Lore & Dialog
Virindi Observer "only my presence here holds the renegades at bay,"

As [Player Name] deals the fatal blow to the Virindi Observer, it shrieks in the minds of all around, "Human fools! You are more witless than can be imagined! This priveleged presence was the only which held the renegades back!"

Virindi Shopkeepers Virindi Observer tells you, "A pleasant day, is it not, fellow human? The vendors have not been... rude, have they?" Virindi Observer tells you, "Remain peaceable, human. Move along. Nothing to see here." Virindi Observer says, "Tainted fools and renegades... their ambition will rip further holes in our unity..."

Virindi Leather Crafter tells you, "This may be the most appallingly distasteful occupation I have been forced to take. I can treat animal hides for you and turn them into the apparel you humans insist upon wearing." Virindi Leather Crafter tells you, "The Observer insists upon this sham charade... Feel lucky I do not flay the wrapping from your flesh and turn you into a dull grey coat. Nevertheless... here is your item, human."

Virindi Ivory Crafter tells you, "The inanity of my task is almost... amusing. If you possess teeth or horns from the lesser creatures of this island, I can make them into things you humans find useful."

Virindi Armorer tells you, "Welcome to our shop, human. You may exchange pyreal coins for martial apparel with me." Virindi Armorer tells you, "Have a pleasant day. Enjoy your existence while you can."

Virindi Weaponsmith tells you, "Welcome to our shop, human. I will sell you the crude metal tools that pass for weaponry among your benighted kind." Virindi Weaponsmith tells you, "Have a pleasant day. Do not be at all apprehensive."

Virindi Bowyer tells you, "These collections of wood and string are most curious... Have you no magic with which to strike from afar?" Virindi Bowyer tells you, "Have a pleasant day. Worry not. We mean you no harm."

Virindi Scribe tells you, "I reside now in a stone-and-earth hut, selling items made from some crudity you call "paper." Appalling. But what can I do for you?" Virindi Scribe tells you, "Have a pleasant day."

Virindi Healer tells you, "Please be at ease in this human hovel. You will come to no harm." Virindi Healer tells you, "Have a pleasant day. Just remember, bandages will only get you so far..."

Virindi Barkeeper tells you, "You humans seem to find these foodstuffs palatable."

Virindi Grocer tells you, "Greetings, human. Have you come to trade goods for pyreal coins?" Virindi Grocer tells you, "Have a pleasant day."

Virindi Jeweler tells you, "I sell gems and jewelry here, human. I appreciate the facets of a fine gem, but your jewelry is distressingly plain."

Kidnapped NPCs in the Panopticon dungeon Sang Nen-Kai tells you, "My shop... Where is my shop?"

Berkholt the Burly tells you, "Should've stayed in Arwic..."

Elliamr Jorning tells you, "I used to heal... But I cannot awaken..."

Thiuda the Sharp-Eyed tells you, "Never... In all my campaigns..."

Muhiza bint Murqidh tells you, "Words... Are... Meaningless..."

Sung Wenxio tells you, "Servitude... Wretched..."

Ivory Crafter tells you, "Teeth and bones, teeth and bones..."

Nihara bint Umar tells you, "Not a puppet..."

Town Crier tells you, "What news... Traveler?"

Leather Crafters tells you, "Flesh... Is meaningless."

Daryam ibn Zuband tells you, "I like the pretty lights..."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Right, then. What'd I tell you? No one believed me... Now, do you see? I was right all along! Applesauce, I said!" Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "The Observer in town's actually a reasonable guy. Or entity. Whatever they call themselves." Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "You talked to the other guys around here? They seen, I don't know, a little dull lately." Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "There's a Director somewhere around here who's the cause of all this mess." Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I tried talking to that Director around here. Names himself Adirrred. He makes no sense, talking about "privileged self" and posts and structures."
