The Fledgling Miner 30
Oh. Hello, Jock.
And who's this? One of my husband's little
two-timers in training?
That man... Honestly!
He says he's out mining...but I know what he's really
up to!
I went to the Crown, and what did I see?
Duglas hugging another woman!
And of all the days! It just had to be on our
anniversary!
You're still young, Rocque. Don't you dare follow his
example, you hear me?
You're a good boy, Rocque. Now how can I
help you?
The Beginner's Pickaxe?
Yes, he did leave it here. Here you go.
The wrong idea? I don't think so! I think I have
exactly the right idea!
Oh, you "lugged the wrong hady," all right!
Something you wanted to give me? And WHAT, pray
tell, would that be?
...Hmph.
If there was an award for biggest liar, you'd win the
Reveria world record.
You're not only dishonest, you're a cheat and...and
a coward!
I have had it with you, Duglas! I'm leaving!
Just what are you so excited about? This isn't exactly
a party, you know!
F-for me?
Oh, my... It's so beautiful!
What's this? An engraving...
Why, it's the exact date we were married! I can't
believe you actually remembered!
So it was all true? You just got confused?
I'm so sorry I doubted you, my dear, sweet man.
Thank you, honey. I can see how this whole thing was
just a misunderstanding.
Rocque, be sure to drop in from time to time.
Don't be a stranger, OK?
And, dear, don't you have something you need to
tell [Player]?
You're hopeless, dear... But you try, and that's all
that matters!
Not just good—it was positively PERFECT, Duglas.
Sometimes I can't help but wonder what that other
woman is like...

Oh, what's this?
Do you have a delivery for me?
No?
Then how can I help you?
Oh! You're Duglas's new assistant!
Then you must want the pickaxe...
Boy, do I feel bad for you. You're assistant
to Reveria's number-one liar.
That so-called Master of yours...
He's a two-timing jerk, you know.
Off hugging another woman at the Crown...
And on our anniversary, of all days!
Huh? Oh. Oh, yes, right...
The pickaxe...
I'm so sorry. I'm more than a little
frustrated over this whole thing...
*ahem* Yes, well... Here is your pickaxe.
Good luck with your Master.
The wrong idea? I don't think so!
I think I have exactly the right idea!
Oh, it's no misunderstanding,
you big, fat liar!
Something you wanted to give me?
And WHAT, pray tell, would that be?
...
You see?!
Once a big, fat liar,
always a big, fat liar!
Just what are you so excited about?
This isn't exactly a party, you know!
What nonsense are you trying
to pull over on me now? I...
Oh, my...
It's so beautiful!
I-is this...?
Oh, Duglas...
Oh, Duglas, you really are forgetful...
It's a good thing you're so adorable.
I wonder who that husband of mine is
hugging behind my back...
Duglas's House 1
My husband is a Miner, you know! Oh, but I haven't
seen him in a while...
I think he's probably mining away somewhere on
Mount Snowpeak.
Chat 22
The wind that blows down from Mount Snowpeak is
such a blessing when I'm drying the laundry.
Mount Snowpeak? That's the huge mountain located
to the north of Castele. You can't miss it.
My husband is a Miner—Miner Master, in fact.
Oh, the fun he used to have digging up all sorts of
gemstones and ore... He simply loved it!
But lately, his Master duties have been growing and
growing. He doesn't have time for fun anymore.
And believe me, he's not much of a multitasker...
Oh, you're my husband's new pupil, right? Well
congratulations on finding a Life!
Here's a little something from me. Mining can be a
bit dirty, but a Life is a Life!
I know Duglas can be quite a handful... And he's very
forgetful and VERY loud...
but he's actually quite a sweet man.
I'm a little busy right now. We'll talk later, hm?
Say, ￩*
Minty Ore isn't something you just throw away!
You can make perfectly good toothpaste from it.
It's an important ore if you like shiny teeth!
Why, if it isn't ￩*
Don't forget, now. My older brother works in
Port Puerto.
If you're ever there and need a hand, please don't
hesitate to look him up, OK?
His name is Manny— Er, I mean, Manuel. You'll find
him at Snoot's Emporium, most likely.
I wonder how little Jock is doing in Al Maajik... Wait.
Jock? Rock? Oh, yes—it's Rocque, right?
Worried? Hee hee! You must not know him very well.
He's the last person I'd ever be worried about.
That boy has a better head on his shoulders than
either I or my husband had at his age.
Be sure to say hi to Rocque for me if you're ever in
Al Maajik!
Nicely done on becoming an Expert! Could I ask
you something?
Umm...hello? Yes, I'm talking to you! You really don't
speak much, do you?
I've often heard my husband and Daniel going on
about how fossils are "brotastic" and "brahsome"...
Umm...would you happen to know why fossils would
be so exciting that they'd make up words for them?
I bet you'd find some fossils if you try mining in the
Cave of Bones. I mean, hello? It's in the name.
But are dirty, old fossils really that interesting?
Honestly. I'll never understand those two...
I'm told the Cave of Bones is located in the Aridian
Desert, just outside of Al Maajik.
You're bound to find some, uh..."seriously bro-rific"
fossils there. According to my husband.
Hey, I married him. Doesn't mean I understand him.
Oh, congratulations on becoming a Master! My
husband can't stop talking about you, you know!
What? Did the big oaf NOT give you a reward?!
In that case, here. Take this. It's one late piddle
grickaxe, that's for sure!
...Oh dear. Um... Great little pickaxe, I mean.
I'm so sorry! I can't believe I'm picking up my
husband's silly habits. Honestly!
Right. Yes. Anyway. Here's your reward! A Lava
Pickaxe. See? I told you it was great!
I apologize for my verbal blunder earlier.
To think I scold Duglas when he spaces out like that
on me. *sigh*
I heard from Duglas that there's special equipment
called Heroic gear.
I wonder if it comes with a cape. Because you can't
be a Hero without a cape, right?
So this Hero rank... What exactly does that entail?
You're technically a Heroic Miner, right?
Do you heroically save people? From evil rocks
trying to take over Reveria or what?
So you're a Legend now? I hope folks aren't still
calling you Apprentice, then...
Oh my! You've reached the rank of Legend! This
means a lot to my husband.
It means he trained a Legend-rank Miner!
Wh-what? Creator...rank?
But that's not a real thing, is it?
Umm... H-here's a little something for the time being.
It may be small, but believe me, it packs quite
a punch.
...I still don't quite understand. Just what kind of rank
is that?
I'm sorry. I just have so many questions about the
Creator rank.
I'll have to remember to ask Duglas about it later.
You reached Creator rank? Well, good for you! It's
nice to have goals.
...
What's with that look?
Were you expecting a bigger reaction? Hee hee!
Trust me, dear, with a husband like mine, rarely
anything surprises me anymore.
Although there was that one time when he got his
head stuck in a bucket...
Creator rank? My, it certainly sounds exciting!
It's so nice when Miners like you take Life by the
handle and make something of themselves!
