Dialogue

Urianger:

• A tour of Labyrinthos? Hmm... An unexpected, yet prudent suggestion...
• Given the similarities betwixt this artificial environment and Bestways Burrow, 'twould be in our best interests to have the Loporrits acquaint themselves with those conditions deemed optimal by their Sharlayan collaborators.
• I fear, however, that continued reliance upon my limited knowledge would risk narrowing, rather than broadening, their perspectives. Mayhap thou art better suited to lead this venture?

Singingway:

• What a marvelous idea! Might we begin with that great, big wotsit over yonder?

Urianger:

• Ah, yes. The wotsit. I shall leave its explanation to Player. <chuckle>

Singingway:

• Goodness me! To build something so large without creation magicks...is positively stupendous!
• Perhaps you could direct our attention to its most important features?
• Is that water I hear from inside that great big tube?
• It must be because of those cogs and that gigantic wheel at the top.
• Oh, I see! That's how they draw up the water! There's probably some sort of spiral-shaped mechanism inside it, too.
• That looks like the “trees” in Greatest Endsvale!
• Hold on, that's a bit of a strange shape... It's thin at the bottom but big and round at the top. Quite tall for something so unbalanced, too.
• Now it makes sense! That's where they store the water!
• Hmm... It's a little hard to see from here, but is that a golden pipe connected to the top of those tanks?
• And I can see through that window another pipe at the bottom...
• Ah! This must be for purifying water drawn up from below!
• Well, if I were to hazard a guess, water drawn from underground─presumably with some other mechanism─is purified here and stored in that tower before being distributed elsewhere.
• I'm right, aren't I?
• I knew it! A design brilliant in its simplicity. I daresay it would take only a moment to install in even the harshest of environments. For us Loporrits, that is!

Livingway:

• Indeed, securing a reliable source of water is of the utmost importance for any fledgling settlement.

Singingway:

• We have read, however, that peoples of Etheirys sometimes make their homes in arid deserts and such. How are they able to survive?
• So wherever you choose to live, you're never far from water...

Growingway:

• Oh dear... I worry we won't be able to procure the necessary amount!
• We can provide enough water to keep them from drying out completely, but it would appear they rely on it far more than we'd anticipated!

Singingway:

• Hmm... A few adjustments may be in order, once we've calculated the average rate of consumption per individual...
• It may also be worth learning more about how exactly they obtain their water in the first place.

Urianger:

• Master Alphinaud spoke of the machinery responsible for that feat during our journey through Logistikon Alpha, did he not?
• Mayhap the Loporrits will share his appreciation for the engineering marvel.

Singingway:

• Oh, yes! That sounds absolutely splendid!

Urianger:

• We must journey beyond the sanctuary of Sharlayan Hamlet. I shall lead the way.

Growingway:

• Y-You mean we'll have to brave the untamed wilderness!?

Livingway:

• A valid concern indeed. We could not help but notice the many dangerous-looking creatures with big, nasty teeth lurking beyond the safe confines of this settlement.
• Were we not escorted here by burly custodians, I dread to think what would have become of us!

Urianger:

• Regrettably, to many a hungry predator with the aforementioned big, nasty teeth, Loporrits may appear to be a potential and rather appetizing source of sustenance...
• Might I impose upon thee to assist in securing safe passage to Logistikon Alpha?
• For my part, I shall act as escort to Livingway and Cookingway. I entrust Singingway and Growingway to thy care.
• A more valiant protector they could not wish for. Godsspeed.

Singingway:

• If it's all the same to you, I'd rather not be eaten by some horrid beastie.
• Come along, Growingway. To the water extraction wotsit!

Growingway:

• Th-Thank you so m-much...
• I really hope this water extraction wotsit is worth these harrowing experiences!
• All part of the fun, some might say, but I'd rather not be burnt to a crisp, if it's all the same to you!

Urianger:

• My friends, I bid you welcome to Logistikon Alpha.
• Our destination doth lie at the lift's top. Pray, follow me.

Singingway:

• Marvelous! Simply marvelous! So, this is where the magic─or science, rather─takes place! The perfect environment to sustain life, artificially created!
• The knowledge we'll gain here will be essential when we start looking for new stars for your kind to inhabit. Apparently, most of them don't even have air for you to breathe!
• You're all very lucky that Etheirys just so happens to provide everything you need to thrive. Or did mankind turn out the way they are because of the available resources, I wonder?
• Either way, it's nothing short of miraculous! And I cannot wait to see more of it!
