Dialogue
Arester: Greetings, <Character>! Welcome to Mootopolis.
Ascended ChickenCow
Arester: So you wish to take our power on as your own?
Arester: There are several things you must do before you can earn that privilege.
Arester: However...I may be persuaded to show you immediately for a price.
Arester: I am aware of a currency that you use on the ground. I believe they are called Dragon Coins?
Arester: You may choose to undergo my trials and purchase the right for gold or share some of these odd coins with me instead.
Arester: Which will it be, <Character>?
- Earn It
Arester: Are you positive? You will not be able to change your mind after we begin.
- I am!
Arester: An honorable choice indeed. Are you ready to begin?
- Nevermind!
- Purchase It - opens Ascendant CC DC shop.
After selecting 'I am!':
Arester: To begin your training I require an offering.
Arester: Zeuster created something very odd and I wish to understand it if I can.
Arester: Bacon.
Arester: It has come to my attention that a man in the town you call Falconreach has found a piece that's beyond all others.
Arester: It is cooked to perfection and something that I very much wish to sample.
Arester: If you can find this man who loves cheese more than anything else bring me back this Perfect Bacon Slice.
Arester: I will continue your training once you do.
- Give him the BACON! - removes The Perfect Slice of Bacon from Inventory.
Arester: Ah, excellent. Thank you, <Character>. I'll sample this later. For now do you wish to continue your training?
- I can't do it...
Arester: It takes one with an honest heart to admit <he/she/they> cannot accomplish something.
Arester: You may purchase the armor instead, if you wish to.
Arester: If you wish to retry the challenge later when you grow more powerful, you may.
- Purchase It - opens Ascendant CC DC shop.
After giving The Perfect Slice of Bacon:
Arester: One of our greatest heroes was the mighty Moocluckles.
Arester: He was the first to take on human form and conquered many great challenges even in that original weakened form.
Arester: Any who wish to take our power for their own must complete the Challenge of Moocluckles.
Arester: Your people have already discovered and use something akin to that original form he took.
Arester: You must now take on that form and complete the challenges to prove yourself worthy.
Arester: Beware though, it will not be easy as you will face creatures of tremendous power.
Arester: If you have the courage of Moocluckles then I will lead you to where the challenges begin.
Arester: Take up the armor and let us depart!
After completing The Challenge of Moocluckles:
Arester: You have done well, <Character>. You are nearly done.
Arester: The final act you must complete is to give up the vestments of the lesser Chickencows.
Arester: You must give me one of each of the armors known as the ChickenCow Lord and the Evolved ChickenCow Lord.
Arester: Your people have several versions but I only require one of each.
Arester: Bring them to me and you will have earned the power of the Ascended.
- Very Well! - continues Ascended ChickenCow training.
After selecting 'Very Well!':
Arester: Present the ChickenCow Armor. You will not keep it once you offer it up.
- Offer up the ChickenCow Lord! - removes ChickenCow Armor from Inventory.
- I can't do it... - see above dialogue.
After offering the ChickenCow Armor:
Arester: Present the Evolved ChickenCow Armor. You will not keep it once you offer it up.
- Offer up the Evolved ChickenCow Lord! - removes Evolved ChickenCow Armor from Inventory.
- I can't do it... - see above dialogue.
After offering both the ChickenCow Armor and Evolved ChickenCow Armor:
Arester: You have proven yourself worthy, <Character>! You may now learn the powers of the Ascended!
Items! - opens Ascendant CC shop.
DC Items! - opens Ascendant CC DC shop.
The Challenge
Arester: So you wish to attempt the challenge again? Very well, don the armor and we shall depart.
Heal & potions - fully replenishes HP, MP, and potions.
Talk
Arester: Ask your questions, <Character>.
- Arena?
Arester: Ah yes, the Cowiseum. Many great heroes have been forged within its walls.
Arester: You are not yet ready to participate in any contests there, but many great heroes have over the past few hundred years.
Arester: You may one day be worthy enough to participate, but for now just know that we will continue to watch your deeds.
- Mootopolis?
Arester: We decided to build Mootopolis above the ground and between clouds because we are almost untouchable here.
Arester: We've heard rumors of the organization known as the Rose. We'd prefer not to have them attempt to "chain" us, as some have described.
Arester: You, however, are free to explore. We know of your actions against the Rose and how much you value freedom.
- Your appearance...
Arester: Here in Mootopolis we decided to take on humanoid forms.
Arester: We felt that these forms would allow others to interact with us in an easier way.
Arester: This form is quite interesting. We're able to learn quite a bit more from your kind than in our normal form.
- Zeuster?
Arester: Yes, Zeuster is here. However, he's secluded himself for some reason.
Arester: Ah, yes...that. It should have been a monument to myself, but Zeuster holds more influence than I.
Arester: You may be able to speak to him eventually but for now you'll need to wait.
