Ambient dialogue[edit]

Astral Ward Protector (1): Everything was...damp and warm? Her voice was so piercing; my head is still... (groans)
Astral Ward Protector (2): We don't have to talk about it if you're not ready.
Astral Ward Protector (1): There was so much blood on my hands when I woke up. Was it...was it mine? Did I hurt anyone?
By the northeastern exit
Astral Ward Protector: Our medics can help if the height is making you uneasy.
By Skyscale Stables
Astral Ward Skirmisher: Mr. Wrench, is that you?
Astral Ward Foot Soldier Gormal: Well fed and rested. Not a scratch on her.
Mr. Wrench: (chirps)
Astral Ward Skirmisher: How you doing, girl? Did you keep the tower safe all on your own?
Astral Ward Foot Soldier Gormal: Managed to wiggle her way into the food stores. Had a bit of a bellyache, but no harm.
Astral Ward Skirmisher: Of course you did.
By second to last southwestern exit, north from Skyscale Stables
Scholar of Balance: I do wonder, sometimes... Had Vass and Akeem lived, how do you think we'd be faring right now?
Scholar of Balance Mentor: I don't think we can know. It was likely their residual energies following death that allowed Isgarren to expel the Kryptis.
Scholar of Balance: Well, the dragons played their own role in destabilizing the magical ecosystem. That could've affected it...
Scholar of Balance: But if Vass and Akeem survived, maybe they could've killed Eparch. This war would've been prevented—many wars would have.
Scholar of Balance Mentor: There he is. Lyhr will beam with pride when he sees your debate prowess this refined.
Scholar of Balance: Do you think so...? I'm still not sure about that ending—the Elder Dragons are such a challenging variable.
By the northwestern exit
Corporal Kiona: Greetings, Wayfinder.
By a shadowy door
Captive behind Door: As my shackles weaken, I hear the song of every living Tyrian...waiting for my claws to pierce tender flesh.
Astral Ward Apprentice Bleutuft: Uh huh. Oh, yeah?
Captive behind Door: Just you wait, little shrub. The world will crumble under the darkness of my eclipse. We will rise...!
Astral Ward Apprentice Bleutuft: And there. All done. Should keep you still for another hundred years.
Captive behind Door: Vile creature! When I wake again, your leaves will be coated in the blood of your loved ones!
Captive behind Door: Send me back to the Mad Realm. At least the company was more exciting.
