Mertaire: Hey, who do you think you are!? You don't like my music? I'm just a loser who can't write and can't play! Mertaire: Love... Romance... It's all fake! Cursed women are like measles! Mertaire: Ugh... Malliebell... This time she's left me forever... Bki Tbujhja: Say, have you seen the song rrrunes in Buburimu?

Bki Tbujhja: No matter how much the worllld changes, people are still the same. Oh, how I long to be loved like that... Bki Tbujhja: Well, anyway... I bet those bitter lyrics would rrreally cheer up the broken-hearted.	This article is missing a video of the battle, mission, or quest. You can help by adding it.

Lewenhart: Oh, it's a rare day I see anybody around here. Lewenhart: Oh, forgive me... I am a simple minstrel. I travel from one tavern to another, caring little whence my daily bread may come. Lewenhart: Every time I walk this road, I make a point of visiting this place. And it's good to see a kindred spirit here. Lewenhart: The lyrics here ahve an endless charm, don't they? The story of two lovers torn apart, each hearing the crashing of waves from opposite shores... Lewenhart: This is how emotions live on, my friend. Even those of broken dreams and failed romances... Lewenhart: Our duty as minstrels is to take these shattered desires, give them shape, and pass them to others. Lewenhart: I know that dreams and emotions are often difficult to grasp. Lewenhart: But sometimes, in a moment of brilliance, our songs can stir even the loneliest heart. Lewenhart: My friend, moments like that are what keep us minstrels singing. Lewenhart: Can you not feel the powerful emotions of the narrator here, who could not help but put these feelings to verse? Lewenhart: Even those who forgot how to sing through the toils of life should be moved, made to sing by the lyrics herein. Lewenhart: Oh, it seems I've rambles quite a bit. My words fall to riddles whenever I'm here, I'm afraid. Lewenhart: Well, I shan't keep you any longer. I hope we may meet again i the bustle of a warm tavern. Farewell!
