Dialogue[edit]
Prior to Canthan New Year finale:
- "Hello there. Here, taste this! Is it not grand? I have been blessed with the opportunity to create the celestial’s main course, and I am planning an intricate and exquisite dish. I do, however, need help gathering the following ingredients:"
- "Bring me each and every gastronomic component so that I might please the celestial during the festival. I am counting on you!"
While requesting ingredients:
- "The main dish is extremely complicated: azure steaks with a side of spider legs drenched in an unctuous cream sauce served on the half shell. It simply is not going to work unless I can get some <ingredient>. Can you spare some?"
You're in luck. As a matter of fact, I've got some right here.
- "Well, if you happen to stumble across any, please stop by."
I'd love to help, but I don't have that ingredient. (If ingredient requested is not in inventory.)
- or
- "Let me have a little taste.... Ah, yes. Magnificent! It is important to sample your ingredients before using them. Food preparation is a delicate science not to be taken lightly." (If ingredient requested is in inventory.)
- "Well, if you happen to stumble across any, please stop by."
After preparing his dish:
- "I am shocked. The main course is a success! I could not have done it without you, <character name>." (If dish was successful.)
- or
- "It was a valiant effort, but the dish was a disaster. We did everything we could. Here's to hoping the celestial does not eat us instead!." (If dish was unsuccessful.)
Quotes[edit]
When requesting ingredients:
- "Excuse me, if anyone has any <ingredient> they could spare, please come and see me."
When presenting to the celestial:
- "I have prepared for you this day a sizzling azure steak broiled to perfection with a side of steamed spider legs and a delicious butter unctuous dipping sauce, all served in a half-shell. It is a dish I call scurry and turfy. I hope you enjoy." (If dish was successful.)
- or
- "I must profess my utmost apologies, great celestial. I was given the honor to cook for you and I have failed. I hope our final dish, the dessert, will appease your delicate palate after this failed creation." (If dish was unsuccessful.)
Trivia[edit]
- His dish, scurry and turfy, is a reference to a main dish found in North American steakhouses called "surf and turf" - a combination of meat and seafood.
