Dialogue

Rubin Dialogue

Thanks. I wonder what made Charles think it was a good idea to spend all his money on them...
Could you get your hands on a Mysterious Chest and find out for me?

Rubin Dialogue (Alt)

You can purchase a Mysterious Chest at the Mysterious Workshop,
but I heard you can also get some simply by doing some favors for the workers there.

Rubin Completion

I see, merchants and the workers at the workshop
came up with these chests to make use of left-over materials.
It's fun to buy these and see what's inside,
but I imagine it could get addictive.
Hey, now that I think about it,
the Mysterious Chests I've seen before never looked this shabby!
