the heavens above!

(((゜Д゜;)))

Wishfly Nymph: It's time to take the first step in my bug life... What's going on — I can't open up my wings!

(Obtain Oronyx Slate ×2 and Credit ×5000)

Victory is at hand!

(Upon destroying the shields on the wall)

Chess Bug: What a perfect game. The professional player levels their judgement with courage and... what are you doing!?

(•́へ•́╬)

Chess Bug: The red side clearly has a major advantage... I can't go on with my commentary!

(Obtain Golden Honeycake ×2 and Credit ×5000)

Were there cows in this world...

Investigate

Catch!

Cow Nymph: Crrk! Legend has it that the mythical beast carved by that statue actually existed once, but I've never seen a live one before... I guess warriors must've wiped them all out?

( ^_^ )

Cow Nymph: Praise be to those warriors, who've provided a safer world for us to live in.

(Obtain Rough-Brew Ambrosia ×2 and Credit ×5000)

This world has many secrets...

Catch!

Esoteric Nymph: Listen up, and I'll tell you a story about a cover-up that only the wisest people know about: What is the relationship between the Titans of Romance and Reason?

Creation and creator.

Student and teacher.

Friends and lovers.

All of the above.

( ´ -灬- ` )

Esoteric Nymph: Correct! You discovered the hidden beauty here — now don't share it with anyone else.

(Obtain Oronyx Slate ×2 and Credit ×5000)

Not this moment

Catch!

Philosopher Nymph: Crrk crkk — One can never set foot in the same river twice. Nor can one ever observe the world beyond the cave by torchlight alone...

_(:3 」∠ )_

Philosopher Nymph: ...If you wish to arrive at the other side of truth, you must first find the pathway leading towards the truth.

(Obtain Earth Crystal Ore ×2 and Credit ×5000)

...

Catch!

Sculpted Nymph: *puff* Finally, a chance to catch my breath. I've been standing dead still for ages in the competition of endurance against those other statues...

Sculpted Nymph: I didn't know they'd all start moving as soon as you walked into the room... What an easy win.

Sounds like one-third of that win belongs to me.

Sculpted Nymph: Crrk! When you put it like that, you're not exactly wrong...

But you can't move at all.

Sculpted Nymph: Crrk crrk — How could you say such a thing! We're jiggling around happily when you aren't looking!

( • ̀ω•́ )

Sculpted Nymph: Anyway, I won this contest all thanks to you!

(Obtain Earth Crystal Ore ×2 and Credit ×5000)

This is their base camp?

Catch!

Resentful Nymph: I heard the Spearlord is one bad egg. I want to fight against them - today - to see who's the baddest of the bad.

Resentful Nymph: But I've been waiting here all this time, and they still haven't shown up. Could they be cowering in awe at my reputation?

(Bartholos appears and takes the Resentful Nymph, leaving a silver coin in its place.)

Wh—what?

"Spirithief" Bartholos: By the Great Zagreus!

(Rewind the Spirithief)

"Spirithief" Bartholos

"Spirithief" Bartholos: Ooh, err... How did you do that?

"Spirithief" Bartholos: I saw you burrowing into the Thieves' Tunnel, but you returned to the same spot in the blink of an eye... I—It gave me a fright! Could you be Oronyx's kin?

I am Oronyx's kin.

"Spirithief" Bartholos: I knew it! No mortal could have such powers.

I am Oronyx in the flesh.

"Spirithief" Bartholos: To have descended from godhood and possessed a mortal shell, it's no wonder I didn't recognize you.

I am, the Galactic Baseballer!

"Spirithief" Bartholos: Th—The Galactic Baseballer! I've heard so much about you!

"Spirithief" Bartholos: I apologize for not recognizing you, please forgive me. I sought this weaver of Mnestia simply to seek its wisdom. If you have more urgent business, please go ahead!

You believed me that easily?

Is the plan this time to play dumb?

"Spirithief" Bartholos: You were just kidding? You gave me such a fright.

"Spirithief" Bartholos: If you're unwilling to reveal your identity, I would not pursue the matter. But you seem to recognize me?

You're the infamous bandit hero.

"Spirithief" Bartholos: You flatter me! I'm but an amateur thief, a far cry from the true masters of the craft.

A petty thief that's never succeeded.

"Spirithief" Bartholos: It's true... I'm but an amateur thief, a far cry from the true masters of the craft.

"Spirithief" Bartholos: Seems like you don't know much else either...

"Spirithief" Bartholos: *sigh* The air around here sure is eerie. A band of warriors mechanically fighting to their deaths as if possessed by madness. Even the sculptures on the walls can talk, whispering things like "Warrior... Warrior... Come closer"...

"Spirithief" Bartholos: It's obviously a trap! Who'd dare go close?

