Dialogue and Mail

Introduction

Letter from Einar

Dear (Player),
I do not wish to generate anxiety within you, but I have been presented with information that may do so.

Please translate your corporeal form to my location, during the earliest point of daylight that is within your convenience.

Einar

Missing dialogue options for Earth path.

Upon speaking to Einar

Einar

Salutations, companion! I require assistance of a Humanoid nature. I was aspiring for yours in particular.

Before you deliberate, allow me to share facts that you may or may not have become aware of. All Galdur are linked through a network of Flow. As the sky-orb rose today, I received a message through said connection.

Player

What did the message say?

Einar

It was distorted and fragmentary, like my current comprehension of the circumstances. I have only decoded the word "Help."

Player

Oh, you've been talking to Hekla?

Einar

The communication was not from Hekla. It was distorted, and from an entity that is yet to make itself known. I have only decoded the word "Help."

I surmised another Galdur has awoken, but I cannot access their emplacement. Since you are an expert at accessing spaces you should not, I thought you might be interested in the challenge.

Player

Of course I am!

Einar

If I had the face flaps to simulate a Humanoid smile, your words would cause me to do so.

Player

You can't walk there yourself?

Einar

(TBA)

Player

I didn't break into nothin'!

Einar

Zeki told me about your exploits at the celebration to mark the passage of Eshe and her partner's years of shared misery. It was, as he described, "legendary".

Player

What kind of space?

Einar

It is a difficult place to describe. If you could consider a Galdur being born, I would say it was a spot in which that happened to me. I have not returned since.

This "Temple of Roots" is secured in a peculiar way. Hekla acquired an additional Flow power container from her Jina, yet when we inserted it into the intended slot, our passage remained obstructed.

We require a Human to override the lockdown protocol.

Player

Why do you need a Human to override it?

Einar

This location is... full of stories for many Galdur. The human perception was that we might want to acquire access to relive those memories. That would interfere with operations, and thus, they took precautions.

Perhaps those precautions are how this Galdur found itself encapsulated in a space it did not wish to be...

There are three Human overseer stations in Bahari - one correlating to each of the other elemental Flow structures you have researched. You will need to locate and access them all.

To find their locations, you may have to inquire around the village. Perhaps begin with Hekla.

Progression

Upon speaking with Villagers who were present in the Temple of the Flames

Player

Do you know where any Human overseer stations are?

Hassian

I heard my mother telling a story about one in the Inn the other day. Hopefully she will be able to assist you.

Sifuu

Human over... what? Haven't seen anything like that.

The only Human place I've been to recently is that spicy little temple we found Tau in. You think there's more to it?

That facility did seem connected to the aqueduct... ya' never know what might be in those sewer grates around there.

Maybe you'll even find one of those monster clowns Auni was tellin' me about...

Tau

(Tau stares at you blankly.)

[RECENT MESSAGES]

[FROM, GALEN]

[Body Text 1/2: I've wondered if our previous connection makes things like this easier or harder for you - it definitely makes them harder for me. I guess I finally got my answer when you decided to cut our Flow supply without talking to me first. Even if the order came from the King himself, I thought I could still trust you enough to come to me.]

[Body Text 2/2: Lucky for us, we have enough Pyroflow stocked up to keep things chugging along, at least for now. I'm mostly sending this to ask if the two of us can act normally around each other. Is it already too late for that?]

[FROM, ANEMA]

Body Text: Listen, dear - I know you have been struggling GREATLY with the decision to cut off Flow supplies, but keep in mind it was not your choice. Titus and Galen will blame you, but that is because they cannot blame anyone else. Deep down, they are well aware who is responsible. Stay strong, my love.]

[FROM, TITUS]

[Body Text: The Gardener is already preeeetty upset about you cutting off his Pyroflow supplies. I'm not sure what the King expects to happen - does the Capital want Galdur or not? Galen may be approaching this issue in the wrong way, but at least he is approaching it. Stand up for us, Heph!]

[FROM, ADMIN 2]

[Body Text: I know you are making sacrifices. We are all making sacrifices. The people we've lost are irreplaceable, but so are you - in this time, more than any before it, I need your faith. If we fail here, the Cosmos protocol will be the hope for the future. Your facility will not only house a key to this secret, but provide a potential source of power to any future survivors.]
