Dialogue

Grusha Dialogue

Ah, but... it's difficult to get the materials.
Only Black Stones of a purity of at least 73% will work.
Papa brought some such stones to class last week,
but I think... I used them all up... heh... heh...
Color me surprised. I should have brought Clorince along.
She would have come up with another plan, surely...
I'm sorry...
I'm not Clorince...
I think you're crossing the line here, Tachros.
My grandfather will hear of your behavior.
Eileen, don't give up. There is always a way.
We will find it together.
Well... I-I suppose certain ingredients can be substituted...
But we'd need... an object one would sacrifice their life for.

Grusha Dialogue (Alt)

Color me surprised. I should have brought Clorince along.
She would have come up with another plan, surely...

Grusha Completion

I have a Black Stone!
It once belonged to the old chief!
Singular mind, eh?
You keep mum until we start on about Goblins.
That Black Stone is better put to use elsewhere.
Right now, we have a better tool at our disposal - the Goblins themselves.
