Town Crier tells you, "If you are a member of a secret society, you may wish to head to your vault and see if there are officers with new orders for you."

Town Crier tells you, "Is it true? Have the renegade Virindi renewed their old alliances? There is a scholar named Aruq ibn Balthar in Zaikhal who spreads such tales."

Ulgrim Rumors

Free Rumors:

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I tell you kid, I can smell it on the air. Can't you? The smell of applesauce. It smells like terror."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "No, I don't need to go to one of those godforsaken outposts and get a robe enhancing kit. I'm already wearing the highest grade of Enstoutened Robe possible."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "That being said, I'm always game to push the boundaries. Bring me a stout, kid."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Of course I noticed that my war spells hit harder! I can also knock over a spittoon from two feet further away now! Must be something in the stout..."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Oh, goody goody, Rand's updated his tag list to send people after Lugians, because there wasn't already enough trouble brewing with those big brutes..."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Oh, I think I'm having another one of my visions... Virindi and Tumeroks and Lugians, oh my!"

Stout Rumors:

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Did you ever wonder where the eggs we eat come from? And what about the supposed chicken our cooks make? I don't eat either of them... just in case."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Did you know my face is on the Soul Staff?"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Yup, I'm immortalized! It's the third face down. Some people may claim it's the guy who created the staff, but he's nobody and I'm famous."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Don't crowd too close to me kid. The last person who got too close to me ended up spilling a little stout on my robe, and, well, they had to fish him out of the bushes behind Claude's tent. After he landed."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I'm sorry, you want me to go to which tropical hellhole island and harvest what now? No, I think I'll stay here and enjoy my stout. I hate the tropics. Mosquitoes sucking the blood out me remind me uncomfortably of myself with a mug of stout."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Is it just me, or do you hear a quiet chuckling coming from Claude's tent? Oh, I hate those Virindi. With the smug looks on their faces..."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Let me give you a bit of advice my friend. Never look up a magician's robe, it ruins the surprise. Wait, or was it a magician's sleeve?"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Mark my word, kid. Pack your stuff and go. When the Virindi roll back into town, they will spare no man, woman, or purple-cheeked Tusker."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "My pappy always used to say that courage, compassion and loyalty are the keys to getting your heart's desire. But, I figured out an easier way. Sometimes you just have to ask. So here goes."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Friend, can you spare a stout?"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Oh boy, winter stuck around a little longer this year, huh? Well, at least Berkholt keeps the stout nice and tepid."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "So you heard it too, eh? Virindi moved in on Mar'uun? That's not a bad omen or anything."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Sometimes you people forget... I'm not trapped on this island with you... You're trapped on this island with me."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I'm sorry, what was I saying? Hurm."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "You doubt my chess abilities? Let me put it this way. Have you ever heard of Yuri, Bobby, Trumper, Blue?"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Morons."
