Treacherous Thermadon[]
Quest DescriptionYou should only go adventuring after making sure that you're fully prepared! You and Bennett prepare some food before you challenge the Deserted Ruins of Thermadon.
- (Talk to Bennett)
- Bennett: It feels pretty ordinary here... I was expecting some kind of sense of impending doom.
- Bennett: Could it be that because you're here with me, I'm feeling more at ease? Hehe...
- Bennett: Ahh, it looks like... the door in the front is closed and only the door behind us is open...
- Bennett: That mechanism must be for opening the next door, right?
I think so.- Well, that's pretty much our only option.
- Bennett: Right. Well, we're on the same page at least.
- Bennett: I'll go try to operate it.
- (Bennett activates the mechanism which opens the doors while closing the doors behind them)
- Bennett: Just as I expected, hehe.
But now the door behind us is closed...- Bennett: Ah, so it is...
- Bennett: Hmm... a true adventurer can't just barge on forward. It's also important to make sure there is a way back. That's what my dads always say.
- Bennett: Lemme try the mechanism one more time...
- Mechanical Device: *clicking sounds*
- Bennett: Hmm, it seems to be... jammed.
- Not what I expected, but not exactly unexpected.
- Bennett: This is not good... It seems that we can't get back the way we came.
- Does that mean... we're locked in here?
- Bennett: I think so, at least, it seems that way for now...
- Bennett: But, don't let it get you down!
- Bennett: This kind of thing happens all the time. We just have to believe that there's always a way out.
- ???: What the... What's going on...
- Bennett: Hey, did you hear that?
- Bennett: Sounded like it came from the door up ahead of us... Could there be other people in the ruin, too?
- Bennett: Let's go check it out!
- (Interact with the Mechanical Device)
- Mechanical Device: This mechanism makes clacking, whirring noises. It appears to be stuck.
- (Follow Bennett into the next room)
- Bennett: Over there, another adventurer by the looks of it.
- (Talk to Bennett after following him to the other adventurer)
- Bennett: Hello, fellow adventurer! We, like you, are here to—
- Royce: ...BENNETT!?
- Bennett: Ah— Royce...!? It's you!
- Royce: Oh no, oh please, oh no, no, no...
- Bennett: I'm so happy to see you again! How are you doing? I've been thinking about you and the other guild members a lot recently...
- Royce: This is the worst! Ugh... Why did I have to run into you...
- Bennett: Oh...
- Royce: It took me forever to get this door open! Finally, I was about to advance further in, and all of a sudden... it closes again.
- Bennett: Ah, I guess that's because I activated the mechanism just now...
- Royce: I knew it, I knew it! Of course it was you, I knew it as soon as I saw you.
- Royce: As long as you are around, no adventure can ever be a smooth ride! Ugh... This is turning into a very bad day...
- That's a bit harsh, isn't it?
- How can you blame it all on someone else?
- Royce: Who are you? And what the heck were you thinking, teaming up with Bennett!
- Bennett: Hey! Don't fight, don't fight...
- Bennett: (TravelerTraveler), let me introduce Royce, a former member of Benny's Adventure Team, and... and old friend of mine.
- Royce: Friend!? I didn't even tell you I was leaving the team, and you still think of me as... your friend...?
- Royce: Ugh, never mind, I'm a little on edge because of what just happened. I'm sorry.
- Bennett: Well, it was my fault... haha...
- Royce: Ya think? *sigh* I left because at that time, I really couldn't stand it a second longer. My adventures always used to go off without a hitch...
- Royce: But after joining your adventure team, I was tripping and falling one day, getting struck by lightning the next— Oh, and the number of times ruins would cave in on us...
- Royce: I just couldn't dismiss it as "mere coincidence" anymore...
- Royce: The last straw was when my left leg got hit by that random explosion that came out of nowhere. After that, I couldn't stand it anymore... both literally and figuratively. *sigh* So I left... and went back to being an independent adventurer...
- Royce: Only afterward did I start hearing the horror stories about Benny's Adventure Team... *sigh*
- Bennett didn't volunteer for this bad luck.
- Royce: ...You're right, I really shouldn't have put the blame on him like that.
- So that's why you left him?
- Royce: I didn't think about it much at the time, I was just focused on my own survival, but... there was no other way...
- Bennett: Alright, alright, it's all in the past now. Talking about all the bad things that happened will only make you more upset, right?
- Bennett: Um... Royce... I still want to say sorry for all the trouble I caused you.
- Royce: Oh... no need to apologize to me. I have made my fair share of mistakes, too...
- Bennett: Oh! Yeah... there's one more thing I need to tell you. The door we came through on the way in also got closed, and... I don't think we can get it open again.
- Bennett: So we're probably trapped here now. What a pain in the butt, haha...
- Royce: ...
- Royce: BENNETT!!!
- Royce: Ugh! Everything always goes wrong when I'm with you!
- Bennett: Oh... well... there's nothing I can do... sorry.
- Royce: Ugh, what am I gonna do!? I've used up all of my supplies already!
- Royce: This is it... This is how I go, isn't it...? Here, today, and all because of Bennett... *whimpers*
- Bennett: Well... I don't know what I could do to apologize. If you don't mind, maybe we can share some of our supplies with you.
