Gray

(Monday, 6AM)

Gray: It's a good thing I don't work for Three Gates.

Gray: I don't need those guys forcing me to work faster...

(Thursday, 6PM)

Gray: Just because a work assignment is tough, doesn't mean you can be sloppy about it.

Gray: If there's any safety issues, the whole project will have to be shut down and fixed.

(Friday, 12PM)

Gray: I can get a decent bento next week...

Gray: That's is [sic] the best motivator for getting work done!

(Sunday, 12PM)

Gray: (Burp...)

Gray: Ugh, I get sleepy as soon as I eat too much.

Sixth Street Station

(Monday, 12PM)

Gray: Did you get the ticket from the payment desk?

Construction Site Bangboo: Ehn-ne! (Got it!)

Gray: That's good to hear...

Construction Site Bangboo: Ehn-ne-ne... (Safety will complain if we forget the reimbursement voucher...)

(Seems like an employee of Belobog Industries.)

Gray: Anyway, there is no room for us due to the extra materials loaded on the truck...

Gray: But didn't Anton say we could grab a taxi back?

Construction Site Bangboo: Uhn-nah... (If you want to find a ride that can fit me... and your vehicle, I'm afraid we'll need a truck.)

Construction Site Bangboo: Uhnnn-nah! (I'm so thankful for the New Eridu metro! It's such a great and reliable infrastructure!)

Brant Street Construction Site

(Tuesday, 12PM)

Gray: I like chatting with the heavy machinery.

Gray: Every piece of them chimes and clinks like a symphony on the construction site.

Gray: Unfortunately, I haven't caught sight of them much recently.

(Tuesday, 6PM)

Gray: Those rundown buildings in the Hollow are still standing strong.

Gray: They followed the highest construction standards back then when Brant Street was being built. Those houses were highly sought after during the pre-sales.

Uhhh...

Gray: And now they're "happy homes" for the Ethereals.

HIA Commemorative Coin

(Idle, 12PM)

Gray: Thump, thump... Thump, clang, thump...

(Talk to Gray)

Gray: Thump, clang, clang... Thump, thump, thump... Clang, clang, clang!

What are you doing?

Gray: Oh, I'm sorry! I didn't notice you were here as I was busy composing music.

Music?

Gray: Right! I might not look it, but I'm Belobog's foremost "construction site musician."

Gray: Knocking on steel pipes, operating the drills... I can turn any building materials and tools at the construction site into musical instruments. It's a very profound discipline!

Tell me more.

Gray: To be a construction site musician, you must have a thorough understanding of all the "instruments" and their different sounds.

Gray: For instance, rebars and steel bars have distinctive sounds, and the position where you strike will also affect the pitch... Once you get the hang of it, you can even pull off vibrato!

Gray: You're interested, huh? Fancy a shot at striking the steel and trying a simple song?

Okay!

Gray: Haha, way to go! I knew you were a beast deep down inside!

Let me put in some earplugs first...

Gray: Earplugs? Those things can't block out the vibrating sound that hits you right in the head.

Gray: Great percussion music can tug at people's heartstrings! There was a time I performed with steel during a construction in a Hollow. My music was so impressive that it sent the surrounding Ethereals fleeing in all directions!

Gray: Take this coin and use it to beat the steel bars like a plectrum! Remember to take your time figuring out the sound and rhythm!

(Obtain HIA Commemorative Coin ×1)

(Talk to Gray again, optional)

Gray: Have you got a feel for hitting the steel bars?

Not yet.

Gray: Hahaha, no sweat. You won't be disturbing anyone since this is a wasteland.

I've got the hang of it!

Gray: Wow, you're a quick study!

Gray: Once you've mastered the basics, I'll show you how to make electronic music with the recoil of the power drill!
