False Rumors

Hello, Ascetic. Please, come here for a second. These are... hup! These are the books Alchemist Van asked me for.
What? Why am I giving these books to you? Haha, these aren't safe left here alone.
I heard you were close to Van, so could you pass on these <HFFFA7272>Old Alchemy Tomes<HFFFFFFFF>? Huh? You're not close? That's strange. Everyone thinks you two are friends.
Hehe, still, it wouldn't hurt if you lent me a hand. Van is the younger sibling of Elder Spuknik, so I suggest meeting her anyway. <HFFFA7272>Alchemist Van<HFFFFFFFF> is in <HFFFA7272>Southwest Cien<HFFFFFFFF>.
May the Great Mightthesis guide you....

Well, this is just between you and me, but Van has a fussy character for a DragonScion.
I suggest you prepare yourself before seeing her.

... Hmm? Huh? Who are you? How dare you disturb me!
If you're disturbing my work for something trivial, you'll pay for it!
