40TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_SEQ_00Nashu Mhakaracca awaits your approach, like a butterfly poised to set off a hurricane.
51TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_SEQ_01In full knowledge of the fact that hijinks of subjective hilarity will ensue, you engage Nashu in conversation, who proceeds to regale you with her theory that Inspector Hildibrand has, in fact, been spirited away to the moon─a lead she attributes to the quote-unquote journalism of <Emphasis>The Thavnairian Truth</Emphasis>. Hoping to follow in the footsteps of Dorian, the editor in chief, as he chases his story into the heavens above, the irrepressible Nashu insists that you accompany her to Garlemald and its not-so-secret lunar portal.
62TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_SEQ_02After arriving in Camp Broken Glass, a shivering Nashu asks for the location of the portal in question. She trudges off in the direction of the Tower of Babil, and once again, in contravention of common sense, you feel compelled to follow.
73TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_SEQ_03In the Enceladeum you come upon an exasperated Delion attempting to convince the gatekeeper to allow him passage. Although you make no particular attempt to vouch for his character, the guard decides that Delion is sufficiently enmeshed in your efforts to find the abducted Hildibrand that special dispensation is warranted. Lucky you. Your party, now a mismatched trio, is free to proceed through the Nethergate...
84TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_SEQ_04While Nashu admires the shiny white and decidedly inedible surface of the moon, Delion spies what he declares a “forward base.” You follow the alien-obsessed editor into the building, only to find him not-quite-speechless at the sight of the watcher and a visiting Loporrit. Although rightfully concerned by Delion's conspiracy-laden outbursts, the Loporrit nevertheless agrees to escort you to Bestways Burrow, where you can continue to gather information on the inspector's possible whereabouts.
95TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_SEQ_05Delion is, for a few blessed moments, stricken dumb by the sight of the burrow's expansive facilities. Alas, he recovers in time to join you and Nashu in questioning the local Loporrits. ※You must be accompanied by Nashu and Delion to complete this task. Speak with either of them again should you become separated.
106TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_SEQ_06You interrogate a languid Loporrit, but learn nothing of value. Perhaps another of his brethren has more information to share. ※You must be accompanied by Nashu and Delion to complete this task. Speak with either of them again should you become separated.
117TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_SEQ_07The Loporrit promoter has seen many an unusual visitor...but none of them appear to have been the inspector. Third bunny's the charm? ※You must be accompanied by Nashu and Delion to complete this task. Speak with either of them again should you become separated.
128TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_SEQ_08Weavingway has no recollection of a gentleman in ragged clothes, but did spot an unidentified object flying in the south of Mare Lamentorum. As the incessant theorizing of Delion fades into background noise, you head outside to follow this most promising lead.
139TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_SEQ_09You catch sight of your shiny quarry and race off in pursuit, only stopping when you find a familiar pair of legs sticking up out of the ground. Then you spot another pair. And another. As if someone had sowed a field of inverted gentlemen. The Hildibrands free themselves, and, following a brief festival of masculinity, the alien vessel returns to reap the Mandervillian harvest─with extreme prejudice. Thankfully, the original Hildibrand is returned to you unharmed shortly thereafter by the craft's pilot─a short, blue, bipedal creature introduced to you as “Master PuPu.” Through the inspector's explanation and the impeccable timing of the Echo, you piece together the extraterrestrial's story, learning that PuPu has come from a distant star in search of his own missing comrade. In words that lean dangerously close to becoming a catchphrase, the impassioned Inspector Hildibrand vows to solve this latest case.
1410TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_SEQ_10Your ability to communicate with PuPu has earned you the admiration of Hildibrand...and the unnerving attentions of Delion. If naught else, the new case in which you find yourself embroiled promises to be equal parts eventful and ludicrous indeed.

