Fragrance of Wine[]
- Kaeya: You made it. C'mon, let's go inside.
- Kaeya: Brace yourself for some sour grapes... Heh.
- (After teleporting into the Dawn Winery)
- Diluc: If you're not feeling well, then let me go this time.
- Elzer: Oh, I'm fine, it's not serious...
- Kaeya: Oh, I'm sorry, I hope I'm not interrupting anything important...
- Diluc: What're you doing here today? And I see you've brought a plus one...
Greetings.- Kaeya: Oh, it's nothing particularly pressing. It's just that we recently returned from Sumeru, and given how long it's been since we last visited the Winery, we thought we'd drop by and say hello.
- Diluc: Is that it? Make yourselves comfortable, then.
- Kaeya: Oh, do you really mean that? Because my definition of "comfortable" happens to involve prodigious amounts of your finest wines... Speaking of which, I'm curious where you store the wine these days — is it the same place as it always used to be?
- Diluc: Sounds like you're in a hurry to reach your goal. Been plotting this raid for a long time?
- Kaeya: Plotting a raid? Why, you misunderstand me. The truth is, a rumor happened to reach my ears recently...
- Kaeya: My informants tell me that last month, the Dawn Winery spent a large sum of Mora on two bottles of limited-edition Northland Valberry Liquor. However, it turns out that they are likely just cheap knockoffs masquerading as the real thing!
- Kaeya: Of course, a teetotaler like yourself would struggle to tell the difference. So why not get a connoisseur to help you appraise the quality?
- Kaeya: Ah wait — but the sterling reputation of Dawn Winery is at stake! Why, if you really purchased bootleg liquor, that would be scandalous. Better to have unknown and insignificant alcohol aficionados do the taste-test for you, to prevent word getting out.
- Diluc: Quite the story. You used that one last year. Got anything else?
- Kaeya: What, really? Uhhh... I totally forgot. Hmmm... in that case, how about the principle of reciprocity?
- Kaeya: Here, this is for you. I bought it for you in Sumeru, and it cost a veritable mountain of Mora.
- Diluc: Thanks. Put it on the table.
- Kaeya: That's it? No comment whatsoever?
- Diluc: You want a comment? Okay then. This thing is very in line with your unique aesthetic tastes, much like that vase over there.
- Diluc: Elzer, fetch a bottle of this year's newest batch from the warehouse. Or else someone will keep blathering on with endless excuses.
- Elzer: One moment, Master Kaeya, I shall fetch it immediately... *cough* *cough*
- Kaeya: What's wrong, Elzer? Are you okay?
- Elzer: My throat is a bit raspy is all. It got better after I began taking medicine, but recently... *cough* ...It flared up again. Other than a bit of difficulty breathing now and then, it's nothing to be concerned about.
- Kaeya: Many illnesses are caused by overwork. If you don't get enough rest, medicine alone won't solve the problem.
- Kaeya: Surely, you should've long since handed over the work of the winery to Diluc by now? You can't keep being Diluc's butler, he's becoming a louse.
- Elzer: Actually, most of the time he... *cough* ...
- Diluc: Take some time off, Elzer. Don't put it off any longer. I'll handle the guild matters.
- Diluc: It's important to take care of your health. You have to take it seriously. And Cavalry Captain... you would do well to remember that brevity is the soul of wit.
- Elzer: Master Diluc, Master Kaeya, thank you both. *cough* ... Then I'll take my leave and rest for a few days...
- Kaeya: Enjoy your vacation! Though before you officially clock out, let me head out the door with you. We can grab a few bottles on the way.
- Kaeya: There's nothing quite like enjoying a quality wine while feeling the gentle breeze against your face... ahh.
- Want to come, Diluc?
- We can drink inside together.
- Diluc: Normally I'd accompany you, but unfortunately I still have some pressing matters to take care of. My apologies and regards to both of you.
- Kaeya: Really? That's a shame.
- (Talk to Diluc again, optional)
- Diluc: Where's Kaeya? Gone already?
- Kaeya's still here. What're you working on?
- Diluc: Right now, just the usual day-to-day winery business. But I'll be attending a meeting in Elzer's place shortly.
- Diluc: The meeting concerns research and development of new beverages, and involves collaboration between several different wineries. It makes more sense for me to attend, anyway.
- Diluc: Kaeya can answer any questions you might have while I'm not here. He's quite familiar with the winery.
- (After going outside)
- Elzer: I asked Connor to select a bottle of our best. He'll bring it by shortly.
- Kaeya: You asked Connor?
