Notes

Dialog

Aruq ibn Balthar tells you, "Aha! A doughty Derethian warrior! You may be just the person to help me here... There is a strange new fortified location in the Direlands, guarded by fearsome Gotrok Lugians! It is quite strange to see renegades outside their normal bailiwick in the southern mountains, and our scouts report that these monsters are even more powerful than the others of their ilk that we have previously surveyed."

Aruq ibn Balthar tells you, "We suspect, based on geomantic emanations from that location, that they are working at the behest of rebel Virindi again, but we need an intrepid adventurer such as yourself to personally infiltrate the installation and gather intelligence. Could you do this for us? Journey to the depths of the new Gotrok fortress in the Direlands at 48.7S, 68.9W and bring back whatever message shards you can find. I would be in your debt, and you would not go unrewarded."

Aruq ibn Balthar tells you, "I must have misplaced my notes... Did I not already ask you investigate the strange facility at 48.7S, 68.9W and bring me whatever intelligence you gather?"

Aruq ibn Balthar tells you, "I am sorry! Advanced as I am in my research, I do not have the knowledge or even the anatomical modifications necessary to translate this. You have gone through so much trouble already to retrieve this shard from the Virindi in that mysterious fortress. Could you be a dear and bring it to Diyas al-Yat up on the hill and have him translate it? You'll receive your reward when I have his written translation."

Aruq ibn Balthar tells you, "Good work, my friend! I knew I could count on you!"

Aruq ibn Balthar tells you, "Zounds! What a fell plot the rebel Virindi are hatching here! I am glad you were able to escape with this critical intelligence. I will send it on to my superiors on the Royal Council. No doubt they will dispatch scouts as soon as possible to comb the lands for these Nexuses they speak of. I imagine the secret societies will be quite interested in this as well... But here, here is your reward. It's something a previous visitor left here, I think you may find it useful."

Aruq ibn Balthar tells you, "On further consideration, I should also give you a copy of this translation, for your own records... And perhaps you can help spread the word, if you belong to a secret society, that the Virindi rebels are rising to threaten Dereth again!"