"Spirithief" Bartholos: I thought I also heard halting whispers from the depths of the earth, its voice husky, words faltering... I don't even dare mention what they may mean. You'd better get out of here fast!

(Obtain Stellar Jade ×40 and Celestial Ambrosia ×60)

(After "Spirithief" Bartholos returns the Resentful Nymph...)

Scary...

Catch!

o(⊙﹏⊙)o.

Resentful Nymph: Crrk... Is that who the Spearlord sent over? Super scary...

(Obtain Chrysos Heir Dolium ×2 and Credit ×5000)

The other nymphs don't want to play with me...

Catch!

Insecure Nymph: *sigh* I can't really talk to other bugs. Only you, my friend, are willing to hear me out...

╥﹏╥

Insecure Nymph: Who said you're a failure! If you're a failure, then what the heck does that make me, who can only be friends with failures?

(Obtain Dromas Steak ×1 and Credit ×5000)

Fire is the best...

Catch!

Firegazer Nymph: See that fire over there? How often does it light up?

Every 2 seconds?

Every 4 seconds?

Every 8 seconds?

(´・ω・`)

Firegazer Nymph: Thank you for your earnest guess. The correct answer is: I don't know either, because I don't have any fingers to count on!

There's no fire at all!

(´・ω・`)

Firegazer Nymph: What? It's really gone? This is an omen of great woe! How could this have happened...

(Obtain Kremnos Shield ×1 and Credit ×5000)

Where's my bridge?

Catch!

Architect Nymph: Crrk crrk — Did you know that a building's design can affect the mood of its visitors? And this gorge before me is impacting my mood...

ლ(ಠ_ಠლ)

Architect Nymph: Who designed this? How do we get through!

(Obtain Veil Bundle ×1 and Credit ×5000)

Number 73,200...

Catch!

Accountant Nymph: Crrk crrk — See that stack of rocks over there? They're all really important materials and need to be carefully counted.

(=´ω`=)

Accountant Nymph: Once the war is over, everyone can build bigger houses out of them, and nobody will ever go cold again.

(Obtain Kremnos Shield ×1 and Credit ×5000)

Just a little more oomph!

Catch!

Contactor Nymph: Crrk crrk — Listen carefully: Add intellect, fortitude, speed, and resolve...

d(`･∀･)b

Contactor Nymph: Add more resolve, and add more again! Keep adding that, don't stop!

(Obtain Dromas Steak ×1 and Credit ×5000)

The life of a nymph is endless toiling...

Catch!

Labor Nymph: Crrk crrk — That's the life of a bug: Repeating fruitless labors over and over again, rolling that stone up the hill over and over again...

(｡í _ ì｡)

Labor Nymph: There's nobody who can free me from this duty... But it sure would be great if you could help me push the stone back.

(Obtain Dried Sagelore Fruit ×2 and Credit ×5000)

World conquest, here I come!

Catch!

Worshiping Nymph: Crrk crrk — Wheresoever my master's sword points, that is where my heart rests. What can stop such a mighty king?

(｡í _ ì｡)

Worshiping Nymph: ...No, no, I don't think the master I serve wields a sword? I can't quite remember...

(Obtain Golden Honeycake ×2 and Credit ×5000)

Have to maintain the connection...

Catch!

Meridian Nymph: Crrk crrk — Bridges are vital to a city. Just like how even the greatest ruler still needs a secret escape route, if we become isolated from each other, then the steps of "Death" shall swiftly follow.

● _ ●

Meridian Nymph: That's the beauty of the "Janus' Hidden Passage." The separated will all eventually be connected into one, whether they like it or not...

(Obtain Steelclaw Dagger ×2 and Credit ×5000)

The Creation Nymph found next to the Garmentmaker will have different idle quotes depending on how many nymphs have been found in this area:

(If one or less nymphs have been found)

It's lonely being a nymph...

(When 2-19 nymphs have been found)

You have found [number] nymphs so far!

(After all nymphs are found, before solving the prophecy puzzle)

Crrrk...

Crrkrrk!

Crrrrrkkkk!

Please stop that, my brethren...

(After all nymphs are found, after solving the prophecy puzzle)

My family is all here!

After all nymphs are found, "Bloodbathed Battlefront" Castrum Kremnos's Creation Nymph next to Prototype Garmentmaker in "Eternal Holy City" Okhema will display one of the text below:

• I feel it...
• (>＾_＾)>
• (●'◡'●)ﾉ
• (・ω・)つ

The two Creation Nymphs found next to the Garmentmaker display the following for the prophecy puzzle, when interacted with, after collecting all nymphs:

Investigate

These two nymphs were once tight-knit as iron chains, but could not see one another for reasons unknown. Blessed is destiny, that we are able to witness their union once more.
