Initial dialogue

 * Initiate Zei Ri
 * "Are you by any chance...? No, it is you! This is well and truly an honor. I did not think I would get to meet one of the heroes responsible for Shiro Tagachi's defeat. Cantha owes you a debt of gratitude for what you have done."
 * "Since the fall of the Betrayer, Cantha has continued the fight to protect itself. The Ministry of Purity was formed to empower the people, that we might stand together as a stronger whole, to keep our homes and loved ones safe. Countless lives were lost to the Afflicted Plague, and that is a horror that we must never allow to happen again."
 * "The Ministry of Purity has fought tirelessly against the Afflicted, and the end seems to be in sight, at last. I wonder... If this would not be too forward of me to ask, would you lend Cantha your aid once more? Afflicted have been found in Bukdek Byway. I go there to face them, and I would be privileged to have you stand at my side."

Intermediate dialogue

 * Initiate Zei Ri: "It doesn't matter how many times I see these creatures, I'm never able to forget that they were once human."
 * Initiate Zei Ri: "Imagine how terrifying it must have been for them. Slowly losing themselves to something so twisted. No one should have to leave this world in that way."
 * Initiate Zei Ri: "Some part of me looks at the Afflicted and wonders: Who were they before? What must their lives have been like?"

Reward dialogue

 * Initiate Zei Ri
 * "It is a great thing that we have accomplished this day. We have laid to rest those souls unfairly claimed by the Affliction, and we have made Kaineng a safer place for those who remain. I hope that you will continue to assist us in our endeavor. Please take this as compensation, along with my graditude."
