Excavator Rick

"This is a basement of the Crimson Sawtooth Army and Black Bone Pirates," Rick explained as he dug endlessly with a pickaxe.

"I dig here day in and day out. My hands have become a mass of calluses, and my body aches every time I move. They never allow us to rest."

"I just don't know why that magic stone is so important."

"Who are you? How did you know my name?" Rick asked suspiciously, holding his pickaxe defensively. When you explained, he quickly lowered it.

"My brother asked you to save me? Really?"

"I have been waiting for him for so long. He tried to find a way out and never returned. I thought the guards or monsters killed him."

"Thank goodness he's okay!" A bright smile broke out over Rick's soot-covered face.

"%n%, thank you for your bravery. But what about other workers? I can't just leave them in this cursed Deserted Temple."

"We can save everyone if we band together and kill the second-in-command!"

"Once the commander is dead, we will create a disturbance and escape!"

"Can I count on you,%n%?" Rick asked hopefully.

"The Crimson Sawtooth and Black Bones Pirates captured almost all of the workers here. However, there's one man who seems to be able to come and go as he likes."

"I saw him here a few times. He always has a big map in his hands."

"I wonder if it has anything to do with the magic stone," Rick pondered.

"Really? You beat him?" Rick's jaw dropped.

"We're finally free!" Rick pumped his fist in the air..

"%n%, I can't thank you enough. You have done so much for us."

"When we were taking turns trying to find a way out of here, we came upon something rather incredible."

"Deep inside the temple, I saw a Crystal Orb hanging in the air. Isn't that what the Crimson Sawtooth and the Black Bone Pirates seek?"

"Beware; it's very dangerous there. I searched a few times but only saw the Crystal Orb once."

"If you want to find it, just keep going further, and you may encounter the Crystal Orb. But use caution!"
