Dialogue
Optional dialogue
We've been doing so well! Even Tobli would have to agree...
Accepting the quest
Before we get moving... You should be the one to hold this.
With that, I suppose we should hop on the alpacas Mablu has so kindly provided...
Optional dialogue
If I'm going to catch a wild alpaca after this, I can't be shying away from the tame ones. Not that I'm scared of them, you understand. Or their nasty, disgusting, foul-smelling spit...
Speak with Mablu.
Ready to go? Let's mount up!
Begin the alpaca ride?
And it's off to the mate fields we go!
Please don't spit, please don't spit...
You'll be fine! These ones are accustomed to people!
I still don't trust them...
You have a knack for riding, no matter what you say!
Without our alpaca friends, we Pelu would never have become traveling merchants. Can you imagine walking all the way across Tural?
I swear, that mountain is too tall to be real.
Worqor Zormor... Wasn't that the name?
A forbidding sight, isn't it? One I've never appreciated up close.
You have to take the long way around the cliffs to get there─to the highlands belonging to the Yok Huy.
So, Mablu, you said you were learning about the peddler profession. You don't care for ranch work?
No, no, I love it! I love working with alpacas!
But becoming a peddler has always been a dream of mine.
It's just... I'm not sure I have the talent for it.
If I can help you buy the taming saddle, though, then it'd be proof that I can do this after all.
In that case, you'd best get ready to be a merchant!
Look, we're almost there!
Start of cutscene.We made it...and without a single smelly incident.
I sent the alpacas back to Icuvlo's Inn, so we'll walk along the main road when we return to the village.
Speaking of roads to travel... You were adopted by the Dawnservant, weren't you, Third Promise?
That I was.
Then perhaps you understand. I was an orphan too, you see─Tobli took me in. He took in all the ranch hands, actually.
All of them?
Yes, and everyone works hard at their chores, grateful for the opportunity to repay the head ledger's generosity. Yet here I am, the only one wanting to go off and be a merchant...
I'm sorry, I don't know why I'm telling you this! We need to keep trading things for your saddle if you're to prepare for the Feat of Gold.
As it's mate harvesting season, they can't have too many quality hatchets. Add to that Wuk Lamat's way with people, and we should have no trouble making a favorable deal.
That's Miplu herself over there! Pass the hatchet to the Third Promise, and let's get to bargaining!
End of cutscene.
Optional dialogue
Give the fine hatchet to Wuk Lamat. (Cutscene)
You have that little axe for me?
Thanks! Now to see what we can get for it...
Start of cutscene.You're Miplu, the owner of these fields? I have a mind to trade, if you're interested.
Well, well, the Third Promise! I might be convinced to entertain a proposal. What do you have on offer?
This hatchet! Forged by a seasoned artisan, the razor edge of this exceptional tool will make light work of your crops!
Hrm... The quality is acceptable, I suppose. I offer you a large sack of mate leaves in exchange.
A sack of mate leaves is valued at one pel in the thousands column─the same price as the hatchet. This deal would bring us no closer to the mezcal...
If I may, Mistress Miplu. It's harvesting season, is it not? Does not the demand for hatchets afford them a higher value?
It is indeed the season. Which is why I procured an ample batch of tools well in advance.
We've missed the window for demand... In that case, we'll have to fall back on connections.
Think of it this way! A generous deal here will put you in the Third Promise's good graces. Surely that's worthy of consideration?
I do not wish to give offense, but I must tell you that I stand with the Second Promise. His innovations will improve every aspect of our lives, I believe─including farming. And I will no longer have need of hatchets.
I assure you that I have nothing but respect for Wuk Lamat. That is why I'm prepared to purchase a spare hatchet at a fair price.
I-I suppose it is fair given your reasons. But we ourselves would be no better off for the transaction...
How about this, then. If we were to help bring in your harvest, would you give us a better deal?
As a matter of fact, I would! Until Koana's reforms come about, I can always use more hands in the fields.
Then you can go ahead and add our labor to the bargain!
Added value to tip the scales... How could I have forgotten one of the most basic rules of trading?
You can rest here if you like, Mablu. Forename and I have mate to gather!
Oh no, I'm helping too!
Off to the fields, then, and mind you pick the healthy leaves. I'll take five good bundles from each of you.
End of cutscene.
Optional dialogue
Harvest and deliver verdant mate leaves to Miplu. (Cutscene)
You've brought me some leaves, then?
An acceptable harvest. We'll see how your companions fared before I make any decisions, though.
Start of cutscene.Here, we've brought our share as well.
Thank you, Third Promise. This is more than enough to hold up your end of the bargain.
Now it's time to honor mine. After adding the value of your labor to the price of the hatchet...
I am prepared to offer you a full sack of our highest-grade mate leaves!
Premium mate! Bought at the shop, one sack of those leaves would cost no less than five pel in the thousands column!
Then we can bid farewell to this hatchet.
I'll give it a good home. Talk of the contest aside, I'm glad we could come to a mutually agreeable trade.
As am I! All the best with the rest of your harvest!
Mablu? What's wrong?
It's as I was saying before... Even after everything Tobli's done for me, I'm planning to abandon it all and become a merchant.
But then I needed your help after forgetting a basic rule of trade. How can I expect Tobli to accept my decision then...?
What will you say?
Have you mentioned your plans to leave?
Not exactly. I wanted to prove I could succeed as a peddler before I declared my intentions...
So you intend to give up, then?
I seek to follow in my father's footsteps, but not because he expects it of me. I want to preserve Tural's peace, and becoming Dawnservant happens to be the best way to do it.
You should live a life of your own choosing, and I wouldn't be surprised if Tobli held the same opinion. So talk to him.
...You're right! It's better to find out for sure than worry over what he might say! Thank you for the advice.
But first, we have a saddle to buy. I want that success under my belt so I can be sure of my decision!
What's next, then? We try to trade our tea leaves for something halfway to ten thousand pel?
No, I think we're close enough now. I say we go straight for the premium mezcal!
Bargain our way into double the value, eh? Think you can do it?
Trust me! I will make this trade work!
I admire you, Third Promise. That you're holding your own against such strong competition for the throne is inspiring!
Uh... Am I really holding my own against Koana and Zoraal Ja...?
I-I mean, of course I am! I'm Wuk Lamat of the Dawn's Promise, after all!
Excellent Trade!
Success! You traded a thousand pel hatchet for a five thousand pel sack of top-grade mate leaves!
End of cutscene.
