“Prishe is ready to keep moving.
— In-game description
Steps
- Speak with Jasper.
Journal
- Prishe is ready to keep moving.
- You find Scoria safe and sound. When asked about why she ran off, Scoria explains that her father intends for them to move to Tuliyollal, and the thought of leaving Alexandria upset her. She wants to be a singer, but worries the people of Tural will not like her music. Having seen firsthand the myriad peoples of Tural, Prishe tries to help her see the bigger picture, telling her that being different is what will make her music special. Scoria is heartened by her words, even feeling so bold as to share her music with the three of you. Now that she is safe, her heart put at ease, all that remains is to return to Sheshenewezi Springs and reunite her with her father.
- Jasper is at a loss as to how he might repay you for your timely assistance. Scoria, meanwhile, expresses a newfound determination to share her music with the world. You send the happy pair off with a smile, though you cannot help but notice the hint of melancholy in Prishe's eyes.
Dialogue
Accepting the quest
Prishe: Whoever that was I saw scurrying off can't be far. Let's go─before any monsters find them!
Cutscene
Alxaal: You found her! Thank goodness.
Scoria: Who...who are you people?
Prishe: The name's Prishe. Your father asked us to come and find you. What are you doing out here all by yourself?
Scoria: He said we have to move, but I don't want to go. I want to stay in Alexandria, and be a singer... Scoria: I know nothing about the music in Tuliyollal, and they'd never listen to a nobody like me who's not even from Tural. Scoria: Thinking about it made me so mad, I just... I needed to be alone to think. So I ran, and I kept running. Then somehow I found myself here. Scoria: I'm sorry if I caused you all any trouble...
Prishe: No need to be sorry! You're safe, and that's all that matters. Prishe: You know, you remind me of a friend of mine. Prishe: Ulmia. One day, I found her out near the coast with a beautiful view just like this, crying like it was the end of the world. Prishe: She had been trying to join the choir, but turns out she was too nervous to sing in front of people. Prishe: But this world is one damn big place. If you spend all your time dwelling on small setbacks, you'll never be able to appreciate the bigger picture. Prishe: It'd be a lie to say I know what you're going through, but what I do know is this: giving up on singing would mean the end of the world you've been working toward. Prishe: I told Ulmia the same thing, and you know what? She kept pursuing her passion for singing, and eventually joined the Tavnazian Cathedral Choir, just like she'd always dreamed.
Scoria: But...what if they hate my songs? What if they all just laugh at me?
Prishe: All sorts of people live here in Tural, you know. And now there are even folks from another world mingling with the locals─it's full to bursting with diversity. Prishe: Being different is what'll make your songs special, and I'm sure there are people here who appreciate that. So I say keep singing─share your music with this big, wide world!
Scoria: Would it be all right if I start by sharing with you?
Optional Dialogue
Bakool Ja Ja the Mystic: As resourceful as ever, I see. Well done.
Alxaal: Safe and sound without a scratch. I can only imagine the weight lifted off her father's heart.
Prishe: Scoria was pretty amazing, wasn't she? I listened to Ulmia practice singing heaps, so believe me when I say Scoria will be just fine.
Scoria: I'm sorry for making you worry...
Speak with Jasper (cutscene)
Jasper: Ah, there you are! It's so good to see you all safe. Jasper: Scoria has told me everything. I don't know how I could ever repay you. Jasper: But after we've finished moving to Tuliyollal, I certainly intend to try. You have my word on that.
Scoria: I hope to see you again soon. And I'd love to meet your friend Ulmia, as well.
Prishe: You and me both.
Alxaal: When we do, we'll be certain to tell Ulmia that Prishe has another dear friend who is dying to meet her.
Scoria: I can hardly wait! Scoria: And I promise to keep singing, sharing my music with the world just like you said. Scoria: So you better come back! I'll have a front row seat waiting for you!
Prishe: R-Right... Of course.
Jasper: We had better be on our way. Thank you again, for everything.
Prishe: Till we meet again. I hope...

Alxaal: <sigh> Oh, Prishe...
