Dialogue
Taciturn Miner: Excuse me, sinner. I am planning a journey into dangerous territory and need a bodyguard. Can you help me? Taciturn Miner: My destination is the bridge that stretches across the northern chasm. I should be able to reach it but I will need you to watch my back once I arrive. There is something I must do...
Taciturn Miner: This where a close friend of mine lost his life. He was a miner, one of the best. Until the day he was attacked by a sin eater. Taciturn Miner: After Daedalus Stoneworks closed and the Talos fell into disrepair, he tried to find alternative methods for operating the trolleys, such as having them pulled by lizards. It was during one of these trials that he met his end. Taciturn Miner: Though you are an outsider and never met him, it would mean a lot to me if you could join me in paying respects. Here, cast this flower into the ravine. Taciturn Miner: Do you have customs like this where you come from?
System: You pay your respects by offering a flower for the lost miner.
Taciturn Miner: I wonder if he is watching us now, alongside all of the other great Ronso of the past. Many of the villages and mountains in Amh Araeng bear their names. Taciturn Miner: My friend and I once dreamed of opening mines and naming them after ourselves. I still hold on to that hope, even though he is no longer with us. Taciturn Miner: I can tell you too have lost loved ones. What do you do to overcome the grief?
< What will you say? > < I try to concentrate on the here and now. > < When the tears come, I let them flow. > < We each find our own way. You must find yours. >
< I try to concentrate on the here and now. > Taciturn Miner: Yes, there are others that still need us. Deeds that must be done. or < When the tears come, I let them flow. > Taciturn Miner: Yes, only by accepting the pain in our hearts can we hope to move on. or < We each find our own way. You must find yours. > Taciturn Miner: Yes, you are right. True strength must come from within.
Taciturn Miner: I am grateful for your kind words. Taciturn Miner: I shall reflect on them as we journey back to Twine.
Taciturn Miner: I was glad to have someone to hear my friend's tale. For in the telling, I was able to look back on happier times. From this day forth, I will strive to uphold the ideals that we once shared and in so doing, honor his memory. Taciturn Miner: Please accept this as a small token of my thanks.
