Grimal Bloodaxe 1 Beer Mug |

[INFO]: You have to do it manually since there is no dialogue. |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe eagerly takes the mug and sips from the beer. |
|
Grimal: Ahhh, now that hit the spot. |
Grimal: My thanks, Klyros. |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe takes another sip. |
|
Grimal: You seem to be of the helpful sort. |
Grimal: Will you help an old dwarf strengthen his ties with Talad? |
|
YOU: Of course I will help. |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe nods, then takes another sip from the beer, as he wipes the foam from his beard he looks at you with fixed eyes. |
|
Grimal: Let me know when you are ready to start. |
|
YOU: Now is as good as ever. |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe glances towards the red iron temple, then refocuses his gaze on you. |
|
Grimal: Talad has been good to me. |
Grimal: During my time as a member of the Sunshine Squadron, I have been in many a battle. |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe pauses for a moment and rubs his face with both hands. |
|
Grimal: I know Talad held his protective hand over me many times. |
Grimal: But I have rarely thanked Him properly for doing so. |
Grimal: I need you to help me to give proper thanks to Talad for all He has done. |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe picks up his axe and runs a thumb down the edge. |
|
Grimal: Now that I am retired, I have more than enough time to give thanks. |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe returns the axe to his side. |
|
Grimal: I hear there is a servant of Talad in Gugrontid. |
Grimal: Go and tell Kra I want to thank Talad, I'm sure he can think of some way for me to do that properly. |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe takes another sip from his beer. |

Quasus Adyum |
|
YOU: Hello, Grimal would like help with giving thanks to Talad. |
|
- Quasus Adyum listens intently as you tell him Grimal's plan. |
|
Quasus: I see... |
Quasus: Well Klyros, I would suggest that your friend should write a book as a tribute to Talad. |
Quasus: He could perhaps write about how he spoke to Talad and how Talad then kept him safe during his battles. |
Quasus: This way everyone will know what a great warrior he was and what a caring God Talad is for keeping him safe through all those horrific battles... |
|
- Quasus Adyum nods. |
|
Quasus: Yes, I would say a book is the way to go. |
|
- Quasus Adyum stares at the crystal for a few seconds. |
|
Quasus: If your friend finishes his book, bring a copy to me and I will take it to Talad's main temple. |
Quasus: It would not hurt to take another copy to Ojaveda to be placed at their shrine. |
|
- Quasus Adyum smiles at you. |
|
Quasus: I eagerly await your return with the book. |

Grimal Bloodaxe |
|
YOU: Quasus suggests that you write a book explaining how Talad helped you. |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe rubs the top of his head and looks at you with a raised eyebrow. |
|
Grimal: I must write a book you say. |
Grimal: Hmm... |
Grimal: This is not quite what I had in mind, but if the priest told you so, then I will do it. |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe looks to the ground, then back to you. |
|
Grimal: I will require some help with this. |
Grimal: Will you help me again? |
|
YOU: I have time to help, what do you need? |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe gives a sigh of relief. |
|
Grimal: You are warming this old dwarf's heart, friend. |
Grimal: Let's see, I will need lots of ink and paper, would you be so kind as to fetch me two. |
Grimal: This will give me some time to reflect over what I want to write about Talad. |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe starts swinging his axe at his side. |
|
Grimal: What to write... |
Grimal: What to write... |
Grimal: Think Grimal think. |

- Grimal Bloodaxe only realises you're standing there as you hand him the ink and paper. |
|
Grimal: Back so soon? |
Grimal: Thanks for getting them for me, but I was unable to come up with an idea for the book. |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe looks out over Hydlaa. |
|
Grimal: What I need is a muse. |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe ponders for a few minutes, then gives a big smile. |
|
Grimal: A nice big frothy muse... |
Grimal: Bring me another beer, that will do the trick. |
Grimal: Lubricate this ol' brain of mine. |

