Dialogue[edit]
- Message in the bottle along the shores of Castora
To my love,
I know you won't—can't—read this, but at the suggestion of a new friend, I am writing my feelings on paper and casting them out to sea. The chance this reaches you is slight, I know, but the small comfort that it might find your remains soothes my aching heart.
It has been 259 days since our fateful voyage. Since the storm. A whole agonizingly slow 259 days since you were taken by the ocean. Now all I can do is wish to go back in time, to be able to pull you from the tumultuous sea.
Your voice rings in my head, telling me it's not my fault. Still, I can't help but feel it is. There had to be something different I could've done. And while I miss home, I don't long for it as I do you. Even given the chance to go home, I'd stay here just to be close to you. Going back would just start the heartbreak all over again.
Forever grieving you, Lyla
- Approaching Castaway Lyla before completing objective 2
- Castaway Lyla: (sniffles)
- Castaway Lyla
- (before completing objective 2)
- Hmm? Oh. Hi.
Lyla? I think I found a letter that belongs to you.
- Oh. Oh! I didn't think I'd see that again. (sighs) This is kind of an odd request, so I'll understand if you say no...but would you be able to take that where I intended it to go?
- Sure. Where should I look?
- Well...that's the catch. I'm not sure, exactly. Somewhere off the coast. Look for someone— Um...look for remains, I mean. With a sword by them. Hopefully the sword stayed with her.
- I'll go do that.
Never mind.
- I can't right now.
- Good-bye.
- (before completing objective 3)
- Any updates? Did you find anything? Anything!
- Sorry... What should I do again?
Uh... Where should I look?
- I'm not sure exactly. Somewhere off the coast. Look for remains with a sword by them.
Thanks.
- Good-bye.
- (before completing objective 4)
- You did it? Tell me you did. Did you?
- Yes. But...seems like you have a new friend here. Who are you?
- Castaway Lyla: Oh! Right! How rude of me! This is Amy May. She's, uh...a wise woman, I guess. A mentor of sorts? To anyone struggling.
- Castaway Lyla: I... I've really struggled lately. With grief. It's...hard. And, well, she suggested the letter. To help me move forward.
- Castaway Amy May: Ya took a big step. I know it's been tough. But ya hit this square on the head. Ought to be proud of yourself, girl.
- Castaway Amy May: Now, this is the newcomer you were tellin' me about? Amy May. Not sure how "wise" I am. Just want to help people, is all.
- Castaway Amy May: Not unlike you, I gather. Seems you've helped a lot of people 'round here, Lyla included.
- Castaway Amy May: Plenty more could use your help, if you're willin'—grief's one thing that ain't in short supply in Hullgarden.
- Castaway Amy May: Most of these folks aren't up to the tasks that need doin'. Hurt. Afraid. You, though...I reckon you can help 'em, yeah?
- Castaway Amy May: If ya want some more info, holler. Or go chat up the people who could use your help—you'll see 'em around.
- Sorry, I have to go.
- (after completing objective 4, before completing objective 6)
- Hmm?
- Sorry. I'll leave you be.
- Approaching Castaway Amy May after completing objective 4
- Castaway Amy May: Don't sit around just stewin'. Let it out! We'll help ya carry your burden. Maybe even lighten it a bit.
- Castaway Amy May
- (Before completing the objectives 5a–5g)
- Hey there, friend. Doing okay? You need somethin'?
- What did you need me to do again?
- Tell me a bit about yourself, Amy May.
- Washed up here years ago. Struggled to come to terms with the whole thing, you know? Realized most others did, too. Needed a purpose. Helpin' people's a lot better than sittin' around like a lump!
- A noble cause.
- Er... I'm okay. Thanks.
- Castaway Hookthorn
- (before completing objective 5a)
- Oh. Um, hi. Did...did Amy May send you?
- Yes, I'm fulfilling the list of requests. I'm interested in learning more.