- Bennett: Ah, but of course, I'll have to check with my partner first. So, what do you think?
- You cooked it, you can do whatever you want with it. (This dialogue option leads to Ending: Taste Tester Royce.)
- Royce: Ugh... alright... I am quite hungry. I supposed I shall accept your kind offer.
- Royce: ...Is this the "supplies" you were talking about? Why do i have the feeling that this dish is... a bit suspect?
- Bennett: It's fine, honestly! It's been with my partner all along, so it shouldn't be tainted with my bad luck...
- Royce: If that's true then... okay. Anyway, this is not a time to nitpick.
- Royce: Then... I guess I'll just have... little bite..
- Royce wolfs down his Ominous Dish...
- Royce: Hmm, tastes a little... Huh, what a strange texture... Ugh, what is that churning feeling in my stomach...
- Royce: ...B—Bennett...
- (Royce falls to the ground)
- Bennett: Hey, what's wrong? Royce!
Ending: Taste Tester Royce
Taste Tester Royce Aether Lumine
Should you say that it was... fortunate that Royce ate that first?
- No way. You don't owe him anything. (This dialogue option leads to Ending: Ready to Make Sacrifices.)
- Bennett: But it was because of my bad luck, though...
- This is why you should focus on yourself more.
- Stop trying to accommodate others all the time.
- Bennett: So you mean... as the unlucky one, I should think of myself more...
- Bennett, you did nothing wrong.
- If you only think about caring for others, who will take care of you?
- Bennett: Heh... you do have a point there...
- Bennett: It's just, I've been used to thinking this way for a long time. Hearing you say that, though, I feel like maybe I do need to take better care of myself.
- Bennett: Uh... I'm sorry Royce, we'll have to keep the rest of our supplies for ourselves. But, let's try to find a way out together.
- Royce: Hmph, nobody cares about your supplies. Knowing you, they're probably cursed anyway!
- Royce: As for finding the exit together — count me out!
- Royce: With Bennett around, I'm sure any exit I find will only be blocked!
- Bennett: Well... then take care, Royce.
- Royce: You—
- Royce: *sigh* ...You take care too Bennett.
- (Interact with the Door)
- Door: The door is shut tightly... There seems to be no way to open it.
- (After activating each mechanism)
- Bennett: Ah, that was so dangerous!
- Bennett: I can't believe it, it's a trap...
- Bennett: Hmm... Uh... Nope, no luck here.
- Bennett: Aww... What awful luck.
- (After activating all mechanisms)
- Bennett: I've checked every single nook and cranny in this place...
- Bennett: Aww... Still not a clue.
- Bennett: Is there really no way out of here apart from that broken mechanism?
- I'm afraid so...
- Bennett: Well, guess our only hope now is to wait for help.
- Bennett: The Adventurers' Guild might notice our disappearance and send someone.
- Bennett: Then again, that depends on how lucky we are... If the rescue team takes too long to find us, we might already be...
- Bennett: Ugh, I hate feeling helpless, sitting here waiting for the end to come...
- ...You really have zero expectations when it comes to luck.
- What if help does arrive in time?
- Bennett: Hmm... Yeah, I am being a bit too pessimistic. No, come on, this isn't like me.
- Bennett: Okay, let's double-check our supplies. Our priority right now is figuring out how long we can hold out.
- Bennett: Take out the dish I packed.
- Bennett: Huh... it's probably a little late for this, but...
- Bennett: ...It looks kinda strange. Hmm, was there really something wrong with my cooking?
- Hate to say, I told you so...
- You might get food poisoning if you eat it.
- Bennett: Ah! This is bad. This is all we've got in terms of supplies.
- Bennett: I should have thought this through more...
- Bennett: Hey, wait a minute...
- Bennett: ...
- Bennett: Maybe we can find another use for it...
- Like what?
- Bennett: Long story short...
- Bennett: I once got injured when I was in this severely dangerous place and I got knocked unconscious. I really thought that was going to be the end of me.
- Bennett: But, turns out that's not how it went. Instead, according to Guild Master Cyrus who rescued me...
- Bennett: After I lost consciousness, it was as if my bad luck just stopped affecting me. He took me back to Mondstadt without encountering any trouble at all along the way.
- Bennett: And another time, I got knocked out in the field during a thunderstorm, but then I went the whole night without getting struck by lightning...
- Bennett: I wonder if my bad luck is related to whether I'm awake or not. Or in other words, it might be my consciousness that brings me bad luck.
- You mean... you want to sacrifice yourself?
- Bennett: Not really a sacrifice. I was just thinkin'...
- Bennett: Maybe if I eat this strange dish... it's possible that I'll lose consciousness, right?
- Bennett: Once my bad luck is gone, surely help will be here soon!
- No, you're sacrificing yourself for others again...
- Bennett, no way, that's just too tragic!
- Bennett: Hehe, it's okay. It's better than dragging you and Royce down with me.
- Bennett: You made a great point earlier when you said that I should take better care of myself, but right now, this is a life-or-death situation. Hope you can understand.
- Bennett: Here goes!
- Bennett!
- Bennett wolfs down his Ominous Dish...
Ending: Ready to Make Sacrifices

You shook misfortune off for a time, but the price for it was...
