 _self_say Yes M'boy! This hike was just what I needed! The view is spectacular, don't you agree? 
 _partner_say Hi! Yes, your majesty - this is my favorite place to play and think! 
 _self_say I can certainly see why. Don't your parents ever come with you, to make sure you don't come to any sort of injury? 
 _partner_say They come sometimes, but today I sneaked out. I think they'll be mad that I lost my shoe. Maybe we can use this crystal ball to help me find it.  
 _partner_act give a crystal ball to the king 
 _self_emote ponder 
 _self_say Now where did you find such an item? A crystal ball isn't just something one leaves lying around/ 
 _partner_say I found it on my way up. A little man wearing funny clothes was carrying it I tried to talk to him, but he ran away and dropped it. I tried to catch him to return it and that's when I dropped my shoe.  
 _partner_emote blush 
 _self_emote wink 
 _self_say A little funny man? Dear child, are you telling me the Gnomes have returned to the hillside? 
 _partner_say Is that what he was? He sure looked grumpy. Are gnomes scary? 
 _self_say No, I don't believe "grumpy" is quite the right word. Gnomes tend to keep to themselves.  
 _partner_say If I use my rope to build a swing, do you think he might come back to play? I can share my snack with him! 
 _partner_act give treat to the king 
 _self_emote ponder 
 _self_say I will have to do some studying in the Royal Library once I've returned to the castle. To think that the innocence of a child could bring out the gnomes... 
 _partner_say Does anyone else live up on this hill? It' 
 _self_say Not for some time, and certainly not since I've ruled. I wonder if this is a sign of things to come.
