Town Crier

Viamontian Town Criers

Town Crier tells you, "There are rumors of an Ambassador from the Bloodless in Silyun. How pathetic."

Town Crier tells you, "The Bloodless Queen seems to be trying to organize some sort of retaliation in Cragstone. Took her long enough."

Town Crier tells you, "Winter is come to Dereth once again. Not that you notice it so much here on the Halaetans. This is always a cold and bitter land. I'm looking forward to the day the Bloodless Queen kneels to our noble monarch, so I can get a post at a more temperate location."

Town Crier tells you, "I've heard reports of an Arena where those who choose to do so may test their mettle against one another. Ahh, the glorious days do always return, don't they."

Town Crier tells you, "A group called the Raven Hand has found something interesting."

Town Crier tells you, "Fiun Gaya seems to have *ahem* lost something..."

Town Crier tells you, "The odd denizens of Frost Haven are up to something..."

Town Crier tells you, "I hear your Bloodless Prince isn't taking that poor, brave Antius's death very well..."

Town Crier tells you, "Fiun Gaya is seeking assistance in trying to find something he, in his ineptitude, lost. Stupid Fiun. They really are good for nothing more than Eater-bait."

Town Crier tells you, "The errant fools in Silyun seem to have attracted an Ambassador from the Bloodless. Perhaps this should be investigated."

Town Crier tells you, "The Bloodless Queen is calling for all of those fools who choose to side with her to travel to Cragstone, and there speak with someone named Qumasha. Does the Bloodless Queen honestly think she can successfully retaliate against the might of King Varicci?"

Town Crier tells you, "I have heard rumors of some kind of activity among the denizens of Frost Haven. A community of snowmen? Can it be so? Perhaps it would be wise to go and investigate these children's tales come to life."

Town Crier tells you, "A group, known as the Raven Hand, has unearthed an ancient Repository on the Singularity Caul. I wonder if there is anything useful in there."

Town Crier tells you, "An Arena has been found, where those brave enough to shrug off the protections of the meddler Asheron may engage in noble conflict, testing and gaining strength through combat. Yet another place where those of Noble Blood may prove their worth against the Bloodless."

Town Crier tells you, "This pyreal appears to be stamped with the Bloodless Queen's royal mark. Well, the pyreal it's made of is appreciated at least."

Mainland Town Criers

Town Crier tells you, "An ancient arena has been found by a group of fighters. You didn't hear that from me."

Town Crier tells you, "The Queen has sent an Ambassador to Silyun. I wonder what the Queen is seeking from them?"

Town Crier tells you, "Poor Prince Borelean, I hear he isn't taking his mentor, Antius's death well."

Town Crier tells you, "It must be very hard for him. He was born on Dereth, so he's never had to come to terms with death in the way those from Ispar had to."

Town Crier tells you, "There are rumors that the Raven Hand is up to something again."

Town Crier tells you, "Hunters have reported finding frozen animal corpses deep in the mountains. This in itself wouldn't be so strange, but strange circular impressions in the snow have been found around the poor creatures. Best keep an eye out while you're traveling through the mountains."

Town Crier tells you, "I love this time of year. Everything looks so white and pretty..."

Town Crier tells you, "Ok, I'm sick of the cold now. How long until it gets warm again?"

Town Crier tells you, "Something has happened at Lunnum's Pyre. Seek out Fiun Gaya for more information."

Town Crier tells you, "There have been rumors that the Raven Hand has found an ancient Repository in the Singularity Caul. I wonder what dark secrets they are trying to dredge up this time?"

Town Crier tells you, "The Ambassador in Silyun is seeking brave adventurers for some mysterious task..."

Town Crier tells you, "Queen Elysa is gathering all those who would oppose Varicci. Speak to Royal Guard Qumasha in Cragstone for more information."

Town Crier tells you, "I've heard of a group of fighters who meet in secret at an ancient arena to test their combat prowess. Apparently they have known about the arena for quite some time, but have been able to keep it a secret simply by not talking about it. Haha, looks like the ursuin is out of the sack now!"

