Maria Falls Ill
Anna: Oh, [playername]. Maria is laid up with a cold. Why don't you go visit her for a while? Good her room is over there.

(the player is taken to Maria's room)

Maria: What? Visiting me? Thank you very much.

(looking around the room)

Maria:Those are my favorite books.

Lots of cute small things.

Maria:Oh... That's an unfinished children's story... I'm embarrassed. So please don't read it.

(leaving)

Maria: Thank you very much for today.

Fireflies
Maria: If you're not busy, let's go up the mountain. There's a wonderful sight there. Good. Let's go.

[In the mountains]

Maria: Shhhhhh .... quietly.....

[at the Goddess Spring]

Maria: Look. Isn't it beautiful? Fireflies need really clean water...... They can't live in in dirty water. I hope they stay living here forever... We must try to keep the water clean.

Sprained ankle
Maria: Ouch... I seem to have twisted my ankle.

>Carry her.

Maria: Oh, I... I, I'm OK. I......

>Get help.

Maria: T.. Thank you.

Harris: No, I'm OK.

Dream realization
Maria: Hello. Please feel free to read here.

... An old children's book......?

Maria: Oh, excuse me, but that's not from the library.... it's my book. Oh... was that you who gave me the book...?

>Yes

Maria: ... I thought it might be you... but I couldn't ask... Thank you very much. I was very happy.

(outside)

Maria: Well, see you later... Please come again.

>I don't know

Maria: ... I'm sorry. It's a childhood memory. I can't remember the face... though I can remember events around that time. It's been more than 10 years, so even if I were to see him now, I wouldn't notice. But it's my treasure.

Karen: Hurry! You're so slow!

Maria: There you go, I got it off.

Karen: Ha, ha.

Maria: This little guy looks kind of like you, Karen.

Karen: Who are you calling a grasshopper!?

Maria: Oops, sorry!

(Karen leaves in a huff)

Maria: I meant to say that your hair... is like these cool looking antennas... It was supposed to be a compliment.

Cooking fish is delish
Maria: Wow, Elli. You're good at cooking fish...

Elli: Well, we're taking a life and eating it. The least I can do is to make a good meal of it.

Maria: Maybe I'll practice cooking fish too...

Elli: Yes, I'll teach you sometime. Here you go... it's ready.

Maria: Thank you.

Watermelons
Ann: Maria! What are you doing!

Maria: Well... It seemed he'd have problems if he couldn't sell this, so...

Ann: You got pressured again, huh? I keep on telling you to just say no!

Ann: What are we going to do with all of this?

(You approach and talk to either Ann or Maria)

Ann: Don't you want a watermelon? 300G each!

Ann: Thank you! Here, Maria. 600G.

Maria: What?

Ann: This part is for me. I'll have it for dessert tonight. See you!

Maria, Harris, and the Salesman
Sammy: If you drink this "Lively Tea" everyday, you will become very healthy! And it has cosmetic effects, too. Why don't you try it. 5000G for one month!

Maria: No, I..., I...

Sammy: It's also good for dieting! And I'll add in this high-grade soap! Come on now.

Maria: ...B, but, I can't buy such expensive things.

Sammy: No, no. If you think about the cost per day, it's not expensive. You can be beautiful for just a little money.

Maria: B, b, but...

Harris: Hey! What are you doing here!?

Sammy: What? I'm just a salesman.

Harris: I heard a rumor about a salesman selling strange things. It's you, isn't it?!

Sammy: No, no. I'm just trying to help this lady become beautiful.

Harris: What?! Maria is already beautiful! She doesn't need that junk! Get out of here!

(Sammy walks off)

Sammy: Poooh. I thought she was an easy dupe...

Maria: Th... th... thank you very much... I have a hard time saying no... I should change, but... ...

Harris: No, Ms. Maria, you don't have to change! Well, I, I'll be going back to work.
