In the Master's Image[]
- Beatrice: ...I'm sorry, Marjorie. I was focused solely on chatting with Quinn... I didn't see anything else at all.
- Beatrice: If you're out of other options, maybe you could get help from the knights? I'm sure if Master Jean heard about it, she'd help you find it in no time!
- Marjorie: Thanks. I'll check with a few more people first... If no one has seen it, then I guess I'll just have to ask the knights.
- Beatrice: Alright, well, I hope it turns up soon. Bye now.
- Marjorie: *sigh* Maybe I should just tell the Knights already...
- Noelle: Ms. Marjorie, are you in need of assistance?
- Marjorie: Oh, Noelle! Since you asked... I seem to have misplaced a monocle that I imported from Sumeru.
- Marjorie: I was organizing the stock that had just arrived, and because the monocle was so fragile, I took it out, wiped it, and put it aside.
- Marjorie: But then, I went to get it after I was done with the stock, and it was gone!
- Marjorie: I've asked around, but no one seems to have any idea where it could be...
Has anything like this happened before?
- Marjorie: Anything like this? Well... It's not completely unheard-of. You know my store — there are all sorts of exotic items...
- Marjorie: In the past, I've lost a carved wooden perch and some boneware, but as soon as I reported them missing to the Knights, they were recovered right away.
- Noelle: May I ask... Where were the missing items recovered from?
- Marjorie: Oh... The wooden perch was mistaken for a real fish by Margaret's cat, and as for the boneware... They eventually found that in a dog kennel somewhere outside the city.
Reminds me of some commissions once involving a missing cat and some tax returns...
With people calling on the knights for so many things, it's no wonder Jean is so busy...
- Noelle: Oh no... We mustn't increase Jean's workload any further!
- Noelle: Master Jean's time should be spent on more important things.
- Noelle: Ms. Marjorie... Would you mind letting me help you find the missing monocle?
- Noelle: I may not be as efficient as Master Jean, but I will do my very best to help you find it!
I will help too.
- Marjorie: Oh? Of course that's okay. ...Isn't asking Noelle the same thing as asking the Knights?
- TravelerTraveler), I'd better gather some more information before heading out. Noelle: Heh... (
- Noelle: As well as confirming some details regarding the monocle itself... We should find out as much as possible from Marjorie about the circumstances under which it went missing.
- Marjorie: So, do you have some ideas on where to start? Ask me whatever you wanna know, I'll answer to the best of my memory.
What can you tell us about the missing item?
- Marjorie: The missing item... Well, it's a monocle, to start with. And since it came from Sumeru, the design should be fairly recognizable.
- Marjorie: As for other distinguishing features... it's very light and it's very small...
Did you see anything?
- Marjorie: Hmm... I had my head down, and I was busy working through the stock. I didn't see anything that was going on around me...
- Marjorie: But this street is so busy that surely someone would have noticed if it had been stolen?
Did you hear anything?
- Marjorie: Oh! Now that you mention it... I do remember hearing some kind of flapping sound...
- Marjorie: The sound went as soon as it came, and I was focused on checking if anyone had seen anything, so I didn't give it too much thought at the time... Do you think it could be connected?
Maybe we can investigate in the direction in which the noise disappeared.
- Marjorie: Hmm... I heard it first behind me, and then it seemed to fade out in a northwesterly direction. Now I wish I'd followed the sound and spoken to people along the way.
- TravelerTraveler), shall we go head in that direction and make some inquiries? Maybe we'll find some clues. Noelle: (
- (Talk to Marjorie again)
- Marjorie: Like I said, the noise was headed... northwest, I think? Good luck finding the monocle... I'm counting on you.
- (Talk to Alfry)
- Alfry: A missing monocle and a flapping sound? ...First I've heard of anything like that...
- (Talk to Margaret)
- Margaret: A missing monocle, you say? I don't recall my child bringing anything like that back home.
- (Talk to Raymond)
- Raymond: A flapping sound? Sorry, I wasn't on patrol nearby at the time of the incident... But if you need any backup, please send for me at any time.
- (Talk to Glory)
- Noelle: Excuse me, Glory. Have you heard anything that might be described as a flapping sound in this area recently?
- Noelle: Marjorie's monocle has gone missing from her shop. We are trying to look for clues...
- Glory: Flapping sound? Yes, I think so...
- Glory: I believe it was the sound of a finch flapping its wings.
- Glory: It sounded a lot heavier today than usual... as if it was carrying something.
- Noelle: So... Maybe the finch took the monocle back to its nest?
- TravelerTraveler)? Noelle: I've seen their nests in the past on occasion, while I'm cleaning the roof... What do you say we have a look, (
- Noelle: Finally, we have a lead to go on. Thank you, Glory!
- Glory: You are welcome! May you swiftly recover the lost item by the grace of the Anemo Archon.
- (Talk to Glory again)
- Glory: By the grace of the Anemo Archon, may you swiftly find the lost item.
- (Climb onto the rooftop and look for a Finch nest)
-
- (Interact with the wrong nest)
- Noelle: I don't think it's here...
- (Interact with the wrong nest)
- Noelle: Hmm... No, it doesn't seem to be here.
- (Interact with the correct nest)
- Noelle: We found it! This must be Miss Marjorie's missing monocle.
- Noelle: Let's take it back to her right away. I hope we haven't kept her waiting too long...
- (Talk to Marjorie)
- Noelle: Miss Marjorie, here. We found your monocle.
- Marjorie: Wow, you were so quick. How wonderful! I thought I wouldn't be hearing back for a few days yet.
A few days? That long?
- Marjorie: Sure, in the past when I've lost something and asked the Knights for help, it can take them a while to get around to it...
- Marjorie: After all, the Knights have all sorts of things to be getting on with, big and small. No matter how capable Jean might be, she can't be in two places at once, can she?
- Marjorie: Thanks to you, Noelle, we don't have to trouble the Knights with everything little thing that comes up.
- Marjorie: Heh, now I think about it... Noelle is basically like another Jean... In that sense, it really does feel like Jean can be in two places at once.
- Noelle: No, surely you can't be serious! How can I compare to Master Jean...
- Noelle: I can only help people with small things... like finding lost property.
- Marjorie: Aha, whether it's big or small, it's all the same to us: things we can't handle by ourselves.
- Marjorie: Noelle, once you've qualified as an official Knight... Will that mean you won't have time to help us anymore? I for one am going to miss you...
- Noelle: No, not at all. If I do become a knight in the future...
- Noelle: I will continue to help everyone with their problems!
- Marjorie: ...I was just kidding! Keep up the good work, Noelle!
- Marjorie: I am sure everyone in Mondstadt can't wait to see the kind of knight you become!
- Noelle: I... I will keep working hard!
- Marjorie: Thanks again! Ugh, I suppose I should put this in a secure place this time...
- Noelle: The kind of knight... that I become...
Noelle, you seem quite pleased!
- Noelle: Oh, d—do I? Um...
- Noelle: Yes... Maybe it's because I am not afraid anymore...
- Noelle: I've never dared to imagine myself as a knight before... I always feared that the higher my expectations, the more disappointed I will be if I don't live up to them...
- Noelle: But... Let's say I do become a knight in the future, maybe... Maybe I will simply continue to do the same things that I am doing right now?
- Noelle: It doesn't matter to me how small these things are, or how tiring...
- Noelle: I do these things not because I am a maid, but because of my own will.
Noelle, just be the kind of knight that you want to be.
- Noelle: Yes, there is no need to become someone else, nor worry about failing... As long as I perform better in my next exam than in my previous one...
- Noelle: ...Then one day, I will become a knight that I can be proud of.
