Wellwell told us that you're the person

Goodness! To think that our generation
of Ouroboros would take an interest in
my humble scribbles! |

Basically, we don't really
get this whole "novel" thing. |

...Ahaha, of course, of course.
That's only natural. |

I believe there isn't much in the way of
printed storytelling outside the City, correct? |

nq310503_msg0008 |
Yes, I'd say so...
Is it something like a diary? |

Hmm... Well, you're not entirely wrong,
in that I'm trying to recreate in detail
the lives of the Founders... |

But it's different from a real diary,
because I've made most of it up. |

What do you mean, you made it up...? |

nq310503_msg0012 |
Well, to put it simply...
It's sort of all lies. |

What?! You just pulled it
out of your arse? |

Of course, I do strive to the best of
my ability to make sure it hews close
to the truth. |

There are so few documents and materials
left in the City from the Founders' times. |

So regardless, I would always have had
to weave guesses and interpretations
into my work to fill the gaps. |

...That said, it's probably time

Imagination has its limits. I find I've come
to the end of the line. I just don't know
where I'd take the story from here. |

But you're mega popular, ain't you?
Doesn't everyone love your novels? |

They do, which is why I've been
hoping for inspiration to strike... |

...Though, you could say inspiration
really has dropped from the heavens
right in front of me. |

According to the records, the
six Founders traveled throughout
the world looking for a new land. |

I've managed to pinpoint the exact

Unfortunately, I lack the robust
constitution to be a soldier. Would
you visit those places in my stead? |

What exactly d'you want us to look for? |

Hmm, let me see... If you happen upon
anything that looks out of the ordinary
there, you could bring it back. |

I'm trying to see if there's anything out
there beyond the information we have
in the records. |

What are the locations
you'd like us to look at? |

The Distant Fingertip and the
Dannagh Desert in the Fornis
region would be a great start. |

the Ruins of Seebu, and the
Old Cliffside Way. |

Finally, a place in Cadensia
called the Eternal Canopy.
And that should be all. |

So you're asking us to go to
all those places? Seriously? |

Get all your hardships out of the way
while you're young. Once you get old, you
can't do the fun stuff even if you want to. |
