Dialogue

NPC

Hey, what's up, mate? I've been picking up this signal from a lightbearer around here, but I can't seem to find him!

NPC

ERROR YOUR END IS NEAR Whoa, sorry about that glitch! No worries!

NPC

My circuits are, like, acting up, but I've got to get this mission done, you know what I mean?

NPC

I'll get that data to Happy right now!

NPC

So, want to team up and, like, save the day? Find some Hyenas and be on the lookout for any that have a weird glow!

NPC

Awesome, mate! Let's get this show on the road!

NPC

Together we'll, ERROR OBLITERATE EVERYTHING haha, just kidding! Let's go!

NPC

All right then, maybe next time! ERROR YOU CANNOT ESCAPE Haha, ignore that! Catch you later!

NPC

Not feeling it? That's cool, mate! ERROR I SHALL REND THE EARTH ASUNDER Whoopsies! Must be my circuits!

NPC

Aww, that's a total downer, mate! ERROR YOUR DOOM APPROACHES Haha, just a glitch! No worries!

NPC

Hey, mate! You're back! Did you, like, completely nab that beacon?

NPC

Oh, the Lightbearer was dead?

NPC

Brilliant, mate! Well, cheers for the beacon! You're, like, an absolute legend!

NPC

Analysing... ERROR THE LIGHTBEARER'S SOUL WILL BE MINE Haha, whoa, glitch alert! All good!

NPC

Total downer about the lightbearer, but you did brilliantly out there!

NPC

ERROR PREPARE FOR DESTRUCTION Haha, just glitching out! So, mission accomplished?

NPC

I'm sure the Lightbearer is definitely alive, and wasn't, like, eaten by a Hyena or something. It'd be weird if the beacon was in a hyena, wouldn't it?
