40TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_SEQ_00Hasdahd is deep in thought.
51TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_SEQ_01Hasdahd mulls over the elder's words, desperate to do more for his village now that he is home. He hopes to come up with an answer by catching up with those he hasn't seen since fire rained from the skies.
62TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_SEQ_02Your companions are all too happy to have you accompany them on their tour of the village. As the hero who saved Palaka's Stand during the Final Days, you will no doubt have ample opportunity to ask questions of the villagers. Mehdjina adds that there are “others” with whom she wishes to speak as well, and as understanding passes between them, you glimpse a raw pain in Hasdahd's eyes. ※You must be accompanied by Hasdahd and Mehdjina to complete this task. Speak with either one of them should you become separated.
73TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_SEQ_03Your tour of the village draws to a close, and Mehdjina and Hasdahd exchange a glance. It is time to make another journey, they tell you─one into the jungle and to the temple of Purusa. ※You must be accompanied by Hasdahd and Mehdjina to complete this task. Speak with either one of them should you become separated.
84TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_SEQ_04The jungle is never silent, but a stillness descends as Mehdjina and Hasdahd offer prayers to their parents who perished during the Final Days. You observe from a distance, your presence alone ensuring no beasts approach the pair. Having fulfilled this personal obligation, Mehdjina and Hasdahd are now ready to address the village's situation, and your words of guidance are all they need to piece together an idea to secure the future prosperity of both Palaka's Stand <Emphasis>and</Emphasis> Tataru Taru's Boutique.
95TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_SEQ_05Elder Yeruvvet is impressed with Mehdjina and Hasdahd's idea to sell handcrafted goods through the boutique. He wishes the pair well on their journey back to Sharlayan, and the two leave with hearts far lighter than when they arrived.
106TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_SEQ_06You return to happy tidings: Tataru's necklace has been successfully restored by the selfsame lapidary to whom Tataru was once apprenticed. The finished piece is even more stunning than anyone anticipated─and for the final touch, Varsarudh insists that you engrave the symbol of Nald'thal into the backing of the sapphire. After you oblige her to the best of your ability, the four of you scurry off to Scholar's Harbor to await Tataru's imminent return. After briefing Tataru on events in Palaka's Stand, Mehdjina pitches her idea for Hannish handicrafts, which the entrepreneur takes to straightaway. The subsequent confirmation that her employees intend to remain with the boutique for the foreseeable future gives Tataru cause to relax. However, the air still tingles with anticipation... Tataru jovially accepts the surprise gift handed to her─and then, as her gaze falls upon the tear-shaped sapphire, her eyes grow wide in recognition. As she listens to the tale of the necklace's restoration, the weight of what she now holds becomes clear: a fragment of what she thought lost framed by all she has gained. A celebration of the connections she has forged with people throughout the world, and the beauty they have brought into countless lives.
117TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_SEQ_07Tataru's bespoke chocobo barding has reassuring heft and will doubtless fit your constant companion like a glove. As you part ways with Tataru Taru's Boutique, you are sure it will continue to enjoy remarkable success for its peerless wares. As for what other grand endeavors the ambitious young woman may embark on in the future─only time will tell.

5248TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_001How else can the village help to strengthen our people's connection to their faith...?
5349TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_YERUVVET_000_005Palaka's Stand is charged with the preservation of Thavnair's divine teachings. Our methods to accomplish this must naturally change with the times.
5450TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_010How foolish I was to think the answer would be so simple. I would come home, roll up my sleeves, and help restore our village to the way it was. I would find fulfillment...
5551TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_011Alas, not all that was lost can be reclaimed. Our people face a new struggle...but perhaps by discovering new ways for the village to fulfill its duty, we might yet help our community.
5652TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_012Exactly! Like the elder said, surely our experiences in Sharlayan have given us a unique perspective.
5753TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_013Not to mention <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>'s extensive knowledge of the world. I'm sure that, between the three of us, we can come up with a brilliant plan to support Palaka's Stand.
5854TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_014Yes... Yes, you are right. And I'm sure that hearing how everyone fares will give us insights as well.
5955TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_020If you think of any ideas, we would be glad to hear them!
6056TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_100Not a soul here will ever forget the hero of Palaka's Stand. I am sure everyone will be just as eager to speak with you as us!
6157TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_101There are also...<Emphasis>others</Emphasis> with whom I'd like to speak. Once we've finished here.
6258TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_102...Of course. We mustn't forget to pay our respects.

