Dialogue

For historical dialogue, see: Worker/dialogue

In Divinity's Reach

Prices are rising everywhere. It's the drop-off in supply. The fewer products in circulation, the more they can change.

Why are there fewer products?

Civilization as we know it is disintegrating. The dragons have thrown a wrench in the works. Trade routes are blocked, merchants are dead, and crafters are fighting instead of crafting.

I see.

I see.

In the Shaemoor Fields during Prevent the bandits from blowing up the water pipes

Why can't they just leave us alone?

Good-bye.

Shhhhh! They'll see me unless you go away.

Fine.

During Stop the bandit thief from stealing the pumphouse blueprints

The bandits broke in and took the blueprints for the pump station! We need help getting them back.

Show me where they went!

Ask someone else. I'm busy.

At Dalin's Pumping Station

This place is a real pipe dream, isn't it?

Har har. Good day.

I can't wait to go home. Got some grub pie waiting for me.

Good-bye.

At the Western Divinity Dam during Drive the harpy flock from the dam

The harpies attacked out of nowhere! We're not soldiers. Please help us!

I'll see what I can do.

In The Wrecking Yard

I'm not going back into that yard. I've had enough work for today.

You're so lazy, even your tail is disgusted with you! Get back to work! (If charr)

How can you be so lazy? Get back to work!

This is none of my business.

In Garrenhoff

Sit back, and let the elementals take care of everything.

Good-bye.

I love making deliveries to this town. You just pull into port, and let Isgarren's elementals do the work. Normally we unload everything ourselves while defending against attackers.

Good-bye.

In the Dragonrot Domains

Grab a pickaxe or get out of the way.

Why?

Where you born yesterday? Look around you. All this ore's branded, and we're going to keep digging it out until we figure out how deep the Brand goes. The more you know, the better armed you are.

Interesting point.

You don't look like a miner.

What's it to you? I'm the only one here who's always been a miner. Can't make weapons without ore. and this work's even more important then that.

How so? (Same as above)

Then you should get back to it.

I'll get out of the way.

At the Infernal Cape

Greetings, illustrious friend of Taimi.

Hello. What are you doing out here?

Research, of course. Taimi enlisted some of us to spearhead this expedition. We're the New Novus Krewe. It's all under wraps, though, so don't make a peep about it. There are ears—big ears—everywhere.

I'm used to big ears.

I can imagine. We're mostly worried about Phlunt. His people are here too, and you know anything they overhear will get back to him.

I understand.

Hello. No time to talk. I'll be back.

Greetings on behalf of Taimi's krewe.

Looks like Taimi's moving up in the world.

Taimi's the best! She handpicked me—and the others—to participate in this world-changing research. We're calling ourselves the New Novus Krewe. Historic!

Yes. Monumental.

Hello. No time to talk. I'll be back.

Hey! You're a living legend. Congrats on the living part.

Thanks. What can you tell me about the Destroyers you've encountered here?

I'll put it in simple language for you. Completely unexpected. Boggles the mind. The magic levels here are off the charts. This is ground-breaking work we're doing.

I look forward to the final report. Thanks.

Hello. No time to talk. I'll be back.

At the Doric Lumberyard

It's my day off, so I'm just staying around the camp while others have to work. Hah!

How have you all been coping since the attack?

Not too bad, fortunately for us. None of us live in the area. We just use our campsite during our extended shifts. We were extremely lucky to not be harmed in the blast. Even our equipment survived.

Talk about bad timing.

Tell me about it. But we're alive, our gear's intact, and there's plenty of wood to harvest. Siege aside—and that's a big aside—we're still golden.

Good luck to you.

I'm glad to here that. Stay safe.

A day off must be nice. I envy you.

On the shore of Risen Lowlands

Don't expect me to know about anything. I'm just a worker.

Why are you here?

The krewe I work for is looking for previously undiscovered medicinal plants. This place is a botanist's dream.

I see. Well, good luck.

I need to go. Good day to you.

Hey, Commander. I've been here for a while, and I haven't seen a single Pact soldier. You care to explain that?

I don't speak for them, but I'll guess they've been busy.

Busy staying safe and sound in their cities. It figures it would be regular citizens who finally rescued Orr.

I don't have time to argue with you. Good day.

I need to go. Good day to you.

At this rate, our supplies will run out before we're done. There's no food here. No potable water. What are we to do?

Send for supplies?

Only if I go too. I'm not getting stuck here without a ride home.

I need to go. Good day to you.

I need to go. Good day to you.

Quotes

At the Infernal Cape

(When interacting with female asura)

Worker: Taimi may find this interesting. I'll have to send her my reports.

Worker: This area is teeming with potential discoveries. I love it!

Worker: And here I thought destroyers couldn't get any more horrifying.

Worker: Is there anywhere on this smoldering crater of an island the skritt won't follow me?

Worker: Hmm. If we cross-reference the readings here with the ones over at... I wonder.

Worker: "Welcome to the Fire Islands! Enjoy your stay. Please don't feed the destroyers."

Worker: "Shoes and socks optional. Swords and rifles required."

Worker: Who knows? Maybe years from now this'll be a resort. What could go wrong?

(When interacting with male asura)

Worker: At least it's not Orr. (shudder)

Worker: Ugh. My skin itches. And my mouth tastes like sulfur!

Worker: The next krewe I join will be someplace nicer than this festering boil of an island.

Worker: And here I thought fieldwork would be better than a desk job. Phlunt's probably cackling in his oversized recliner right now.

Worker: We need more data for comparison. Our work is far from done.

Worker: I still can't quite figure out how the destroyers are taking on other aspects.

Worker: I hope the magic levels stabilize. I'm worried of what might happen if they don't.

Worker: "Hi, Mom! No, that's just the smell of the island. Yes, I already showered today."

Notes

Anomaly:

One of the workers in Dalin's Pumping Station has a permanently redundant dialogue, referencing a broken event.
