==Dialogue==
;(Talk to Khedive)
:Khedive: What a curious geological environment we're in now! I'm sure I can outdo the research goals set by the Akademiya this year.
:Khedive: Oh, Traveler, what's up?
: So, about these mushrooms...
:Khedive: No wonder they say you're an experienced adventurer — You came back with new findings so soon.
:Khedive: Huh? Are you sure you found them here? How strange...
: Is it strange for mushrooms to grow underground?
:Khedive: That's not what I mean.
:Khedive: It's just that they look similar to an indigenous mushroom in Sumeru.
:Khedive: I can't be sure yet with what we've got here. If I have enough samples, I might be able to arrive at a conclusion.
:Khedive: Speaking of which... Since you found it, you must know where to get more. Could you lend a hand?
:Khedive: Bring me enough mushrooms and I'll pay you handsomely.
: So, how many is enough?
:Khedive: Mmm... Lemme think. Please bring me eight for starters.
:Khedive: Don't worry. So long as you bring them to me, I'll make sure to repay you in full!

;(Talk to Khedive again)
:Khedive: What a curious geological environment we're in now! I'm sure I can outdo the research goals set by the Akademiya this year.
:Khedive: Oh, Traveler, what's up?
: Here're the mushrooms you asked for.
:Khedive: You have my thanks.
:Khedive: With your help, my research is — what do they call it in Liyue? — "as smooth as a cat soaring in the air."
: Like a winged tiger?
:Khedive: Yes, like a winged tiger!
:Khedive: What happened to these fungi?
:Khedive: How strange. They look almost identical to an indigenous species in Sumeru save for the fluorescein. Why? Is it because they've evolved in the darkness?
:Khedive: But why does their look remain the same after the evolution?
: You've lost me...
: Is anything not adding up?
:Khedive: Hmm... Simply put, fungi evolve to adapt to their surrounding environment, but by the looks of it, this type of fungi is more suited to living in forest environments.
:Khedive: That's why I'm so certain of their Sumeru origin.
: So, why do they glow?
:Khedive: Since they aren't an indigenous species of The Chasm, they didn't evolve to glow. Rather, the glowing is a result of some abnormal ecological phenomenon...
:Khedive: It's probably because of the fragment that fell from the sky. After absorbing its energy...
: The fragment?
: What is it?
:Khedive: Ahem... Huh? What did you say? Something about a "fragment"? Um, I mean, when the fragments of fungi fell from the sky, they must've...
:Khedive: ...Undergone some random mutation.
:Khedive: That must be it!
:Khedive: Uh... Thank you for collecting these fungi. It's been a busy day. Please go get some rest, you've earned it!
:Khedive: I'm gonna study them now, so if you wouldn't mind leaving me alone for a bit...
;(Quest ends)
;(Dialogue continues to Akademiya Recommendation Letter if the player has completed the other two investigation quests)
===Akademiya Recommendation Letter===
After completing all three investigation quests, the player will be granted the and receive the Akademiya Recommendation Letter from Khedive.
;(Dialogue continues immediately after the three investigation quests are completed)
:Khedive: Let's get to the serious topic.
:Khedive: You've done me a big favor the past few days. I really know how I can repay you.
:Khedive: Considering our amiable collaboration so far, it wouldn't be enough to pay you with Mora.
: Actually, if you insist...
:Khedive: Be serious! Am I so vulgar as to humiliate you with mere gold?
:Khedive: Wouldn't that be a sheer insult to you?
:Khedive: Here, take this letter. If you ever run into any trouble or need some help in your future journey in Sumeru, bring it to the House of Purbiruni.
:Khedive: We'll spare no effort in helping you.
:Khedive: "Connections are far more precious than gold."
:Khedive: This Sumeru saying rings quite true.
