==Dialogue==
;(Approach the marked area)
:Paimon: Hey, it's Arama... and an Aranara we don't know! Are they looking for Ashvattha's Concourse around here?
----
;(Approach Arama and Aradasa — if this is the first quest started out of the three)
::Arama: Greetings, Nara , Paimon!
::Paimon: It's good to see you again, Arama! Who's the Aranara with you...?
::???: ♪~
::Arama: Oh, Aradasa is a "song gatherer" who collects songs of all kinds. He doesn't like talking. He believes singing is way better.
::Paimon: Hmm... Eh, you do have a point. So, is this one of Ashvattha's Concourses?
::Paimon: There aren't any trees here, but there sure are roses... floating in mid-air?
::Arama: No, it is not. But it is a great discovery nonetheless. Here lies a song that we Aranara have been unable to find for many, many years.
::Arama: Aranara song gatherers always pursue the beauty of songs. At the end of time, they will leave behind a song that belongs only to themselves.
:: Does this have anything to do with Ashvattha's Concourses?
:::Arama: Yes! This over here seems to be the song left behind by Arayama. If that's the case, there should be a Vasara Tree nearby.
:: Best of luck to you.
:::Arama: Thank you, Nara ! This seems to be the song left by Arayama. If that's the case, there should be a Vasara Tree nearby. We've lucked out!
::Paimon: Paimon remembers Araja saying something about the Vasara Trees... Let Paimon check the Aranyaka real quick...
::Paimon: Vasara Trees bear Vasoma Fruits! We should help them, !
::Arama: Thank you! The song is hidden among the roses. But Arayasa and I have looked for hours and hours, and we couldn't find it. The roses won't talk to us either.
::Paimon: Paimon sees. , let's try having a look, too!
:: Since it's for Rana...
:: Okay.
::Paimon: Yup! And anyway, finding stuff is what we do best!
;(Approach Arama and Aradasa — if this is not the first quest started out of the three)
::Arama: Greetings, Nara , Paimon!
::Paimon: Hey there, Arama. Good to see you again! Who's the Aranara with you?
::???: ♪~
::Arama: Oh, Aradasa is also a "song gatherer." He doesn't like talking. He believes singing is way better.
::Paimon: Hmm... Eh, you do have a point. Anyway, is there a song hidden here too?
::Arama: Yes! Aradasa said Arayama's song has been left here. If that's the case, there should be a Vasara Tree nearby.
::Paimon: And where there's a Vasara Tree, there should be a Vasoma Fruit! Let's help them out, !
::Arama: Thank you! It's just as before — the song is hidden amongst the roses. Nara and Paimon are smart. I'm sure you can find it right away!
:: Since it's for Rana...
:: Okay.
::Paimon: Yep! Leave it to us!
;(Talk to Arama again)
:Arama: I wonder. What sort of song did Arayama leave behind?
;(Talk to Aradasa again)
:Aradasa: ♪~
----
;(Investigate the stone)
:These may have some connection with the "hidden song" in the roses...
;(After finding the correct orientation)
:Paimon: , look! The roses are glowing! Try according to how they appear!
;(After playing the song)
:Aradasa: ...
:Arama: This is the song Arayama left behind...
:Aradasa: "Press forward and sing, even if the path is filled with flame..."
:Aradasa: "Even if the pale moonlight on that night resembles the eyes of a dying beast..."
:Arama: "For we are the children of the Valley of Life — for we are the seeds of courage."
:Paimon: So this is the song we found...?
:Aradasa: "For the pomegranates that wish to bear fruits, for the roses that yearn to blossom."
:Aradasa: "A distant sky yet so close at hand... A promise ever unbroken... A city that returns to you in your dreams..."
:Arama: I see, I see it now! We can clear out the obstacles along the way to Ashvattha's Concourse using Arayama's song.
: That makes sense to me too.
::Paimon: Wait a minute. What makes sense again?
: How did you "see it"?
:Arama: Through Arayama's song, of course. Hmm... Is this something that might be hard to grasp if you are not an Aranara?
:Arama: Anyway, Aradasa, how about you go back to prepare for Festival Utsava? Leave Ashvattha's Concourse to me!
:Aradasa: ♪~
:Paimon: We'll come with you! After all, we promised to help you get those Vasoma Fruits!
:Aradasa: "...Press forward and sing."
----
;(Approach the marked area)
:Arama: The path towards Ashvattha's Concourse has been sealed by Arayama. But not to worry. We can move the obstacles using his song!
