Dialogue and Mail

Upon speaking to Elouisa.

Player

Do you know what this is?

Elouisa

What do we have here? Why... this seems to be a premium fish freshener upper.

Ah! Yes! Someone has placed this little doohickey in the water to make the fish more succulent.

This is VERY concerning.

Player

Seems nefarious. Who would do such a thing?

Elouisa

Player

Why is that concerning?

Elouisa

Because...if our fish become more succulent, it will attract more tourism to the village. And who wants to deal with tourists. Such a hassle!

Player

...I don't think that's what this is.

Elouisa

That’s because, my dear, you are delightfully naive, and expect things to make sense.

An experienced paranormal expert knows the answer is always the one that makes the LEAST sense.

Hmmm... who knows about magic and likes to eat fish?

I can not think of anyone.

Perhaps Zeki would know more? I recommend asking him about this mysterious magic using fish eater.

Upon speaking to Jina

Player

Elouisa thought this looked Grimalkin. What do you think?

Jina

Grimalkin? This device doesn't look Grimalkin to me. The runes on the side are definitely Human.

Unfortunately, I can't identify them any further. Maybe Caleri at the library could help you?

Upon speaking to Zeki

Player

Do you know what this artifact is?

Zeki

Nope, never seen it. Why? Is it worth somethin'?

Player

Elouisa said you'd know.

Zeki

Elouisa...if you're listenin' to her, you're even more naive then I thought, kid.

That lady's got some...fun ideas, but they don't pass the old sniff test, ya know.

If ya found that thing fishin', maybe try takin' it to Einar?

Player

Darn, I was hoping it would make fish tastier.

Zeki

Make fish tastier... why would I know anything about that?

If you're looking for fihsing(sic) advice, maybe try asking Einar.

Upon speaking to Caleri

Player

Got any books on translating runes?

Caleri

You're still new in town, so I'm going to pretend I didn't hear that.

Asking for those kinds of books could get you in trouble with the Order.

Honestly, I have to worry enough about my sister poking around this nonsense.

I don't need to worry about protecting you as well!

Conclusion

Upon speaking to Einar

Player

Know anything about Human runes?

Einar

Yes, I myself am made up of runes as are all Human-made things. Did you wish me to translate something for you?

Ah, the symbols on this aquatic vessel are for attracting fish.

Yes, this is a Human-made fishing lure! You should try it... and let me know what sort of bountiful fish you are able to attract.

Player

Sweet! Can I use it?

Einar

No, sadly, it requires more ambient Flow to operate than is currently available without artificle(sic) Flow enhancers.

Though I must admit, it would bring me much joy to watch you fishing with a lure such as this.

Player

I can't believe I did all this for a stupid lure.

Einar

I find it dissatisfying to hear you speak of the lure in this manner.

My creator was a great inventor of many things, as well as an avid fishing enthusiast.

In fact, I sense a likeness in this lure. Yes, I do think it was also created by my creator.

In a sense, you have brought me a sort of sibling. Would you mind exchanging this lure for an operational lure? I'd like to hold on to this one for sentimental value.

Player

Of course not!

Einar

Many thanks! This gift shall bring me great comfort.

Player

If you promise to be nice to your little brother.

Einar

This lure's existence actually predates my own. So if anything I am the "little brother."

But I will promise to cherish it regardless.
