Dialogue

Villager Dialogue

The w-woods... Their face... or, no face?!
The horror!
Hey, snap out of it!
Tell me so I can understand... What... did... you... see?
Their face....
I... I'm cursed... now... CURSED, I tell you!
Sigh... What the heck did those poor bastards encounter..
My apologies, but I can't leave my friend here by themselves...
If it's alright with you, could you go investigate what lies in the woods in my stead?

Their face... or, no face...

Villager Completion

There wasn't anything special, you say? That's a relief...
Thought they might've seen the faces of a Tree Hermit or something.
You should take care of yourself, adventurer.
Legend has it that those who dare peer into the face of a Tree Hermit end up being cursed forever.
Well, it's all hocus-pocus, mumbo-jumbo to me...
