1	0	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SEQ_00	Mehdjina has an urgent request to make of you.
2	1	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SEQ_01	Hancock, the industrious overseer of the East Aldenard Trading Company's Far Eastern operations, has proposed a partnership with Tataru Taru's Boutique. As a condition, however, he has requested that you attend the negotiations in Kugane. Though his motivations are unclear─and probably suspect─you can only hope that this impromptu journey affords you the opportunity to procure another suitable treasure for the restoration of Tataru's necklace.
3	2	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SEQ_02	In Kugane, Hancock reveals to you and Tataru his struggles with a recent business endeavor: a draper shop selling imported Ul'dahn finery, which has failed to appeal to the local populace. In a bid to salvage the operation, he seeks to feature the Far Eastern-styled wares of Tataru's boutique. A reasonable strategy, but one that did not require your involvement─which Hancock readily admits. Indeed, it seems he only invited you at the behest of another party, who has requested that you meet with them at Sakazuki in the Ruby Sea.
4	3	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SEQ_03	Soroban and the Four Lords are waiting to receive you in Sakazuki, having sought your aid regarding a disturbing discovery. A merchant in Kugane is calling himself the descendant of Tenzen, and the auspices suspect he is using the name of their former companion to swindle unsuspecting folk. Though Suzaku and Seiryu would like nothing more than to slaughter the pretender for his misdeeds, Genbu believes you should first take his measure for yourselves, and to that end proposes that you all travel to Kugane. The auspices assure you that they can keep their identities hidden, but precisely how remains to be seen...
5	4	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SEQ_04	It transpires that the auspices' foolproof disguises were somewhat conspicuous costumes they acquired in their travels. For the time being, they appear to prove sufficient, allowing you to search for Tenzen's “descendant” on Kogane Dori. It is there you find your quarry, wearing armor identical to that of Tenzen's, declaring his storied lineage to a crowd of onlookers. He proceeds to summon the “Four Lords” to further bolster his claims─three mummers and a cat─as the auspices look on with a mixture of disbelief and disgust. As he uses Tenzen's name to sell fake charms to the gathered people, it becomes plain that his scheme is to profit off Tenzen's good name, and that an intervention is warranted.
6	5	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SEQ_05	To expose the man as a fraud, it is decided that you will present yourself as Tenzen's descendant, and the genuine Four Lords will reveal themselves when the time is right. Soroban and Byakko depart for Reisen Temple to prepare for any contingencies, leaving you with Suzaku and Seiryu to locate the impostor, who is still somewhere in Kugane.
7	6	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SEQ_06	Paying no heed to the bewildered looks of nearby Hingans, you lead the pair of strangely dressed auspices through the streets of the city in search of your quarry. ※You must be accompanied by Suzaku and Seiryu to complete this task. Speak with either of them again should you become separated.
8	7	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SEQ_07	You find and question a superstitious woman who purchased one of the impostor's good-luck charms, hoping she may recall which way he went. She indicates he departed in the direction of Tasogare Bridge, and so you and your conspicuous comrades journey there next. ※You must be accompanied by Suzaku and Seiryu to complete this task. Speak with either of them again should you become separated.
