Reclaim the Golden Stool

(hero), long time no see.
Can ya spare a moment?
Thing is, it's that damned son of mine, Anansi. He's gone an' done somethin' stupid again.
He's stolen the Golden Stool and run off with it!
That there's a divine artifact we've safeguarded for ages. It's the soul of the Ashanti people.
We gotta take it back, the sooner the better, but I'm no match for my son as he is now...
Anyhow. The souls collected in that stool— they give Anansi and I our power...
Without the stool, my joints ache all over, and I can't walk one step...
So that's what I'm askin'. Can you go take my fool son to task, and take back the Golden Stool?
Nyeh...! Ya leave me no choice! I'll—
YEOOOW!!! MY BACK!!!
(hero)... please, take back the Golden Stool from Anansi...!
Nyohoho! I knew you'd say that!
Anansi's got it in his head to use Bethel's influence to get more believers.
That's bound to be why he took the stool, too. Lookin' to get into Bethel with it.
But... is that really what a god oughta be worryin' about? Gatherin' faith?
I say gods aren't just what people see us as. If they forget us, then we spirits simply return to the sky.
We become wind, we become water... We live on in nature, and keep on driftin' in the universe.
He's been so hung up on his stories that he's forgotten how we were originally s'posed to be.
Head to Shinjuku 3rd Block and get the Golden Stool back!
Head to the department store in Ginza and get the Golden Stool back!
Seems Anansi's gone an' moved the stool to the department store in Shinjuku 3rd Block.
Looks like the stool got taken to the department store in Ginza.
That stool's an ancient artifact that connects the Ashanti to us gods.
The faithful souls dwellin' in that stool are what give us power.
And now, Anansi's got all that power to himself. Stay on yer guard!
Oh, (hero). Long time no see.
...Hwah! You... You made a deal with that damned son of mine!
Damn fast-talker! The only thing he's good at is runnin' his mouth!
Fine. I won't blame ya for that.
All I'm askin' is this. Won't ya listen to my side of the story?

Nyohoho, good. Good things come to youngsters who listen to us elders!
See, Anansi's always had this fear of bein' forgotten.
He thinks he can protect the mythos of Ashanti by joinin' Bethel...
If he gets forgotten, he figures, he's as good as dead.
I say gods aren't just what people see us as.
If the mortals forget us, then we spirits simply return to the aether.
We become wind, we become water... We live on in nature, and keep on driftin' in the universe.
He's been so hung up on his stories that he's forgotten how we were originally s'posed to be.
Please—you gotta take the stool back from him. You can't let him abuse its power!
Seems like Anansi's at the department store in Shinjuku 3rd Block.
You better be careful!
Nyeh... Well, nothin' for it.
No mercy even for an old man, eh...? Yer a cold one, boy!
Well. Even if he managed to yank that stool out from under me, I'm still Anansi's father.
Sorry 'bout this, but I'm gonna teach you some respect for your elders!
That area used to be a big fancy hub with big stores lined up one after another.
The world of business is a tough one... Lotta fightin' between generations on how things oughta be done.
Some irony, eh? Fathers and sons fightin' each other tooth and nail there... and now us, too.

I'd say you're on Anansi's level. Heck, you're more than a match.
I know it's hard, but I'm countin' on you.
Unyah...! So yer gonna betray me after all!?
Shoulda figured. No mercy even for an old man, eh...? Yer a cold one, boy!
Well. Even if he managed to yank that stool out from under me, I'm still Anansi's father.
Sorry 'bout this, but I'm gonna teach you some respect for your elders!
Nyah...!
Yeah... shoulda known it'd turn out this way... I'm finished.

Anansi... I knew you'd come.

Ah, I see. Couldn't draw out its power after all, eh...?
I didn't do a damn thing to that stool.

The spirits in that stool... refused ya. You ain't worthy of their power.
They saw what you're aimin' for, and they judged it unworthy of an Ashanti god...

Anansi... Even gods can't defy fate.
If the people don't wish for us, and our mythology slowly fades away... then that's just how it oughta be.
I just regret... that I couldn't... teach you that... truth...

Seems like Anansi's at the department store in Ginza.

Tough Love

And just what is that s'posed to—
Nyeh?
You cut it out with that talk, we got company. You're embarrassin' us both.

(hero)...? Can't say I've ever heard that one. But we're new to these parts ourselves, see.

Nyeh! I'm done talking about it!
All them high-falutin' gods in Bethel got it into their heads that they're the greatest god there is.
You want me to just hand over my whole dang mythology to that schemin' Creator of theirs!?
Don't be stupid!
We're s'posed to be the Kings of All Stories!

What'd you say!?

...One more test, then. And if ya win this one, join whoever ya like! Bethel, Kethel, Schmethel, I don't care!

