Garon

Are you the <hero job> from the Guild? I'm Garon, a trader.
I want you to go down to Ragol and retrieve my lost items.
It's really important!
A business opportunity the likes of which no one has seen before!
I'm sure I'll become a zillionaire when I get it all back.
That useless Ranger said that an android took them.
Find that android and get back my items! Understand?
If you need any more info, ask that stupid, incompetent Ranger.
Go talk to that useless ranger if you need more details!
He should be around somewhere.


Dacci

Garon's commodity? Ah, they're just Mags.
Garon happened to find out that Mags could be found on the ground.
He asked me to collect some for him. I accepted it for the Meseta.
I collected enough Mags on Ragol to make everyone happy, but then,
I thought about the Mags and the hunters who used them before.
Mags are just protectors invented by a scientist.
But we're given one when we become hunters. It's kind of tradition.
Mags are an essential piece of equipment for Hunters, right?
When I was thinking this, an android appeared, and...
It was right, though. Garon shouldn't use them to get Meseta.
No, the Mags weren't stolen. They voluntarily left...
I'm not lying to you. It's the truth.


Male Base

I don't think Garon is a good trader.
I heard that he belongs to a suspicious traders group.
His view on things is so narrow that he'll never be a successful trader.
Credibility is important for people to have. It's an invaluable commodity.

Elenor

Well... one's still missing...
!
I was surprised...
Ah... excuse me, but have you seen a Mag around here?
  • [OPTION 1:] No, I haven't.
Thanks, anyway. I wonder where it is... A Mag left me when I wasn't paying attention.
[Dialog loops to the beginning.]
  • [OPTION 2:] I'm looking for it.
What?  You came here to retrieve Mags?
No, no! I didn't mean to take them from the Ranger.
But they all looked so sad, so I just started talking to them.
And... they looked very happy.  I just wanted to say hello.
But... they all wanted to come with me, and they chased after me.
Then everyone returned to their master's place. They aren't here now.
Only one Mag was saying that it would come with me, but it disappeared.
Sorry about that...
Are you going to look for it? Let me join you.
Maybe it didn't stray too far from me.
By the way, I'm Elenor. Elenor Camuel. I'm an android.
[Elenor joins your party.]
Are you mad because I let the Mags run away?
I'm sorry.
But please listen.  I don't know if you're aware of this, but...
Mags are intelligent.
When a hunter equips a Mag, it recognizes him or her as its master.
Some Mags are clever. They can protect or heal their masters!
Moreover, some can do a lot of photon damage.
Doc told me, but... I forgot...
Aaa...anyway!
Mags'll try to help you if you're nice to them.
Mags feel very sad when they lose their masters.
Excuse me, I don't know if I should tell you this... but...
<hero name>, your Mag is hungry...
It's true!
It's alive.  It needs something to eat.
And it's best to give a Mag its favorite item.
Each Mag has its own characteristics and its own favorite items.
Some like Monomate, others like Dimate...
To feed your Mag, open the menu window, select Item Pack, then MAG.
Then select Give Items. That's it.  It's easy.
Try to "know" your Mag.
It grows as its Master gains experience.
<hero name>, your Mag is very cute.
It likes you a lot, <hero name>!
...Huh?
How can I communicate with Mags?
Well, because...
???
I'm so sorry... I just don't know.
Oh, I just remembered!
When Mags get damaged, they charge energy to endure the pain.
The charged energy can be converted to a Photon Blast!
...but I'm not sure...
When the energy is fully charged, your Mag tells you to use the power!
I remember now...
I used to have a Mag a long time ago.
It had a twin.
I lost it while it was still a baby, so I feel guilty about that...
I'm sure it's doing well, though!
The doctor said it's probably doing fine, anyway! Still...
I often wonder what it turned out to be, now that it's all grown up.
Hey! There it is!
There!  Over there! Can you see it?


Narration

Got missing MAG!
["Missing MAG" added to Quest Board. Details: The MAG which had been missing.]


Elenor

Hi again...
......
I see.
It visited its ex-master to say bye-bye.
Now it's done.  It says that it wants to have a new master.
See? Mags prefer a master that loves them.
<hero name>, please take care of your Mag.
Even if you can't hear its voice, know that it understands you.
[Elenor leaves your party.]
Mags are good partners to hunters.
I "know" my Mag.  I can feel my Mag because I'm very close to it...


Pioneer 2

Male Base

Has Garon learned this?
I don't think so…


Dacci

I'm happy to hear that.
The Mags would be much happier going back to their masters.


Garon

Whaaaat? This is the only one?
The other Mags returned to their masters?
Their masters were already ...dead...
......
Anyway, you can get your Meseta at the Guild! Your job is finished.
["Missing MAG" removed from Quest Board.]
I lost so much Meseta! I could've been a... zillionaire...
