Felscuda tells you, "I am in the employ of Lady Folthid."
Felscuda tells you, "If you could spare me some blank parchment, I will be very grateful. I am studying in my spare time, and I need the parchment."
You give Felscuda Parchment.
Felscuda tells you, "Just between you and me, but are you seeking entry into the Folthid Cellar? My studies hint of a very fine dagger within it, of ancient origin. Beware; it may be guarded, and my heart tells me of treacherous danger within."
Felscuda tells you, "Also, you will not be able to give it away once you have it; you can only sell it. To get in to the dungeon, you will need to convince Lady Folthid to give you the key. Try giving her a wood heart from a golem."
You allow Felscuda to examine your Old Nectar.
Felscuda tells you, "Ah, I do not drink, but thank you. I can offer nothing in exchange but some information."
Felscuda tells you, "Have you heard the word Falatacot? It has something to do with Dericost, which Alatar Locke thinks was once a powerful, evil Empyrean kingdom. I hope to learn more someday!"
You give Felscuda Ancient Shard of Metal.

Felscuda tells you, "Where did you find this? From the cellar? But how...this bodes ill..."
Felscuda tells you, "I shall tell you what I know - what I truly know, that is. The cellar you have exited leads into what remains of a Falatacot ruin."
Felscuda tells you, "That is right - I know of the Falatacot, and I've studied much more than I make Lady Folthid or passers-by aware of. It is no accident that Lady Folthid's house was built here. I suggested it, at the advice of...another patron. I remain in service here secretly - but as Lady Folthid, being a noble, might talk to other powerful individuals, I have only revealed myself to you as you are not so powerful, yet. Please keep my secret."
Felscuda tells you, "Since the house was built, I have watched for signs of activity from the cellar. It has been quiet, but this device indicates new activity."
Felscuda tells you, "Someone has attempted to use it recently - I can tell by the small tarnish here, which indicates that a surge of portal magic enveloped the device. However, whatever magic was attempted did not work. This is but a fragment of the entire device, and the device would have needed to be whole in order to work properly."
Felscuda tells you, "If I were to guess, I would say that there was a faction of Falatacot somewhere doing something - I am sorry I cannot be more specific."
Felscuda tells you, "Someone should find Asheron and inform him...but he has not been seen in so long. This note may help. It was research he was conducting shortly before he left. May it be of use to you."
