There was nothing for me to do today. So, I decided I would find a Crystalfly for you — to put in your hair. I thought that... it would look nice. The next thing I knew, I had caught several more than I intended. I hope you do not mind. If you wish to meet me, speak my name. ...I do not care much for birthdays and celebrations, and I do not wish to be around large groups of people. To be able to spend time with you is enough. | |

When You're Free... | |

Today, I walked alone on the beaches of the Guyun Stone Forest and picked up several Starconches along the way. I heard that they contain secrets and can be used to send messages. But when I put them to my ear, I heard no voice, just the hollow sound of the wind. No matter. The wrath of evil spirits, omens of calamity... and your voice. That's all I need to hear. When you're free, come talk to me about what you've heard from the Starconches. | |

I paid a visit to Moon Carver today. He was immediately alarmed and asked me if something important happened. ...I was simply following your advice and met up with an old friend I haven't seen in a while. As you know, I'm not the sociable type, so it took quite some explaining before I managed to clear his suspicion. I wasn't prepared to hear him say that... "Since you're here, why don't we ask Cloud Retainer to host a little get-together?" In the past, I might've refused. But compared to the reasons for the gathering, the taste of the food, or how the atmosphere feels like... I think of the people by my side as more important. Having you around would make even Qingxin feel like a treat. If you have time, would you like to come join us? | |

In My Dreams... | |

I've never liked dreaming. No matter what I see, I can neither control it nor easily escape. But recently... it's you that I keep seeing. All my dreams with you are of idle strolls and outings. Each time I awake, I can't help but wonder if I deserve to have such "sweet dreams"... Perhaps were I to see you in the waking world, I would find the answer? If you are willing to meet me, just speak my name. | |

I was purging evil spirits from Dihua Marsh today. I didn't expect to see marks of your swordsmanship left behind on the boulders... Of course, I harbor no doubts about your martial ability, but if you rely solely on your skills and keep throwing yourself into harm's way, none can guarantee your safe return every time. There are still many people in this world who care about you... On second thought, persuasion isn't my forte. Just take this instead. It's a turquoise I infused with adeptal energies. I trust it will keep you safe. | |

My birthday? No-one has celebrated it in a thousand years, so how did you... There is no need to fret. This was a human custom from the first. But if you must... let us go and have a bowl of almond tofu. | |
A vantage point to view the scenery together... This is the location you've chosen? The swirling sea of clouds will make for a beautiful sight to admire with you. You have my thanks. Why don't I use my Adeptus Art to swiftly scale the mountain? I think that the trip with you may create more memories. | |
This leaf was sticking to your clothes, so I removed it for you. You want to keep it? I see... Holding on to something that goes with the wind seems unnecessary. But... you can have it. | |
The people at Wangshu Inn claim that many tourists come to Dihua Marsh during this season. It might be that they wish to admire the scenery at a time when everything is flourishing. Even still, I have to stay alert. The monsters will be getting more active as well. There is nothing out of the ordinary about today, until I saw you in the distance. With that being so... After finishing this Almond Tofu, would you like to go on patrol with me? | |
We've known each other for a long time, so just act normal. No need for anything special. This place is unusually tranquil, and you can survey all of Dihua Marsh at a glance... Only you could have found such a place. This Qingxin is for you. Decorating your home with it would surely add a touch of freshness. | |
Resting on this boat together with you, listening to the sound of the wind rustling through the lotus leaves... It calms my spirit. So this is what mortals mean when they say to "kick back and relax." Hmm. It's a strange feeling... But having you here makes it feel less strange. |

"Almond Tofu and Grilled Tiger Fish... Do you think Xiao will like our surprise?" "Shh, not so loud, Paimon! Also, you're drooling onto the table!" | |
"Xiao! We brought freshly-made Almond Tofu, do you want to ea—" "Paimon, shhh..." | |
"After all this time I spent with you, it seems I unwittingly started to look forward to my own birthday too." "I'll take good care of your gift." | |
"..." "..." "...What is it?" "I... don't remember." | |
"You called out my name... just to celebrate my birthday? Hmph. Fine, I'll indulge you this time. Let's celebrate together." |
