Ambient dialogue

Priory Scholar: Do you have time for a tricky translation?

Priory Explorer: I’m in between assignments. What do you have for me?

Priory Scholar: A recently unearthed account of the battle against the Great Destroyer.

Priory Explorer: Intriguing. That might contain a wealth of knowledge. What’s the problem?

Priory Scholar: It appears to be a mishmash of dwarven and old Ascalonian.

Priory Historian: (sneeze) (sneeze) (sneeze) Ooh. There must be a cat nearby.

Priory Scholar: Why is everything here written in Krytan? All those loops and swirls make my hands ache.

Historian Tribb: The humans say it's because Krytan is the most universal language.

Priory Scholar: How can it be universal? It only has one word for "hunt."

Priory Explorer (1): My research seems to be heading into a forbidden area.

Priory Explorer (2): You must follow the trail where it leads. You never know where the answer may lie.

Priory Explorer (1): I agree. We don’t have the luxury to be squeamish, but I wonder if this is a matter for the Archons.

Priory Explorer (2): If your prey can turn on us all, then you should proceed carefully.

Priory Explorer (1): What are you working on these days?

Priory Explorer (2): My headmaster has me researching dragon vulnerabilities. You?

Priory Explorer (1): I'm studying the strengths of different weapons against the dragons.

Priory Explorer (2): Hmm. We should probably pool our data.

Priory Cook: Time for a break.

Priory Historian: It's appreciated.
