- Town Crier tells you, "Have you felt the earth shaking recently? It was volcanic activity that made the ground shake!"
- Town Crier tells you, "Have you looked up at the night sky lately? I just noticed how pretty it was... I wished on a shooting star!"
- Town Crier tells you, "I need to get a Major Sparking Stone so I can make myself some stylish purple armor."
- Town Crier tells you, "My cousin found a really nice pair of boots the other day! Much nicer that what he's used to finding, anyway."
- Town Crier tells you, "News! Adventurers recently found a way to an abandoned fiery island. The loremasters call it Aerlinthe Island."

- Town Crier tells you, "Watch Out! I hear the northern forests and mountains are more dangerous these days!"

- Town Crier tells you, "News! The honored master smiths are still unable to craft armor as strong as it used to be, but there is still hope! Aliester the Loquacious has published a corollary to his treatise on fused gems! Pick one up at the libraries in Hebien-To, Cragstone, or Zaikhal."
- Town Crier tells you, "Those who have sworn to Bael'Zharon and kill their fellow humans are gathering in specially designed dungeons to do battle. I wonder who put those arenas there?"

- Ulgrim the Unpleasant
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you,"Oswald was sighted in Hebian-To yesterday!"
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you,"The strongest bowstrings are made from hoary mattekar guts. Makes bloody big bows, though, so you have to use their horns too."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you,"Asheron killed Elysa Strathelar! I have compromising translated notes that prove it."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you,"Those Lugian boards with nails in are pretty big. But I've seen bigger..."
