Dialogue
Hermes
- Tell me, Player. In the course of watching me, have you learned aught of value?
- Upon selecting Dynamis as a reply: Dynamis, you say? Curious that such an obscure phenomenon should be of interest to you.
Seasoned Observer
- Chief Hermes, what good fortune to find you here.
Hermes
- Is something the matter?
Seasoned Observer
- The lyakon -- I'm afraid it's done it again.
- No sooner did we release one for observation than it set upon the nearby okyupetes, slaughtering them.
Hermes
- Was the creature hungry? Or somehow provoked?
Seasoned Observer
- I had just fed them myself, and the okyupetes were keeping a wide berth. It is the nature of the lyakon that is to blame. Their innate viciousness.
- Temperament aside, it is an outstanding creation, perfect in form and function.
- Though it may not be suited for release, I have no doubt that the bureau will accept its concept for preservation.
- In any case, there's no point in postponing the inevitable. Doros will revert them all once the paperwork is in order.
Hermes
- Where is the scene of the incident?
Seasoned Observer
- Just off the path to the Twelve Wonders. As you make your way, you should see it on the left. I don't know if Doros is still there, however.
Meteion
- H-Hermes! Wait!
Emet-Selch
- If this is part of his work, then I would observe. We follow.
