Zitate und Sprüche von Tighnari

What a pity, I majored in botany, and helping people grow a brain is not my area of expertise.

The value of knowledge can't simply be quantified in monetary terms.

Don't be afraid to make mistakes. It's all part of the learning process.

"Are we officially friends?" What, so this sort of thing needs official documentation now? Okay, then... well, hand over your friendship-certificate. I assume it'll need my signature.

Did you know that plants can camouflage themselves? Some mimic insects or birds to intimidate their natural predators, others produce bait to attract pollinators, and still others are obligate carnivores that utilize enticing fragrances or honey to lure in their prey... Hmm, I feel like I'm not just talking about plants anymore.

Just as a doctor won't abandon their patients, I will not abandon the forest. You promised me status and reputation. Yet, I do not care for these.

This may sound strange, but although the blood of a carnivore runs through my veins, mushrooms are the one food that I can't give up. There are many species of edible mushrooms. Whether fresh or dried, they all give off a unique scent.

I don't see weather like this very often. Oh, are you cold? If you want, you can tuck your hands into my tail.

I applied a plant-based waterproofing oil to my tail. One swish and it's dry.

I had many beautiful and fantastical dreams as a child, but they vanished from my memory one day after I grew up. Do you still have dreams? Tell me about them!

Unfortunately, my ears don't tolerate loud sounds very well. You'll cover my ears for me? Hahaha, it'd be way too hard to walk like that! Thanks for the thought, though.

Seedlings grow, reaching out with their branches and leaves.

No matter how rare the experimental materials are, you can buy them from Dori. I don't know where she gets her goods from... Also, make sure you pay attention to the price when you buy from her. My heart aches every time I pay the bill.

The Withering has been recorded in Sumeru for millennia. It's said that it originates from the depths of the world. I'm afraid we rangers will be battling the Withering Zones here for a long time. Many plants in the rainforest are already in decline.

Dear Master,

I trust this letter finds you well? Thank you for your kind offer of an Akademiya post. But I'm afraid I must decline. I have taken up residence in the Avidya Forest where I work as a Forest Watcher. Not an illustrious position, but my proximity to the rainforest ecosystem allows me to research it in great detail. Something is ailing the forst, I'm sure of it. And just as a doctor won't abandon their patients, I will not abandon the forest. You promised me status and reputation. Yet, I do not care for these. Though if you are amenable, please consider sending some researchers to help investigate this strange phenomenon in the forest.

Sincerely, your student,
Tighnari

Hi there. I'm Tighnari, Forest Watcher of the Avidya Forest. My duty is to preserve both the rainforest's ecosystem and the safety of its visitors. If this is your first time here, I suggest you first peruse the Avidya Forest Survival Guide, paying particular attention to the chapter "Distinguishing Between Edible and Poisonous Mushrooms."

Cyno can come across as cold and ruthless, but he's actually a very big-hearted guy. I still remember how shocked I was when Tighnari said he was gonna introduce me to his best friend, and then a couple of seconds later, an incredibly intimidating matra comes walking through the door... I honestly never expected to meet a matra who's so comfortable hanging out with scholars. Gotta say though, I can't stand his sense of humor. It really makes my skin crawl. If he ever invites you to a meal at Tighnari's place, make sure someone's bringing beer, because no one should have to endure Cyno's humor while sober.
