;(Talk to Atiyah)
:Atiyah: Join the Eremites and embrace a wonderful new life! Come, friend, would you like to hear about the Eremites?
: Uh...
:Atiyah: Oh, come on, just listen up a bit. The Eremites is a good community to be a part of! We're free! We're united! Friendly, too!
:Atiyah: And if you join up with us, you'll get the chance to fleece those tree-dwellers of their fat wallets. The Akademiya's researchers are a rich lot, and they're not ones to default on their payments either!
: I'm already in the Adventurers' Guild.
: I've already got a ton of commissions on my plate.
:Atiyah: Eh? You're with the Adventurers' Guild? I mean... That's no obstacle, is it? C'mon, everyone's got a side hustle nowadays — and it's not like adventurers and mercenaries are really that different, you get what I mean?
: I think they're pretty different.
:Atiyah: Well, we've got good food here too! Meat and fish are regulars on the menu!
:Atiyah: And if you're lucky, you might even get to meet Dehya, the Flame-Mane! Now I... *cough*
: Calm down, get some water.
: You've had some practice with this pitch, huh?
:Atiyah: *cough* Sorry, sorry, I spoke too quickly there.
:Atiyah: I haven't had anyone listen to my pitch for a while now, so I got a little excited there...
:Atiyah: Still, are you really not even going to consider joining us?
: Not at the moment.
: I really do have my hands full with Adventurers' Guild business.
:Atiyah: Alright, if you say so...
: Are you always recruiting people here?
:Atiyah: Yes. I mean, it is my job, after all. Nowadays, able hands are in short supply everywhere — and nowhere is that shortage more acute than in the mercenary industry.
:Atiyah: *sigh* Well, I guess I can just tell you. We've got people, that's for sure, but our line of work is very dangerous. Things like escorting people are on the easier side — it's just tiring at most.
:Atiyah: But if your work involves researchers, then it's like putting your head on the block. You'll be blessed to come back in one piece...
:Atiyah: After coming back from these missions, most of our members have to take at least ten days to half a month off... So we always need people to fill in those gaps.
:Atiyah: Sumeru's a big place with lots of researchers, so we've got new work coming in every day. We're basically working round the clock at this point.
:Atiyah: So yeah, we need to get some new people, or we're going to buckle under the load.
: In that case, have you managed to find anyone who's on board?
:Atiyah: You mean here in this village? Hahaha... Nope. Not a one.
:Atiyah: Actually, I should correct myself. It's more that the people I'd love to have join don't want to, and that I wouldn't take those who want to join.
:Atiyah: If you don't believe me, why don't we take a quick walk about together? Who knows, you might just be convinced by the time we're done.
:Atiyah: ...Kidding, kidding. I know you said you didn't want to join, and I won't force you. I'd just... y'know, like some company while I have a little walk.
: I can go with you, no problem.
:Atiyah: Hehe, thanks a lot. Let me see... Let's go look for Sania first. She's usually free in the day, but at night... Well, she's usually busy having important discussions with Jabari.
;(Talk to Sania in the morning)
:Sania: How worrying...
:Atiyah: Good afternoon, Sania! What are you buying?
:Sania: I've told you many times before, Atiyah, Jabari isn't interested in joining you, nor do I want him to go become a mercenary. I'm not going to help you convince him.
:Atiyah: Well, that's a shame. With his culinary skills, Jabari'd do really well with us, and your family's financial standing would be improved greatly, too.
:Atiyah: And hasn't he said before that he'd like to go out and find work? If that's what he really wants, who better to recommend work than an old friend, eh?
:Sania: Don't take anything he says seriously. He'll tell you that one day, and change his mind the next.
:Sania: In the end, he just can't bear to leave me here alone in the village... and I couldn't bear to see him slogging away by himself, either.
:Sania: What's more, you're asking that he risk his neck out there as a mercenary! Even if he wanted to go, I'd stop him for sure.
:Sania: Let's just leave this topic be. I've got things to buy — go bother someone else.
:Atiyah: Phew... Well, alright then. You see, traveler? This is what work looks like for me every day.
