Dialogue

 * "Hi, friend. Have you noticed Yakkington has the biggest, bluest eyes ever? Those eyes made that first bond of trust between us nearly a decade ago on that snowy peak. I've never seen anything quite as blue, which is why the color is so difficult to match when making Yakkington dolls! I've tried so many different materials but have had no luck yet getting it just right. I've heard that Azure Crests come close, but I'm skeptical. If you happen to come across any, I'd happily exchange a gift for one so I can try it out."

Trivia

 * Nicholas's name is probably a reference to the gift-giving Saint Nicholas.
 * Nicholas always travels with his trusty partner, Professor Yakkington.
 * According to John Hargrove, Nicholas' "...list of possible haunts at launch was 137, and given 1 a week, that's 137 weeks (or ~2.6 years) of Nicholas' travels before he even considers going to the same place twice." It is yet unknown if this list will be extended. (source)
 * Week 137 will begin on November 28th, 2011. If no additional locations are added before then, and Nicholas is allowed to restart his cycle, his first repeat visit will be on December 5th, 2011.
