Hi person checking this page! I'm just a nice little page used for testing stuff before I make the actual changes!

Dialogue

To human nobility

Splendid to meet you! I so rarely run into people of quality traveling through here. I hope you can find some comfort in this ramshackle little burgh.

I'm very much enjoying my stay. You have such a lovely town.

Perhaps. It's better than sleeping in dirt. At least the walls keep out most of the centaurs. Those filthy animals are exhausting to all of us.

Have the centaurs attacked you?

Yes. I lost my boy two years ago to the centaur raids. He was a strong and promising young man, a true testament to his bloodline as a descendant of Ascalonian nobility.

I'm sorry for your loss.

That is a tragedy.

I've seen better

Well said. This place doesn't hold a candle to the human cities of old. But our time will come again. My ancestors held vast amounts of land. One day, we'll control that land again.

Wait, don't the charr hold that land now?

It doesn't matter what those warmongers and murderers think. When the time comes, Ascalon will be ours again. We can bring humanity back to its rightful place in Tyria.

I'm not sure about that.

Sounds like a tall order. Good luck with that.

Do many travelers come through here?

Yes, mostly the unwashed and uncouth variety. With my wife away in Hoelbrak, I long for intelligent conversation now and again.

Why is your wife in Hoelbrak?

She's shopping for antiquities. My Lady Sara certainly has a neye for value. I'm sure she'll come back more than successful.

I'm sure she will.

Nice talking to you.

Sorry, I don't have time to talk right now.

To charr

Oh...hrm. Tell me, will your stay be long?

I think I may just settle down here. Maybe bring some axe-wielding friends.

That would be quite unfortunate. I think you'll find this town...less than hospitable to your kind.

Keep it up. I'll show you less than hospitable.

Mind your manners, kitty. There's a treaty on, remember? Begone now. That's a good animal.

Just keep your distance, mouse.

I'm done dealing with your kind.

Not long. Just passing through.

Oh, how splendid. Safe journeys.

Thanks.

I think I get the point.

To others

Yes? What is it?

Just curious. Who are you?

I am Lord Penley Marduke, descendant of the noblemen of King Adelbern's court and husband to Lady Sarah Marduke. I am the owner of this fine estate where you find yourself.

Where's Lady Marduke?

Oh, she's traveling abroad to purchase antiquities in order to bring some panache to this squalid hut. Judging from your appearance, style is something you don't appear to be familiar with. Exuse me.

Got it. Good-bye.

Okay, then.

Just passing through, thanks.

Kitten.

U WOT M8?

Just some copy pasted stuff so I can learn. :3

To non-norn characters

Are you my escort? I was told by a large, smelly norn to wait here for someone to take me to my quarters. My slippers are getting wet, and my feet are freezing.

No, I'm not your escort. Why are you here?

I'm here on a diplomatic mission for Her Majesty, Queen Jennah of Kryta. I must confess that I've been feeling rather like a bit of gold among lumps of coal, though. These norn live so roughly.

The world is a rough place.

Not for people like me. My husband and I will be leaving as soon as we've finished trying to reason with these uncivilized norn.

Good luck and safe journey.

You fit right in here. Good-bye.

I have to go.

To norn characters

Oh, hello! Are you my escort? You look like you know your way around. I'm supposed to be meeting with your esteemed Knut Whitebear today.

I'm not your escort. Who are you?

I'm Sarah Marduke of Divinity's Reach. My queen sent me to meet with Mr. Whitebear and discuss the future relationship of our two races.

Oh, to be a fly on that wall. Good luck.

Find someone else to help you, human.

To human nobility

Why hello. You're <Character name>, aren't you? You're an awfully long way from home. I'm Sarah of the Divinity's Reach noble Marduke family. What a small world.

Indeed. What brings you all the way out here?

I'm here on a diplomatic mission for Her Majesty. I must confess that I've been feeling rather like a bit of gold among lumps of coal, though. These norn live so roughly.

It takes some getting used to.

At first, I found them quaint, but the shine has worn off. Knut Whitebear is a barbarian, and don't get me started on his sons. These Wolfborn do not compare to our Seraph.

I must go, my lady. Enjoy your stay.

I must go, my lady. Enjoy your stay.

I must go, my lady. Enjoy your stay.

Hear my words, child. Repent and be saved! Your wasteful existence in this world will be at an end soon. I am a messenger, sent to impart this news so you may be safe in Grenth's embrace.

Can't you see you're scaring these good people?

They need to be afraid. Fear will bring them to the truth. They must beg the gods for forgiveness. Their fear will be the conduit of their prayers and the link to their salvation.

That's despicable.

I don't need your insanity.

You poor, blind soul. Of course, you need salvation. Do not squander this opportunity like so many before you. The sand is draining from the hourglass, my child. Your time grows short.

Are you threatening me?

Your blasphemed existence is the threat. Your soul is in jeopardy without the gods' blessing. If you do not ask for forgiveness, your soul will wither and die in the Mists.

You're insane. Leave me alone.

I'm leaving.

I'm good. Thanks.
