Dialogue and Mail

Introduction

Letter from Jina

Dear (Player),
I've been doing a lot of digging on the Flow battery you found.

Humans used to use these to power all sorts of things...

You know, there's this old door under the waterfall that I've been trying to open. It's just a little ways past the shrine we first met at. I've tried all sorts of things to get it open. Maybe this battery could be the key...

Why don't you give it a try? This place used to belong to your people after all. You really should be the first one to check it out.

Progression

Upon speaking to Jina about the mysterious chamber

Jina
You actually did it! I heard the rumbling and came running.
This place is amazing! It must've been some kind of temple...
Can you actually read the carvings on the walls? This is ancient Human writing!
Actually, no. That makes perfect sense. You're a Human. Of course you can read your own language!
You scout ahead, Hekla and I will survey this room to see what we can learn.


Upon speaking to Hekla

Player
You ok? You seem quiet.
Hekla
We should not be here...
Especially not Jina.
Player
What? Why?
Hekla
This... this is a sad place.
I am prohibited from saying more at this time.
I am sorry. Please do not ask me any more questions.

Conclusion

Upon returning to Jina

Player
I found something up ahead...
Jina
What is it?

Player
A huge cliff...
Jina
A cliff? Intriguing... perhaps there was some sort of collapse...

Player
Some big ruins.
Jina
A ruin? Intriguing... perhaps this was a temple...

I wouldn't try navigating that area without a glider.
You'll need to speak with Najuma about building you one.
She usually hangs around Bahari Bay.
