Looking for Nonexistent Traces

McCulley

Objective
You arrived on Netnume Island. Batermann NPC Knowledge heard about the ancient civilization and bought the island for a cheap price, but he never found anything that's of worth. He says he bought the island as if he was bewitched by something. It reminded you of what happened to Sion on Daton Island. Go to Oben Island, which also seems to be connected to the ancient civilization.
Look around Oben Island;
Dialogue
Batermann Dialogue
Do you have any news for me? Anything would be great.
I've been scammed... I know, I'm a fool.
Please help me out, I'll make sure to repay you.
A story about the ancient civilization that used to be here tempted me to buy this island...
Now I understand why the island was so cheap. There's nothing here!
All that's left are rocks and the smell of sea salt.
I really don't want to believe that this is happening to me.
I think I was cursed by the ancients...
I lost everything when I purchased this island,
and I lost my precious time as well. I cannot return.
There has to be something here worthwhile, and I have to find it.
Why did I go to that meeting that day?
Why did I purchase this island so impulsively?
I've always been so careful with everything...
I bought this island as if I was bewitched by something.
I went to Oben Island and Daton Island just in case
but it was pointless...
Batermann Dialogue (Alt)
Why didn't I think that the meeting was suspicious?
It was bait and I was the fish that got caught in a net...
