Dialogs:
NPC:/dialogue Completing the last quest in this questline will reduce the summoning cost of Marian Noryette by 1.
I must say, I'm impressed what you managed to organize. And I'm grateful for your confidentiality, @PC_NAME(0).
NPC:/excuse Well, we all thought it was only appropriate for everyone to honor and remember Eanna.
NPC:/no I know she would be happy to see everyone put their differences aside to come together for this.
NPC:/prayer Queen Amarendra, how long has it been since we last talked face to face? I'm glad we can be civil on this special occasion.
NPC:/prayer I did not expect to receive an invitation, but am grateful for the gesture. I guess our gratitude for Eanna's sacrifice is one of few things our nations can agree upon.
NPC:/enrage Eltere, you've done well to invite us to this gathering. Eanna may not be our kin, but the world would be a much better place with more people like her.
NPC:/no That's exactly why we are here. To celebrate Eanna and all her good deeds.
NPC:/no I hope Lucius is happy to see just how loved she is, and that none of us will ever forget what she's done for the people on Auroria.
NPC:/cry I didn't expect this to be so emotional. Don't look at me, I'm not crying, it's just those damn onions Kurt chopped earlier.
NPC:/prayer Even royalty is allowed to have feelings sometimes, Isan.
NPC:And don't you talk smack about Kurt's cooking. I helped prepare the whole thing, so I know it's delicious.
NPC:/dialogue Whatever's in your face are probably not tears, but drool you smeared all over.
NPC:/prayer Alright, that's enough. Don't forget what we're here for. If Queen Amarendra and King Andrion can be courteous, so can you two!
NPC:/dialogue Hear, hear. Now you all go join the ceremony and I'll finish up here.
NPC:/sigh I think the priests are about to begin the prayer. Eanna, I hope you found peace.
NPC:/gloomy Lucius, about her crate. I trust you received it?
NPC:/dialogue Our men brought it straight to your location in Sanddeep, Marian.
NPC:/no And from there, they should have delivered it directly to you on Ynys Isle, Lucius.
NPC:I did receive it, along with the ring. Thank you both for retrieving the crate. Its content is now in the coffin we're about to send off to the Hereafter.
NPC:/point I have a question, Marian. What are all those children doing? Is that a normal part of this ceremony?
NPC:/thank I'm curious to learn about this tradition as well. Is this what Nuians do during their funeral rites?
NPC:/scratch It's not part of a traditional ceremony, no. This is just for Eanna... the children are planting seeds.
NPC:/dialogue They're flower seeds.
NPC:/up I heard long before the expedition, Eanna used to love planting and growing flowers herself.
NPC:/sigh That is true. She always had a special touch with all living beings and what the children are planting are her favorite flowers.
NPC:/scratch She would be happy if she saw them show so much care for those plants.
NPC:/clap Alright Lucius, are you ready to say goodbye to Eanna in celebration of her life?
NPC:/dialogue The priests are about to begin with the prayer.
NPC:/gloomy The ceremony can begin, but I will never say goodbye.

NPC:I don't think I've heard these words at other ceremonies before is all.
NPC:You didn't...
NPC:Because I wrote them.
NPC:It's in an ancient language most people don't understand anymore.
NPC:But she does...
NPC:This is a lot to process, so if you don't mind...
NPC:Of course. I bet whatever it says is beautiful and she's happy to hear it.

Return to the Golden Fable Harbor in Sanddeep to meet Marian Noryette.
Dialogs:
NPC:/dialogue You did a good job planting those flowers. Eanna will be so happy to see the flowers grow.
NPC:/dialogue Do you think she will be able to see them, all the way from the Hereafter?
NPC:Of course she can. Even when our loved ones move into the Hereafter, a part of them always stays with us.
NPC:That's correct. And you see, that man at the ceremony with the dark hood will always carry her in his heart.
NPC:/dialogue So whenever he goes through White Arden and sees those flowers, she will see them too.
NPC:And when she sees them, she will be happy because they're her favorite flowers.
NPC:/dialogue And I helped planting them, so I helped making Eanna happy, right?
NPC:/point Maybe I should plant more flowers then, all over the place! And then when the man comes by, she will be like "yay more flowers"!
NPC:That's a very kind thought, young man.
NPC:It really is and Eanna was always very kind to all people that crossed paths with her.
NPC:/dialogue Perhaps a piece of her is inside you too!
NPC:/gloomy Really? That is awesome! I will plant a flower in front of my house and look at it every day.
NPC:Maybe you should plant whatever flower your favorite is too.
NPC:It will be like... double happiness, or something.
NPC:/conclude Double happiness, yes! Because I'm happy and she's happy!
NPC:/salute Ok, I have to go now, I want to plant the flowers!
NPC:/dialogue Make sure you get home safe and no running!
NPC:No running?
NPC:/down Hey, let me know if you plant some catnip! That's my favorite plant and it makes me very happy!
NPC:Ok... thank you for your contribution to this topic, Eltere.
NPC:/dialogue Don't let them keep you, you can go now, Teebo.
NPC:/conclude Would you like to know what my favorite flower is?
NPC:NOPE!
