Where the Springs Return: Act I
Those Searching for the Mysterious Island
Quest List
While wandering in the wilderness, you hear two tourists crying for help, and you and Paimon decide to aid them...
Go play out in the wilds near the People of the Springs
Paimon:
Wow, what an amazing view! And we can even see some Koholasaurs here and there! Hey, why don't we try to get a picture with one or two of them in the wild?
Traveler:
But what if they try to bite us?
Paimon:
Well... they're so cute, they probably won't do that, right...?
Paimon:
Huh? What's happening over there?
Karya:
Help! Somebody help us!
Paimon:
Ah! Wild Koholasaurs are actually biting people!
Paimon:
Yeah, those two are in trouble! The legendary Traveler and his trusty sidekick Paimon will not stand by idly!
Talk to the freed tourists
The defeated Koholasaurs scatter and run away.
Paimon:
Judging from your clothes, you must be scholars from Sumeru, right?
Karya:
Yes, I'm Karya, and this is my senior, Viramdra. Thank you so much for saving us. That was a little too close...
Paimon:
Don't mention it! Handling these sort of things is practically second nature to us by now. Paimon is Paimon, and this is Traveler!
Viramdra:
*sigh* Still, it seems that all the Koholasaurs just ran off... We need to capture at least one alive.
Paimon:
Huh? Capture one alive?
Viramdra:
Correct. Say, I can see you are very skilled at dealing with them. Do you think you could use me as live bait to help us capture one? I will pay you for the effort!
Paimon:
Um, well...
Karya:
Apologies. Viramdra has been hyper-focused on his research, so please, don't be too hard on him...
Paimon:
Oh, no worries! But why did you approach a whole group of wild Koholasaurs? And what's this talk about "capturing them"?
Traveler:
Don't tell me you want to get a picture with them, too.
Paimon:
Paimon's pretty sure that's not what they're trying to do!
Karya:
I'm sure we must look very silly... The fact of the matter is that we're searching for a mysterious island from a certain legend. It's said that a very important clue about the island can be found on Koholasaurs, so...
Karya:
Approaching them without the help of a guide from the People of the Springs was certainly an unwise choice on our part.
Paimon:
A mysterious island?
Karya:
Yes. There's a legend from the People of the Springs that mentions a mysterious island, and Viramdra believes the key to his research can be found there.
Viramdra:
Ahem... Are you certain you two won't consider my proposal to capture one?
Paimon:
Some proposal... There's no way we'd be willing to use a person as live bait!
Viramdra:
Then I suppose discussing it any further will just be a waste of time. I must come up with another solution...
Karya:
Ahem... Viramdra!
Viramdra:
Oh, alright... You did rescue Karya and I just now, and I suppose I should express some gratitude. Thank you very much.
Paimon:
A little awkward, but Paimon'll take it...
Viramdra:
We should move on, Karya.
Karya:
Yes, thank you again. My apologies... Viramdra really doesn't have the best people skills.
Paimon:
That's alright, bye now!
Paimon:
You really don't see a pair of adventurers like those two every day!
Paimon:
But anyway, Paimon's really curious about that mysterious island that lady just mentioned!
Traveler:
Do you wanna find the island too, Paimon?
Paimon:
Yeah! Who knows, there might be treasure!
Paimon:
After all the amazing places we've explored during our adventures, finding some mysterious island should be a walk in the park for us!
Traveler:
But we don't have any info about this island.
Paimon:
Ah, you're right... The lady mentioned that the mysterious island is related to a legend of the People of the Springs... So maybe we can start by asking some of them about it?
Paimon:
Time's ticking. Let's get started on our next adventure!
Paimon:
But the real question is... who should we ask?
Traveler:
Can we just talk to the chief?
Paimon:
Hmm... that's an idea. If anyone, the chief of the tribe should know the details!
