Dialogue[edit]
- This is a dangerous land you've come to. We face everything from devourers to the Flame Legion—daily.
- Sounds dangerous all right.
- Oh, it is! I've got my inventions to keep me busy, but I still take my life into my hands out there.
- What inventions?
- My most recent is the metal detector. You can use it to find scrap metal beneath the ground! Amazing, no?
- That's pretty amazing. Hope to see it in action. Bye.
- I bet. Good-bye.
- Have you any inventions to combat them?
- Actually, I do! I've got a great thumper turret that I can sell you, if you are interested.
- Let's have a look.
- Good to know. Bye.
- During Gather scrap metal for Balint using his metal detector
- I'm in need of scrap metal from the canyons ahead so I can build a devourer attractor to rescue the captain from her fiery prison.
- Is this what you are looking for?
- It is! Go get more, if you dare! I haven't got all day!
- You're welcome.
- And how does one get this scrap metal?
- Take one of my metal detectors and examine the ground in the canyon. Watch out for devourers, though!
- Devourers?
- They'll eat anything and hide anywhere. Once we've gathered enough, I can try and rescue the captain from the Flame Legion.
- Captain? same as "Captain?" below
- I'll do what I can.
- Can do.
- Captain?
- Yeah, the Flame Legion got their hands on her and now she's trapped in a cage. If we can just take down their defenses we can save her.
- What was that about scrap metal? same as "And how does one get this scrap metal?"
- What defenses?
- They've got a pair of effigies patrolling. If we can summon a giant devourer to take them down, the path will be clear.
- I'll see what I can do.
- Bye.
- Bye.
