Dialogue

What else can I do for you, friend?

I have some crabmeat. Do you want it? (Only if you have Crabmeat in your inventory) (Same as "Do you want this cave beast meat?")

Do you want this cave beast meat? Because I sure don't. (Only if you have Cave Creature Meat in your inventory)

Thank you. I'll take it off your hands, unless you'd rather feed the raptors yourself or drop it in their food basket for later.

Hold on a second...

No problem.

What can I do around here to help out?

I could always use help gathering more food: crabmeat, or meat from those filthy beasts in the tunnels. You could always train a bit on your mount, learning to engage enemies or catch fireflies.

One other thing...

Got it. Thanks.

Nothing just now, thanks.

After heart completion

Thank you for your help! I hope your raptor got a good workout. What can I do for you?

Do you have anything to sell?

Nothing just now, thanks.
