"Yes, there are many in Arrowroot who have the knowledge to repair that instrument. It is called a Shamisen. For some, that may be the way to summon the South Wind with the true Skirl."

"This ball you have, Mister Ventus, is a Soothe Rattle. It is a percussion instrument, as the shamisen is a stringed instrument, and the flute woodwind. It is used in the bonding ritual, along with Apricorn dust, to help calm a Pokemon that it might befriend a trainer...should their bond prove strong enough. I believe this is a product of Soor's Nature Art. He's a trader from Corsage Port. The Mamo, however, are the only ones who know how to make these, so he trades with us."

Ventus looks at the now termed Shamisen with a newfound appreciation with his eyes, before a look of confusion took. "Excuse me, forgive any rudeness and ignorance on this part, but what is a 'true Skirl? My knowledge of Mano culture and terminology is rather lacking, so some clarification would be most appreciated!" he said to the man, letting Nathan and Shiva answer their own respective questions/topic of interests while he fulfilled his own curiousity/information mining.

His next instrument designation and intricate function being revealed to him also greatly intrigued the researcher, prompting him to say: "Bonding Ritual that requires Apricot dust as an component? Interesting.....do you think you could teach me it, or direct me to someone in the area that could? Does it matter what kind of dust you use, or its quality and finer composition?"
