Dialogue

Accepting the Quest

Perplexed Confederate: You there. Have you got a minute?
Perplexed Confederate: I think I saw a girl collapsed on the beach, but I need to be sure. When you are up here for hours at a time, your eyes begin playing tricks on you. Here─take this telescope. Point it in that direction and tell me if you see her, too.

(Optional)
Perplexed Confederate: Take a look at the coast over there with the telescope. Do you see an unconscious girl?

Observing the target from the vantage point

System: With your telescope you spy a sapphire-haired girl. She appears to be unconscious.

Reporting what you saw to the perplexed Confederate

Perplexed Confederate: So it is not just me, then?
Perplexed Confederate: Do you think you could do me another favor and check up on her?
Perplexed Confederate: I am afraid I cannot go there myself in case she is...well, you know...d-dead. Bah! Even just thinking about it gives me the shivers!
(Optional)
Perplexed Confederate: Please, can you go and see if she is all right? I shall remain here, lest you end up having to take care of two unconscious people on the beach.

Aiding the sapphire–haired girl (Cutscene)

Sapphire–haired Girl: Th-Thank you, madam/sir. You saved my life. I was gathering food from the sea when suddenly I was attacked by shore jellyfish. Their stings left me paralyzed, and I was washed ashore by the currents.
Sapphire–haired Girl: Where I am from we are taught growing up to avoid contact with strangers. We would never go out of our way to rescue them. If it were not for your remarkable compassion, I would have no doubt died upon these shores, far away from home.
Sapphire–haired Girl: As much as I would like to offer you a reward for what you have done for me, I sadly have nothing of value on me. If our paths should ever cross again, however, I shall be sure to give you something.

Reporting to the perplexed Confederate

Perplexed Confederate: I was watching the two of you from afar with my telescope. Kami be praised! It seems the girl was still alive. Did she tell you what happened to her?
Perplexed Confederate: Indeed? The waters carry a myriad of strange things our way, including people. Though, most of them are already d-dead by the time they reach us. That is why I am up here and not down there doing patrols.
Perplexed Confederate: Had you not come when you did, I may have been forced to go down and deal with her myself. By the time I worked up the courage to do so, she might have been long gone. Please take this pouch of koban. You have saved not one, but two people today.