9	8	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SEQ_08	Seeing no sign of your quarry at Tasogare Bridge, you speak instead with an exasperated man who bore witness to the spectacle. Alas, he has no useful information to share, and so you prepare to search elsewhere─but in that moment of resignation, the incorrigible Gyodo waddles onto the scene. He tells you of the swindler's true identity─a seamster named Isshu─and of his dealings with Kageyama, the notorious soy sauce baron. Though Isshu is clearly guilty of deceiving others, Gyodo was surprised that the seamster embraced a life of crime, given his otherwise upstanding reputation. Nevertheless, the Namazu directs you to the Isle of Bekko, where the conspirators will soon be meeting in secret.
10	9	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SEQ_09	Hiding in the shadows, you and the two auspices eavesdrop on Isshu and Kageyama's conversation, and learn that Isshu, having lost his job, has been masquerading as Tenzen's descendant at the baron's behest. Realizing that the seamster was but a pawn in Kageyama's scheme, you confront the mastermind and demand he cease his villainy. Naturally, he refuses, and so aided by Soroban and Byakko's timely arrival, you and the Four Lords put the fear of the kami into his very soul. As you hold the Phoenix Blade aloft, the auspices reveal their true forms, and a thoroughly cowed Kageyama is convinced that you are Tenzen's rightful heir. He flees in terror, crying out for mercy and vowing never again to use Tenzen's name for ill.
11	10	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SEQ_10	A contrite Isshu intends to make amends by turning himself into the Sekiseigumi in the knowledge that he will surely be imprisoned for his crimes. Hancock, however, has other ideas; upon arriving with Tataru, he explains that he has already convinced the authorities that Isshu was as much a victim as his customers, thus ensuring he will suffer no punishment. Furthermore, he wishes to hire the seamster, as he is still in need of a replacement for the draper shop. With matters resolved, you are free to go your separate ways─but not before Tataru chides the Four Lords for not involving her in your adventure. And so you bid the auspices farewell...though you have no doubt you have not seen the last of them.
12	11	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SEQ_11	At the Ruby Bazaar, Isshu presents you with a parcel containing fine garments as an expression of his gratitude. Hancock coyly mentions a “little something” he included as well─no doubt the treasure you sought to procure for Tataru's necklace. Noting this exchange, Tataru questions the smirking merchant, who effortlessly deflects her suspicions with the truth: it is payment for helping him to forge a relationship with the auspices, to whom he hopes to sell anything and everything he can. Satisfied and annoyed in equal measure, she proceeds to tell you that the East Aldenard Trading Company and Tataru Taru's Boutique have agreed to form a partnership. Eager to get to work immediately, Tataru asks that you return to Old Sharlayan to inform Mehdjina of their joint venture. And indeed you will deliver the news─along with Hancock's token of his appreciation.
13	12	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SEQ_12	Though pleased by the boutique's new partnership, Mehdjina is more delighted to see what sort of item Hancock picked out for Tataru's necklace. While the stylish ensemble Isshu wove is striking, it is no match for the otherworldly beauty of the black pearls, exceedingly rare gemstones harvested from blacklip oysters in the Ruby Sea. Their darker shade should serve as a contrast to the brilliant sapphire centerpiece, and thereby make it stand out even more. The gift is yet more evidence of Hancock's impressive wealth and resourcefulness, and a reminder that despite any personal misgivings, he is a valuable ally worth retaining. Mehdjina thanks you for your hard work, and bids you rest until your services are needed once more─which may well be sooner than you think.

