UI Quest Quest Description

You and Paimon went outside Liyue, intending to set off on an adventure...
(After leaving Liyue Harbor)
Media:vo mnlq001 2 cs mona 01.ogg ???: Finally.
Media:vo mnlq001 2 cs mona 02.ogg ???: You kept me waiting so long I almost fell asleep.
Media:vo mnlq001 2 cs mona 03.ogg ???: Haha, as usual, my astrological predictions are proven correct.
Media:vo mnlq001 2 cs mona 04.ogg ???: You. Yes you. Come with me.
Media:vo mnlq001 2 cs paimon 01.ogg Paimon: Um... Are you some sort of door-to-door fortune teller?
Media:vo mnlq001 2 cs paimon 02.ogg Paimon: Sorry, but we're not really interested.
Media:vo mnlq001 2 cs mona 05.ogg ???: You're not from this world, are you?
(If the player has not met Mona before)
Media:vo mnlq001 3 paimon 01a 1.ogg Paimon: H–How do you know about that?
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 01a 1.ogg ???: How? Because I'm a master of true astrology.
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 01a 2.ogg ???: If you've no other questions, let's be off.
Icon Dialogue Talk Oh, I'm just full of questions.
Icon Dialogue Talk For starters, who are you?
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 01a 3.ogg ???: *sigh* Fine, I'll exercise a little patience, and explain.
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 01a 4.ogg Mona: I am Astrologist Mona Megistus. But considering that it is most rude to misremember names, I allow others to call me Mona.
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 01a 5.ogg Mona: I am on a mission from my master to retrieve a certain box from Mondstadt.
(If the player has already met Mona through The Crisis Deepens)
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 01b 1.ogg Mona: Does my ability to see through your secrets so easily not evoke any memories?
Icon Dialogue Talk It's been a while.
Icon Dialogue Talk You're Mona!
Media:vo mnlq001 3 paimon 01b 1.ogg Paimon: Oh, Paimon remembers! You're that astrologist!
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 01b 2.ogg Mona: That's right. It is I, Astrologist Mona Megistus.
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 01b 3.ogg Mona: This time, I would like you to come with me to Mondstadt to reclaim a box that belongs to my master.
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 02.ogg Mona: It was part of an agreement she made with a friend 50 years ago. But she isn't as spry as she used to be, so it's now up to me.
Media:vo mnlq001 3 paimon 02.ogg Paimon: Not sure what getting some box back has to do with us. Why do you need us to come along?
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 03.ogg Mona: Well... that's because I would also like to take on the guardian of the box.
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 04.ogg Mona: My master and her friend contended in the mystic arts all their lives without a clear victor. If I triumph here, then I will show myself to be superior to my master!
Icon Dialogue Talk So you want to prove yourself, huh...
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 05a.ogg Mona: Ahem, well, I want to prove the power and status of astrology, to be precise.
Icon Dialogue Talk So basically, you want to look good.
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 05b.ogg Mona: What are you talking about? The main thing here is to use this chance to prove the power and status of astrology!
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 06.ogg Mona: Now, from my predictions, I know that my master's friend has left Mondstadt, leaving her successor as the current guardian of that box.
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 07.ogg Mona: Like me, that successor must also be the one who has surpassed their teacher. I must not be careless.
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 08.ogg Mona: But I would prefer to assure my victory in this contest, and upon giving it some thought, you came to mind!
Icon Dialogue Talk But... I have no idea how astrology works.
Media:vo mnlq001 3 paimon 03a.ogg Paimon: How did she get involved in this anyway?
Icon Dialogue Talk How did you end up thinking of me?
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 09.ogg Mona: The knowledge passed down to me from my master must be passed on in turn.
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 10.ogg Mona: If I were to bring my disciple to meet her, then the lead is already mine, no?
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 11.ogg Mona: And you are Mondstadt's great hero, my equal in status. So...
Icon Dialogue Talk I refuse.
Icon Dialogue Talk Since when was I your student?
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 12.ogg Mona: Come on, you don't have to actually become my disciple. You just need to act the part.
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 13.ogg Mona: There's something in it for you as well, should you come with me to get that box.
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 14.ogg Mona: Once I meet that successor and have a chance to exchange knowledge with them, I should be able to read your fate more accurately.
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 15.ogg Mona: Then, I will have answers for you, even regarding such distant and foggy matters as gods and kin.
Media:vo mnlq001 3 paimon 04.ogg Paimon: That... that does seem much faster than searching the land country by country!
Icon Dialogue Talk Those sound like fine conditions.
Icon Dialogue Talk Well... I guess we'll play along.
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 16.ogg Mona: Hehe, a wise decision. Let us be off, then.
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 17.ogg Mona: That said, I would like to pay a certain place a visit before we go.
