One morning, the player will wake up to see a side mission icon showing up on the map. When entering, the player will find Nia talking to Sandy.
| | Hey, Sandy… you’re fabulous, you know that? You spend all day walking around the hot desert to help others… |
|---|
| | You’re as Sandrocker as they come! Who’s a good camel? Who’s- |
|---|
Nia turns around and sees the player.
| | …! |
|---|
- So you’ve met Sandy!
- Were you talking to the camel?
| →So you’ve met Sandy! | ||
| | Yeah! She’s so great, I’d never expect that strapping a loudspeaker to a camel could make such an endearing mascot… | |
|---|---|---|
| →Were you talking to the camel? | ||
| | No! I wasn’t talking to a camel, I was just… Haha, okay, yeah. She’s awesome, alright? | |
|---|---|---|
| | It’s just I’ve never had the chance to see a camel up close! I know I came last time but it was all in such a rush. They’re so unique! We don’t have anything like them in Highwind! |
|---|
| | Say… since you’re here… |
|---|
| | Can you take me camel riding today? Pleeeease? |
|---|
- Yeah let’s go!
- I’m kind of busy right now…
| →Yeah let’s go! | ||
| | Yes! You’re the best! I can’t wait! | |
|---|---|---|
| →I’m kind of busy right now… | ||
| | Aw, really? You can’t make some time for me? Darn… Hmm, I think I have some work to get done as well. Rain check on the ride, I guess. | |
|---|---|---|
If the player does not accept the mission, they can talk to Nia later to start the mission.
| | I could take a break from work, want to go camel riding? |
|---|
Accepting to go with Nia.
| | Hehe, y’know, this kinda reminds me of when we were young… |
|---|
- When we’d ride the gliders together!
- When you fell off that horse…
- I don’t really remember…
-
I’m just happy you’re here with me now…
| →When we’d ride the gliders together! | ||
| | Yeah! We’d sneak out after lunch and just soar… it’s a different feeling but it just feels kind of nostalgic! | |
|---|---|---|
| →When you fell off that horse… | ||
| | Hey! That was the first time I rode one thank-you-very-much! It’s not like we had much opportunity to practice in Highwind. | |
|---|---|---|
| →I don’t really remember… | ||
| | Typical! I swear, your memory is so bad! It’s like you only remember the most and the least important, and nothing in between. | |
|---|---|---|
| →I’m just happy you’re here with me now… | ||
| | I… Me too. I missed you so much… now I’m finally here, I think I’ll stick around for a while this time… | |
|---|---|---|
| | Anyway! Let’s go! I want to go Sand Painting and Sandrunning ! It’s like the Sandrock speciality, right? C’mon! |
|---|
The missions start if accepting to hang out with Nia.