Grimal Bloodaxe 1 Beer Mug |
|
YOU: Here is your beer. |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe takes a long sip from the beer. |
|
Grimal: Now I'm ready to write this book. |
Grimal: Come back and ask me if I am done in a few days, I might be done by then. |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe takes another sip of beer. |
|
→ Wait 5 minutes |
|
YOU: Are you done yet? |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe glares at you. |
|
Grimal: Ah, what a joke, funny Klyros. |
Grimal: I am only just starting the book now. |
Grimal: I needed another muse... |
Grimal: or two, before I could start. |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe chuckles softly. |
|
Grimal: Come back in a few more days. |
|
→ Wait 5 minutes |
|
YOU: Are You done now? |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe looks at you. |
|
-His hands and face are covered in ink-stains.- |
|
-His face is filled with a deep look of despair.- |
|
Grimal: Almost, young one. |
Grimal: Just give me a few more days. |
|
→ Wait 5 minutes |
|
YOU: What about now, you must be done? |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe smiles broadly. |
|
Grimal: Huarwar, my friend. |
Grimal: I am finally done. |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe sighs in relief. |
|
Grimal: The only problem is that my spelling is absolutely terrible, so I would like to have it read and corrected by a much more able person than I. |
Grimal: Will you help me find a good scribe to do so? |
|
YOU: Yes I can do that. |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe's smile widens further. |
|
Grimal: That is marvellous news. |
Grimal: Here take this and find a scribe. |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe goes to hand you his book but pauses. |
|
Grimal: Actually... |
Grimal: Would you like to hear some of what I wrote, I would hate for it not to be worthy of Talad. |
|
YOU: Yes, I'd love to hear what Talad did for you. |
|
-The old wrinkled face of Grimal smiles as you speak.- |
|
Grimal: I was hoping you would. |
|
-He opens the small book and picks a passage to read for you.- |
|
Grimal: Ok, let me read you this... |
Grimal: As I was accepted in to the Sunshine Squadron I knew this was what Talad had wanted of me. |
Grimal: Feeling his presence behind me during all of my trials and tribulations my faith was rewarded, all of my prayers were answered with the bestowing of the Squadron's badge. |
Grimal: To celebrate my acceptance I had an axe made, one that I had spent a long time designing; it was a perfect embodiment of all I felt of Talad. |
Grimal: Though all that I had asked of him was little compared to what he would soon put me thought to test my faith... |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe closes the book. |
|
Grimal: Do you like it? |
Grimal: Of course you do. |
Grimal: Here, you can take this to get checked over now. |

|
- Talisa Tamariss nods. |
|
Talisa: I see... |
Talisa: Very well. |
|
-She then flips through the book.- |
|
Talisa: It will probably take me a few hours to completely correct the spelling in this one, quite bumpy handwriting. |
Talisa: And it's going to cost you, say, 100 tria. |
Talisa: Just ask me if I am done in a few hours. |
|

Grimal: You have helped me once again. |
Grimal: I'm afraid I have one more favour to ask of you. |

|

|
YOU: I think I can do that. |
|
- Grimal Bloodaxe smiles with glee. |

|
- Toda Ombretis looks at the book and nods, smiling at you. |
|
-She opens it and reads over a few of the pages.- |
|
Toda: Oh, it's a book to give thanks to Talad. |
Toda: What a great idea. |
Toda: I don't think I've seen anything like this before. |
Toda: People normally bring items precious to them. |

Quasus Adyum |
|
YOU: I am back with the book you suggested. |
|
- Quasus Adyum seems amazed as you give kra the book. |
|
Quasus: I had given up hope that you would return with a copy for me. |
Quasus: It has been many days since you asked for my help. |
Quasus: I am glad your friend was able to complete the book. |
Quasus: Let me have a quick peek. |
|
- Quasus Adyum quickly flips through the book. |
|
Quasus: Very nice, very nice indeed... |
Quasus: Ah I see it is from Grimal. |
Quasus: A long time devout Talad follower. |
Quasus: Would you be interested in hearing what he thinks of Talad? |
|
YOU: I'd love to hear some of what he has to say. |
|
- Quasus Adyum nods. |
|
-Kra then flicks though the book a picks a passage before kra begins to speak.- |
|
Quasus: This seems to be a passage about one of Grimal's first expeditions... |
Quasus: We had been trudging though the labyrinth for two weeks, tracing back a group of creatures which had tried to break though the Bronze doors. |
Quasus: There had been a few little fights but nothing we couldn't handle. |
Quasus: When we finally caught up with them the battle was vicious, many of my new friends were torn to pieces. |
Quasus: All of the rest of us were injured, me and few others badly. |
Quasus: I could hear many of those lying in their own blood just pleading to be saved, just waiting for a healer to reach them. |
Quasus: I sat praying silently to Talad, praying for him to give me strength to live until help found us. |
Quasus: I spent my energy in prayer before fatigue overcame me. |
Quasus: During the following night as the patrol was recovering and waiting for help the creatures came and took many of the weakest. |
Quasus: Destroying them as they did. |
Quasus: I, despite being among the worst off, was left unharmed as those round me were taken. |
Quasus: I could only thank Talad when I awoke to see what had happened and felt truly blessed from that day that Talad listened to my prayers. |
