Thancred 	If it is indeed the Eulmoran Army, we may soon have to contend with Ran'jit again...which may prove problematic, even for you.
 	
Ryne 	If only I hadn't been caught...
 	
Urianger 	With our enemies fast approaching, time is of the essence. We must needs accomplish our mission with all possible haste.
Urianger 	Of the two remaining bearers of the relics, the Nu Mou are the nearer. We shall seek them out next.
Urianger 	Among the fae folk, they bear the distinction of having abided in these lands since before the Flood. They are also the friendliest to men, and have served me faithfully whensoever I have called upon them. Indeed, they are the source of much of the knowledge I have acquired in my time here.
Urianger 	The path leadeth past my dwellings. Let us away.
 	
Urianger 	Past yonder cliff lieth Pla Enni, home of the Nu Mou.
Urianger 	The others have gone ahead to scout the way. Come, let us follow.
 	
Urianger 	If the path striketh thee as precipitous, 'tis because it was once a mountain trail.
Urianger 	For where the lake now lieth, there was a valley, in whose midst thrived the city of Voeburt. 'Twas only when the Fuath came, in the wake of the Flood, that the settlement was drowned.
Urianger 	We stand now upon its former outskirts. Grazing lands where shepherds once tended their flocks.
Urianger 	Though one cannot help but feel a pang of loss when faced with such a spectacle, one can scarcely blame the fae folk for so altering the land.
Urianger 	The blame for that lieth rightly with the Light─a force terrible enough to bring an entire civilization to its knees. An entire world. That it should have been allowed to rise up unchecked is the greater regret.
Urianger 	Yet, in spite of all the tragedy which surroundeth me, full glad am I for the chance to be here.
Urianger 	'Twas these hands which brought together the Warriors of Darkness and Minfilia, lest thou forget.
Urianger 	Therefore, even were there no Eighth Umbral Calamity to forestall, it seemeth only right that I strive to deliver the First from its doom.
Urianger 	Only right, I say, though such words ill convey the strength of my resolve.
Urianger 	In truth, I can no more ignore the plight of this world than I can choose to stop breathing. And thus do I labor─for those we have lost. For those we can yet save.
Urianger 	The coming struggle promiseth to test us to our limits, but so long as we stand together, I doubt not but that we shall prevail.
Pixiea03313 	Aha! Mortals, just as we thought!
Urianger 	Hast thou business with us?
Pixiea03313 	Business? Ha! Nothing so boring! We smelled you coming, and thought we'd come to play!
Urianger 	They do not appear to be pixies of Lydha Lran.
Urianger 	Mine apologies, but we are in some haste. Mayhap another day.
Pixiea03313 	Ohhh, in some haste, are you? Then allow me to hasten you on your way! Tee hee hee!
Urianger 	Teleportation magick. For a mercy, we were not sent far from our course.
Urianger 	Should the pixies find us again, however, they will most assuredly repeat the trick.
Urianger 	We have not the time to waste. Let us avail ourselves of an enchantment I have learned.
Urianger 	“Fae cloak,” 'tis called─a most ingenious magick which rendereth one invisible to fae folk, albeit briefly.
 	
Pixiea03313 	Oh, no you don't! Back you go, tee hee hee!
 	
Urianger 	I shall cast the enchantment upon thee. Under its aegis, thou art to make thy way past the pixies and rejoin our comrades.
Urianger 	Know, however, that the enchantment shall suffice to veil thee and thee alone. Be not tempted to employ a mount, as it will only serve to give thy presence away.
 	
Urianger 	I shall cast the enchantment upon thee once more. The effect is quick to fade, so thou must needs be swift.
 	
Pixieb03313 	Hee hee, found you! Aaand away you go!
 	
Pixiec03313 	You've nothing to fear, mortal! I'm not like the other pixies.
Pixiec03313 	I'm WORSE! Ahahaha! Better luck next time!
 	
