61,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_YERUVVET_000_038","They say that were it not for you...brave Matsya and the child would have been lost to us forever."
62,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_YERUVVET_000_039","Long had I heard the rumors that a mighty dragon had forged a pact of friendship with the satrap, but never would I have expected such a kind and gentle soul."
63,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VRITRA_000_040","Truth in part...but not in whole."
64,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VRITRA_000_041","I am Vrtra, and for years uncounted hath this isle served as mine abode."
65,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VRITRA_000_042","...An isle I have ruled over as satrap, with Ahewann as my loyal servant."
66,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_043","(-???-)Are my ears to be believed!? <Emphasis>You</Emphasis> were the true satrap all along!?"
67,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_ALISAIE_000_044","Nidhana!? What are you doing here?"
68,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_045","I heard from the Radiant that you had gone to help the people of Palaka's Stand in their time of need."
69,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_046","And so I and several of my colleagues from the Great Work came to offer our services."
70,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_MATSYA_000_047","The alchemists have already brewed up some potions for Mehvan's daughter!"
71,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_048","But enough about us─<Emphasis>you</Emphasis> and your role are the far greater enigma!"
72,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_049","If you were the true satrap all along, could it be that young Varshahn was...<Emphasis>created</Emphasis>...to serve as your emissary?"
73,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VRITRA_000_050","Thou didst suspect the boy was but a simulacrum?"
74,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_051","A rumor has circulated for many years around the High Crucible that our most skilled alchemists were once commissioned by the satrap's family in secret to fashion a mammet indistinguishable from a living boy."
75,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_052","Looking at Varshahn with that knowledge...I simply put two and two together."
76,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_053","I was not alone in drawing this conclusion. But like me, they no doubt recognized that the satrap was using the simulacrum to work more closely with his people, and decided not to press the issue."
77,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_054","I had always assumed one of Ahewann's associates was manipulating it from afar─though the truth is indeed far more surprising!"
78,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_055","It is an honor to meet you in the flesh, Master Vrtra. Pray allow me to express my gratitude."
79,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_056","If you had not believed in and given unto us your scales, I do not know where we would be. Thank you...from the bottom of my heart."
80,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VRITRA_000_057","'Twas thou and thy fellow alchemists that fashioned the means to unmake the towers. You were the saviors not only of RadzatHan, but the star."
81,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_058","Far too kind you are, Master Vrtra...but the star yet wants for salvation. Once more will my colleagues and I commit the knowledge and resources at our disposal to the mission of aiding the people, in this their darkest hour."
82,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VRITRA_000_059","'Twould seem this place is in good hands. I would return to see how RadzatHan fares. What will you do, Scions?"
83,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_ALPHINAUD_000_060","I worry for the survivors we met at Purusa. Shall we pay them a visit before making our way back?"
84,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_061","In that case, might I ask a favor? Nothing too burdensome, I promise. This way!"
85,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_ALPHINAUD_000_070","Curious, isn't it? The burning sky is so ominous, yet the crackling flames here are somehow...calming."
86,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_ALISAIE_000_075","What a lovely aroma... I wonder what sort of spices those are?"
87,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_ESTINIEN_000_080","Vrtra chose to reveal his identity to the villagers of Palaka's Stand before all others. A wise choice, considering the warm reception. Heh, he even seemed a little relieved..."
88,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_ESTINIEN_000_081","It remains to be seen how the people of RadzatHan will take the news, but if this was any indication, he need not worry."
89,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_MATSYA_000_085","Oh, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>! Running through that dark jungle, there was a time when I thought all was lost! Had Master Vrtra and Estinien not arrived when they did..."
90,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_MATSYA_000_086","...No. I must focus on the good. Mehvan's precious daughter is safe and sound, and that is all that matters."
91,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_090","Needs to simmer just a bit longer, I'd say..."
92,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_091","In the meantime, I was hoping I might ask you a few questions. The red sky, these terrible beasts... What in the name of the Sisters is happening here in Thavnair?"
93,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_092","Oh my, that's rather a lot to take in..."
94,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_093","...It would seem the situation is even more grave than we suspected. Thank you, friend. My colleagues and I will use your knowledge to see if it can further our own research."
95,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_094","...And with that, here we are! A pot of piping hot chai, brewed from my own secret recipe of spices and tea leaves, together with hearty helpings of rich milk and purest sugar!"
96,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_095","I've made enough for everyone in the village. Might I trouble you to deliver a few cups?"
97,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_ALPHINAUD_000_096","The drink has medicinal properties, then?"
98,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_097","Not in the least! The ingredients are quite ordinary. It's so very tasty, though, and has a way of lifting the spirits."
