Dialogue

Accepting the Quest

Worried Waif: Please, won't anybody help us...?
Worried Waif: It's my brother─his belly hurts so much, he can't even move. I don't think the “fresh water” we bought was fresh at all...
Worried Waif: Could you talk to the potion-maker for us, mister? I already tried, but when he started explaining the things he wanted for the medicine, I... I got scared and ran away.
(Optional)
Worried Waif: The potion-maker needed something to make the medicine, but I've already forgotten what he said...

Speaking with the puissant potion–maker

Puissant Potion–maker: Welcome, welcome! What concoctions are you after today, then?
Puissant Potion–maker: ...Ah, yes, I remember─the young girl and her ailing brother.
Puissant Potion–maker: I'd used the last of my bark, you see, and all I wanted was for her to gather some from the trees on the cape. The way she ran off, you'd think I'd asked for a bowl of her blood or something...
Puissant Potion–maker: You're welcome to collect a few strips in her stead if you like... Although I don't expect you'd want the bother.
Puissant Potion–maker: ...Still here? Very well, then. Find some trees, and use this knife to very carefully peel away three pieces of nice, dry bark. I won't hold my breath.
(Optional)
Puissant Potion–maker: All I need is three or so nicely dried strips of bark. Make sure you use that copper knife. Very important. Oh, and do bring the knife back, if you please? 

Delivering the strips of dried bark to the puissant potion–maker

Puissant Potion–maker: Ah, I see you finally came to your senses. Let's have that knife back, then...
<Hand Over 3 Dried Bark>
Puissant Potion–maker: ...What's this?
Puissant Potion–maker: You actually went to harvest the bark!? But...what could you possibly hope to gain? Kindness will get you nowhere in this rotten town!
Puissant Potion–maker: <sigh> What a rare soul you must be... 
I suppose I have no choice now but to mix up the cure I promised.
Puissant Potion–maker: I've mixed some herbs and powders together with the bark you brought─a few pellets a day should soon settle the aches in the lad's stomach.
Puissant Potion–maker: Never mind the payment. After all, it's you who's done most of the legwork.
Puissant Potion–maker: You know, I'd hoped to trade my healing skills for a life in Eulmore, but...maybe my place is here, amongst the poor and the desperate. To help for the sake of helping, to be needed. Aye, it's not a bad feeling... 

Delivering the pouch of herbal pellets to the worried waif

Worried Waif: Did you go and see the potion-maker...?
<Hand Over Herbal Pellets>
Worried Waif: ...For my brother!? Oh, thank you, [miss/mister]! You've saved his life!
Worried Waif: You'll be wanting coin, right? Uh, I'm not sure we─
Worried Waif: ...What do you mean, “nothing”? Here, you must take these at least─I collected them myself! Thank you again!
