==Dialogue==
Koh Rabntah: Aha! I thought an inquiring mind like yours could not resist my offer. Well, come then, produce the records of NOAH's expeditions to the Crystal Tower.
Koh Rabntah: I seek nothing so crude as a tome, though. No, memories speak far truer than written words, my girl. Kindly conjure all you have seen in the Crystal Tower within your own mind.
Koh Rabntah: No, no, do not tell me either! <sigh> You are clearly unfamiliar with oneiromantic pearls. These are devices capable of holding memories─an invention born of my beloved oneiromancy and some technological manipulation of the mind.
Koh Rabntah: Now, allow your mind to drift back to all you have done with NOAH, every battle fought and comrade lost. Think hard, that I might transfer your experiences to oneiromantic pearls. I shall peruse these memories when you are done, and judge your worthiness by them.
Koh Rabntah: My offer has brought you back yet again, eh? 'Tis lucky for you I never tire of viewing memories.
Koh Rabntah: As before, you will need to relive your time in the labyrinth, tower, and dark realm. Remember each and every tiny detail, so I may seal the memories within oneiromantic pearls for the viewing.
Koh Rabntah: Have you turned your mind's eye to all three places that NOAH investigated? Pray, relive every painful moment and glorious battle, and I shall see all the memories sealed within oneiromantic pearls.
Koh Rabntah: I take it you have recalled all you accomplished with NOAH. The spirit of inquiry in me can scarce wait to see how you faced adversity in the shadow of my civilization. The pearls, if you will be so good.
Koh Rabntah: Thank you. Well, has this fellowship of NOAH outfitted itself bravely amidst Allag's ruins? We shall see, we shall see.
Koh Rabntah: Dear me! 'Twould seem our two ages are closely intertwined. And even now, this fellow with the Royal Eye sleeps within the Crystal Tower in hopes that it may light the future?
Koh Rabntah: I see. Well, beholding your exploits has certainly proven your worthiness in my eyes. I would give you this as thanks. 'Tis an article born of most ancient knowledge; I think you shall find some use for it on your adventures.
Koh Rabntah: <sigh> 'Tis a pity that oneiromantic pearls offer but a single viewing, though... I always miss something the first time. So I shall make you a deal─another token of my wisdom for another look at your memories!
Koh Rabntah: I quite look forward to it! And in the meantime, there is much else I would see in this enchanting age. Yes, I do believe I shall inhabit Koh's body for a bit longer.
Koh Rabntah: Your readiness to think back upon all you have done is commendable in the highest! I cannot imagine reliving every moment was pleasant; your reward shall be equal to your tribulations!
Koh Rabntah: Yes, you are indeed worthy of this token of my wisdom. I wish I could offer more, but I dare not lest I hurt Koh's body. So here, take this, and may it light your way to greater adventure still.
