Stripe for the Picking Stripe for the Picking script
Andri Why must all matters pertaining to romance be so very problematic? My lady friend has sadly left the windswept plains of Amh Araeng to seek a life of luxury, relatively speaking, in the Crystarium.
Andri I fear that the passing of time may cause her heart to grow distant, so I plan to send a ring to serve as a symbol of our everlasting love.
Andri I finally bought one with my hard-earned savings, only to discover later that a substantial crack runs along the surface of its otherwise beautiful banded gem. Rather than spend another fortune on a new ring or replacement stone, I struck upon an idea.
Andri It would be far more economical to hire someone to retrieve a similar gem and affix it to the ring myself. And that, my friend, is where you come in. Any risk of injury in the mine will be far outweighed by the gil I offer as a reward, I assure you!
Andri The places in which such gems may be found are invariably fraught with danger. I would go myself, but I am afraid my...constitution makes such forays entirely out of the question.
Andri Well? Have you found a gem that is sufficiently dazzling?
Andri Splendid! Simply gorgeous!
Andri I hope you did not encounter any dangers while searching for it. I hear these are produced by gnomes, and you can tell their age from the number of stripes on the stones they drop.
Andri Unfortunately, attempting to slay one of the brutes is likely to damage the precious gems that appear from its rocky hide. It is better and safer to retrieve those that have fallen naturally.
Andri In other words, where you find these stones, you will also encounter gnomes, hence my reluctance to hunt for one myself.
Andri I am positive my lady friend will be pleased to receive such a wonderful gift. And as agreed, here is payment for your exemplary efforts.
Quest complete.