6763TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_SYSTEM_000_105You can leave your quest companions behind by entering a different area, or by speaking with them and selecting the option to part ways.
6864TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_SYSTEM_000_106If you wish to have your companions join you again, return and speak with them at the original location.
6965TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_SYSTEM_000_107What will you do?
7066TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_SYSTEM_000_108Small talk.

7268TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_SYSTEM_000_110Nothing.
7369TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_111Aside from the money we and others working elsewhere send back, the village is largely reliant upon the generosity of the faithful. Our avenues of income are quite limited.
7470TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_112Unthinkable in a place like Sharlayan, perhaps, but it's how we've always done things. Even so, I wonder if such an arrangement is still viable in this day and age...
7571TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_113It would do little good to return home only to become a burden...
7672TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_114That's why I'm determined to come up with an idea that will help our village!
7773TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_SYSTEM_000_115Are you sure you wish to part ways with Hasdahd and Mehdjina?
7874TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_116Do you have business elsewhere? Don't worry. Mehdjina and I can busy ourselves in your absence. Just let us know when you're ready to proceed.
7975TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_117You need to leave? That's quite all right─come and find us once you've returned.
8076TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_118No more pressing obligations? Then let us continue.
8177TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_119Welcome back. Shall we go?
8278TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_VIRABAN_000_200Hello, traveler. What business have you with an old maid like me?
8379TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_UTPALA_000_201May I help you with something?
8480TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_QERYDE_000_202Did you just deliver equipment to the elder? Might we chat?
8581TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_SYSTEM_000_203You must be accompanied by Hasdahd and Mehdjina and have them by your side in order to proceed with quest objectives.
8682TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_SYSTEM_000_204Your companions have yet to arrive. Be sure they are at your side before attempting to continue.
8783TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_VIRABAN_000_205If it isn't Hasdahd and Mehdjina─accompanied by our savior, no less! Welcome home, welcome home.
8884TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_VIRABAN_000_206True, we're a bit shorthanded these days, but we manage nevertheless.
8985TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_VIRABAN_000_207While there's a happiness in being reunited with our young ones, we're just as happy knowing that you are walking your own path, no matter where it leads.
9086TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_VIRABAN_000_208I remember Hasdahd couldn't wait to become a steward when he was little, but as far as I'm concerned, sending aid from afar is just as praiseworthy as tending to the temples here. Times are changing, and who is to say that this cannot be another form of stewardship?
9187TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_209A steward who supports the village from afar? I never even considered the possibility...
9288TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_VIRABAN_000_210I believe there are myriad ways a steward can express their devotion. Some might argue they must attend the temples directly, but not I.
9389TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_UTPALA_000_211Oh, hello there! Staying for a while or just passing through?
9490TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_UTPALA_000_212Our recovery has been slow but steady─though I am concerned for those who still struggle with wounds our healers cannot cure.
9591TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_UTPALA_000_213The Final Days may have passed, but grief and trauma are not so easily overcome. Or ever, for those who must accept them as constant companions.
9692TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_UTPALA_000_214Ours is a tightly knit community, but I worry for those in the capital and abroad. I imagine it is difficult for them to honor the old teachings as they labor far from home.
9793TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_215So many of us fled during those dark times. If only we could bring the comforts of community to all Hannish...
9894TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_UTPALA_000_216I hope we can discover better ways to help those who need it most.
9995TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_QERYDE_000_217Excuse me─I couldn't help but notice that beautiful equipment you delivered to the elder. As a weaver who crafts armor for our stewards, I would love to hear more about its origins...
10096TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_QERYDE_000_218Created in cooperation with guilds from across the world!? Oh, I <Emphasis>must</Emphasis> have a closer look!
10197TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_QERYDE_000_219The Final Days exposed the limitations of my skills─traditional Thavnairian techniques alone did not suffice. I am eager to hone my craft by studying the work of foreign artisans.
10298TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_QERYDE_000_220...Although in my weaker moments, I often wonder if <Emphasis>purchasing</Emphasis> armor for our stewards would be the superior solution. Alas, that would require a surplus of coin, as well as available product.
10399TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_221As a village sustained by donations and remittances, we would be hard-pressed to afford anything so expensive, even if such suppliers <Emphasis>were</Emphasis> to venture this deep into the jungle...
104100TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_QERYDE_000_222I will ask the elder to show me those samples later. Thank you for bringing them this far!
105101TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_223Seeing everyone so eager to help one another makes me more determined than ever to contribute.
106102TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_100_223But before anything else─shall we go?
107103TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_224Let's. It'll be...good to visit.
108104TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_225To Purusa, then.
109105TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_226Could we ask you to accompany us? The temple roads are perilous, and your presence would be a great comfort.

