83,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_SYSTEM_000_077","From frond to tip, no scratches or blemishes mar this immaculate specimen. Nevertheless, if not for its excessive length and girth, one might think it was an ordinary carrot."
84,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_SYSTEM_000_078","The blue variety is strangely supple to the touch and smells vaguely of mint. Its excessive length and girth only adds to the dubiousness of this so-called carrot."
85,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_SYSTEM_000_079","While it has no peculiar smell to speak of, the yellow variant is unusually light and springy. These qualities, together with its excessive length and girth, would lead anyone to question whether it is indeed a carrot."
86,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_SYSTEM_000_080","The soft texture and redolent aroma of this crimson creation belie its staggering weight. The excessive length and girth only compound the mystery, leaving you perplexed as to the nature of this “carrot.”"

90,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_COOKINGWAY_000_091","Ah yes, a fine choice! One of my personal favorites, actually."
91,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_COOKINGWAY_000_092","Please, dig in! I'm eager to hear what you think."

93,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_SYSTEM_000_105","Judging from the expectant faces, it is clear you are expected to eat the carrot where Cookingway can observe your honest reaction to his work."
94,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_SYSTEM_000_110","With great trepidation, you take a bite out of the carrot..."
95,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_SYSTEM_000_111","There is a satisfying crunch as you sink your teeth into the orange skin, and a warm tingling sensation runs down your spine. With the second bite, a wave of euphoria washes over you, and you drown in bliss. Alas, as you finish, the elation fades, leaving you with a desperate craving for another carrot."
96,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_SYSTEM_000_112","You are taken by surprise when blue juices burst forth from the carrot and dribble down your chin. As you take your second bite, you can feel your mental faculties sharpening. Your mind opens to the universe, and for a brief moment the mysteries of existence are simple, transformative truths...but the revelation is fleeting... When you at last finish the carrot, a sweet-yet-sour aftertaste lingers on your tongue, and the number forty-two in your mind."
97,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_SYSTEM_000_113","You snap off a piece of the carrot, enjoying its crunchy texture. Righteous confidence surges within you, a certainty that you are the center of the universe─that all creation is a story and you the star, beloved and perfect and special. A god, worthy of worship and prayer...or at the very least a second roll should the dice treat you poorly."
98,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_SYSTEM_000_114","The carrot is oddly tender, but as you begin to chew, a rich aroma fills your nostrils. A newfound vigor begins welling within you! The rumbling of your stomach, however, suggests it may simply be indigestion."
99,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_LIVINGWAY_000_115","The carrot met with your approval, yes?"
100,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_COOKINGWAY_000_120","What did you think? Unlike anything you've ever tasted, yes?"
101,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_COOKINGWAY_000_121","The carrot of happiness is full to bursting with nutrients and is guaranteed to leave you feeling satiated. It's a staple among us Loporrits."
102,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_COOKINGWAY_000_122","The philosopher's carrot improves mental fortitude. Something of a shock at first bite, but it's well worth the enhanced powers of cognition."
103,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_COOKINGWAY_000_123","The lucky carrot is...well...to be honest we're not quite sure how it was first made. A happy accident, you might say. But as the name suggests, after eating one, you'll feel blessed with good fortune."
104,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_COOKINGWAY_000_124","The iron carrot can be a bit difficult to digest, but the boost to endurance it promises makes it the perfect meal before a day of heavy lifting."
105,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_COOKINGWAY_000_125","We have plenty of other varieties, too. Bleeding carrots to improve blood flow, dream carrots to help with sleep..."
106,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_COOKINGWAY_000_126","So you see, we have a carrot for every occasion!"

108,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_A3_000_128","These carrots are...extraordinary..."

111,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_LIVINGWAY_000_131","Then why do you seem so disappointed? If they're lacking somehow, we need to know."
112,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_LIVINGWAY_000_132","You don't like carrots...? Oh, you must mean you don't like them served in this fashion. Worry not─we have puréed versions on hand if you haven't the time to chew."

116,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_LIVINGWAY_000_136","Of course we are! But, well...it was only quite recently that we established contact..."
117,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_LIVINGWAY_000_137","Even holding a conversation was a struggle at first, so imagine our surprise when they sent a mountain of books and documents with no clear instructions. The sheer amount of information was overwhelming! If it wasn't for that encyclopedia I found, we would have been at a loss where to begin."
118,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_LIVINGWAY_000_138","And so we decided, rather than divide our resources to prepare a variety of middling and potentially unsatisfying meals, it would be more efficient to devote our efforts to the production of a single perfect food."
119,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_THANCRED_000_139","That's all well and good, but man cannot live on raw carrots alone."
120,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_THANCRED_000_140","Have you considered <Emphasis>cooking</Emphasis> them?"
121,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_COOKINGWAY_000_141","You mean steaming, boiling, roasting, and the like? I suppose we <Emphasis>could</Emphasis> prepare the carrots in other ways..."
122,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_COOKINGWAY_000_142","But our primary concern was efficiency, and what's more efficient than sinking your teeth into a carrot fresh from production?"
123,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_THANCRED_000_143","A rather strange approach to take for one named <Emphasis>Cooking</Emphasis>way, isn't it?"
124,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_COOKINGWAY_000_144","Well, technically speaking, Cookingway isn't my given name. When first created, we were all named in the old tongue─you know, that otherwise impenetrable parlance the watcher speaks?"
125,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_COOKINGWAY_000_145","After we received a great tome of words─a dictionary, that is─from our collaborators, we learned your language. Adverbs, gerunds, present-continuous verb conjugations... Just the basics."
126,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_COOKINGWAY_000_146","Then, we found the terms related to our given tasks, and used them to form new names. Aren't they helpful?"
127,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_THANCRED_000_147","No, not really. But it does explain a great deal."
128,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_URIANGER_000_148","Wherefore didst thy kind deem such a change necessary?"
129,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_COOKINGWAY_000_149","When the rest of your people arrive, we want to be certain they understand immediately what each of us does. You'd never be able to pronounce our original names anyway."

131,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_YSHTOLA_000_151","I hope our critiques, such as they are, were helpful to you."
132,"TEXT_AKTKMC104_04402_YSHTOLA_000_152","Though if you should decide to preserve flora and fauna from Etheirys as well, you would be able to offer the passengers a more balanced diet."
