Hello there!
May I take your order?
What can I get for you?
Well, we are known for our beer.
...
Huh? You don't want anything?
What brings you to our town, then?
You aren't another would-be prospector following the rumors of the gold rush, are you?
If so, you'd better go home now. There's no gold to be found here anymore.
~
Everyone in town knows me, but I can tell that you haven't even heard of me before.
Would you mind looking me up in Character Info before I introduce myself?

Hohoho.
Now you know who I am?
I am Natalie, the hottest bartender in this town.
I'll let you off easy today, but be sure to say hi next time you visit. I'll hook you up with some good food and beer.

Whenever you get thirsty for beer, pay me a visit.

It's nice to be popular, but it's also exhausting. I hate having to deal with guys hitting on me everyday.
When those Sunset Desperadoes stare at me in their creepy way, it gives me the jitters. I hate it! It feels as if bugs are crawling all over my body.
What? You want me to tell them that I hate it?
No way!
My first priority as a bartender is to please my customers. If I let them know how I feel, then they might stop coming.
Or even worse, if they were to lose their temper with me, they might start a fight. I'd probably get fired...
~
I don't know why they look at me like that.
I have no idea what they are up to...
Can you please gather [Item Info]on the Sunset Desperados so that I may find out what they're thinking?

Thank you so much for your hard work.
After looking over this information, I realize that they're nothing special.
I should punish them for what they put me through.
Ah, there's this guy named James who bugs me a little, but he's not such a bad guy. No need to punish him.

Whenever you get thirsty for beer, pay me a visit.

...
What? Who is James?
Hoho. He's the guy near this bar. He's not as cool or brave as you, but he's a bit of a braggart. There's not really anything he's particularly good at.
He claims to be a Legendary Gunslinger, but I'm not sure if he's ever even shot a gun before.
~
Oh! I don't know what he's been up to, but he's been wandering around the store for several days.
I'm afraid a bad rumor might spread if he keeps hanging around there.
If you have time, can you meet James the Pretender and find out what he's up to?

Oh my. You are back so soon.
Thank you.

Whenever you get thirsty for beer, pay me a visit.

So what is it?
Why is James wandering around here?
What? He intends to get rid of all the outlaws in town?
He's tallking nonsense.
He thinks he's a hero or something.
Everyone knows he is a pretender. Gosh.
I wish he would come to his senses and get a job.
Huh? Am I interested in him?
No way! For you to actually think that was possible...
I have no interest whatsoever.
I don't have the time to be interested in that layabout.
What I'm saying is...
It doesn't make any sense...
...
...
~
Let's talk about something else. I've lost something very important to me. Can you find it for me?
Megatheriums attaked the town earlier and took the only book in the bar. Oh, it's so exasperating!
I'm certain it's a plot created by those who owe money to the bar. Otherwise, why would Megatheriums come to town and take only the book away?
Please kill those [Agile Megatheriums] and [Lazy Megatheriums] and find the Pages from Natalie's Book.

Ah! You brought back the book I had lost. Thank you so much.
It's a little more ragged than before, but I think I can still manage to read it.

Whenever you get thirsty for beer, pay me a visit.

My family fell into a deep debt after my mother passed away.
My father left for Detroit to make money to pay the debt off, and I came all the way here.
It's already been over 10 years.
What could my father be doing now... I wonder if he's in good health...
~
If you have a chance to go to Detroit, can you find out if my father is still there?
You don't know where Detroit is, do you?
Then take a look in Field Info.

TIP: Field Info - Silent Detroit - Detroit City

Yes, that's the place.
However, I don't have the right to tell you to go there for me.

Whenever you get thirsty for beer, pay me a visit.

I'm so sorry.
I guess I've asked you too many favors.
I just kept asking for more and more without thinking because you looked so familiar. You were so comfortable and warm toward me, like a sibling. Please understand.
...
I knew you would. Hoho.
Oh my, you're really sweating.
It's really hot here, huh?
It's hot because we're surrounded by a vast desert.
So cold beer is really popular around here. Hehe.
~
All those errands must've been hard work. How about an ice-cold beer?
Don't say no. Buttom's up!
Hohoho.