111107TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_251When I was little, we used to run through these wilds, playing steward and imagining fierce battles with hideous beasts. Got the scolding of a lifetime when our parents found out.
112108TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_252But when it really happened─when the sky turned red and the jungles spewed forth unspeakable horrors...I could do nothing but cower.
113109TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_253Perhaps that's why I feel so guilty for not returning. For not doing more, even if it may never be enough. But this time, <Emphasis>this</Emphasis> time, I will rise to the occasion!
114110TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_254I never used to give much thought to those who walked these roads before me.
115111TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_255Countless pilgrims who risked their lives for faith. Aware of the dangers ahead, they pressed on. So strong was their devotion, so sacred the tradition.

120116TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_260Here, at Purusa, we may commune with the spirits of the departed. Neither Mehdjina's nor my parents survived the Final Days.
121117TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_261I told them about how you saved us and that we're doing well. I know they will rest easier for it.
122118TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_262May the next time we visit be to deliver glad tidings from Palaka's Stand.
123119TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_263Though I was relieved to find the village in a better state than I had feared, it seems there are still issues we might help address. Finding a steady source of income, for instance, so the stewards can be properly outfitted without overwhelming our weaver.
124120TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_264I was also troubled to hear about those who continue to struggle without the support of a local community. There must be some way to provide respite.
125121TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_265Yes, indeed. The question is what...
126122TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_266Do you have any thoughts?
127123TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_Q2_000_000What will you say?
128124TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_A2_000_001Ask yourself: what would Tataru do?

131127TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_268Well, Mistress Tataru has always put great store by collaboration and partnerships...
132128TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_269...So what if Palaka's Stand were to enter into a partnership? Perhaps with the boutique itself!
133129TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_270Indeed. Mistress Tataru developed the boutique through close partnerships, after all─and look how far it's come!
134130TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_271Wait, that's it! If Palaka's Stand were to enter into a partnership with the boutique, that might lead to great opportunities!
135131TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_272Think outside the village you mean? I suppose that would mean foreign involvement of some kind...
136132TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_273Oh! What about a partnership between Palaka's Stand and Sharlayan? Or, more specifically, the boutique?
137133TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_274I think you're onto something! If the boutique sold wares the village produced, for instance, our people would have a reliable revenue stream.
138134TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_275But what can Palaka's Stand offer? And to whom?
139135TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_276How about amulets and talismans? Or images of the deities!
140136TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_277Something simple─created with love for our homeland and our faith. So no one forgets or feels forgotten.
141137TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_278I like that. Our temples were created in remembrance of our ancestors and divine teachings─but reminders needn't <Emphasis>only</Emphasis> take the form of great works.
142138TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_279A small keepsake may be just what our scattered brethren need to reassure themselves that they are still members of the community.
143139TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_281This could be the answer we were looking for! I can't wait to tell Mistress Tataru!

