1. Scene 1
13 linesWithout Nona, you can't advance "The Kelkale Examination."
You there, boy.
Huh? Me?
Any interest in KelQuiz?
I-in what?
The Kelkale Examination. KelQuiz for short. Tests all kinds of knowledge about Kelkale. Since this is the 1000th quiz, we're waiving all registration costs and entry restrictions.
That does sound interesting... But I don't know a lot about Kelkale, so I'll have to pass. Sorry.
Today only, you can take the quiz as many times as you like. And you can join with a partner.
Wow, when you said you were waiving the restrictions, you really meant ALL the restrictions, huh...
Hm...maybe if I entered with Claude, we could actually have a shot?
Let us not be careless, Aldo. We've been reading the books, but there are many books we have yet to see in the library in my time.
If I am to participate, I will not accept any risk of failure. We will get a perfect score in one attempt.
Fortunately, we can enter whenever we wish. For now, let us turn our efforts to studying!
2. Scene 2
57 linesWithout Nona, you can't advance "The Kelkale Examination."
We're here for the quiz.
Then let the 1000th Kelkale Examination... BEGIN!
Montmorillonite
Maple
The ABCs of cooking
Gator Pear
The Divine Manju is the soul food of every Kelkale citizen. What is the secret to its signature taste?
Are you just choosing that because it's fun to say? Montmorillonite is a volcanic mineral, not a food.
Incidentally, due to its absorptive qualities, Montmorillonite is often included in facial scrubs.
That's an ingredient for Seiro manju.
Aldo, "the ABCs of cooking" refers to basic seasonings used in a wide variety of dishes.
Ah, of course! Nothing but Gator Pear could impart that mellow sweetness and rich, soft yield!
Young and old
Sturdy youngsters
Brawny knights
Chosen royalty
Kelisthenics is a beautiful art. Who may participate in them?
Correct! Anyone may do Kelisthenics whenever they so wish! That is its beauty! Truly an art for all peoples!
You aren't entirely wrong, but Kelisthenics was developed to promote health to all, not simply the young.
Our proud knights could surely perform Kelisthenics for twenty hours straight. But no, that's wrong.
The royal chambers of Kelkale are open to one and all. We would never monopolize such a beautiful art.
No contact at all
Currently at war
Hostile relations
Always BFFs
Before 500 years of peace, our diplomatic relationship with neighboring Magnolia was:
I see. You are the type to answer immediately without reading all the possible answers.
Open warfare is not traditionally considered diplomatic relations. You should learn this.
We are at peace now, yes, but it was not always the case. Neighbors always find some causes to fight.
You are a dreamer, I see. It would be nice if such had been the case, but reality is cruel.
Equal to geothermal
Half of artificial prisma
400% of hydropower
800% of wind power
The cornerstone of Kelkale. Its power yield is:
Geothermal energy provides a stable energy flow, but its output is not that high.
Even with our technology, we are unable to reach the heights of artificial prisma. Such is the issue.
Unfortunately, no. Water is scarce in these polluted lands, but it does provide more power than that.
Wind power may be unstable, but the winds blow here year-round. You underestimate the breath of Kelkale.
Unbroken history
The magic barrier
The transformer
Kelkale Palace
What is the most precious thing in all of the Kingdom of Kelkale?
Hmm, all of these are important. But I guess the MOST important would be... This one?
(This question...could it be?)
Is that your final answer? (These boys did well, but this is as far as they go, I suppose...)
A moment, good sir. All of these things are vital, but none of them is the most important thing. Thus, every answer is wrong.
My answer is: the people! Without its people, the Kingdom is nothing, no matter what else it has.
...Am I wrong?
Huh? But that's not...
Excellent!!
The Kelkale Examination is now over. Here are your certificates of completion.
...Wasn't that kind of unfair?
Ho ho ho! And look at this! We have the very first perfect score since the Quiz began!
Obtained Kelkale Medal!
