## General Dialogue

If there is a seasonal token at the end of the dialogue, it means the player can only see that dialogue during that season.

### Strangers

**Kai**:"Do I have any scales stuck in my teeth? Sorry, I just got done having a fish lunch."
**Kai**:"I should coil up with a good book later. Maybe an adventure novel? Or something with maps in it."
**Kai**:"Hey, is my shoe untied? Hahah! Made you look!"
**Kai**:"I could stand outside the tavern all night. The aroma of freshly cooked food is irresistible. And the horses are cute!"
**Kai**:"Ah, the spring sun. I could bask in its warmth all day - if I didn't overheat, that is.  "
**Kai**:"Enjoying the spring weather? The world is never as lovely in any other season. "
**Kai**:"The summer sun burns hot in Sun Haven. It reminds me of home.  "
**Kai**:"I hope you know how lucky you are to live so close to the ocean. Beaches are best enjoyed in the summer.  "
**Kai**:"Fish from the distant Magma Isles can be found in Sun Haven's summer waters. Have I ever traveled to the Magma Isles? Can't seem to recall...  "
**Kai**:"Here's a tip for dealing with the hottest hours of the day: take a nap!  "
**Kai**:"Claude doesn't seem to enjoy the summer heat. Strange - I thought Humans didn't mind the sunlight?  "
**Kai**:"Ah, the tree leaves change colors in the fall? Is that a Sun Haven thing, or does it happen all over the Four Regions?  "
**Kai**:"Everything is so... orange. This could take some getting used to.  "
**Kai**:"There seem to less travelers on the road these days. I hope Mari and Ronald's inn business doesn't suffer.  "
**Kai**:"Fall is a time for large dinners and careless evenings.  "
**Kai**:"I had read books that described the colors one would see in fall, though to see it with my own eyes is another thing entirely.  "
**Kai**:"I must say, snow isn't the funnest thing to slither through.  "
**Kai**:"Never get into a snowball fight with an opponent who has four arms. Just ask Topi and Pod how it turned out for them!  "
**Kai**:"Everyone seems to be in such jolly spirits. Is that what winter means in Sun Haven? It's beautiful.  "
**Kai**:"They say no two snowflakes are alike - but I wonder, how can they tell? Snowflakes are so tiny!  "
**Kai**:"The Naga of the ancient world wouldn't have gotten by in winter very well. Thankfully for the Naga of today, we have warm clothes.  "
### Friends

**Kai**:"Having a good day, [**Player**]?"
**Kai**:"Always remember, life is here to be lived!"
**Kai**:"Hm... should I have fish... or fish for dinner tonight?"
**Kai**:"Sun Haven's streets are beginning to feel familiar to me."
**Kai**:"Ah, I just remembered... Oh, no, there it goes. I forgot again!"
### Dating

**Kai**:"If it isn't [**Player**]. We really *must* keep running into each other like this. "
**Kai**:"Sorry, no time to talk right now! Hah, I kid. I always have time for you, [**Player**]. "
**Kai**:"You look hungry, [**Player**]. Come to my cave, I'll cook you a seared fish. What, too busy right now? Ah, another time, then. "
**Kai**:"You were the first face I saw when I woke on the beach. Now you're the last face I see in my mind before I drift off to sleep. "
**Kai**:"I read a book with a hero in it who reminded me of you, only they were a dragon. Still, I'd say you two were fairly similar. "
### Married

**Kai**:"I read once that spring was the season of newly blossomed love. Well, [**Player**], what do you think?"
**Kai**:"I picked you a spring daisy this morning, but I think I lost it..."
**Kai**:"Let's go to the tavern for dinner sometime. My treat! Well, wait, let me see how much gold I have right now... oh, um. Maybe *your* treat?"
**Kai**:"Sometimes I catch myself staring out at the ocean, thinking of the world. Then I realize - *you* are my world, [**Player**]."
**Kai**:"Busy today as usual, my love?"
**Kai**:"I'm thinking about getting a new tattoo. What about your name, in a heart? Only kidding!!"
**Kai**:"With you, something as trivial as sitting and watching the leaves fall would be a welcome way to pass the time.  "
**Kai**:"The colors of fall are beautiful and vibrant - yet none of them compare to you, [**Player**].  "
**Kai**:"Watching the children play in the piles of leaves fills me with a strange sense of longing - for my own childhood, I think.  "
**Kai**:"Fancy a stroll through the colored foliage with me sometime, my love?  "
**Kai**:"The fall air really puts me to sleep. Care to huddle together for warmth?  "
**Kai**:"You know, my seaside cave is nice and cool...  "
**Kai**:"What's wrong, [**Player**]? Is my sizzling body making you sweat? Or is that just... heat exhaustion? Maybe drink some water...  "
**Kai**:"There's something so nostalgic about breathing in hot, dry air.  "
**Kai**:"A dip in the water is a good way to cool down from the heat. Maybe I'll show you how it's done, love.  "
**Kai**:"I heard the Northern Region is cold and icy. Yuck, I'll stick to Sun Haven.  "
**Kai**:"It's said that in winter, lovers share cups of hot chocolate. What a romantic, and delicious, tradition.  "
**Kai**:"Oh, let me guess! You need help keeping warm?  "
**Kai**:"Winter isn't my favorite, but I'm finding it easy to adapt to. It certainly won't keep me from being with you, [**Player**].  "
**Kai**:"I'm looking for a sprig of mistletoe. What for, you ask? Oh, no reason!  "
**Kai**:"How about we take a nice, long winter nap together?  "

### Birthday Responses

If the player gives Kai a gift on their birthday, they will get one of these generic responses based on the level of the gift. Kai's birthday is the 17th of Winter.

**Kai**:"You thought I wanted this for my birthday? Oh dear.."
**Kai**:"Hey, not... bad! Not great! But not bad, either. It's a decent birthday gift."
**Kai**:"Who told you this is what I wanted for my birthday?! Thank you, [**Player**]."
**Kai**:"I don't know what shocks me more, that you got me the perfect birthday gift... or that I remembered my birthday in the first place!"
### Memory Loss Potion

The Memory Loss Potion is an item that, when gifted to a Romanceable NPC, will cause the world to forget all about the relationship they have with the player. When used on a Romanceable NPC while married, the Memory Loss Potion will only reduce their hearts to ten (the platonic relationship cap), while getting a divorce at Town Hall will reduce it to 8.
