Dialogue

 * Brother Mhenlo: Ah there you are, (party leader's name). I wanted to let you know how grateful I am for all that you have done.
 * Cynn: Can we leave now?
 * Devona: Cynn, you're being rude...
 * Cynn: I'm just speaking my mind, Devona. I'm sure Mhenlo had a wonderful time visiting with all his old friends, but it's time we headed back to Tyria.
 * Eve: I think somebody is jealous.
 * Cynn: Jealous? Of who?
 * Eve: Oh, I don't know. Perhaps Jamei.  Or the twins.  Or Danika.  Or maybe that nice guard that lead us into...
 * Aidan: That's enough, Eve.
 * Brother Mhenlo: We don't need to fight among ourselves. Besides, Cynn is right.  It's time we headed home.
 * Zho: Well met, (party leader's name)! Many have come here from Shing Jea Island to honor you.
 * Panaku: We are also here to mourn Master Togo. I regret that he will not see me atone for my past.  I know that I was a disappointment to him.
 * Headmaster Vhang: Do not dwell on such things, Panaku. We have important decisions ahead.  Who will take Master Togo's place?  I could be the youngest to ever hold the position.  I am sure it is what Master Togo would have wanted.
 * Kai Ying: And people think I am always joking.
 * Headmaster Vhang: But I am not joking.
 * Kai Ying: That is the problem.
 * Mei Ling: ''So, after you defeated the Luxons in the Convocation, what happened next?
 * Lo Sha: Now, now, Mei Ling, I had help. (party leader's name) was there, too.
 * Mei Ling: You are too modest, my love.
 * Talon Silverwing: The Tengu honor your deeds this day, (party leader's name). You have shown my people that nobility and strength of spirit may be found among humans.  You have given us hope that we may yet know true peace.  For this you will always be welcome among us.
 * Count zu Heltzer: The saints of old have guided you well, (party leader's name). All of the Kurzick people owe you a great debt this day.  To (party leader's name)!
 * Elder Rhea: Every clan, every individual who sails with the Great Luxon Armada owes you much, (party leader's name). Never before have we seen one with your strength.  You are welcome to fight by our side whenever you wish.  May you always know victory on the field of battle.
 * Minister Zal: Ah, (party leader's name), my friend! It is so good of you to meet iwth us after succeeding with your mission for the ministry!  on behalf of the Ministry of Flame, I would like...
 * Minister Jaisan: Just a moment, Zal! (party leader's name) was under orders from the Ministry of Earth...
 * Minister Nai: Lies! It was clerely the responsibility of the Ministry of Water...
 * Minister Tao: My friends, you are forgetting paragraph 12 of subsection D on form 427K, which clearly states...
 * Canthan Peasant: You ministry officials are worthless!
 * Canthan Peasant: Yes! You did nothing against the plague!
 * Canthan Peasant: If it was not for (party leader's name), we would all be dead!
 * Minister Zal: Yes, we should all applaud the actions of (party leader's name). Jaisan, Nai, Tao... applaud!
 * Emperor Kisu: Cantha mourns the loss of a great man this day.
 * Emperor Kisu: Master Togo was beloved by all. His service during the Tengu Wars brought peace to a nation at war.
 * Emperor Kisu: Perhaps his greatest accomplishment stands embodied before us.
 * Emperor Kisu: In our time of greatest need he brought forth heroes, the likes of which we have never seen before and likely will never see again.
 * Emperor Kisu: You have done the impossible.
 * Emperor Kisu: You have defeated Shiro.
 * Emperor Kisu: You have brought an end to the plague.
 * Emperor Kisu: You have brought peace, however brief, to two peoples who have known only war.

The surrounding Canthan Peasants will tell you to ignore the ministers, for they were completely ineffective at dealing with the Plague.
