 It's me! Goooood morning, Viet-... Mulana!
You'll get messages from me here, like this one.

 I can see where you are using your tablet's camera. I'mma
teach you the ABCs of adventuring. I'm such a gentleman.

 Try wandering around aboveground a bit before entering the ruins.
It'll be good practice.

 Don't leave me hangin'. Read your messages.

 Already out shopping, huh?

 You can use some items by equipping them and pressing the Item button. And there's more out there than run-of-the-mill Handscanners.

 The ruins hold key treasures, weird items you gotta put someplace, all kinds of stuff. Bring them to me; I'll tell you what they are.

 If I can, that is.

 Have you bought the map app from Nebur yet?

 The app is used to manage your maps. But you gotta collect the maps yourself. The maps of the ruins are hidden in each site.

 Maps for above ground and the La-Mulana ruins? I got those. Come and get 'em if you want 'em.

 Load apps from the app menu on your tablet.
I've already loaded the software for you to read my messages.

 Make sure to keep my app loaded at all times.
M'kay?

 That big-ass tent on the hill is where Alsedana lives.

 Alsedana was one of the Four Philosophers.
They headed up the sealing of La-Mulana, and he was their top guy.

 Now he's old, and lives in peace and quiet.
Don't forget to go say hi.

 That there's one of my village's famous Hot Springs.
It'll buck ya right up. Restores yer health, too.

 Go to town with it, but take yer clothes off first!

 Huh?
Uwahahaha.

 Hey now.
Leave my statue the hell alone.

 That there's the ruins of La-Mulana.
Back in the day, yer dad explored, and, well, destroyed the place.

 Reconstruction is ongoing, but keep going down and you'll get to the Mausoleum of the Giants, where monsters've been spotted.

 Don't go anywhere weird and you should be fine.

 Goddammit, I said to investigate the place, not to jack it all up...

 I'm tryin' to "tourist" the place up, you know...

 You get the Shell Horn?
I mean, it is one of the artifacts on display in the ruins, so...

 Whatever, I'm such a gentleman, I'll give it to ya anyway.

 The Shell Horn lets you know once you've solved one of the ruins' mysteries with this sound that sounds kinda like "Mystery soooolved!"

 Get stuck in a trap, and it makes a sound kinda like "That's a traaaap!".

 Uh-oh... you opened the treasure chest of the Holy Grail?

 Hm. That's a precious display item, you know...
But it's necessary for the investigation, so whaddya gonna do, huh?
I'm a pretty laid-back guy, aren't I?

 If you have the Holy Grail, you can warp places.
It's awesome.

 You know the Holy Grail Tablet near my castle? The thing used for saving. You can warp to places where those are located.

 It's basically a special item you can use to come hang out with me!

 That's a treasure called an Ankh Jewel.

 It can destroy the Ankh where the Guardians sleep.
The Guardians are big-ass, scary-ass monsters in ruins.

 Eg-Lana's a ruin. Which means there are Guardians in Eg-Lana, too.

 These guys are hardcore, so be prepared before you go pickin' a fight!

 This is Fobos.

 I just hacked your tablet so that we can communicate.

 When investigating the ruins of La-Mulana, I picked up some information on the Eg-Lana ruins as well.

 They're built similarly so I'll fill you in on what I can.
