Dialogue

Optional

Urianger: Though the Nu Mou may appear placid and amicable, be fairly warned that they live by uncompromising codes.
Urianger: Codes such as that which sayeth the payment must precisely befit the service. Be it an item or a task, have care thou givest neither more nor less than what is requested.

Thancred: Well enough to be served. The question is whether we can provide a fitting reward.

Minfilia: What do I need help with? Hmmm... 

Accepting the Quest

Wyd Aenc: You will offer your patronage to our people too, yes? 
Wyd Aenc: Let's see... Perhaps you can begin with Marn Ose. They are one of our foremost artisans, once held in the highest esteem by the knights of Voeburt. 
Wyd Aenc: With the knights gone, however, Marn Ose has had no opportunity to put their skills to use. They would be overjoyed for your patronage.

Speaking with Marn Ose

Marn Ose: One thousand one hundred and eighty-two, one thousand one hundred and eighty-three, one thousand one hundred and eighty-four... Wait, did I already count that leaf? 
Marn Ose: Uwaaaaaah! Who─ What─ Where─ Wait, you're a...a mortal!? Huzzah! Huzzah!
Marn Ose: Well met! Yes, very well met indeed! Have you old and tired arms and armor that are threatening to fall apart at critical junctures in battle? 
Marn Ose: If you answered yes, you've come to the right Nu Mou! I will restore your equipment to pristine condition for a payment of a pair of moss fungus legs! 
Marn Ose: Moss fungi roam just outside the cave. Please, please, please give their legs─and your patronage─to me!
(Optional)
Marn Ose: Have you obtained the moss fungus legs? Bring them to me, and I will restore your equipment to pristine condition!

Delivering the moss fungus legs to Marn Ose (Cutscene)

Marn Ose: Ah, you are returned! And with the moss fungus legs, I hope? 
Marn Ose: They are tools of my trade, lest you wonder, used to polish metal and leather alike to a lustrous sheen. Now that I have work again, I must replenish my stores!

< How many moss fungus legs will you give? > 
< One. >
< Two. >
< Three. >

< One. >
Marn Ose: One? But...I asked for two... 
Marn Ose: Grrr! No, no, NO! This wasn't the agreement! 
Marn Ose: You think my work cheap? Well then, you will have cheap! Oh yes, I'll make a fine mess of everything you're wearing! Rip it to shreds! 
Marn Ose: ...Hm? Wait, there are two legs here. <sigh> You mustn't tease us faeries so. In my agitation, I could've done much worse than simply snap at you.

< Two. >
Marn Ose: Huzzah! Two moss fungus legs as befits the work! Ahhh, to have neither more nor less expected of us than what we can provide─there is no greater joy!

< Three. >
Marn Ose: Three? But...I asked for two... 
Marn Ose: Grrr! No, no, NOOO! This wasn't the agreement! 
Marn Ose: You doubt that I'll fulfill the work for two moss fungus legs, so you tempt me with another? May as well call me a grasping mutt and spit in my eye! 
Marn Ose: Well, if you think me a bad Nu Mou, then a bad Nu Mou I will be! Oh yes, I'll make a fine mess of everything you're wearing! Rip it to shreds! 
Marn Ose: ...Hm? Wait, there are two legs here. <sigh> You mustn't tease us faeries so. In my agitation, I could've done much worse than simply snap at you.

(All)
Marn Ose: You see, for there to be honor in a task, we must receive precisely what it is worth. Too little means you belittle our ability, too much means you question our integrity. 
Marn Ose: You've given me fitting payment, so my services are at your disposal. I shall begin by inspecting your equipment.
Marn Ose: Hmmm, I see, I see...
Marn Ose: Though I must ask for a small fee for the materials, I'm pleased to say that all your arms and armor may be restored. If you mean to change them in the near future, however, there's no need to hurry. 
Marn Ose: My first repair is complimentary─here's the coin which you may pay me with when you desire to have work done. Many thanks for your patronage!

System: Marn Ose's shop is open for business! 

Marn Ose: Oh, and if you mean to offer your patronage to another, may I suggest Ys Gyuf yonder? 
Marn Ose: Judging from your equipment, 'tis plain you're no stranger to battle. I believe Ys Gyuf will have something to offer you!
