Sage of the Southern Sea Zilnan

"Werewolves just show up to make trouble. I'm just a Sage, though, and I don't have the money to pay to get rid of them."

"Yuanhuang will kill anything evil, including those terrible animals and wretched pirates. He should know that 'good' pirates do exist."

"Maybe I should start charging a fee to enter the temple," Zilnan mused.

"Thank you for your help. I'm sure you'll soon find the truth you seek."

"You've likely frightened the Werewolves away for a while. Tranquility has been restored at last."

"On your travels, you might meet many different kinds of pirates. Use caution when approaching them."

"Once you pass the seaside, you will reach the northern tip of the Peninsula. There, you'll find the answer you long for," Zilnan explained with an enigmatic smile.

"If you're searching for Miracle Maiden, you probably wish to find Ardenis, too. He's fairly close."

"Your journey will end soon, and you'll find the truth! You should be overjoyed. I, however, am quite despondent. The wicked jelly rabbits have become pirates!" Zilnan exclaimed.

"Jelly rabbits in eye patches-ridiculous!"

"Did you know that Ardenis is also a Sprite messenger? Odd, right?"

"I heard the Kaslow Guard of Justice wanders around Kalnis Citadel. I think you should meet him."

"Listening to the waves crashing into the shore makes my worries fade."

"If you're headed to the seaside, can you bring me some Azure Tortoise Shells?"

"The shells make important offerings for the King of the Southern Sea," Zilnan explained.

"The shells are also used as high quality raw materials in many places. Demand has proven quite high; one could make a tidy profit." Zilnan smirked.

"Isn't the sea wonderful? Try walking barefoot on the sand. The soft grit of the sand against your tired soles... the feeling is simply indescribable."

"Relax and take a stroll by the seaside. Don't forget your task, though."

"You can make the shells into practically anything, from a sacred necklace to a food processor. Just ask any of the sellers at the black market in Jale. Oops, I've said too much."

"Welcome back! The King of the Southern Sea will undoubtedly be delighted by these Azure Tortoise Shells."

"I'm pretty delighted, too."

"What's that? You want to know what I plan to do with these tortoise shells?"

"Well, there are some things in life that we must keep to ourselves," Zilnan said with a sly smile.

"One day, I'll explore the world." He looked wistfully out into the aqua sea.

"I've no clue why those jelly rabbits have sunk so low and become no-good pirates."

"The pirate hats they've got perched atop their tiny bunny heads are pretty cute, though. The jelly rabbits make 'em themselves from special materials. Call me crazy, but I really want one."

"However, I can't stray from the Temple; I've got preaching to do, you know! Can you bring me some jelly rabbit pirate hats?"

"Pirate Jelly Rabbits love their hats; they won't hand them over without a fight."

"This might be a little cruel, but you can try to stun them to get one," Zilnan explained, a smile playing at his lips.

"Well, clearly, that didn't work. Looks like the pirate hat is a part of the jelly rabbit's body. Once the jelly rabbit goes down, the hat's gone."

"Thank you for your help, dear Sprite messenger. I'll have to try another method." Zilnan sighed.

"Here is your payment. If you have time, try nabbing a hat for me again."

"You must have met the sage of each Sprite king temple on your way here."

"We might follow different Sprite kings, but we have much in common."

"We are curious about everything in this world. If you are interested in our research, please take a message to Ronberry for me. Also, ask Darsus about his progress."

"Tell him that a pot of meat soup can be brewed from one teaspoon of Pointy Rock Powder. Give him that exact message."

"Darsus is the Frost Sage that looks a lot like a jelly rabbit," Zilnan giggled.
