Hmm. Is this another Earth plant?[ST:wait ] |
| 2 |
|
qev031102_MSG0002 |
Fascinating. Might I cut one down to bring home?[ST:n ]I wish to use it in my research.[ST:wait ] |
| 3 |
|
qev031102_JNK0010 |
Inquire |
| 4 |
|
qev031102_SEL0011 |
Ask the Orphean if he is a botanist. |
| 5 |
|
qev031102_JNK0020 |
Deny |
| 6 |
|
qev031102_SEL0021 |
Inform the Orphean that the trees are public property. |
| 7 |
|
qev031102_MSG0003 |
Yes, I trade in the compositional analysis and[ST:n ]reproduction of plants.[ST:wait ] |
| 8 |
|
qev031102_MSG0004 |
And you are...?[ST:wait ] |
| 9 |
|
qev031102_MSG0005 |
Ah, I see. You seek information on how to best raise[ST:n ]a tree species brought to Mira by one of the Prone.[ST:wait ] |
| 10 |
|
qev031102_MSG0006 |
Well, any typical tree can be made to grow by using[ST:n ]gnarlbranch sap—which can be found in the vicinity[ST:n ]of the Divine Roost at the north edge of Noctilum.[ST:wait ] |
| 11 |
|
qev031102_MSG0007 |
I am curious to see this Great Tree for myself.[ST:wait ] |
| 12 |
|
qev031102_MSG0008 |
My Ovah has begun to throb as well. So be it.[ST:n ]I will meet with this Prone woman.[ST:wait ] |
| 13 |
|
qev031102_MSG0009 |
You treat such organisms as public property?[ST:n ]You humans are as odd as I had initially suspected.[ST:wait ] |
| 14 |
|
qev031102_MSG0010 |
But very well. As residents of New LA,[ST:n ]we must abide by your rules.[ST:wait ] |
| 15 |
|
qev031102_MSG0011 |
A seed of that type should mature quickly if treated[ST:n ]with gnarlbranch sap from the Divine Roost at the[ST:n ]north edge of Noctilum.[ST:wait ] |
| 16 |
|
qev031102_MSG0012 |
Mmm... I cannot wait. This Great Tree seems to be[ST:n ]a species very much to my taste.[ST:wait ] |
| 17 |
|
qev031102_MSG0013 |
Kindly deliver the gnarlbranch sap to Naza.[ST:wait ] |
| 18 |
|
qev031102_MSG0014 |
I am eager to see what manner of plant this Great Tree[ST:n ]grows into.[ST:wait ] |
| 19 |
|
qev031102_MSG0015 |
I have consumed something which for her bears the[ST:n ]same significance as my Ovah.[ST:wait ] |
| 20 |
|
qev031102_MSG0016 |
Truly, it was a grave mistake. Please secure the two[ST:n ]materials I have requested, and I will restore the[ST:n ]Great Tree without hesitation.[ST:wait ] |
| 21 |
|
qev031102_MSG0017 |
Have you acquired the materials needed to regenerate[ST:n ]the Great Tree?[ST:wait ] |
| 22 |
|
qev031102_MSG0018 |
Ah, just as I requested. I will begin work at once.[ST:wait ] |
| 23 |
|
qev031102_MSG0019 |
In the interest of precision, Naza, I need to ask a[ST:n ]number of questions about this Great Tree of yours.[ST:n ]Do you find this acceptable?[ST:wait ] |
| 24 |
|
qev031102_MSG0020 |
You may ask. But make haste.[ST:n ]If tree is lost, so are you, Professor.[ST:wait ] |
| 25 |
|
qev031102_MSG0021 |
Rest assured that your knowledge—combined with[ST:n ]the data I acquired by consuming the tree—should[ST:n ]prove most sufficient.[ST:wait ] |
| 26 |
|
qev031102_MSG0022 |
Now, if I may. Please describe the history you Prone[ST:n ]share with these sacred trees...[ST:wait ] |
| 27 |
|
qev031102_MSG0023 |
...He did it.[ST:wait ] |
| 28 |
|
qev031102_MSG0024 |
I assert that this reconstruction is a perfect match for[ST:n ]the Great Trees your people have long worshiped.[ST:wait ] |
| 29 |
|
qev031102_MSG0025 |
Hmm... You know? Seen in this light, I can[ST:n ]understand why one might think these trees[ST:n ]are hosts to the divine.[ST:wait ] |
| 30 |
|
qev031102_MSG0026 |
Professor is strange. Not bad. But strange.[ST:n ]...But other races often are.[ST:wait ] |
| 31 |
|
qev031102_MSG0027 |
Maybe races just need to speak to each other.[ST:n ]What do you think, Earth alien?[ST:wait ] |
| 32 |
|
qev031102_JNK0030 |
Agree |
| 33 |
|
qev031102_SEL0031 |
Nod in agreement. |
| 34 |
|
qev031102_JNK0040 |
Caution |
| 35 |
|
qev031102_SEL0041 |
Warn Naza that perfect understanding is impossible. |
| 36 |
|
qev031102_MSG0028 |
You are wise, Earth alien. Credit to your race.[ST:wait ] |
| 37 |
|
qev031102_MSG0029 |
I will learn from your example.[ST:n ]I will be less quick to violence.[ST:wait ] |
| 38 |
|
qev031102_MSG0030 |
Perhaps this is true.[ST:wait ] |
| 39 |
|
qev031102_MSG0031 |
Cavern Clan are Prone. Tree Clan are Prone.[ST:n ]Yet we have fought for 10,000 suns.[ST:wait ] |
| 40 |
|
qev031102_MSG0032 |
But maybe my clan can join Orphe in peace.[ST:wait ] |
| 41 |
|
qev031102_MSG0033 |
You ate Great Tree, then made new Great Tree.[ST:n ]You taught how to make it grow strong.[ST:n ]We are even now.[ST:wait ] |
| 42 |
|
qev031102_MSG0034 |
Huh?![ST:wait ] |
| 43 |
|
qev031102_MSG0035 |
Yun'tonam? What are you doing here?[ST:wait ] |
| 44 |
|
qev031102_MSG0036 |
I came at the guidance of my Ovah. I sensed you[ST:n ]were creating a palatable tree and came to dine.[ST:wait ] |
| 45 |
|
qev031102_MSG0037 |
You... YOU! That was my Great Tree![ST:wait ] |
| 46 |
|
qev031102_MSG0038 |
Hmm? This tree's original was a possession of yours?[ST:wait ] |
| 47 |
|
qev031102_MSG0039 |
Well, your Prone tree was very much to my liking.[ST:n ]I hope to enjoy another soon.[ST:wait ] |
| 48 |
|
qev031102_MSG0040 |
Grk! GWAAAAAAUGH![ST:wait ] |
| 49 |
|
qev031102_MSG0041 |
Here. Take reward.[ST:wait ] |
| 50 |
|
qev031102_MSG0042 |
I will speak to this new Orphean.[ST:n ]Speak until we reach understanding.[ST:wait ] |
| 51 |
|
qev031102_MSG0043 |
Very...thorough...understanding.[ST:n ]By any means necessary![ST:wait ] |
| 52 |
|
qev031102_MSG0044 |
You need not thank me. And if you require further[ST:n ]Great Tree copies, you have only to ask.[ST:wait ] |
| 53 |
|
qev031102_MSG0045 |
Also thanks to you, Earth alien. If not for you,[ST:n ]this would have ended in disaster.[ST:wait ] |
| 54 |
|
qev031102_MSG0046 |
Take this as symbol of my thanks.[ST:wait ] |