5349TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_001Before we get into the details, though, I should give you back your soul container.
5450TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_002I gave it a good scrub first, of course. Being the gentleman that he is, I'm sure the inspector wouldn't want to leave any lingering spiritual odors.
5551TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_003There. Now you can listen to my findings without having distracting thoughts like, “When is Nashu going to give me back my soul container?”
5652TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_004Now, as for the lead I mentioned─I was thumbing through a periodical and found an article on “alien abduction”!
5753TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_005The way it was described was almost exactly what happened to the inspector...it even had a little diagram of a man swimming in midair. Anyway, the author seemed convinced that the victim had been taken to the moon!
5854TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_Q2_000_000What will you say?
5955TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_A2_000_001This crackpot theory sounds awfully familiar...
6056TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_A2_000_002Why does this sound like the kind of rubbish <Emphasis>The Thavnairian Truth</Emphasis> publishes...?
6157TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_006That's because it is! You remember Dorian, the editor in briefs? He was the one who wrote it!
6258TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_007And he plans on doing research for the next edition on the moon itself. Apparently there's a portal or something in Garlemald that will take you straight there?
6359TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_008Oh, but a world-hopping adventurer like you must've been to the moon already! Know it like the back of your hand, I bet?
6460TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_009I thought so! It'll be nice to have an expert guide up there to help me search for clues. What say you?
6561TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_Q3_000_000What will you say?
6662TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_A3_000_001To the moon, Nashu!
6763TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_A3_000_002We shouldn't be so quick to trust the nonsensical ramblings of a man who sees aliens in every shadow.
6864TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_010But an alien <Emphasis>did</Emphasis> steal away the inspector, just like Dorian said! I, for one, have faith in his journalistic intensity.
6965TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_011And even if it wasn't an alien, that funny little ship did look like it was heading moonwards. Wouldn't you agree?
7066TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_012Right! I'll start packing my bags!
7167TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_013I don't know what the weather is like on the moon, but I remember Garlemald being a bit chilly the last time I was there...
7268TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_020Oh, it's m-much, much colder than I r-remembered. I sure hope this lunar gate is close...
7369TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_021The “Tower of Babble”? You mean that big, spiky spire?
7470TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_022Well, we definitely shouldn't get lost on the way there! Let's get moving!
7571TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_030So, uh, this thing'll send us up to the moon, just like that? Courage, Nashu...
7672TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_DELION_000_031(-???-)The world is in grave danger and the people deserve to know! I have to reach the moon so I can expose the truth!
7773TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_LENTESTEARSGATEKEEPER_000_032As I have explained to you twice already, I can only allow passage to authorized travelers. Which you are not.
7874TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_DELION_000_000Ah! You're with <Emphasis>them</Emphasis>, aren't you!? The aliens have infiltrated every layer of our society...
7975TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_LENTESTEARSGATEKEEPER_000_033What in blazes are you talking about? I'm Dalmascan, born and raised...
8076TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_034Oh, look! It's Dorian! The editor in briefs!
8177TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_DELION_000_035That's “Delion, editor in chief,” thank you very much. And you were friends of the abducted, I believe...?
8278TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_LENTESTEARSGATEKEEPER_000_036<Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>, greetings. Are you acquainted with this man, by any chance?

8581TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_A4_000_002No, nor am I affiliated with him in any way, shape, or form.
8682TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_LENTESTEARSGATEKEEPER_000_037And that was enough, I'd wager. He has “trouble” written all over him...
8783TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_LENTESTEARSGATEKEEPER_000_038I wouldn't think so. He doesn't seem the kind of company a hero like you would keep...
8884TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_039But, <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/>, aren't you forgetting that whole conversation we had with Dorian back in Radz–at–Han?

9086TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_DELION_000_041As a champion of the people, you have a duty to lead us through this fact-strangling checkpoint! We cannot let your comrade's abduction go unsolved! He needs you! And the world needs my next article!
9187TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_LENTESTEARSGATEKEEPER_000_042...And you believe he was taken to the moon?
9288TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_LENTESTEARSGATEKEEPER_000_043Well, that certainly sounds like an emergency to me! Your “acquaintance” here seems sincere in his desire to help, so I will grant him special dispensation to accompany you just this once. You may proceed to the Nethergate.
9389TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_DELION_000_044Mysterious forces have thrust us together, and though I trust the fates about as much as I trust that obviously compromised gate guard, I will leave no moonstone unturned. The truth is up there!

