Events

Vial

Fall Wednesday - 1900

When exiting the Blacksmith's at night (With Lazarus and Ken inside), Kain is startled by the character and runs off, dropping a vial in the process. If the player shows this to Kain, he denies ever having seen it and Ken and Lazarus wonder what it could have contained.

The vial can be shown to the doctor who confirms that it contains poison. After this, the player can show the vial to Ken in order to trigger the rest of the event.

Ken, the player, and Lazarus confront Kain and he confesses. He says that he had to expand, as Joshua was looking to get a different carpenter from the city. Though Ken wants to throw him in jail, they instead make a deal where Ken takes over the carpenter as well.

After Kain leaves, they thank the player. They recieve two octotinium and the vial.

NOTE: You can get a different outcome of the vial event if you show it to first to the Doctor, and then Kain. Kain will offer you a couple thousand gold to never mention this event again.

Kain
File:.png	Huh? I...I've never seen this before! It's just some lil' bottle right? Nothing weird here!

Ken, Lazarus
File:.png	What's that?
File:.png	Dropped by Kain, you say? Well, what did it contain?

Doctor
File:.png	Eh? What's that?
File:.png	Hmmm...you want me to take a look at it?
File:.png	Alright. Give me a second.
File:.png	This vial contains traces of cadmium. It's a heavy metal, and it's extremely toxic to humans.
File:.png	I wonder where you found such a thing around here and why.
File:.png	Hm. You youngsters certainly pass your time in weird ways.

After the doctor
File:.png	What's that?
File:.png	...
File:.png	...Oh my. That bastard! We should have a talk with Kain and you, ____, should be present too!

Dialogue

Intro
	Hi! I'm Ken. Nice to meet you!
	I work at my grandfather's as an assistant. Well, actually, he does all the smithing. I do all the mining.
	If you need anything, drop by any time!

Season

SpringGen
	Hi %playername! How's work going?

SummerGen
	Hi %playername! Found anything interesting in the mines?

FallGen
	Grandpa says I'll have to take over the business sooner or later. But I don't feel ready. I don't think I ever will.

WinterGen
	When I was a kid, I wanted to have an office job in the city. But now, every time I visit the city, I get depressed. How people can live in such chaos?

Gift

Hate
	Nope. Not cool at all.

Neutral
	Hey thanks!

Like
	Is this for me? I like this very much, you know.

Love
	Whoah! This is amazing! Thank you so much!

Locations

Mines
	I like mining. Extracting ores from the earth, it feels like a treasure hunt.
	I wouldn't venture too deep into the mines, though. It can be quite dangerous.

SmallFarm
	I like Regina and Garry. They struggle with what they have, but they don't give up.

Church
	I like listening to father Renesco's preaching. It fills my heart with hope.

Diner
	A good meal is all it takes for a day full of energy!

TSq
	The town square is very old. Probably hasn't changed since, well, forever.

Relationship

Rom1
	%playername...so good to see you...

Rom2
	%playername...I can't take my eyes off you...

WRingNo
	Err...no?

WRingNoHouse
	I love you, there's no doubt about that. But your house is too small for us right now.

WRingYes
	!!!
	Yes! I want to marry you! Gosh, this is so exciting!
	I love you! I can't wait until next Sunday!

Plot

MyrPhtSh
	That's...oh no. This isn't good. Do others know?

MayorDead
	What happened with the Mayor affects us all. What else is going on that we don't know about?

DnAftr
	Denny was a good guy. I don't know what took over him.

StoneShown
	Huh? Where did you find it? Doesn't look like anything I've seen in the mines.

AbuseAftermath0
	So Matilda left Lee. I wonder what had been going on between those two all this time.

AbuseAftermath1
	So Lee left Matilda and the town, all of a sudden...people can be so impulsive.

Alice
	Woah, %playername, what happened to Alice was brutal...

Bday1
	Hello %playername! Happy birthday! I, um, brought you something.
	I hope you like it! See you later!

Friend1
	Grandpa and the woodman have been arguing a lot lately. Kain pressures him a lot to sell the forge to him, now that grandpa's health has been declining.
	Grandpa doesn't want to, but if he gets worse he may have no choice. Medical expenses in the city are high. It's a bad situation, really.

Friend2
	Hey %playername! Let me tell you a thing or two about mining! I'm sure it will come in handy!

Friend3
	You know, they say that, long ago, smugglers used to operate in the area. They were hauling all sorts of goods along the river.
	But authorities caught wind of it, and a fight ensued in the river. Many barges went down, along with all that smuggler treasure.
	Some time ago, Grandpa designed a diving suit, but never got around to build it. It's only an old tale, after all.
	The river banks are quite rocky, so a boat is required for diving. I will give you the schematics. Are you up for a little adventuring?
