Ambient dialogue

Mentor: Many view the night as a cloak that dampens the senses. Others see it as revealing hidden aspects.

Sapling: I suppose it depends wheter you bloomed during the Cycle of Night, or Day.

Citizen (1): Don't forget! You promised to teach me how to juggle later!

Citizen (2): I'm unlikely to forget. You keep reminding me. (laugh)

Sapling: Mentor, where is Ventari now?

Mentor: Where is he? He's dead.

Sapling: What does that mean?

Mentor: No one knows what death is exactly. The Dream doesn't reveal what happens after death.

Mentor (1): The newborns come in greater numbers every day.

Mentor (1): I worry that we can't guide them all down the right path.

Mentor (2): We have to trust in the wisdom of Ventari and nature itself. If they come, it's for a good reason.

Mentor (1): The stars, moon, and sun move across the sky. They mark the changing cycles.

Citizen: And we follow their signs?

Mentor (1): We have no other choice. We are as much part of them as they are us.

Mentor (2): Our challenge is to find the meaning behind both their movements and our own.

Mentor (1): This pouch is our gift to you. Guard it carefully. It protects you and keeps you connected to nature.

Citizen: What's in it?

Mentor (2): It holds bits of the pod from which you were born. There's also sweetgrass and sage.

Citizen: How do you know where to begin your life?

Mentor: You don't have to worry about it. It's already begun.

Notes

• Swimming to the back of the northern-most lake in the Garden of Dawn reveals a hidden entrance to a beautiful grotto with a waterfall.
• Required to swim under the rocks (hidden entrance) to the beautiful grotto to fill your bucket with Grove water for Kudzu III: Leaf of Kudzu achievement. It will prompt you to fill your bucket. You receive 1 Bucket of Pure Grove Water in your inventory.
• When approaching the far end of Dawngleam Pergola with Meteorlogicus I: The Experimental Scepter active:

The air is full of mist from the water cascading down around the grotto.

Take a sample of the mist. (Ends dialogue and gives Soothing Mist.)
