== New Dialog ==
;Town Crier
{{Dialog|
|Town Crier tells you, "Word has it that a young man from Rithwic has gone missing."

|Town Crier tells you, "Adventurers rejoice, new dried rations make long quests into the wilds possible. Never again go days without necessary sustenance. Choose to carry rations rather than bags of back breaking heavy potions. Yes friends, rations are for you. Buy some from your local grocer today!"

|Town Crier tells you, "Strange depressions and small ponds have been found around the Southern Land-Bridge recently. Authorities are investigating and assure everyone that there is nothing to fear."

|Town Crier tells you, "I saw a mosswart the other day with a nice little frost sword. Man I wish I had that weapon when I first came to Dereth... There I was, all wide eyed and filled with wonder at the new strange and magical surroundings. I came across this beautiful dancing flame, it almost looked human... I know, I know, but I didn't have any clue what an elemental was back then! Needless to say the elemental didn't have any romantic notions about Isparians and I found myself taking my first of many trips to the lifestone."

|Town Crier tells you, "I hear that Larry the Bunny Master has been a bit more sociable lately."

|Town Crier tells you, "Alchemist Leandra of Martine's Retreat caused waves in the alchemy community when she released her latest findings on that strange substance, chorizite."
|Town Crier tells you, "Alchemist Leandra had this to say about her chorizite research; "I was disappointed when I tested my latest formula. It failed to alter the various materials I applied it to in any useable way. That is, until I found the right metal-crystalline substance.""

|Town Crier tells you, "Some creatures are returning to their homelands slower than others. Apparently they are carrying their relics and treasure with them. Seems like a perfect opportunity to help them out eh?

|Town Crier tells you, "Some monsters never before seen on the landscape are crawling out from their dungeons. Be careful out there."

|Town Crier tells you, "Locksmiths are now crafting key rings that can be used to carry around certain keys, leaving more space for important items and treasure."

|Town Crier tells you, "If you see a young man named Tamian Wilmit, his friends in Rithwic are very worried about him and would like to know where he is."

|Town Crier tells you, "A great warrior recently said something quite odd to me| "I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve.""
|Town Crier tells you, "Do you suppose he was referring to the Harbinger?"

|Town Crier tells you, "The ice and snow are again receding. They say if some special Carenzi pops his head out of his burrow and sees a Shadow then we will have another month of winter. Guess the shadows aren't to active on Marae Lassel this year."

|Town Crier tells you, "Creatures all over Dereth are migrating back to their homelands. It seems that the strange Virindi influence that caused them to roam is no longer affecting them. Perhaps the Virindi have finally given up and will leave us in peace, only time will tell."

;Ulgrim the Unpleasant

Ulgrim was found on the [[Obsidian Span]] bridge during this update.

|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I had a dream that I was standing on the Obsidian Span and three suns were rising over the horizon. The left sun rose pitch black and cast a dark veil over the land, making it shift and twist in the shadow. The right sun was a deep blue and where it shed it's light the land became as one uninterrupted blue plane without life. The center sun was a brilliant red and it's light came in waves of blood raging up the River Prosper."

|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "A moment of silence for seven lost heroes."

|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Are you standing comfortably?"
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Then we'll begin..."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Patty Cake"
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Patty Cake"
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Baker's man"
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Bake me a cake"
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "As fast as you can."

|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Hello? Are you even listening to me?"
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I have nothing to do with the blue bandages! Figure it out for yourselves!"

|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I've been studying other people's dreams recently. Tell me your dream and I'll give you a greater insight into your psyche."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Yes, yes, quite common."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I understand."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It was full you say?"
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "That's a perfectly normal dream. The giant mugs of stout are symbols of wholeness and well being and the scantily clad barmaids are a sign of a healthy libido and respect for the womanly form. I wouldn't worry about the talking rabbit to much. He never makes much sense in my dreams either."

|Ulgrim stumbles and mutters something unintelligible, "Y syh uhla tnaysat ra fyc y piddanvmo. Frah ra yfuga, ra hu muhkan ghaf ev ra fyc y piddanvmo tnaysehk ra fyc y syh, un y syh fru ryt tnaysat ra fyc y piddanvmo."
|<small>[[That Which Is Ours/Spoiler Translation|SPOILER| Translation]]</small>

|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "So you've heard about Leandra's wonderful new chorizite formula? Yeah, made that same formula years ago, except I used orichalcum. My formula made normal beer mugs larger on the inside than on the outside. I only have the one sample left here. It holds about 30 normal mugs of stout."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It's good that she's following in my footsteps though, it shows she's very wise."

|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I've been studying other people's dreams recently. Tell me your dream and I'll give you a greater insight into your psyche."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Hrmmm."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Yes, I see."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "And then?"
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "This is a classic case of Redirected Introspection. You obviously aren't happy with the you that you perceive other people as perceiving you as. This is exemplified by the reoccurrence of water throughout your dream. Also you probably shouldn't drink so much before bedtime."

|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I've been studying other people's dreams recently. Tell me your dream and I'll give you a greater insight into your psyche."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Take your time."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "What happened then?"
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Very interesting, continue."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "So let me recap to make sure I have it. You dreamed of a Virindi abducting you then strapping you to a weird table and performing horrible experiments on you. And later returning you to your bed as if nothing ever happened?"
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "This is a tough dream to decipher... I'm pretty sure the Virindi represents the hardships in your life and the experiments being performed on you are situations that you feel are out of your control. Or it's equally possible that you are being abducted by Virindi and you need to move somewhere safe where they can't find you. Good luck with that."

|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "The monsters are moving again. It would seem that the Virindi are focusing their control on something else. I think they're planning on taking the Direlands over. You should see the way Claudes been smiling at me recently, like he knows something, that smug cloak-head."

|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I've been studying other people's dreams recently. Tell me your dream and I'll give you a greater insight into your psyche."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Hmmm."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Yes, please continue."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Oh?"
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Well, what we have here is a case of Mental Divergence. Yes, we need to find out why you are compelled to dream of these "Giant Monougas". Try writing a list of the ten things you are most afraid of and come back and see me next week."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Oh? Do you always keep a list of your top-ten fears on you? Alright... let's just look at the list, shall we?"
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I see that you wrote Giant Monouga nine times here, interesting."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "And the last item is A Really Large Monouga. I think I'm beginning to see a pattern."

|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I've been studying other people's dreams recently. Tell me your dream and I'll give you a greater insight into your psyche."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Wait... a Mattekar?"
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Oh dear."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Uh..."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Ummm... Your crazy! Next."

|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I tried getting Claude drunk thinking I could get some information out of him. After various explanations of the social aspects of drinking and it's utility in forming emotional bonds, he lifts the stout mug to his mouth hole. The stout pours right through him and onto the floor. Agh! What a waist! That's alchohol abuse! You can't trust a creature that can't hold their liquor."
