Nanamo Ul Namo 	Profit... The thought never even crossed my mind.
Nanamo Ul Namo 	But standing about lamenting my naivety will not do anyone any good. I shall consider my lesson learned, and press on.
Nanamo Ul Namo 	[Player Name]─are you perchance acquainted with any successful merchants? If my attempt at philanthropy is obliged to reap a profit, it would seem wise to consult someone with a knack for business.
Nanamo Ul Namo 	Hm... Ordinarily, I would not trust any agent of the East Aldenard Trading Company─but if you hold this Hancock fellow in high esteem, I am content to be led by you. You may repay my faith by journeying to distant Kugane and speaking with him on my behalf.
Nanamo Ul Namo 	Eager though I am to visit those shores, I have not the leisure for a lengthy sea voyage. Now, assuming you will travel as adventurers are wont to do, I shall await your report by the aetheryte in Ul'dah. A fair journey to you, [Player Name]─and a swift one, if you please.
 	
Hancock 	[Player Name]! To what do I owe the pleasure? Or are you here on business?
Hancock 	...I beg your pardon? Her Grace the sultana would have my opinion on how best to invest the wealth of Ul'dah?
Hancock 	My dear [Player Name]... I have you to thank for this...recognition, I am sure. And I am flattered that you came to me. Truly flattered.
Hancock 	But why settle for a lowly apprentice, when you could have the master! Upon matters of profit, there is no living soul better-qualified to advise Her Grace than Chairman Lolorito─a man whose morning “exertions” are said to fill his garderobe with gold!
Hancock 	I should be happy to arrange a meeting for you...say, at the Scions' former headquarters in Thanalan? The Waking Sands would seem a suitably neutral venue for negotiations, don't you think? Fare you well, [Player Name], and may your dealings prove fruitful!
Hancock 	You will not find a shrewder merchant than Chairman Lolorito. Would that I could be present to witness the back-and-forth of your coming negotiations!
 	
Nanamo Ul Namo 	Welcome back, [Player Name]. Did your merchant friend have any useful advice to share?
Nanamo Ul Namo 	...With Lolorito!? And you agreed to this!?
Nanamo Ul Namo 	I am well aware of his standing in the field of business. But I had hoped to keep the Monetarists at arm's length, and him in particular...
Nanamo Ul Namo 	...Nay. I cannot live in fear of the man. I must learn how to treat with him if I am to rule Ul'dah effectively.
Nanamo Ul Namo 	Very well! I will meet with Lolorito. Let us go on ahead to the Waking Sands, and prepare for his coming.
 	
Nanamo Ul Namo 	So this is where the Scions first congregated... I have heard many tales, but never had occasion to visit.
Nanamo Ul Namo 	To work, then. The hour of the meeting draws near, and I would gather my thoughts. Pray see to it that we have the appointed room to ourselves.
 	
Nanamo Ul Namo 	<sigh> I fear it will be many years before I feel comfortable taking part in such negotiations.
Nanamo Ul Namo 	But I shall not complain. We have piqued Lolorito's interest and secured his invaluable expertise.
Thank you, [Player Name]. I could not have done it without you.
