==Dialogue==
===Daytime===
:Linlang: Hello! Can I help you?
: About Rex Lapis' death...
:;(Available after completing Rite of Descension)
::Linlang: Impressive, wasn't it? Even in death, the gods pass in glory, unlike the surreptitious departure of mortals... I'm glad I was able to witness an event of such magnificence.
::Linlang: It's just a shame that I couldn't have met him, or talked to him about my dreams...
::Linlang: Ah, what I am saying? Sorry about that.
: You are...?
::Linlang: I am Linlang, the owner of Xigu Antiques.
::Linlang: I'm very sorry, but the shop is not open yet. If you want to browse the shop, please find me at Xigu Antiques later.
:: Tell me about Xigu Antiques.
::Linlang: A fellow antique collector, are you?
::Linlang: In that case, I do hope you will come to the store tonight.
::Linlang: Right now, though, I am taking my post-breakfast walk. Apologies.
: What are you doing?
::Linlang: Oh, I'm just taking a stroll nearby to relax. I'd like to admire the scenery one more time before the sun sets.
::Linlang: This land has remained at peace for a thousand years now. But sometimes, I wonder — how did the people who walked this land a thousand years ago feel?
::Linlang: I cannot know, yes, but our Lord certainly does — Rex Lapis, who has gently watched over this land for a millennium...
::Linlang: ...I wonder, has there been anyone at all who has been privy to his feelings across this long period?
: Goodbye.
::Linlang: Bye. It was a pleasure meeting you.
===Nighttime===
:Linlang: Welcome to my humble shop! We have some new items in store, if you would be so kind as to take a look at them.
: I'd like to buy some antiques.
::Linlang: Yes, please browse as you like. You'll find that our antiques here are worth every Mora.
:;(Opens Xigu Antiques shop menu)
: Hello.
::Linlang: Hello, I am Linlang, the owner of this store.
::Linlang: Do you see anything you like?
::Linlang: Please take as long as you need; there is plenty to see and no rush to choose.
:: Anything you would recommend?
::Linlang: Take a look at this piece of flint. It is a shard from the tip of the Geo Lord's polearm. Notice the ancient symbols written on there, with the masterful brushwork following the lines that naturally appear on the material's surface.
::Linlang: Or this fossilized wood. It is a runner from a primordial tree, and legend says that this tree was so gigantic its root system spread throughout the entire world.
::Linlang: You might also consider this bottle, which contains the venomous blood of an evil dragon that once wrought havoc on a neighboring land. Due to exposure to the air, the blood has now dried and turned to dust...
::Linlang: ...However, the venom is so strong that one pinch of it would suffice to take out all the strongest men in a village. Heh.
::Linlang: Beyond these, there are many other rarities and oddities in store, too. Feel free to peruse them at your leisure.
:: Sounds dubious to me...
::Linlang: Well, the value of an antique is whatever you make of it.
::Linlang: There is a saying: "An antique's credibility is born of its owner's credulity." It is one's belief in an item as a historical relic that imbues it with meaning.
::Linlang: By contrast, when you believe that an antique is fake, your denial of the item's value does not change the item in any way.
::Linlang: The fact is, the items themselves hold no value for my customers. It is the stories attached to the items that hold the real value.
::Linlang: There's another saying, how does it go... "As long as you have a good story to tell, you'll always find a way forward..." The same principle applies to antiques.
:: Do you have anything else?
:::Linlang: Well, take this chunk of rock, for example. Looks perfectly ordinary, but in fact it came from a star.
:::Linlang: A very long time ago, a star fell from the sky. The force of the impact when it hit the ground is what turned it this color on the outside.
:::Linlang: Hmm? What do you mean, looks like a regular chunk of ore?
:::Linlang: ...Wait, no, you're right, sorry. I grabbed the wrong one. This is just a regular chunk of ore.
:::Linlang: Ugh, must be the suppliers. They're always trying to sneak the odd dud into the mix... so frustrating...
:::Linlang: Please, take it off my hands would you? I never want to see it again.
::;(Obtain )
: Goodbye.
::Linlang: Goodbye. Come back any time.
==Event Dialogue==
===Lantern Rite===
;(Talk to Linlang during daytime)
:Linlang: Hi, I'm Linlang. I run an antiques shop called Xigu Antiques... How may I help you?
: Please tell me about the Lantern Rite.
::Linlang: There's an abiding sense of nostalgia in the air during the Lantern Rite... Normally I only get that feeling in my shop; I love it, it makes me feel so at home.
::Linlang: Lantern Rite is much more ancient than any of the antiques in my shop, though.
::Linlang: Antiquity has real value. I should know, I make my living off that fact. So make the most of this very precious time of year.
: Goodbye.
::Linlang: Please enjoy this special time filled with the splendor of antiquity.
===Moonlight Merriment===
;(Talk to Linlang during daytime)
:Linlang: Welcoming the bright moonlight to illuminate the adeptal path — what a romantic scene!
:Linlang: I should really start collecting some antiques related to the festival...
===The Exquisite Night Chimes===
;(Talk to Linlang during daytime)
:Linlang: Hi, I'm Linlang. I run an antiques shop called Xigu Antiques... How may I help you?
: About the Lantern Rite music festival...
::Linlang: There's usually a familiar sense of nostalgia in the air during the Lantern Rite, and it complements my store perfectly.
::Linlang: This year's Lantern Rite music festival, however, has brought along some new ideas.
::Linlang: People may become interested in music-related antiques, so I should probably read up on related legends too...
::Linlang: After all, every ancient object that has weathered the ages has a fascinating story to tell.
===Vibrant Harriers Aloft in Spring Breeze===
;(Talk to Linlang during daytime)
:Linlang: Hi, I'm Linlang. I run an antiques shop called Xigu Antiques... How may I help you?
: About kites...
::Linlang: They carry peoples' thoughts into the skies. Don't you think that's quite similar to how Xiao Lanterns work?
::Linlang: This year's theme is kites, which connects with the idea of those lanterns in interesting ways.
::Linlang: I wonder if there're any legends that also link the two... Should there be any link to ancient relics, that would make for a most captivating story.
===Iridescent Arataki Rockin' for Life Tour de Force of Awesomeness===
: 
::Linlang: Mm? An invitation? As in, a date?
::Paimon: Erm, no, this is about musical exchange! By the way, do you have any songs that you like? We can play them for you — just to show you we're legit, y'know?
::Linlang: I see... Well, I do have something in mind. I'll hum, and you play. How does that sound?
:: Sure, I'll give it a go.
::Linlang: I'm listening.
;(After performing)
:Linlang: My dear guest, it would be no exaggeration to compare your performance to an adeptal hymn.
:Linlang: When I was just starting in this line of work, I went to Minlin to purchase some ancient jade. On the way there, I heard music coming from Qingyun Peak.
:Linlang: I was so enraptured that I wondered if it might be the music of the adepti themselves, you know? Haha. Thank you — I thought I'd never get the opportunity to hear it again.
:Linlang: As for the music festival, I must say that I wouldn't call myself any kind of music enthusiast — I simply happen to like this tune. So forgive me if I must decline.
:Linlang: But allow me to let slip from my lips this tidbit of gossip: I believe Mingxing Jewelry's boss, Xingxi, is a closet fan of music. Perhaps you could ask her?
:Linlang: Last but not least, I wish you the best of luck with your festival.
;(Talk to Linlang again, optional)
: How was that?
:;(Same as After performing)
