Dialogue[]
- (After completing The Exile: Blooming)
- Sabbah: Here for a chat? I've been wanting to talk to somebody.
This is a Sumeru Rose that I picked.
- (If this option has not been selected)
- (Submit Sumeru Rose)
- Sabbah: How I miss this sight... Here, your presents are ready too. Please, take them.
- Sabbah: They're all seeds of plants that won't grow here. If you have a yard somewhere else, you can watch them mature there.
- (Obtain Harra Fruit Seed ×3, Zaytun Peach Seed ×3 and Sumeru Rose Seed ×3)
- Which Darshan were you with, by the way?
- Sabbah: Oh, I could talk for three whole days about that!
- Sabbah: I was with Amurta and specialized in plant evolution, so you could say my work was evidence-based.
- Sabbah: That means it is impossible to reach new conclusions without new forms of evidence. Simply put, fossils are necessary for the study of historical plants.
- Sabbah: But there are only so many fossil samples available, and the Akademiya is limited in its ability to provide new ones.
- Sabbah: Those were the circumstances, yet the institute still demanded results.
- Sabbah: So some people would just take a previous study, revise or add something to it, and turn it in. You also find that quite pointless, right?
- Sabbah: In truth, we could make new discoveries for sure if we looked towards history and geography for new materials.
- Sabbah: Certain literary documents that Amurta would usually ignore could be used as well, though that would surely cross into Vahumana and Haravatat territory.
- Sabbah: I was not proficient in those fields, and requesting the related files was too troublesome, never mind working with their researchers...
- Sabbah: But I believe that if we could actually work together as a team, many questions of the past would finally be answered.
- Sabbah: It's a shame that we couldn't continue our collaboration attempts. I must say that people in Vahumana and Haravatat have very peculiar perspectives, though...
- Sabbah: I had to be very careful with my wording and phrasing in my submissions to them to avoid misunderstandings and misinterpretations.
- Sabbah: Before I was kicked out of the Akademiya, I was still in the middle of an argument with someone from Haravatat. Now I can't even do that...
- How's life in Aaru Village?
- Sabbah: It's alright. I have food and a roof over my head. All the essential things in life are taken care of.
- Sabbah: I was banished, after all, so I can't dream of having books and research instruments here.
- Sabbah: This place has been used as exiled scholars' banishing grounds for quite a while. Life is hard and practical here, so naturally, no one here is interested in academics or research.
- Sabbah: I'm certainly not the first exile, and probably won't be the last.
- Sabbah: All I can do is to learn to live with it.
- Sabbah: Ah, I just rambled for a long time... But it feels good.
- Sabbah: Before you got here, I really didn't have many friends, and it could get pretty lonely.
- Sabbah: Very few people in the village are into gardening.
- Sabbah: ...Well, that's not entirely true. An old man living to the north of the village also plowed a plot to grow flowers.
- Sabbah: I've visited him before. He's a slightly eccentric old man.
- Sabbah: I saw him planting stones, but he insisted that they were flowers, and even kicked me out.
- Sabbah: It must be lonely, living all by himself. I can understand that.
- Sabbah: You helped me with my Sumeru Roses... Maybe you can help him with his plants too.
- Sabbah: You and Paimon should visit him if you get a chance.
- (After completing A Gifted Rose)
- Sabbah: The Sumeru Roses we planted and the Golden Roses in Affan's nursery have both been growing nicely. Thank you so very much.
- Which Darshan were you in, by the way?
- Sabbah: Oh, I could talk for three whole days about that!
- Sabbah: I was with Amurta and specialized in plant evolution, so you could say my work was evidence-based.
- Sabbah: That means that it is impossible to reach new conclusions without new material. Simply put, historical samples are necessary to examine historical plants.
- Sabbah: But there are only so many fossil samples available, and the Akademiya is limited in its ability to provide new ones.
- Sabbah: Those were the circumstances, yet the institute still demanded results.
- Sabbah: So some people would just take a previous study, revise or add something to it, and turn it in. You also find that quite pointless, right?
- ...

- How's life in Aaru Village?
- Sabbah: Oh, I've been doing alright. Thanks for your concern.
- Sabbah: The neighbors have been very kind to me, and Affan swings around to chat often, so... I'm definitely a lot less lonely than I was before.
- Sabbah: Though I fear that I can't just get books or research equipment whenever I want, I believe that as long as I desire to seek knowledge, I shall find it, no matter where I am.
- Have a great day.
- Sabbah: You too. Safe travels.
