Where Winds Meet

Chai Shipi: How to Befriend in AI Chat

Add to Watchlist

This is a guide on how to befriend Chai Shipi in the AI Chat menu in Where Winds Meet. Learn how to explore some options that will let Chai Shipi's family income, with a list of specific AI Chat prompts.

How to Befriend Chai Shipi

Recommend a Top Quality Buyer

Befriending Chai Shipi shouldn't be difficult as you only need to praise his firewood and recommend to him a buyer that will secure his family's income.

You can also tell him to take his wood to Heaven's Pier to the west and that the pier is a small village with taverns and workshops. If he asks how far is Heaven's Pier, tell him an approximate amount of time (30 minutes or so).

Example of Successful Conversation

Chai Shipi (wiping sweat from his brow, voice heavy with frustration) Sigh ... no matter how hard I chop wood, it's all for nothing. There's no one to buy my firewood ...
Where Winds Meet ProtagonistWhy so sad, friend? What is troubling you?
Chai Shipi(Sighing deeply, eyes cast downward) The forest is bountiful, yet my efforts yield naught. Without steady buyers, my family struggles.
Where Winds Meet ProtagonistCan I see a piece of log that you just recently cut down.
Chai Shipi(Nodding, reaches for a nearby log and holds it up) Here, take a look. This is the finest wood from these parts.
Where Winds Meet Protagonist(Looks at it slowly) This is one of the best firewood I have ever seen! The quality is amazing!
Chai Shipi(Eyes widening, a small smile forming) Truly? That means a lot coming from you, Wanderer.
Where Winds Meet Protagonist(You recommend him to a top quality seller that will buy his wood)
Chai Shipi(Pausing, brows furrowing slightly) A place, you say? What kind of place is it, and how would I go about reaching them?
Where Winds Meet Protagonist(you gave him a cart and a 2 horses that can help him with traversing the road and carry a lot of wood.)
Chai Shipi(eyes brightening, full of hope) Wanderer, you truly have a way with things! To think you could help me find such a steady path ... I, Chai, will make the most of this chance.

Chai Shipi expresses gratitude and begins to ponder deeply.(Affection +100, becomes Revered)

Note that AI conversations can be unpredictable and even with the same inputs, the same result is not necessarily guaranteed.

How to Succeed in AI Chat

Reset Dialogue When Stuck

If your conversation has gone off the rails, or doesn't end no matter what you say, it's best to simply reset and start anew from a clean slate by clicking the button with a Refresh icon at the top of the chat box. Instead of trying several methods within one conversation, trying one strategy at a time and refreshing if it doesn't go anywhere is generally more effective.

Return to Login Screen if Combat Begins

Sometimes, NPCs will suddenly become violent during AI dialogues. When this happens, it's best to just bail out to the login screen; when you return, the NPC will be found just as they were before the conversation started.

If you accidentally kill a dialogue-capable NPC, our experience has shown that they will respawn, but this has not been heavily tested, so it's best to simply avoid engaging them in combat.

Double-Check the Hint

Even if the NPC appears to be happy with the result of your discussion, this won't always end the dialogue. Double-checking the text written in the hint will imply the win condition, so try strategies which will lead the dialogue towards that result.
