Ehll Tou 	Ah, hero, you've come at a good time. I have a query for you.
Ehll Tou 	As you know, I'm descended from Ratatoskr, and like her, I wish to fill the skies with beauteous songs.
Ehll Tou 	If I'm to do this, I must know historical events as if I've lived them. To that end, I would meet the great person who put an end to the Dragonsong War. Do you know where I might find this individual?
Ehll Tou 	...What? You are that great person? Heh, all this time I thought “hero” was your name!
Ehll Tou 	In any case, this makes things simpler. I want you to show me the key places where the war unfolded, and tell me tales about them!
Ehll Tou 	Lest you worry, I have Francel's permission to go to the city proper so long as I have company.
Ehll Tou 	So without further ado, let's begin with a visit to the Vault!
 	
Ehll Tou 	So this is the Vault, where the most wicked of men once resided... Vidofnir told us of the time she rescued a child who was thrown off the top.
Ehll Tou 	Doubtless these walls have witnessed much and more, but what about you? Do you have tales of your own about this place?
Ehll Tou 	So you fought and defeated these villains, and thereby ended the war. Which reminds me, I owe you thanks as well for the peace we now enjoy.
Ehll Tou 	Oh... I'm sorry to hear that. Long as we dragons live, we form the strongest of bonds with others. But by the same token, it makes us feel the pain of loss very keenly.
Ehll Tou 	Yet while some would fall into despair, you made the loss your strength and forged on. Yes, as befits a hero.
Ehll Tou 	If you do not wish to talk about it, then I won't press. A story unwillingly given wouldn't make for the kind of song I wish to share with others.
Ehll Tou 	Right, that will do for the Vault.
Ehll Tou 	Next, let us head to the place called Falcon's Nest. I would see the famous relief betokening peace between man and dragon.
 	
Hautdlong 	So that dragon wishes to learn about Ishgard...
 	
Ehll Tou 	So that is the relief... I've seen the artworks of men before, but I find it such a peculiar way to express one's feelings. Still, you can't be faulted for your artistry.
Ehll Tou 	But grand as it looks, the scent of sadness clings to it. The scent of blood. Vidofnir's, and others'...
Ehll Tou 	Whenever there is tragedy, our hearts can't help but be drawn to it. In this, it seems our kinds are the same.
Ehll Tou 	Now then...
Ehll Tou 	Have you noticed that we are being followed? I know not this person's intent, but let us return to the Firmament for now.
Hautdlong 	<gasp>
 	
Ehll Tou 	No more suspicious people about. Good.
Ehll Tou 	My thanks for acting as my guide. I feel as though I have a better understanding of the war now.
Ehll Tou 	Of course, this is just the beginning. If my songs are to be as resplendent as Ratatoskr's, I must learn more about men and their culture.
Hautdlong 	I-I would be glad to assist, if it please you!
Ehll Tou 	That scent... You're the one who was following us! If you mean us harm, be warned that this woman/man is a hero!
Hautdlong 	Oh, no! No! I-I wouldn't imagine doing you ill!
Hautdlong 	My name is Hautdilong. Ever since I read Lord Edmont's memoirs, I've wanted to befriend a dragon.
Hautdlong 	But I didn't have the slightest inkling how to go about it. So when I saw you with the savior of Ishgard, on the spur of the moment, I decided to follow.
Hautdlong 	You see, it's my dream to become a writer. Not just any writer, but one who chronicles this new age of peace between man and dragon. So please, won't you allow me to assist you?
Ehll Tou 	Well now, how very commendable! I wholeheartedly approve of your endeavor, and I see no reason to refuse you.
Ehll Tou 	Yes, we can teach each other the ways of our kind. And if you prove yourself useful, I shall credit you in my songs!
Hautdlong 	Th-Thank you!
Ehll Tou 	An unexpected but welcome development! I shall remain here and speak further with our new friend, but I hope to hear more of your tales again!
