<Senate Messenger> Coby

"Oh, if it isn't our honorable Sprite Messenger! You came just in time," Coby says, his voice heavy with worry.

"The Senate would like to enlist your help." Coby bows to you, straight-backed and at almost a 90 degree angle.

"The flow of energy around Gaia's Tree has become increasingly unstable. The Senate initially believed it was part of a normal cycle," Coby explains, "until we realized the energy being released stemmed not from Gaia's Tree but instead a rift in time. Vile creatures, hungry for the rich energy, have begun amassing around Gaia's Tree, further destabilizing its energy."

"If my observations are correct, this is all happening because the seal in Infernal Forbidden Temple is weakening."

"We ask you to help retrieve the Breath of Gaia and eliminate all the Infernal Worms as a measure to fortify the deteriorating seal."

"Of course, we won't send you unprepared. Please use 'Sanction of Earth' to defeat the Infernal Worms and the 'Hand of Life' to retrieve 'Breath of Gaia' and obtain 'Warm Life Energy'."

"We are counting on you, Sprite Messenger." Coby bows in the same formal manner as before.

"Heading off to the time rift and defeating the otherworldly creatures is no meager undertaking." Apprehension flickers across Coby's face.

"Please return to me with five 'Warm Life Energy', having defeated five Infernal Worms, so that we can begin repairing the seal."

"We believe in you, Sprite Messenger."

"Amazing! That was much faster than I could have hoped. You are truly an exemplary Sprite Messenger."

"As a token of our gratitude, please accept this gift." Coby hands you a Life Crystal.

"The Senate rewards those who are fastidious in helping to repair the seal. If you have 4 Life Crystals, bring them to me."

"Although it is crucial that we continue fortifying the seal, you must need rest. We will gladly welcome your aid once you've had enough rest."

"On behalf of the Senate, and Saphael, please accept my deepest gratitude." Coby bows with a deferential flourish of his hands.
