Quotes:Fondue

This is a list of all of Fondue's trivia in Magical Starsign.

Erd

Quiet Plateau

"This is a quiet plateau. The energy of this planet swirls around, creating a lull in this very spot. If that balance were disturbed, winds would engulf the planet."

Kahve Ruins

Outside

"These are the Kahve Ruins. The Espresso civilization built this place. It rises to a towering 1,200 miloketers."

Inside

"This place was built by the Espresso civilization. Its systems are powered by a closed-energy loop for maximum efficiency. If the whole system were to shut down, it would need an influx of energy from outside to start up again."

Gummy girl's room

"I sense extremely powerful energy here. This must be the center of the ruins."

Gumbo Gaol

"Did you know that only two people ever escaped from Gumbo Gaol? And those two people are <protagonist> and Lassi!"

Forgotten Land

"A great citizen of the Espresso civilization once lived here. Then the robots took it over and rebuilt it as a prison to detain any magicians they captured."

Peatmoss

"Spiny moles used to swarm over every inch of this planet. Now, their numbers are in decline."

Digging Grounds

"It seems this lively spot is where the spiny moles work. Digging for earthworms, day after day. They sure seem to like worms..."

Ant Hole

"It really stinks here. It stinks like ants. It's the formic acid secreted by ants. That's what gives this place its distinctive stink."

Gorgonzola's Hole-a

"This hole was dug using the legendary digging tool known as the diggy claws. Although it's a hole, it's filled with the passion of a master digger. It is a good hole. A hole to remember."

Where the Stars Sleep

Entrance

"The power of the planets sleeps in the land. This power is stored to near-limitless levels. The constant flow of power can build mountains and carve valleys."

Windmill room

"There's a windmill here that's used for generating power. Energy streams from the sun and entwines all things. The wind that spins that energy into a single strand that can be extracted from the earth."

Rio Villa

"This is a robot town. People lived here long ago. But they faded away, as people do, and their robots are all that remains. The robots can make their own batteries, so they should be around for a while."

Emerald Core's room

"This room contains the robot that stands above all other robots. But this robot cannot leave the room. It knows everything that has happened on this planet."

Ships' Graveyard

"In the time of the Espresso civilization, many different makes and models of rocket came through this spaceport."

Plateau of the Giant

"Long ago, the Espresso civilization seemed ready to rule this planet. And this place was to be a great palace fitting to their majesty. It looks like their plan must have backfired somehow."

Hangar

"This secret hangar houses the whirly flying machine. If you had enough of these machines, I bet you could take over the whole planet. I guess the espressos spent too much money on robots and on what became the Kahve Ruins to put them into mass production."

Path of Five Organs

"We must be inside of the stone giant now. It seems the very stones that make up his lumbering body are infused with life. It’s creepy, seeing them talk and move!"

Cassia

Tangerine Beach

"This is Tangerine Beach. There's an old saying that the world will end when a sudden rain falls on this beach in the morning. Thankfully, there are no morning rains in the seven-day forecast."

Frog Pot

"This is the Frog Pot! No matter when you come here, there are always frogs a-croaking. The male frogs ribbit with boisterous, manly power. The female frogs ribbit with gorgeous femininity."

Port Pescato

Town

"This is the otter town. As you can see, the otters are fairly mild mannered by themselves. Get them in a group, though, and they go a little crazy! Of course, you'll always find a few bad otters in the bunch, but that's rare."

Docks

"You're in Port Pescato. Otters used to be able to swim for miles, but modern otters can only swim a couple dozen yards. That's why they built docks and started using boats. As it turns out, they're not very good at the whole sailing thing, either."

Long John Brothers' House

"These guys make a mean pair of long johns. In fact, for a little while, their long johns were all the rage on Puffoon. But fashions come and fashions go, and now that the fad has ended, they've got a ton of stock left over."

Mandarin Beach

"This is Mandarin Beach. The otters call it "whispering beach" for all the couples who profess their love here. Legend says that if a girl loses her footing in the sand here while walking with her favorite fella… He'll always reach out a hand to steady her."

Lover's Cove

"The tree here was once called the "great water tree." Why? Because it spouted water! But as the power of the planet began to wane, the water stopped flowing. Now, no one even remembers the tree as it once was."

Dragon Beach

"This shrine was originally built to calm the violent seas. Up ahead, there is even an altar for sacrifices (nothing but the finest gummy frogs would do!) to appease the waters. Over time, the tradition faded away. Now, this place is just a hideout for pretend pirates."

Nata de Coco

Outside

"If you look closely, you can tell that the rock here was carved by hand. The stones quarried here were taken to the island far to the east."

Sprout Rock Room

"It took centuries for flowing water to carve this cave into the shape you see before you now! Yes, the water took its time, slowly sculpting and shaping the cave. The otters use it now, but it will outlast them and be used by future organisms yet to evolve."

Aquarino Room

"If you don't keep the special unfreezing water particle found here away from regular water… Why, you could make it so that no water on the planet would ever freeze! That's why this cave was made… To hide away the aquarino!"

Granule Island

Docks

"This is the holy island where the water people once lived. When the otters came, the water people simply vanished. In a sense, they were chased away by the arrival of the otters. The otters have feared a reprisal ever since."

Overlook

"You're standing in a very significant place within the Holy Water Pyramid. If you had ESP, you could see the column of energy rising here."

Ambergris Preparatory School

Town

"The buildings here are shaped like octopi…or is it octopuses? Craaken built them all. They make you feel queasy and a little weird when you look at them, don't they?"