146142TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_284If our proposal is approved, Mistress Tataru will no doubt need assistance in Sharlayan. I am ready and willing to provide it, but what of you, Hasdahd? What will you do?
147143TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_285...I too will return to the boutique. One day I will come home to stay, but for now, I wish to do all in my power to help our village thrive.
148144TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_286I am relieved to hear you say so. Let us go and consult with the elder about our plan.
149145TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_290If Elder Yeruvvet gives us his blessing, all that's left is to present our proposal to Mistress Tataru!
150146TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_295I was lost in a fog, unable to find the path forward, but Mehdjina's brilliant idea has given me the clarity I needed. I know now what I must do for myself and for my people.
151147TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_YERUVVET_000_300I hear you were kind enough to escort these children to Purusa. Again, you have my gratitude.
152148TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_YERUVVET_000_301Are your feelings any clearer for it?
153149TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_302I think so. Mehdjina and I talked it over, and we believe we have struck upon a new way the village might support our people...
154150TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_YERUVVET_000_303Tangible mementos of our faith? An interesting proposition.
155151TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_YERUVVET_000_304Many here would be glad to create such reminders. I expect those unable to perform strenuous labor would be especially grateful for an opportunity to contribute to the prosperity of our village. To say nothing of the options these additional funds would provide.
156152TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_YERUVVET_100_304But most importantly, we would be able to help those who have chosen to live apart from us feel that much more connected to their community and their faith. I am proud of you both for discovering such an innovative way to do so.
157153TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_305It would likely mean Hasdahd and I will stay in Sharlayan for the foreseeable future...
158154TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_YERUVVET_000_306Then take with you the knowledge that no matter where your journey takes you, our hearts will always be as one. May the Sisters guide you.
159155TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_307We'll come back again. I promise.
160156TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_100_307In the meantime, we shall see our plan to fruition. I will send word once we've determined the particulars!
161157TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_308Right, then. Sharlayan awaits.
162158TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_YERUVVET_000_310To think those two were once mired in all-consuming sorrow. I can hardly recognize them now.
163159TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_YERUVVET_000_315I'm sure I have you and their Sharlayan benefactor to thank for their recovery. Please extend my warmest regards to this Mistress Tataru when next you meet.
164160TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_320Even Varsarudh likes our idea! Here's hoping Mistress Tataru does as well...

166162TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_VARSARUDH_000_351He had nothing but fond memories of Mistress Tataru and was eager to pour his everything into the restoration. The result is magnificent.
167163TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_VARSARUDH_000_352The original sapphire, accented with black pearl from the Ruby Sea and rose shell of Werlyt, united by a length of Mhachi leather. A singular necklace symbolizing Mistress Tataru's past and present.
168164TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_100_352By the Sisters, what a remarkable gift!
169165TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_VARSARUDH_000_353However, it wants for a finishing touch.
170166TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_VARSARUDH_000_354Preferably by your hand, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>─and after hearing about your visit to Palaka's Stand, I know just the thing.
171167TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_VARSARUDH_000_355In short, we will be proposing a new line of products to help our people feel closer to their roots, yes?
172168TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_VARSARUDH_000_356So, in honor of Mistress Tataru's roots, I would have you inscribe the symbol of Nald'thal upon the back of the pendant.
173169TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_Q3_000_000What will you say?
174170TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_A3_000_001It would be an honor.
175171TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_A3_000_002I-I'll do my best...
176172TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_SYSTEM_000_358With painstaking effort and unwavering focus, you engrave the symbol of the Traders onto Tataru's necklace. Any who behold it will surely know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that this final flourish was the product of your heroic hand...
177173TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_VARSARUDH_000_359Hmhm! I'm sure she will adore it. Our work is officially done!
178174TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_360I've just received word from Mistress Tataru. She should be arriving in Scholar's Harbor soon. Let's go and meet her there!
179175TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_TATARU_000_400I wasn't expecting a personal escort from the docks! Though I daresay I could grow accustomed to it.
180176TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_TATARU_000_401How was your time in Palaka's Stand? Did you find it worthwhile?
181177TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_TATARU_000_402Hmm... So while they <Emphasis>do</Emphasis> have interest in our equipment, matters of recovery are their greater concern at present?
182178TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_403Recovery, yes...but also <Emphasis>growth</Emphasis>. Which may lead to a lucrative opportunity for the boutique, if you will permit me to suggest another new product!
183179TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_404What if we offered handicrafts designed and produced by the people of Palaka's Stand? Authentic works representative of Hannish culture.
184180TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_405For those of us living abroad, reminders of home would do wonders to ease feelings of estrangement─and for others, such pieces could be appreciated as beautiful works of art!
185181TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_406Our village is up to the task. You will not be disappointed!
186182TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_VARSARUDH_000_407Doubt not their conviction, Mistress Tataru.
187183TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_408
188184TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_TATARU_000_409A product that embodies Thavnair's spiritual beauty, to be shared with the whole world? Why, the boutique should offer nothing less!
189185TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_TATARU_000_410Though we've made wonderful progress with our samples, I believe it's time for a change of pace─and handicrafts born from a heartfelt desire to celebrate one's culture is bound to resonate with others.
190186TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_TATARU_000_411Given her eagerness, I presume Mehdjina intends to stay and help facilitate this new venture, but what about you, Hasdahd? You felt the call to return to Thavnair rather more strongly, as I recall.
191187TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_412Yes, well... After talking with everyone at home, I realized that living apart from them does not mean I must forsake my childhood dreams of service.
192188TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_413I believe I can best serve my people by staying in Sharlayan and continuing to work at the boutique. ...If you'll have me!
193189TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_TATARU_000_414With pleasure, Hasdahd.
194190TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_VARSARUDH_000_415Mistress Tataru. If it would not be untoward, we would like to present you with a small token of our appreciation. For everything you've done for us.
195191TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_TATARU_000_416Not untoward at all! Rest assured that I graciously accept all offerings of praise and adoration─<Emphasis>especially</Emphasis> ones as fine as this.

