The game picks one. They are alternatives, in the order it prefers them.
Only when the player is racegroup_adult
OH! Hello there, young one! No doubt, your open mind, and free spirit have led you to my home. I'll tell you things those {yanaki-brained} fools out there never could.
The conversation ends
Only when the player is racegroup_old
OH! Hello there, do come in! I have been craving some intellectual conversation.
Only after the player has spoken to the speaker
You ... I saw your face in my tea leaves! ... I can't talk here ... They might be listening ...
The conversation ends
Only after the player has spoken to the speaker
Not here, {kamera}. Come visit me at my {pod} if you seek wisdom.
Meeting under cover of night, are we? You have some sumptuous gossip, I presume?
Only when the player stands LessThan Neutral with the speaker
Ah, the skeptic. Perhaps I can show you the truth yet.
Only when the player stands GreaterThan Neutral with the speaker
My like-minded friend. What can I do for you today?
Only when the player stands EqualTo Neutral with the speaker
You came back! That's a great sign.
What the player can raise (4)
The game offers every topic whose requirement is met, in the order it prefers them.
Who are you, exactly?
*The elf unfolds his arms and bows hospitably.* {Utaga Tsuki}, the wisest and most impoverished of the {Tsukis}.
Only the first time
[player]. A humble traveler.
*The elf squints as he shakes your hand.* Sure you are. Sure, yes. Of course. Pleased to meet you.
The conversation ends
Pleased to meet you, {Utaga}.
Requires a Low check of Charisma
*The elf squints as he shakes your hand.* Pleased to meet you. You have a delightful energy to you; you're not an enchanter / enchantress are you?
Joking! Only joking ... *You want to believe him, but he's still squinting at your suspiciously.*
- Changes how the speaker feels about the player
The conversation ends
Wisdom and poverty seem to go hand in hand ...
*The elf looks at you sympathetically.* A sad truth of the aether, is it not? It almost seems to be a pillar of existence in my case.
The conversation ends
Yeah, I can smell your 'wisdom' from here ...
*{Utagi} gives an offended face.* Well what am I to do? Sit in the bath house amongst {Sazziad} polymorphs!? Bathe in the shallows with the lake monster and leeches?
I think not, my dear [player_shortrace]. And may I remind you it was you that entered my abode with odd and suspicious questions.

Only when all of these hold:
Only when the player is racegroup_adult
Only when the conversation's own flag yanakiBrained is set
Aren't those '{yanaki-brained} fools' your kin?
Sure they are, for better or for worse. At least.. the ones that haven't been replaced.
Replaced?
*The elderly {Karu} leans in closer and speaks softer.* Don't you know? The {sazzis} want our tax dollars.
They want our ports. The tribes won't take their help or their laws, though, no, no. So what does the empire do? An {Ekiro} or two goes out into the woods; as soon as they hike far enough out of town, BOOM! They're in the dirt while two shapeshiftin' {Sazziad mages} return to town assuming their guise.
Sleepin' amongst us, usin' our resources, all the while gathering their data, plotting their move. None of the other tribes will listen ... That's why I stay in here. Safer that way.
The empire has definitely gone to greater lengths for lesser reasons. I'll keep my eyes peeled for spies.

*The old elf stares at you sternly for a moment before erupting in laughter.* HAHA! I knew I liked you! I knew your mind was open. Is there anything else you want to talk about - anything at all?
The conversation ends
Huh?
I don't know how to put it any plainer than that. Maybe we should just move on.
The conversation ends
You realize you sound insane?
- Changes standing with
I'd rather be crazy than wrong ...
The conversation ends
That's preposturous. Surely someone besides yourself would have noticed by now.
- Changes standing with
Surely, nothin'! The pride of these people blinds them to the most obvious of sorcery. No one wants to believe they're bein' deceived, includin' you.
Talkin' like you're more educated than me when you don't know anything outside your equations and books.
The conversation ends
What do you feel like talking about?
The game picks one of these replies at random:
One of the random replies
I've heard the fishermen at the inn talkin' in quaked voices at night. Some sort of monster in the lake.
The conversation ends
One of the random replies
The elders ain't plannin' on endin' the {schism} anytime soon. They turn a nice profit from it. Nothin' I can talk about here of course, you never know when they're listening.
The conversation ends
One of the random replies
I honestly don't know....
The conversation ends
One of the random replies
The {Sazziads} have been infultrating {Garkai} for years. Living among us in disguise.
The conversation ends
This has been very interesting, but I must be going.
The graph connects this choice to nothing, so the conversation stops here.