----
;(The dialogue for entering the Withering Zone is conditional based on the order the three quests are completed)
;(Enter the Withering Zone — if this was the first quest started out of the three)
:Arama: Marana's corrosion is getting more serious. Even Ashvattha's Concourse...
:Paimon: Is this Ashvattha's Concourse? Don't worry, Arama, just leave everything to !
;(Enter the Withering Zone — if this was the second quest started out of the three)
:Arama: Nara , Paimon, be careful! Marana is here too!
:Paimon: Yeah. You be careful too, Arama!
;(Enter the Withering Zone — if this was the third quest started out of the three)
:Arama: Even this place has been corroded by Marana... Are you alright, Nara ?
:Paimon: Have some faith in , is very strong!
----
;(Investigate the tree — if this is the first quest started out of the three)
::Paimon: Is this... the Vasara Tree? Doesn't seem as lively as Paimon imagined...
::Arama: It must've been corroded by Marana... I'm so sorry, Arayama. We never realized that Marana's corruption had even reached here.
::Arama: When I was a teeny tiny seed, I heard stories about Aramuhukunda, Arayama, and Araji.
::Arama: Arayama didn't really like Nara, so he created the phantasmal barrier. He was happy to see the Nara's frustrated faces. But there was one Nara who saw through his Ararakalari.
::Arama: No matter how hard he tried, that Nara always found a way to break through. Then they slowly became friends.
::Paimon: Well, that's how some friendships form... What happened to Arayama in the end?
::Arama: At the end of the story, a great catastrophe occurred. He protected a lot of Aranara and Nara.
::Arama: Ah! No wonder his song could disperse all those illusions. It's because their game has ended.
:: How can we get the Vasoma Fruit?
::Arama: First, we must enter his dream to destroy Marana's lingering influence.
::Paimon: Wait a second... When you say "his dream," you mean that of the Vasara Tree?
::Arama: That's right. If you are ready, reach out your hand and enter his dream...
:: (Reach your hand out to the Vasara Tree...)
:::: (Reach your hand out to the Vasara Tree...)
::;(Enter the dream)
:::
:: I need a minute.
:::: I need a minute...
:::Arama: Alright. I'll wait for you.
;(Investigate the tree — if this is the second quest started out of the three)
::Paimon: Paimon didn't expect Marana's corruption to be here too...
::Arama: Nara is amazing. You drove Marana away easily this time, too.
::Arama: I'm so sorry, Arayama. We never realized that Marana's corruption had even reached here.
::Arama: When I was a teeny tiny seed, I heard stories about Aramuhukunda, Arayama, and Araji.
::Arama: Arayama didn't really like Nara, so he created the phantasmal barrier. He was happy to see the Nara's frustrated faces. But there was one Nara who saw through his Ararakalari.

::Arama: At the end of the story, a great catastrophe occurred. He protected a lot of Aranara and Nara.
::Arama: Ah! No wonder his song could disperse all those illusions. It's because their game has ended.
:: Do we need to enter the dream of the Vasara Tree this time too?
::Arama: Yes. We must erase all traces of Marana's influence.
::Arama: That's right. If you are ready, reach out your hand and enter his dream...
:: (Reach your hand out to the Vasara Tree...)
:::: (Reach your hand out to the Vasara Tree...)
::;(Enter the dream)
:::
:: I need a minute.
:::: I need a minute...
:::Arama: Alright. I'll wait for you.
;(Investigate the tree — if this is the third quest started out of the three)
::Paimon: Next up, our third Vasoma Fruit!
:: Let's do this for the Bija...
:: Let's do this for Rana...
::Arama: I'm so sorry, Arayama. We never realized that Marana's corruption had even reached here.
::Arama: When I was a teeny tiny seed, I heard stories about Aramuhukunda, Arayama, and Araji.

:::: (Reach your hand out to the Vasara Tree...)

:::
:: I need a minute...
:::: I need a minute...
:::Arama: Alright. I'll wait for you.
----
;(Explore the dream of the Vasara Tree)
:Arama: Luckily, we were not late. It would be bad if Marana had already corrupted the dream to its core.
:Arama: But the source of Marana's influence that's been corrupting this dream is somewhere here, in this bud.
:Arama: Then, we move on.
;(Approach the Claustroflora)
:Arama: We can make the obstacles go bye-bye using Arayama's song. Then we must find three Primeval Rosins to return here.