:Atiyah: Next up on my list of people to meet is Fodil. He was one of us once... but he quit.
:Atiyah: Sure would be nice if I could convince him to make a bit of a comeback...
;(Talk to Fodil)
:Fodil: Atiyah... Not you again.
:Atiyah: Hehe, persistence is one of our virtues, you know.
:Fodil: Well, then you should know that sticking to principles is mine.
:Atiyah: Come on now, brother...
:Fodil: I've left the organization already. Don't call me that.
:Atiyah: Right, alright, Fodil. You sure you're not considering coming back at all?
:Atiyah: I know that some of us can be a bit... reckless, but most of us are perfectly law-abiding citizens!
:Fodil: I've said this before, Atiyah. I'm not going back.
:Fodil: The things you speak of, I've already confirmed them with my own two eyes.
:Fodil: Perhaps not all the Eremites are a lawless lot, and not every Eremite enjoys kicking those who have already gone down...
:Fodil: But ill deeds spread, Atiyah. All it takes is one person to act like the law is merely a suggestion, and everyone else will be affected by them.
:Fodil: One person influences another, and if that group keeps acting a certain way, they will influence yet more people...
:Fodil: I'm sure you know what that means better than I do, Atiyah.
:Fodil: It is all too easy to do evil in such an environment.
:Atiyah: ...
:Fodil: You wish for me to return... just as I wish for you to leave.
:Fodil: Perhaps from your perspective, the Eremites are not an evil organization even if they're not exactly honorable... But you can't always live in shades of gray.
:Fodil: This is just a word of advice. You may do with it as you will.
:Atiyah: I know, chief.
:Fodil: Alright. If you do leave and need a new line of work, I will help you.
: Are you alright?
:Atiyah: Heh, well, there's no way I can win an argument with Fodil, I guess.
:Atiyah: What's next? Right, right, let's rest a bit. I gotta say, my throat's getting tired after all that.
;(Approach Ayten)
:Ayten: Hey, Uncle Atiyah! You still asking people to join the Eremites?
:Atiyah: Why, if it isn't Ayten. Did you tell your mother you were coming here?
:Ayten: I did! She's working, so I went to go play with Karima.
:Karima: Hello, Uncle Atiyah!
:Ayten: Uncle Atiyah, what do you think? About the stuff we talked about last time.
:Ayten: I've been working out this whole time, and I've even been training with Karima.. She's never gonna catch me again in a race!
:Karima: That one time doesn't count! It was because I didn't eat enough for lunch that day!
:Ayten: ...Anyway, I've been following the training plan you gave me...
:Ayten: So let me take the test again! Let's see if I'm good enough to join the Eremites!
: Ah, so this is what you meant by...
: ...Someone who wants to join?
:Atiyah: Ahem! Alright then, Ayten. As a member of the Eremites, I will conduct the test once again!
:Ayten: Alright! C'mon, Karima, you join in too. Let's do this together!
:Karima: But I don't wanna join the Eremites... I just want to stay here in the village and protect everyone...
:Karima: But it would be nice to get Uncle Atiyah to test my skills. I mean, I did ask Miss Candace for advice on how to train before!
:Ayten: Wait, what? When did you...
:Atiyah: Hahaha! Good, good, that's the spirit!
:Atiyah: Alright, Ayten, stop pouting. If we get the chance, I'll bring you to go get some pointers from Dehya! How does that sound?
:Ayten: Really!? You'd do that?
:Atiyah: We Eremites don't lie, kiddo.
:Atiyah: But before we begin the test, let's have this traveler show us the expected standards.
: Wait, I'm involved in this now?
::Atiyah: ...I haven't had the chance to do any demonstrations before. I couldn't just run around doing those and leave these kids here by themselves. That would be too dangerous... Anyway, thanks for your help, Traveler.
: Don't you usually do the demonstrations?
::Atiyah: Oh, come on, do I look like I had time to demonstrate between my job and looking out for these kids?
::Atiyah: I'm counting on you, Traveler.
:Atiyah: *cough* Anyway, our Traveler here's a very capable adventurer. I had to do a lot to get to come and give you a demonstration.
