Emotions will be displayed as: text {emotion} King Burtan is a male dwarven king. He should have a deep voice and sound confident and commanding. Tharroli is a male dwarf. He should sound lonely and sad. [1/9] King Burtan: Hello, traveller. I suppose you have taken note of the fearsome dragon above our fortress. {normally} [2/9] King Burtan: Ozoth is her name. She lives atop a mountain named for her, called Ozoth's Spire. {explaining} [3/9] King Burtan: She used to be entirely docile to us dwarves, but ever since she began nesting, she's become hostile. {explaining, sadly} [4/9] King Burtan: Judging by your impressive equipment, you look like you've seen your fair share of large creatures. {interestedly} [5/9] King Burtan: I am not asking you to slay Ozoth, that would be nearly impossible. I just need you to feed this enchanted flower to her. {lightly} [6/9] King Burtan: It's a native Elven species usually diluted down to create sleep medicine. {explaining} [7/9] King Burtan: The pure substance, however, is very potent and it should calm the beast, perhaps enough to make it hibernate until her egg hatches. {explaining} [8/9] King Burtan: We sent in Tharroli to do the job, but I bet he lost his dang flower again. The only issue is, dragons do not like flowers. You will have to force feed it to her. {explaining, worriedly, disappointedly} [9/9] King Burtan: To reach Ozoth's Spire, go through a cave to the north of the entrance, near the fortress entrance. Follow the flames of Ozoth's breath from there. {explaining} -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [1/7] Tharroli: Great, another person fell down here. No one seems to be able to survive the trip down... Except for us, I suppose. {annoyedly} [2/7] Tharroli: I was supposed to bring some magic flower to calm down the dragon, but I must've lost mine at some point. {dismissively} [3/7] Tharroli: Wait, you brought one? Oh, thank goodness! We still might be able to save my fellow dwarves. {shocked, impressedly} [4/7] Tharroli: I'll take your flower and just toss it down into the pit. It should calm the dragon. It's a shame that we're pretty much just another sacrifice though... {sadly, hopelessly} [5/7] Tharroli: There. The flower's gone. Now, I can tell you're thinking about escaping. However, it isn't as simple as that. {hopelessly} [6/7] Tharroli: First of all, you'd have to make it across this pit, which is nearly impossible. And if you manage to do that, who knows what else is ahead? {depressed} [7/7] Tharroli: Try to escape if you wish, but it's probably hopeless. I'll think of another way out, you go ahead without me. {regretfully} -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [1/5] King Burtan: Have you fed the flower to Ozoth? You have? Thank you, I cannot believe you were brave enough to approach a dragon. I only curse myself for not honouring my people. {shocked, grateful, impressed} [2/5] King Burtan: Ozoth was responsible for countless deaths of my men. Not that I can blame her, you should see dwarf women when they rear their young! {humorously} [3/5] King Burtan: I trust the task was no mean feat. You deserve a reward for this triumph. {explaining} [4/5] King Burtan: You have also earned the trust of the dwarves. You will now be allowed into other dwarven cities. {proudly} [5/5] King Burtan: Thank you, kind traveller. May we meet again. {normally}
