Jina: Dialogue: Gifting

After First Gift

At the Player's Housing Plot

Jina
So I don't know if you believe in the whole Luna Signs and Starstones thing...
I mean, I don't really know if I do! After all... astrology is really unscientific... but it can still be fun sometimes.
My Starstone is the Emerald, and I have to say the color green does make me feel at ease. Like, someday, maybe I'll find all the answers I'm searching for?
I don't know, it's probably silly. Anyway...
Whether or not you're into Starstones, maybe you'll still like the color? If not, it's seriously no big deal. + Mossy Emerald Stucco Wall

Starstone

Given Emerald

Jina
That's an emerald!
I... I don't know what to say, (Player)!
Thank you so much! I really mean it!
I mean, I always mean my thank yous, but this time I really really mean it!

Requests

Requesting Any Bug, Any Fish of Elderwood

Jina
I want to understand the Elderwood better. There's so much history there...
I think I want to have a look at a (Bug / Fish) next.

Requesting Bacon-Stuffed Mushrooms

Jina
My favorite dish from home was stuffed mushrooms.
But here I don't have time to cook.

Requesting Brightshroom

Jina
I'd be curious to try a Brightshroom. They say ingesting Flow can sometimes have some interesting side effects.
But I'm willing to give it a shot.

Requesting Cream of Mushroom Soup

Jina
My favorite dish at the Inn is mushroom soup.
Unfortunately, Reth rarely serves it.
Regardless of how many Mushrooms I bring him.

Requesting Flint, Glass Pane, Stone Brick

Jina
Ugh, I want to explore further into the Phoenix Shrine, but with the supports I have I can only go so far.
Maybe if I had some (flint / glass panes / stone bricks) I could expand my supports...

Requesting Mountain Morel

Jina
I'm really fond of mushrooms.
Did you know that every region in Palia has its own type of mushroom?
Kilima Valley is known far and wide for its quality mountain morels.

Requesting Mutated Angler

Jina
They say the Mutated Angler has been around since before the demise of Humans.
I'd like to find one to study.
Maybe there's clues about why they survived that could be useful for figuring out why Humans didn't.

Requests For Other Villagers

• For Hekla:

Requesting Briar Daisy, Sundrop Lily

Jina
It's so hard to get Hekla something she actually likes.
Everytime she asks for gifts, she just asks for stuff I like.
But, I've caught her staring at (Briar Daisies / Sundrop Lillies[sic]) when we’re in the field...so I think she likes those?

Requesting Green Pearl, Pearl

Jina
It's so hard to get Hekla something she actually likes.
Everytime she asks for gifts, she just asks for stuff I like.
But, I've caught her and Einar talking about "shiny pebbles."
I suspect they're referring to pearls....so maybe she likes those.

Requesting Pinecone, Acorn

Jina
It's so hard to get Hekla something she actually likes.
Everytime she asks for gifts, she just asks for stuff I like.
But, I've caught her collecting and planting (Tree Seeds)...so I think she likes those?

Responses

General Acceptance

Jina
Just what I was looking for! I knew you'd pull through!

Jina
Oh! You got something? For me?
Thank you!

General Rejection

Jina
You know, there's not a whole lot of room in my tent for knick knacks. I'll have to pass.

Duplicate Weekly Gift

Jina
You know I'd love to take this, but there's only so much room in my tent!
I guess I could store it inside Hekla...
No no! You better take it back before I get tempted.

Specific Rejection

Rejecting Ruined Food

Jina
This, um, isn't what I had in mind for dinner tonight.

Specific Responses

Given Apple Pie, Celebration Cake

Jina
Hekla will kill me for having dessert for dinner.
I guess I better have an actual dinner tonight, so I can eat this afterwards.

Given Brighteye Butterfly

Jina
Fun fact. Butterflies actually taste with their feet.
...so when a butterfly lands on you it's kinda like it's licking you.
Now that I think about it, that's a bit unsettling.

Given Coral

Jina
So...this doesn't have any particular archeological significance.
But it looks cool! Maybe I can use[sic] to decorate the tent?

Given Dari Cloves, Dragon's Beard Peat, Heat Root

Jina
Thanks! Sometimes cooking over the campfire can be a little bland.
It'll be nice to spice it up!
