Gagaruna 	So, are you ready to present yourself for the guildmaster's inspection?
 	
Gagaruna 	Master Hamon is among the greatest pugilists of our time. For long years the man ruled the bloodsands as the Holyfist, though he has since retired in favor of training aspiring fighters.
 	
Gagaruna 	You will find him overseeing his charges yonder. Go now and show to him the fighting spirit that burns within you!
 	
Gagaruna 	Oh? You do not wish to join us, after all? The decision is ultimately yours, but know that few would spurn the opportunity to train under Hamon Holyfist.
 	
Hamon 	Heh heh... Past time you got your arse back here. Well? What did the dancer have to say about my...proposition?
Hamon 	Eh!? Y-You're not my errand boy! There's no dancer─there never was! I'm not doing anything indecent, I swear to the gods!
 	
Hamon 	...What? You're here to enroll? Ohoho, well, why didn't you say so sooner!? In my capacity as guildmaster, I would be glad to give you a primer on the art of hand-to-hand combat!
Hamon 	Doubtless you already know this, but we pugilists fight with our fists and feet. While these don't deal as much damage as a blade, it hardly matters when you can land several blows for each swing of the sword. What we lack in destructive force, we more than make up for in speed and cunning. Under my guidance, not only will you master striking techniques...
 	
Hamon 	You'll also learn to string them together to deliver an endless flurry of blows! Only through such fierce combinations can a pugilist realize his potential! Yaaarrrgh!
Hamon 	<cough> <wheeze> Crikey, I'm spent from all this talking. You ought to speak more, lass/son─it'd give me a chance to catch my breath. But where was I?
Hamon 	Ah, right. Joining the guild. Before you do so, I must warn you that the path of the pugilist is long and arduous. Do you believe you've got what it takes to go the distance? Be honest with yourself, now!
 	
Hamon 	Yes, you have fighting spirit─I can see it in your eyes. I see no reason to deny you a place in these halls. Welcome to the guild, lass/son.
 	
Hamon 	To help you on your way, I'll add some names to your hunting log─opponents that you might hone your skills against.
Hamon 	And so as to make a budding pugilist of you, here's your very own pair of hora. They're a tad old and rusted, but that'll serve to make you look meaner, I reckon.
Hamon 	Now, I have a mind to assign you your first lesson. Arm yourself with your weapons, and let me know when you're ready to begin.
 	
Hamon 	Eh!? You are...shockingly honest, lass/son. 'Tis truly a shame you feel unready─I happen to like frankness in my charges.
Quest complete.	Quest complete.
