※The difficulty of this quest will be synced to your current level."
1,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_SEQ_01","Thanks in no small part to your aid in gathering resources for the excavation effort, Qitarl Natl and his Stewards are at last prepared to delve deeper into the tunnels of Hopl's Stopple. Alas, there is one small complication: the presence of an arcane ward preventing access to the inner chambers that is passable only by servants of Ox'Dalan, protector of the underworld. As all present ponder a suitable course of action, the Great Serpent of Ronka lets forth a great scree, no doubt seeking to impart wisdom to your band. Sadly, no one present is able to comprehend the meaning of the divine protector's words, leaving you no choice but to accompany Chaqurl Qhotl to Slitherbough to seek the aid of the one man who can.
※Please note that the difficulty of this quest has been synced to your current level. Furthermore, you may not proceed with a class or job that is different from when you accepted this quest."
2,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_SEQ_02","You find Quinfort, who is more than happy to interpret the words of the great serpent for your enlightenment. As the Keeper of Whispers tells it, the divine protector is most helpfully trying to convey that your impasse might be addressed by fashioning a talisman of sorts that will ward against danger, allowing the Qitari to delve deeper without becoming dinner for the ravening beasts that work below."
3,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_SEQ_03","You deliver the requested supplies to Valan, who deftly fashions a talisman according to Quinfort's instructions. Now able to probe the depths of Hopl's Stopple without fear of being devoured by creatures of the darkness, the Stewards' excavation team begins their dig, but will they succeed in finding the stone tablets they seek? Chaqurl Qhotl can scarce contain his anticipation to learn what secrets might be unearthed."
4,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_SEQ_04","The Qitari rejoice as their excavation effort succeeds in exhuming the first Qitari stela: one of many great stone tablets on which is writ the sum total of the knowledge and history of their ancient race. The stone, however, has been weathered over the ages, obscuring key passages necessary to comprehend the writings in full. At the exhortation of the great serpent, the Qitari resolve to restore the tablets to the best of their ability. However, the missing text leaves many passages open for interpretation, and Qitarl Natl and his son Chaqurl Qhotl have differing views about the intended message. Seeking the wisdom of an impartial arbitrator, they turn to you..."

49,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_CHAQURLQHOTL_000_002","Anyhow! Thanks to you, Father says that we're ready to begin the ex-<Emphasis>vacation</Emphasis>! Isn't this all so exciting?"
50,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_003","Chaqurl. We must remember to remain calm and composed. These caves are vast, their tunnels burrowing deep into the bowels of the land. Slow, steady, and <Emphasis>circumspect</Emphasis> is the order of the day."
51,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_004","As we speak, a preliminary exploration team is surveying the tunnels to determine where we might best begin the excavation. We will await their findings before deciding on the best way to move forward."

55,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_CHAQURLQHOTL_000_008","We can't start digging? But why? What did you find down there?"
56,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_TWARLMANOL_000_009","No sooner had we stepped through the entrance, our whiskers twitching in anticipation of the wonders that awaited, than did we see them─nasty creatures swarming in every nook and cranny of the caves!"
57,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_010","...A most troubling development indeed. We Qitari are scribes, not warriors. Indeed, it was the presence of fearsome fiends─and worse─blocking our way through the Ravel that kept us trapped for a hundred years. Are we doomed to suffer a similar fate here?"
58,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_Q1_000_000","What will you say?"

63,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_013","...A rub. In our preliminary explorations of the Stopple, we have discovered that another ward seals off the tunnels below. A ward not unlike the one that barred the entrance, but with one notable─and unfortunate─difference."
64,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_014","It is a ward impassable to all but the servants of Dalan─namely, the Qitari. No, I fear we will have to find our own way to dispatch the beasts that have burrowed their way up from the depths..."
65,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_CHAQURLQHOTL_000_015","But without Sirmadam <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>'s aid, we'll be chewed up the moment we step in there─tails and whiskers and all!"

67,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_CHAQURLQHOTL_000_017","The great serpent...it speaks!"
68,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_018","Indeed...and yet, it does not move. Till now, we have had only to follow where it goes. This time, it appears we must fully grasp the import of his message. A message which, sadly, is beyond my comprehension. If only there were someone who─but, of course! The son of Dwatl!"
69,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_CHAQURLQHOTL_000_019","The son of... You mean, that tall fellow who likes to wave his arms in the air when he talks!?"

