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

*{Yakua's} eyes bulge from his head in disbelief, as he shouts to you loudly in elation.* OH! I DON'T BELIEVE MY EYES! OH MY DEAR %HITO%, HOW I'VE MISSED YOU SO.

Thank you so much, kind {Viasha}. I can never properly repay you, but please, but I will do my best!

But first, where ever did you find %Hito%!?

Only after the player has spoken to the quest's character

  • {Ikan Ekiro} was selling her as his own.

    Hm. Well, %Ikan% won't have time to complete his plan. I'm getting {Azasumi} involved immediately.

    Thank you for your help in tracking down {Hito}, {Viasha}.

    • Actually that won't be necessary.

      You've already reported him, then?

      • [Lie] I reported it to the empire. They don't take livestock theft lightly. He'll be rotting in a {Sazziad} jail.

        Requires a Custom check of Speech

        Good ... That's what a cold-hearted thief like him deserves ...

        Trying to separate me from my precious {Hito}!

        Thank you for your help, {Viasha}. I'll go retrieve {Hito}.

      • Something like that. He won't steal from you again.

        Oh ... Oh {Dreamer} ... You—you've ... you've done away with him, haven't you? ...

        ... Th-thank you for your help, {vemani}. Your services are appreciated but n-no longer needed ...

        The guards will take it from here. *The elf hurries along, frightened.*

      • No, I killed him.
  • {Ikan Ekiro} tried to sell {Hito} in order to stop her from eating {ganura}.

    {Ikan} planned what!? That nosey rancher always complaining about {Hito's} afternoon grazing!?

    This is an outrage! I'll have his horn for this! {Azasumi} will hear of it at once!

    Continues where this conversation already went

  • I cut her loose from an {Ekiro's} farm.

    The {yanaki} farm just over the way? That means ... {Ikan} is behind this ...

    Continues where this conversation already went

  • [Lie] Oh ... she was just, wondering out by the lake.

    Oh, delightful! Of course! My dear %Hito% LOVES to splash about! Why didn't I think to check the lake earlier!

    Thank you for your help in tracking down {Hito}, {Viasha}.

    • Changes the speaker's routine
    • +300 gold
    • +1000 experience
    • Changes a variable of something the compendium does not publish

    The conversation ends

Only while Yanaki with the Red Ribbon is succeeded

*You are met with a {karu} in distress, clearly trying to keep himself composed.*

Sorry to trouble you, sir, but have you seen a %yanaki% roaming around / Excuse me, miss. Have you spotted a %yanaki% in {Garkai}? Perhaps wandering free and unaccompanied, with a ribbon tied to its horn—a red one.

The conversation forks on the graph-variable check:

If True

Only after the player has spoken to the quest's character

  • I found this on {Ikan Ekiro}. I think he stole {Hito}. *Show {Ikan's journal} to {Yakua}.*

    {Ikan}? That nosey rancher always complaining about {Hito's} afternoon grazing!? Let me see that!

    *The elf reads the journal carefully.* This is an outrage! I'll have his horn for this! {Azasumi} will hear of it at once!

    Thank you for your help in tracking down {Hito}, {Viasha}. I trust you don't mind if I keep this for evidence?

    • Gives

    If True

    The conversation ends

  • None wearing a ribbon, I'm afraid.

    I see ... well, if you happen to see a {yanaki} with a %red ribbon% tied to her %horn%, that is %Hito%, my pet. Please do not harm her; if you can return her to me, I will pay handsomely!

    She's tame and doesn't know how to survive in the wild.

    The conversation ends

  • I saw a {yanaki} with a red ribbon over at the {Ekiro's} farm.

    You .. wait. At %Ikan's% {yanaki} farm?

    • That's right. He was trying to sell it to a foreigner on their way out of {Garkai}.

      Hm. Well, %Ikan% won't have time to complete his plan. I'm getting {Azasumi} involved immediately.

      Thank you for your help in tracking down {Hito}, {Viasha}.

      Continues where this conversation already went

  • What's a {yanaki}?

    A beautiful and majestic creature! A stout and gentle beast with a brilliant %horn% protruding from its nose. Absolutely stunning.

    Returns to an earlier point

  • I've seen those around. None with a ribbon, though.
  • No, but I have other questions.

    But ... uh ... Very well. But, please, if you see a yanaki with a red ribbon, do inform me or a guard immediately.

    The conversation ends

  • No, and I have to be going.

    But ... uh ... Very well. But, please, if you see a yanaki with a red ribbon, do inform me or a guard immediately.

    The conversation ends

If False

  • There's been an accident ...

    An accident? Of what sort?

    • Involving <greetingPath = True ? "your pet {yanaki} ... She's passed on." : "{Hito} ... she died in my care after I rescued her from Ikan.">

      WHAT! MY PRECIOUS HITO! DEAD!?

      This ... this is inconsolable ... how could you have failed me so grievously! Handled my beloved with such carelessness!

      Just ... just go.

    • [Lie] I found the animal deceased ...

      Requires a Medium check of Speech

      Oh ... I ... I see.

      {Hito} was spoiled and didn't really know any life outside of being a pet ... and she had such a curious nature about her ...

      I should've known she'd escape my supervision one day and become the swamp's latest victim ... Thank you for trying, {Viasha} ... I can at least have peace of mind in my time of grieving ...

      The conversation ends

  • [Lie] Sorry. Haven't seen anything of the sort.

    But ... uh ... Very well. But, please, if you see a yanaki with a red ribbon, do inform me or a guard immediately!

    *{Yakua} again starts calling for his deceased {yanaki}.* {HIIIIITO}! Where are you!

    {HIIIIITO}!

    The conversation ends

Only while the quest is at the authored phase

Oh ... hello, {vemani}. I, um ... —thanks again, you know, for finding {Hito} ...

Anyway, I have work to do ...

The conversation ends

Only while the quest is at the authored phase

I hope %Hito% is okay ...

  • How will I recognize {Hito} from other {yanaki} again?

    {Hito} has a custom %red ribbon% wrapped around her darling %horn%. The %ribbon% is made just for her and no other {yanaki} would have it.

    The conversation ends

Only when the quest's character is dead

Only when all of these hold:

  • I have to go, but I will let you know if I see {Hito}.

    The graph connects this choice to nothing, so the conversation stops here.
