Erichthonios has a new companion, and you were able to witness his joy at meeting him. There you are, Player! Judging by the grin on your face, I trust the mammet is safely in Erichthonios's hands?

I hope that charming charade helped repay mine in some small way. I knew we could count on you! May that doll provide him some small reprieve from the stresses of his station.

Judging by the grin on your face, I trust the mammet is safely in Erichthonios's hands? That's why we commissioned *two* mammets from the start. I daresay Themis will be delighted to travel a whole new era by your side.
