Head Blacksmith Newyear:
Go ask your sponsor to bring 771 D-Grade Crystals. Come, now, don't make a long face. These crystals are integral to the process of making the armor. I can't afford to supply them for free - this isn't a charity, you know.
What's that you say? You don't have a sponsor? Oh, for crying out loud! Why didn't you tell me that before wasting my time? Come back and see me again after you find a sponsor.