:Paimon: Can't you just... uh, "whoosh" in there, like how you broke out of the ground last time?
:Arama: No, I can't do that in here. Only Nara and Paimon can help me now. Thank you, Nara and thank you, Paimon.
:Paimon: We'll try our best to get that Vasoma Fruit!
:Arama: Go! Go!
;(Enter the unlocked area)
:Paimon: Huh, Paimon wasn't expecting the passage to be here...
:Arama: After Arayama had become friends with Nara, he would spend a lot of time brainstorming ideas for his mazes, so that they could have a good time together.
:Arama: Arayama would create mazes with his Ararakalari, and Nara would beat it. Arayama would then created something even grander and Nara would beat it even faster.
:Paimon: Well these Fungi don't look like Arayama's friends though...
:Arama: No. They need to go bye-bye.
;(Collect the first rosin)
:Paimon: It seems that we can now pass through the vines there! By the way, the plants here are so huge that they make Paimon feel really small...
:Arama: But Paimon is really small when compared with Nara .
:Paimon: Hmph! Paimon isn't large, but you aren't so big yourself!
:Arama: Yes. The forest is vast, and dreams are vast, so I am small.
:Arama: I see it now. Nara 's power is big and Nara 's courage is big. That's why Paimon is small, right?
:Paimon: Is that so...? Maybe... but also not really... Well, is strong, and there's no doubt about that one!
:Paimon: Ugh... Paimon can't figure it out, but something's definitely off there!
;(Approach the runes)
:Paimon: Wait, we've seen runes like these before...
:Arama: Yes! This is how we leave marks behind. It's a type of inscription!
:Paimon: I see... What does it say?
:Arama: "Haha, silly Nara. No way to solve my delicious puzzle. I look down upon you from above."
:Paimon: He's a really competitive sort, huh? Anyway, Paimon has a feeling that we're going up ourselves.
;(Open the Precious Chest)
:Paimon: Ooh, Paimon didn't expect to find any treasure chests here! This is great!
:Arama: Paimon likes treasures chests. So does Araminali. You will be good friends.
:Arama: He likes to put treasure into chests!
:Paimon: And that's what Paimon calls a reliable friend!
;(Collect the second rosin)
:Arama: Yay! There really are Primeval Rosins here!
:Paimon: Hee-hee! Well, we've solved tons of puzzles together before, y'know!
:Arama: Really? It must be hard work.
:Paimon: It's not easy for sure, but you're in this business for the treasure, y'know...
;(Collect the third rosin)
:Arama: Now we have three Primeval Rosins!
:Arama: Yes! Nara and Paimon are great!
:Arama: The terribly terrible Marana wants to infest this place. Once it's gone, the Vasara Tree will be able to bear Vasoma Fruits.
;(Entering the room with enemies)
:Paimon: Not Fungi again.
:Arama: Yes. Some Fungi are really afraid of Marana, so they hide in Vasara Tree's dreams.
:Arama: But if Marana gets inside the dreams as well, the Fungi will have nowhere else to hide. And they will get corrupted by Marana in the end. Marana is the worst
:Paimon: That's so terrible! Let's take 'em out real quick, !
;(After defeating the enemies)
:Arama: Yay! Marana, bad Fungi, don't come back.
:Arama: Okay, now the Vasara Tree should be able to bear Vasoma Fruits. Let's go now!
;(The Traveler leaves the dream)
----
;(Investigate the object — if this is the first quest started out of the three)
::Paimon: So this is...
::Arama: Yes. This is a Vasoma Fruit.
::Arama: It is the accumulation of the dreams and memories gathered by the Vasara Tree. It's a precious fruit that can help us restore our strength.
::Arama: A large amount of energy must be consumed for the Ashvattha Tree to produce a Bija. That is why we must offer Vasoma Fruits.
::Arama: Keep the Vasoma Fruit safe, Nara !
::Paimon: Hmm. You know what? Let's teach Arama the meaning of "treasure"!
::Paimon: Now then! "Treasure" refers to something very precious. This Vasoma Fruit contains lots of dreams and memories, and it can restore an Aranara's power. That makes it pretty rare and amazing, right?
::Paimon: For things like Vasoma Fruits that are rare and precious, we call them "treasure"!
::Arama: Ah, so this is what treasure means... I got it! Thank you, Paimon!
:: So, what's next?
