Dialogue

This was once Rata Sum's primary golem foundry. My krewe is scouring the site for useful artifacts, as are the Inquest. You're not a spy are you? Hmm. Your appearance doesn't suggest it.

(if you have Data Crystals in your inventory)

I found these Inquest data crystals.

Oh! These data crystals will help us decipher the Inquest's plans. Thank you!

Can I ask about something else?

You have a question?

What are you salvaging? (same as "What exactly are you looking for?" below)

What is this place? (same as "Tell me more about this place" below)

Never mind. Good-bye.

See you later.

Inquest? Spies?

Ah, I'm afraid so. They have a hidden lab nearby, and send agents to infiltrate my krewe. Think you could root them out for me? It would also bring me great pleasure if you could disrupt their lab.

Sounds easy. Is there anything else I should know?

If you get into the Inquest's lab, nab their data crystals. That'll help us figure out what they're up to.

Got it. Is there anything I can do around this site?

My team has been infiltrated by Inquest spies disguised as salvage specialists. Weed them out, will you?

You can count on me.

Okay, I'll see what I can do.

Leave it to me.

Tell me more about this place.

This site contains old golem parts and other items, mostly buried. Foundry workers once dumped their refuse here.

Why did the foundry close down?

Politics. Now each golem krewe has its own lab. It's easier to protect their secrets that way.

There was something else I wanted to ask.

I see. Makes sense.

That explains the smell.

What exactly are you looking for?

Old, forgotten junk for a project of mine. I can't imagine why the Inquest is interested in the site.

There's something you're not telling me.

True. There is, in fact, something valuable here. Help keep the Inquest away while we retrieve it, and I'll share it with you.

What do you need me to do, exactly?

Up a hill to the south of here is an Inquest lab. Throw a little mayhem their way, it'll keep them busy.

What can I do to set them back? (Same as "Sounds easy. Is there anything..." above)

Sounds fun.

You've got a deal.

Interesting. See you later.

I see. Good luck.

I fear some of my salvage specialists have been taken by the Inquest. Can you help extract them from captivity?

Sure. Do you have any idea where the Inquest might have taken them?

Somewhere inside their lab, to the south. Please, bring them back soon! (starts Destroy the cage control nodes to free the salvage specialists)

No worries. I'll be back with your krewe members before you know it.

I can't help right now, but I need to ask you something.

You have a question?

What are you salvaging? (same as "What exactly are you looking for?" below)

What is this place? (Same as "Tell me more about this place." above)

That explains the smell.

I found these Inquest data crystals. (Same as above)

Sorry, I can't. Good luck.

You've done well at bothering the Inquest! We've yet to unearth anything of value here, but I'm still hopeful.

What are you selling?

Good luck!
