Player, I bet you're thrilled to see me again. I've heard all about your quest for special shoes and I have your Pattern of Endurance right here.

In fact, I've used up all MY endurance--and patience--in making this pattern this for you. So, as you could imagine, I have no time for a Shugo.

I have a secret shipment I need you to pick up--a trader named Edirunerk has it. Pick up my Top Secret Document, don't open it, and bring it back to me. Got it?

Player: Accept

Did Edinerk chatter your ears off? More importantly, do you have my Top Secret Document?

Player: "Here you are."

You have passed my test, Player. Do you want to know what's in this secret document?

Here, I'll open it for you. It's a blank piece of paper. Funny, isn't it? You'll find that we have a killer sense of humor here in the Iron Mace.

What, do you have something to tell me? You didn't like meeting the Shugo? Do you... not think I'm funny, Player?

Player: "You're hilarious."

You'll do fine in the Iron Mace. Marchutan already knew that, but you've proven to all of us that you're not afraid of a little work.

For putting up with this long speech, I will give you your Pattern of Endurance. Walk in Azphel's shadow, Daeva.
