== Dialogue ==
:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''I'm searching for the [[Font of Maguuma]]. Who's with me?''
:'''Arcanist Mariette:''' ''Whoa, hold it! You're going into the jungle alone? I didn't think so.''
:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''This is important, Mariette. I have to do this. I know how to find the Font of Maguuma!''
:'''Arcanist Mariette:''' ''And accomplish what? Your devotion to the [[Druid (group)|druid]] myth is impressive, if impractical. We're surrounded by Mordrem.''
:'''Sage Zende:''' ''Allow me to accompany you. We can help each other.''
:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''I...uh...well, finally someone who understands! Come if you're coming. Time's wasting.''
:'''Arcanist Mariette:''' ''Fine. But you better make it back or you're fired.''

:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''I don't care what they say; this is worth it. No one's reported seeing the Font of Maguuma for, what, decades?''
:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''Mordrem wolves. A pack of trouble, if you ask me.''

;In-between translations
:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''Hey! I can't translate with all this racket!''
:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''A little backup please! These druid markings won't translate themselves!''

;After finishing the first translations
:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''This is old. Hundred of years old.''
:'''Sage Zende:''' ''The druids were gone long before the Exalted arrived. Only their legend remains.''
:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''It's [[gww:Languages of Tyria#Old Krytan|Old Krytan]], barely visible. It says, "Long ago, we shed our human forms and became spirit guardians of the jungle.''
:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''Signal...us in times of crisis, and we will be there.''
:'''Sage Zende:''' ''No. I believe you mean "summon". Summon us. Summon us? They can be summoned?''

:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''The vine gates are gone. Betcha the watchpoint lighting up did that.''
:'''One of the following:'''
::'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''Spiders make my scruff itch.''
::'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''If only they didn't drop down from above.''

;After finishing the second translations
:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''I don't have the exact words but it says, "All that exists is all that has to be. By stations, scrub the water.''
:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''If equilibrium is lost, our elder restores the font only when it is restored.''
:'''Sage Zende:''' ''It seems safe to say that equilibrium has been lost.''
:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''What if the journal's wrong? No, this has to be the way.''
:'''One of the following:'''
::'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''Really? More tendrils? All right, then. C'mon!''
::'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''Obnoxious weeds''

;After finishing the third translations
:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''I believe it says, "The Maguuma is the heart of [[Tyria (world)|Tyria]]. It must be maintained.''
:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''I beseech you, future guardians of Maguuma. Heed these words.''
:'''Sage Zende:''' ''The markings are referring to...us.''
:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''Only in the vaguest possible way. But, by irons, I'll take their advice.''
:'''One of the following:'''
::'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''Hmm... Bet the mama thrasher is near.''
::'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''Thrashers look edible when small, but they're deadly when fully grown.''

;After finishing the final translations
:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''It says, "Face the source with...authentic heart and mind. Speak the words given and...merge with the waters.''
:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''Hey, I'm game! What about you?''
:'''Sage Zende:''' ''Your destination is just ahead. I will accompany you.''
:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''Careful there. Get too excited, and you might flake. Let's go.''
:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''Look. Pylons scattered everywhere.''
:'''Sage Zende:''' ''According to legend, these waters could heal.''
:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''Let's hope it's true. If so, this could turn the tide of this war.''
:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''Finally, the Font of Maguuma. (laughs) Wasn't sure I'd find it.''
:'''Scholar Keenwit:''' ''And look at that! There's the mama thrasher!''
