Dialogue
“Ah, you must be the help Passemerrant sent word about. Are you ready to begin your education? Firstly, observe the object next to me. No mere rock, it is an experimental apparatus designed to simulate the movement of aether through the environment. Through it I intend to demonstrate how crystals are formed. Now, the next order of the day is to use this explosive to destroy the device. Do not be afraid─your extremities are safe, I assure you.
— Dialogue when initially spoken to, before he gives the player a quest item
“Very good, very good. Did you enjoy yourself, little one?[1] Now you have your very own crystal. Aether flows all around us─an invisible energy that nourishes all things. Stocky Student: When a physical object so suffuse with aether is destroyed, it releases the energy contained within it into its surroundings. Some returns to the environment, but some remains in the physical realm. Thus are crystals formed. In simple terms, they are the physical manifestation of aether, frozen in time. Simple enough to understand, yes?
— Dialogue after the player uses the quest item as instructed
“Ah...is that so? Any Sharlayan youngling could recite those facts from memory. However, I may not always have the luxury of teaching such cultivated minds, as today has demonstrated. Yes... We must be more thorough with our explanations. So thorough that even the unlearned would have no trouble understanding them. Thank you for your frank opinion─sometimes an outside point of view can illuminate otherwise unseen faults. You have given us much to consider. As for the matter of compensation, my colleague is in charge of that. Please return to him to receive it.
— Dialogue after the player replies to his question.
- ↑ He refers to the player as a "little one" regardless of race or character height.
