4948TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_000_000Player, good tidings! We have uncovered the true nature of the fish Master Matsya brought back from the shrine on Aloalo!
5049TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_000_001Though having said “we,” I must admit that Pasasun deserves the lion's share of the credit. But he would *never* have been in a position to do so had I not risked life and limb to set these events in motion!
5150TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_000_002Anyway, he unearthed an ancient document which makes mention of the fish, and for this accomplishment we are now better informed.
5251TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_PASASUN_000_003Oh, do my ears deceive me? Praise from the beak of the exalted Kalika? I'm surprised you even remembered my name.
5352TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_000_004I give thanks when it is due! But this is all beside the point. Upon learning of this fish's properties, Master Matsya realized that one other than Mistress Nidhana has greater need of it.
5453TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_000_005Moreover, he desires that you be there for the presentation. And since fate has placed you before us, what better time to hand over the fish than this very moment?
5554TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_000_006I shall inform Master Matsya of your arrival. Await us at Palaka's Stand, Player.
5655TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_000_007As a servant of the Speaker, I am well versed in matters of etiquette. To those who have aided me I afford an appropriate measure of respect─nothing more, nothing less.
5756TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_000_008In any event, we have more pressing affairs. Go to Palaka's Stand and wait for us there, Player!
5857TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_PASASUN_000_009I've grown accustomed to Kalika's barbs. There's an odd charm about them, even. Still, it warms my heart to hear him speak sincere praise.
5958TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_MATSYA_000_015Thank you for meeting us, Player! I apologize for making you wait, but we had good reason...
6059TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_MATSYA_000_016These three were lying in wait for us on the road. Couldn't let bygones be bygones, it seems. Fortunately, the Radiant Host intervened before anyone came to harm.
6160TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_ZOZONE_000_017Oooooow!
6261TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_ZOZONE_000_018I said, “Oooooow!”
6362TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_ZOZONE_000_019Wait...you were the one what fought that massive statue!
6463TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_ZOZONE_000_020We swooped in to snatch the jewel after you took your leave, but then the bleedin' bugger got up and attacked! All 'cause you hadn't finished the job!
6564TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_JJHIMEI_000_021But you sure didn't pull your punches when you trounced our poor minion, did you? Do you know how long Whasbyrm spent with his nose buried in dusty tomes just so he could learn how to control it? So much wasted effort...
6665TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_WHASBYRM_000_022Sorry for all the trouble... There were writings in the ruins that detailed rituals. Incredibly complex magicks unlike anything I'd ever seen...and my curiosity got the better of me.
6766TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_ARMY04790_000_023Keep walking! I don't want to hear another word out of you lot until we reach the capital.
6867TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_000_024Well, whatever punishment is to be meted out, it will be well deserved! The Speaker must have sensed their ill intent and rose to defend the jewel.
6968TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_Q1_000_025What will you say?
7069TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_A1_000_001Do you know anything else about the Speaker?
7170TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_A1_000_002What's so special about that jewel?
7271TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_000_026I am afraid I know little more than you. Though I am sworn to serve, the Speaker does not deign to share with me its secrets.
7372TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_000_027I can tell you only of legends passed down through generations. Of biting frost that turned seas to ice, which drove the Speaker's makers to go forth in search of a haven where light shone bright.
7473TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_000_028Those who came long after found Aloalo, where life had weathered the ancient rime. At the island's heart was the Speaker, its jewel flawless and radiant.
7574TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_000_029'Twas a wellspring of vitality, they believed, and all who settled upon Aloalo came to revere the ancient builders and their enduring legacy.
7675TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_000_030Under the Speaker's auspices, the people of Aloalo lived in peace for thousands of years, until the day flame and ash rose from the water and forced them to flee.
7776TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_MATSYA_000_031Just how old are you, Kalika? You speak of eras so ancient that they are as myth to us.
7877TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_000_032Your guess is as good as mine, Master Matsya! I remember well when the island was bustling and vibrant, its inhabitants dedicated to esoteric equations and other cultural pursuits. Some even attempted to unravel the mysteries of the Speaker and its jewel.
7978TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_000_033I was born in the great shrine, this much I know. When the people found me, I spoke to them in their own tongue─they were beside themselves in disbelief! Thus was I deemed the Speaker's servant.
8079TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_000_034Why can I speak? Well, having given it much thought, I can only surmise that the jewel is the reason. But enough about me, Master Matsya. Tell Player what we learned of the fish you plucked from the shrine's waters.
8180TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_MATSYA_000_035Kalika told me that the fish from the shrine were given to the island's younglings to help them grow hale and hearty. At first, I was unsure if that was merely a custom, or if there was actually something special about them.
8281TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_MATSYA_000_036Pasasun found the answer. He unearthed ancient records detailing the fish's medicinal properties─namely, its ability to bolster the body's defenses against all manner of illness.
8382TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_MATSYA_000_037When I heard this, I knew that as much as I wanted to deliver a gift to Nidhana, there was another in far greater need.
8483TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_MATSYA_000_038I speak of the child we rescued during the Final Days. Vaazti, daughter of Qerasaf and Mehvan.
8584TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_MATSYA_000_039Long had I wanted to gift the child one of my catches, but young stomachs are sensitive. This, however, is exactly what she needs.
8685TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_MATSYA_000_040Without you watching over me, I would never have been able to venture so deep into the island's heart.
8786TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_MATSYA_000_041So allow me to thank you once again for answering our plea, Player!
8887TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_MATSYA_000_042And now I must deliver Vaazti's meal. I've made a dish fit for a child's delicate constitution, and I'd best hurry before it gets cold.
8988TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_000_043Of course, I owe you my thanks as well, but I will save them until after the child has been fed. We shall speak again in Yedlihmad.
9089TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_000_045There you are, Player!
9190TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_000_046You will be pleased to know that Vaazti quite enjoyed Master Matsya's dish. I can think of no better note on which to end the day!
9291TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_100_046Ahem. On behalf of all peoples of Aloalo, past, present, and future, I commend your bravery! The island's fortunes are bright, and Master Matsya is in high spirits!
9392TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_000_047No matter the era or the culture, I believe it is customary to give gifts to those to whom you are indebted. Rest assured I do not intend to shirk this custom!
9493TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_000_048There were more than enough fish left over to prepare another fine meal. And so, with Pasasun to handle the more laborious tasks, together we did just that.
9594TEXT_AKTKVA310_04790_KALIKA_100_048'Tis a local favorite quite similar to a traditional delicacy of Aloalo. May it give you a new appreciation for the island cultures of these fair seas. From our homes to your lips!
