Heyy~
Moon here! With... a WORLD QUEST???
yes. yes I am. basically, I started this world quest, and I got... A TRIAL BOOK??
basically, sir arthur of the steambird has gone MISSING!! and this melusine.. uh.... wait, can I just show you the book?
WHAT.
I lowered my already-low settings and it looks BETTER???
anyways..
..wait.
is bloom on
ah.
back to boringness....
GHH
yeah! here are the testimonies we got! there was also a melusine.. idk
anyways I started this quest AGES ago. time to finally DO IT!!
A bottle... is this what they got drunk off of
...
who are "curve" and "talochard"
..I've definitely forgotten some plotpoints lol
wha!!
what's this. I don't see anything in particular
I... hm. I blame my graphics.
A... notebook?
oh I'm so dumb
okay. so waht we have is...
-an empty wine bottle
-a notebook
-a loose button
I'm guessing the button got caught on smth and fell off.. but what could that SOMETHING be..?
oh! another clue! it's... uh.....
OH. right! it's sir arthur's stand
gasp!!!!!
I.. dont' see any more clues... unless if that sparkly thing in the barrel counts...
oh
it's a radish
I can't find anything... okay.
how about we retrace the criminal's steps! first, they slashed sir arthur's pedestal...
next, they lost their button somewhere here... somehow..?
next, uhh... they left their letter here..?
then they probably went in this direction...
...
..dead end!
okay. let's assume they.... escaped..?
nothing here... that's probably the limit to where I can find clues
do we ever get these flowers in the teapot btw
oh. wait. where did they COME frmo! not where did they GO!!
..were they married a long time ago..
A-HA!!!
I love this thing it really feels like a whole detective story!!!
oh. is that GARDEMEK "curve"..? that makes sense. right.
oh. curve says these are FOUR people's footprints
pretty sure. I was quite thorough.
yeah!
ooh...
easy.
huh
ah!
wait
FERRERO ROCHER???
that IS true!!
They said "let's go to the docks"... where are teh docs. I'm trying to do this without the navigation function so I stay alert, but I see no docks, unless if they mean the aquabus lines..? I'll check the navia and clementine lines then
fontaine is so cool...
..okay. not the navia line. TO CLEMENTINE!!!
...okay. let's just navigate.
OH.
THEY MEANT THE ACTUAL DOCKS
WHY DID I THINK THIS WAS RESTRICTED TO FONTAINE CITY LOL
WHY DID I THINK THIS WAS RESTRICTED TO FONTAINE CITY LOL
okay. navigation off!
..I SAID navigation OFF!!!

I was gonna say "he's... a dog..." but maybe melusines understand idk

oh he WASn'T framed
man I SUCK at this
ooh debating I LOVE it!
uhhh... good boy..? girl..? good dog!!
..it WANTS something? okay well it has to be the bottle, right? maybe it's full of dog food and THAT'S where the smell comes from
I'm guessing that worked
ah! yes!
lombroso! hi lombroso

Elegant.. tableware... confrerie....

Man.
Hey Madeleine! you wouldn't happen to know and Adeleine..?

dude you can't just say "don't worry" and "a member of your family was found at the scene" in the SAME SENTENCE
is that the same kevin who just ran off screaming "I HATE YOU ALL"..?
yeah!
...
we never mentioned the newspaper office.
YEAH!!!
CUZ KEVIN TOLD HER!!!
so the knife WAS his...
I see...
ooh... wait, so maybe HE'S after the one who stole Sir Arthur?
I see...
oh..?

the hair is very distinct.
rocher's wife.. as a kid... so, rocher's wife's parent works here? rocher's mother/father in law?
??? why does this thing have a health bar
BROTHER?????
brothers in arms? I'm guessing...
he doesn't know... he doesn't know that bulle fruit's alive..! we saved him! paimon and I saved him! he thought calla lilly was certain death! also THIS IS SO COOL I DIDN'T THINK THAT QUEST WOULD GET A FOLLOW-UP
OH. wait, so the locket we found was the super valuable thing he accidentally sold? WOO!!
ooh... I see.

YES!! WELCOME BACK TO THE RIDE, TALOCHARD!!
oh! excellent idea! paimon can be kevin, and I'll be the fatuus.. I forgot his name ugghhh
do you really gotta call him "dirty"...
okay!
okay. so, obviously Baulard came first because otherwise the others would've found the letter! next, valberry came, because otherwise there would be no knife for kevin! next, rocher came along, prompting kevin to pick up the knife! EASY STUFF!!!
