Dialogue
- You meet up with Yixuan at Port Elpis
- (Talk to Yixuan)
- Yixuan: (Wise, you're here.Wise, you're here. /
You're here, Belle.You're here, Belle.) 
Sorry to keep you waiting, Shifu!- Yixuan: It's okay. I just got here myself.
- Yixuan: Come to think of it, last time I was here someone invited me to join a fishing competition.
- Yixuan: It was my first time fishing, but I somehow managed to snag first place.
- I didn't know you were so good at fishing, Shifu!
- Yixuan: Not really... I just picked a fishing spot with great feng shui.
- Yixuan: I got lucky that day... Many other contestants didn't even catch a single fish.
- Yixuan: Alright, enough talk, let's take a look around.
- Yixuan: That lighthouse over there has a nice view... Let's head that way.
- (While following Yixuan)
- Yixuan: The tides ebb and flow, just like the ups and downs of fate.
- (Near the fries stall)
- Yixuan: Come to think of it... Yinhu really loves making french fries too.
- Yixuan: I wonder what the food's like at this place.
- (Upon arriving at the lighthouse)
- Yixuan: Hmm, the view up there must be pretty nice.
- (Talk to Yixuan)
- Yixuan: The scenery here is nice.
- Yixuan: Too bad the Hollow's blocking the view... otherwise this would be the perfect place to watch the sunrise.
- Yeah, that's kinda unfortunate.
- Yixuan: I was just thinking out loud.
- I could stay up all night with you to watch the sunrise!
- Yixuan: Hearing you say that makes the trip worth it... I'm just feeling a bit sentimental, that's all.
- Yixuan: Thee [sic] sun comes up like clockwork each morning, but we rarely take the time to watch it.
- Yixuan: My Shifu once taught me to live each day as if it were my last.
- Yixuan: In doing so, you can rediscover the beauty in the moments of everyday life, and avoid the sorrow of realizing their value once they're lost.
- Yixuan: That's why... I'll remember this moment. Going out with you today, it's a precious memory I'll cherish.
- It's beautiful right now.
- I'll remember this moment!
- Yixuan: You learn fast... That's why you're my disciple.
- Yixuan: Now you understand, just close your eyes and focus on the sound of the waves.
- Yixuan: Like the ebb and flow of the tide, fate is ever-changing... Even countless divinations can only glimpse a fraction of what's to come.
- Have you ever had your fortune told, Shifu?
- Yixuan: I rarely do divinations for myself... a diviner can't really divine their own fate, so it'd be pointless to try.
- Yixuan: If I ever learned my own destiny, I'd want to alter it... cause and effect intertwine, so no matter how much you struggle, you won't slip through the cracks.
- Yixuan: Ultimately, you'll find you can't change a thing — you're simply tossed by fate's waves, and all you're left with is regret.
- I see...
- Yixuan: Maybe this is the cosmos exacting revenge on diviners for peeking at fate's mysteries.
- I think you'll have good fortune, Shifu.
Significant Trust increase with Yixuan- Yixuan: You're a smooth talker... but fate's already been decided, and how "good" or "bad" it is depends on your mindset.
- Yixuan: That's why I learned early on to live in the moment and not overthink tomorrow. It's the sum of all those peaceful moments that's built my life.
- Yixuan: Just like I'll remember this moment... Maybe when I walk into darkness someday, this memory will become the strength that keeps me going.
- Don't worry, I'm sure fate is on your side!
- Yixuan: You sure have a way with words... not many people can comfort me like that.
- Yixuan: But since you put it that way, I'll take you at your word. If I ever face disaster down the road, I'll be counting on you — my disciple — to come to my aid.
- I'll be there!
- I'll make sure you stay safe!
- Yixuan: That's very reassuring.
- Yixuan: Don't worry, I was just joking.
- Yixuan: If a catastrophe does fall upon us one day, I'll be ready and make sure you get somewhere safe.
- Yixuan: When I finally meet the end of my own fate, I'll remember the words I shared with you today, the sights we've seen... and the comfort of knowing you're safe somewhere.
- Yixuan: That's good enough for me.
- Yixuan falls silent, quietly gazing out at the distant ocean — whether she's admiring the view or contemplating her ever-changing fate that lay ahead, you can't tell.
- Yixuan: It's getting late. Let's head back.
- Yixuan: We only came out today to unwind, we don't need to watch the sunrise. Just listening to the ocean with you is nice enough.
- Yixuan: I'll pick a good spot to watch from next time and let you know.
- (If "I see..." was selected)
Trust increase with Yixuan
- (Idle)
- Yixuan: Head back and get some rest.