The player and Nia rides on a camel to Gecko Station Ruins. During the ride, the player will update Nia what has happened in Sandrock. When they arrive, Nia will talk more about a memory from there childhood.
| | So this is the Sand Painting place…? Hey, you remember that time when we painted my Pa’s barn door? We were so proud of our "work of art" until my Pa happened upon the scene… |
|---|
| | I don’t remember what my Pa said at the time, but I can still remember his beet red face as you grabbed me and ran away! Hahaha! |
|---|
- It was all your idea!
- Come on, it was sooo beautiful though!
- I wasn’t gonna leave you behind.
| →It was all your idea! | ||
| | In retrospect, the painting itself was pretty awesome…! We just made a right old mess of it at the same time. My Pa’s a neat freak, so I know why he got so upset. | |
|---|---|---|
| | He ended up cleaning everything up, but he kept the door with the painting. He never mentioned it, but I’d sometimes catch him looking at it with a grin. I think he liked the memory. |
|---|
| →Come on, it was sooo beautiful though! | ||
| | Right?! It was so beautiful! I mean, for a couple of kids, anyway. I think he secretly liked it. | |
|---|---|---|
| | He ended up cleaning everything up, but he kept the door with the painting. He never mentioned it, but I’d sometimes catch him looking at it with a grin. I think he liked the memory. |
|---|
| →I wasn’t gonna leave you behind. | ||
| | Yeah, and after that, I remember I was crying the whole time, not wanting to go home… then you went and talked to my Pa, taking the blame for everything… | |
|---|---|---|
| | My butt would’ve been hurting that night if you weren’t around…! I don’t want you fighting my battles, but I’m so glad you’re always there with me. |
|---|
| | Thank you… for everything. |
|---|
| | Anyway, now’s our chance to make art without getting ourselves into any trouble. Why don’t you choose what we paint? |
|---|
The play starts with Nia.
Complete the pattern in time:
| | Yours is way better than mine! But together, we made a lovely painting. Nia(Relationship +5) |
|---|
Fail to complete the pattern in time:
| | A little patience will keep your hand steady. Nia(Relationship +4) |
|---|
| | Sandrock’s such a funny place, you really wouldn’t think sand could be this much fun. |
|---|
| | Next on the agenda: Sandrunning! I’ve heard it’s a wild ride… to be honest, I’m a bit scared. Just a bit… |
|---|
| | Y’know, because we’ll be going so fast… down a hill… on a rickety wooden board… |
|---|
- Don’t worry, you’ll get the hang of it!
- Yeah, Sandrunning isn’t for everyone…
- I’ll be there with you, don’t worry.
| →Don’t worry, you’ll get the hang of it! | ||
| | …Thanks. Well, let’s go then! | |
|---|---|---|
| →Yeah, Sandrunning isn’t for everyone… | ||
| | Well, I suppose I still need to check it out… I mean, I’m in Sandrock, gotta try the Sandrunning! | |
|---|---|---|
| | As long as you’re there, I’m gonna brave it out! |
|---|
| →I’ll be there with you, don’t worry. | ||
| | I knew I could count on you! | |

When entering the Sandsled Sensation:
| | Woah, it’s huge! And so steep… if we fall off it’s not going to hurt, right? |
|---|
- It’s easy, don’t worry.
- It doesn’t hurt at all.
- Just hold on tight, I won’t let you fall.
| →It’s easy, don’t worry. | ||
| | Okay… I get it. Deep breaths, Nia… relax. | |
|---|---|---|
| →It doesn’t hurt at all. | ||
| | Really? Phew! That’s a relief… well, what are we waiting for? | |
|---|---|---|
| →Just hold on tight, I won’t let you fall. | ||
| | …! | |
|---|---|---|
| | Okay… I trust you. I’ll hold you tight, and won’t let go! |
|---|
Finishing the race:
| | Wow, you were amazing back there! I blinked for a sec, and whoosh! We where off into the air! |
|---|
Ends the activity without completing the race:
| | At the finish line! Were you a bit nervous just now? I could feel you tensing up from the backseat. |

Continue Hanging Out with Nia[]
| Now you’ve done what she wants to, continue hanging out with Nia at your leisure. | Continue Hanging Out with Nia |
|---|
The mission ends when the player exits the Sandsled Sensation.
| | Player, thanks for coming with me today. This has just been so much fun! |
|---|
| | It felt like back in the day, just kind of doing our own thing, not a care in the world. |
|---|
| | Sigh… I feel like getting older has just brought on all sorts of pressures and responsibility… Sometimes I feel there’s just never enough time to wind down for a little bit. |
|---|
Depending on how many 
romantic dialogue options the player picked during the mission, it will affect the next dialogue:
0-2 :
| | Still, it’s nice that we managed to fit in a day where we can just unwind, right? |
|---|
| | And then back to the grindstone tomorrow! See you later, okay? |
|---|
3-4 :
| | But today was special. It feels like we never get the chance to just be with each other like this. |
|---|
| | Thank you. I had an amazing time! |
|---|
| | Well… I’d better go now. I’ll see you later, okay? |