- Harvey thought himself a pirate to the end, always on the hunt for treasure. Really just a sailor, but I thought I could send him off with a little gold. Too scared to go back into the water myself.
- Thanks. I'll see what I can do.
- Never mind.
- (after completing objective 5a)
- Harvey would be so happy to know he finally found some treasure in the end. So am I. Thank you.
- You're welcome.
- Donating Coin to Harvey's Resting Place (5a)
- Leave a gold piece for Harvey?
- Leave a gold piece.
- Leave.
- Castaway Mikki
- (before completing objective 5b)
- Amy May send you my way, did she? Had to be.
- Yes. I wanted to learn more about your loved ones.
- Early on, my parents traveled inland, hoping to find something. Anything. Never made it back. The survey team buried them, but, well...I can't go there. Could you...leave a little light for them?
- I'll light a candle for each of them.
- Sorry, I need to go.
- (after completing objective 5b)
- You did it? I... That's so kind! Knowing the forest is a bit brighter for them... Well, that really puts me at ease. Thank you so much!
- You're welcome.
- Castaway Dampfur
- (before completing objective 5d)
- I assume Amy May sent you...to learn more about my friend? Do you want to? Really?
- (if objective 5c is incomplete)
- Actually, I am here for the instrument and sheet music for Liz.
- Oh! Yes. Yes, of course! Here!
- Thanks!
- Yes, I would.
- She was a musician. A great one. Though she never got to be one professionally. Attacked by a beast in the forest—dropped her lute, tried to retrieve it. A soothing song would put her spirit to rest.
- I'll see what I can do.
- I'm busy right now.
- (after completing objective 5d)
- The forest rings with beautiful music. Ah, she'd have loved it. Might've critiqued your playing a bit; she was perfectionist, after all... Ha! I miss her. Thank you for that.
- Happy to help.
- Playing a song at Liz's Last Known Location
- (Equips a horn with the special action skill Equip Horn)
Liz's Song
A song for Liz. May you rest ever in peace, and may this song find you in this life and the next.

- Castaway Basil
- (before completing objective 5e)
- Need something? Oh... Did Amy May direct you to me?
- Yep.
- Okay. Well. I was really hoping a bouquet could be left with my partner. They loved flowers so much. Never was my thing, really, but...um... (sniffles) If you could, that'd be...that's be nice.
- I'll find the best.
- I have to go.
- (after completing objective 5e)
- You did it? A nice big bouquet? I... Oh, thank you. Thank you. Don't worry, don't worry. These are tears of joy!
- You're welcome.
- Attempting to place a bouquet at Robert's (unnamed) grave without carrying flowers
- Scratched into this grave is the name "Robert."
- I bet I can find some flowers nearby to pick.
- Picking flowers at the nearby Flowering Bush
- (Equips a flower bundle with a single skill Rush)
- Castaway Aspenson
- (before completing objective 5f)
- Hi there. I assume you've come because of Amy May's list. This is really happening?
- Yes, I wanted to hear about your friend.
- My Pine. Loved stones, Pine did. Always thought they were neat. Threw 'em. Skipped 'em. Polished 'em. (sighs) I'd appreciate if you could place one on his armor. For old time's sake.
- Thanks for sharing. I'll see what I can do.
- I have to go.
- (after completing objective 5f)
- You did it, didn't you? It's like... It's like I could almost feel it. That goofy look of concentration when he'd try to skip a stone, tongue between his teeth... Heh. Thanks a bunch, friend!
- No problem.
- Attempting to place a stone at Pine's Remains without carrying a stone
- This seems to have been Pine.
- I was told to place a stone on his remains. I can find one on the shore.
- Interacting with the stone at the shore
- (Equips a stone bundle with a single skill Rush)
- Castaway Limerock
- (before completing objective 5g)
- Hi. What? I just want to be alone.
- Amy May sent me. I'm here to learn about your partner.
