  1. CaelidWe're finally meeting the famous Kochi.
  2. BaoAre you Daeva ready to leave, nyerk? There are things we need to do on the way, so no dawdling!
  3. We need to move goods to the Northern Station! Escort them safely, and I'll introduce you to Kochi!
  4. PhernosCan't we go see Kochi ourselves?
  5. BaoIt's not that simple, nyerk. Kochi has little trust for Daeva — he thinks you're all too crafty, nyerk nyerk!
  6. But an introduction from me is worth its weight in Kina!

  1. CaelidSince we're going that way, we may as well help. Daeva, you escort that Shugo.
  2. We're going to stop by Wind Breeze headquarters first. It's better to know more about Kochi in advance.
  3. BaoIf you're done chattering, hurry up and load the luggage onto the Lugi, nyerk.
  4. BaoNyerk! There they are. Completely empty!
  5. GuaThose birdbrains stole a lot of our supplies!
  6. They couldn't have taken everything, nyerk! Please retrieve what's left over!
  7. BaoMeet me in front of the bridge when you're done, nyerk.
  8. BaoOh nyerk! The bridge is broken!
  9. There are Aullaeu feathers scattered all over, nyerk. Those meddling birdbrains must be responsible!
  10. There's no choice, nyerk. We'll have to ford the river, even if our fur gets wet.
  11. BaoHah, those birdbrains got what they deserved, nyerk.
  12. Thank you for your help. Those birdbrains won't dare come back for a while, nyerk.
  13. Let's cross the river.
  14. This way, nyerk.
  15. Are you ready to leave, Gua?
  16. We'll be leaving shortly!
  17. Let's go, nyerk.
  18. Roo! Rooooo!
  19. I only got caught because I let my guard down.
  20. Okay, sure, maybe the Aullaeu were a little scary...
  21. BaoAh! Supply chest, nyerk!
  22. Let's meet up at the bridge.
  23. BaoPlease recover the stolen goods!
  24. Let's meet up at the bridge, nyerk.
  25. The bridge has collapsed!
  26. Eek! Bird brains!
  27. Bao! Take cover!
  28. BaoNyerk! Hurry up and get rid of them!
  29. You got them all!
  30. BaoWe'll meet at the Northern Station, nyerk.
  31. Who did this, nyerk!?
  32. Let's keep a look out.
  33. What's this?! We have you now!
  34. Ridiculous! Kill them!
  35. Resistance is futile! Absurd!
  36. BaoThis way, nyerk.
  37. Aullaeu ChaserWhat's this?! We have you now, rodents!
  38. Recovered Wind Breeze supplies.
  39. BaoThanks to you, we didn't lose our valuable goods, nyerk.
  40. You're quite useful for a Daeva, nyerk! I'll put in a good word with Kochi!
  41. The headquarters isn't far from here, nyerk. Let's meet there! I will introduce you to Kochi personally, nyerk!
  42. KochiHmm... So you're the Daeva who helped my merchants? Maybe you aren't all so bad, nyerk.
  43. So, why were you so keen to meet me, nyerk? Are you expecting some kind of reward?
  44. PhernosWe are here to ask for information regarding a high priestess and her whereabouts.
  45. KochiA high priestess? Hmph, why would you look for someone like that here?
  46. CaelidSpecifically Reda, the High Priestess of Illusion.
  47. KochiNyerk! N-Never heard of her! I don't deal with such people!
  48. PhernosAnd yet we have seen evidence of your dealings. Does the word 'Scarlotus' sound familiar?
  49. KochiI-I don't know anything, nyerk! Stop pestering me and get out!
  50. Bao! Get these hucksters out of here! Let nobody else into my office, nyerk!
  51. BaoYou made him upset. Why did you do that... nyerk.
  52. CaelidWe did everything you asked, and this is what we get for it?
  53. BaoI... I don't know. Ah... Aha! I have an idea, nyerk!
  54. This area is full of Gravi, nyerk. We use their herbs often, so they're always in demand.
  55. Daeva probably haven't even tried them before, nyerk! If you bring some Gravi herbs, you might find Kochi more amenable.
  56. LuterosHa... Give these Shugo an inch and they'll take a mile. Typical...
  57. BaoNyerk! You're the ones who upset Kochi!
  58. You're lucky you had me here to tell you about the Gravi.
  59. Just get those herbs, and Kochi will be much easier to persuade, nyerk!
  60. CaelidWhat other choice do we have? Let's split up to cover more ground.
