Dialogue[]

Try your luck at the Saurian Relics Excavation Site!
- (Talk to Quipia)
- Quipia: Three hundred Mora entry fee...
Can I get a discount?
It's free if I beat you, right?
- Paimon: Hey, that's not how we normally do things!
- Quipia: The price is set by the Saurian Relics Association, and cannot be negotiated. As far as I know, this is already the cheapest excavation site, as it's been open the longest.
- Quipia: But nowadays, we sometimes get dreamers like you who want to try their luck.
- Quipia: After all, you never know! Maybe none of the hundreds and thousands of people who came before you had a good eye for treasure, and missed a priceless relic that only looks ordinary.
- Quipia: Many would pay 300 Mora for such a beautiful dream.
- Quipia: So, how lucky are you feeling? Do you believe you'll be the one to strike it rich?
- ("Little One""Little One"): Rrrooo... Rawr! Rawr! Raaawr!
My luck's never let me down.
I don't need that, I've got a lucky Saurian.
- Paimon: Feel like putting your luck to the test, ("Little One""Little One")?
- ("Little One""Little One"): Rawr!
- Paimon: He definitely looks up for it. And what's 300 Mora anyway? Paimon can handle that!
- Paimon: Being able to buy three rays of hope for that sum is kind of a steal, really!
- Quipia: Then I wish you all the best of luck.
- (Talk to Quipia again, optional)
- Quipia: What is it? There's no time limit, so take your time.
- (Investigate what ("Little One""Little One") digs up in the cage)
- Paimon: Ugh, we haven't found anything, at all...
- (Investigate what ("Little One""Little One") digs up near the bombs)
- Paimon: There's nothing here. Guess the area near the surface is basically no different from the world above...
- (Wait until ("Little One""Little One") digs up the switch)
- ("Little One""Little One"): Rawr!
- Paimon: Huh? Looks like a gadget used by some kind of mechanism...
- (After the Monetoo returns to its painting)
- Paimon: Huh? Sounds like something activating... Eek, watch out behind you!
- (After defeating the enemy)
- ("Little One""Little One"): Rawr!
- Paimon: This little ball... It looks kinda like a component or something. You like it?
- ("Little One""Little One"): Rrrah... Rawr!
- Paimon: Though we didn't dig it up, since we did find it here... It might be something really valuable!
- Paimon: Let's ask when we leave!
- (Leave the ruins)
- Quipia: How did it go?
- Paimon: ("Little One""Little One") found this...
- ("Little One""Little One"): Rawr!
- Quipia: Let me have a look... Not the most uncommon item, but still, a rare find. It is very well-preserved, with clearly-visible phlogiston flow patterns.
- Quipia: Yes... Would you be willing to part with it if I gave you 10,000 Mora?
- Paimon: Wha—!? Did we really find a priceless Saurian relic!?
- Paimon: Paimon just knew that ("Little One""Little One") was awesome, and would bring us good luck!
- Quipia: No, this isn't nearly as precious as you seem to think. Were you to take it to Association headquarters for appraisal, it'd clock in at around 5,000 Mora at most.
- Paimon: Paimon's not falling for that trick! If it's only worth 5,000, why are you willing to pay 10,000 for it?
- Quipia: That's because of the unique patterns on it. I'm quite taken with them. Though it may not be that valuable in the eyes of others, I'm willing to pay a bit extra for it.
- Quipia: You may call me eccentric, but you could also say it's just the nature of a collector.
- Paimon: Hmm... When you put it like that, Paimon gets you. And 10,000 is quite a lot compared to the entrance fee.
- Paimon: So, shall we trade it in for 10,000?
- ("Little One""Little One"): Wrroh... Rrrooo...
- Paimon: You don't seem too happy about that, ("Little One""Little One")... Do you wanna keep it for yourself?
- ("Little One""Little One"): Rrrah... Rawr!
Well, you were the one who found it.
Guess you wanna be a collector too, huh?
- Paimon: Since ("Little One""Little One") doesn't want to sell, then we'll just have to keep it.
- ("Little One""Little One"): Rawr!
- Quipia: Looks like you value ("Little One""Little One") far more than Mora.
- Paimon: Naturally! He's our companion, after all. But if we find something similar in the future...
- Quipia: Thank you, but a collector's passion is as fickle as the tides. It rises as suddenly as it might retreat. Perhaps I'll find myself obsessing over something else in the future, though I can't yet say what my new interest will be.
- ("Little One""Little One"): Rawr! Rawr rawr!
- Paimon: Are you agreeing with her, ("Little One""Little One")? Ohhh, Paimon gets it! This must be the mutual respect and understanding shared by collectors!
- Quipia: It is my honor to have been acknowledged by such a brilliant young Tepetlisaurus. Still, even if we can't do business, that doesn't mean we can't be friends! Feel free to come find me if you ever want to talk about collecting.
- Quipia: I won't keep you any longer, then. Good luck!
