Life Master of...Everything?

ButterflyHello!

GladstoneWell, it's about time! What took you two so long?

GladstoneYour clumsy footsteps have been clogging up my cochleas for an eternity, it seems!

ButterflyYou heard our footsteps coming up the mountain?!

GladstoneSure did! You sound like an elephant tryin' to get airborne by flappin' his ears in a china shop!

GladstoneSo. Whaddya want? C'mon, I ain't got all day. Got crafts to craft and then sit on later.

ButterflyWell, we hadn't really had a chance to say hello properly, so we thought we'd drop by...

GladstoneOho!

GladstoneAren't you a kind little butterfly! Coming to talk to a poor old man like me with no motive for yourself.

GladstoneSo generous to spend your time with me. Do you like games? How about Pin the Tail on the Butterfly?

ButterflyI don't like the sound of that.

GladstoneRelax, little flapper. I'm joking! Can't you tell— Bah! Lepidopterans never had a good sense of humor.

GladstoneIf you wanna spend some time with me, I can show you a few of the projects I'm working on.

ButterflyIt looks like you have quite a bit going on here.

GladstoneYep, there is indeed much to be seen here.

Butterfly*Much more than we need to see.* HA!

GladstoneWhat was that? Did you say something, butterfly?

GladstoneI was about to impart some knowledge to you about one of my many areas of expertise...

GladstoneBut if you're already good at mining, cooking, needlework, carpentry, alchemy, and smithing... Well then, I guess I just may be boring you.

GladstoneI suppose you wouldn't even be interested in my pilot's license or the fact that I can read the future!

ButterflyYou can what?! Really? I mean, if that's true, do you know what's going on with Lunares? How will it end?

GladstoneAh, so you do pay some attention to the world. Yes, the light of Lunares has served Reveria for eons.

GladstoneIt can be a bit of an oracle. If one knows how to read it, that is. The changes are oh-so slight.

ButterflySo...what is it telling you? What do you see?

GladstoneSomething very, very bad, my little friend.

ButterflyPlease tell me you're joking again.

ButterflyI promise I'll get it this time.

GladstoneI'm afraid not. The omen is not a fortuitous one.

GladstoneIt pains me to say it, but... Oh, how should I put this?

GladstoneWe are all in deep, deep doo-doo.

GladstoneI saw something fall from Lunares. Something unlike anything I've seen in all of my years.

GladstoneI can't describe it, because everything quickly went black...almost as if it were all a dream.

ButterflyThis doesn't sound good at all.

Gladstone[Player], I feel you and your friend here are destined for something great. Please take this.

ButterflyIs that some sort of magical garment that will keep us safe?

GladstoneNo, it's just a Cape. It's too big for me.

GladstoneYou really are kind of high strung for a butterfly.

GladstoneAnyway, I run a small shop when I'm feeling the urge.

GladstoneIf you've got some Dosh to burn, go ahead and burn it here! Ha ha ha! Not literally, of course. I'd be very upset if anything happened to my cabin.
