Dialogue

Accepting the Quest

Oroniri Hunter: I gather from your peculiar attire that you are not from around here?
Oroniri Hunter: Very good. I have always been curious to observe a warrior from outside the Steppe in battle. You see, as a hunter, it is my duty to defend the Dawn Throne and the surrounding perimeter─especially against creatures known as chaochus.
Oroniri Hunter: As such, I am constantly searching for ways to improve my own fighting technique. I feel there is a lot I can learn by observing you. Please, if you are willing, meet me to the southwest of here. There you can demonstrate to me your combat style.

Speaking with the Oroniri hunter

Oroniri Hunter: This area is populated by chaochus. Please go and slay two. I shall carefully observe your movements from here.
(Optional)
Oroniri Hunter: Please quickly go and slay two chaochus for me. I am anxious to see how you fight and if any of your techniques might be applied to my own.

Reporting to the Oroniri hunter

Oroniri Hunter: Over the course of my lifetime I have been exposed to many combat styles but never have I met anyone who fights with such fluidity and grace.
Oroniri Hunter: Today I have gained some valuable insight into the art of war and for that I would like to gift you with something of equal worth. Please, follow me.

Speaking with the Oroniri hunter

Oroniri Hunter: The more I replay the scene of you facing the chaochus, the more I am impressed with just how refined your skills are. You even somehow managed to slay the creatures while leaving the flowers blossoming from their heads untouched.
Oroniri Hunter: Chaochu flowers are extremely precious to us and we often offer them up to Father Azim during certain ceremonies. Though, should they be missing even a single petal, it would ruin the gesture entirely.
Oroniri Hunter: While I have little difficulty in taking down these monsters, I often end up destroying their flowers in the process. I am confident that in incorporating a few of your techniques this can change.
Oroniri Hunter: I shall not forget the knowledge you have bestowed upon me today. You have my sincerest thanks.