52	51	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_MEHDJINA_000_004	Ah, Player! You couldn't have come at a better time. Do you have a moment to talk?
53	52	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_MEHDJINA_000_005	My thanks. You see, a foreign merchant approached the boutique with a proposal not long ago.
54	53	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_MEHDJINA_000_006	Hancock, of the East Aldenard Trading Company. Perhaps you've heard of him?
55	54	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_MEHDJINA_000_007	Ah, so you have a history! No wonder Mistress Tataru declared him unscrupulous and deserving of infinite caution.
56	55	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_MEHDJINA_000_008	Though there is risk in dealing with a man of such flexible principles, his knowledge of the Hingan markets would do much to bolster our efforts to make inroads in the Far East.
57	56	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_MEHDJINA_000_009	That is why, despite her misgivings, Mistress Tataru seeks to negotiate a partnership. But for some reason or another, he has requested you be present at their meeting in Kugane.
58	57	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_MEHDJINA_000_010	I realize business negotiations are not your forte, but we would be most grateful if you'd indulge his request.
59	58	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_MEHDJINA_000_011	Of course, there is also the matter of our secret mission...

61	60	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_MEHDJINA_000_013	Once it has been fully restored, this gorgeous sapphire will serve as the centerpiece of Mistress Tataru's necklace. I hope that one day she may look upon it as a memento of not only her mother, but of her many dear friends and allies.
62	61	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_MEHDJINA_000_014	Perhaps during your visit to Kugane, fortune shall favor us with the discovery of an additional treasure to grace her keepsake.
63	62	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_MEHDJINA_000_015	In any case, I believe that covers everything.
64	63	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_MEHDJINA_000_016	Mistress Tataru shall meet you at the Ruby Bazaar in Kugane. I wish you a safe journey.
65	64	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_MEHDJINA_000_050	Do try not to delay your rendezvous with Mistress Tataru. I fear for her spirits should she be forced to keep the company of Master Hancock much longer.
66	65	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_TATARU_000_060	Player, I'm so glad you could make it!
67	66	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_061	I am equally thrilled by your arrival, though I expect I must apologize for the sudden invitation.
68	67	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_TATARU_000_062	Yes, you should. But more importantly, I'd like to know what the scheme is and how you intend to involve us.
69	68	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_063	Oh my, so quick to assume the worst!
70	69	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_064	While I would love nothing more than lay bare all my dirty little secrets, 'twould be prudent to discuss my proposal first.
71	70	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_065	Loath though I am to admit it, a draper shop but recently launched by the company has not been well received by the locals.
72	71	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_066	Our intention was to promote the sale of imported apparel woven by the Ul'dahn Weavers' Guild. Alas, it seems Western fashion holds little appeal for the citizens of Kugane.
73	72	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_067	So we rethought our strategy─we would produce Hingan couture, but with world-renowned Ul'dahn silks. Kimono, as they are the favored choice of wear in the Far East.
74	73	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_068	Or rather, that *was* our plan, until our seamster fell ill.
75	74	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_069	It was as I faced the unpleasant decision of abandoning this venture entirely that I chanced to hear of Tataru's boutique─and the assorted Far Eastern-styled equipment they had on offer.
76	75	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_TATARU_000_070	You are referring to our samurai and ninja-inspired sets of armor, yes?
77	76	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_071	Indeed. By putting your exemplary goods on display, the East Aldenard Trading Company would demonstrate that we, a Western trader, are capable of making garments suited to the needs of our local patrons.
78	77	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_072	Correct me if I'm wrong, but I have been informed that you wish to establish a foothold in Hingashi and East Othard.
79	78	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_073	What better way to make your Kugane debut than to have us showcase your quality wares?
80	79	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_TATARU_000_074	...It's not without its appeal, I admit. The perfect venue to gauge interest in our goods.
81	80	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_075	Isn't it just? If I may take your grudging concession as a sign of interest, perhaps we can discuss the finer points of my proposed partnership.
82	81	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_TATARU_000_076	Oh, we'll be discussing it at length. But I've yet to see how any of this would require Player's involvement.
83	82	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_077	Indeed, I was just about to get to that part...
84	83	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_078	Not long ago, I crossed paths with a group of certain someones who were eager to call on Player again.
85	84	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_079	I found myself quite taken with them, charming as they were, that I felt compelled to facilitate this reunion. And of course, one can never collect too many favors.
86	85	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_080	Alas, I know that you are predisposed to question the motives behind any invitation from the East Aldenard Trading Company─and with good cause, I concede. So I instead invited you here under the guise of assisting Tataru with a boutique-related affair.
87	86	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_081	I hope you will forgive the deception. Rest assured that you shall be rewarded for your aid in this matter with your choice of recompense.
88	87	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_082	Just before your arrival, I took the liberty of informing my new acquaintances that you would soon be making landfall on these shores. They ask that you meet them at Sakazuki in the Ruby Sea, as soon as you are able.
89	88	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_083	I believe it is a matter of some urgency, so if you could travel there forthwith...
90	89	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_084	Excellent. I leave them in your capable hands.
91	90	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_TATARU_000_085	Don't worry─I'm no stranger to Hancock's tricks. I'll make sure not to agree to anything until we've settled every last detail. Just do what you need to do, and return when you can.
92	91	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_100	If you are looking for Tataru, she stepped away but moments ago. Fret not─I'm sure she will have returned by the time you've attended to the matter we discussed.
93	92	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SOROBAN_000_110	Apologies, Player. I pray you have not been waiting long.
94	93	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SOROBAN_000_111	You look surprised. Did Hancock not tell you who requested your aid? Ah, but never mind that. I am simply glad that you are here.

