You're reaching the end of your time at the academy, Player. I wonder if you've noticed how much you've grown?
Today's lesson is on discoveries and a skill required to find them.
If you don't know about discoveries, you'll be missing out on most of the fun of adventuring.
- 8191
- Instructor Alan
I'd have to say that the easiest discoveries -- or at least the most convenient ones -- are towns. When you first enter a town, you will discover it.
If you open the "Discoveries" list within your Journal, the new town will be included there.
- 8192
- Instructor Alan
Now, permit me to explain discoveries.
There are sixteen types of discoveries made by Adventurers travelling the world: historical sites, religious buildings, historical relics, religious relics,
artwork, treasures, fossils, plants, insects, birds, small creatures, medium creatures, large creatures, sea life, ports/villages, and geography.
- 8193
- There are sixteen types of Discoveries.
To consult them, open the "Discoveries" list
within your journal.
- 8194
- Instructor Alan
It would not be an overstatement to say that the prowess of an Adventurer is measured by the number of her Discoveries.
You should set out on your adventures with the intent on completing the lists.
At first, your lists will be blank, but as you explore, it will fill with the records of your deeds.
- 8195
- Instructor Alan
Next, we need to cover the method of finding Discoveries. You won't find them by randomly walking around.
Let me ask you. What do you think you should do when you're trying to make a Discovery?
- 8196
- How will you respond?
- 8200
- Instructor Alan
Exactly. The Adventurers' Guild has many requests related to Discoveries. Once your lesson is complete, you would do well to look there.
- 8201
- Instructor Alan
Sorry, Player, the best way is to take requests.
The Adventurers' Guild has many requests related to Discoveries. Once your lesson is complete, you would do well to look there.
- 8202
- Instructor Alan
But just because you take a request doesn't necessarily mean you will make a Discovery. You will need to gather information on the Discovery.
Be ready -- I'll be asking you to complete a practice request at the end of this lesson.
- 8203
- One method of making Discoveries is
to take requests from the Adventurers' Guild.
- 8204
- Instructor Alan
Do you have any questions? If you'd like, I can explain discoveries again.
- 8208
- Instructor Alan
All right, let's review Discoveries.
There are sixteen types of Discoveries made by Adventurers travelling the world: historical sites, religious buildings, historical relics, religious relics,
artwork, treasures, fossils, plants, insects, birds, small creatures, medium creatures, large creatures, sea life, ports/villages, and geography.
Sometimes you may find something unique without knowing to which category it belongs.

Do you have any questions? If you'd like, I can go over it again.
- 8213
- Instructor Alan
You learn quickly.
Talk to me again when you're ready to continue your lesson.
- 8214
- Instructor Alan
You don't have a lesson with me.
- 8215
- Instructor Alan
Have you finished your break?
I need to give you an item to use in this next lesson, but your inventory is full.
Please make room for it.
- 8216
- Instructor Alan
Have you finished your break? Next, I'd like to tell you about a skill that will help you make discoveries.
If you have taken a discovery request and gathered all the information, all that's left is to make the discovery.
But how will you know where the discovery is?
- 8217
- How will you respond?
- 8219
- Use only the gathered information
- 8220
- Instructor Alan
Yes. You must be paying attention. I'll explain that skill now.
- 8221
- Instructor Alan
Yes, that would work, but there is a skill that would help you find it more reliably.
- 8222
- Instructor Alan
The Observe Skill is a useful skill that tells you the location of a discovery.
When you use it in a wide open area on the sea or on land, it will display a large arrow.
- 8223
- Instructor Alan
An item called the "Perception of Scholar" can be used to the same effect as "Observe".
- 8224
- The Observe Skill can be used to learn
the location of a discovery.

All right, let's review the Observe Skill.

Good. You learn quickly.
Here, take this "Perception of Scholar".
- 8233
- Instructor Alan
Let's take another break. I'm going to have you make an actual discovery. Talk to me when you are ready.
- 8234
- Instructor Alan
...Player, weren't you supposed to be in my class?
- 8235
- Instructor Alan
I'm going to have you make an actual discovery.
I need to give you an item for the lesson, but your inventory is full. Please make room for it.
- 8236
- Instructor Alan
Now, you are going to make an actual discovery. You'll need this item.
- 8237
- Instructor Alan
It has the same effect as the Observe Skill I previously explained.
- 8238
- Instructor Alan
You will be discovering "The Travels of Marco Polo"
Talk to the scholar to find out more information.
Report back to the academy once you've discovered it. As your reward, you will receive a Landmark Ribbon.
Use the Landmark Ribbon whilst on land to return to the area's entrance. Use it if you become lost.
Good luck.