99,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_098","The spicy aroma and distinctive sweetness of chai is a simple, everyday pleasure on our island. Sometimes the best medicine is the simplest."
100,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_ALPHINAUD_000_099","A lovely sentiment, Nidhana. By all means, allow us to assist."
101,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_ESTINIEN_000_100","While you lot distribute hot beverages, I'll do a sweep for errant beasts to slay─a far less arduous task, no doubt. When you've finished, look for me at the Wakeful Torana."
102,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_ALPHINAUD_000_110","I heard that the survivors we met at the temple have all returned safely. The crisis may not have passed, but being home and among friends should do much to ease their spirits."
103,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_ALISAIE_000_115","The aroma of that chai truly is irresistible... Do you suppose Nidhana would mind if I helped myself to a cup?"
104,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_120","I would be most obliged if you could deliver a few cups of chai to the villagers. I am certain it will do much to soothe their aching bodies and heavy hearts."
105,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_TIREDMAN04416_000_130","Hm...? Wait. I know you. You were the one who saved us from those beasts back at the temple..."
106,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_TIREDMAN04416_000_131","Were it not for you─well, let's not even think about that. At times like this, we mustn't dwell on what might've been, but look to the future..."
107,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_TIREDMAN04416_000_132","But what future awaits us? How can RadzatHan hope to recover from this? Most of my friends are gone, and I don't know where to turn..."
108,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_TIREDMAN04416_000_133","A cup of chai? Well, if you insist..."
109,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_TIREDMAN04416_000_134","Ahhh...that aroma has a way of clearing the mind... Come to think of it, we've faced our fair share of trials in the past as well. And no matter how hard the times, we've always come together as a people united."
110,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_TIREDMAN04416_000_135","One day at a time, one step at a time─for that is all any of us can do. Yes... Back to work. Once I've finished this cup. Thank you."
111,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_TIREDMAN04416_000_140","First order of business is securing food and shelter. We also must contact our friends in the city and see how they fare. Hah, no rest for the weary!"
112,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NAHBSHAYRA_000_150","Look at them all, lazing about! Knowing full well the beasts might strike again at any moment! Do they not realize their lives are in danger!?"
113,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NAHBSHAYRA_000_151","Well, I, for one, intend to survive! I'm too young to die! Yes, I'll leave this island behind if I must!"
114,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NAHBSHAYRA_000_152","But...but where would I go? Is anywhere safe these days!?"
115,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NAHBSHAYRA_000_153","A cup of chai? Can't you see I have more important things to worry about!?"
116,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NAHBSHAYRA_000_154","No...no, you're right. It is precisely in times like these that we must strive to remain calm and steady."
117,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NAHBSHAYRA_000_155","I do believe I'll visit the elder and see what needs to be done. If there is any way I can aid my village and my friends, I will do it."
118,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NAHBSHAYRA_000_160","Ahhh...how the warmth of the chai spreads through all my limbs... I can't remember the last time I've breathed so easily."
119,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VISHRYDE_000_170","I'm sorry, I... I just want to be left alone..."
120,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VISHRYDE_000_171","My best friend and I...we fled the village together... One of the beasts took him, and...and..."
121,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VISHRYDE_000_172","It was all I could do to run. All the while...I could hear this monstrous voice screaming my name..."
122,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VISHRYDE_000_173","Hmm? This is for me...?"
123,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VISHRYDE_000_174","Ahh... We used to drink chai together often. Shared stories over steaming cups after a hard day's work."
124,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VISHRYDE_000_175","Thank you, friend. The pain may never pass, but I must press on all the same. For his memory, and for we who must remember..."
125,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VISHRYDE_000_180","Many thanks for the chai. It helps me to remember him as he was, cup in hand and a smile on his lips..."
126,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_190","Thank you for delivering the chai, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>. Did it help to lift the villagers' spirits?"
127,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_191","That is heartening to hear, indeed! The Final Days show no signs of abating, but that is all the more reason that we must try to keep our composure."
128,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_192","Our lives have been forever changed. The people we have lost will never return to us. These tragedies will long weigh on our hearts..."
129,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_193","But we have the capacity to live with our suffering. To carry the agony till we too join the fallen in death."
130,"TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_194","It is not a surrender, but a recognition. For it is only in acceptance that we find the strength to move forward."

61 57 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VRITRA_000_034 Mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters, sons and daughters... Every death another void that can never be filled...
62 58 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VRITRA_000_035 We who survive them must carry the weight of their memory, as we strive to regain a semblance of what we have lost.
63 59 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VRITRA_000_036 Qerasaf and Mehvan's babe is a child of Thavnair as well. I thank you for returning her to us safe.
