Dialogue[edit]

After talking to Astral Ward Culinary Specialist Torchmarrow
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: We are delegates from Nayos—
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: Obviously.
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: Here to experience the delicacies of Tyria.
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: Noodles! Noodles! Hot, hot noodles!
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: What is a "noodle"?
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: It is not meat, so I am not interested. The seared innards of a crustacean—I've heard tell that is a delight.
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: Ahr but Tyrian vegetation is quite intriguing to me. Such stunning variations in cotor and texture!
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: That sounds positively foul.
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: Chicken! Duck! Griffon!
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: I will consume anything. Well. Not my fellow Kryptis. Of course.
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: I apologize. We are all quite eager for this cultural exchange, as you might have gathered.
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: Can you procure these delicacies? This food preparation expert of yours prepare them once they're all delivered.
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: We will try to save some for you. Or perhaps you will visit Nayos and partake of essence-marinated bristlefruit?
Approaching the delegation before completion of the collection
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: This is taking some time. you had to ask for those torched sand.. .insects. Much harder to catch than vegetation.
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: I prey on my meal. Not graze like one of their bleating, meat-filled quadrupeds.
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: Hot, hot noodles will need cold, cold ale! (slurps)
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: Please, do not be rude to our hosts. I'm sure they are doing all in their power to meet our requests.
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: Let us hope so. The little one's aroma is beginning to tempt me.

Talk more option tango.png All right.
(When Tyrian Taste Testing is active)
Talk collection option.png Have any spare jars of your finest bloodstone-infused condiments?
I'm happy to share with someone who believes in my vision. Just note: sharing isn't always free.
Talk merchant tango.png I'll pay whatever it takes.
Talk end option tango.png I'll be back later.
Talk end option tango.png No, thanks.
Narcisse
Wayfinder! Aren't they beautiful?
Talk collection option.png So beautiful. Is any of this edible? Could I maybe grab some for the road?
If you want to take anything from the garden, you must first help better the garden. I might have an opportunity for you soon enough. I can smell the corruption coming closer and closer...
Talk end option tango.png I'll do my best.
Talk end option tango.png You've done good work here.

During the event

Talk collection option.png So beautiful. Is any of this edible? Could I maybe grab some for the road?
Edible? Why would you_[sic]forget it. Help us cleanse this corruption, and you can take whatever you want, Wayfinder. Just hurry!
Talk end option tango.png I'll do my best.
Lodge Keeper Kevach
Talk collection option.png Do you mind if I take a keg of ale with me? I've heard good things.
(If heart is not completed)
If you want anything from me, you're going to have to help out around here. Help out the lodge, then come find me.
Talk end option tango.png I'll do my best.
(If heart is completed)
After everything you've done to help the lodge, I'm sure we can spare a keg for you.
Talk collection option.png I appreciate that. Thank you.
Grand Archivist Vivienne
Talk collection option.png So, we're putting together a meal for the Kryptis delegation from Nayos...
So I've heard. Can't say I'm exactly comfortable with it, but if Isgarren's fine with it, then I will be too. And who knows - maybe some of their goods will fill the vault someday. So. Why come to me?
Talk more option tango.png Do you have any eggs?
I'm sorry, did you say eggs?
Talk more option tango.png Sure did. One of them likes eggs. The older, the better.
The things we do for diplomacy... (sighs) Yes, there's an old crate of ancient eggs collected from under the ashes of Mount Maelstrom centuries ago. We've been saving them for a special occasion...
Talk more option tango.png Good news! This is that special occasion.
I've heard these prepared just right are to die for. Literally - you have to cook them in hot magma.So, here's what I'll do: I'll send the crate out above the cauldron in Mount Maelstrom.
Talk more option tango.png Uh-huh...
You'll shoot the crate with your skyscale's fireball to open it up. The eggs will fall into the magma below, and you'll need to collect them before they burn. That's on you to figure out, not me.
Talk collection option.png Piece of cake. Or egg, I guess. I'm off to Mount Maelstrom!
Good luck. Please, try not to waste them. I'd prefer not to send another scouting party to any volcanic region to get more eggs like this.
Talk end option tango.png I'll do my best!
Talk end option tango.png On second thought, I'll ask later.
Talk end option tango.png On second thought, I'll ask later.
Talk end option tango.png On second thought, I'll ask later.
Talk end option tango.png On second thought, I'll ask later.
Talk end option tango.png On second thought, I'll ask later.
Talk end option tango.png That'd be correct. I'll be leaving now.
Upon Event Completion
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: Have you tried the egg? The stench wraps its tendrils around my very soul. I must have more!
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: What is this gelatinous spread? Knaebelag's blood?
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: Yes. My digestive tract is aflame. More ale is required. And more of those sandy bugs!
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: Mix together, noodles and crab, floating in ale! Ah! Good! So good!
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: Thank you. Thank you all. This moment. This is the greatest moment I have experienced in the last 200,000 days.
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: I can live in Tyria now, no?
Hungry Kryptis Delegate: Again, apologies. We did not have the willpower to wait. But we greatly appreciate this act of diplomacy, Wayfinder.
