Dialogue[]

(First interaction)
Northern Beggar: Greetings, I have a question requiring your help: Have you seen a person with a ram's horn aboard the Skysplitter?
Icon Dialogue Arrow Hmm, don't think I've seen someone like that...
Northern Beggar: Me neither, though I didn't really expect to meet in-person...
Icon Dialogue Arrow I have, but I'm not sure if it's the same person?
Northern Beggar: You have? I doubt there's a second person with a ram's horn stuck on their head, but I haven't seen him.
Northern Beggar: I shall describe the person in greater detail: It's a ram's horn on top of their head, wearing a monocle, donning a crown of fire, draped in an elegant robe, alabaster-white gloves, and very expensive boots... topped off with the daunting aura of a powerful warrior.
Icon Dialogue Arrow You know Duke Inferno?
Northern Beggar: Duke Inferno? Isn't he THE bigwig from the Annihilation Gang? We're not talking about the same person. I'm looking for an internet friend called "Southern Emperor."
Icon Dialogue Arrow You'll probably never see him again...
Northern Beggar: Why so serious? Southern Emperor promised me that he'd meet me after some banquet.
Northern Beggar: That Southern Emperor really didn't say much, but I could tell he was extraordinary from those few lines. We said on the dark net that we'd meet up. From his demeanor, I can tell he isn't one to renege on his words.
Northern Beggar: Not that this was a wasted trip anyway. Just look at you, (young mister/young miss). One glance at your countenance and I can tell you're not an ordinary person. Right now, there's a famished homeless person standing before you...
Northern Beggar: Using your common sense, shouldn't it be time to... offer me something?
Icon Dialogue Arrow You're filthy, I'm leaving.
Northern Beggar: It's not that bad, I'm in clean mode today. Those of us in the service industry are all about hygiene and cleanliness.
Icon Dialogue Arrow You trying to fleece someone nice like me?
Northern Beggar: Oh come on, just go on the net. We beggars have to record our entire process, we're absolutely legal.
Icon Dialogue Arrow That's not even a segue, it's a non sequitur!
Northern Beggar: I mean, (sir/lady), internet friends are temporary, but begging for food is forever.
Northern Beggar: Don't worry, I'm not one of those pesky low-class beggars. You have my personal guarantee that all emotional values are clearly marked.
(Continue onto dialogue options below)

(Subsequent interactions)
Northern Beggar: So, how about it, old friend? How about some emotional offerings?
Icon Dialogue Shop Here's some money, lay som emotional value on me.

Northern Beggar: May the Reignbow bless you!
Icon Dialogue TalkIt's better if we just have a chat...
Northern Beggar: Alright, what d'you want to talk about? Everything's fair game, but let's stay away from client confidentiality stuff.
Icon Dialogue Talk The Xianzhou Luofu is a proverbial utopia, how are there still beggars?
Northern Beggar: You're right. The Luofu has long eliminated poverty, and now absolutely no one has to beg for a warm bed and a hot meal. Which is what makes begging even more meaningful!
Northern Beggar: If someone writes just for a living, he will never be elevated to a master of his profession. If one robs for survival, he will never gain notoriety as a feared bandit. The same principle applies.
Northern Beggar: If I begged for lodging and food, I'd never become a... grand beggar? It is because I can choose not to beg, that being a beggar is a way of life, a profession of choice, and a lifelong pursuit!
Icon Dialogue Arrow Your way of deriving satisfaction is weird.
Northern Beggar: You're mistaken, I do not lack satisfaction, I do it for the satisfaction of the Luofu's citizens.
Icon Dialogue Arrow Sounds like you're just draining everyone's compassion.
Northern Beggar: That's not true! I do it for the satisfaction of the Luofu's citizens.
Northern Beggar: Animals instinctively help one another, but life on the Luofu is too perfect. Just think about it! When everyone is fed and clothed, how can they satisfy their instinctual need to help?
Northern Beggar: Indeed, you can make donations to Thalassa's Hope Elementary School, to help those brave little merkids escape the treacherous trench. But that will take many years before you see results. Modern folk require more instant gratification than that.
Northern Beggar: But if you choose to give me that money, I'll be able to afford a delicious meal this instant. And because I'm unemployed, I REALLY need this money. Since giving money to those who need it is an act of kindness, why does it matter who it's given to?
Northern Beggar: You got it now? Begging is a noble way of life! I am fulfilling my clients' emotional value in "performing an act of kindness."
Icon Dialogue Talk Let's talk about that friend you're looking for.
Northern Beggar: *sigh* I've never actually seen him in person, he's just an internet friend I knew on the interstellar dark net. Honestly, we're not even that close. We only connect because of shared interests.
Northern Beggar: Our common ground lies in "discussing ways to destroy the world"... And since then, we gathered a small following. Including me, there are four of us called the "Four Greats."
Northern Beggar: We all have our own specialties — Eastern Heretic, Western Venom, Southern Emperor, and Northern Beggar. You'll get it immediately. I'm that "Northern Beggar," and the person I'm waiting for is "Southern Emperor."
Northern Beggar: I scoff at the other two, but this Southern Emperor is a mysterious one. He rarely speaks, but has some sort of inexplicable persuasiveness to him. Could he really be some big shot?
Northern Beggar: The Southern Emperor said he'd meet a friend after attending some banquet. I believe him.
Icon Dialogue Arrow (Take out The Ashblazing Grand Duke)
Item The Ashblazing Grand Duke
Northern Beggar: Honestly, I have trouble believing this is what he left behind, even if it looks really authentic...
Icon Dialogue Arrow The Southern Emperor may never be able to come...
Northern Beggar: Could he have gotten into an accident? *sigh* That's how unpredictable life is.
Northern Beggar: If he's really gone forever, I will face the roiling flames and pay my sincere respects to him. I can't condone his ideals, but I admire the way he pursued them — undaunted, unwavering, and untainted!
Icon Dialogue Talk Do you have any experience in begging?
Northern Beggar: Honesty's my middle name — when it comes to skills in begging, in this domain, I'm pretty much the de facto leader.
Northern Beggar: Take targets for begging, for example: They can't look too affluent, or they'll definitely snub you. But they also can't be too impoverished, or you'll end up giving him handouts instead.
Northern Beggar: As for begging taglines, that's even harder. If you see an IPC fellow, you have to say, "May the Amber Lord protect you." If it's an Intelligentsia Guild scholar, it's "May Nous guide you." If you can't really tell, the Reignbow will bless them.
Northern Beggar: Also, contentment is key — you can't be picky about the offering. If it's too much, you distribute some of it to others. If it's too little, you can't gripe about it either... I mean, you're nothing without the benevolence of others!
Icon Dialogue Exit We'll catch up another time.
Northern Beggar: May the Reignbow bless you!
Icon Dialogue Exit I haven't got cash on me today, another time.
Northern Beggar: All good, I'll be waiting here for you. May the Reignbow bless you!