71,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_CHAQURLQHOTL_000_021","Would you kindly, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>? Father and I would appreciate it ever so muchly and more! Now come along, great serpent!"
72,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_030","The Qitari boy told me you came seeking Quinfort's counsel. Are you sure you're feeling quite okay, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>?"
73,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_CHAQURLQHOTL_000_031","Slitherbough is full of tunnels, too! If Father wasn't waiting for us back at the Stopple, I'd love to go digging and delving here, too!"
74,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_BOUSHITSUCHINOKO_000_032","Scree!"
75,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_040","What's this you say!? Fell beasts prowl the tunnels at every turn? No doubt they are remnants of the shadows that wander the forests come to life! Demons, come to suck dry the currents of aether that give the Greatwood life, reducing our home to a withered husk!"
76,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_041","They <Emphasis>could</Emphasis> be that. Or they could simply be nasty little brutes that crawled their way up from between the rocks. You know, like the ones around here."
77,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_CHAQURLQHOTL_000_042","Valan, my good sirmadam! You know of these creatures, too?"
78,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_043","I do. Mother tells me that when our ancestors first came to Slitherbough, they were set upon by a swarm of ravenous creatures that crawled up from below. Fortunately, one of the elder priests managed to utter an incantation that drove them away."
79,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_044","If you look closely at the walls around us, you can see glyphs carved in them. The same protective magic that saved our forefathers then has been worked into the very walls around us. In a sense, the settlement of Slitherbough itself serves as a ward against the dangers that lurk beneath us."
80,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_045","Just so, Valan! And it is precisely wards and incantations of this sort that I have made the focus of my studies of late!"
81,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_CHAQURLQHOTL_000_046","I remain ever impressed with your knowledge, my good sirmadams. Might it be too much to ask if you could teach this incantation to the great serpent, that he might protect us in our expedition below?"
82,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_BOUSHITSUCHINOKO_000_047","Scree...?"
83,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_048","Wh-What...what blasphemy do you speak, child!? Do you think <Emphasis>me</Emphasis>, a humble servant of the wood, so brazen as to believe he could enlighten the divine protector itself!?"
84,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_049","<sigh> Look...this isn't exactly my area of expertise, but it strikes me that there might be a simpler way to approach this."
85,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_050","Why don't we simply fashion a talisman or two for them? You know, like the ones we've always used to keep danger at bay. I can craft a simple object to serve as the vessel, then Quinfort can mutter a few words and enchant it as he sees fit."
86,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_100_050","Tradition dictates that the talisman be fashioned from materials indelibly connected to the bearer's home. Those of us who live in Slitherbough usually gather what we need from the Citia Swamps, but for our Qitari friends, we'll have to look further east."
87,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_051","<Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>...your knowledge of rocks and stones just might serve us well here. Why don't you head over to Mjrl's Regret and see if you can't find us a serpent's-eye? It's a rare gem that we often carry about to ward off danger."
88,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_100_051","<Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>...your knowledge of trees and shrubs just might serve us well here. Why don't you head over to Mjrl's Regret and see if you can't find us a spectral cocoon. It's a casing of spun silk that we often carry about to ward off danger."
89,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_200_051","<Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>...your angling aptitude just might serve us well here. Why don't you head over to Mjrl's Tears and see if you can't fish us up a shimmershell. It's a sea-dwelling creature whose husk we often carry about to ward off danger."
90,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_300_051","If you're in need of appetizing bait, I figure a fruit worm should suffice. Speaking of fruit worms, doesn't the way they wriggle and squirm remind you of─on second thought, never mind."
91,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_052","And I shall immediately begin weaving an incantation especially tailored to protect our good friends from the sort of terrifying creatures that infest the caves and tunnels they seek to explore! Muahahaha! A foolproof plan if ever there was one!"
92,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_053","Chaqurl, you can stay here with me in Slitherbough and help me collect the other materials I need. It'll be the perfect opportunity to introduce you to my fellow Blessed."
93,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_054","Once we have everything we need, let's meet up again at Hopl's Stopple. I want to test the effectiveness of the talisman for myself before we leave Chaqurl and his friends on their own."
94,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_064","I can scarce wait to put my prodigious talents to use for the sake of our Qitari friends!"
95,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_065","Oh, there you are! Were you able to find something suitable for making our talisman?"
96,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_066","Why, yes. This should serve us quite well. Just give me a moment or two─I'll round up the materials Chaqurl and I gathered from the village and whip up something in no time."
97,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_067","Just add a feather here, here, and here, then thread through this length of rope, and...yes, this should do it!"
98,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_CHAQURLQHOTL_000_070","It's...it's beautiful! And this will let us begin the ex-<Emphasis>vacation</Emphasis> in safety, you say?"
99,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_071","Not so fast. The talisman needs to be enchanted before it's of any use. As it is now, it's little more than a fancy little ornament."
100,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_072","Well, Quinfort? This is the moment you've been waiting for, isn't it?"
101,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_073","Muahahaha! Say no more! Stand back and bear witness as Quinfort, descendant of Dwatl, weaves an incantation the likes of which your eyes have never seen!"
102,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_074","Why do I have a bad feeling about this...?"
103,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_075","Worry not, dear Valan! In truth, at first I was uncertain which of the many prayers I have memorized would serve us best. A traditional chant of the Night's Blessed? But wait...the Qitari are an ancient race, so perhaps this calls for an incantation from ancient Ronka?"
104,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_076","Long did I ponder─choose poorly, after all, and it could mean death and destruction for our friends, if not the forest itself! Fortunately, it was then that the great serpent came to me in a vision, enlightening me as to the precise words that will deliver us to salvation: words which have long been writ in the <Emphasis>Gospel of Quinfort</Emphasis>!"
105,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_077","You're going to enchant this talisman with ramblings from your dream diary? Now I <Emphasis>really</Emphasis> have a bad feeling about this..."
106,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_078","Do not be silly, Valan. The great serpent speaks through me, and I am but a vessel for his divine wisdom. Hark, it is precisely as it says in chapter fifty-two, verse five..."

