Dialogue
Maru: Look what I've got, <name> -- soap nuts! The folks at Palaka's Stand sent them over, so I made some hippo soap.
Maru: Our hippos are bathin' down at the Great Work as we speak...You think you could run this to the caretaker for me?
(Optional)
Wading Hippo: Pohhhhhh...
System: This hippo is peacefully wading in the clear, clean water.
Caretaking Rider: Hello, <name>! Come to take a dip?
Caretaking Rider: Oh, you brought soap! That's awfully kind of you. Our hippos love gettin' lathered.
Caretaking Rider: Say, care to give it a try? It isn't hard -- just use that soap and start scrubbin'!
Wading Hippp: Poh, pooohhhhhh!
System: The hippo's eyes crinkle with delight as you lather it up with soap.
Wading Hippp: Poh, Poooooohhh! Poh, poh, bhurrrrrr...
Caretaking Rider: Hahaha, that's it! Just look at her -- well pleased indeed!
Caretaking Rider: Keepin' our hippos relaxed an' happy is an important part of the job. We aren't Riders without our hippos, after all! Thanks for the soap -- tell Maru we'll be along soon.
(Optional) Caretaking Rider: Doesn't she look like happiness itself? I'll let her enjoy the water a little longer before headin' back.
(Optional) Wading Hippp: Poooooohhhhhhhhh!
Maru: Did the hippos like their soap?
Maru: I'm glad...I like usin' soap nuts 'cause they clean real well without irritatin' hippo skin. Hippos sweat differently than we do, so you've gotta be careful not to throw off their natural balance.
Maru: We can always wash up here, but lettin' our hippos relax down at the Great Work does wonders for their mood. An' there ain't no sight sweeter than a happy hippo...
