Quest Acceptance
Jeryk: Right, then. The Talos...their hearts cannot be made of just any stone. You need a special sort with sufficient aetherial conductivity. Both it and the other materials used in the construction of Talos bodies are mined in the same place... Jeryk: That place, of course, being here. The Hills of Amber... Jeryk: And it was three years ago when...when she... Jeryk: No, no I can't. I'm sorry, but you'll have to hear it from Thaffe or someone else.
Thancred: <sigh> Back to the tavern, then.
Speak with Thaffe
Thaffe: Still here, eh? You can ask again, but the answer's the same. Our trolleys are─ Thaffe: What!? Godsdammit Jeryk. You could've at least finished so I wouldn't have to clean up your mess. Seeing how you made such quick progress in fixing that Talos and all, he was probably thinking you could help change things around here. And I think he may be right... Gather your friends, and I'll tell you what you want to know.
Cutscene with Thaffe
Thaffe: Magnus's wife was a miner, you know. Greatest prospector there ever was. When the golem hearts started failing, she was the first to head out in search of more. Problem was, most of the veins ran dry ages ago, and finding fresh ones to tap's only gotten harder. But she wasn't one to be deterred. She just kept digging deeper and deeper. And then the mine collapsed. We labored day and night to clear away the rubble, but it took us two months to find her... Thaffe: ...To find her body.
Thaffe: Magnus has never been the same since. (Minfilia looks up and then down upon hearing this)
Thancred: Where is he, if you don't mind my asking? Ah, yes, well...if he's not here, there's only one other place he'd be.
At the graveyard
Magnus: (Magnus is sitting in front of a grave) What? Oh... You again. How many times must I tell you─the trolley won't run! We'd be better off dismantling the damn thing and selling the parts for scrap. Magnus: (Sobbing) Now piss off back to wherever you came from, and don't let me catch you around here again. Thancred: ...What were their names? (Magnus looks up) Magnus: My son was named Skuli. My wife, Agna. (Magnus looks down at the bottle he's carrying with him) Being here with them...it beats going home. Home stopped being home when I lost them. I thought to try and drown my sorrows...but somehow...the bottle's never deep enough. Thancred: No bottle is. Believe me─I know. Magnus: You've lost someone too?
Thancred: Not like you. Not my own flesh and blood. I grew up an orphan, so I never really knew what family meant. (Thancred looks at the sky) Not until I met a man who offered to take me in and make me his pupil. He was a kindly soul. Always looking out for me, like a father. Not that I appreciated that at the time, or anything else for that matter... Thancred: But I finally had a family. And then...and then I robbed a young girl of hers. I did my best to make amends, to offer her comfort. But the more I look back on it, the more I realize just how inadequate my efforts were. I let her down. That is why I refuse to let her legacy die. (Thancred glances over towards Minfilia) In the end, all we can do is press on. For those we have lost. For those we can yet save. And that requires your Talos. Please, Magnus. You are our only hope of reaching Nabaath Areng. Magnus: ...What rubbish. (Magnus doesn't move, and Thancred walks away from Magnus)
Minfilia: She's not gone. No matter what you say or believe, she's not. We can still bring her back. (Thancred gently pats Minfilia on the head and walks off, saying nothing. Minfilia looks saddened)
Minfilia: Why must he always treat me like this... Thaffe: I wish there was more we could do for you, I truly do. But after Agna's accident, no one is allowed near those mines. Magnus: If not for those damned Talos, she'd...she'd...
Speak with Urianger
Urianger: Full well do I know the pain of loss and how heavily it can weigh on one's heart. Nevertheless, there is but one way forward. We must needs procure a new heart for the Talos. Thaffe. Knowest thou any location wherein we might find the stone we require? No matter how scant the possibility, we would seize it. Thaffe: I told you near all of the veins were tapped dry years ago. ...Though I suppose, if you really wanted to try, you may find something at Nuvy's Leavings. It was opened well before Talos became commonplace, which is why the mining there was never quite as deep. When you get there, look for Guthjon and tell him I sent you. But don't be surprised if he tells you the same thing. Urianger: Thine assistance is most appreciated. [Forename]. I think it best Thancred join thee in this search. Though he wouldst be quick to deny it, his heart is in turmoil, and his thoughts clouded. 'Twould be unwise to ignore his distress.
Search for Thancred
Thancred: Off to somewhere, are you? At last, a lead on the stone we need to power the Talos. I can't very well have you go on your own. Lead the way.
