[edit] Initial dialogue
Eurus
- "You look somewhat heroic...perhaps you can help me? I met this nice fellow in Cantha named Bahsang. He sold me a blessed cowbell that actually wards off the plague when you use it! Handy, no? I thought so, too. Well, as I was coming back from Cantha by way of the coast, a group of kappa jumped me from out of nowhere. I'm no warrior...I admit that fear overtook me, and as I fled, I dropped my precious cowbell into a bed of blue oysters under the shadow of Mount Qinkai. What will I do if the plague returns? Without that blessed cowbell I have no way to protect myself!"
- Accept: "You will have your cowbell, Eurus. I swear it."
- Decline: "No, seriously...who put you up to this?"
- When asked about quest: "Please, Cantha is rife with plague and the only inoculation is my blessed cowbell! I lost it somewhere by the blue oysters that litter the beach near Mount Qinkai."
[edit] Reward dialogue
Eurus
- "Thank goodness you recovered that cowbell! Your absence gave me time to think...perhaps I'm being selfish, keeping this power for myself. I have never seen anything like this cowbell, and I do myself and every member of my clan a disservice if I don't use it to protect as many of us from the plague as possible. It is often said among my people that a great reaver guides us all to the next life, digging through the sky of jade and leading the dead to the great, wide sea in the stars. With this cowbell, I will show them that we have no need to fear the reaver."
[edit] Trivia
"More Cowbell" is a reference to a Saturday Night Live skit. One of the lines from the skit was "I got a fever, and the only prescription... is more cowbell!"; similarly Eurus believes the cowbell is a cure for the plague. As well, in order to find the cowbell, one must search through "blue oysters," which is a reference to the band "Blue Oyster Cult". Also the final line of the reward dialogue is a parody of the title of the song by "Blue Oyster Cult" involved in the skit: "(Don't Fear) The Reaper"