Halls

"This is Ambergris Prep, founded by the great Craaken, who spent much of his time studying the sun. Here's what he had to say: The sun is not hot--only its atmosphere is. There's a perfectly habitable surface beneath that superheated atmosphere."

Library

"There are several of Craaken's old books here. He left behind so many mysteries… He said all the planets' features were made by the sun. He also often claimed the sun was not heavy at all. What does that even mean?"

Holy Water Pyramid

Outside

"The stones used in the Holy Water Pyramid were taken from Nata de Coco. But it's a mystery how the water people carried them here."

Third Floor

"The water people created this pyramid long ago. I hear it was used in interplanetary communication, but no one knows how."

Fire Pot Room

"A long time ago, there used to be a deep hole here. The water people performed their ancient rituals there. Later, the otters rebuilt it, and that's where they held their fire rituals."

Top Floor

"The water people are now entirely extinct, without even a single descendant. Maybe they all turned into normal water, and now, they're just lying around in pools and oceans, watching over everyone."

Puffoon

Spaceport

"Puffoon's great city, Bena Rikashi, foresaw the space age and built a huge spaceport before anyone else. But sometime after that, they lost momentum, and now Bena Rikashi is just a small city-state with big pretensions."

Bena Rikashi

"This is Bena Rikashi, the largest city in the Baklava system. It's not what it used to be. Just looking around, you can see how much this place has gone to the dogs."

Space Police HQ

First floor

"This is Space Police HQ, center of peace and justice in the solar system. It was founded by the first king, King Panna Cotta the Pretty Smart. He had great foresight. He once said, "A constitutional government is but one step in our political evolution.""

Bathroom

"Nice, breezy meadows are perfect for a moment of self-reflection. Up to now, I have given you a total of <number> trivia-time factoids."

"So, this is that village with the really long name. Honey Mint Caramel… White Chocolate Sundae… Rappa-dappa-ccino? See?! I can't even say it!"

Palace

Courtyard

"This is Bena Rikashi palace, home to King Suspiro. There are many juicy rumors surrounding the king, but who knows which of them are true? That's the price of celebrity for you."

Throne room

"A country with a king is called a monarchy. A country without a king is called a republic. But a country where the people run things even though there's a king shouldn't be called a monarchy at all. Think about THAT!"

Couscous Ruins

"Time flies on the shoulders of the winds. And the winds hold the memories of the galaxy in their whispers. The breaths of every living thing are like the footsteps of time in the wind. But this is all an illusion. Time exists as a different entity alongside this romantic concept."

Gren

Carbonara Jungle

Rocket area

"Trees inhale carbon dioxide and exhale oxygen. So seeds are made from carbon dioxide and water. All they need is the energy of the sun to come alive."

Overlook

"The forest is a single organism with a single life. A single tree shares in the life force of all. All the trees share in the life force of one."

Well

"This plaza was created by a certain magician a long time ago. He used underground water and the power of the earth to control the rain."

Tropica Village

Town

"The people of Tropica Village don't worry about starving because the nearby Carbonara Jungle provides for them. They can just sit back and relax, living in peace and happiness. But the conflict spreading across the solar system has taken a toll on their idealistic values. It seems that they are much less trusting and generous than they once were."

Fortune-Teller's Cabin

"This is the house of the famous fortune-teller. Some people think fortune-telling is a bunch of bunk. They might be right...or wrong."

Salamander Cave

"Salamanders don't have scales, because they're covered in mucous membranes. That membrane has to stay wet and out of the light, or they'll dry up and die."

Assam

Town

"Real pirates like to assault ships on the high seas. But these otters have spaceships, so that's why we call them astro pirates."

Port

"You need to have the ability to solve complex equations to navigate through space. But the otters have memorized them all by rote. Maybe they remember them so well because so many of them died from simple mistakes in their equations."

Holy Tree Yggsalad

Outside

"Trees use energy from water and the earth. They do not use the energy in fire and wind. They give back to all creatures in the form of seeds and oxygen."

Yggsalad 1

"Craaken had a saying. "Life is the ability to affect your environment. Life is the ability to make yourself. All of this is made possible by the fifth phase of matter."

Razen

Paella

"This is Paella, the pot town. These pots make more pots when they need to. It's the cycle of life! This process requires handpicked clay and the finest-quality glaze."

"You can see the lava flow from Habanero Volcano here. The underground stone melts and flows up as lava."

Capsicum Caverns

Entrance

Condimen Tower

Entrance

Condimen Tower 1

"A long time ago, this place was like a huge garage. People tinkered everywhere. Now, the focus is more on philosophy than technology. Technology-minded dwarves have had a hard time fitting in."

Condimen Tower 7

"This place has been refitting rockets for centuries. This place has seen rockets that fought in wars and rockets that have explored the ends of the galaxy."

Nova

Sugarleaf Plains

Rocket area

"This is the light planet. It is inside of the sun. The atmosphere is made of plasma, but the surface is not too hot. Plasma is a high-energy form of matter that's sort of like water, air, and fire all at once."

Shadra

Cocoabutter Valley

Starway

"This is the dark planet. In the same way that creatures evolve, planets evolve into stars. When two stars collide, they rotate around each other and form a binary star. Eventually, this new star gives birth to countless planets and becomes their sun."

Bridges

"Dark matter flows through the valleys here on the dark planet. It is so dark it's hard to see, but it does have mass."

Cave exit

"You can see Chromagar Cave from here. It's made entirely from gummy matter. A certain balance of light and dark energy can create gummy matter. That's also how the plasma atmosphere of the sun is created."

Chocomilk Caves

"The ground of the dark planet is a low-energy substance stripped of all its plasma properties. It's also known as a neutron star. That's why it can't support trees or grass."

Chromagar Cave