- Oh yeah? Well. Fine. You want to help make her happy? Tell her a story. Always loved to know the latest scuttlebutt, you know? You done anything interesting? Probably not. But if so, tell her.
- All right. You both might be surprised...
- Okay, I'll leave you to it.
- (after completing objective 5g)
- Get the feeling I might've been wrong about you. Been hearing a few stories about you lately myself. If any of them are true, I bet you had a good one to share, didn't you? Thanks.
- You're welcome. I had plenty to choose from...
- Speaking to the grave at the Comfortable Spot (5g)
- "To Gertie. You always loved hearing of the adventures you missed. To many more in the next life."
- Hi, Gertie. I was instructed to tell you a story.
- (You think about what story to tell Gertie.)
- So, first, crabs attacked my friend's ship. He was inconsolable. But then...
- Haunting Voice: (chuckles) Always love hearing the latest scuttlebutt. (sighs)
- You're not going to believe this, Gertie: I fought some dragons recently...
- Haunting Voice: (chuckles) Always love hearing the latest scuttlebutt. (sighs)
- Sorry, I have to go.
- Good-bye.
- Upon completing all objectives 5a–5g
- Spirit of Karina: Come back to me... In the sea. Please...
- Talking to the Spirit of Karina
- I... I recognize you. You left the letter. From Lyla! Does that mean...you know where she is?
- Yes. Lyla asked me to bring the letter to you.
- Would you be able to take me to her? My spirit weakens when I leave here on my own—I can't make it by myself! But if you could take me, I think I could conserve my energy just enough to speak to her...
- Sure. You wouldn't be the first voice in my head...
- Spirit of Karina: It's taxing to stay visible away from my resting place. I'll conserve my strength. Take me to Lyla, and I'll reappear.
- Sorry, not right now.
- Sorry, I can't talk now.
- Approaching Castaway Lyla
- Spirit of Karina: Ah, Lyla! She is so close! Bring me to her, please. She needs me, one last time.
- Or if the player takes too long, then:
- Spirit of Karina: My strength is leaving me. Could we not have gotten here a bit quicker? (sighs)
- Talking to Lyla
- Hey. You're back. What's... What's going on? Need something?
- I hope this is okay—I have a surprise for you.
- Castaway Lyla: K– Karina? Wha– How? How are you here?
- Castaway Karina: Oh, love. I only have a minute... Listen to me. Truly listen. I chose my path. This isn't your burden to carry.
- Castaway Karina: This grief is consuming you. Know that I'm at peace. Enjoy life. Remember me. But move on. Find happiness. I love you.
- Castaway Lyla: I... I will try. (sobs) I can't make any promises, okay? But I'm happy you're at peace. I love you, 'Rina. Good-bye.
- Never mind.
- Talking to Lyla again
- I can't thank you enough, really. I feel... I feel some closure, I guess you'd say. Like maybe I can finally start to live again. Like I can start a new chapter.
- Glad to hear it.
- Talking to Castaway Amy May
- Well, hey there, friend! Good to see you again. Got somethin' to get off your chest?
- I think I've helped everyone I can.
- Castaway Amy May: Sure did! Not often someone truly cares about helpin' and wants nothin' in return. Heart o' gold under that armor.
- I'm good. Thanks.
- Talking to Amy May again
- Well, now! Guess you must feel the same way about makin' a difference as I do. Thanks for that, friend. Haven't seen them with this kind of optimism...ever, I don't think. You're really are somethin'!
- My pleasure.
- Talking to Lyla again
- Hi! Hope you're having a nice day, friend.
- You, too.
Notes[edit]
- Each objective 5a–5g has a corresponding NPC in Hullgarden that can be talked to. The locations of these NPCs are randomized for every map instance. All spawn locations are shown in the interactive map above.
- It's possible for the stone not to appear after visiting Pine's Remains. Check again on the next daily reset and the rock should spawn.
- Dropping the stone before reaching the remains will spawn another one in the same location after a moment.
