Dialogue[edit]

Ascalon
Make yourself comfortable. All are welcome in our camp.
Talk more option tango.png What is this place?
In this time of upheaval, we've created a retreat for animals out in the Fields of Ruin. It would be shameful to fight for the land and ignore the land's living parts.
Talk more option tango.png What upheaval?
Since the cease fire, charr are pulling out of the area, and humans are spreading into the vacancy. In the meantime, the Foulbear ogres are trying to claim land for themselves.
Talk more option tango.png Aren't you worried, so close to Otyugh's Kraal?
From what I have seen, Otyugh has no interest in land. His only goals are to find and tame unique pets. He protects them like a mother bear protects her cubs.
Talk end option tango.png Just be careful.
Talk end option tango.png Sounds complicated.
Talk more option tango.png Why are you doing this?
In my Dream, I saw a forest filled with creatures, each one slowly slipping into shadow. I'm called to learn all I can about how animals live in nature so I can help preserve that life.
Talk end option tango.png Good luck with that.
Talk end option tango.png That's nice. Good-bye.
Talk end option tango.png Good to know.
During the Defend Cymbel and Nia from the ogres trying to steal their pets event
This place is a refuge! Please, help us drive the ogres out!
Talk end option tango.png I'm on it!
After successfully completing the Defend Cymbel and Nia from the ogres trying to steal their pets event
Thank you for helping us drive off those misguided ogres. I am all the more certain that what we do here is worthwhile.
Talk more option tango.png You're welcome. Mind if I stay awhile? (Returns to standard dialogue)
Talk end option tango.png I'm glad to have helped. Good-bye.
During the Help Nia rescue Cymbel's hounds event
Ogres from Otyugh's Kraal invaded our refuge and stole my sylvan hounds. My partner, Nia, went to retrieve them. I am filled with worry for all of them.
Tick green.png Show me where they went.
The ogres would have taken them south into Wildlin Narrows. That is where Otyugh keeps his pets. Please, I don't want anything unpleasant to befall them.
Talk end option tango.png South. Got it.
Talk end option tango.png Hope it turns out okay.
After successfully completing the Help Nia rescue Cymbel's hounds event
I was sick with worry while Nia was gone in search of our lost hounds. You have my deepest thanks for helping her to return to me.
Talk more option tango.png You're welcome. Mind if I stay awhile? (Returns to standard dialogue)

Chuka and Champawat[edit]

With Chuka and Champawat III: Tigris active (before completing any event involving her hounds, with no events active)
Legendary Weapons (achievements).png I was hoping to talk to you about tigers.
You're a hunter? My calling is to preserve life, not aid in taking it.
Talk more option tango.png My hunt has given me a new respect for life.
I will not trust your words alone.
Talk end option tango.png I'll prove it to you.
Talk end option tango.png I'll go then.
With Chuka and Champawat III: Tigris active (before completing any event involving her hounds, during the Help Nia rescue Cymbel's hounds event)
Ogres from Otyugh's Kraal invaded our refuge and stole my sylvan hounds. My partner, Nia, went to retrieve them. I am filled with worry for all of them.

