When first visiting the Merrysville, several inhabitants are concerned about the rocks lying on the railroad track, making the [[train]] unable to pass.<ref>"There was a rock- slide near Union Station. The train can't get through until it has been removed." - NPC</ref><ref>"Big rocks block the railroad. The train cannot pass." - NPC</ref><ref>"How can we get the big rocks off the railroad tracks? I'll bet the Mayor leaves them there 'til election time." - NPC</ref> Others inform Ninten about there being a [[Duncan's Factory|factory]] to the north of the town, which have started to produce rockets,<ref>"I got this from Duncan's factory in the north." - NPC</ref><ref>"I've heard that in Duncan's Factory up north, they've started building huge rockets." - NPC</ref> one individual even suggesting that they might help him to get rid of the rocks on the tracks.<ref>"I think... I think... The rockslide on the railroad tracks... Could be blown up with a Duncan Factory Rocket." - NPC</ref> Some people comment on how hostile beings roam the outskirts of the town.<ref>"I've heard many scary monsters lurk outside town. I'm so afraid that they'll take my money away. - NPC</ref><ref>"An awful creature beat me up. If you're going to the station, watch out!" - NPC</ref> | |||
A man located between the [[department store]] and [[hotel]] asks Ninten to answer his questionnaire, which consists of two questions. One is about whether or not he thinks the train tickets are too expensive, and one is about whether or not he has used the [[List of battle items in Mother#Bullhorn|Bullhorn]] yet; whatever Ninten replies, the man will thank him for his cooperation and give him the [[List of miscellaneous items in Mother#Telephone Card|Telephone Card]] in return. | A man located between the [[department store]] and [[hotel]] asks Ninten to answer his questionnaire, which consists of two questions.
