Moon Beauties

I don't need anything right now.

I heard that Moon Beauties could be found around here... But I can't seem to find any.

Based on current information, they are small flowers that only glisten in the moonlight... More information on the subject is required.

Good call...

Hmm... Should I go? What to do...

Huh? That voice...?

It's dangerous over there. But it's the only place where Moon Beauties bloom...

Did I just hear "Moon Beauties"?

I heard it, too! And my parabolic reflector is never wrong!

All right. Let's see if we can't get more info.

Hey, do you have a minute?

Wh-Whoaaa! A-A human?! Don't eat me! Stay away!

I have no intention of eating you. We just want to talk is all.

Talk?

Did you just say something about "Moon Beauties"?

Umm, yeah, I did... Are you by chance here in search of that flower?

Yeah. It's just that we don't know where they bloom... Would you mind telling us?

I-In that case, could you get me one, too?! My girlfriend loves that flower. I came here hoping to get her one as a present... But I'm scared of a large monster on the Serena Coast that loves the scent of that flower...

S-Scared? Of a monster?

That is quite unexpected coming from the likes of you!

*sigh* To be honest, I'm not nearly as strong as I look!

That's why I'm begging you! In addition to what you need yourself, could get me one of the flowers as well?

Okay. We'll do it. We'll begin our search right away!

Thank you so much! Moon Beauties bloom in the vicinity of Rinde... Near two parallel bridges. Remember, a special process is required to keep the flower from withering, so get it back here as soon as possible.

Precautions noted! Input complete!

Then let's go!

Oh. Are you back for more Moon Beauties? I hate to ask again, but could you get me one, too? I want to give my girl a lot of presents.

Sure, no problem.

Thanks! I'll be waiting here, so come back as soon as you've picked the flowers. If you don't...

The flowers will quickly wither without special processing. We understand! Don't worry!

Then let's go!

Oh! Tiny flowers! This must be what we're after.

No doubt about it. This flower has a stronger scent than other flowers in the area.

Let's pick these and hurry back. He said they'd wither if we didn't get back soon...

Hmm?

A monster?!

This must be that monster that the beast said likes the scent of Moon Beauties!

So it's coming for these flowers then! Oh well...

I guess we'll have to fight our way through!

Understood!

Phew... Let's get outta here before more show up.

Yes. Our destination is over there.

Aldo! Please wait!

Is something wrong?

Seriously?! Is there no way to avoid them?

From the south, I detect three feeble life forms... From the north, I detect one powerful life form!

So I'm stuck with monsters either way.

You are correct.

The monsters to the south aren't strong, but who knows how many I'll have to fight? There's only one to the north, but it appears to be strong.

The flowers will wither if not specially processed, so we need to return quickly. In terms of time, I recommend the north. If we don't work hard to get the flowers back, we will end up with nothing! Whether you choose the safer southern route or the faster northern route is up to you, Aldo!

Aldo! Enemy responses ahead! Please stop!

Really?!

It seems ferocious! Just like you said!

The monsters are spurred on by the scent of the Moon Beauties. Let's get this fight started!

Yeah! Understood!

It definitely was strong. But there are no other monsters on this road, right?

Yes! All that's left is to return to our beast friend!

Let's hurry back before the flowers wither!

There's not a second to lose!

As detected previously, the enemies are not strong. You can beat them easily!

We'll have to quickly fight our way through!

Understood!

Like you said, they were easily defeated. But you detect any more of them?

Yes. Several of the same monster's responses are waiting up ahead!

I see. They're not going to make it easy for us. We need to keep moving!

Aldo! The responses are closer than before!

That has to be them.

Let's go, Riica!

Commencing battle!

All right, we did it!

Riica, do you detect any more of them?

A slight response only.

Got it. Then let's hurry!

Riica, what's wrong? Are there more monsters?

Yes. But this response... Where is it?

It was hiding over there?!

Let's go, Riica!

A cowardly surprise attack!

We are almost to the location where that beast awaits... Are you detecting any others?

No! I'm not detecting any responses like the ones from before. We can safely proceed from here on out!

All right! Let's hurry back!

You got the flower for me! Thank you so much. I was too scared to make the trip on my own...

No need to thank us. But please do what needs to be done to preserve the flowers.

Of course. Could you hand me the flowers?

Let's see...

I can hardly wait!

This is guaranteed to make for a romantic present!

Yeah! These are lovely Moon Beauties just like the ones my girlfriend loves!

That's good to hear.

I am sure it will make your girlfriend happy!

Umm, that's good...?

It is embarrassing...

Thank you so much. Talk to me whenever you want more Moon Beauties. I'll preserve them for you.

Sure. Until then!