- Elzer: Haha, he hasn't seen you in a while. He's just happy to be able to do this for you.
- Kaeya: Considerate as ever. Ah, Elzer! I also brought you a gift. Here, this belt buckle is for you.
- Elzer: Such artistry... Thank you very much indeed. I'll put it on as soon as I get home.
- Kaeya: Glad you like it. Go on, enjoy your time off, and don't forget to see a doctor!
- Elzer: Very well, Master Kaeya. I'll be taking my leave now.
- Kaeya: Elzer is a good guy, and he's very responsible. But with a thousand different things to worry about each day, that same sense of responsibility wears him down.
- Connor: Master Kaeya, your wine, and an Apple Cider for your friend! All freshly fermented this year. Please, have a taste!
- Connor: (TravelerTraveler), this one's for you.
- Thank you.
- Kaeya: Very clear... and a full-bodied aroma. It's rather nice.
- Connor: Isn't it? This one's a little on the sweeter side, but I can go grab a dry one if you'd prefer!
- Kaeya: No need, sweet is just fine. Let's drink one together.
- Connor: Don't mind if I do, haha! I haven't caught up with you like this in a long time.
- Connor: We used to always pour the first glass for you when cracking open a new barrel. With you gone these past few years, I've had to drink it for you.
- Kaeya: Well, since it wasn't me harvesting the grapes, destemming, or crushing them, it's much more fitting that you should take the first taste.
- Destemming?
- Connor: It's an important step in the winemaking process. After harvesting the grapes, the stems have to be removed prior to fermentation, or they'll affect the quality.
- Crushing?
- Connor: Crushing the grapes improves the aroma and color of the wine during the fermentation process. If you're curious to learn more about the winemaking process, you can read our "Fruit Wine Maker's Manual."
- Connor: If you'd like, (TravelerTraveler), you can help us harvest some grapes. Winemaking can be quite a lot of fun.
- Kaeya: It isn't nearly as exciting as he makes it sound. Your back will be in so much pain after picking grapes that you won't be able to stand up straight.
- Connor: Master Kaeya is right, harvesting grapes is backbreaking labor.
- Connor: But seeing the grapes turn into grape juice, then ferment into wine, it's a fascinating experience, and every person at the winery should have a chance to share in it.
- Kaeya: Wait, so Diluc actually helps you with the winemaking?
- Connor: Goodness, no, Master Diluc is far too busy! Not just during the day, but even at night...
- Kaeya: Oh? And just what is Diluc always so busy with?
- Connor: Well, you know. Come nightfall, he's always out there... Uh, networking, and so on... Heh, Master Kaeya, you may be surprised to learn just what lengths Master Diluc is willing to go to for the sake of the business...
- Kaeya: Haha, Connor, you're an awful liar. I hate to see you struggle.
- Connor: Um... Hehe, so — Master Kaeya, how do you like your drink? I remember you weren't very interested in wine when you were young.
- (That was the least natural segue in conversational history.)
- (Connor almost exposed the Darknight Hero...)
- Kaeya: ...That was because the adults said children weren't allowed even a drop. Don't you remember how much trouble Diluc got in that time he snuck a drink?
- Connor: Ahhh, yes, of course! Adelinde even covered for the two of you, haha!
- Kaeya: But on a serious note, having grown up at a winery, I spent my childhood watching Tunner plant the grapeseeds, waiting for them to ripen on the vine, harvesting them together, and waiting for the alcohol to ferment.
- Kaeya: Even though I couldn't help with making distilled spirits, watching everyone work was fascinating.
- Kaeya: How could anyone not love to drink with a childhood like that?
- Kaeya: So, let us raise a glass to wine itself, and in thanks to the gracious hospitality the winery has shown us today!
- To our generous hosts!
- Though my drink is non-alcoholic...
- Connor: Hear, hear! To Dawn Winery!
- Three glasses clink, and are promptly drained in celebration.
- Kaeya: Speaking of wine, Connor, I have a gift for you. It's a decanter set from Sumeru.
- Connor: I get a present too? Thank you, Master Kaeya.
- Connor: Time really does fly! I still remember the days when everyone was giving you gifts at your birthday parties when you were young.
- Connor: Now, I have wrinkles and Tunner's bent double, while Master Kaeya is the Cavalry Captain of the Knights of Favonius!
- Kaeya: How is Tunner holding up?
- Connor: He's still tough, but getting on in years, so some things just aren't as easy as they were. But he's used to doing things his way, and doesn't trust new employees to do it for him.
- Connor: A lot of the temporary workers I hired quit because they couldn't handle how picky he was.
