Kilas Tungse |
|
YOU: May I be of use? |
|
Kilas: Ah, YOU, it's good to see you again. |
Kilas: Think you can handle it? |
|
YOU: I'd love to try. |
|
Kilas: That's the spirit! |
Kilas: As you might know, I'm an architect. |
Kilas: I have lots of plans for houses - you have the Housing Layout - but the Octarch has been slow in reviewing them. |
Kilas: Naturally the Octarch has lots of work to do, but Hydlaa is on the brink of a housing shortage. |
Kilas: I can think of four of the Octarch's confidantes who might be able to speed up the review. |
Kilas: If you can get them to agree to that, I'll reward you greatly. |
Kilas: Make sure you ask me about those confidantes before you go running off; I'll give you a list. |
Kilas: Good luck! |
|
YOU: Who are those confidantes you mentioned? |
|
Kilas: One is of course the Vigesimi Amidison Stronghand. |
Kilas: The Octarch is bound to listen to a Vigesimi. |
Kilas: There's also an aristocrat by the name of Loren Chama, a personal friend of the Octarch's. |
Kilas: Saria Dunwallow is the Octarch's clothier with more influence than she lets on. |
Kilas: Finally, Commander Raithen of the Shadow Squadron has known the Octarch for some time. |
Kilas: Ask them to speed up the review, or just tell them about it. |
Kilas: You'll think of something. |
Kilas: Providing for their wants and needs will probably get you better results. |
Kilas: Don't let me down, YOU. |

Amidison Stronghand |
|
YOU: Is there any way you can speed up the review of housing plans for Hydlaa? |
|
Amidison: Thanks for bringing this to my attention, citizen. |
Amidison: But I can't go to the Octarch empty handed. |
Amidison: You do have a plan on paper, do you not? |
Amidison: A layout of some kind? |
|
YOU: offers the housing plan to Vigesimi Stronghand. |
|
Amidison: Let me see that. |
|
-She studies the document.- |
|
Amidison: Everything looks to be in order. |
Amidison: It's obvious a lot of work went into this. |
Amidison: Very well. |
Amidison: I shall bring it to the Octarch's attention as soon as I can. |
Amidison: Take this seal as a token of my word, |

Loren Chama |
|
YOU: There's about to be a housing shortage in Hydlaa. Can you help? |
|
Loren: More common rabble in Hydlaa? |
Loren: Bah. |
Loren: Why should I help in this endeavour? |
Loren: Although, five hundred tria might make me think twice about it… |
|
-Loren smiles greedily.- |
|
YOU: Here is a 'contribution' for you. |
|
Loren: Here's a seal of verbal contract. |

Saria Dunwallow |
|
YOU: Would you be willing to talk to the Octarch about the housing shortage? |
|
Saria: What's that, darling? |
Saria: You want me to speak to the Octarch on your behalf? |
Saria: Normally, I'd be all too happy to help, but it will have to wait a few weeks. |
Saria: I need to take a trip to Ojaveda and pick up my custom-made carpet from Brintec. |
Saria: Do you know where I'm going with this, dear? |
|
YOU: I'm pretty sure I can guess. |
|
Saria: Splendid. |
Saria: Take this receipt to Brintec. |

Brintec Dev-Onni |

Saria Dunwallow |
|
YOU: Here you are. It's quite heavy. |
|
Saria: Marvellous! |
Saria: This saves me so mush time. |
Saria: I can see the Octarch with little delay. |
Saria: Here's my word; it's my bond. |

Raithen |
|
YOU: I could use your influence to help fix the housing problem in Hydlaa. |
|
Raithen: And just when do you think I'll be able to speak to the Octarch? |
Raithen: As if it matters to me - do I look like a Hydlaan?…. |
|
-Raithen sighs.- |
|
Raithen: Listen. |
Raithen: It's not your fault. |
Raithen: I'm just upset because I can't leave my post to buy a ticket to the Pterosaur Arena show before they're sold out. |
Raithen: Too bad; I know the Octarch will be in attendance and I could discuss the matter then. |
Raithen: The saddlers usually have tickets to sell. |

Krestal Dhusho |
|
YOU: Do you have any Pterosaur Arena tickets to sell? |
|
Krestal: Yes Sir, I've got a handful left. |
Krestal: Only ten Tria! |
|
YOU: A jingling sound is heard as YOU pulls some coin from his money bag. |
|
Krestal: Pleasure doing business with you, Sir. |
|

Raithen |
|
YOU: You were fortunate. There were a few tickets left. |
|

Kilas Tungse |
|
YOU: I've got the support of all those on your list. |
|
Kilas: I'm impressed. |
Kilas: Now, give me the seals, please. |
|
YOU: Here they are; all accounted for. |
|
Kilas: YOU, I think you might just have helped the housing shortage. |
Kilas: After all this persistence, things are bound to happen soon! |
Kilas: You have earned this, and my respect. |
|
-Kilas hands you a glyph.- |
|
Kilas: If you like, I can point you in the right direction for others I know of that can help you further your educational quest. |
|
YOU: Sure, who else can I speak with? |
|
-Kilas Tungse breaks a wide grin.- |
|
Kilas: Ohh, that's wonderful. |
Kilas: There is so much to tell you. |
|
-Kilas Tungse ponders for a moment, straightens his posture out, and speaks with enthusiasm and extreme precision as if he pretty much knows everyone.- |
|
Kilas: Let's start right here in Hydlaa. |
Kilas: Over in the arena, I have it on good authority that the arena boss, Gregori Stevald, has been asking around about something. |
Kilas: Perhaps he may have some tasks for you. |
Kilas: Over in Ojaveda, the smithy, Trasok, may be a standing member of the Crafting Association, but I know he loves brain teasers…riddles that is. |
Kilas: Over in Gugrontid, there is a brilliant Kran by the name of Kerryk Cor. |
Kilas: And if you're ever out by the Eagle Bronze Doors, in the wilderness you may find a campfire and there you'll often find two fierce competitors of Octarch's Chess. |
Kilas: And by the water wheel at the fortress there, you can often find a very good friend of mine, Thrynt Glass. |
Kilas: Finally, should you ever earn your way into the winch area, the folks there often have something for passers by to do. |
Kilas: In particular, Raul Ursino is a friend of mine. |
Kilas: After that, in the winch building, itself, you'll find a brilliant engineer by the name of Lerok. |
|
YOU: That's a lot of good information, thanks. |
|
Kilas: Not a problem. |
Kilas: I'm always glad to keep our fine citizens well informed. |
|
-Kilas Tungse smirks with satisfaction.- |
|
Kilas: Safe travels, my good friend. |
