Curses, Foiled...Again!? (pt.1) - Windurst Walls
Script Video
Shantotto: Ah! Thank goodness...there you are! I've been looking all over Windurst for you! Ha~h!

Shantotto: Say...you don't happen to have any dependents, do you? Like, would anyone be saddened if you were put behind bars? Would anyone grieve if you, er...disappeared to the stars?

Either choice

Shantotto: Well, no matter, either way. That doesn't concern me today.

Shantotto: Personally, I don't want to rot in prison, you see...! So, it's inevitable that you're the one who'll take the fall for me.

Shantotto: Hey, you were my accomplice, you know!? You cannot say that it's not so.

Shantotto: If you recall, without pride or plom...you're the one who helped me cast a curse on that peeping Tom!

Shantotto: You know...the Skeleton Dance curse, you cur!? I used your pinch of bomb ash and bone chips, along with my misery staff, to vex the voyeur.

Shantotto: Well, the truth is, that wasn't the "Skeleton Dance" curse I cast. It seems I did the old "Invoke the Grip of Death" curse, oh blast! (An honest mistake...that anyone would make...)

Shantotto: So, we actually have hexed the person to death, I fear. Quite a disagreeable aftertaste for an act of sweet vengeance, dear.

Shantotto: But maybe Death hasn't taken a complete hold of him yet. We might still have time to save him, so don't sweat!

Shantotto: Oh, but to undo the curse, we'll need two bomb arms, a revival tree root and next...a lock of hair of the unfortunate person we hexed.

Shantotto: Revival Tree Roots are quite hard to come by and it's impossible to remove a lock of the cursed person's hair without them noticing, I dread...

Shantotto: So I guess we may as well give up on that plan and just have you take the blame for the both of us and go to jail instead!

This is the first choice's response, second choice cancels quest but unsure of text, you can help by adding it

Shantotto: O~h! You're making me lose my temper, dear!

Shantotto: Fine! If you want to avoid imprisonment, you'll just have to go find: two bomb arms, a revival tree root, and a lock of hair of the cursed person...if you don't mind.

Shantotto: If you can do that impossible feat, I'll smooth things over for you, nice and neat!

Shantotto (Upon speaking with her before completing quest): If you want to avoid imprisonment, you'll just have to go find: two bomb arms, a revival tree root, and a lock of hair of the cursed person...if you don't mind.

Shantotto: If you can do that impossible feat, I'll smooth things over for you, nice and neat!
