You really want this Magical Aether Crystal? Truly? Because if you want it that badly, you'll have to earn it.

Here are my terms: every time you do a favor for me, I'll give you a Trust Marble. Earn enough, and you get the Magical Aether Crystal.

That way, you get what you need, I get respite from you for a while, and everyone else gets the benefit of dangerous missions getting done.

See? Everybody wins! Think you can handle it? If not, I've got work to do that requires peace and quiet!

Player: Accept.

You are looking at me strangely. Can you stop it?

What on Atreia do you want? Have I got something stuck to my face?

Player: "No, I finally have enough."

Enough what? Marbles of Trust? I don't believe you! Let me look.

By Siel, you do! I'd completely forgotten... I hadn't realized I'd been depending on you so much.

Well, then. There's nothing for it; a promise is a promise. Here's the Magical Aether Crystal. Use it wisely, young Daeva, or I'll be very cross.