Talk end option tango.png South. Got it.
Legendary Weapons (achievements).png I'd like to talk to you about tigers.
Does it look like I have time for that?
Tick green.png You're right, I'm sorry. I'll help you first. (Same as "Show me where they went")
Talk end option tango.png I'll come back when you have more time.
Talk end option tango.png Hope it turns out okay.
With Chuka and Champawat III: Tigris active (after completing any event involving her hounds)
Thank you for your help. I think I was too quick to judge you... It's clear you share my respect for animals. What is it you want to know? (receives Cymbel's Trust)
Legendary Weapons (achievements).png I want to learn more about tigers.
In all of Tyria, I expect few have spent as much time with tigers as you, but you saw them with a hunter's eyes. You need to see them through their own eyes.
Talk more option tango.png How do I do that?
All you need is the right frame of mind, and you have that. If you go back to where you started and investigate with this new perspective, I think you'll find the answers you seek.
Talk more option tango.png So I should retrace my hunt?
Exactly. Oh! You could even keep a journal like before. Bring me a book like the one you had, and we'll get started!
(If you have Crude Leather Book in your inventory)
Talk give option tango.png I have one already.
Excellent! I'll just write a few notes, and you can be on your way. This is [sic] should be an interesting experience...
Tick green.png I'm excited to get started! (receives Naturalist's Journal)
Talk end option tango.png I'll return with one.
Talk end option tango.png That sounds like way too much work.
Talk end option tango.png I don't have time for this.
With Chuka and Champawat III: Naturalist's Journal active before turning in Naturalist's Journal: Entry 15
You've been gone a while. Did you find what you were seeking?
Talk more option tango.png I found more. A litter of cubs. They're barely alive! Can you help them?
Oh! Look at them, they're tiny! Yes, of course I'll help them!
Talk more option tango.png I found them abandoned.
Once they're stronger, you should raise them. I'll help you, of course, whenever you need it.
Talk more option tango.png I'd like that.
How exciting! I've never raised a tiger cub before.
Talk end option tango.png Take good care of them for me. I'll be back soon. (receives Completed Naturalist's Journal)
Talk more option tango.png I killed their mother...
Ah. Respect for life can be hard lesson to learn, but worthwhile if you put this new perspective to good use.
Talk more option tango.png What should I do with the cubs? (Same as "I found them abandoned" above)
Talk end option tango.png I don't have time for this.
Talk end option tango.png We'll talk later.
Talk end option tango.png We'll talk later.
After completing Chuka and Champawat III: Naturalist's Journal
Don't worry, the cubs are fine. They'll be healthy and strong before you know it.
Talk end option tango.png They're doing fine.
With Chuka and Champawat IV: A Nontraditional Family active, and no items acquired yet
I've been thinking... The cubs are tiny now, but that won't last. This little refuge will soon seem cramped to them.
Talk more option tango.png What do you have in mind?
We need to find a place that's spacious, remote, and more friendly for tigers. I've written down some potential locations.
Tick green.png Let's take a look. (receive List of Secluded Locations and unlock its collection)
Talk end option tango.png On second thought, now's not the best time.
With Chuka and Champawat IV: Secluded Tour active with all 8 locations scouted
Have you found a suitable location yet?
Talk more option tango.png I found a great location in the Hidden Garden.
Excellent! That settles it. (receives Comprehensive Feasibility Report)
Talk more option tango.png You look like you have something on your mind.
The opportunity to observe tigers from such a young age is extremely rare. I'd like to capture and preserve it.
Talk more option tango.png Go on.
I know the memory will become party of the Dream, but it's not the same. I want to share this with everyone.
Talk more option tango.png I feel the same.
That's why I want to ask you to write it all down somewhere. Could I ask you to craft another book?
Talk end option tango.png Sure.
Talk end option tango.png Thank you for your help.
Talk end option tango.png There are still more places to evaluate.
With Chuka and Champawat IV: A Nontraditional Family active, Tiger Den Map acquired but no Baby Book
Do you have the book?
Talk give option tango.png I have one here.
Excellent! Do you mind if I add a few notes of my own first?
Legendary Weapons (achievements).png Of course not. (receives Baby Book)
Talk end option tango.png Not yet.
With Chuka and Champawat IV: Baby Book active
There are many things a tiger should know in order to survive. Normally, I suspect they'd learn these things from their mother, but with her gone...
Talk more option tango.png I've been thinking about this as well.
Animals often learn by example. If you were to demonstrate something in the cubs' presence, I'm sure they'd pick it up.
Talk more option tango.png Any thoughts on what they should learn?
Several. If you bring me another book, I can write them down for you.
Talk end option tango.png Sure. (receives Cymbel's Baby Book Notes)
Talk end option tango.png Let me get back to you on that.
With Chuka and Champawat IV: A Nontraditional Family active, Completed Baby Book acquired but no Tiger Training Guide
Do you have the book?
(If you have Crude Leather Book in your inventory)
Talk give option tango.png I have one here.
Perfect! Give me a moment to jot some things down...
Talk more option tango.png OK...
Done! Now go, your cubs are waiting.
Tick green.png Take care. (receives Tiger Training Guide)
Talk end option tango.png Not yet.
After acquiring certain items
Do you have the book?
Talk more option tango.png I misplaced my Naturalist's Journal.
A traveler gave me a journal that she found along the roadside. Perhaps it's yours?
Tick green.png It is, thank you! (receives Naturalist's Journal)
Talk end option tango.png No, that must be someone else's.
Talk more option tango.png I lost your tiger care notes. (if your character does not have the recipes from Cymbel's Baby Book Notes unlocked)

Quotes[edit]

If you kill Timid Hyena
You brute! I almost had him tamed.
After the success of Help Nia rescue Cymbel's hounds
Thank you. I feel whole again.
