Dialog

Han Rin-Jo's opening dialog

Han Rin-Jo, Jojii Adherent tells you, "Sit, Please."

Han Rin-Jo, Jojii Adherent tells you, "In my life, I have seen a great many wonders that have challenged my beliefs, and driven me near the edge of forsaking all that I had known. But in Jojii, I have found the virtuous path."

Han Rin-Jo, Jojii Adherent tells you, "Not so long ago, another came to me. He was as accomplished as you, more so perhaps. What he had accomplished is not as important as what he had learned."

Han Rin-Jo, Jojii Adherent tells you, "His name is Honshu Takeda, and he has begun to learn about himself and the way of Jojii. He had lost his way, and I have set him back upon his path. He will follow the shrines to Jojii. The first lies within this very town, just beyond these doors between the trees."

Han Rin-Jo, Jojii Adherent tells you, "His journey will end in Kara. Much wisdom can be garnered by following the path and incorporating the lessons of the four stones in your actions."

Han Rin-Jo, Jojii Adherent tells you, "Should you wish to follow in his steps, seek the shrine and pray as I am sure he has done."

Ikomi Ra's dialog after speaking to Han Rin-Jo

Ikomi Ra, Jojii Adherent tells you, "I have met the man you seek, this Honshu Takeda. He is a good man. He will find his way back to the path of right living. I have sent him to seek grace at the shrine in Sawato. Perhaps if you pray, as he likely did, at the shrine you will see grace as well."

Using the shrine in Sawato

As you sit and pray at the small shrine you see a small note resting on the top. You take the note.

Using the Crystal Formation

You amass a small collection of crystals that link together, looking much like sollerets. The crystals come apart as easily as they can be put together.

Using Crystal Formation again

The crystals that you collected within the past day have not reformed. Perhaps if you wait just a short while longer you will be able to find more.

Using the shrine in Lin

As you sit and pray at the small shrine you see a small note resting on the top. You take the note.

Using the Smooth Rocks

The rocks appear to be too large to carry. However, as you search through them you see one that has been formed into a perfectly smooth sphere, about the size of an orb.

Using the Smooth Rocks again

The rocks are all too large. You found a smooth stone here within the past day. Perhaps if a little more time passes another such stone will be created by the shifting magma.

Miko Li's opening dialog

Miko Li, Jojii Adherent tells you, "You seek the power of the dragon, as did Honshu. Very well. I shall tell you were he was sent. In the valley, across the stretch of land, and water. Through the hills that bite, atop the crest where the sun sets, there is a portal into the place where the Dragon's flame smolders in a basin of metal. Honshu went there to find the Dragon's power."

Miko Li, Jojii Adherent tells you, "Go there and find the strength that I hope he found."

Using the Smoldering Brazier

The curvature of the metal basin is perfect for a shield. As you sift the coals and ashes aside you can tell that the heat from the burning embers has created this perfect object.

Using the Smoldering Brazier again

The heat from the embers has not burned long enough. The metal is too cool and has not taken on the perfect curvature yet. Perhaps it will take a day for the embers to bend the metal.

Honshu Takeda's quest completion dialog

Honshu Takeda tells you, "You have done well to find the power of the Dragon."

Honshu Takeda tells you, "You have done well to find the power of the Firebird."

Honshu Takeda tells you, "You have traveled the same path as I, and learned the lessons of the great spirits. Now you must know how they fit together."

Honshu Takeda tells you, "The base is the Dragon's power. The grace of the Unicorn must be spread within. The splendor of the Firebird can be placed atop the combination of strength and grace but...only with pure water that represents the four stones and the path of Jojii can you bring the object to life."

Honshu Takeda tells you, "Here, take this."

Honshu Takeda gives you Pure Water.

Honshu Takeda tells you, "The water can be used to waken the combined spirit of the three, or to awaken the strength of just one. I would advise against waking just one. There is little that can be finished that is not complete."

Honshu Takeda's repeated dialog after quest completion

Honshu Takeda tells you, "You have completed your journey. Allow time for the teachings to be set within your being. If within one day you are still without direction, follow my path again, and I shall teach the steps anew."

Honshu Takeda's item examination dialog

You allow Honshu Takeda to examine your Crystals of Grace.

Honshu Takeda tells you, "These crystals must be laid into the Dragon's protective arms. Place them within the brazier. If you choose to use them alone, you can anoint them with the water I have given you, but you will not find completeness."

You allow Honshu Takeda to examine your Rock of Splendor.

Honshu Takeda tells you, "This should placed atop the crystals that have been laid into the brazier that represents the Dragon's power. Place it atop the crystals and brazier. You can choose to anoint this stone with the water I have given you, but you will not find completeness."

You allow Honshu Takeda to examine your Brazier of Power.

Honshu Takeda tells you, "The brazier represents the power of the Dragon a shield and defense for the Unicorn and Firebird. You can place the crystals within the Brazier. If you so choose, you may alter this with the water I have given you, but you will not find completeness."

You allow Honshu Takeda to examine your Pure Water.

Honshu Takeda tells you, "Anoint the combines pieces that represent the Dragon, Firebird and Unicorn to find a center for yourself. If you choose to anoint a single item you may release the magical properties within the item but you will still find yourself empty."

Creating the Sollerets of Grace

As the water spreads over the crystals they take on the shape of sollerets.

Creating the Orb of Splendor

As the stone drinks the water it takes on a splendorous appearance.

Creating the Shield of Power

As the water pours over the brazier it hardens into a shield with a symbol of the dragon at its center.

Creating the Font of Jojii

You sprinkle the crystals into the basin, preparing them for the perfect stone.

You place the stone atop the crystals and are filled with a warm feeling. It is missing one final element.

You pour the water over the crystals and a magical change takes place.