Wow, you drink really well.
How is it? Isn't it refreshing?
The best beer is, of course, a cold one.

Whenever you get thirsty for beer, pay me a visit.

I took a look at the book a while ago, and the Wasteland Desperados and Wanted Men were among those who didn't pay their tab.
They took off without paying not too long ago, and I believe they do that sort of thing all the time.
~
You don't know how expensive that beer is...
I've heard rumors that their cheap guns were stolen as well. Nobody's ever taught those villains a lesson.
I can't take it any longer.
Would you go and take the Worn Hats away from the Wasteland Desperados and Wanted Men?

Hoho, thanks.
I won't give these hats back until they pay me back what they owe.

Whenever you get thirsty for beer, pay me a visit.

Oh, by the way, while you were out gathering worn-out hats, James came by.
He said he was going to participate in a duel. I have no idea why men love guns so much.
Why do they solve their problems with violence when they could just talk everything out?
We used to solve everything peacefully through conversation.
However, ever since guns showed up here, everyone tries to solve everything by dueling.
~
I can't either stop the fighting or get rid of the guns. It's so frustrating.
I wish you could destroy these horrible guns right before of my eyes.
Okay, can you destroy an [Amon's Rifle]?

Good work.
I feel a little better now.

Whenever you get thirsty for beer, pay me a visit.

Moreover, a lot of strange things have been occurring around town since the coal mine was developed.
Because a lot of criminals were attracted here by the rumors of gold, the miners don't even want to come out of the coal mine anymore.
So business has suffered, and I had to find a way to make money.
~
I went inside the coal mine to sell beer one time, but nobody even looked at me.
I tried to sway them into having a drink by offering free side dishes, but they began to threaten me all of a sudden.
I had no choice but to flee from there.
Those disgusting Novice Miners... Can you go and punish those bad miners for me?
HINT: You can find the Novice Miners at the Coal Mine Base Camp.

You did a great job.
Didn't the way the miners looked at you seem a little weird?

Whenever you get thirsty for beer, pay me a visit.

Oh, have you heard the news?
I don't know if it was through skill or just dumb luck, but I hear James won the duel!
I thought he was just a pretender, but I guess he's not all talk after all.
Since he is pretty skilled, rich, and not too bad-looking, maybe I should think about going out with him?
...
He gave me this expensive diamond as a present, and then just disappeared without a word. It was pretty cool...
Oh, no. I can't let him win me over so easily...
I have to watch him a little more to be sure.
~
Since there are so many outlaws in this town, I should keep my diamond safe in the bank.
[The criminals here would steal the nose off your face if they could], so you should not carry a lot of cash around with you. You might consider depositing at least 1 miilion gold in the bank.

You're back.
You came a lot later than I expected. I suppose you had a lot of money to deposit. Hoho.

Whenever you get thirsty for beer, pay me a visit.

While you were at the bank, I met the miner Wild Blue who used to work in the coal mine.
I thought I could learn a few things about the mine from him, but he said something strange.
He said that the evil head miners wander around to oversee the other miners.
~
Even if they did something terrible to me, don't you feel pity for them?
Maybe they ignored the beer I brought because of the head miners. They must have wanted it so much.
Frankly, it's all the head miners' fault.
Would you please punish the despicable Head Miners for abusing the poor miners and bring me their Rusty Hoes as evidence?

Good job.
I hope the miners will visit me now.
I don't understand why they are working so hard in a mine with no gold.

Whenever you get thirsty for beer, pay me a visit.

Sorry if I seem too busy right now.
I was just trying to make a new book from the pages that you retrieved from the Megatheriums.
To tell the truth, the old one was so outdated that I was going to make a new one anyway, but I didn't have the necessary materials.
One of the customers here told me about this high-quality paper from China.
~
Do you think you can bring me 20 sheets of Chinese Paper?
It'd be so nice to make a book with that paper.

