VulcanusmonI'm glad you're here! You know... I have to apologize for my rudeness before.

VulcanusmonI'd be delighted if from now on any items crafted by this workshop could serve you.

VulcanusmonI'd need to charge for materials and labor, but all of our items are top-shelf.

VulcanusmonIt's good to see you. What can I do for you today?

PlayerShow me what you've got for sale.

PlayerDidn't you need some advice?

PlayerI'll be back later.

VulcanusmonOf course! Please take a look.

VulcanusmonYes, advice... Take a look at this. It washed up here not too long ago.

VulcanusmonIt looks like an action-figure hand. But this detail! Like it could come to life!

VulcanusmonYou appreciate fine cfraftmanship, too, yes?

VulcanusmonVery well. I'll see you again, then.

PlayerYes, I do.

PlayerAre those supposed to be earthworms?

PlayerAre you sure this is from an action figure?

VulcanusmonAh, you have a keen eye! As you can see, each individual finger is expertly recreated.

VulcanusmonWell, I guess not all humans are well-versed in the art form that is action figures.

VulcanusmonWhat? You think it's an actual human hand? Haha. No way... Or at least I hope not.

VulcanusmonAt any rate, it's a wonderful piece. You can really get a feel for the artist's passion.

VulcanusmonIf possible, I'd like to get a figure from the same series as this particular part.

VulcanusmonMaybe you could go to that Akihabara place and look for it?

PlayerSure. No problem.

PlayerDoes it have to be Akihabara?

PlayerSorry. I'm busy right now. Maybe some other time.

VulcanusmonOh, so you'll do it? I'm looking forward to seeing what you find.

VulcanusmonAkihabara is where you can find all of the latest tech, so I'd prefer you go there.

VulcanusmonYes, you must have a lot going on. Okay, please come back when you've got some time.

VulcanusmonI'd like to ask you again... Would you go to Akihabara for me?

PlayerSure thing.

PlayerShow me what you've got for sale.

PlayerI'm still busy.

VulcanusmonOh, so you'll do it? I'm looking forward to seeing what you find.

VulcanusmonYou're still busy, huh? All right. Come back when you're free.

VulcanusmonHere. You can take this piece as a reference.

VulcanusmonOh, that reminds me... Something else washed ashore with that part.

VulcanusmonI think it's some kind of receipt from a model store. You should check there first.

VulcanusmonWell, good luck to you!

Shop ManagerWelcome to my shop. What can I do for you? Hm? This looks like an action figure part...

Shop ManagerEven with twenty years of experience, I can't determine the origin from the hand alone.

Shop ManagerOne of my regulars is even more knowledgeable than I am, though. Maybe you could ask her?

Dr. SimmonsOh! This is quite the coincidence. I didn't know you also liked action figures.

Dr. SimmonsWhat's that you've got there? ...Huh? Wait... Oh!

Dr. SimmonsIt's off a limited-edition "snacking" version of the Sayori the Cutie Magician figure!

PlayerYou know where this part is from?

PlayerHow could you tell from just the hand?

PlayerYou're really into this kind of thing.

Dr. SimmonsOf course I do! It was all anybody could talk about. You mean you don't know it?!

Dr. SimmonsLook at the fingertips. The bits of sweets prove it's from the snacking edition.

Dr. SimmonsWell, action figures are an art form that I believe everyone should take an interest in.

Dr. SimmonsSomeone was impressed by the level of detail and asked you to look into this figure?

Dr. SimmonsI suggest you buy the "Fully Poseable" Sayori figure. They'll be super happy with it.

Dr. SimmonsAlso, I'd like to meet this person someday. I think we'd have much to talk about.

Dr. SimmonsPlease introduce me if you ever get the chance. I think we'd have much to talk about.

Shop ManagerYou want the Fully Poseable Sayori the Cutie Magician figure?

Shop ManagerYou're lucky! This is the last one in stock!

Shop ManagerNaturally, items this rare don't come cheap... It'll cost
600,000 YEN.

PlayerThat's way too much.

PlayerWhy does it cost so much?

PlayerCan't you sell it a bit cheaper than that?!

Shop ManagerI'm afraid this is my best offer. It's a difficult item to keep in stock...

Shop ManagerIt's a popular item, so it's hard to keep in stock. I'm barely making a profit here.

Shop ManagerI know how you feel, but this is as low as I can go on this particular item.

Shop ManagerThis is as low as the price can go. So, what'll it be?

Dr. SimmonsI overheard you talking just now. The price has gone up considerably since I last saw it.

Dr. SimmonsI know someone asked you to look for the figure, but does it have to do with Digimon?

Dr. SimmonsIf it's for a Digimon, I'll buy it for you... Please wrap it up for us, would you?

Shop ManagerThank you for your business!

Shop ManagerWow... I was planning to just put it on display. I never thought it'd actually sell!

Dr. SimmonsI'll need a receipt, too, please.

Shop ManagerOkay, here is your item, along with the receipt. Be careful with it!

Dr. SimmonsHere you go. The Fully Poseable Sayori figure is all yours.

Dr. SimmonsYou'll have to tell me sometime what you needed this for.

You took the action figure to Vulcanusmon.

VulcanusmonYou're back. And you brought me something?

VulcanusmonThank you. Let's see here... Wait. Is this what I think it is?!

VulcanusmonWow! Th-This is amazing! I can't believe my eyes right now!

PlayerAre you impressed?

PlayerWhat's so amazing about it?

PlayerI'm sick of hearing about this!

VulcanusmonImpressed doesn't begin to describe how I feel! I'm overwhelmed with emotion!

VulcanusmonIt'd take forever to explain. The details are so flawless, it looks like it's alive!

VulcanusmonY-You are? Well, I'm simply glad you found me something so amazing.

VulcanusmonThe skill on display in Akihabara is beyond my wildest dreams. I must study this figure.

VulcanusmonYou did an amazing job. Thank you so much! Take this as a token of my gratitude.

VulcanusmonI must say... Akihabara has to be an absolute paradise if it's full of items like this!

VulcanusmonI can't ask someone to go on my behalf all the time. I must visit it for myself someday!
