Script
That the Khirians took us in speaks well for your work, [player name]. We needed the shelter.

This Rhodos fellow talks about things falling from the sky. Perhaps we can salvage Intrepid!

Maybe our mission won't fail.

Paesyn wants to talk to you if you have a moment.

(Understood.)

This is why I like you! You saved the day!

I've seen several pieces of Intrepid's wreckage. I'll check them over. Maybe impress Zolyn a bit. Get her to like me!

Since my poem didn't cheer her up, I drew a portrait of her. Could you deliver it? Please?

(Of course.)

I heard you saved Madat. Not bad. You're a fine soldier.

(Paesyn drew this for you.)

I take it back.

Stop wasting my time with this nonsense. What is with that silly engineer? Doesn't he have work to do?

(He wants you to like him.)

Have you seen where Paesyn went by any chance?

(He's investigating the wreckage.)

Well, we must press on.

(Understood.)

The way ahead will not be easy. You are new to Val Oriyn, so hear our grim tale.

(I'm listening.)

We, the Khirians, resist the archdevas, but most of my kind are enslaved. We refer to them as the Parthia.

They have a camp nearby, but I don't know if they'll let us pass without a fight.

(I'll talk to them.)

I hope diplomacy works for you.

Look for Pariya. The Parthia respect her, but be careful.

She's dangerous.

(I'm ready for anything.)

Hatishna? You believe such a popori tale?

No one stands against Lord Dakuryon. You too shall kneel before him!

(Think again.)

Oh, [player name]! You're here? Great!

Did Zolyn like the picture? I worked for days on it. What did she say?

(She didn't care for it.)

She probably doesn't appreciate my abstract realism. I studied art for two days in Velika, so I know all about it.

(Keep studying.)

Summary Upon Completion
Rhodos revealed some of the history of Northern Arun, while Paesyn tried a new tactic to make Zolyn like him.
