Batahn’s Technicks

Rabanastran (woman speaking with red bangaa): The parade was wonderful, don’t you think? Just hearing the Consul speak, you could tell he’s a man of power and influence.

Rabanastran (woman in blue, red, and pink speaking with moogle): I hear you hunted down the Rogue Tomato and even made it over to the clan hall. Coming along fast, kid.

The Sandsea

Rabanastran/Gatsly: I’m at my wit’s end. If that shipment doesn’t get through… I don’t know what I’ll do. There has to be a hunter out there who’ll do it…

Rabanastran (man sitting at table with woman): I saw you lookin’ at the notice board a while back. How did your hunt go? Well, I’m glad to hear it! You started your next hunt yet? Let me know how it turns out!

Barkeep (woman in white standing by notice board): Never hurts to keep a close eye on the notice board. At worst, you can look over your current hunts, and at best, you may find a new one!

Tavernmaster: How are things with you, Vaan? With all the food and drink orders for the fete, I can’t complain, heh heh.

Tomaj: Ah, Vaan! Defeated that Rogue Tomato, did you? I was worried you might not be ready just yet, but you did a fine job of it! Here. Your bounty for completing the hunt.

[If you visited the Clan Hall after he gave you the Primer...]

Oh, I hear you stopped by the clan hall. You’re one shrewd customer. I’m sure you heard all manner of things from the other hunters, but just take your time to ease into it and you’ll do fine.

[If you didn't visit the Clan Hall...]

You followed through on that hunt like a real professional. I'm gonna let you in on a little something to help you along... Did you ever notice a bangaa standing watch in front of a building in the North End? It might be worth your time to pay him a visit. Show him the clan primer I gave you. He'll let you inside. As for what's there... you'll just have to go see for yourself.

[After this, Tomaj will go back to his "Hi, Vaan. Something I can help you with?" dialogue.]

Rabanastran (black bangaa at bar with Tomaj): ‘Course I didn’t watch the parade. What’s the point in watchin’ the Imperials march about, proud as they please?

Barkeep (man in brown shorts near foot of stairs): Now that the gates are open again, I went to collect some goods, but I, uh, encountered a slight difficulty. Entirely my own fault. I was supposed to go to Giza Plains, but I left by the east gate instead of the south gate. (sigh) What a waste of time.

Sotted Imperial: Just who do you think you are? The balcony is reserved for the Imperial watch. You can toast the new consul from downstairs, boy.

Yugri’s Magicks

Rabanastran (woman in blue, yellow, and white): I’m studying magick so I can protect myself, if I must. It’s not that I don’t trust the new consul, but we each have a duty to keep our city safe.

Panamis’s Protectives

Lively Bangaa: We’re talking about this new consul. He seems a not-so-bad fellow, well-informed and capable.

Rabanastran (man browsing curio): The Consul has gotten off on the right foot. I’ve high expectations of him.

Panamis: Interest you in a piece of armor? If there’s aught to your liking, I’ll have it brought ‘round. But don’t dawdle, I’ve plans for the evening. [shop menu]

Amal’s Weaponry

Imperial/Sherral: Fortunately, His Excellency the Consul has arrived without incident. Naturally, I kept up my weapons inspection throughout the ceremony. A moment of weakness or indiscretion can undo a lifetime’s work. History’s replete with examples of such. Our duty is to enforce the law unerringly.

Amal: Welcome, welcome! I’ll be closing the store early tonight… Special circumstances, you know. Heh, heh. Should be quite an evening, yes. [shop menu]

Migelo’s Sundries

Rabanastran (woman in pink with headscarf): Don’t the Imperials have better things to spend money on than parades? How about putting some meat in our stewpots for starters?

Rabanastran (woman in pink, green, and tan): Migelo was really groveling at the ceremony. Embarrassing it was, yes, but you get the feeling he was only doing what he had to do. There are times to wear your pride, and there are times to swallow it. The trick is recognizing which is which.

Penelo: Migelo’s out getting ready for the fete. Do you think he’ll really call the new consul by his first name? I think he’d sooner die.

Rabanastran (orange seeq): Hrmph. This consul sounds a mite better than the last. ‘Course, I won’t believe it till I see it.

Rabanastran (man speaking with bangaa): Let’s see, what is it you’ve got bubbling away in that head of yours… Maybe you’re planning to sneak into the fete tonight, eh? Ha ha! Of course you aren’t! Even you wouldn’t do something as foolhardy as that.