117,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_087","Very well. It is clear you do not take the task lightly. Perhaps you are coming of age after all. And with that, I believe it's time we started digging."

124,"TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_SYSTEM_000_095","The great serpent wriggles about and lets out a clear, clarion call. It would seem that it wishes to aid the Qitari in their effort to reclaim their history."

Alas, there is one small complication: the presence of an arcane ward preventing access to the inner chambers that is passable only by servants of Ox'Dalan, protector of the underworld. As all present ponder a suitable course of action, the Great Serpent of Ronka lets forth a great scree, no doubt seeking to impart wisdom to your band. Sadly, no one present is able to comprehend the meaning of the divine protector's words, leaving you no choice but to accompany Chaqurl Qhotl to Slitherbough to seek the aid of the one man who can. ※Please note that the difficulty of this quest has been synced to your current level. Furthermore, you may not proceed with a class or job that is different from when you accepted this quest.

As the Keeper of Whispers tells it, the divine protector is most helpfully trying to convey that your impasse might be addressed by fashioning a talisman of sorts that will ward against danger, allowing the Qitari to delve deeper without becoming dinner for the ravening beasts that work below.

Now able to probe the depths of Hopl's Stopple without fear of being devoured by creatures of the darkness, the Stewards' excavation team begins their dig, but will they succeed in finding the stone tablets they seek? Chaqurl Qhotl can scarce contain his anticipation to learn what secrets might be unearthed.
8 4 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_SEQ_04 The Qitari rejoice as their excavation effort succeeds in exhuming the first Qitari stela: one of many great stone tablets on which is writ the sum total of the knowledge and history of their ancient race. The stone, however, has been weathered over the ages, obscuring key passages necessary to comprehend the writings in full. At the exhortation of the great serpent, the Qitari resolve to restore the tablets to the best of their ability. However, the missing text leaves many passages open for interpretation, and Qitarl Natl and his son Chaqurl Qhotl have differing views about the intended message. Seeking the wisdom of an impartial arbitrator, they turn to you...

