Dialogue[edit]
Naroth
So, you are the travellers that Ruthan was talking about.
Actually, I have a favour I'd like to request of you.
You know what I refer to, yes?

Naroth
Did you forget?! Did Ruthan not tell you?
The deciphering of the ancient texts, remember?

If Riki is in the active party, he will comment:
Riki
What bird man talking about?
Riki forgetted.
Remind Riki please!
Riki forgetted.
Remind Riki please!
Naroth
Intriguing...
You claim to have failed to retain this invaluable knowledge?
Could this perhaps be an issue with memory formation?
Note to self:
Dissection, research and analysis of Nopon subject - mandatory.

Naroth
What?!
An individual of your ...nature... has a wife and children?!
Intriguing, most intriguing...
I could conduct valuable research into Nopon breeding habits...
Go; bring your mate and offspring at once!

Riki
Never! No, never! Riki say big 'NO'!
Change the subject or Riki no help you!

Naroth
Well...progress has been made since your help last time.
The deciphering machine is now operational, but there is an issue.
It's accuracy, you see, leaves something to be desired.
At this rate, our research may never truly reach completion...
Thus we intend to improve our deciphering machine.
For this, I'd like you to go and collect some materials for me.
Can I count on you?

The party accepts the quest:
Naroth
Thank you for helping!
Deciphering the texts will shine much light on our origins.
We can look forward to some great discoveries.
I'm counting on you.

The party declines the quest:
Naroth
I see. You are busy.
Well, should you have time, please come and speak with me.

Return to Naroth[edit]
Naroth
Excellent work!
The modifications will take just a moment, so please wait there.
After all your hard work, I'm sure you want to see the results.

The screen fades to black for a moment while Naroth goes to test the machine and then fades back in.
Naroth
Mwahahaha! Perfect!
You see, it has already deciphered a little of the ancient text!
It would appear the text pertains to the High Entia War God.
This is an excellent rate of progress.
If it continues, we will surely come to unlock the secrets of our past!
Ah - my apologies. I forgot myself for a moment. A bad habit of mine.
But thanks to this, we can press on with our research unhindered!
Ruthan and I will work day and night until it is complete!

And then, with the help of the girl who discovered the tomes...
Ah - my apologies! Getting lost in thought again.
Anyway, here is a little something to say thank you.