- Connor: Master Kaeya, if you have time, why not go talk to him about it? You're probably the only person he'll listen to besides Master Diluc.
- Kaeya: I definitely owe him a visit. I haven't seen him in some time, and I do have fond memories of the days when he was teaching me to pick grapes...
- (Talk to Connor again, optional)
- Connor: The art of winemaking is fascinating, would you like to try and learn?
Winery Work[]
- (Talk to Tunner)
- Kaeya: Busy day today, Tunner?
- Tunner: Oh, Master Kaeya, you're back! No, I'm not at all busy, I just spend my hours watching the grapes growing on the vine.
- Tunner: They're growing wonderfully this year. A few rows are almost ripe! We've already begun harvesting them these past few days, so that'll keep me occupied.
- Tunner: Sit, sit! After we're done picking, I'll bring a few bunches over for you to try.
- Kaeya: No need. We were just drinking with Connor, and our stomachs are so full of wine that we couldn't eat a bite.
- Tunner: What about your friend? Doesn't (hehe/
sheshe) want to try? - I'm not hungry.
- Thank you.
- Kaeya: Allow me to introduce the Honorary Knight of the Knights of Favonius, (TravelerTraveler).
- Tunner: Ah, the Honorary Knight in the flesh! There are so many talented people in the Knights of Favonius. You all have bright futures ahead of you.
- Kaeya: Harvesting grapes is hard work, let me help you.
- Kaeya: Do you still remember how I used to help out when we were shorthanded?
- Tunner: Haha, I believe I do... In that case, I'm counting on you!
- I will help too.
- Tunner: What's this, everyone's clamoring to do manual labor? Well, suits me! More help is always appreciated.
- Tunner: Come with me, (young ladyoung lad/
young lassyoung lass). I'll tell you which grapes are ripe enough, and you can pick them.
- (Talk to Tunner again, optional)
- Tunner: Happy to have another helper. Now, let's go pick some grapes!
- (Talk to Kaeya, optional)
- Kaeya: Winery rules state that whoever picks the most grapes without damaging them gets to drink the first glass from the new batch.
- (After picking two bunches of Ripe Grapes and following Tunner)
- Tunner: You have nimble hands, (ladlad/
lassielassie)! Master Kaeya wasn't nearly so careful when he was young. He mangled so many his first time, tsk tsk... what a waste! - Tunner: Fortunately, the young master has a good head on his shoulders. Didn't take long for him to get up to speed.
- Tunner: And now he's turned into such an outstanding young man. Polite and kind...
- Tunner: If I had a son as exceptional as Kaeya, I would be the happiest man in Mondstadt!
- (After picking two more bunches of grapes)
- Tunner: There's a few more rows of grapes up ahead. Let's finish picking them together.
- Tunner: Careful not to damage the grapes when you pinch the stem.
- (After picking one more bunch of grapes)
- Tunner: These grapes look excellent, you're a fast learner.
- (Talk to Tunner)
- Tunner: I'll take them, good job.
- Tunner: Master Kaeya left the winery and moved to Mondstadt... just like my own son, Guy. He left home to join the Knights of Favonius, too.
- Tunner: I don't know him like Miss Adelinde or Master Diluc do, but I know that no matter how old your child gets, they always need a home they can come back to.
- Tunner: And without family by your side, you at least need the companionship of friends.
- Tunner: I've been working here for decades, and watched him grow up with my own two eyes... Sometimes, I get the sense that there is something bothering him. Something deep-rooted.
- Tunner: But he guards his secrets closely. Or perhaps he just doesn't want to involve us... After all, I doubt that we could help him.
- Tunner: I can see that you have a good relationship with Master Kaeya. Please look after him... He's very dear to us.
- I'll take good care of him.
- Tunner: Hearing that puts my mind at ease. You're a good child. Thank you.
- Kaeya is an important friend to me.
- I think Kaeya is much stronger than you might imagine.
- Tunner: ...That he is, yes. I do still think of him as a child. It takes time for an old man's mind to adjust.
- Kaeya is an important friend to me.
- Tunner: Wonderful, wonderful. Knowing that he has a friend like you, we here at the winery can be happy for him.
- Kaeya: You're looking very happy, Tunner. Was (TravelerTraveler) telling you some jokes?
- Tunner: Haha, no, no jokes... I've received a letter from my son, Guy. He's really going places. I'm so delighted!
- Tunner: Master Kaeya, Honorary Knight, my eyesight is fading in my old age... Could you read it out for me?
- Kaeya: Of course!
- Tunner: Thank you both.
