Dialogue

After Kill the bears rampaging around Victor's Point and until the event chain starts again.

Ah, a customer! How much would you like?

Let's see what you've got.

How much of what?

Smoked dolyak meat. It's delicious, I assure you!

What're you asking for it?

Maybe later.

None right now.

During Collect dolyak meat for Gareth

Oh, Bear help me. Look, I don't like asking people for help with my job, but I'm tied up here. If you hunt some meat for me, I'll make it worth your while.

Is this what you're looking for?

Terrific. I haven’t seen such epic butchery since my brother’s wedding reception. Ah, that was a fun night.

Okay.

What's the problem?

There are a lot of hostile creatures around, and I worry that my kids will get into trouble if they aren't kept busy. I'd appreciate it if you could cull the local area of dangerous creatures. I could also use a hand with hunting.

Hunting?

I need fresh dolyak meat for my smokehouse. Kill some of the dolyak nearby and bring back the best flanks you can. I'm not wild about this, but I'll reward you.

Why aren't you happy about this?

I hate having others make my kills. It's not how I was raised. If I could do it, I would, but my mate changed things this morning.

What happened with your mate?

My mate left early this morning on a journey of her own. I need to watch the kids until she comes home. It keeps me from hunting animals for the smokehouse.

Aren't you mad at her for leaving?

What? No! I've done it before. She's out making her legacy. She'll be home one day. It might take a while, but she'll come home with scars, stories, and trophies.

So, how can I help you? (Same as "Hunting?" above)

So, bring your kids hunting with you.

Oh Bear's fur, no. last time they went hunting, my mate and I barely brought them back alive. We'll need to train them one at a time. With her gone, hunting is off.

How can I help you? (Same as "Hunting?" above)

I have other plans.

I'll watch your kids. Go ahead and hunt.

Thanks, but my kids can be a crazed wolf pack. The last stranger who watched them ended up losing his right foot. We found it on the roof a week later.

How can I help you? (Same as "Hunting?" above)

I think I'll be going.

Oh, a Smokehouse?

Yes! I have an old family recipe that makes the most delicious jerky you'll ever taste. It'll keep forever and still be full of flavor. I got the smokehouse set up. I just need fresh meat.

How can I help you? (Same as "Hunting?" above)

Not interested.

Why can't you hunt? (Same as "What happened with your mate?" above)

Got it. I'll be back with your meat soon.

I'm not interested in doing your work.

After Collect dolyak meat for Gareth

If you've come for some delicious smoked meats, I can't help you.

What's the problem?

My mate just left to make her legend. I love her, but now I got to watch the kids before they burn the lodge down. I can't hunt for meat, so the smoke house is colder than Jormag's rump.

Why can't you take them on the hunt?

Yeah, one at a time. You take that wild gaggle out alone and you'll end up chasing after them more than putting your axe in your prey.

You said something about smoked meat?

Oh, yeah. It's an old family recipe. You can carry it in your pack for months, but it's still full of flavor. I finally got the smokehouse set up, but I'm stuck here shorthanded,

Maybe I can help you out?

I'm used to doing things on my own. Having others make my kills doesn't sit right, but maybe we can work out a trade. Let me think about this.

Got it.

Maybe I can help you out.

Not my problem.

Hold on, what's this about smoked meats? (Same as "Oh, yeah. It's an old family..." above)

Take care.

During Kill Longshanks for Jafri

Won't be long before the meat is smoked. Now I just need something that'll attract customers. A massive animal head mounted over the smokehouse would grab the eye.

Why don't you get it yourself?.

I have too much to do here. If I left to hunt... ugh, it'd be a disaster.

Got it.

Got it.

During Kill the bears rampaging around Victor's Point

Can't talk now. I'll handle Bear's wayward children here. You stop any that get past me.

Got it.
