Inquire is Alfyn's Path Action in Octopath Traveler. This ability allows Alfyn to obtain information from townsfolk by chatting with them.
This Path Action is the Noble counterpart to Cyrus's Path Action, Scrutinize. The information and benefits obtainable from both Scrutinize and Inquire are the same; if you Inquire someone, you will not need to Scrutinize them and vice versa.
