Dialogue

Rhilril

You must be a traveler, yes? Then maybe you can help me.
I was looking around an abandoned house and I found a map of Amh Araeng, with a big cross drawn on it. It can only mean one thing─treasure!
I want to go and look for it, but I have to stay here and guard the village. Could you go in my stead?
If there are any shinies to be had, we can share them, yes? Here, take my spade and dig where the cross is!
Be sure to bring the treasure to me, along with my spade! You do not want to know what happens to thieves around here...

System

You discover a rotted chest buried in the soil.

Rhilril

Show me what you found! Show me! And give me my spade back, please!
Oh, this must be very old... Let us see what is inside...
What!? Nothing but junk! Rusty junk, at that! Why would anyone bury this? Wait, is that a diary? I am sure the former owner will not mind if I take a peek...
Hmm... It looks like the owner had to leave Amh Araeng but was planning to come back one day.
And if that day ever came, they wanted to dig up the diary and continue writing their life story.
I wonder if that person is still alive... Probably not, judging by the state of this chest. It must have been buried for a long time. Maybe their children, or their children's children will come in search of it.
If I read the rest, maybe I can learn who this person was... And then I will put it back, in a more sturdy box. And since there was no treasure to share, I will give you this instead as payment for your hard work!
