Dialogue

MARU

Havin’ fresh food around the place is truly a blessin’, but our kitchen’s caught the attention of some hanuman langurs─an’ the boss wants it sorted now.
I reckon if we’ve been reelin’ ’em in with the scent of our Hippo Rider specials, we can use a different sort of smell to drive ’em out…
Namely, gulal! It ain’t toxic, but certain jungle critters can’t stand its, er, unique aroma.
Talk to Vata an’ he’ll tell you what sort of gulal makes a hanuman langur gag. Oh, an’ take a cart while you’re at it─we want those langurs to know that our hippos mean business. Stenchy business.

VATA

How’s it rollin’? Out to fling pigment at langurs, are we?
Through proper research and suchlike, I’ve learned that yellow gulal is most effective for drivin’ away hanuman langurs. Or maybe I accidentally hit one when I was throwin’ a blessin’ for plenty one day, an’ haven’t stopped laughin’ since. Who’s to say?
Just don’t forget─you’ve got a live hippo yoked to your cart, eh? In the immortal words of my mum, “Those who don’t hold on, fall off.” Ta-ta!
The secret to throwin’ the perfect arc of gulal? Don’t throw yourself with it.

SYSTEM

According to Vata, yellow gulal is best for driving away hanuman langurs. Summon the color wheel to your mind’s eye and try again!
Speak with Vata in Svarna to mount the hippo cart, then throw yellow gulal at hanuman langurs.

MARU

You’re yellow up to your elbows! I’ll bet the langurs can smell you from malms away.
Still, somethin’ tells me we haven’t seen the last of ’em, so I might borrow your throwin’ arm again before long…
