Dialogue
Accepting the Quest
Havak Alvak: I am Havak Alvak, a self-styled student of sundry subjects. Though I am best known, perhaps, for putting pen to parchment for a popular paper, the Mythril Eye. Havak Alvak: In these times of trials and tribulations, a subject of singular strangeness has ensnared my senses─magical monstrosities, more commonly known as “golems.” Havak Alvak: But I speak now of no common creation of magecraft. No, these shambling servants of stone have no equivalent in all of Eorzea. Havak Alvak: Should these curious constructions contain ores of extraordinary origin...well, I can only imagine the influence it might exert over Ul'dah's economy. Havak Alvak: Amajina & Sons Mineral Concern has come to a congruent conclusion, and its superiors seek a savvy adventurer to separate the facts from the fantastic. Havak Alvak: A representative of Amajina & Sons awaits outside Arrzaneth Ossuary. If exploring this enigma seems an entertaining endeavor, then I would wander over before this window of opportunity is wasted!
(Optional) Havak Alvak: The city is verily vibrating with vivacity. Ever was Ul'dah a scene for stimulating the senses.
Speak with the beefy businessman
Beefy Businessman: Hey! Don't sneak up on me like that! Are ye tryin' to make me soil me breeches!? Beefy Businessman: Hm? Yer here for the job, are ye? Well, I hope ye've experience dismantlin' golems. Beefy Businessman: We've been gatherin' reports o' some never-afore-seen constructs what've begun showin' up all over the damn realm. Beefy Businessman: Nary a soul knows what the creatures are made of, so Amajina & Sons means to be the first to take a pickaxe to this mystery mother lode! Beefy Businessman: I need ye to get out there, take apart one o' them shamblin' piles o' bricks, an' bring me back a good size chunk o' the remainin' rubble. What do ye say, eh? Will ye give it a shot?
< Give it a shot? > < Yes. > < No. >
(Yes answer) Beefy Businessman: Good lad/lass! I'll have a nice “refreshing” reward for ye when ye get back!
(Optional) Beefy Businessman: Sometimes I wish I could strut me stuff alongside the lasses. But then I remember I'm a serious businessman.
Deliver the chunk of brickman to the beefy businessman
Beefy Businessman: Have ye taken a sample of one o' them odd golems?
< Handover the Brickman Chunk >
Beefy Businessman: Ooh, now ain't that special! That luster... That shine... Beefy Businessman: Can ye smell it? 'Tis the scent o' profit, my friend! Beefy Businessman: That's some fine work ye did, adventurer. Very fine, indeed. Beefy Businessman: Now, just as I promised ye, I've prepared a payment yer sure to enjoy!
A bit o' pamperin' (Cutscene)
Beefy Businessman: Don't be shy now, lass. We all need a bit o' pamperin' from time to time!
Silky Associate: Ah, bonjour, my lovely. Silky Associate: Can we interest you in ze...'ow can I say? Puff-puff? Steamy Associate: Zis way! We show you a good time! Slinky Associate: It will not 'urt, I promise!
< How do you respond? > < <gulp>... > < Puff-puff away! > < ... >
Steamy Associate: Ah, oui, just relax! Silky Associate: You will 'ave twice ze fun with ze eyes closed!
Slinky Associate: Brace yourself! 'Ere it comes!
Associates: Puff, puff! Puff-puff! Puff-puff!
Associate: 'Ave you ever felt anything so warm and soft? Just relax and enjoy.
Associates: Puff, puff! Puff-puff! Puff-puff!
Slinky Associate: Feels good, doesn't it? We sometimes indulge in a bit of ze puff-puff ourselves!
Beefy Businessman: Me thanks again for yer cooperation, lass. Here's a little somethin' extra what ain't so...fleetin'.
Beefy Businessman: Au revoir! Er, I mean... <cough> 'Twas good meetin' ye. Look forward to doin' business with ye again sometime!
Havak Alvak: Ah, the adventurer! You were triumphant in your tussle against the towering titans, I trust? Havak Alvak: As it so happens, I have been hired by Amajina & Sons to craft an account of the aforementioned anomaly. I'd best begin before the focus on these fantastical foes falls out of fashion. Havak Alvak: My remuneration is promised to be most “refreshing” and perhaps a touch “risqué.” I fear I haven't an inkling as to what is implied, but I shall look forward to it, nonetheless!
