Journal
- The medicine merchant leers at you, his smile unnaturally wide.
- A medicine merchant of dubious repute offers you coin in exchange for your services as a courier. Before you know it, a phial of precious liquid is in your hands, and the merchant's grin has taken on a hungry, expectant quality. Best to make your delivery and get this over with.
- The Lalafellin gladiator receives you with unadulterated joy, babbling about the alleged transformational wonders of this medicine. He hands you a heavy sack of coin, making clear the reason for the merchant's wolfish grin─as well as the potential repercussions should the payment be found lacking.
- The medicine merchant receives his payment with satisfaction and is readying your reward when he notices a burly Hyuran gladiator waving in your direction. Presumably his potion worked wonders─yet he denies any knowledge of the gladiator or his concoction's efficacy, urging you to try it for yourself instead. The blue phial winks up at you from your palm as you consider the endless possibilities that await...
Dialogue
Accepting the quest
Hehehe... Why hello there, lad/lass. Care to make some easy gil?
You need only deliver a phial of my wares to a customer. I'll make it worth your while.
What will you say?
Why ask me?
You think some street urchin wouldn't scruple to abscond with my goods or pilfer from my profits? No, I need an adventurer for this work. Someone with...morals.
Is this one of those swindles I'm supposed to report?
Heavens no! This is a perfectly legitimate job, and I would never lie to you. It simply isn't in my nature.
Now that we understand each other, take this to the gladiator waiting on the Steps of Nald. Once you receive his dues, bring them straight back here─and rest assured I will know if you're even a gil short.
Deliver the phial of mysterious liquid to the diminutive gladiator on the Steps of Nald
Optional dialogue
Deliver that phial to the gladiator waiting on the Steps of Nald. You'll know him by his...diminutive stature.
This is taking forever... Maybe it really was too good to be true...
The player hands over the Mysterious Liquid.
Ah! Th-Thank you, sir/miss! I've been waiting for what felt like an age, but finally it's here! My miracle draught!
Oh, do you not know what this is?
This, my friend, is a phial of the mysterious brew called “Fantasia.” Legend states that any who drink it before lying down for the evening awakens a new man─or woman!
My Coliseum debut is coming up, and I'm terribly nervous. So I thought this medication might bestow me with the self-confidence I lack...
...and a chiseled, muscly body besides! Hahaha! I can't wait to show off in my subligar!
Take this to the medicine merchant with my compliments. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to make my dreams come true!
Deliver the leather sack of coin to the medicine merchant
Good, you're back. And with my payment, I expect?
The player hands over the Leather Sack of Coin.
Start of cutscene.Every last gil accounted for. I knew you'd be right for the job. Now for your payment...
But what's this?
A friend of yours? I can't say I recognized him.
My client? You mean that little Lalafellin gladiator?
What will you say?
Well, yes. Isn't that what your medicine does?
Your potion just turned a Lalafell into a Hyur!
Who's to say? I have no way of proving that man was indeed my client.
But if it would sate your curiosity, I believe I can spare you a phial for your own...experimentation.
Now, my business here is done. We will meet again someday─though whether we recognize one another is less certain. Hehehe...
End of cutscene.