Town Crier tells you, "Another tragedy has befallen Fiun Gaya, who tends Lunnum's Pyre in the Halaetan Isles. He is seeking assistance from those who will go to help him."

Town Crier tells you, "Well, it seems the rumor about the hatch on Ulgrim's Island was true after all. In this one case, I guess he was telling the truth. I still think you shouldn't listen to that man, as he does still spin falsehoods and untruths wherever he ends up deciding to drink for the month."

Town Crier tells you, "My friend ran into a Snowman who said that soon the Snowmen would have the ultimate defense. I can't imagine what a Snowman would think of as an ultimate defense. Maybe they built a snowfort."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Seems to be some new group of sneaky people trying to stab there way to peace. Trouble is, if they were really good at being sneaky, we wouldn't even know about them."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I got a visit from Mr. P. the other day. Not a bad little chap for flightless aquatic bird. He gave me a little pack doll of himself. I usually don't go in for self aggrandizing merchandise, but it was pretty cute."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Boy oh boy, another winter. I'm not looking forward to this one. I'm not sure I can afford to heat my mansion, what with the price of firewood going through the roof. I may have to give up stout, or turn to a life of mime..."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I heard that Varicci is pulling his troops out of Yaraq. Apparently they didn't find any weapons of magic disruption."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I hear that the remains of the last Fiun woman have been stolen..."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "There are some very sick people in this world."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "That's ridiculous even if there were a Giant Tusker on Aphus Lassel he wouldn't be interested in our women. He would be more interested in finding Giant Nanners and stomping on people."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "But invariably we would trick him into coming to Arwic and force him to put on a show with song and dance numbers. He would get bitter and jaded and demand more nanners until he was replaced with a cheaper even more giant Tusker. To make nanners meet he would be forced to do dinner theater in a small pub in Kara, mourning for his glory days as a Giant Tusker Song and Dance star."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "So sad, why couldn't we just leave him alone?! Why?!"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Ah yes, the hatch. I told you it was real, but you didn't believe me! No, even if I did know how to open it, I wouldn't tell you now."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Hurt my feelings."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Think they know better than me."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "See how they like it when those violet balls explode."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Maybe old Lunnum just decided to take a break from the monotony of laying there on fire all the time. I've seen other skeletons do much more surprising things in this world."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Moral issues aside, the problem with Viamontian society is that it's unsustainable."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "No civilization can last forever by simply conquering those around them. As I see it there are only three possible outcomes to this kind of expansionism."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "One, they eventually come up against a more powerful enemy who will crush them. Two, they conquer until their holdings are just too vast to control and the entire civilization crumbles under its own bloated size. And three, they conquer everything in reach and then the one thing that defines their civilization works against them. They look inward at who to conquer, thus feeding on themselves and eventually falling into many separate nations."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "..."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Uh..."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "How many Viamontian's does it take to bind to a lifestone?"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Two. One to bind to the lifestone and one to run off and tell Varicci about it insuring the first's death."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "So, I've been annoyed by something for awhile. I think my backpack is infested with malicious Zefirs."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I keep placing my drinking supplies in the front pockets of my backpack, but every morning when I wake up and go to get a drink I find it's all been shifted back into my backpack."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Tricksy little Zefirs! You'll pay for this mild inconvenience!"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I stand firmly behind any decisions our Queen makes on the matter of dealing with the Viamont incursions. I'm really hoping she decides to stomp on them though."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Epileptic spongemonkies? I never said that!"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I figured out a way to make a Really dark lager using the Damaged Shadow Stones people are finding on the Caul. It's a complicated process, but it makes a Lager with a kick to its kick."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I'm not ready to share the recipe with anyone yet. There are still some... side effects that I need to work out."

Ulgrim belches and his eyes flash red.

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "You will bow down to me and bring me drinks in supplication weak one!"

Ulgrim shakes his head and his eyes return to normal.