Ryne 	We lost sight of you. Is everything all right?
 	
Thancred 	I assumed you were right behind us. What took you so long?
Thancred 	I see... Yes, I'd say that's a valid excuse for lateness. You are hereby forgiven.
Thancred 	In other good news, the Nu Mou village lies just through here. We'll enter as soon as Urianger deigns to join us.
Tyr Nee 	Ah! Ahhh! Mortals! Mortals are here! Lots of them!
Thancred 	I thought you said the Nu Mou were men's best friends. The poor thing was beside itself with fear.
Urianger 	'Twas beside itself, perhaps...but not with fear.
Wyd Aenc 	This is unacceptable! Unacceptable, I tell you! To have so many mortals appear at once...
Wyd Aenc 	It's more excitement than we can bear!
Urianger 	Greetings, Elder Wyd Aenc, Tyr Nee. It hath been a while.
Urianger 	Pray forgive my brevity, but time is against us. We are come to borrow the stone scepter of the Nu Mou.
Wyd Aenc 	Th-The stone scepter? Then...you mean to lift the seal over Lyhe Ghiah!?
Wyd Aenc 	That is unacceptable! Unacceptable, I tell you! If the king is set free, none here will be safe!
Wyd Aenc 	Unlike our fae cousins, we Nu Mou have called this land our home since time immemorial. Leaving is unthinkable.
Wyd Aenc 	Thus did full many of us lay down our lives to seal away our king when they were corrupted by light! If we do as you ask, our sacrifice would have been in vain!
Wyd Aenc 	But then you'll only become another Lightwarden! It changes nothing!
Wyd Aenc 	Easily said for one who hasn't experienced the king's wrath!
Wyd Aenc 	S-Such discourtesy! It's unacceptable! Unacceptable, I tell you!
Urianger 	Honored Elder, pray believe me when I say that this woman/man is possessed not only of the strength required to vanquish the king, but of something still more valuable: a means to resist the resultant corruption. Indeed, s/he hath already laid low the Lightwarden of Lakeland, all without succumbing to the influence of its light.
Urianger 	She/He is yet a stranger to this land, 'tis true, but s/he harboreth the selfsame desire to see the sin eaters eliminated as we do.
Urianger 	Wilt thou not lend us thy hand, that we might see thy beloved home restored to its former glory?
Wyd Aenc 	Hmmm... You have always done right by us, Urianger. If you have placed your faith in this woman/man, then so shall we.
Wyd Aenc 	As you say, we want nothing more than to be rid of the sin eaters.
Wyd Aenc 	Be that as it may, this is not a decision to be made lightly. We require time to deliberate. A turn of the moon, perhaps...
Thancred 	We don't have a turn of the moon. Unless we want to debate this with the Eulmoran Army.
Urianger 	Elder...given all that is at stake, I cannot well expect thee simply to roll over, and acquiesce to our request.
Urianger 	But even now, a powerful foe draweth near, and I fear I must beseech thee to hasten thy deliberations, that thou mightst fetch us the scepter while there is yet time to use it.
Tyr Nee 	R-Roll over!? F-Fetch!? Ahhh! Ahhhhhh!
Wyd Aenc 	You know full well that naught gives us greater pleasure than to render aid to men!
Wyd Aenc 	You know full well, yet you speak the words of power regardless? It's unfair! Unfair, I tell you!
Wyd Aenc 	<sigh> In happier times, it was our honor to assist mortals in need and receive rewards befitting our deeds.
Wyd Aenc 	Since the Kingdom of Voeburt fell, however, we've been starved of man's patronage. After so many years of deprivation, it is...difficult to ignore such an earnest entreaty.
Wyd Aenc 	Very well, Urianger. I promise to give you as swift an answer as I may.
Wyd Aenc 	In return, I ask that you and yours remain here the while, and bestow upon us your patronage. Is this arrangement agreeable?