200196TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_A1_000_002I hope we haven't overstepped our bounds...
201197TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_A1_000_003Look! I put the symbol of Nald'thal on the back!
202198TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_TATARU_000_420It's hers... It's really hers!
203199TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_TATARU_000_421No, no, it's perfect! I-I'm simply surprised, is all!
204200TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_TATARU_000_422Did you now! Haha, what an auspicious necklace it's become!
205201TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_TATARU_000_423Never in my life did I imagine I'd see this jewel again.
206202TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_TATARU_000_424It was part of a family heirloom. When my mother was married, she received it from <Emphasis>her</Emphasis> mother...
207203TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_TATARU_000_425How her eyes sparkled when she spoke of one day giving it to me, I'll never forget...
208204TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_TATARU_000_426...But when Father's business failed, we lost everything. And that was the last I saw of it.
209205TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_VARSARUDH_000_427Though your heirloom did not survive in its entirety, Master Pipin managed to recover the sapphire. From there, we collected parts from clients during sample deliveries and commissioned the necklace you now hold.
210206TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_TATARU_000_428Now that I think of it, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/> often <Emphasis>did</Emphasis> receive mysterious gifts on those visits! So that's what it was about...
211207TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_TATARU_000_429Time after time, I am reminded that a fortune in coin promises only a fraction of what a wealth of friendship provides.
212208TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_TATARU_000_430When my family lost its last gil, I became a lapidary's apprentice─and that's how I met a certain miner named Minfilia.
213209TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_TATARU_000_431We hit it off instantly, chatting every time she brought in gems for appraisal. And then one day she came not with her usual haul, but with an invitation to join the Path of the Twelve. The rest, as they say, is history!
214210TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_TATARU_000_432One serendipitous meeting...that led to so many others. That led to so many incredible adventures...
215211TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_TATARU_000_433That saw a poor little girl reunited with a priceless memento...
216212TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_434...Our teachings say that there is more ugliness than beauty in this world. “To live is to suffer.”
217213TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_HASDAHD_000_435But we never need suffer alone. And what is more beautiful than the bonds we share with others?
218214TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_MEHDJINA_000_436Indeed, it is these connections that give meaning to our lives.
219215TEXT_AKTKSA502_04813_VARSARUDH_000_437Connections for which I too am grateful...and thus compelled to advise that we return to the Agora. The counter remains unmanned, and we mustn't neglect our clients.
