Bartholomeo Dialogue

I didn't know that those rumors caught you interest, haha.
You're right. This has been the subject of most conversations around Calpheon.
Even I gave up about figuring out
his or her identity.
This person has been helping not only the poor
free of any charges... but have also sometimes
helped even the merchants and high-ranked people from the city.
Are they paying for those services...? I heard that they are even helping the poor.

Bartholomeo Dialogue (Alt)

I thought it was just nonsense
but apparently, there are several witnesses...

Clara Siciliano Completion

Are you a guest? I guess not.
