1,"TEXT_AKTKLA505_04164_SEQ_01","Your discussion with T'laqa Tia is suddenly interrupted by a flustered research assistant, who reports that a whale has somehow wandered its way into Scholar's Harbor. The harbormaster has requested T'laqa Tia's immediate presence, and the professor, in turn, asks for yours."
2,"TEXT_AKTKLA505_04164_SEQ_02","Upon arriving at the harbor and identifying the whale, T'laqa Tia decides to bring the confused creature in for a thorough examination. As he and his team may be tending to the whale for some time, the professor asks that you await him back at Searchers' Meet."
3,"TEXT_AKTKLA505_04164_SEQ_03","T'laqa Tia does not keep you waiting long, but it seems his analysis of the wayward whale has produced more questions than answers. It is at this point that Kytte arrives to report a similar incident, wherein a veritable legion of fish has washed ashore in Yedlihmad not far from the experimental aetheryte. The coincidence is too great to ignore. Plucking up his courage, T'laqa Tia volunteers himself to join you in Yedlihmad, where you might begin investigating this worrisome occurrence."
4,"TEXT_AKTKLA505_04164_SEQ_04","You arrive in Yedlihmad to find T'laqa Tia suffering from a ghastly case of aether sickness. As he is in no state to investigate much of anything for the moment, it falls to you to gather information on the wayward sea life."
5,"TEXT_AKTKLA505_04164_SEQ_05","Your inquiries into the recent shoreline incident have produced some interesting responses. T'laqa Tia will wish to hear what you have learned."
6,"TEXT_AKTKLA505_04164_SEQ_06","You share your findings with T'laqa Tia, and he believes the fish which were carried upstream might provide some valuable data. According to the professor, baiting your hook with leeches should allow you to catch an Alnairan salmon somewhere along Ksiroda."
7,"TEXT_AKTKLA505_04164_SEQ_07","You deliver the salmon to an appreciative─and apologetic─T'laqa Tia. With fish sample in hand, the yet-shaky scholar makes preparations to return to Searchers' Meet."
8,"TEXT_AKTKLA505_04164_SEQ_08","You return to find T'laqa Tia has already completed his analysis of the salmon. As suspected, it contained the same levels of aether as the wayward whale, and, after a brief discussion, you agree that the tidal bore─and thus some property of the moon─is likely the culprit of this strange behavior. T'laqa Tia theorizes that Zodiark's demise and the sudden release of massive amounts of aether could account for the discrepancies, but obtaining an uncontaminated species for comparison is an endeavor that will require more careful consideration..."

53,"TEXT_AKTKLA505_04164_TLAQATIA_000_013","Ah, but I haven't introduced you two yet, have I? This is Aubracie, one of my new research assistants. She's been a great help in analyzing all the data we've collected."

57,"TEXT_AKTKLA505_04164_TLAQATIA_000_017","My apologies, but it seems our work will have to wait until later. In the meanwhile, would you accompany me to the harbor? Your insight into the situation could prove most valuable."

60,"TEXT_AKTKLA505_04164_AUBRACIE_000_021","It's most strange. It doesn't appear to be wounded, nor have there been any notable storms of late. Whatever might have caused it to veer so far off its normal course?"
61,"TEXT_AKTKLA505_04164_TLAQATIA_000_022","What indeed... At any rate, we need to move it to one of our facilities and ensure it's kept safe while we tend to its wounds it may have and study it more. I suppose we should check its aether levels as well. Ready a team for me, Aubracie."

66,"TEXT_AKTKLA505_04164_TLAQATIA_000_032","The creature's aether levels were also cause for concern, which would explain why it wound up somewhere so far from its usual habitat. That said, we're still none the wiser as to <Emphasis>what</Emphasis> caused all of this."

71,"TEXT_AKTKLA505_04164_TLAQATIA_000_037","That sounds too similar to be mere coincidence. Curious behavior by aquatic life has been known to portend natural disasters. Yes, this strikes me as very much related to my studies."
72,"TEXT_AKTKLA505_04164_TLAQATIA_000_038","That said, nothing I have gleaned thus far has suggested that aether currents can change so drastically as to inflict nearby creatures with aether sickness..."
73,"TEXT_AKTKLA505_04164_TLAQATIA_000_039","All I have observed suggests that the currents of the planet follow a simple and regular rhythm, not unlike the tides. Indeed, the entirety of my research up until now has been focused on proving this point."
74,"TEXT_AKTKLA505_04164_TLAQATIA_000_040","If there has been a sudden disturbance in the underwater aether currents, then it will take some time to determine the cause. I also need to attend to the whale. Oh, when will I have time to return to my thesis...?"

86,"TEXT_AKTKLA505_04164_TLAQATIA_000_050","You don't have to tell me that. Still, time is of the essence. Besides, I'll never be truly respected as a researcher if I don't go out and get my hands dirty from time to time."
87,"TEXT_AKTKLA505_04164_TLAQATIA_000_051","I have let my fears rule me for far too long. Today is the day I conquer them!"

Heavens have mercy... So you believe that a sudden change in the concentration of aether in the nearby currents caused them to completely alter their behavior?

Thankfully, it wasn't nearly as uncomfortable as that dreadful experimental aetheryte. Precisely. That said, the change was of such magnitude that I would struggle to explain it with my initial hypothesis of aetheric tides.

As expected, its aether levels are almost identical to those of the wayward whale. On the contrary, if such sudden changes are possible, then I may have to reconsider my premise altogether. Moreover, we can't safely return the whale to the sea until we know precisely what is at the root of this problem.

Moreover, we can't safely return the whale to the sea until we know precisely what is at the root of this problem. Is it not connected to the ebb and flow of the tide?

If we posit that the underwater aether currents are affected by the moon─much as the tide itself is─then any sudden change in the moon's state would naturally affect underwater aether levels as well.

The destruction of Zodiark would have freed an unfathomable amount of aether from within the moon. It would be only logical if this had an impact on the underwater aether currents!

If this is the explanation, my initial theory may yet be viable─with this recent outpouring of aether being the exception that proves the rule. We will need to watch closely for any similar incidents in the near future...
