Dialogue

Acceptance

Dossennus: 

What do you want? Hmm, hold on─ You seem a rather dexterous sort. Perhaps I can persuade you to take on a task for me?
I trust you are aware that ceruleum tanks can be salvaged from downed magitek weaponry, yes? Excellent. As it so happens, I have just finished scouting the perimeter of the station, looking for any machina that aren't yet completely destroyed.
I thought my work done, but word has reached me that some warmachina have recently come to a grinding halt nearby. As much as I would like to investigate this report, I worry the things may not be completely out of commission─that they may have life enough left to strike a killing blow.
If you're willing, search the area northwest of the station for dormant warmachina and pilfer their tanks of ceruleum for me. See if you can succeed where I've so egregiously failed.

Turn-in

Dossennus: 

Why, just look at you─ Not so much as a scratch. Now then, have you the tanks I requested?
I knew you'd come through! Without this ceruleum, we might well have frozen to death. There may not be much, but we're grateful for it, believe me.
Still, what we have here is but a small bandage atop a very large wound. While this amount of fuel is only a stopgap measure, its discovery means that more can likely be found farther afield.
<sigh> ...If I am to be honest, I often find myself wishing for a savior, one who will lead us into more promising times, as Emperor Solus once did. Someone who might pluck us from this sad lot.
But no man or woman as great as he will ever appear again─at least, not in our lifetimes. No, we've only to rely on ourselves now, to rebuild our fallen cities brick by brick, stone by stone.
It will prove a grueling task, one that will take us years. Just thinking about it makes my head spin...but you've shown me that if we all pull our weight, it's not so unrealistic a goal. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for giving me the courage to go on.