82 78 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_043 I do. Mother tells me that when our ancestors first came to Slitherbough, they were set upon by a swarm of ravenous creatures that crawled up from below. Fortunately, one of the elder priests managed to utter an incantation that drove them away.
83 79 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_044 If you look closely at the walls around us, you can see glyphs carved in them. The same protective magic that saved our forefathers then has been worked into the very walls around us. In a sense, the settlement of Slitherbough itself serves as a ward against the dangers that lurk beneath us.
84 80 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_045 Just so, Valan! And it is precisely wards and incantations of this sort that I have made the focus of my studies of late!
85 81 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_CHAQURLQHOTL_000_046 I remain ever impressed with your knowledge, my good sirmadams. Might it be too much to ask if you could teach this incantation to the great serpent, that he might protect us in our expedition below?

90 86 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_100_050 Tradition dictates that the talisman be fashioned from materials indelibly connected to the bearer's home. Those of us who live in Slitherbough usually gather what we need from the Citia Swamps, but for our Qitari friends, we'll have to look further east.

95 91 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_052 And I shall immediately begin weaving an incantation especially tailored to protect our good friends from the sort of terrifying creatures that infest the caves and tunnels they seek to explore! Muahahaha! A foolproof plan if ever there was one!
96 92 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_053 Chaqurl, you can stay here with me in Slitherbough and help me collect the other materials I need. It'll be the perfect opportunity to introduce you to my fellow Blessed.
97 93 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_054 Once we have everything we need, let's meet up again at Hopl's Stopple. I want to test the effectiveness of the talisman for myself before we leave Chaqurl and his friends on their own.
98 94 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_064 I can scarce wait to put my prodigious talents to use for the sake of our Qitari friends!
99 95 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_065 Oh, there you are! Were you able to find something suitable for making our talisman?
100 96 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_066 Why, yes. This should serve us quite well. Just give me a moment or two─I'll round up the materials Chaqurl and I gathered from the village and whip up something in no time.
101 97 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_067 Just add a feather here, here, and here, then thread through this length of rope, and...yes, this should do it!
102 98 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_CHAQURLQHOTL_000_070 It's...it's beautiful! And this will let us begin the ex-<Emphasis>vacation</Emphasis> in safety, you say?
103 99 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_071 Not so fast. The talisman needs to be enchanted before it's of any use. As it is now, it's little more than a fancy little ornament.
104 100 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_072 Well, Quinfort? This is the moment you've been waiting for, isn't it?
105 101 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_073 Muahahaha! Say no more! Stand back and bear witness as Quinfort, descendant of Dwatl, weaves an incantation the likes of which your eyes have never seen!
106 102 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_074 Why do I have a bad feeling about this...?
107 103 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_075 Worry not, dear Valan! In truth, at first I was uncertain which of the many prayers I have memorized would serve us best. A traditional chant of the Night's Blessed? But wait...the Qitari are an ancient race, so perhaps this calls for an incantation from ancient Ronka?
108 104 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_076 Long did I ponder─choose poorly, after all, and it could mean death and destruction for our friends, if not the forest itself! Fortunately, it was then that the great serpent came to me in a vision, enlightening me as to the precise words that will deliver us to salvation: words which have long been writ in the <Emphasis>Gospel of Quinfort</Emphasis>!
109 105 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_077 You're going to enchant this talisman with ramblings from your dream diary? Now I <Emphasis>really</Emphasis> have a bad feeling about this...
110 106 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_078 Do not be silly, Valan. The great serpent speaks through me, and I am but a vessel for his divine wisdom. Hark, it is precisely as it says in chapter fifty-two, verse five...
111 107 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_100_078 “The goddess's claws stained cerulean, she did await the arrival of the stewards. The coming of the darkness marked a new dawn; a proud people returned to the wood where the egg once fell from high above...”
112 108 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_200_078 “O, Great Serpent of Ronka, gifted to us by the heavens! Hear the plea of the great sage's scion, and guide the children of Ronka safely to their ancestral home!”
113 109 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_079 O, Great Serpent! Do tell me, were my prayers heard?
114 110 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_BOUSHITSUCHINOKO_000_080 Scree-eee!
115 111 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_CHAQURLQHOTL_000_081 Why, I've never heard an in-<Emphasis>tank</Emphasis>-ation so inspiring! Your powers truly are something else, Master Quinfort!
