Dialogue[edit]

Skyward Marches[edit]

Well, if we're stuck here, we might as well talk. What's on your mind?
Talk more option tango.png What did they want to learn from this fractal?
Not my area of expertise, but maybe they just wanted to see what would happen if a rogue god wasn't stopped. There's five more of them out there, after all.
Talk end option tango.png Good point.
Talk more option tango.png What happened to me in this fractal?
Well, you didn't win, but from what I can tell you survived. Left Elona to go seek an answer to Balthazar and just...disappeared for good.
Talk end option tango.png I see.
Talk more option tango.png So this isn't the kind of job you normally have?
Not even close. I'm a soldier—my place is at the front, taking the fight to the enemy. Don't get me wrong; it's important that somebody do this job. Just wish it wasn't me.
Talk end option tango.png Understandable.
Talk more option tango.png You seem to be a fan of Mabon.
Of course! He's exactly what you want in a leader: straightforward and direct, capable in command and in the field. If we had another ten of him, we'd have won already.
Talk end option tango.png Maybe so.
Talk end option tango.png Nothing currently.

Shimmering Basin[edit]

(Foothold Bivouac Renown Mastery not started)
Right on time, Wayfinder. The camp's started coming together, but as usual, we're going to have to do a lot of work to finish it.
Talk more option tango.png No rest for the wicked. What do you need?
Well, the skimmers need feeding, and you can also use that weird magic of theirs to heal our injured. Then, if you've got extra time, maybe help the researchers by sketching some local wildlife?
Talk end option tango.png I'll get right to it, Major.
Tick green.png Any idea which direction I should head?

All right, Wayfinder, here's the breakdown of what's going on.

  • Many are coming back injured. Your skimmer apparently can heal them, but don't ask me how.
  • The researchers are gathering sketches and notes about the local wildlife. Each one you can get for them is one less they'll fight over.
  • The skimmers need to be fed after all this travel. There's plenty of food around, but someone has to actually gather it.
  • And there's also plenty of Inquest and hostile wildlife to contend with.

— Majpr Emund

Talk more option tango.png Can you let me know how I'm doing? (Show Renown Mastery Achievement)
Talk end option tango.png Duty calls elsewhere for now, unfortunately.
(Foothold Bivouac Renown Mastery tier 1 or above)
You're a welcome sight, as always, Wayfinder.
Talk more option tango.png Likewise, Major. Anything else you need? (same as "No rest for the wicked. What do you need?")
Tick green.png Can you give me a rundown on the area? (same as "Any idea which direction I should head?")
Talk more option tango.png Can you let me know how I'm doing? (Show Renown Mastery Achievement)
Talk merchant tango.png Got any supplies I can buy from you?
Talk end option tango.png Duty calls me elsewhere for now, unfortunately.
(if renown heart is completed today)
Proved yourself a real help today, you did. You've earned a rest, or some leisure time, perhaps.
Talk merchant tango.png Can I buy supplies?
Talk more option tango.png Can you let me know how I'm doing? (Show Renown Mastery Achievement)
Talk end option tango.png Thanks, I'll try.

Quotes[edit]

Shimmering Basin[edit]

Upon approaching
(Foothold Bivouac Renown Mastery not started)
Wayfinder! Always a relief to have you around.
Colonel Rheff is running this operation and managing all the factions here.
I'm mostly trying to make his life easier, but diplomacy isn't my strong suit.
You're pretty good at it though, so if you've got time to keep everyone happy, I'd appreciate it.
(Foothold Bivouac Renown Mastery tier 1)
Another day in paradise, eh, Wayfinder?
(Foothold Bivouac Renown Mastery tier 2 or 3)
Good to see you again, Wayfinder. Plenty more to do around here.
(Foothold Bivouac Renown Mastery tier 4 or 5)
Things are coming along, but we're not done just yet.
After heart completion
(Foothold Bivouac Renown Mastery tier 1)
A day of camp work is more exhausting than a day of fighting.
But the colonel says I need more experience managing groups that don't like each other.
"Most of being a senior officer is just managing personalities."
He's probably right.
(Foothold Bivouac Renown Mastery tier 2 or 3)
Thanks again for the help, Wayfinder.
Everybody is here with their own motives, you know. The Priory to study, the legions for intel, the Sly Crew for profit.
But they all respect you, so they work together. Not hard to see why that's a valuable trait to have.
Maybe I'll get there eventually.
(Foothold Bivouac Renown Mastery tier 4 or 5)
Well, you've done it again, Wayfinder. Like always.
We've fought together a lot, you know, and you're something to behold out there.
But maybe it's what you do here that's made you a legend. I don't know, it's just a thought.