TIP: You can get Chinese Paper through Stationary or at the Market.

Thank you so much.
These papers have such fine quality...
I will use them well.
Now that I think about it, the man who told me about the Chinese Paper looks strangely like you... Hoho.

Whenever you get thirsty for beer, pay me a visit.

Jeez, that James.
I don't know how he found out, but it looks like he punished the bartenders who were giving me a hard time.
I don't know how he mustered up the courage to do this, but I guess I have to acknowledge him this one time.
If we had more courageous townfolk like James, this town wouldn't be so full of criminals.
This town wasn't always rife with crime.
The criminals started showing up after the coal mine opened.
I think strange things started happening around that time, too.
~
I feel we'd better shut down the mine, not only for the good of the bar, but for the peace of the town.
However, we can't just go in and close the mine down, so we'd better stop their work first.
I don't understand why they continue to work there when there's no gold...
I heard that the Outdated Mining Robots mine for ore day and night. Can you destroy some?

Thank you very much.
But where did those outdated mining robots come from?
We don't have any factories around here that manufacture such things...
Were they perhaps made in Detroit, where my father is, and brought here?

Whenever you get thirsty for beer, pay me a visit.

Huh? You're asking what this is?
It's nothing special. It's just a letter for James.
I just thought of writing one while I was making the book...
I mean, I started writing out of boredom.
How long has it been since I wrote a letter to anyone...
I've been so busy with work for so long that I didn't even have a chance to write a letter.
~
I think James has proven himself.
It's hard to find a man of character like him here.
However, I won't give in to him easily.
They say that when you fall in love too quickly, it ends just as fast.
I remember hearing about a fortune teller named De Mere in Rome.
Can you go exchange boxes with him 3 times on behalf of my ever-lasting love?

Thank you for wishing me good luck.
Fortune will smile on me too one day, right?
...

Whenever you get thirsty for beer, pay me a visit.

Something terrible happened.
James is in big trouble.
It seems he provoked Catherine while you were visiting De Mere.
I was hoping for good fortune, but I keep having bad luck.
Livid with anger, Catherine challenged James to a duel. Fortunately, James fled the scene quickly enough.
Why does James keep making trouble when I'm so busy?
If he fights her, he might end up being hurt... or...
...
I think I need to help him since his life is at stake.
~
You will find creatures called Mun in the mine.
While I'm calming Catherine down, can you defeat the Mun and Wagon Towing Mun in the mine and bring me their [Fake Dynamite]?
Please bring them before it's too late.

Oh, you brought it.
If you'd been even a little late, things would've gotten really ugly.
I'm going to protect James by switching this dynamite with Catherine's.

Whenever you get thirsty for beer, pay me a visit.

I'm sure you've noticed by now.
The reason why I'm helping James is because I've fallen in love with him.
I'm not sure when it happened.
Whenever he's in danger, I can't sleep well for worry.
I smile whenever I see him smile, and I can't stop thinking about him.
I guess I'm just a girl in love.
~
Argh! Why am I so thirsty today?
Would you like another glass of beer?
My treat.
When you're thirsty, ice-cold beer is the best.

Oh my! You sure do hold your liquor!
You must've been so thirsty seeing as you just drank up the whole glass.
Huh? It's hot outside?
...
Oh... Well, I can't stand it anymore.
James has been waiting outside in the heat.
I'm sorry, but I've got to go see him.
Thank you so much for all your help.
When you are thirsty for beer, drop by anytime.
You'll always get top service from me, since you helped me find my true love.
Oh my!
Catherine's lacky, that drunken bartender, took away the gift I wanted to give you to show my appreciation.
I hear the drunk bartender is hiding somewhere in the Filthy Parlor.
Please enter the [Filthy Parlor] upstairs.
If you use [Catherine's Perfume], she will come out thinking Catherine is here.
Please beat her up and find my gift.
If you're too slow, she might get away. So hurry up.

(You will get a 'Golden Box' if you kill the Drunk Bartender.)
