Young Daevas never believe how much Sanctum has changed.

When I first came here, everyone was starving and poor. Look at the city now, with its splendid buildings and fancy clothes--I'd scarcely recognize it!

It was tough in those days, but we survived. You made do with what you had, even if the entire troop had to share a pot of Sparkie porridge.

I'm here to create a new drink never before seen in Atreia.

I love collecting fruits and herbs, and trying new combinations--I'm rather famous for it, actually. Every drink has different effects on those who drink it, you know.

I consider it both an art and a science, and myself both a scientist and an artist.

Yes, but I wonder if I've lost perspective. For all I know, I might be the only person who likes my new drink, and all my work would be for nothing.

I'd much rather create something a lot of different kinds of people will like, but that's going to require some research.

Would you visit some people I have in mind, and ask them what they like in a drink? Their opinions would inform my work nicely.

Thank you so much. First, I'd like you to ask Tellarius. He's the son of my oldest friend, and I trust his judgment.

Next I'd like the opinion of Supervisor Numonerk. I think I should take a Shugo's taste into account--I'm inventing a drink for everyone.

Finally, meet up with Myrtil. A Daeva of Art should have a keen sense of taste.

Whyever not? It's not exactly an odious task, talking to a few people.

That's fine, though. I'll find someone else to help me.

Zero? I don't remember anyone named Zero.

Thank him for me anyway. I appreciate the gesture.

Drinks? I live in a desert--I'm always thirsty! Days like this one, any drink would be my favorite.

Water's scarce around here. We have to ration what drinks we have, so we're always dreaming of cool drinks.

What I'd really love, though, would be a drink to make me forget this heat--even for a little while.

Shugo taste delicate and complicated. Hard to express in a word, nyerk.

And all different Shugos like all different drinks, yes? Some like sweet fruit juicy drinks with little umbrellas--some like hard cider, some even like barley beer. Not me, but some.

Zero should forget about trying to satisfy every Shugo, akakakakak!

Numonerk likes drinks with lots of little bubbles. Tickles nose! Makes tail hairs stand on end!

Make it sparkling, Daeva, and don't forget to bring me one, akakak!

I'm glad you're here. I needed a break.

I'm strangely uninspired, and that troubles me. I suppose an artist can't be inspired all the time, but still....

I have a commission to finish, and I just don't feel like painting.

I wish I had a drink to inspire me. That would be my favorite drink today.

I'd take a few sips, get all inspired, and finish this blasted commission. What a wonderful thought.

I love art, but sometimes I wish I'd become a Guardian. Life would be so much simpler, you know?

What happened?

Did you ask people what they wanted to drink?

Tell me everything!

Ah, I see it now...the taste everyone's looking for! I know just the ingredients now. Wait here...keep waiting.

Just a few moments more....

All right, taste this. Bubbly, cool on the tongue and delicate as snow. I'm going to call it "Snow Essence!"

1. Talk with Tellarius.

2. Talk with Supervisor Numonerk.

3. Talk with Myrtil.

4. Talk with Zero.

Zero wanted to create a new drink and asked you to talk to people and discover what they wanted in a drink.

Zero wanted to create a new drink and asked you to talk to people and discover what they wanted in a drink.

You traveled all over Elysea to visit Tellarius, Numonerk, and Myrtil to listen to their opinions.

Zero was inspired by what you told him and created a drink called Snow Essence.
