Dialogue

Icon Dialogue Agent Meet Velina at Emerald Central Park

Meet up with Velina at the entrance of Emerald Central Park and take a look around at the scenery.
You meet up with Velina at Emerald Central Park
(Talk to Velina)
Velina: Emerald Central Park is always the city's most beloved place for recreation.
Velina: The reason is simple. This place has the highest concentration of vegetation in all of Roscaelifer.
Velina: Even far from the earth, people are drawn to nature.
Icon Dialogue Talk I think it's pretty lit.
Icon Dialogue Talk I've never thought about it much.
Velina: Hmm... The relaxed environment is also key.
Velina: Let's be off then. Stick to this path; there's a great view up ahead.
(While following Velina)
Velina: Please follow me.
Velina: No running in the park.
Velina: Due to limited visibility, there are occasional incidents of Bangboo being... "stampeded" so to speak.

(Upon arriving at Fountain of the Bottle Cap Fairy)
Velina: This sculpture...
(Talk to Velina)
Velina: The aesthetics of this sculpture are... one of a kind.
Icon Dialogue Talk I guess that's art.
Icon Dialogue Talk Because I don't really understand it.
Velina: How modest of you. I'd say very few people would question the artistic tastes of a video store Manager like yourself.
Velina: Actually, this sculpture is popular among Bangboo citizens. Many imitations have cropped up.
Velina: The urban legend of the wishing well might've drawn its inspiration from this as well.
Icon Dialogue Talk Wait, it's all coming back to me now!
Icon Dialogue Talk Port Elpis has sculptures like this too!
Velina: Oh? So it has a deep connection to a port so far away? Now that's something I've never heard before...
A distinguished Bangboo gentleman glides smoothly into the conversation.
"Grandson of the Sea God": Enneh-nah! (That's right, this statue and the one at Port Elpis stand facing each other from afar, both symbols of the Sea God, and I am the last of their lineage: the grandson of the Sea God themselves!)
Icon Dialogue Talk As everyone knows...
Icon Dialogue Talk New Eridu is a small world...
"Grandson of the Sea God": En-nah?! (Wait... No way. Do you know the Scion of the Sea God, my father?!)
"Grandson of the Sea God": Enna! (Just as I thought! It's clear from your aura that you are deeply intertwined with the destiny of the Sea God's lineage!)
Velina: This citizen... he...
Icon Dialogue Talk Don't worry about him.
Icon Dialogue Talk His core registry's gone haywire.
Icon Dialogue Talk He's got battery poisoning.
"Grandson of the Sea God": En... ahn-neh... (You—! Okay, you did offend me, but for Father's sake, I can let it slide... even though I don't actually know him...)
"Grandson of the Sea God": Ahn... en-nah... (Even you don't believe in the Sea God... Has our faith gone extinct...? It seems there's no place left for me in this vast Celestial Nexus...)
Velina: ...That's not true. You must have seen it yourself: a Bangboo standing before the fountain, tossing in a coin and genuinely believing their wish would come true.
Velina: The Sea God's faith still lingers, but times change. Now, they call Them the Fountain Sprite.
"Grandson of the Sea God": Enneh! (Fountain... Sprite...?! I think I've heard of it before!)
"Grandson of the Sea God": Ennah! (I see, I see! O Great Sea God — no, Grandpa, you've been by my side this whole time!)
The gentlemanly Bangboo lost its composure in an instant, leaping straight into the fountain, and then... its circuits shorted out on contact with the water.
Velina: Oh my... He's... certainly faithful.
Icon Dialogue Talk He clearly didn't give himself a waterproof coating...
Icon Dialogue Talk He's got a self-sacrificial spirit, that's for sure...
Velina: Instead of exalting his spirit, let's focus on saving him first.
You manage to fix up the "Grandson of the Sea God" in a scramble.
He seems lost in a bliss wider than the ocean itself, and drifts off without a care in the world.
Velina: I hope everything goes well for him.
Icon Dialogue Talk So sprites are actually real!‍[verification needed]

Velina: Heh, it seems like you're into such legends too. Unfortunately, there's no such thing as a Fountain Sprite.
Velina: Even for Bangboo, immediately deciding this fountain sculpture is some sort of sprite is... a bit of a stretch.
Velina: The wishing fountain's right in front of us, but I've never heard of urban legends of Sea Gods or sprites.
Icon Dialogue Talk So does that mean we're...
Icon Dialogue Talk Scamming liars?
Velina: You're a good citizen doing the right thing. There's only one villain here tricking Bangboo.
Velina: Besides... after this, the Fountain Sprite will most likely become a real in Roscaelifer, no different from the wishing fountain.
Velina: From what we've seen of him, he'll spread the word like wildfire.
Icon Dialogue Talk The Fountain Sprite's followers are about to grow!
Velina: Right, these kids are always obsessed with the supernatural. With the stories of a wishing fountain floating around, a sprite is a natural next step.
Icon Dialogue Talk That story's something you made up, right?
Trust Rank Friendly Trust increase with Velina Airgid
Velina: Yes, but it went better than expected...
Velina: That Bangboo was very into some rather unique beliefs. There's nothing wrong with that, but he's probably been ostracised due to it.
Velina: If we want to help him, shattering his emotional anchor would backfire. It wouldn't be a good idea.
Velina: Better to go with it. If I can use the legend of the wishing fountain to convince him the Sea God actually exists here, and get him to spread the word...
Velina: He could carve out a place for himself.
Icon Dialogue Talk If he didn't believe you...
Icon Dialogue Talk If we get exposed...
Velina: Well... at least I have you. They say it takes a crowd to sell a story, but two voices can still be convincing.
Velina: Maybe that's how the Sea God of Port Elpis came to be too.
(Idle in free roam)‍[verification needed]
Velina: Angels... Witches... Sprites...
Velina: Bangboo are always drawn to strange and mysterious...