64 60 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_YERUVVET_000_037 O, most great and merciful wyrm... I have not the words to express my gratitude...
65 61 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_YERUVVET_000_038 They say that were it not for you...brave Matsya and the child would have been lost to us forever.
66 62 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_YERUVVET_000_039 Long had I heard the rumors that a mighty dragon had forged a pact of friendship with the satrap, but never would I have expected such a kind and gentle soul.
67 63 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VRITRA_000_040 Truth in part...but not in whole.
68 64 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VRITRA_000_041 I am Vrtra, and for years uncounted hath this isle served as mine abode.
69 65 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VRITRA_000_042 ...An isle I have ruled over as satrap, with Ahewann as my loyal servant.
70 66 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_043 (-???-)Are my ears to be believed!? <Emphasis>You</Emphasis> were the true satrap all along!?
71 67 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_ALISAIE_000_044 Nidhana!? What are you doing here?
72 68 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_045 I heard from the Radiant that you had gone to help the people of Palaka's Stand in their time of need.
73 69 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_046 And so I and several of my colleagues from the Great Work came to offer our services.
74 70 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_MATSYA_000_047 The alchemists have already brewed up some potions for Mehvan's daughter!
75 71 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_048 But enough about us─<Emphasis>you</Emphasis> and your role are the far greater enigma!
76 72 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_049 If you were the true satrap all along, could it be that young Varshahn was...<Emphasis>created</Emphasis>...to serve as your emissary?
77 73 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VRITRA_000_050 Thou didst suspect the boy was but a simulacrum?
78 74 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_051 A rumor has circulated for many years around the High Crucible that our most skilled alchemists were once commissioned by the satrap's family in secret to fashion a mammet indistinguishable from a living boy.
79 75 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_052 Looking at Varshahn with that knowledge...I simply put two and two together.
80 76 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_053 I was not alone in drawing this conclusion. But like me, they no doubt recognized that the satrap was using the simulacrum to work more closely with his people, and decided not to press the issue.
81 77 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_054 I had always assumed one of Ahewann's associates was manipulating it from afar─though the truth is indeed far more surprising!
82 78 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_055 It is an honor to meet you in the flesh, Master Vrtra. Pray allow me to express my gratitude.
83 79 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_056 If you had not believed in and given unto us your scales, I do not know where we would be. Thank you...from the bottom of my heart.
84 80 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VRITRA_000_057 'Twas thou and thy fellow alchemists that fashioned the means to unmake the towers. You were the saviors not only of Radz–at–Han, but the star.
85 81 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_058 Far too kind you are, Master Vrtra...but the star yet wants for salvation. Once more will my colleagues and I commit the knowledge and resources at our disposal to the mission of aiding the people, in this their darkest hour.
86 82 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VRITRA_000_059 'Twould seem this place is in good hands. I would return to see how Radz–at–Han fares. What will you do, Scions?
87 83 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_ALPHINAUD_000_060 I worry for the survivors we met at Purusa. Shall we pay them a visit before making our way back?
88 84 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_061 In that case, might I ask a favor? Nothing too burdensome, I promise. This way!
89 85 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_ALPHINAUD_000_070 Curious, isn't it? The burning sky is so ominous, yet the crackling flames here are somehow...calming.
90 86 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_ALISAIE_000_075 What a lovely aroma... I wonder what sort of spices those are?
91 87 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_ESTINIEN_000_080 Vrtra chose to reveal his identity to the villagers of Palaka's Stand before all others. A wise choice, considering the warm reception. Heh, he even seemed a little relieved...
92 88 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_ESTINIEN_000_081 It remains to be seen how the people of Radz–at–Han will take the news, but if this was any indication, he need not worry.
93 89 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_MATSYA_000_085 Oh, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>! Running through that dark jungle, there was a time when I thought all was lost! Had Master Vrtra and Estinien not arrived when they did...
94 90 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_MATSYA_000_086 ...No. I must focus on the good. Mehvan's precious daughter is safe and sound, and that is all that matters.
95 91 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_090 Needs to simmer just a bit longer, I'd say...
96 92 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_091 In the meantime, I was hoping I might ask you a few questions. The red sky, these terrible beasts... What in the name of the Sisters is happening here in Thavnair?
97 93 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_092 Oh my, that's rather a lot to take in...
98 94 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_093 ...It would seem the situation is even more grave than we suspected. Thank you, friend. My colleagues and I will use your knowledge to see if it can further our own research.
99 95 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_094 ...And with that, here we are! A pot of piping hot chai, brewed from my own secret recipe of spices and tea leaves, together with hearty helpings of rich milk and purest sugar!
100 96 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_095 I've made enough for everyone in the village. Might I trouble you to deliver a few cups?
