Uh, hi. Sorry. I'm pretty busy right now ...but hey, have you heard of [[Zhia Lian]], the goddess of Whimsy? She's a great god! Would you like to go to a party in her honor?
; Tell me more about this party
: It'll happen in just a few days at a real casino! There's food, drink, music, ...you know, a party. And [[Zhia Lian]] herself is supposed to show! A party with a god is always fun. Especially a god of whimsy! It'll be unpredictable!
; Sure, I'm interested in the party.
: Here! read this! *Brandon hands you a batch of crumpled hand-written pages.* That's my last extra copy. I had thousands of pamphlets printed in [[Statehelm]] -- at an incredible expense I might add -- but they're lost in the desert now. This whole trip has been brutal...
: I have to read all this for a party?!
; Yeah. [[Zhia Lian]] has certain requirements before she'll attend a party. Everybody has to know the rules. So I need to ask you to read this and then answer a couple of questions. I'm really sorry. But the party will be completely worth it!
: Okay... I'll read it and talk to you afterwards.

: Boom! Already read it. What are the questions?
; You read it? Just like that?
: Yep. I'm a fast reader.
: Ohhhh, right. I'm supposed to read it first! Be back later.
; Okay, so I need to ask you a couple of questions on what you've read, and I can only ask you one time. If you get any question wrong, I can't invite you to the party! Here's the first question.
