What can you tell me about %Ryoshi Sako%?
The conversation forks on the graph-variable check:
If True
My father was the best {Sako} that ever lived! He did so much for {Garkai}.
We always had fresh game hunted for us, and whenever {Garkai} was under attack, he was one of the first to grab his bow and step up. He truly earned his spot in the {Sheru}.
The conversation ends
If False
My father was the best {Sako} that ever lived ...
He didn't just sit around miserable, getting drunk and hating his job. Unlike these cowards, he earned his spot in the {Sheru Tomb}. The {Ekiros} won't even step foot in the tombs to clear the monsters. Ancestors have mercy.
The conversation ends
Tell me about yourself.
Only the first time
*The {karu} shoots you a very distrusting look.* I'm contently wed, I've begotten two children, and I'm actually incredibly busy right now.
I was thinking more like ... what's your name?
*She shoots you another very unpleasant look.* What's it to you? Why don't you go ask one of the {Tsuki's} wives their life story?
I'm only trying to be courteous ....
*She speaks in a disenchanted tone* My name is {Jiraguma}, and your curteousy falls through unwanting hands ... I trust that's all then?
I mean ... I probably will eventually, but what's that have to do with this?
*Her countenance distorts in visible irritation.* All right, outsider! If it'll stop your persisting, my name is {Jiraguma}. The pleasure is all yours, I'm sure.
Look lady, I've hit a bit of a rough patch, it'd be fantastic if you'd just cooperate.
You're married? Wait! You don't honestly think I was—!?
I don't put anything past your kind anymore—
*Vuclan-Born?*
—all men are beasts ... Except our darling {Judai} of course...but even he has his moments.
*But we're the same kind!*
*Oh, the: '<i>all sand elves are evil<i>' bit again.
*The mai-ri?*
*Think nothing of it.*
All right then ... did you grow up here?
My whole life. Loved it growing up; until I'm a Karu Elf / I'm NOT a Karu Elf and {sazziads} started coming in.
Every year more outsiders show up for the market. Every year I see more soldiers than the one before. It's only a matter of time before the {Empire} starts demanding our resources ...
Hopefully I'll be long gone by then ...
That bad, huh?

If True
*{Jiraguma's} eyes move instantly to {Taiyo}, then swiftly return focus to you.* You have no idea.
If False
You have no idea ...
Oh. Well. Thanks for letting me know...
Sure thing ... *You hear the disinterest in the elf's tone.*
[Say nothing] *You don't quite know how to respond.*
*{Jiraguma} stares blankly forward* Buried beneath hundreds, if not thousands of fireflies ...
- Changes a variable of Family Ties
Do you ... like ... fireflies?
They're one of the only honest and beautiful things left in this swamp ...
I had other questions.
Ask then...

I've discussed what I wil, {vemani} ...

What can you tell me about the {Sako} region?
The conversation forks on the graph-variable check:
If True
We prepare the best dishes in all of {Garkai}! Have you met {Oba} yet?
He's head chef over at the cookery. He's friendly to new faces, especially ones that show up with coin to spend. *She lets out a small chuckle. *
The conversation ends
If False
Only the first time
As the name would imply, it was started by the {Sako} family's ancestors after the {great schism} of {Garkai}.
Now they mostly float around the swamp all day, whining about work. If you're going to get to know any of them, let it be {Oba}; he cooks an unbelievably good meal, and he's always with a smile on his face. A difficult person to dislike, even for me.
You don't like the {Sakos}?
It's not that I don't like them. I wouldn't go so far as to say that. They're just a very whiney lot. They're always complaining about something.
The conversation ends
What's wrong with the {Sakos}?
Nothing unforgivable. It's just rare that a word of satisfaction passes their lips. Everything is a complaint.
The conversation ends
You sound bitter.
I am, boy, but not because the {Sakos} irritate me so. I promise that would be there regardless ...

*{Jiraguma's} eyes intensify and sharpen, but her tone does not change* My dear, where ever did that come from?
Just a feeling ...
*{Jiraguma's} voice starts to flatten and become disenchanted.* Well ... I'm deeply sorry you feel that way dear. Anyway ... was there anything else I can help you?
The conversation ends
Sorry, forget I said anything.
Of course, dear.
The conversation ends
I can't put my finger on it, but something about this interaction is <i>off</i>.
{Jiraguma Sako}. *the elf gives off an artificial smile.*
You know that!
The conversation ends
Did you grow up here in Garkai?
I've been right here in the {Sako} Region my whole life! No better life in Ardenfall, than life on the lake. Father was a fisherman, husband's a fisherman and now, I have the great pleasure of saying my son has grown into a very celebrated fisherman here in our little region.
