Quest - The Lost Arcadia

Emil

Assuming everyone just heard what I did, I propose we burn down the vines.

 

Name

No, that's an awful idea, did you not hear what they said? forcing our way through will have dire consequences

 

Emil

Do you know how many “dire consequences” befall adventuring parties only for those “consequences” to be of no matter whatsoever? It’s a ruse, a lie, a fabrication. Besides, we dealt with sentries well enough. Are you willing to give in to a bit of overgrown vegetation?

 

Name

But That risk isn't necessary until we've exhausted all other options, though. Why risk any consequences, when someone in the group might know the answer?

 

Emerath Katou

Speaking of which, guys. I think I know the answer. But I don't know if we should be saying it. Why don't we have E.P. answer? The voice understood him binding the contract. I think it makes more sense to have him answer. Celestine, you enjoy our parrot friend. Why don't you talk to him? I can give you the answer if you want.

 

Celestine

Err... just because I am of cat does not mean I can do a speak of bird. Can anyone else do that? The Lady of Tsunderscarf maybe?

 

Emerath Katou

Well, I can talk to the bird. Unless someone else wants to. Let me know if anyone has any objections to me giving the answer to the... parrot.

 

Mysterious Lady N

Keep the bird quiet and out of this please? It was the cause of this mess. I'd rather take my own risks answering the puzzle. It's not like I don't know how...

 

Emerath Katou

Well we all need to agree, Lady N. Honestly though, why did the voice respond to the parrot and not Nora? Nora had already said no. But the parrot said yes... I think. Which means the voice understands the parrot and not us. You seem like a logical sort. So let's think about this logically. If you speak to the voice, even if it's the correct answer, it might be no better than speaking in gibberish. What say you?

 

Emil

While I agree that it is the bird's fault we are now in this mess, I do not agree with giving it the duty of making sure it says the right answer to this riddle. If we are going with this plan instead of merely burning the vegetation, then a human should speak for the group. Emerath, if you are sure of your words, then speak them and let us be done with this.

 

Mysterious Lady N

Yeesh...do whatever you want. I don't care. Don't come crying to me when that bird gets you all killed. Hmph!

 

Emerath Katou

Alright, well it looks like the idea of talking to the parrot is not in favor. Then I will simply answer the riddle.

 

Celestine

Psssssssst. Hey, lady person of unfamiliarness. What is the N doing the standing for? Nonchalant? Normal? Narcissist?

 

Mysterious Lady N

...N. That's part of my Mystery. It's just N. Okay?
