Profile

(TBA)

date and time?: Old Investigator: I don't understand why there's a need for the "retirement ceremony"!; Arken: Sir, please...

(Mon 6PM): Arken: I need some exciting news...; Arken: Where can I find some juicy news that everyone will talk about...?

(6PM): Arken: "New Eridu Citizens Review the City's Past..."; Arken: "Hollow Era Sales Skyrocketed by 300% This Month!"; Arken: What do you think of this headline?; That's incredible! Is it for real?; Arken: You bet! 300% increase, totally real!; So what were the sales figures, exactly?; Arken: Alright, just between you and me... we sold two copies last month and six this month.

(Interaction with Jo, 6AM): Arken: I never expected so many people to be interested in simulated Hollow combat.; Arken: It's been quite some time, and the hype from the VR trial event hasn't died down at all.; Jo: ...Yeah.; Arken: Why does it sound like you aren't happy about that?; Jo: Well... it's just that all the data comes from countless close calls in the Hollows...; Jo: And now it's just treated like a part of the game... I'm not really comfortable with that.

(Interaction with Old Investigator): Arken: *sigh*...Do you still not want to attend the onboarding meeting for the new Investigators? We were hoping to combine that with your retirement ceremony...; Old Investigator: No, no, no! Don't make me go through something like that! It's embarrassing.; (Arken looks troubled again); (This old man looks familiar); Arken: But the new Investigators could really use the wisdom and guidance from someone experienced like you!; Old Investigator: Well, instead of having them sit around listen to some outdated theories... why not take them to the Hollows to mine some Ether crystal stalagmites?; Old Investigator: How can they truly understand what it means to be an Investigator if they haven't touched the foundation of the city themselves?; Old Investigator: I've even come up with a name for the event — The Foundation of Everything! What do you think? Sounds super cool, right?; Arken: Well, if you insist...; (He keeps talking about the Ether crystal stalagmites, but...); (He and his comrades were the real foundation of New Eridu.)

(After initial interaction): Old Investigator: Ah, I would love to visit the ruins of the Old Capital again...; Old Investigator: I always feel like the echoes of the past linger there, waiting for me to bring stories of the new city.
