There's gotta be a catch. We probably just can't eat a lot of cake and steak. But it can't be that bad, right? Otherwise we're not gonna get what we want.

I wished for a monster to be destroyed. She was tryin' to take the bodies of my friends, and was terrorizin' our families for generations. I wasn't tough enough to stop her own my own.
. . . No. No, neither. Your words were kind, but in truth - the story I told you of what is in the Tomb is one I was taught by my family, but my own feelings towards it are more complicated. I'm not sure I believe what's inside is actually my enemy.
But it's true that I must fight a monster, and I will likely die if I don't learn the means to survive in time.
What is the monster doin' to you? But I think... I know what yer feelin'. All my life my family told me that Ninetails is our protector and we had to bring her back. But the truth was that she was a monster that killed all our ancestors.
... Do ya think the thing in the Tomb is actually good?
I'm not sure what she is. But I've never cared about fighting her.
[On the other hand. . . ]
The monster is a revenant beast, a powerful and ancient spirit. I have been unable to master the technique that would let me survive the encounter, so I'll likely be destroyed when it finds me.

I don't really know what we're meant to take their directions to mean. Do whatever you feel can't be all there is to it.

[Hmm. She sort of does think it will be bad.]
Would it bother you if I asked what it is you want to earn?

[ A powerful and ancient spirit... it really does sound like they're up against similar foes. ]