Nyohoho... I didn't say I was doin' it! You'll be up against our guest over here.

Anansi, my boy... I'm your father, but I ain't a fool. I know you're a trickster through and through.
And so am I! But you know all my tricks by now. Question is, do you know his?
You, boy. (hero), right? Yep, I could tell you had somethin' strange to ya the moment I laid eyes on ya.
Sorry for draggin' you into this... but do you think you could teach my fool son a lesson with this here challenge?
Much obliged!
You two are goin' on a demon hunt in Shinagawa!
Lessee here... How 'bout huntin' down (number) or more Basilisks for me?
Whoever hunts more of 'em wins! And if you don't get enough, you lose!

Let's call your time limit how long it takes for a new moon to turn into a full moon.

Good answer! Let's get this show on the road.
And... ka-PON! Get huntin'!
Then clean out yer ears an' listen up.
Oh, that so? Well, drop by again when you got more time to spare.
Well, don't keep Anansi waitin' now, it ain't good manners. Hurry on over when you've finished your business.
Feh. Well, if that's how it is.
But we ain't joinin' Bethel unless you beat this challenge. Sorry, Anansi!

Oh, are you up for the challenge?

Ya know ya can always give up, but... a decision is a decision.
...Least, that's what I woulda said. But seems like you got a challenge on your plate already, heh?
It'd be awful rude to keep them waiting, so go take care of that first.

You handlin' some other folks' challenge?
Well, can't keep 'em waiting! You better take care of that first.

Ready to face off with Anansi?

Hrm. Where in tarnation did that Anansi go off to? Is he even takin' this seriously?
Well, makes no difference to me so long as he loses. Nyohoho...

Time for the big reveal!
Looks like Anansi bagged (number) Basilisks...
(hero) took down (number) Basilisks...
Hrm... So ain't neither of you hit the target I set for you.
S'pose that means it's a draw.
Too bad, Anansi. Sounds like you ain't ready to join Bethel, so give up!

Stubborn little spider... Well, sorry for the trouble, but I don't mind if ya wanna challenge him again.
(hero), good huntin' out there! You hit the target, easy as pie!
Well, no hard feelings, Anansi, but we agreed. No more of this talk about... H-Hrm!?

A-Anansi...
Come on now, dry those tears. Don't worry about joinin' Bethel. It's fine...

Erm, what?

God DANGIT, Anansi! You little—

Come on out, Nyami Nyami! Stop that rascal Anansi!

Anansi... I already told ya.
I'm your father. You think I don't know what kinda malarkey you'd try to pull?
Whatever it is yer plannin', I can guess it all!

Nyami Nyami, take Anansi away!
I'm gonna tie you up good where no one can get to ya.
Nyeh... That boy of mine can be a real pain in the keister...
Sorry for all the mess, (hero). But I got my little helpers rounded up thanks to you distractin' him.
And hey, not for nothin': you're a pretty slick hunter yerself!
I'd say you deserve a reward of your own. Don't be shy, now.
As for that Anansi, it's time I went to give him a good scoldin'...
By the way... you've got a real knack for Basilisk huntin'!
I might as well set it up so's you can go huntin' again anytime you like.
If yer interested, come talk to my helper there, Nyami Nyami.
Now, I better skedaddle. 'Til next time, boy!

Ya remember the rules?
Hunt down at least (number) Basilisks!
Bag as many of the ones in Shinagawa as you can before the next full moon!
And ya gotta take down at least (number), or ya lose!
Hoo-wee, boy! That was quicker than I expected.
Let's wait for Anansi to get back, and then I'll drop the results!
Nyeh... What, you got somethin' more important to do?
Welp, if that's how it is. Let's stop the challenge here.

No denyin' you got a real presence to ya. I can tell yer a god who's made a name for himself.

Thanks fer playin' around with us! Here's a lil' gift.
And hey, you're a pretty slick hunter yerself!
The Nyami Nyami been watchin' ya hunt. I think ya really won 'em over!
"HE HUNTED MORE THAN 3! HE'S THE WORLD'S GREATEST HUNTER!", they said happily!
Then another Nyami Nyami came to me lookin' for presents.
"HE HUNTED MORE THAN 4!? HIS NAME'LL GO DOWN IN HISTORY!" Why, you shoulda heard 'em!
Whoop, looks like that's all you're gettin' from Nyami Nyami for now.
Ain't huntin' Basilisks a nice change of pace for ya?
I might as well set it up so's you can go huntin' again anytime you like.
There ain't gonna be any more new presents, but if yer interested, come talk to my helper there, Nyami Nyami.
Oho... First time I've seen anyone with huntin' skills like that.
Ain't huntin' Basilisks a nice change of pace for ya?

They asked me to give this here to ya!

Are ya ready?
