New Dialog

Town Crier

Town Crier tells you, "Have you been to the Lost City of Frore recently? I've heard that the undead there have begun to reinforce their halls."

Town Crier tells you, "I stumbled across an encampment not too far from Zaikhal the other day. It was eerily empty and unoccupied. As if the people there just disappeared!"

Town Crier tells you, "I'd always thought that the robe from Frore was a little drafty. I guess I was wrong."

Town Crier tells you, "I've found the oddest assortment of items on creatures around here. Drudges dropping weapons and armor, golems with magic enhanced items and rats with lots of random pieces. Strange?"

Town Crier tells you, "I've heard that Larry was having a tryst with Nuhmudira. Now that she doesn't have any real clout, he's cast her aside like an old worn blade. What? That's what I've heard."

Town Crier tells you, "I've seen it, with my own eyes, people who have shrugged off Asheron's protection go and look at those creepy statues and disappear!"

Town Crier tells you, "If you visit Frore can you bring me a helm, I want to get one and dye the trim black."

Town Crier tells you, "If you want to visit Frore, best remember to take a group and be ready to face creatures tougher than Dark Revenants. Seems the inhabitants are preparing for tougher battles."

Town Crier tells you, "Okay, here is the plan! You get a fellowship together in Yaraq, I'll get one together in Plateau and we'll go take control of the Battle Arena! What do you say?"

Town Crier tells you, "Some small creepy statues have been showing up in towns, they make me nervous."

Town Crier tells you, "Those Shreth are disgusting creatures! They'll eat anything! Even the corpses of fallen adventurers."

Town Crier tells you, "Ufet, Prophet of Blades, in Zaikhal, has been even busier now than he was before. I wonder what he is up to."

Town Crier tells you, "You know that farmer outside Lytelthorpe -- the one with the rabbit problems? Selflora says he's back."
