- It looks like the frost on the ground.
- I lift my head up to look at the bright moon,
- I lower my head feeling homesick.
After he tells you his story, "Show him a sad look".
There is a random chance to react to the story later when talking to him (steps 3-5). If you chose "Show him a sad look" it will reset your position in the quest back to this point. Its recommended that if you are given the 5 choices to react, chose a different option or select cancel.

- Note: If you attempt to have him make them again, which you have to, carry only the amount he needs. Otherwise, he will take all of the extra items you have! You might have to keep running to kafra, but it's better than re-hunting 5 tries worth of items. Whether he succeeds or fails is random,and it is based on the rate of making the bottles as an Assassin Cross. Keep trying until he is successful.
