You know, Newcomer, you've really worked hard despite being so new. You've helped me a lot, and I really appreciate it...As a token of thanks, I prepared a small gift for you. Will you accept it?

Reply to “Yes”

Hahaha... Good, then I want you to go to Lab - Area B-1. On top of the desk lay some pills that I have recently concocted, so take it... Oh, and since I am eager to see the effects of it, I want you to take it, and then come back to me. You must take the pills first, and then come back.

Did you just say no? ...I can't believe you declined my well-intentioned present. I, Russellon, am very hurt by this...

...You must not want to take the pill yet. Do you not trust me, Russellon? As someone who's been in Alcadno longer than you, I thought I was being nothing but a good mentor to you...

(Go to Lab - Area B-1 and consume the medicine on Russellon's Desk.)
