Dialogue[]
Quest Description- Chixia: Rover, it's a Sonance Casket! Hmm... Hang on to it. I know this old acquaintance who's a relic merchant. He knows a lot about stuff like this. I'll take you to him when we get to Jinzhou.
- Chenpi: Hello, Xiaofang. You seem to be in a hurry. What's the matter today?
- Chixia: Shh... Uncle Chenpi... Please don't call me that, remember?
- Chenpi: Oops, my bad. I should call you Chixia, Patroller Chixia.
- Chenpi: So... This youngling here must be a friend of our great Patroller Chixia, yes?
- Chixia: Uncle Chenpi, please stop teasing me.
Hello.- Chixia: Uncle Chenpi, this is my friend Rover, hehe. I brought him/her here today for some help...
- (Give the Sonance Casket to Chenpi.)
- Chenpi: Wow, this thing is really hard to find. I've been out in the wild searching for something like this...
- Chenpi: I'm so lucky to meet you today, Rover.
- What is a Sonance Casket.
- Chenpi: It might look like a box, but it's actually some kind of energy entity that doesn't have a physical existence.
- Chenpi: On the other hand... One could consider it a box, in a way. The usual boxes contain physical items, but the Sonance Caskets contain records of the past.
- Chenpi: Simply put...
- Chenpi: Well... my young friend, this is a data fragment that survived the collapse of Sonoro Spheres. The Sonance Caskets, just like the Sonoro Spheres, hold onto the sounds from the bygone days.
- Chenpi: Within these Caskets, one can find the most treasured artifacts from the magnificient civilization that existed before the Lament, as well as the profound human emotions experienced during the catastrophe.
- Chenpi: Ah... They represent the final remnants of the bygone era, washed away by the relentless tide of history.
- Chenpi: I have a selfish request to make.
- Chenpi: Could you please let me have this Sonance Casket?
- Why?
- What's in it for me?
- Chenpi: Of course, I'll give you something in return.
- Chenpi: To be frank, the Sonance Casket doesn't hold any financial worth.
- Chenpi: Yet for those of us who are relic hunters, the information stored in these Sonance Caskets is highly coveted.
- Chenpi: I can pay you will Shell Credits, or other valuable items.
- Chenpi: Long story short, it's a sweet deal for you. I'll make sure you're happy with what you get.
- Chixia: Rover, you can trust Uncle Chenpi. He is a famous treasure appraiser in Jinzhou, definitely not a bad person who'd try to slip one past you.
- Chixia: Besides, I, Chixia, am a Patroller. If he ever lies to you... Hmph, justice will punish him.
- Chenpi: Aww, Chixia... You know I'll never do something like that...
- Chixia: Just kidding, Uncle Chenpi! You're so kind, no hard feelings, okay?
- It's a deal, then. (Hand over the Sonance Casket)
- Chenpi: Great... Thank you, Rover.
- (Quest Complete)
Hello.- (Optional - Talk to Chenpi again and chose "About Sonance Caskets" option)
- Chenpi: Now, if you have any other questions, please ask away.
- (Ask about Chixia’s name change.)
- Chenpi: Haha, well... I’m afraid you should ask Patroller Chixia herself.
- Chixia: Rover, you... Can we please not talk about this? My old name was cringy, that’s all…
- Chixia: No, I don’t mean to hide anything from you...
- Chixia: You see, “Ma Xiaofang” just sounds so lame. Heroes in the Hero Plays I watch never use any name like that.
- So your dream is to become a hero.
- Chixia: Yeah, I’m not quite a hero yet, but I’m giving it my all.
- You’re gonna be the hero of Huanglong, Ma Xiaofang.
- Chixia: Aww… Please, spare me that, Rover.
- Chixia: Okay... Because we’re besties, I’ll give in a little. You can call me Ma Xiaofang when it’s just us, but please don’t do that when there’s other people.
- You’re gonna be the hero of Huanglong, Chixia.
- Chixia: That’s right! Chixia, Chixia... oh, what a magnificent name! I came up with it all by myself. This is the culmination of all my life experiences and knowledge!
- Chixia: Rover, feel free to call me by any name, but... Ahem, just so you know, that name is for our ears only, okay?
- (Ask him why he is collecting Sonance Caskets.)
- Chixia: Yeah, I wanna know too. You’re all about exploring the past, but people always say we should be looking ahead, so what’s the deal?
- Chixia: Yeah, I wanna know too. Why are you so keen on collecting Sonance Caskets, Uncle Chenpi? Those… Fragments of past data, are they really that important?
- Chenpi: The past has influenced how things are today and will be in the future, as everything we see has changed a lot over many years.
- Chenpi: The seeds of yesterday give root to the flowers of tomorrow. In the absence of historical knowledge, how can we engage in discussions about the future?
- Chenpi: The past serves as a reminder of our origins, ensuring that we do not lose sight of our original intentions amidst the overwhelming current of history.
- Chixia: Ah… I see. That sounds really cool. Thank you, Uncle Chenpi.
- Chenpi: You’re welcome.
- (Ask if he can teach you treasure appraisal.)
- Chixia: Oh right. Uncle Chenpi’s the best treasure appraiser in town.
- Chenpi: I appreciate the compliment, Chixia. There are numerous talented individuals in Jinzhou, and I am far from being one of the best.
- Chenpi: If the art of appraising treasure piques your interest, it may be worthwhile to seek guidance from a young girl known as “Master Youhu” if you cross paths with her in the future.
- Chenpi: I am not nearly as skilled as her. Youngsters these days are seriously talented.
- Chenpi: Ugh, speaking of that, I haven’t seen Youhu for a while now. Hopefully she didn’t get into trouble again…
- I've got nothing to ask.
- Chenpi: If you ever find other Sonance Caskets, please consider selling them to me.
- Chenpi: Don't worry, the pay will make it worth your while. I'm not stingy when it comes to money.
(Ask about Chixia’s name change.)
