[[Announcements - 2002/09 - Verdict#Video|Verdict Video Teaser 2]]
: Final battle between Gaerlan and Martine
 
== Discoveries ==
=== [[Town Crier]] Rumors ===
 
<font color=darkgoldenrod>
Town Crier tells you, "The Arcanum has built new Residential Quarters. Give me some money and I may tell where they are."
 
Town Crier tells you, "To arms! To arms! It's time that we take this fight where it belongs."


Town Crier tells you, "If you're into the arts and crafts thing, you might want to check out the pacifist group that's set up in Glenden Wood. They're a bit odd, but they seem generous to like-minded people."
== User Interface Updates ==
* Critical hit messages now display in the chat window.


Town Crier tells you, "You might be glad to hear that I lost my contract for saying the UST jingles. But I am trying to get another one with Telk the Addlepated, advertising the Horn of Vigilance!"
== New Quests ==
 
Town Crier tells you, "Be careful if you venture near Yanshi. My cousin, once he stopped screaming like a madman, said that the ground has been trembling at night."
 
Town Crier tells you, "I overheard some spotters talking about Gaerlan's Citadel, it sounded like they were saying it crashed!"
 
Town Crier tells you, "Rumor is that the High Queen has been in Yanshi helping Antius and Asheron's Emissary for a couple of weeks now. I've even heard tell that she's been getting her hands dirty."
 
Town Crier tells you, "I hear some enterprising tinkers found a use for ivory. Sure, it lightens their load but how am I going to get equipment now, eh? Hunt for it?"
 
Town Crier tells you, "Hrmph. At least the elementals have fled Osteth. Too bad the moment they dissolved, the other creatures started coming out of their hiding places."
<br>
Town Crier tells you, "Where did they go anyway? I thought we had explored most of this Island."
 
Town Crier tells you, "The High Queen took a contingent of men and women into caverns below Yanshi. They've been working there day and night trying to clear a path into a deep cavern where Gaerlan sacrificed those Elemental Lords."
 
Town Crier tells you, "Apparently the tower separated from Gaerlan's citadel and landed safely. What kind of magic is that?"
 
Town Crier tells you, "Did you see Martine when he fought? Oh it was amazing. Fire, and acid raining from the sky. Martine was even imprisoned for a time within an elemental shield. Then he was gone in a flash of brilliant light. When the light died out he was gone, and the portal home with him."
 
Town Crier tells you, "I heard a secret, but it'll cost you more than that."
 
Town Crier tells you, "If you see Asheron make sure you wish him well for me."
 
Town Crier tells you, "The Arcanum has built new Residential Quarters. They are accessible from Lytelthorpe, Uzis and Tou Tou."
 
Town Crier tells you, "They say that there was a sizable earthquake when the Citadel came down. Who? Oh never mind who."
 
Town Crier tells you, "I for one hope that we get to find this fool and teach him a lesson. He thinks he's so much better than us Isparians. Well he has another thing coming if you ask me."</font>
 
----
 
=== [[Ulgrim]] Rumors ===
 
<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Hello? Are you even listening to me?"<br>
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I have nothing to do with the blue bandages! Figure it out for yourselves!"
<br><br>
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."<br>
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It's good that she's following in my footsteps though, it shows she's very wise."
<br><br>
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."
<br><br>
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Are you standing comfortably?"<br>
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Then we'll begin..."<br>
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Patty Cake"<br>
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Patty Cake"<br>
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Baker's man"<br>
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Bake me a cake"<br>
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "As fast as you can."<br>
<br>v
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."<br>
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Take your time."<br>
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "What happened then?"<br>
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Very interesting, continue."<br>
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?"<br>
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."
<br><br>
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."<br>
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Yes, yes, quite common."<br>
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I understand."<br>
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It was full you say?"<br>
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 too much. He never makes much sense in my dreams either."
<br><br>
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Bah! I told you so!"
<br><br>
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."
<br><br>
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "A moment of silence for seven lost heroes."
<br><br>
<font color=green>
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."</font>
<br><br>
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."</font>

During the Verdict event, Ulgrim was found in [[Aino Lunnan-Shin]]'s tent in [[Xarabydun]].
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Oh, it's only you. Do me a favor and let me know if you see anything strange. I'm a little worried by what I've been seeing in the mana tides. And if you have any stout you might spare I would love a drink."
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Why doesn't Asheron just portal that troublemaker to the Olthoi World? Hehe, bet he wouldn't like it when he's surrounded by big nasty bugs with extra mouths and pincers and nasty bits."
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant says, "Hey you, do me a favor and let me know if you see a tall man in a red robe coming."
 
|Aino Lunnan-Shin says, "Ulgrim, please do not bug my patrons. Thank you."
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "The Citadels crashed... I felt the battle raging in the northeast for nearly half a day. At the end I blacked out, but I think Martine must have used some terrible magics against Gaerlan. When I came to I couldn't sense either of them. I don't see how Martine could have survived the energies he unleashed."
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Xara has always been a home away from home for me. Besides if things go badly it may have the last tavern in all of Dereth."
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I hope no one takes my sword. I had to leave it behind in Ayan Baqur."
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I've been informing Aino here about the importance of having a planned escape route in case of a fire or something. So far it just involves running for the Xarabydun portal, but I'm sure we should duck and cover or something."
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Oh, a new island, huh? You're all excited about it, huh? Here's one important question you have to ask yourself| Does it have Ulgrim on it? That should tell you all you need to know."
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Why don't you make yourself useful and go find out what's happening with Gaerlan."
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Martine's gone. He stood up to that bastard Gaerlan and brought down his citadel. We need to insure that his sacrifice wasn't in vain. May you find your peace Martine."
 
''Stout Rumors''
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Does that portal look any different to you?"
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "No?"
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Hmmm..."
|Ulgrim watches the portal for any changes.
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant says, "Son of a Mule!"
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Bah! I told you so!"
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "They said to me"
|Ulgrim says in a funny voice| Ulgrim, you just drank your one-millionth stout. What are you going to do now?
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "...and I said 'I'm going to Xarabydun!'"
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I love Xarabydun! It's always nice this time of year. I figured I should take a much needed vacation out here. I'm sure they will need my help below if anything should happen."
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Well, I decided to come out here and visit my good friend Aino."
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "She's been a bit worried about all of the Elemental activity."
|Aino Lunnan-Shin looks at Ulgrim with an incredulous expression.
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant says, "What?!"
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I've got a secret stash of stout. I'm not telling you where, but if anything should happen to me give this message to Celcynd in Rithwic."
|Look for it there in the lee of the stone.
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "He'll know what I mean."
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I stopped dancing here in Aino's tent since I broke one of her tables."

Town Crier tells you, "I hear some enterprising tinkers found a use for ivory. Sure, it lightens their load but how am I going to get equipment now, eh? Hunt for it?"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Oh, it's only you. Do me a favor and let me know if you see anything strange. I'm a little worried by what I've been seeing in the mana tides. And if you have any stout you might spare I would love a drink."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "The Citadels crashed... I felt the battle raging in the northeast for nearly half a day.

I don't see how Martine could have survived the energies he unleashed."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Why don't you make yourself useful and go find out what's happening with Gaerlan."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Martine's gone. He stood up to that bastard Gaerlan and brought down his citadel. We need to insure that his sacrifice wasn't in vain. May you find your peace Martine."
