Dialogue

Villager Dialogue

Those Imps have a camp to the north of here.
The Imps you defeated probably came from there.
It's too dangerous to go in deep.
Of course missions are important, but your life is more important.

Villager Dialogue (Alt)

There are more Imps to the north of our camp.
Take care of yourself.

Black Spirit Completion

Why are these Imps called Steel Imps? I've always been curious about that.
Maybe it's because these Imps are as tough as steel.
How about we give you the title, Steel Adventurer?
It's funny. Don't lie. I can see you trying not to laugh, hee hee.
