Dialogue and Mail

Upon bringing Bone Fragments to Jina

Jina

This looks like part of the whale's skull. The brain cavity is at least double the size of any known living whale.

Maybe Humans weren't the only ones to remerge?

Jina

Looks like a rib bone belonging to our giant whale friend.

Can't make out much from the bone itself, but the damage makes it look like the whale died from some sort of trauma.

Maybe a fight with another whale or maybe a harpoon? It's hard to say.

Jina

This looks like the dorsal fin of a Glow Whale, but it's a bit thinner.

Maybe it got clipped?

Or maybe I was just digging down the wrong hole. I'll see what my friend the biologist has to say.

Jina

Oh, mama! This has got to be a horn of a glow whale. I don't know of any other creatures with a horn like that!

I'm gonna send it to my friend to confirm, but I think we may have just made a huge discovery!

Player

That's great!

Jina

I don't want to get my hopes up too much, but it may already be too late for that!

Player

We haven't discovered anything yet...

Jina

You're right. I don't want to get my hopes up too much, but it may already be too late for that...

Post-Quest

Letter from Jina

Dear (Player),
So, I heard back from my colleague and the creature we found wasn't a glow whale. The ribs were too thin, the horn was too twisted, and the eye sockets were too far apart. But it was something maybe even MORE exciting. She said the bone fragments don't belong to ANY existing nautical species which means you may have discovered a brand new whale. If that can be confirmed, you should think of what you want to name it. Personally I think (Player)'s whale has a pretty nice ring to it.

Notes

• Throughout this quest you will be prompted to find several Bone Fragments, one at a time. Each time you fish one up, return to Jina to continue the quest. Bone Fragments can be fished up from the ocean in Bahari Bay WITHOUT bait. They will appear as chests on your hook. Shouldn't need to fish more than a couple times before the chest appears.
