Dialogue

(Talk to Guardian and Carol before completing The Hollows Bank)‍[verification needed]
Guardian: Your brother's been deployed on a long-term mission. He won't be home for a while.
Carol: But... it's been so many years now. He didn't even come see me when I got discharged from hospital last year...
Guardian: Your brother is doing all this for New Eridu... You were so young when the old capital fell, and won't remember much before the hospital, but it was all a huge disaster.
Guardian: From that moment, your brother... made a decision to join a long-term campaign.
Carol: So when will he come back, then? I can barely remember what he looks like...
Guardian: Carol...
Carol: Alright. I know he's out there somewhere doing amazing things. I can wait for him to come back!
(Talk to Carol after completing the Hollows Bank,‍[verification needed] Afternoon)
Carol: Are you an investigator, too?
Icon Dialogue Talk No...
Icon Dialogue Talk Sort of?
Carol: If you can go into the Hollows, then you might have seen my brother inside.
Carol: He's an investigator, and he's been deployed to Hollow Zero on a long-term assignment!
Carol: I forgot to introduce myself — I'm Carol.
Icon Dialogue Talk Carol from hospital bed A2-1402?
Carol: So you HAVE met my brother?!
Icon Dialogue Talk Tell her the truth
Carol: So that's what happened...
Carol: I'd guessed as much I suppose. I'm not some eight-year-old kid anymore. My teacher always uses the same excuse, but I'm not fooled.
Carol: It's just, I always thought he'd come back one day if I pretended not to know...
Carol: I have a diary that he left behind. He wrote a lot in it about his exam preparations, becoming an investigator, and about helping people trapped in Hollow disasters...
Carol: I can't remember what he looks like anymore. All these years, I've always seen him in my imagination as an investigator.
Carol: So... He didn't end up becoming what he'd hoped for in the end...
Icon Dialogue Talk Your brother was good to you.
Carol: No need to comfort me! Thank you for telling me the truth.
Carol: I should say... finding out has only made me double down on my convictions.
Carol: I have to become an investigator so I can go into the Hollows and give my brother a piece of my mind!
Icon Dialogue Talk Tell her a white lie
Carol: So... is his mission going smoothly?
Icon Dialogue Talk It'll take some time.
Carol: I see... But that's okay! It's his dream, after all, so of course he's going to go all out.
Icon Dialogue Talk His dream?
Carol: I have a diary that he left behind. He wrote a lot in it about his exam preparations, becoming an investigator, and about helping people trapped in Hollow disasters...
Carol: So... even if he doesn't come back for a long time, it's okay. I'm glad he's become the person he wanted to be.
Carol: Plus, I'm getting ready to sit my exams once I'm discharged from hospital!
Carol: Perhaps one day, my brother and I will meet inside a Hollow. When that time comes, he's gonna be so surprised.
Carol: Thank you for telling me about my brother! I'm determined to work hard!
