Baelin Xir-Rixoan, Chardok

"Pfft mortal what is it that you want? I have nothing to say to those unlike me, I wish to be left alone so please leave me be to my [fortress]."

"I do not know why I am tolerating your council but for some reason I feel you can be of some use to me besides having your skull as a paperweight. I have been trapped in this dwelling for ages and I seek someone that will help me be freed of this [mystical prison]."

"There are many unseen shackles that confine me to this room. They were first placed upon me years ago for my cannibalistic tendencies. You see I was the leader of one of the most powerful religious sects of the di`zok. I conducted many [ceremonies] in our place of worship and not many were in approval of the royal di`zok family."

"Many of our sacrifices took place with our most unfortunate captives and there was never one that went before the knife that was a member of the brood but somehow it got out that we were sacrificing one of our own kind and for that I was sentenced to these halls never to be seen again. I do however think that you could help me [escape] if you chose to."

"I truly do not believe what I am hearing but for some reason I feel that I should trust you. I am going to ask you to return me four pieces of my staff that were lost after I departed the home of the di`zok. I lost many of them fighting to break free from the guards that were ordered to capture me. If you would [return these staff pieces] I can then reconstruct my staff and use it to counteract the barrier surrounding my quarters."

"Very well ______, begin your search now and do not cease until you have found the four pieces. I feel that they must be somewhere in these haunted halls because it was here where my staff broke apart."

"There are some gems missing from these pieces, they were magically infused into the oak and I do not know how they disappeared but I cannot conduct my magics with my staff being incomplete. If you [wish to help] me further then I will need you to obtain them."

"You have come this far now ______, I certainly hope you will not let me down. Please seek out my 4 gems in these cursed halls. When you have gathered the 4 glimmering gems combine them in my gem kit and return the result of your work to me."

"These are indeed the pieces that I seek. It is amazing that you were able to obtain these staff pieces and I am very grateful. Unfortunately there is a [problem]."

"Mortal, I am in your debt. Take this. I will now be free!"
