[edit] Dialogue
[edit] Initial Dialogue
Hapless Chong::
- "Why do I burden the world with my presence? Who would miss poor old Chong if he just leapt off this cliff and snapped his useless neck? *sigh*
- Don't mind me. I am simply coming to grips with my fate. That blasted fortune teller...no, Chong, it is not her fault. You should not blame her for doing her job. *cough* The wise and revered fortune teller revealed some unsettling news. This year something terrible will befall me. I cannot help but drown myself in depression. After all, what does dear old Chong have to look forward to? Unless...I did hear talk of a gifted woman. One so smart the gods themselves seek her counsel. Plead my case to Guwon the Wise. Only she can reverse my terrible fortune. Give me a reason to live, won't you, <player name>?"
- Accept: "Signs point to yes."
- Decline: "Outlook not good."
- When asked about quest: "Did you find Guwon the Wise at Kaabo Cemetery, <name>? Please, she is my only hope."
[edit] Intermediate Dialogue
Guwon the Wise
- "I find the sound of the tides comforting. What is it you seek, child? Enlightenment? Eternal bliss? Affordable housing? Wait...yes. Do not speak. I know your intentions. To solve this calamity, I require three items: a bunch of nong berries, a sparkling kappa shell, and a vial filled with Raiyan spring water. Bring these items to me and I will have what I need."
Guwon the Wise
- "Ah, I was beginning to wonder when you would return. I cannot very well have my morning nong berry tea in the afternoon, can I? Now please leave me to ponder the mysteries of the universe."
Player response
- "Aren't you going to help Chong?"
Guwon the Wise
- "Oh, of course. What was his problem again? Ah, the fortune teller delivered grave news as to his untimely demise? Terrible shame. I can change a man's destiny with a proper cleansing ceremony. A few words, dunk of the head, and voila! He shall be free of troubles in no time. Meet us on the shores of Kaitan Village. I will need your energy to help power the cleansing...and to hold his head under water should he resist."
In Panjiang Peninsula:
- Guwon the Wise: "People of Cantha, bear witness to a life-changing event."
- Guwon the Wise: "Chong, you stand before the gods a humble servant. Your fate doled out mercilessly by agents unknown."
- Guwon the Wise: "Let your soul be cleansed this day. Sit and feel benevolence from beyond!"
- Guwon the Wise: "Oh dear."
[edit] Reward Dialogue
Guwon the Wise
- "How unfortunate. It appears that your friend could not escape his destiny no matter how hard I tried. Why do you look at me like that? This is not my fault! It was obviously fate that brought this about. However, I cannot afford to let news of this...incident...leak out. It would ruin my reputation! Take this. It is the money Chong gave me to alter his destiny. I was looking forward to putting it toward a vacation, but your silence is a better investment. Remember, the word is, I believe, "mum.""
[edit] Trivia
- The addition of the level 5 requirement has probably been added to prevent farming of the festival quests, that took place during the 2007 celebration.
- This quest was designed by John Stumme and written by Bobby Stein.