116 112 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_082 Oho! You are wise beyond your years, my young Qitari friend. My knowledge is vast, my powers indeed prodigious, and it is more than an honor to wield them in service of your esteemed people!
117 113 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_083 Though he's prone to bouts of madness from time to time, Quinfort <Emphasis>is</Emphasis> an accomplished priest. The talisman should serve you well.
118 114 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_084 Splendid. Our excavation effort has already been delayed for far longer than we can afford.
119 115 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_085 Well, Chaqurl? This is the moment of truth. There is no telling what dangers lurk beneath us. Are you quite certain you wish to accompany me to the tunnels below?
120 116 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_CHAQURLQHOTL_000_086 But of course, Father! Why else would I have come to this place with you? Together, we will unearth the secrets of our <Emphasis>far</Emphasis>-forethers, and reclaim our history!
121 117 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_087 Very well. It is clear you do not take the task lightly. Perhaps you are coming of age after all. And with that, I believe it's time we started digging.
122 118 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_CHAQURLQHOTL_000_088 Let the ex-<Emphasis>vacation</Emphasis> begin!
123 119 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_SYSTEM_001_031 Some time later...
124 120 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_SYSTEM_001_032 Qitarl Natl and Chaqurl Qhotl have safely returned from their preliminary investigation of the tunnels.
125 121 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_091 Yet <Emphasis>more</Emphasis> manifestations of the great serpent! Whatever have we done to deserve such a blessing!?
126 122 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_092 Well, Chaqurl? Were you able to find any of the tablets you were searching for?
127 123 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_HELMETTSUCHINOKO_000_094 Scree! Scree!
128 124 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_SYSTEM_000_095 The great serpent wriggles about and lets out a clear, clarion call. It would seem that it wishes to aid the Qitari in their effort to reclaim their history.
129 125 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_096 What is this!? Another incarnation of the great serpent made manifest before us!? Whatever could be the meaning of this!? I must know at once!
130 126 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_097 ...Ahem. If you could settle down for just a moment, Master Quinfort, I will explain in detail all I witnessed down below.
131 127 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_CHAQURLQHOTL_000_098 Father and I found a stone! It was big and square and covered with all sorts of writings, just like in the legends!
132 128 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_099 As my boy says, we did indeed find the stelae. Or at least...one piece of them.
133 129 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_100 What remains...?
134 130 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_101 According to Qitari legend, the stelae comprised four perfectly square stones, stacked to form a massive pillar. Which is to say, what we have found is but one part of the larger whole...
135 131 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_102 And if that were not unfortunate enough, even the single stela we found has been badly weathered through the years. In many places, the engravings are all but indecipherable.
136 132 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_103 That is not all we found. Lying beside the shattered stone were several sad piles of bones─no doubt the remains of our once-proud forefathers who carried the stelae down below. I shudder to think of their last moments, torn apart by sin eaters as they hid away our legacy for safekeeping.
137 133 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_CHAQURLQHOTL_000_104 Father and I thought to carry the stone to the surface, but in that moment, something jumped out and stood in our path!
138 134 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_HELMETTSUCHINOKO_000_105 Scree!
139 135 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_106 Are mine eyes to be believed!? The behatted serpent that first accompanied our Qitari friends remains on the surface, which means...we are graced by yet another incarnation of the divine protector!
140 136 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_107 A <Emphasis>third</Emphasis> manifestation of the great serpent? Just how many of them are there, anyway?
141 137 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_100_108 At the very least, this is the only one we encountered on our expedition. And yet, if it traveled here from somewhere to guide us in our efforts, it would not be unreasonable to assume that there are others where this one came from.
142 138 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_108 In truth, it appeared and spoke to us just as we stood before the shattered stone. I cannot help but believe it was conveying to us a message, just as its brethren guided us to these ancient tunnels.
143 139 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_109 Chaqurl and I pondered the matter, and we believe that we understand. The great serpent bids us to unearth what remains of the scattered and weathered stelae, and piece together our people's history anew with our own hands and minds.
144 140 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_110 I see. If the stones truly have been scattered and weathered by time, that's the best you could hope to do.
145 141 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_111 Yet surely you must have been able to make out something from what remained of the stone! What chronicles of eld were writ there!?
