- A quest character: Beneath the Beacon's Glow
Openers (2)
The game picks one. They are alternatives, in the order it prefers them.
Only when all of these hold:
Only while the quest is at the authored phase
Only while “Repair the beacon's lantern mechanism” is succeeded in Beneath the Beacon's Glow
Only when the player carries Makeshift Lantern Mechanism
*The shop owner looks over the lantern mechanism you crafted.* This is actually quite impressive work, Viasha.
This could just work!
The conversation ends
Only while Beneath the Beacon's Glow is succeeded
Tidings, [player]! I heard you're the one to thank for the beacon being lit.
Ever since the ships started returning, business is thriving - so much so, that I'd be willing to sell to you at a slight discount.
My small way of saying thank you.

I'm here to check on the beacon parts Khosh the beacon keeper ordered.

Sorry, Viasha - I wish I had some better news for you.
I've been waiting on a Sazziad courier for weeks now.
Last I heard he was leaving Ishgana, but that was weeks ago - far longer than it takes to trekk from Ishgana to Akaga.
My shop relies on that beacon. If those ships can't port, I'm losing Diyuul.
What about scrap steel? I could assemble a new mechanism if I had the material.

If Vilified
(Low Reputation) If all you're asking for is some scrap, I can dig some up for you. *The store owner begrudgingly heads off to search for scrap.*
Here. Don't make me regret this ...

I have some scrap steel lying around if you truly think you can do such a thing. Wait here. *The shop owner slips into the back of the shop.*
Here we are! *He shouts loudly from the back, emerging a few seconds later with large basket of bent, tarnished steel.*
*The shop owner hands you the basket.* Do with it what you can.

You could do that? You never cease to amaze me, [player]. *The shop owner slips into the back of the shop.*

I could track down the courier.

Fine, fine - go ahead. If you find the iramata, make sure you give him an earful for me.
How hard is it to find your way to Akaga from Ishgana? A rare spot of incompetence within the empire.

You would do that for Akaga? By all means, give it a try. If you find the iramata, make sure you give him an earful for me.
If Accepted
If Honored
Of course, [player]. You've been so helpful with everything else around here that I have faith you may actually find the fool responsible for this blunder.
Why wouldn't you update Khosh on the situation?
If he'd had come down for supplies in the time since, I would have.
I saw little value in trekking up the hill to deliver words of disappointment - I simply assume the parts have to come eventually.
At that time, I will trekk the hill, and deliver good news.

(Low Reputation) Khosh entrusted you with this task?
I can only hope this is an honest attepmt at redemption - though, unfortunately I don't have the parts.

If False
I'm very relieved - hariyata.
And what of the courier?
Murdered by low-lifes.
That’s terribly unfortunate … Poor fellow, caught in the wrong place at the wrong time, it seems.
May his soul find peace in the realm of his ancestors.
I'm glad it all got resolved - one way or the other. Now we can all move on.
Thanks again, for keeping me informed.

Dead. It looks like his cart slipped over the bridge somehow.
That’s terribly unfortunate … Poor fellow - I wonder what possibly could have happened to cause such a thing.
Well ... May his soul find peace in the realm of his ancestors.
I'm not sure. I just found the parts in a submerged chest.
Ugh - lazy filth. Probably ditched the parts and caught the next ship back to Saeaqan.
I'd rather not talk about it.
Ah - I, see. I'm sure you have your reasons.
I'm just happy you managed to find the parts.
[Lie] He was, uh, lost in the woods - completely turned around. I offered to get the parts to Akaga and he went back home.
Poor fool. He won't last a year in the empire's ranks.
Oh well - the important thing is you found the parts.
If True
I thought that may be the case - the beacon's never been brighter.
Do you have any idea where I could go?
Well, there aren't any other beacons nearby, but maybe there's something close enough.
*The shop owner thinks for a second.* You could try Ishgana. There's a mechanic there that builds and maintains the windmills.
It's not the exact same, but its the closest thing you'll find around here.

Until next time, then.
