Azphelumbra, Player. Oh dear! We simply must get you out of those dreadful clothes! I'd just love to take some measurements and use you as a model for my next masterpiece...but unfortunately I have a more pressing matter.

I've heard that you're a Daeva of distinguished tastes, and I'm hoping you will understand the importance of this little situation. My very reputation hangs in the balance!

Will you hear me out, Player?

Player: "What's the matter?"

Well, I'm holding this fabulous fashion contest--the inaugural Daskin Fashion Challenge.

You haven't heard of it? This is most embarrassing...it seems word of the contest hasn't spread as far as I had hoped. But regardless, I need three talented judges. I've sent out letters, but haven't received any responses!

I just can't imagine why! I need you to seek out my judges and get their answers, Player.

Player: Accept.

Wonderful! I've invited Eiren, Kari, and Phyper to judge the contest.

Eiren deals in divine clothing, and his instincts are second to none. Kari crafts and sells armor in Beluslan, and comes from a long line of master tailors. Phyper...he might seem the odd duck of the group, but his aesthetic sense is top notch.

I implore you, Player, please get their responses. The success of the contest depends on it!

Player: "I'm on it."

Beauty is a fickle and subjective master. I'm enamored with my wife, but is she the most beautiful woman in all of Asmodae? For me, yes, but for others, I'd imagine not.

The truth is, we're all beautiful in someone's eyes, but well designed clothing enhances our natural beauty. Know what I mean, Player?

You're in luck, I've just completed some new designs. Please talk to Lark.

Player: "Daskin needs your reply."

Daskin.... Right. I got his letter inviting me to judge some...contest of his. I haven't given him an answer, and I was kind of hoping he would just stop pestering me.

I'm familiar with Daskin's talents, but we're two different artisans. There's a clear difference between tailoring divine attire and frivolous costumes.

Judging in the contest wouldn't be all that difficult, but it wouldn't be beneficial for either of us. I've got strong opinions about clothing, and I wouldn't want to ruin Daskin's reputation by being too critical. Please tell him that I decline.

Player: "I'll let him know."

Come, browse the wares of the finest armor crafter in all Asmodae!

My armor is durable, functional, and built to last.

Now, what kind of armor are you looking for? Something for a [%userclass]?

Player: "I'm here on Daskin's behalf."

Ah yes, Daskin! I'm flattered that he holds me in such high esteem. Don't get me wrong, I'm a first rate armor fabricator. But as for judging costumes...I'm not so sure that I'm qualified.

I'm a little worried, but this is a great chance to meet others involved in our trade. Besides, Daskin told me that I'd be well compensated--more than enough to cover the business I'll be missing out on!

Please tell Daskin that I will make preparations at the shop, and see him in Pandaemonium in time for the contest.

Player: "I'll pass on the word."

Bah! Fashion isn't just about standing out--it's about expression, confidence, panache!

The people who just want to stand out have a lot to learn.

Nevertheless, what brings you here? Is there something you want from me?

Player: "Daskin needs a reply to his letter."

A letter? I never got a letter. Either it was lost or Daskin made a mistake.

Judging a fashion contest? I've asked Daskin about it before, so it seems he's come around to the idea. I might not look it, but I have an excellent fashion palate.

But I'm afraid the timing is all wrong. I'm in the middle of an important mission, and I don't have the time to travel to Pandaemonium to attend a contest. I regret having to pass up this opportunity...but duty comes first. I must ask you, Player, to be the bearer of bad news.

Player: "I'll let him know."

Welcome back, Player! The fate of the Daskin Fashion Challenge hangs in the balance! I pray you've returned with good news?

I'm on pins and needles here! What did they have to say? Will they be coming to the contest?

Player: "Good news and bad news..."

I will admit I am a little disappointed...but I never expected all three to accept my invitation.

But Phyper, that silly goose! I didn't expect him to refuse, though I suppose duty calls. He's always been a bit of a hardnose, but that's part of his charm.

Thank you for helping, Player. Even if things aren't as I expected, the show must go on. The Daskin Fashion Challenge will be an event to remember!