(After cutscene ends)
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 18.ogg Mona: There is a small inn near Mt. Tianheng that never sees a lot of business, even though its food is always great value for the money.
Media:vo mnlq001 3 mona 19.ogg Mona: The owner has always been good to me, so I'd like to say a farewell before I set off.

(At Mr. Zhu's inn)
Media:vo mnlq001 4 paimon 01.ogg Paimon: (Well, it's no wonder that an inn set up here has no business...)
Media:vo mnlq001 4 mrzhu 01.ogg Mr. Zhu: Mona, you've come at just the right time. Did you see a jade ring while you made your way here?
Media:vo mnlq001 4 mona 01.ogg Mona: A jade ring? Can't say I have.
Media:vo mnlq001 4 mrzhu 02.ogg Mr. Zhu: Oh, that's not good... that ring was given to me by my mentor. But while my back was turned, it was swallowed up by a slime!
Media:vo mnlq001 4 paimon 02.ogg Paimon: Hmm? That should be no trouble with Mona here. She's really good at astrology...
Media:vo mnlq001 4 mona 02.ogg Mona: Absolutely not. Astrology is meant to be used to gain insight into reality and observe destiny itself. It's certainly not for such mundane affairs.
Media:vo mnlq001 4 paimon 03.ogg Paimon: But didn't you say that the owner here's been good to you?
Media:vo mnlq001 4 mona 03.ogg Mona: This is a matter of pride and one's state of mind. If an astrologist thinks that their arts can solve all problems, they will be forsaken by the starry ether.
Media:vo mnlq001 4 mona 04.ogg Mona: Their divinations will lose the power to guide, and will not be able to pierce the fog of the unknown before them. Principles are principles.
Media:vo mnlq001 4 paimon 04.ogg Paimon: Such a powerful ability, and you don't use it to earn a living? What a shame...
Media:vo mnlq001 4 mrzhu 03.ogg Mr. Zhu: *sigh* Well, I was going to put up twenty thousand Mora as compensation, if you were willing.
Media:vo mnlq001 4 mona 05.ogg Mona: Twenty thousand...!
Icon Dialogue Talk Are you alright?
Icon Dialogue Talk What's with that look on your face?
Media:vo mnlq001 4 mona 06.ogg Mona: Oh, ahh, it's nothing! I... I was just thinking that the person who finds that ring must be lucky indeed, to be able to earn twenty thousand Mora just like that.
Icon Dialogue Talk You were just talking about an astrologist's pride...
Icon Dialogue Talk Whatever happened to "principles are principles"?
Media:vo mnlq001 4 mona 07.ogg Mona: Ahem. Yes. Of course. Still... the owner's business has had it pretty hard. It must be a truly extraordinary ring, to be worth spending this much Mora to find.
Media:vo mnlq001 4 mona 08.ogg Mona: It wouldn't be right for us to leave like this, so let's help to search for it. There may be other means we can employ besides astrology.
Media:vo mnlq001 4 paimon 05.ogg Paimon: Oh, Paimon knows where this is going.
Media:vo mnlq001 4 mona 09.ogg Mona: (TravelerTraveler), I know, I'll leave this one to you! This is the first mission I'm giving you as your master!
Icon Dialogue Talk But of course...
Icon Dialogue Talk Guess it's become my business. Again.
Media:vo mnlq001 4 paimon 06a 1.ogg Paimon: Hmm, since it was swallowed up by a slime, maybe we can use Elemental Bait to lure all the nearby slimes to us.
Media:vo mnlq001 4 paimon 06a 2.ogg Paimon: You remember? The stuff we helped Master Diluc make.
Media:vo mnlq001 4 paimon 07.ogg Paimon: And... Hehe, Paimon actually kept a small amount!
Icon Dialogue Talk Well done Paimon!
Media:vo mnlq001 4 paimon 08a.ogg Paimon: Paimon's the very best partner, right?
Icon Dialogue Talk Don't tell me that when you get greedy, you...
Media:vo mnlq001 4 paimon 08b.ogg Paimon: Aw, don't sweat the small stuff.
Media:vo mnlq001 4 mona 10.ogg Mona: Seems like you already have a plan.
Media:vo mnlq001 4 paimon 09.ogg Paimon: Yup. We'll be back in a jiffy!
(After cutscene ends)
Media:vo mnlq001 5 paimon 01.ogg Paimon: The Elemental Bait's really strong – it will attract all the slimes in the area.
Media:vo mnlq001 5 paimon 02.ogg Paimon: Even if they're just slimes, they can be dangerous together, so we'd best prepare ourselves.
(Talking to Mona again)
Media:vo dialog mnlq001 mona 01.ogg Mona: This is your first mission, so don't mess it up.
Media:vo dialog mnlq001 mona 02.ogg Mona: But if the going gets too tough for you... Well, I shall lend a hand then.
