Vivi's Hangout Event
|
:
|
Surprise! The TAVERN! Everyone loves coming to the tavern. What a romantical date, right?
|
Player:
|
It's simple, but cozy.
|
:
|
The innkeeper lady says I'm cute and 'spunky', so she lets me eat dinner if I clean off the tavern roof. It's the easiest I've ever eaten.
|
Player:
|
It doesn't matter where you go on a date. It matters who you're with.
|
:
|
I guess other people can make anything seem nice. The innkeeper lady says I'm cute and 'spunky', so she lets me eat dinner if I clean off the tavern roof. It's the easiest I've ever eaten.
|
Player:
|
So, really... why are you after me, exactly?
|
:
|
Hmm, I suppose I could share that secret with you (It's not like you'll be walking out of this tavern alive, or anything, hehehe...)
|
Player:
|
What was that?
|
:
|
Nothing! Nothing at all! I was just about to explain that I may as well come clean. King Minos of Withergate took a bounty out on your pretty little head. I've come to collect it.
|
Player:
|
King Minos? But why?
|
Player:
|
Are you sure about that?
|
:
|
Let's just say his royal highness didn't like the idea of a Sun Haven spy ransacking his city. He's paying handsomely for your prompt... removal.
|
Player:
|
Minos and I are on good enough terms. Are you sure the bounty isn't old?
|
:
|
No way! It says right on the bounty poster, in BIG red letters... "BOUNTY NULLED". 'Nulled' must be a fancy Demon word for tripled. Maybe even QUADRUPLED!
|
Player:
|
Actually, 'null' means...
|
:
|
Shhh!! Sh, sh sh, shhh!! Don't even START, because I don't wanna hear it!
|
Player:
|
Yeah, that must be it...
|
:
|
Think how much money we'll have once I claim your bounty! Well, how much money I'll have. Minos is RICH!
|
Player:
|
So you came all the way to Sun Haven just to claim my bounty?
|
:
|
Now you know my grand scheme. It's really too bad, I was even starting to like you. But ah well, it's just business, understand?
|
Player:
|
You really don't strike me as the assassin-y type.
|
:
|
Grr! Looks can be deceiving, as you'll come to find out.
|
Player:
|
You'll never take me alive, Vivi!
|
:
|
That's the plan, doll.
|
Player:
|
If I'm doomed, then why don't you tell me about yourself?
|
:
|
Hm? You mean you're genuinely interested in me? ...Alright, fine. I'm a Wildborn Amari. Ever heard of us?
|
Player:
|
I never have.
|
:
|
Some Amari like to play nice and live side-by-side with civilized people in towns. The Wildborn haven't forgotten what makes a real Amari, though. We live in the WILD! Where it's nice and DANGEROUS, just the way we like it!
|
Player:
|
I think I've read about them.
|
:
|
Then you know all about The Wildborn, and how they haven't forgotten what makes a real Amari. We live in the WILD! Where it's nice and DANGEROUS, just the way we like it!
|
Player:
|
So then why do you need my bounty?
|
:
|
Living in the wild isn't always easy. Some of my tribesmates are sick, and the extra money that I'll earn from your bounty will really help turn things around. Imagine... Proud Wildborn, reduced to doing some crummy Demon king's dirty work just to get by!
|
:
|
It's enough to make a girl AB-SO-LUTE-LY livid.
|
:
|
But it's okay! Because soon we'll have all the stupid little coins we need in order to buy medicine and everything else our tribe wants.
|
Player:
|
If you needed help, why not just ask?
|
:
|
Ask? For help? You have a lot to learn about the Wildborn if you think we'd ever ask for help. Oh, what's that I see? Is it the drinks I ordered?
|
Player:
|
Well, you won't be getting any bounty from me.
|
:
|
Showing backbone in the face of certain doom? I like that. Too bad it's all for nothing! Oh, what's that I see? Is it the drinks I ordered?
|
Mari carries over two frothy mugs to the table, playfully bidding the two 'cuties' drink up. You spot Vivi very clumsily pouring a black liquid into one of the mugs, though the Amari believes she's being super discreet...
|
:
|
Well, how about a drink?
|
Player:
|
(Drink the unpoisoned mug)
|
:
|
That's right, that's right! Drink up, hehe...
|
:
|
Urgh... tummy... doesn't feel so good... urp...
|
Player:
|
Alright, Vivi. Let's go see Dr. Wornhardt...
|
:
|
...It looks like the 'poison' Vivi drank was nothing more than mushed up berries. Enough to give anyone a very serious stomach ache, but nothing more. I don't know what sort of weird antics you were getting up to, but make sure Vivi gets a bit of rest after this. She'll recover just fine.
|
Player:
|
Thanks, Wornhardt.
|
:
|
Owie... tummy hurts...
|
Player:
|
I hope you feel better Vivi!
|
Player:
|
(Drink the poisoned mug)
|
:
|
That's right, that's right! Drink up, hehe...
|
:
|
Oh, wow! You actually drank it!
|
The poison takes effect immediately, turning your insides into fire. You're not sure if you should run to the hospital... or maybe the restroom...
|
:
|
Take it easy, [Player]. It seems that 'poison' you drank was nothing more than mushed up berries. Enough to give anyone a very serious stomach ache, but nothing more. I don't know what sort of weird antics you were getting up to, but you should be feeling better shortly. Don't be so reckless, silly!
|
Player:
|
Ugh... Thanks, Wornhardt.
