"And hello to you traveler. Beyond this gate lies the Shadeweavers Thicket. You had best go armed. for the [Claw Beasts] have been attacking merchants regularly."

"A true horror. they are mindless predators and quite large to boot. These beasts have massive razor sharp teeth that can rip your arm off cleanly."

"Oh this old shield does fine, but I guess if Barkhem needs to break in a new apprentice, it does have some dings in it. Thank you, my friend."

"Tip-top work! Barkhem has done well by himself choosing you for an apprentice."
