Openers (5)

The game picks one. They are alternatives, in the order it prefers them.

Only while “Clear the Ogobi at the bridge where Shojiro likes to fish” is started in The Caravan's New Clothes

Those Ogobi gone yet?

Only while “Talk to Kioko Nasuke about Yugen's offer” is started in The Caravan's New Clothes

What is it you want?

Only while “Talk to Kioko Nasuke about Yugen's offer” is failed in The Caravan's New Clothes

I overheard you speaking with my wife earlier. It seems as though this deal is ... lucrative.

Only when all of these hold:

No one but the Nasuke's will ever produce what you call 'Akagian Cotton.'

The conversation ends

Only while The Caravan's New Clothes is succeeded

I'm optimistic about this new deal. I feel good things are on the horizon. [npc_0] will come around.

What the player can raise (3)

The game offers every topic whose requirement is met, in the order it prefers them.

Only while the quest is at the authored phase

  • [npc_2] would like to sell your wife's cotton all over Ardenfall - but she's not cooperating.

    The conversation forks on what the game checks, in this order:

    Only when the player is not racegroup_elf-sand

    I see my wife speaks as she always does - with a head full of bright tomorrows.

    I will not say she is wrong to withold our trust from you … but I've never turned a profit from hope alone.

    So tell me plain - why should we stake our livelihood on some elf all the way in Norakoji?

    • You keep seventy percent. Your wife keeps her name on every stitch. The risk is his, not yours.

      That does seem reasonable ...

      If [npc_2] is willing to accept a seventy-thirty split, I believe I can mend things with [npc_0].

      Once the profits begin to show as repairs on the farm, even her is bound to cool. Stone walls and stocked cellars have a way of easing hard feelings.

      *The elf extends his hand and takes the contract.*

      *With a nod to himself more than to you, he scrawls his name in rough, uneven script.* There. It is done.

      You tell that elf of yours he’ll be walking a thin line - and I best not come to regret this.

      The conversation ends

    • You’ll never have another chance like this - not one that could help your farm and your people.

      … If you truly think this’ll do some good for the farm, then all right. All right. But there’ll be terms.

      First - seventy percent stays with us. Not a drop less.

      [npc_0] wouldn’t bend for a king, and I’ve no wish to test her patience further.

      Second - she’s bound to be none too pleased with me. I’ll need a place to go unseen for a while.

      Problem is, my old fishing spot down by the bridge has gone thick with Ogobi. Whole nest of the things. Clear those out, and I’ll take that as a sign. Deal’s yours.

      The conversation forks on the graph-variable check:

      If True

      Only while The Caravan's New Clothes holds the authored value

      • I already took care of those Ogobi, so we should be all set.
        • Changes an objective of

        … You did?

        I owe you more credit than I thought. I suppose that makes it a deal - seventy for us, [npc_0]’s name on ever garment.

        *The elf extends his hand and takes the contract.*

        Continues where this conversation already went

      • Very well. I'll clear out your fishing spot and we'll make this a done deal.
        • Changes an objective of

        All right. I'll mark the bridge on your map. I spotted five or so Ogobi the last time I was in the area.

        Watch out for Snippy. He's a touch meaner than the rest of them.

        Vali, for now - I'll be around if you have any confusion or can't find the bridge.

        The conversation ends

      • Forget it. I'm not interested in doing anymore chores.

        This is exactly why [npc_0] said to stay clear of [npc_2].

        Lazy city folk, always looking for shortcuts - would’ve run our farm dry and dragged her weave through the mud just to turn a quick coin.

        The conversation ends

      • I'm not doing your dirty work so that <b>you</b> can profit greatly. Do you want to take this chance or not?

        The conversation forks on how the speaker feels about the player:

        If Honored

        (HIgh Reputation) *The elf clears his throat.* Let's not be too hasty. I've heard your name spoken in town more than once - and always with respect.

        By all accounts, you are a driven and trustworthy [player_shortrace]. That alone holds weight with me.

        If [npc_2] is willing to accept a seventy-thirty split, I believe I can mend things with [npc_0].

        Once the profits begin to show as repairs on the farm, even her is bound to cool. Stone walls and stocked cellars have a way of easing hard feelings.

        What do you say?

    • I owe no explanations to a provincial farmer. If you cannot grasp the worth of what lies before you, then this entire effort has been in vain.
      • Changes how the speaker feels about the player

      If you think us simple, you are welcome to leave. We were here before your parchment and promises - and we will be here after.

      Goodbye, Viasha.

      The conversation ends

    Otherwise

    That's because we don't do business with Sazzis - certainly not directly. Better luck elsewhere.

    Continues where this conversation already went

Only when all of these hold:

Only when all of these hold:

  • Only while “Clear the Ogobi at the bridge where Shojiro likes to fish” is started in The Caravan's New Clothes

  • Only while “Talk to Kioko's husband about Yugen's proposal” is started in The Caravan's New Clothes

  • Only when the conversation's own flag ogobiStarted is set

  • I have questions about the Ogobi at the bridge.

    Well, hurry then. Spit them out.

    • Where is the bridge?

      Take a left out the farm gate and follow the road up - you will not miss it. Stone bridge over a quiet little lake, clear as glass on most days. Peaceful, before the Ogobi.

      Returns to the previous choices

    • How many Ogobi did you say there were?

      The last time I made the mistake of heading that way I counted at least five of them.

      Returns to the previous choices

    • That's all I wanted to know.

      All right.

      The conversation ends

Other entry points (1)

The game reaches these from elsewhere: a quest event, or another conversation.

The conversation forks on the graph-variable check:

If False

... Get to your point. Quickly.

If True

*The farmer glances over at his nearby wife.* Sorry sir, it's like I said. You'll have to talk to [npc_0]. The cotton is just as much hers as it is mine.

The conversation ends
