Dialogue

Quest Acceptance

Aelstrom: “What did you find in the sea caves? Some kind of abomination? A Corruption Rift? I’ve heard tales of such things.”
Player: “It was some kind of ritual.”
Aelstrom: “And you shut the bastards down, did you? Ha! You are here a short time and already vanquishing the Corrupted! A feat fit for legend.”
Urda: “Let’s not get ahead of ourselves. This is a victory, but we must recognize this is not going to be an isolated occurrence.”
Player: “You think there are more?”
Urda: “Yes. I have seen this before… more than once. When Corrupted come in such numbers, it is a portent for dark times.”
Urda: “In the past, an avatar has risen and led the Corrupted in a campaign to consume all of Aeternum. No souls are safe from their reach.”
Player: “I might have met her…”
Urda: “If you had, it is unlikely you would be here. But make no mistake, an avatar is coming, and we must warn the nearby towns.”
Player: “I can take the message.”
Urda: “That would be for the best. There have been some misunderstandings between Aelstrom and the town guard in the past. Besides, he likes it here.”
Aelstrom: “My friend, your valor is deserving of a reward. Follow the road to town, warn them, and then get a cup of mead at the tavern. Ha ha ha—you earned it!”

Quest Turn-in

Ser Payne Bennett: “Welcome to Prydwen, traveler! The greatest kingdom on Aeternum… well, to be precise, it’s a regency, currently, but that will change!”
Ser Payne Bennett: “Have you come from the beach, then? We’ve had disturbing reports. Not just the self-proclaimed king squatting down there… but something even worse.”
Player: “You mean the Corrupted?”
Ser Payne Bennett: “So it’s true, then? God’s ears! Why must every day bring such foul tidings! Derelict knights, greedy farmers… it never ends. And now the Corrupted, too.”
