Eral: Do they perhaps ready themselves for some fresh rite? After so much doom and gloom, I shouldn't mind a day of merrymaking! Ah, just the thought excites me. Would you see what it's all about? | |||
Yedythe: A day of ''merrymaking''? Is that all you adventurers think about? | |||
Yedythe: I am here to ''teach'', my dear fellow/lady. From me, these younglings are to learn a most sacred, meaningful, and ''uniquely'' uplifting dance. | |||
Yedythe: Now, I realize full well that tradition may not hold much allure for the young, but I didn't think they would up and run away! | |||
Yedythe: This manner of disobedience is ''unprecedented''. It's all the more surprising considering they obey the timbermaster without demur. | |||
Yedythe: What I wouldn't give to know his secrets, but I must wait here for my unruly charges. I wonder, though...might you ask the man how he tamed them? | |||
Yedythe: How is it that Timbermaster Beatin can get the children to ''obey'' him? | |||

Beatin: ...Apparently not. Speak your mind, child. | |||
Beatin: So the younglings will not heed their dancing master, and ''I'' am to provide the solution. <sigh> | |||

Dialogue
Eral: I make no secret about my disinclination toward Gridanians, as you may know. But I just saw a rare sight that I would be remiss not to share with a fellow adventurer. Eral: Just over yonder in the Acorn Orchard, I saw a comely maiden─new to these benighted parts, I'd wager─dancing with a gaggle of younglings! 'Twas a dance I'd not seen before, and I've seen my fair share. Eral: Do they perhaps ready themselves for some fresh rite? After so much doom and gloom, I shouldn't mind a day of merrymaking!
