Last updated 2025-08-31

A Distant Cry for Help is a Combat Commission at Blazewood, that can be started by talking to Ono.

Steps

  1. Talk to Ono at Blazewood
  2. Complete Wilderness Pursuit
  3. Check on Appon and Ono

Pre-Commission Dialogue

(Idle)
Ono: Ehn-na? (You're Old Demir?)
Old Demir: Yeah! What's on your mind?
(Talk to Ono)
Ono: Ehn-ne? (They all say you know everything around here, right?)
Icon Dialogue Commission What would you like to know, Bangboo Wanderer?
Old Demir: Ah, got a little Bangboo Wanderer around this time... What'd you want to know?
Old Demir: About the old Overlords' secrets? Mayor vanishing overnight? Or the emotional drama between the current mayor and the Overlord?
Ono: Nhu-nah! Ehn-ne-ne? (Not any of that! Just wondering... if you've spotted any outsiders lately?)
Old Demir: Outsiders? Loads of them around!
Old Demir: The New Eridu Geography reporter, HIA explorers, Volatility Nitro-Fuel loyal fans... and some girl peddling strange relics, calling them "lost tech"!
Ono: Ehn-ne? (Have you seen a man in blue pants, carrying Sparkstones?)
Old Demir: Sparkstones?
I see... you're after a wandering merchant who hangs with Biker Gangs.
Old Demir: Here's the deal... For your business, I'd suggest you get this first...
"The emotional drama between the current mayor and the Overlord!"
Ono: Nhu-nha! (No, no! That's not what I'm looking for!)
Ono: Ehn-na... Nhe-nu-na! En-nah... ehu... (Appon is my... something like my master! We got caught in a sandstorm, ended up in the Hollow... then got split up!)
Ono: Nhu-na... Ehn-na-nhu? (You really haven't met him? Black hair, blue pants, looking bored, and carrying a few Sparkstones...?)
Ono: Sorry, little one... never seen anyone like that.
The little Bangboo, looking defeated and low on power, turns away as if he has lost all his hope.
(This little guy looks so pitiful. Let's help him.)
Ono: Ehn-ne? (Who are you?)
Icon Dialogue Talk I'm the one who'll help you find Appon.
Ono: En-nah? Nha-nuh... (For real?! But I have nothing to pay you...)
Ono: En-nah... Nhu-na-ne? (Perhaps... I'll sell some of my parts?)
Ono: Ne-nhu... ne-nhu-na... (But I'm not a high-end Bangboo, and I'm pretty worn out... Even my best parts aren't worth much...)
Icon Dialogue Talk It's noticeable...
Icon Dialogue Talk But really, no reward is necessary!
Ono: Ehn-ne? Ena! (Really?! It's a deal then! Wait for me to change into something more convenient for moving, and we'll set off immediately!)

Dialogue

(After Wilderness Pursuit)
(Idle)
Appon: *sigh*
(Talk to Appon)
Appon: Ah, you must be the Proxy who guided me out of the Hollow, right? Thanks to you, I...
Icon Dialogue Talk Thanks to Ono.
Icon Dialogue Talk Your Bangboo asked me to lend a hand.
Ono: Ehn-ne! (Yeah, it's not the time for some goof to end his journey yet!)
Ono: En-na-nah, nhu-ne? (We've made it back to the surface and were brought straight to our original destination, thanks to our great helper! What's still on your mind?)
Appon: But I lost my Sparkstones...
Appon: With those Sparkstones and my savings, I could have got enough money to buy a house in Blazewood paired with the latest Blazewood charging station...
Appon: Then you'd have your place, Ono.
Ono: Ehn-na... En-nah-ehn? (So, you're saying I was so close to having my own spot... and my exclusive charging station, and now they're all gone?)
Appon: Hm...
Ono: Nhu-nah, en-nhu-nah? (And I'll need to carry my spare batteries and backup generator, patch myself up, get my waterproof paint done, and keep wandering alongside you?)
Appon: Hm...
Ono: Ehn-na! (That's awesome!)
Appon: Huh?
Ono: Ehn-na... nhu-ena-nhu! (I mean... Oh! Now we need to start saving from scratch again for that charging station!)
Appon: Yeah... almost had it all sorted...
(ProtagonistProtagonist): (But Ono looks thrilled...)
