◣ Quest NPC Contact ◢

Below is a place to thread out quick little conversations with the NPCs that aren't worth an entire log. Vatheon's staple NPCs will have postings here, and all the other new quest NPCs will simply be listed under the "Quest NPCs" comment header. Please put in the subject line which quest you're talking with an NPC about!

Seems like you're pretty good at keeping yourself together regardless. That's good; that's what you need. You've got to have faith in yourself.

[Faith in God? Nah, that's not going to get most clerics anywhere. It's more faith that the cleric is always right.]

[dualbladewarrior]

Faith in myself?

[Actually he was expecting something closer to faith in some deity or another (which would have been harder for him to grasp, not being religious himself) but "faith in yourself" makes sense.]

I see. If I don't believe in myself, how can my comrades be expected to believe in me as well. Is that about it?

[thalassino]

What? Well... sort of. It's more like... say your party is in trouble because the warrior ran ahead AGAIN without consulting anyone and you're completely out of mana but you can't just let the dunderhead die, he's still your friend and all, right? So you dig deep down into yourself, have a little FAITH, and draw on those reserves you didn't even know you had.

[Hubert has learned the skill "Faith"!]

[dualbladewarrior]

... oh.

[He probably would have gotten that easier if Asbel was still around, but he would have easily been a warrior and done exactly that. For all of Pascal's impulsive nature, she's not nearly as reckless or would-be hero driven as Hubert's brother.

But it does make sense now that he's had it explained more.]

I see.

[He might actually be smiling, even as he gives a polite bow in gratitude.]

Thank you for imparting this knowledge to me.
