* “Who are you? Oh wait, that's right. You're (Name). / It's not that I forgot about you or anything, it's just that I'm really bad with names.”

#### 3 Stars

* “As you explore today, listen for the sounds that the birds make in the trees. Their songs are beautiful!”

* “Ever wondered about the things I have on my head? They are horns. Actual horns. / They don't actually have a use. Oracle says they are a blessing. I think they are more like a curse!”

* “It means something to me that you like talking to me so much. I think of you as a friend, (Name).”

* “The ring on my neck bears a deep meaning to me, I think. / Funny thing is, I don't actually know where it came from, but every time I touch it, it gives me this warm and fuzzy feeling. / It must mean something, right?”

* “You must have lots of friends, (Name). After all, you're so likable and approachable!”

#### 5 Stars

* “You know, I have tried to get rid of my horns, many times. / But every time I have managed to break them off or get a piece out of them, the next morning the pieces have vanished into thin air and the broken pieces have grown back. / It’s strange. There must be magic involved, right?”

* "Remember not to work too hard today, (Name)!
