Story
Prologue
He shows up right after finishing up the emotion tutorial[1], in front of Basil's Old Shoe house, deep in the Vast Forest, being fought (and killed) by the party, serving as a tutorial for the player to learn about follow ups[1] and release energy. The party will have some dialogues before starting combat:
* Basil: Ah! Not another Sprout Mole! * Kel: It's all good, Basil! We got the hang of this by now!
After the fight, They will continue:
* Hero: And there you have it... HERO's BATTLE TUTORIAL 101! And I'm sure that as we fight more battles, our teamwork will improve overtime! * Basil: Wow, you guys! That was so amazing! * Kel: Ah, that was nothin'... Heh, heh. I've taken down way bigger guys than that! I should teach you some of my skills one of these days! * Aubrey: Basil... I know you're not the type that likes to fight... but it's good to know how to defend yourself too! * Hero: You know... I've actually been working on a book all about battles! Maybe we can all study together next time. I'll give it to Omori to hold onto for now. * Hero: As we get stronger, I'll be updating the Follow-Up section of the Self-help Guide, so be sure to check it out every now and then! * Hero: Omori, you should know... When we gain exp and level up, sometimes we'll also learn skills. * Hero: skills are powerful and have a wide range of effects, but each of us can only remember up to 4 skills at a time. * Hero: After you learn a new skill, don't forget to equip it from the player menu, okay? * Kel: Yeah, yeah... We know! Can we go to Basil's house now? * Hero: Okay! That's all I had to say! Patience, Kel...
Day 2
During the introduction cutscene for Sweetheart, Sprout Mole Mike honor Ye Old Sprout before starting the "Sweetheart's quest for hearts" show, playing a sad song before continuing it.
* Sprout Mole Mike: Before our show, we wanted to take a moment to honor the life of someone who has been an inspiration to us all. Our beloved leader, Ye Old Sprout. * Sprout Mole Mike: He was truly the father that none of us deserved. Let us have a moment of silence in memory of him. * ... ... ... ... ... * Sprout Mole Mike: May he rest in peace.