261	260	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_KAGEYAMA_000_472	Wh-What was that...?
262	261	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_KAGEYAMA_000_473	Not only do you possess the Phoenix Blade, but the Four Lords themselves stand at your side. Tell me...are *you* Tenzen's descendant?

264	263	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_ISSHU_000_490	I do not blame Master Kageyama for fleeing in terror. Yet, as odd as it sounds, I did not feel as though you meant me harm...
265	264	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SUZAKU_000_500	You looked every bit as dignified as Tenzen did in his day. The Phoenix Blade suits you.
266	265	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SEIRYU_000_505	A mere illusion and the man loses his head. Some “baron” he is.
267	266	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SOROBAN_000_510	It is thanks to Furi that we made it here in time. And now we can rest easy in the knowledge that Kageyama's scheme has been ended.
268	267	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_BYAKKO_000_520	At Tenzen's behest, I once played the role of a ferocious tiger to frighten the peoples of a village and drive them to flee before they were buried in a landslide.
269	268	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_BYAKKO_000_521	He took part in the deception as well─but to be honest, your acting put his to shame. Have you considered auditioning at the Mujikoza theater?
270	269	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_ISSHU_000_522	H-Honored lords and lady, and descendant of Tenzen, I...I know not how to make amends for my sins. Though actions speak louder than words, I wish to say that I am truly sorry.
271	270	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_BYAKKO_000_523	Man or beast, we all make mistakes.
272	271	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SOROBAN_000_524	I am told you are a master seamster.
273	272	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_ISSHU_000_525	I might not go so far as to say “master,” but with my skill I managed to put food on the table.
274	273	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SOROBAN_000_526	Then perhaps I shall have a word with an old friend...
275	274	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_BYAKKO_000_527	That can wait, Soroban. We must escort this young man to a safer location.
276	275	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_BYAKKO_000_550	This is far enough. It is past time we returned home.
277	276	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SEIRYU_000_551	We are once more in your debt.
278	277	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SUZAKU_000_552	It is because of you that this affair could be concluded before Tenzen's reputation suffered irreparable harm. Thank you, Player.
279	278	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_BYAKKO_000_553	Now that you are no longer bound to Kageyama, what will you do?
280	279	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_ISSHU_000_554	Well... I know I must take responsibility for my actions. I will confess my crimes to the Sekiseigumi.
281	280	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_ISSHU_000_555	After I am released from my imprisonment...I shall take up an honest trade once more, and not rest until I have repaid each and every victim of my deception.
282	281	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SOROBAN_000_556	Ah yes, I had been meaning to tell you... But I will let Hancock explain when he arrives shortly.
283	282	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_557	Dreadfully sorry to have kept you all waiting.
284	283	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SOROBAN_000_558	Ah, speak of the devil!
285	284	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SOROBAN_000_559	(-Genbu-)And the urchin girl came as well. It has been far too long.