:Atiyah: Better watch carefully now.
:Ayten: Alright!
:Karima: An adventurer, huh? As in, someone from the Adventurers' Guild?
:Atiyah: No matter whether you're a mercenary or a guard, you will always wind up coming across situations in which retreat is the best option.
:Atiyah: When that happens, we often live by the principle that the quicker we can get away, the better.
:Atiyah: Thank you, Traveler. Now, let us quickly demonstrate... How to make a swift retreat!
:Atiyah: Here's our starting point. Now then, please demonstrate.
:Paimon: Basically, we just need to get over there as quickly as possible, right?
:Paimon: Honestly, Paimon's surprised by how easy that is...
----
;(Talk to Atiyah, Ayten, or Karima after completing the demonstration)
:Ayten: Wow!
:Karima: You're... so fast...
:Atiyah: Very good! You were quick... and more importantly, very steady.
:Atiyah: Watch and learn, kids.
:Atiyah: Don't insist on pushing through every dangerous situation you get in. If you must retreat, retreat decisively!
:Atiyah: That means you especially, Ayten.
:Ayten: I know, I know...
:Atiyah: Good. Let's move on to the next step... It's time for some live combat demonstration.
:Ayten: Ooh, awesome! My dad carved me a wooden sword that I carry with me. What about you, Karima?
:Karima: I do have a small bow, though my mother only gave me arrows without tips...
:Atiyah: Hahaha! That's alright! You have a sword and a bow, and your boundless courage. That's all anyone really needs to begin their adventures.
:Atiyah: But remember not to run around aimlessly when you're outside the village. Stick with me and the Traveler at all times.
: You're really taking them outside the village?
: We're going out with two kids in tow...
:Atiyah: Oh, don't you worry. I've scouted that area beforehand. There's just a bunch of sickly scorpions out there. They barely retain any offensive capabilities, so we should be alright.
:Atiyah: And whatever happens, the two of us will be there!
: So you're counting me in now?
: I don't remember agreeing to this...
:Atiyah: Oh, come on, we're already here. You know, "in for one Mora, in for a thousand" and such! I'll make sure to pay you according to the Guild's regulations!
:Atiyah: Well, buckle up, kids. We're heading off!
:Ayten: Woohoo!
:Karima: I must admit... I'm a bit nervous.
;(Approach the marked location)
:Atiyah: These scorpions are still here... Just as I thought.
:Atiyah: Well, let's hit 'em hard, Traveler. Watch and learn, kids!
;(After defeating the Scorpions)
:Ayten: Those scorpions are huge! Uh, should we really get any closer to them?
:Karima: I shot them with my bow, but they didn't even flinch...
:Karima: But you... you defeated them so easily...
: Well, that's many years of training for you.
: You two are still young.
:Karima: But... Miss Candace said I'd improved...
:Atiyah: Chin up, Karima! You'll become strong eventually — but you've got to take it all one day at a time.
:Atiyah: You too, Ayten. If you keep training hard like this, it's only a matter of time before we'll let you in.
:Ayten: Ohh, if only I could get Miss Dehya to teach me...
:Karima: The next time I see Miss Candace, I'll get her to teach me more!
:Atiyah: Hahaha! That's the spirit!
: And in the end, you didn't get anyone to join.
: What about your job, then?
:Atiyah: *cough* Hey now, didn't they ever tell you not to harp on a man's private woes?
:Atiyah: We can talk about work later... and it's not as if my advertising has had no effect at all.
:Atiyah: Lots of young men and women have left the village to see the outside world after hearing what I had to say... even if they didn't really want to join us.
:Atiyah: Well, we can talk about that later. I have to bring these kids back to the village now. Their parents are probably at least a bit worried now that they've been out so long.
:Atiyah: Here's a little something for you, by the way. Thanks for coming all the way out here with me.
:Atiyah: *sigh* Now, how am I going to explain this to the rest of the Eremites when I go back for a debriefing...
:Ayten: Uh, Uncle Atiyah, you haven't given us our tests yet.
:Atiyah: That so? Ah, yes... yes. Let's go back to the village first, and then we'll do the test there.
