The Merchant's Tale depicts a Corvos from before the Garlean occupation, made even more wondrous by the flourishes of countless storytellers throughout the ages. As you relate the details of your time within its pages to Osmon, he continues the timeless storytelling tradition by adding his own embellishments to an already fantastic fable, and you feel yourself drawn back in to the beautiful but increasingly dangerous world of folklore...

Dialogue

Boss 1

Come, join us. Lend your voice to our chorus!
Let our song ring ever louder!
You can but walk the path fate sets before you.
Dance with me. Let the beat of our hearts guide our steps.
Be buried under the weight of countless unanswered wishes...
Now we offer ourselves to the sea. Hope overflowing coalesces into a wish come true...
Let us shout our prayers to the heavens, and they may be answered.
Do my words not reach you? I ask only that you stay by my side...
Our revel shall not end until our prayers are answered.
Let us treasure this bond, ere it vanishes like so much foam upon the tide...
Now, shall we depart? Into the black, inky depths!

Boss 2

Take up your weapon. I pray you can provide some measure of entertainment before you die.
Whence shall my blade strike? Look well!
From where shall death take you? I shall grant you the mercy of foresight.
Bear witness to the Unyielding Blade!
Not so fast!
Come now, you can do better than that!
Know this: none can escape their fate.
Hah hah, good, good! Perhaps you shall not disappoint after all!
Death comes from all directions!
...Tch, you have much to learn. Sadly, the dead do not learn. They sleep.

Boss 3

<sigh> What a chore. Must you soil the floor of my paradise?
The pari conjures an illusion...
I've had quite enough of you! I shall like you better set aflame!
Your prancing and capering sickens me! Begone from my sight!
You're still standing? Ugh... I was hoping this would be over by now.
A nap sounds heavenly...
This ordeal is still going?
Stop struggling! You wear my patience dangerously thin!
You'll soon be a pile of ash!