(Talking to Mr. Zhu again)
Mr. Zhu: Thank you all very much, that ring really is very important to me.

(Upon finding the ring)
Media:vo mnlq001 7 paimon 01.ogg Paimon: Found it! This must be the ring!
Media:vo mnlq001 7 paimon 02.ogg Paimon: It's so pretty. Paimon's sure it's worth a ton of...
Media:vo mnlq001 7 paimon 03.ogg Paimon: ...Ah, Paimon wasn't having any bad thoughts! Let's bring the ring back to Mr. Zhu!

(Giving the ring back to Mr. Zhu)
Media:vo mnlq001 8 mrzhu 01.ogg Mr. Zhu: That's it, that's the one! I thought it was lost forever!
Media:vo mnlq001 8 mona 01.ogg Mona: You actually found it. Not bad.
Media:vo mnlq001 8 mona 02.ogg Mona: Mr. Zhu, you must take care of such precious things a bit better. You might not be so fortunate next time.
Media:vo mnlq001 8 mrzhu 02.ogg Mr. Zhu: You're absolutely right. How would I have faced my family if I had lost the 253rd ring my mother gave me?
Icon Dialogue Talk ...
Icon Dialogue Talk ... ...
Icon Dialogue Talk ... ... ...
Media:vo mnlq001 8 mrzhu 03.ogg Mr. Zhu: Ah, let me explain. My family owns three jade mines, and in order to ensure that I would be able to find myself a good wife, my mother had many jade accessories made as heirlooms.
Media:vo mnlq001 8 mrzhu 04.ogg Mr. Zhu: I think there might be over five hundred of them.
Media:vo mnlq001 8 mona 03.ogg Mona: Then, why would you feel the need to set up an inn here?
Media:vo mnlq001 8 mrzhu 05.ogg Mr. Zhu: Well, inheriting the family business too early unavoidably made things boring.
Media:vo mnlq001 8 mrzhu 06.ogg Mr. Zhu: Thank you, all the same. Here's the Mora, as agreed. Please take it.
Media:vo mnlq001 8 paimon 01.ogg Paimon: Then—
Media:vo mnlq001 8 mona 04.ogg Mona: —Then I'll take it gladly!
Icon Dialogue Talk That was quick!
Icon Dialogue Talk Even Paimon wasn't that fast!
Media:vo mnlq001 8 paimon 02.ogg Paimon: But we did all the work!
Media:vo mnlq001 8 mona 05.ogg Mona: A disciple should act like one. How can they steal their master's thunder?
Icon Dialogue Talk Well...
Media:vo mnlq001 8 paimon 03a.ogg Paimon: Traveler, didn't we say that we were just playing pretend?
Icon Dialogue Talk I never said I'd really be your disciple.
Media:vo mnlq001 8 paimon 03b.ogg Paimon: Exactly!
Media:vo mnlq001 8 mona 06.ogg Mona: Well, you need to start practicing now. If my rival is as smart as I think they are, they will figure you out in a heartbeat.
???: *stomach grumble*
Media:vo mnlq001 8 mona 07.ogg Mona: Huh...
Media:vo mnlq001 8 paimon 04.ogg Paimon: What was that rumbling sound?
Media:vo mnlq001 8 mrzhu 07.ogg Mr. Zhu: Oh, right, you mustn't have eaten in days. I'm very sorry, I forgot that you have no...
Media:vo mnlq001 8 mona 08.ogg Mona: Aaaaaaah—! Shhhhahahahaha! That didn't happen! Forget it!
Media:vo mnlq001 8 mona 09.ogg Mona: ...Hmph! Well, I suddenly feel that you have indeed contributed to our good fortune. I say we spend this money on treating you to a fine meal!
Media:vo mnlq001 8 mona 10.ogg Mona: If we travel north, we'll reach the Wangshu Inn. I hear that the food there is really good, so let's go try it out!
Media:vo mnlq001 8 mona 11.ogg Mona: No need to thank me, I'm just doing as a good master should!
Media:vo mnlq001 8 paimon 05.ogg Paimon: Did she say she was treating us?! Is Paimon hearing things?
Icon Dialogue Talk "Let's go after her." There. I said it for you.
Media:vo mnlq001 8 paimon 06a.ogg Paimon: Let's go after her! For good food!
Icon Dialogue Talk "She's a good person." Said it for you.
Media:vo mnlq001 8 paimon 06b.ogg Paimon: She's a good person! Hehe, let's have ourselves a great meal!
(Talking to Mr. Zhu again)
Media:vo dialog mnlq001 mrzhu 01.ogg Mr. Zhu: Thank you all so much. You're welcome to drop by again.
Media:vo dialog mnlq001 mrzhu 02.ogg Mr. Zhu: Well, if this inn hasn't closed its doors yet, haha...