101 97 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_ALPHINAUD_000_096 The drink has medicinal properties, then?
102 98 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_097 Not in the least! The ingredients are quite ordinary. It's so very tasty, though, and has a way of lifting the spirits.
103 99 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_098 The spicy aroma and distinctive sweetness of chai is a simple, everyday pleasure on our island. Sometimes the best medicine is the simplest.
104 100 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_ALPHINAUD_000_099 A lovely sentiment, Nidhana. By all means, allow us to assist.
105 101 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_ESTINIEN_000_100 While you lot distribute hot beverages, I'll do a sweep for errant beasts to slay─a far less arduous task, no doubt. When you've finished, look for me at the Wakeful Torana.
106 102 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_ALPHINAUD_000_110 I heard that the survivors we met at the temple have all returned safely. The crisis may not have passed, but being home and among friends should do much to ease their spirits.
107 103 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_ALISAIE_000_115 The aroma of that chai truly is irresistible... Do you suppose Nidhana would mind if I helped myself to a cup?
108 104 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_120 I would be most obliged if you could deliver a few cups of chai to the villagers. I am certain it will do much to soothe their aching bodies and heavy hearts.
109 105 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_TIREDMAN04416_000_130 Hm...? Wait. I know you. You were the one who saved us from those beasts back at the temple...
110 106 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_TIREDMAN04416_000_131 Were it not for you─well, let's not even think about that. At times like this, we mustn't dwell on what might've been, but look to the future...
111 107 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_TIREDMAN04416_000_132 But what future awaits us? How can Radz–at–Han hope to recover from this? Most of my friends are gone, and I don't know where to turn...
112 108 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_TIREDMAN04416_000_133 A cup of chai? Well, if you insist...
113 109 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_TIREDMAN04416_000_134 Ahhh...that aroma has a way of clearing the mind... Come to think of it, we've faced our fair share of trials in the past as well. And no matter how hard the times, we've always come together as a people united.
114 110 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_TIREDMAN04416_000_135 One day at a time, one step at a time─for that is all any of us can do. Yes... Back to work. Once I've finished this cup. Thank you.
115 111 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_TIREDMAN04416_000_140 First order of business is securing food and shelter. We also must contact our friends in the city and see how they fare. Hah, no rest for the weary!
116 112 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NAHBSHAYRA_000_150 Look at them all, lazing about! Knowing full well the beasts might strike again at any moment! Do they not realize their lives are in danger!?
117 113 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NAHBSHAYRA_000_151 Well, I, for one, intend to survive! I'm too young to die! Yes, I'll leave this island behind if I must!
118 114 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NAHBSHAYRA_000_152 But...but where would I go? Is anywhere safe these days!?
119 115 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NAHBSHAYRA_000_153 A cup of chai? Can't you see I have more important things to worry about!?
120 116 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NAHBSHAYRA_000_154 No...no, you're right. It is precisely in times like these that we must strive to remain calm and steady.
121 117 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NAHBSHAYRA_000_155 I do believe I'll visit the elder and see what needs to be done. If there is any way I can aid my village and my friends, I will do it.
122 118 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NAHBSHAYRA_000_160 Ahhh...how the warmth of the chai spreads through all my limbs... I can't remember the last time I've breathed so easily.
123 119 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VISHRYDE_000_170 I'm sorry, I... I just want to be left alone...
124 120 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VISHRYDE_000_171 My best friend and I...we fled the village together... One of the beasts took him, and...and...
125 121 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VISHRYDE_000_172 It was all I could do to run. All the while...I could hear this monstrous voice screaming my name...
126 122 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VISHRYDE_000_173 Hmm? This is for me...?
127 123 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VISHRYDE_000_174 Ahh... We used to drink chai together often. Shared stories over steaming cups after a hard day's work.
128 124 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VISHRYDE_000_175 Thank you, friend. The pain may never pass, but I must press on all the same. For his memory, and for we who must remember...
129 125 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_VISHRYDE_000_180 Many thanks for the chai. It helps me to remember him as he was, cup in hand and a smile on his lips...
130 126 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_190 Thank you for delivering the chai, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>. Did it help to lift the villagers' spirits?
131 127 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_191 That is heartening to hear, indeed! The Final Days show no signs of abating, but that is all the more reason that we must try to keep our composure.
132 128 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_192 Our lives have been forever changed. The people we have lost will never return to us. These tragedies will long weigh on our hearts...
133 129 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_193 But we have the capacity to live with our suffering. To carry the agony till we too join the fallen in death.
134 130 TEXT_AKTKMD108_04416_NIDHANA_000_194 It is not a surrender, but a recognition. For it is only in acceptance that we find the strength to move forward.