146 142 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_112 ...Ahem. What we were able to make of the markings could be described thus: a mighty Ronso wearing a crown─no doubt meant to represent the first emperor of Ronka, stood tall with a blade raised high over his head.
147 143 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_113 Before him, cowered a Qitari─one of our forefathers, no doubt. The carving would seem to depict the momentous occasion that was the first encounter between our people and the empire.
148 144 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_114 And the implications could not be more clear. Doubtless our ancestors, ill-suited for battle, were conquered and subjugated by the might of Ronka, under whose yoke they would find new purpose as the stewards of history.
149 145 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_CHAQURLQHOTL_000_115 A most fascinating interpretation, Father. But if I might be so bold, I saw the drawings quite differently.
150 146 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_CHAQURLQHOTL_000_116 I do not believe the Ronkan emperor would be so cruel as to threaten the poor, weak Qitari. No, I believe that he found us vulnerable and at the mercy of the fearsome beasts of the forest. He slew the beasts by his own hand, and befriended our ancestors, giving us new purpose as his subjects.
151 147 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_117 Your optimism is admirable, my boy, but I fear that such a bright and cheery interpretation of events is unlikely at best. History is full of harsh truths from which we must not avert our eyes.
152 148 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_CHAQURLQHOTL_000_118 But tales are still sung of the first emperor's might and majesty to this day, are they not? I simply cannot fathom that he would be so cruel as to enslave our people!
153 149 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_119 If you ask me, both theories seem reasonable. But if you intend to keep a record of history to pass down to posterity, you're going to have to choose one.
154 150 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_120 Two conflicting theories of the past─one to be etched in stone and sung until the end of time, and the other, destined to be consigned to the dust of the deep, dank caverns below! Truly, this is a turning point in the grand tapestry that is the history of the Qitari...!
155 151 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_VALAN_000_121 Yes, yes. At any rate, I believe we've done all we can here.
156 152 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QUINFORT_000_122 Valan! I say, Valan─have you no interest in witnessing this momentous occasion in history!?
157 153 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_123 I would not think of insisting that my interpretation is the only valid one. And yet, I cannot simply toss it aside in favor of my son's rose-colored view of the past.
158 154 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_CHAQURLQHOTL_000_124 How poso-<Emphasis>lute</Emphasis>-ly, absi-<Emphasis>tive</Emphasis>-ly vexing!
159 155 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_BOUSHITSUCHINOKO_000_125 S-Screeeeeeeee!
160 156 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_CHAQURLQHOTL_000_126 The great serpent...it speaks again!
161 157 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_QITARLNATL_000_127 It does, and this time its message could not be more clear. It believes that <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>, the ally of Ronka, should be the one to weigh the options at hand and decide which version of history shall be inscribed upon the stone.
162 158 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_BOUSHITSUCHINOKO_000_128 Scree!
163 159 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_SYSTEM_000_150 The Qitari father and son have arrived at conflicting interpretations of the events depicted on the stela. At the bidding of the Great Serpent of Ronka, it has fallen to you to determine which version of history will be recorded.
164 160 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_SYSTEM_000_151 You have achieved <UIForeground>F201F4</UIForeground><UIGlow>F201F5</UIGlow>Trusted<UIGlow>01</UIGlow><UIForeground>01</UIForeground> reputation with the Stewards.
165 161 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_SYSTEM_100_151 Borrowing the wisdom of the Night's Blessed, the Qitari have set up warding talismans around Hopl's Stopple. Free from the danger of wandering beasts, the excavation effort should proceed smoothly from here.
166 162 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_SYSTEM_400_151 Furthermore, yet another serpent clad in curious armor has arrived at the Qitari camp.
167 163 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_SYSTEM_200_151 In order to continue the Qitari quests, speak with either Qitarl Natl or Chaqurl Qhotl, and choose the interpretation of history that you find most convincing.
168 164 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_SYSTEM_300_151 Your choice will affect not only the restoration of the stela, but history as it will be told for years to come. Once you make your choice, you will be unable to go back, so choose carefully.
169 165 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_SYSTEM_000_152 New Qitari beast tribe daily quests are now available from Qhoterl Pasol at Hopl's Stopple.
170 166 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_SYSTEM_000_153 Furthermore, you will be able to undertake three additional quests from Qhoterl Pasol as a reputation bonus. This bonus is available until the daily reset time for beast tribe quests.
171 167 TEXT_BANQIQ002_03795_SYSTEM_000_154 These additional quests will become available after accepting all current daily quests from Qhoterl Pasol. Please be advised that you cannot undertake these quests if you have no remaining allowances.