9591TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_050Oooh, the moon is just as white and shiny up close. <sniff> <sniff> But not made of cheese. And no sign of Inspector Hildibrand either...
9692TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_DELION_000_051So...we've already arrived!? The Empire's technology is more advanced than I feared...
9793TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_DELION_000_052<gasp> Over there! The aliens have built some kind of forward base on the lunar surface! We must sneak in and blow the lid on their invasion plans...
9894TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_053Looks like Dorian has a lead. Come on, we should follow him.
9995TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_DELION_000_054Aliens! Honest-to-gods aliens! I never expected them to be so tall...or so small and bunny-like...

10399TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_DELION_000_058And this one speaks our tongue fluently! Learned it from your Sharlayan collaborators, I'll wager. Don't think you'll fool me, what with your adorable bunny nose and silken ears! I'll print the truth before you arrive to beguile my fellow men!
104100TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_GENTLELOPORRIT_000_059You're one of Urianger's friends, aren't you? I'm not sure who or what put such odd ideas into your companion's head, but would you mind setting him straight for me...?

109105TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_DELION_000_061I suppose I shouldn't be surprised─I've heard the rumors about the “disbanded” Scions of the Seventh Dawn. The formerly secret society has in truth become all the more secret, that it may pull our leaders' strings from the shadows...
110106TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_061Hold it right there, mister! I won't stand here and listen to you slander <Split(<Highlight>ObjectParameter(1)</Highlight>, ,1)/> or this lovely bunny any longer. You better not libel them neither!

150146TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_104You have a case more important than this one? All right, we'll suspend the investigation until you get back!
151147TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_DELION_000_105I understand: being confronted with evidence of the uncanny can be unsettling to say the least. Take the time to adjust your thinking, then rejoin us where we came in.
152148TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_106All solved and sorted? Great, let's reopen our investigation here!

154150TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_SYSTEM_000_108You must be accompanied by Nashu and Delion, and have them at your side in order to proceed with quest objectives.
155151TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_SYSTEM_000_109Nashu and Delion have yet to arrive. Be sure they are at your side before attempting to continue.

157153TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_LOPORRITB04641_000_120Oh, ever since we built the Excitatron 6000, we get all kinds of people around here! Could you describe your missing friend in a bit more detail?
158154TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_121Well, he's very gentlemanly and dapper...if you look past the almost-certainly tattered state of his clothing.
159155TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_LOPORRITB04641_000_122Hmmm...though their fashion sense can be a bit eclectic, our visiting adventurers are always dressed impeccably. Not to be rude, but I've a feeling your friend would have stood out in that crowd...
160156TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_DELION_000_123He's probably strapped to a table somewhere, even as we speak. Enduring unspeakable experiments... <shudder>
161157TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_DELION_000_124From what I've pieced together so far, the giant alien is the master. And all these smaller “xeno-bunnies” are artificial life-forms, created to serve as minions in his armies.
162158TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_DELION_000_125Their harmless appearance is part of the strategy. As soon as you let your guard down...<Emphasis>snap</Emphasis>! They take you down like a pack of tiny herbivorous wolves.

164160TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_LOPORRITB04641_000_128Once you find your friend, you should all come back and give the Excitatron a whirl! I guarantee you'll love it 6000!

166162TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_WEAVINGWAY_000_131It was while I was out gathering materials, in the south of Mare Lamentorum. I presumed it was just some Allagan relic or new species of floating jellyfish, and didn't think too much of it.
167163TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_132Cor, now that sounds promising! Thank you for your time!
168164TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_DELION_000_133What's this, then? A pod for growing new xeno-bunnies? They must plan to produce them in the millions, and overwhelm us with sheer fuzzy numbers...
169165TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_DELION_000_134Ah! How could I have been so blind! Those aren't ears...they're psychic wave generators! They lure people close with their precious little faces, and then <Emphasis>bam</Emphasis>! Brainwashed!

172168TEXT_CHRHDB821_04641_NASHUMHAKARACCA_000_137He thinks he's a friend to the people, but I don't think any people are his friends.
