Quotes

Regular

First Meeting “ “Ah, yes. I have predicted your arrival a long time ago, young [Player]. However, your fate is ultimately in your own hands.” Regular “ “Ah, yes. I have seen many things about your future, young [Player]. If I were to tell you, there could be grave consequences.” “ “If you have nothing important to tell me, leave me be. I have much work to do.” “ “It takes years of study to understand the language of the elementals. To actually speak their language requires a lifetime of devoted effort. Now, if you'll excuse me...” “ “There are many mysteries around us. You must be patient if you wish to discover them.” “ “I believe the townsfolk are afraid of me. It is unfortunate, but I suppose it is human to be afraid of the unknown.” “ “Beware, you are standing above a potent magical field. I built my hut right here on purpose, you know.” “ “Have you made any headway with the forest spirits?” “ “I sometimes observe the local villagers in secret. I am hoping to find an apprentice. Some day I will leave this mortal plane, but my arcane pursuits must continue.” 4+ Hearts “ “I trust you enough to allow you in my basement. Treat what you find there with respect.” 6+ Hearts “ “I was married, long ago. After my wife and I split, she began flying around the countryside, cursing everything she saw. It's not a very mature way to express one's anger.” 10 Hearts “ “You musn't tell anyone... but I have reason to believe that one of the locals is actually my daughter... I could be mistaken... It's rare, but it does happen.” Rain “ “Stormy days are the only time I can commune with certain elementals. I don't expect you to understand.” Green Rain Year 1 “ “Though the unusual rains may be alarming, there is nothing to fear on this day.#$e#In fact, it is a day of great joy for many living things.” Year 2+ “ “Nature is a powerful force, not to be trifled with.#$e#Excuse me, but there are special matters I can only attend to on this day.”

Events

Note: The Wizard is not always accessible at festivals. Regardless, he has unique dialogue for each. Egg Festival “ “Hmm... And what about raw lizard egg sprinkled with blackened marrow?” Flower Dance “ “You shouldn't be up here.” The Luau “ “The merpeople are curious about your festivities. They become upset when you litter into the ocean.” Dance of the Moonlight Jellies “ “How did you find me back here? I thought I was well-hidden. Perhaps you are blessed with the gift of clairvoyance. I'm here to observe the Lunaloos... or 'Moonlight Jellies', as you call them. They possess an unusually potent magical aura for an aquatic life form.” Stardew Valley Fair “ “Welwick and I have known each other for a long time... she is a remarkable diviner, and a good friend. ...That clown... I know him from somewhere. Was it the school of illusion? Or maybe the Carnival of Secrets? Hmm...” Spirit's Eve Although you cannot reach the Wizard to see the dialogue in-game, he has dialogue scripted in underlying data files. “ “The affairs of mundane folk matter little to me, but the elementals like a chance to see you up close. It was for them that I created this silly maze.” Festival of Ice “ “Sneaking off to visit my weird tower? You're odd for a mundane.” Feast of the Winter Star Although the Wizard does not attend the Feast, he has dialogue scripted in underlying data files. “ “Ah, the mysterious Winter Star. One of the reasons I chose this valley as the location for my... research.”
