Dialogue

Accepting the Quest

Stalwart Soldier: You are [Forename] [Surname], the hero who hails from the West. Aye, 'tis plain from the glimmer in your eyes and the strength in your bearing. I realize this is sudden, but will you accompany me outside?
Stalwart Soldier: It shan't take long, nor will there be any danger. Just a scenic walk to sprinkle wine at a handful of places.
Stalwart Soldier: Doubtless you are wondering about the purpose of this activity. For now, I ask that you humor a comrade and think of it as a peculiar local tradition.
Stalwart Soldier: Here is the wine. Pray bring it with you to the docks. I shall tell you more as we make our way.

Speaking with the stalwart soldier

Stalwart Soldier: You have the wine I gave you, yes? Pray give these grounds here a dash of it.

Stalwart Soldier: And that is the last spot. Let us make our way back, shall we?

Speaking with the stalwart soldier

Stalwart Soldier: Now then, I believe an explanation is in order. Those places we visited are where many of our comrades fell fighting the Empire.
Stalwart Soldier: When Yotsuyu tried to make an example of Monzen, they rose up and fought courageously to the last man.
Stalwart Soldier: To receive an offering of wine from a hero such as you, I do not doubt that they will be pleased.
Stalwart Soldier: Aside from paying my respects, I wished to introduce you to them, you see. They will rest easier in the knowledge that we have allies strong and true who fight with us. My thanks for your company, [Forename].
