Hodari
Been makin’ a name for yourself lately. Every time I go into town, someone’s singin’ your praises.
Hodari
If you’re lookin' for copper, you'll find it near the village. Iron and palium are further out in the bay.
Hodari
Can never have too much copper. Especially if you're runnin' your tools ragged.
Hodari
Stone ain't so useful on its own, but once you get a smelter, you can use it to make bricks.
Y'don't need me to tell you what bricks are for. Right?
Hodari
...Think I pulled somethin' in the mines earlier. Gonna be a long day.
Hodari
Saw you out there swingin' that pickaxe the other day.
...Keep workin' at it.
Hodari
I know I ain't a perfect father. Najuma seems madder'n not these days.
But if anything happened to her...
I don't wanna think about it.
Hodari
Been harder to talk to Najuma lately. An' if you haven’t noticed, I ain't exactly good at talkin' in general.
Hodari
When Najuma was young, I'd read her to sleep every night. Sometimes, I'd pass out right next to her in the chair.
Hodari
Sometimes I worry Najuma doesn't have many kids her own age to play with. But, I guess, it's alright.
She always did prefer talkin' to adults anyway.
Hodari
Najuma don't come into town much. Think all the noise and people overwhelm her.
Hodari
Najuma keeps forgettin' to clean up after herself. She's just like her mother, gets all caught up in the next big invention.
She'd forget to eat if I didn't cook.
Hodari
Damn Spice Sprouts missin’ from the cupboard again. That’s the third time this week.
Hodari
Think I heard a Muujin rustlin' around outside last night. Scampered off when I went out t'check.
Hodari
Workin' on a new table for the living room. Just not sure if I wanna use Sapwood or Heartwood.
(Player)
Sapwood. Hodari
Hmm. It ain't as sturdy, but it's easy to source. I'll just need to seal it properly.
(Player)
Heartwood. Hodari
You're right. It's a little more work to get, but it'll last longer.
(Player)
Both! Hodari
Both? ... I suppose I could make a butcher block outta my scrap wood. Might look nice.
Hodari
I always take my bean juice black. Don't need any of that sweetleaf stuff junkin' up the flavor.
Hodari
Zeki tried to sell me on a Flow-powered grill the other day.
Some things you just don’t cheat.
Hodari
Here again? At this point, m'starting to get used to it.
Hodari
I try not to take a sleepin’ potion every night. Just when I really need them.
Hodari
Gotta stop by Zeki's on the way back home and grab some Spices. Never forget to season your meat before you throw it on the grill.
Hodari
When I used to stop by the Inn at night, Kenli and Badruu would talk my ear off. S’nice to have a little peace and quiet.
Hodari
Came here t'make a name in the mountains.
The mines back home felt full enough with all my siblings in 'em.
Still, they don't really get it. Me leavin' home and all.

After Player has upgraded their Makeshift Pick to Standard Pick and used it
Hodari
Copper pickaxe workin' out okay?
(Player)
It's great! Hodari
A new tool always is. Take care of it.
(Player)
Could be better. Hodari
Information Needed
(Player)
It's shiny. Hodari
Won't stay that way for long.
Hodari
Here, see this scrap wood? Thinkin’ I might make a new piece out of it. What d’you think I should make?
(Player)
Something practical. Hodari
Information Needed
(Player)
Something fancy! Hodari
I ain’t much for fancy... but I’ve been meanin’ to try somethin’ out lately. I’ll let you know how it goes.
Hodari
You got a favorite breakfast food?
(Player)
All of it! Hodari
Can't disagree. Most important meal of the day, y'know. I'm partial to steak'n'eggs myself.
(Player)
Granola. Hodari
Huh. Leta always tried to get me to eat that stuff. Said it was good for my health
I told her, if it's so good, why's it make me feel so bad?
(Player)
Anything sweet. Hodari
That's how Najuma was as a kid. Long as I slathered it in syrup, it was down the hatch.
...That hasn't changed, but I try t'pretend I don't notice it anymore.
(Player)
I usually skip breakfast. Hodari
...Here. You take this, and don't let me catch you skippin' it again. I'll feed you breakfast every mornin' if I have to.

Hodari
What do you think of the art around here?
(Player)
I like it! Hodari
Huh. Not enough boats for my taste.
(Player)
It's not my thing. Hodari
Agreed. I find myself wonderin' why they have so many paintings of the valley.
I mean, why not just go stand outside?
Hodari
How's that plot of land workin' out for you?
(Player)
It's a little small. Hodari
Information Needed.
(Player)
It's going great! Hodari
Good. You need any tips, just ask.
(Player)
I'd rather move into yours. Hodari
Place is full enough without another mouth t'feed.
(Player)
It's a lot of work. Hodari
Information Needed.
Hodari
Have you seen my daughter, Najuma, around?
(Player)
No, I don't think so. Hodari
If you see her in the mines, let me know. She's not supposed to be in there without permission.
(Player)
She's in her room. Hodari
Yeah... she's goin' through that phase.
(Player)
You should let the kid be free! Hodari
I would, but when she's free she manages to get herself into a whole lotta trouble.
If y'really wanna look out for her, give me a holler next time you see her in the mines.
Specific Time
In the Morning or During the Early Day
Hodari
Best part of being up this early? No one else is.
Hodari
Woke up early today. Gotta go out and fix the fences before work. I'll see you in town later?
In the Evening or At Night, before 11PM
Hodari
Was thinkin' about firin' up the grill in a sec. Najuma loves it when I make Corn.
At Night
Hodari
Couldn't sleep, so I made myself some midnight meat. Here, looks like y'could use some yourself.

