Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It's a sad thing, what's happening to Glenden Wood. Pretty little town. I always liked the fragrant breeze that rustles the leaves of the forest. Nothing else in Dereth smelled like it. Too bad the air out there smells like burning corpses now."
 
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I've been working on some Olthoi Bait in case they decide to come back. Through long and arduous testing I've discovered that they can't resist stuffed mushrooms.

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It's a sad thing, what's happening to Glenden Wood. Pretty little town. I always liked the fragrant breeze that rustles the leaves of the forest. Nothing else in Dereth smelled like it. Too bad the air out there smells like burning corpses now."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I've seen it all in my time on this weird, wacky world. Nothing surprises me any more. Not even foul, stinking betrayal. But don't listen to me. No one ever does."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Yep, I stopped at Vissidal Isle on the way back. My little Merwart friends are doing quite well! Finally, one of them set up a tavern! I just wish they'd stop worshipping me. It's so hard to carry out a simple conversation with someone who drools all over your boots."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Okay, okay, Rand's developed some powerful and tasty brews, and so has Duke Raoul. Based on... what, Tusker Spit and Moarsmuck? Just you wait. I'm still working on my Banderling Scalp Porter. Thick, yeasty, and filled with protein! It's not just for breakfast any more!"
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I bet you didn't know that some magical components are quite deadly if ingested."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I sure didn't."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I've heard people babbling that there's no way Asheron would allow the Viamontians to raid his secret cookie stash in Knorr. Why not? Maybe he doesn't like cookies any more. My point is, a person's tastes and opinions can change. Except for mine. Make mine a Stout!"
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Ale? I don't drink water unless I have to."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "But, I might have to so I'll just hold onto this."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It's good to be back in Ayan Baqur. Things haven't changed much around here, have they? That devil Claude is still up his old tricks."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Okay, okay, Rand's developed some powerful and tasty brews, and so has Duke Raoul. Based on... what, Tusker Spit and Moarsmuck? Just you wait. I'm still working on my Banderling Scalp Porter. Thick, yeasty, and filled with protein! It's not just for breakfast any more!"
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I'm not sure how long I'll stick around in Ayan Baqur. I may decide to visit Sanamar, just to see what the big deal is. Or I could live among the Fiun for a while. Come to think of it, living with those poor sad creatures would be too depressing. I'd end up drinking too much."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Yep, I stopped at Vissidal Isle on the way back. My little Merwart friends are doing quite well! Finally, one of them set up a tavern! I just wish they'd stop worshipping me. It's so hard to carry out a simple conversation with someone who drools all over your boots."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "So what, exactly, does Varicci think he's going to find in that secret wing of Knorr? From the way I heard it all described, I bet he'll just find a pile of dirty paintings that Asheron hides away when Elysa comes to visit."
