The Bounty Hunt

If you're here to see the dance, wait until the performance... Oooooh. Are you here about the rumor?

Oy vey! How could the dance of the amazing シリン attract so few people? Ah well, so it goes. I'll tell you about the rumor then. A bounty has put on デウ.

What? Who is デウ? Are you serious? He's only the biggest threat in the desert, the ruler of all the Cactus, the most powerful monster in all the Burning Road! You should learn more about アリアント from Byron, honestly!

Anyway, a bounty has been put on デウ. And the reward is quite generous. You've know about アリアント's underground organization, the Sand Bandits, right? That's where the rumor started.

You want to hear more? If you want details, find out on your own. Maybe you should look for the leader of the Sand Bandits or something.

Huh? Then why are you here? Oooh, are you another fan of the amazing シリン?

Oh, [名前] is that you? What is it...? Huh? A bounty...? Oh, you're talking about a bounty for デウ. That means you heard the rumor from シリン? It's true. The Sand Bandits have put a bounty on デウ.

デウ is a dangerous monster out to destroy the desert. A group of merchants traveling the Burning Road has been attacked a number of times, but the sultan and the queen couldn't care less. Hence, the Sand Bandits took matters into our own hands.

But this is too much for the Sand Bandits to take care of on our own, which is why we have put a bounty on the monster... Why, you ask? Well...

デウis an ancient ローヤルカツス that evolved into a monster. He's very smart. He can even use magic! That explains why some people worship him as the guardian of the desert. It sounds foolish, I know, but a good number of people actually believe that.

We can't just go out and defeat デウ, as that will turn many people against the Sand Bandits. We must first convince the people... Will you take on this task?

The spokesman for the people who believe デウ is the guardian of the desert is ムハマード. He is as stiff and stubborn as リチウム. Convincing that old man will be our first battle, before we even hunt the monster.

Convincing him won't be easy. You might have to give him a Lidium as a gift before you can get him to listen... Often, when you talk to someone that stubborn, it helps to beat around the bush and change the subject to get him where you want him, then put your foot down and convince him when the time is right.

It seems you have not connected with the Sand Bandits yet. The Sand Bandits are an underground organization. If you want to talk to them, only thing you can do is to become one of them.
