The Lonely Folklorist
While visiting Sierokarte for a new mission, the crew reunites with the folklorist Johann. He's interested in Lyria's ability to manipulate primal beasts, and his curiosity drives him to join the crew.
On a visit to Sierokarte to pick up a new job request, (Captain) and crew have an unexpected reunion.
Johann: Hello! I haven't seen all of you since that matter on Lognos. It's been too long.
Vyrn: If it isn't Mr. Scholar! You doing good?
Johann: I am. Quite the coincidence running into you here. I'm looking for a job request myself.
Sierokarte: That's gonna be a problem! I only have one request available at the moment.
Johann: All right, then I propose that we undertake it together, since our last mission worked out so well.
Johann: I believe it may be quite enlightening to work with others for a change.
Lyria: Yay! I'm sure you'd be a big help!
Sierokarte: All right then! Be careful out there, everyone!
It doesn't take long for them to complete the mission and return to Sierokarte.
Johann: Requests really are more fun if you do them with others!
Choose: You always go it alone?
Johann: Yes, that's right.
Johann: How can you say that when we've been apart for so long?
Johann: I figured as much. Nothing gets past me.
Johann: Just a warning, but I've been known to cry.
Johann: You had me going there.

Johann: Now let's get down to business.
Johann: Sob...
Vyrn: Hey! Where are you going, Mr. Scholar?
Lyria: Wait!
The crew later catches Johann as he runs through the market with tears in his eyes and frantically tries to calm him down.
(Captain) ultimately apologizes for going overboard.

Vyrn: Hmm... So you've been doing research and handling jobs by yourself this whole time?
Johann: Well, since I'm primarily a researcher, I couldn't just join a crew.
Johann: What if I received a job request during important research or had my research call me away from a crucial job?
Johann: As such, I've usually worked alone up to this point.
Johann: But I've started to think it might be interesting to work with others from time to time.
Choose: Care to join our crew?
Johann: Goodness, yes. Assuming I won't get in the way, of course.
Choose: So what? You want an invitation?
Johann: You're being rather cold today...

Johann: The truth is that I actually broached the subject because of my keen interest in Lyria.
Lyria: Huh? Your interest in me?
Johann: As a scholar, I wish to know more about the secrets of the Astrals.
Johann: So it should come as no surprise that I'm curious about the source of Lyria's power to manipulate primal beasts.
Lyria: You want to know the secret of my powers?
Johann: Precisely! On Lognos Island, you said you didn't know the source of your powers, right?
Johann: Do you not wish to find out? I'm personally brimming with curiosity.
Lyria: Um... I want to know too.
Lyria: (Captain)! Why don't we have Johann come with us?
Johann: Thank you, (Captain). That's quite the relief to hear.
Vyrn: Yeah! If it means finding out the secret behind Lyria's powers, I'm all for it!
Choose: I don't want to have to take care of him.
Johann: You make it sound like I'm some stray dog or cat you picked up.
Lyria: I'll take good care of him! I promise!
Johann: Ha-ha.
Vyrn: Uh... Even I feel kinda bad about the way you're getting treated here, Mr. Scholar.
Vyrn: But if it means finding out the secret behind Lyria's powers, I'm fine with bringing you aboard!

Johann: I believe I should prove useful to you. As you know, I have a certain degree of fluency in the ancient language of the Astrals.
Johann: If you intend to find the Island of the Astrals by following the footprints of the Astrals themselves, my expertise will likely come in handy.
Johann: I'm looking forward to working with you again, (Captain). We're going to make it to Estalucia one day. You can count on it.
Thus the folklorist Johann joins (Captain)'s crew.
His wealth of knowledge will doubtless prove a great help.
