Dialogue

Accepting the Quest

Amshs Aath: Well, if it is not a finless one! Ssspare a moment for a frail aath, honored guest, if you would.
Amshs Aath: We Ondo are the caretakers of these and other ancient ruins. Ours is a dangerousss lot, for there are many creatures of the sea that would drive us from this place and take up residence in our ssstead. Thus must we clad ourselves in armor to shhhield our bodies from their blows.
Amshs Aath: The scales of the amphisbaena are one such material we use to fashion our equipment. Ssslay one and bring to me its ssscales that I might help our young koal live to see the morrow.
Amshs Aath: They are opportunistic predators, preferring to remain concealed until they sense the presssence of potential prey. Use this crab meat to lure one out of hiding, and then befuddle its senses with this shimmering orb.
(Optional)
Amshs Aath: Much as I would love to accompany you in this hunt, I fear one of my age is just as like to become an amphisssbaena's next meal. I must ask that you do this without my help, finless one. I but hope that the orb will be enough to guarantee your victory.

Delivering the amphisbaena scales to Amshs Aath

Amshs Aath: Ah, the finless hunter. Have you brought the ssscales I seek?
< Hand over Amphisbaena Scales >
Amshs Aath: Very good, very good. These are just the sort we will need to make strong, ssstout armor for the younglings.
Amshs Aath: Once we would have shhhirked such measures, cumbersome and weighty as they are. But we must adapt to life outside of water, which means utilizing the methods you finless ones favor...
(Optional)
Amshs Aath: Such a rare and wonderful pleasure it is to receive a finless one. I do so hope you enjoy your time in the Cupsss.