Grilled Meat
Hodari
Tamala dropped off another sleepin' draught tonight. Not sure what I'd do without 'em.
Hodari
Awful late to be out in Bahari, ain't it? Better head home before y'pass out.
Hodari
If you're here t'see Najuma, go home, it's past her bedtime.If [sic] you're here t'see me... don't.
Hodari
Just thinkin' about all the stuff I've gotta do tomorrow.
Used to make it a list, but it stopped fitting on a single page.
Hodari
Seems like I blinked an' the day's over. But still just as much work left as ever.
Hodari
Don't sleep much these days. Figured I'd stop wastin' time pretending to.
Hodari
...Didn't have much luck today. I'll go deeper tomorrow.
Specific Location
In the kitchen in Hodari and Najuma's House
Hodari
...You stickin' around? I only got two plates for breakfast.
Hodari
Want some breakfast? I always make about fifteen eggs too many.
At the Inn
Hodari
Not many stop by the Inn during the day.
Gotta say...I like it better this way.
Hodari
If you haven't noticed, I ain't much of a talker.
You want conversation, maybe try Ashura.
You wanna sit in silence eatin' lunch, pull up a chair.
Outside the Pavel Mines
Hodari
I like bein' down in the mines.
The only thing I have to focus on here is the swing of my pick.
Everything else is an unwanted distraction.
Hodari
Keep your eyes open when y’head into the mines. One wrong step can send it- and you- tumblin’ down.
Hodari
The most important thing to remember about minin' is your attitude.
Don't give up when it gets hard, and you'll strike silver eventually.
Or you won't...in which case, I guess you wasted your time.
At the picnic table in front of Hodari and Najuma's House
Hodari
You stopped by. Good, because I made extra.

Steak Dinner
Hodari
Najuma thinks I don't notice her sneakin' out to the workshop every night. Kids ain't as stealthy as they think they are.
Friendship Level 3-4
Friendship Level 3
Hodari
Sometimes I worry about how shy Najuma is.
Her mother was always so boisterous and full of life.
But I suppose it’s no use comparing the two of them.
Najuma’ll find her own way. Like all children... she’ll have to.
Hodari
Najuma’s love for explosives comes from my wife Leta. So’s her penchant for ignorin’ my advice.
Hodari
Najuma takes after her mother, Leta. The only thing more fiery'n her temper was her hair.
Hodari
It ain't easy, raisin' a kid alone. Always thought I'd have Leta by my side.
Hodari
Zeki's been stoppin' by more lately. He and Leta used to work together.
I'd ask him to stay for dinner, but he always wants to eat Fish.
Hodari
Can't sleep? We can keep each other company.
Hodari
Not so good at talkin’, f’you haven’t noticed. Still, it’s easy enough with you. Most of the time.
Hodari
I usually work alone... but somehow I don't mind it so much when you're around.
Hodari
You're free to stick around if you want. Just... don't expect me to entertain you much.
Hodari
Think I'll fire up the grill tonight. Stop by and I'll make sure y'have some dinner too.
Friendship Level 4
Hodari
Didn't think I had much use for friends.
But...I have use for you... or our friendship, I mean.
... Let's pretend that was a compliment and we'll move on with our day, yeah?
Hodari
Woke up this morning t'see Najuma still workin' in the shed. Figured I'd join her and see what we could make together.
...Mostly, a mess.

Well. I can be stubborn sometimes. So. Thanks.
Hodari
The... accident, where we lost Leta. It happened in that mineshaft. Been sealed ever since.
I don't go out there much if I can help it.
During or After Hodari's Friendship Level 4 Quest: Say It Ain't Seance
Hodari
...Leta loved these mines like they were home. A few ghosts wouldn’t’ve gotten in her way.
She’d be down here with a shovel an’ a candle, fightin’ ‘em off herself.
Hodari
You an' Najuma even got me all worked up last night. Coulda sworn I saw something outta the corner of my eye.
I didn't, of course. Because ghosts don't exist.
After Hodari's Friendship Level 4 Quest: Say It Ain't Seance
Hodari
Got another letter from m’family. Brother this time.
He says the old Pavel mine ain’t doin’ so well these days, either [.]
Maybe Shani’ll be beggin’ to come here next.
...Just scared myself there.
Hodari
Been sleepin’ easier lately. Like a weight’s lifted off my chest.
Whatever you did with that whole… séance thing, it might actually be workin’.

After Najuma's Friendship Level 4 Quest: Survivor's Guilt
Hodari
After the accident, Najuma and I both shut down for a while. Takes time, to get back to being a person after somethin’ like that.
Hodari
...Thanks for bein' there for Najuma. Shoulda been me, but...
Well. I'll do better.
After Happy Home, Happy Life or archived quest House, Sweet House

Heard you finished the first room of your house. Nothin’ warmer than a home you built with your own hands.
Pin Reactions
Any Pin
Hodari
I see you got yourself a pin.
None of my business, but good for you. Don't take it for granted.
Hodari
Thought I saw you stoppin' by Hassian's Grove the other day.
Don't worry, I ain't much for gossip.
Hodari's Pin [Self]
Hodari
...Pin looks good on you, darlin'.
Glad I finally got my act together to finish it.
Now I'll just have t'work hard to keep you wearin' it.
Hodari
You and the soup guy, huh?
Good for you. Never get involved with a man who can’t cook for himself.
Hodari
That explains why you've been doing so many errands around Bahari.
Tamala, huh?
