Ulgrim Rumors

Free Rumors:

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I've been seeing more of those mutated creatures out in the icy hills lately. I doubt that could be a good thing but I also doubt that I care, they don't scare me."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Some strange fella started collecting glands from those new olthoi that have been roaming around. I don't know why someone would want those filthy things. They smell worse than month old stout."

Stout Rumors:

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I found 13 gifts last month, how many did you find?"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Only one stout? It takes more then that to have an effect on me these days. Wonder if that means I have a problem..... nah probably not."

Stout Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Seems folks are desperate for some adventurers to help them out with their problems. I've seen people rewarding two and four times what they used to. I'd still rather just get drunk all day then help some sniviling weak townsperson."

Gear Crossbow Quest - One of the Walls of Ice was changed to a Frozen Stone Wall and vice versa in the Frozen Cave. In the map, the frozen stone wall at the very top right hand side is now a wall of ice. This means there is a route to reach the end of the dungeon with simple physical attacks but it is much longer than before.
