Hmm, I heard that Abdul Jaum understands the language of the Barbarians.
You're leaving already?
If you find out what the lyrics mean
please do tell the next time we meet! Promise me you will!

Villager Dialogue (Alt)

Did you already forget what I just said?
Abdul Jaum should be able to make sense of the lyrics.

Abdul Jaum Completion

Here to sharpen your skills? You've come to the right...Huh...?
You want me to translate something written in the language of the Barbarians?
Pretty bold of you to ask for something like that,
considering we just met.