287	286	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_561	You are Isshu, the seamster Soroban spoke of, yes?
288	287	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_562	If it is gainful employment you seek, the East Aldenard Trading Company would be thrilled to hire one of your expertise to work at our draper shop.
289	288	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_563	The seamster in our service fell ill, and we've been looking for a replacement.
290	289	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_ISSHU_000_564	I-I have no words! I am grateful, truly... But I cannot accept, for once I confess my crimes to the Sekiseigumi, they will surely imprison me for a time.
291	290	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_565	Ah, yes, the Sekiseigumi. I had a chat with them not long ago. They are aware that the scheme was contrived by Kageyama, and that you too are one of his victims. You will be required to assist them in their investigation, of course, but you needn't steel yourself for even a brief incarceration.
292	291	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SEIRYU_000_566	Hancock. You have our thanks for calling Player to our aid.
293	292	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_567	Oh no, not at all. I am pleased to have been of service.
294	293	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_568	I have not forgotten our arrangement, Player. Have you decided upon a reward?
295	294	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_100_568	Oh, how that warms the heart! A material to help restore the keepsake of a dear friend...
296	295	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_200_568	I have just the thing. I won't spoil the surprise now, but do look forward to it.
297	296	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_TATARU_000_569	I suppose we had better return to the city. But before that...
298	297	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_TATARU_000_570	You could've called upon me too, you know! It's not like I wasn't part of the whole “saving the Ruby Sea from becoming consumed by roaring flames” endeavor or anything!
299	298	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SOROBAN_000_571	(-Genbu-)Ohohoho, forgive us, urchin gir─ahem. Tataru. We assumed you were busy. That, and you did struggle mightily to help Player restrain Soroban that one time, so there was some concern that you might prove a liability should it come to blows. Nevertheless, we will take your words to heart.
300	299	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_BYAKKO_000_572	Perhaps we should assume our guises and walk among men more often. It was a refreshing change of pace, on the whole.
301	300	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SEIRYU_000_573	I would not be against it. We were in a bit of a rush on this occasion, but with a longer visit, we might better appreciate men's curious ways.
302	301	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SUZAKU_000_574	I have no doubt we shall meet again. I but pray that the time comes sooner than later.

304	303	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_Q2_000_000	What will you say?
305	304	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_A2_000_001	Until that day.
306	305	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_A2_000_002	I'll be sure to stop by the temple later.
307	306	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SEIRYU_000_577	I will consider that a promise.
308	307	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SUZAKU_000_578	You know you are always welcome. The others would be thrilled to see you and Tataru both.

311	310	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SOROBAN_000_582	(-Genbu-)You did well to apprise Hancock of Isshu's predicament. He may now make amends by putting his talents to good use, and continue to provide for his family.

314	313	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_SOROBAN_000_585	If that is how you all feel, then I have little choice but to do my best.
315	314	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_ISSHU_000_600	I can still hardly believe the Sekiseigumi only wished to question me... Master Hancock must have a way with words. Speaking of which, I believe he and Mistress Tataru will be joining us shortly.
316	315	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_601	Isshu, you will be pleased to know that I've just finished making arrangements for your immediate employment. May our profits soar that you may give your family the life they deserve!

319	318	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_ISSHU_000_604	It is not much, but I have prepared a gift for you as an expression of my gratitude. A set of garments that I made before I was embroiled in Master Kageyama's schemes. The lords and ladies of Kugane once held my work in high regard, and I hope you will as well.
320	319	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_605	You will also find a little something from me included within. A well-deserved reward.

322	321	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_607	Payment for introducing the East Aldenard Trading Company to prospective new clients, what else?
323	322	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_TATARU_000_608	I can't say I'm surprised you would try to peddle goods to the Four Lords themselves, but still─have you no shame?
324	323	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_TATARU_000_609	Regardless, now's as good a time as any to inform Player of the result of our deliberations.
325	324	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_TATARU_000_610	Said result being, we have agreed to an official partnership with the East Aldenard Trading Company. One which I will exploit for all it's worth to make Tataru Taru's Boutique a household name in Kugane!
326	325	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_HANCOCK_000_611	Ahaha! For my part, I pray this is the start of a *mutually* beneficial partnership.

334	333	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_MEHDJINA_000_655	By the Sisters...black pearls! Do you have any idea how rare these are? They can only be harvested from blacklip oysters in the Ruby Sea!
335	334	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_MEHDJINA_000_656	I cannot be certain until they have been incorporated into the necklace, but I believe the darker shade will serve as a contrast to the brilliant sapphire centerpiece, and make it stand out even more.
336	335	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_MEHDJINA_000_657	To part with such precious treasures─Master Hancock is either very wealthy or very well-connected. Or both. We would do well to maintain a good relationship with the East Aldenard Trading Company.
337	336	TEXT_AKTKSA301_04662_MEHDJINA_000_658	But that is the boutique's concern. After all you have done for us, I am sure you want nothing more than a good rest. Thank you again for your continued assistance!