:::Paimon: Hmm... Araja said that we'll need more than one Vasoma Fruit. That means we need to find other Ashvattha's Concourses, right?
:: Paimon!
:::Paimon: What are you thanking Paimon for...? Anyway, Araja said that we'll need more than one Vasoma Fruit. That means we need to find other Ashvattha's Concourses, right?
::Arama: That's right. I'll do my best to find them! So long, Nara and Paimon!
::Paimon: See you later, Arama!
:;(Obtain Vasoma Fruit)
;(Investigate the object — if this is the second quest started out of the three)
::Paimon: We now have the second Vasoma Fruit!
::Arama: Impressive! Nara is not afraid of Marana and even drove all the monsters away. No wonder you could defeat Vanagni!
::Paimon: Hehe, the many adventures we've been through aren't just for show, y'know?
::Arama: That's great! Then Nara and Paimon must have many memories and stories, right?
:: We do have a great many, yes.
:: Eh, we do have some.
::Arama: I see. If you don't mind, we'd love to hear Nara and Paimon's stories sometime.
::Paimon: Sure! We've shared our stories with others before, though it feels like so long ago...
::Paimon: Speaking of which, Paimon saw a giant purple tree in the distance while we were in the Vasara Tree's dream. Paimon's pretty sure we saw it in Vanarana, too. What was that?
::Arama: That's the very first Ashvattha's Tree of Dreams. Hmm, how should I put this...
::Arama: Dreams are like leaves in a stream. They soon float away with the water. If you want to keep a dream in place, you have to let it grow roots. That way, the dream won't drift away.
::Arama: Hmm... 
:: So Ashvattha's Tree of Dreams is like their "roots"?
:: So Ashvattha's Tree of Dreams keeps dreams from drifting away?
::Arama: Nara is smart. This tree keeps Aranara's dreams stable. Aranara can enter or exit dreams and are able to connect with the Vasara Tree.
::Paimon: So that's how it is. Do you mean, then, that the Vanarana in dreams can be maintained because of that tree?
::Arama: But I'm very concerned about Marana right now. We'll have to come up with a plan later.
::Arama: ...
::Arama: But let's get the Bija first! We need to help the friend of Nara , Paimon, and Arana!
::Paimon: Will you be looking for other Ashvattha's Concourses after this, Arama?
::Arama: Yes! So we'll see each other again for sure!
::Paimon: Stay safe, Arama!
::Arama: You too, Nara and Paimon!
:;(Obtain Vasoma Fruit)
;(Investigate the object — if this is the third quest started out of the three)
::Paimon: We got the third Vasoma Fruit! According to Araja, three Vasoma Fruits should be enough, right?
::Arama: Yes, that will do. Thank you, Nara and Paimon!
:: You're welcome.
:::Paimon: Still, you were the one helping us throughout, Arama. So why are you thanking us?
:: You've been the one helping us...
::Arama: Well... It's because you are helping Arana, and Arana is my friend. So, thank you.
::Arama: And Nara has helped Arayasa, Aradasa, and Arasudraka find the ancient songs. They're my friends too. Thank you for that, too.
::Arama: Finally, I'm so happy that I got to go on adventures with Nara and Paimon. So, thanks for that as well.
::Paimon: Paimon had a good time too! Thank you, Arama!
::Paimon: 
::Arama: That's a story from long, long ago. I wasn't even a seed then. It was a time when all Nara could see Aranara and not a single Aranara was afraid of Nara.
::Arama: Back then, Nara and Aranara helped each other. They played and sang together, just like Nara and I.
::Arama: Song gatherers like Arayasa originally learned their craft from Nara.
::Arama: Ashvattha's Concourses used to be where Nara and Aranara played together. But that was a long time ago.
::Arama: After the horrible, horrible catastrophe occurred, Vanarana was devastated, and the concourses were left desolate...
::Paimon: So that's what happened...
::Arama: Yes, and it's a very scary tale indeed. I'm lucky that they are not memories to me — only stories.
::Paimon: Don't worry! Things will get better. Right, ?
:: That's right.
:: I wouldn't be too sure...
:::Paimon: ...Are you tired, ?
::Arama: We've found Ashvattha's Concourses and obtained three Vasoma Fruits. Next, I've got to help prepare for Festival Utsava and call some of my friends back from the forest.
::Paimon: Best of luck, Arama! Paimon's super looking forward to the festival!
::Arama: Me too! I'll see you guys soon!
::Paimon: Bye, Arama!
