Here all the text I've found on some NPC.
First, the 4 npc after the 2 first Gargoyles :
[Mon Aug 11 11:46:17 2003] Ferrin Q`Nyil regards you
indifferently -- he appears to be quite formidable.
[Mon Aug 11 11:46:20 2003] You say, 'Hail, Ferrin Q`Nyil'
[Mon Aug 11 11:46:20 2003] Ferrin Q`Nyil says 'Fare thee well,
stouthearted adventurer. I would welcome you to this place,
yet I feel that a welcome is not quite deserving of the [fate]
in store for you. I know there was no welcome for me when I
first ventured to this place, and look at me now. I am nothing
but a frail, ghostly figure of what I once was.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:46:26 2003] You say, 'what fate ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:46:27 2003] Ferrin Q`Nyil says, 'I may look as
though I am healthy and vibrant, though your eyes deceive
you.' Ferrin chuckles. 'It has been so long since I was
imprisoned here, I cannot tell you when it was. To me it seems
like only yesterday, but I know deep down that time does not
pass for me any more. I, like you, thought that the intrigue
and mystery of this great lair was second only to the
treasures that lay within. When I arrived however, I found not
a lair, but a massive tomb whose occupants were meant to keep
a very large, and very powerful [beast] within.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:46:48 2003] You say, 'what beast ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:46:48 2003] Ferrin Q`Nyil says 'Time has told
us that a great many things are unexplainable, and even less
understood. Though I don't know the entire story, it comes to
bear that long ago, there was a great council of [elders].
These elders decreed what could and could not be done, for the
benefit of their kind. Certain things were done to prevent bad
things. . . or bad creatures from being created. Other things
were done to prohibit the slaying of those of the same
bloodline.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:47:24 2003] You say, 'what elders ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:47:25 2003] Ferrin Q`Nyil says 'The council of
elder dragons. Truly, theirs is a majestic, powerful and
battle worn species. The elders had decreed that no two
dragons of opposing elements would be allowed to mate. No
explanation had been given, though I believe I know the reason
why it was given. Despite the decree, a pair of elemental
dragons slipped away to remote areas of Norrath and mated, and
the creation of a great prismatic dragon took place. And that
is the beast, strewn of opalescent scales, headstrong and a
leader in his own right. It was he that this tomb was
entrusted to keep held, forever. Alas, that was not meant to
be, as more and more, cunning [travelers] like you would make
their way further and further into the lair.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:47:47 2003] You say, 'what travelers ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:47:48 2003] Ferrin Q`Nyil chuckles. 'You're
looking at one right now, Nilshar. I was one of the first to
make my way into the depths of this forsaken lair. My little
gnomish friend here was also one of the earliest adventurers
to peruse the contents of this massive warren. But there have
been many more that have traversed these areas, all to little
or no avail, most perishing at the hands of the mighty
[automatons] throughout.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:47:54 2003] You say, 'what automatons ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:47:55 2003] Ferrin Q`Nyil says 'Well, you
probably encountered one or two of them before you found us
here. They are the beasts that were initially created to keep
people like us out so that the prismatic dragon wouldn't be
awakened from his [eternal slumber]. In recent times, they
have been placed here by the four ancients to keep people away
from the evil that lay beyond. They are made of local velium
and ice, carved from the creative minds of immortals. They
have a singular consciousness, to do as their master bids. . .
and to that truth, they hold steady.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:48:28 2003] You say, 'what eternal slumber ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:48:29 2003] Ferrin Q`Nyil says 'Alas I am not
really the person to explain that bit of history to you. You
might see if any of my. . . companions. . . have any insight
into the slumber that the prismatic beast undertook. In any
case, I bid you well, young mortal, and hope that you do not
partake in the same shortcomings that I did.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:48:58 2003] You say, 'Hail, Bittles the Lost'
[Mon Aug 11 11:48:58 2003] Bittles the Lost says 'Eh, hrm?
Who're you? Found yer way in here, 'ave ya? Not the brightest
idea in the world, ya know. I hope you weren't planning on
going any further, because that would really be on the level
of those twerps that freed that [shiny beast] in the first
place.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:49:06 2003] You say, 'what shiny beast ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:49:06 2003] Bittles the Lost says 'Ya know that
story about how those two dragons got together and made that
premzatica dragon?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:49:06 2003] Ferrin Q`Nyil says 'Prismatic, you
goof.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:49:06 2003] Bittles the Lost says 'Yar,
whate'er. Anyway, that bugger got made an' he went wild all
over Velious, making demands and actin' all proud and powerful
and things like that. Well, he decided he wanted ta have a
nice big home in the middle of the mountain. And you know
what? That's what he did! Yer standin' in the middle of his
lair. Well after he [went crazy], some of those other
dragon-folk decided it would be good ta put him in here and
put him ta sleep for all eternity. [Four] of 'em kept him
sleepin' and made sure that no one, such as yerself, could get
in here ta wake him up.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:49:18 2003] You say, 'who went crazy ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:49:27 2003] You say, 'went crazy ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:49:30 2003] You say, 'what shiny beast ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:49:30 2003] Bittles the Lost says 'Ya know that
story about how those two dragons got together and made that
premzatica dragon?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:49:30 2003] Ferrin Q`Nyil says 'Prismatic, you
goof.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:49:30 2003] Bittles the Lost says 'Yar,
whate'er. Anyway, that bugger got made an' he went wild all
over Velious, making demands and actin' all proud and powerful
and things like that. Well, he decided he wanted ta have a
nice big home in the middle of the mountain. And you know
what? That's what he did! Yer standin' in the middle of his
lair. Well after he [went crazy], some of those other
dragon-folk decided it would be good ta put him in here and
put him ta sleep for all eternity. [Four] of 'em kept him
sleepin' and made sure that no one, such as yerself, could get
in here ta wake him up.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:49:35 2003] You say, 'went crazy ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:49:39 2003] You say, 'who went crazy ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:49:50 2003] You say, 'what went crazy ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:49:53 2003] You say, 'what four ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:49:54 2003] Bittles the Lost says 'Them thar
four warders. They were the most powerful elemental dragons of
their time, and kept that sleeping fella asleep for quite some
long time. Names of Nanzata, Tukaarak, Hraashna, and Ventani,
if'n my mind serves me correct-like. When they started here,
they had some other big-time dragon create the big ice
creatures all over the place -- the golems, don't ya know? In
any case, they upped and got kilt by some folks like you a
while back, causing all kinds of panic and havoc. The ice guys
were dismantled by the [new inhabitants] of this here lair and
reassembled to serve them. Not that it really matters to me, I
got lost here anyway and look what happened ta me!'
[Mon Aug 11 11:50:09 2003] You say, 'what new inhabitants ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:50:09 2003] Bittles the Lost says 'Why the
ancients of course! They just kinda cropped up when that big
shiny fella was awakened by those other people. Some thought
that those four warders were trouble, but believe me, they're
like drakelings in comparison. Kal or Jobana over here might
know more about them than I do, I'm just a lost little gnome
with no where to go.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:50:45 2003] You say, 'Hail, Jobana Du`Ata'
[Mon Aug 11 11:50:45 2003] Jobana Du`Ata looks at you with a
most dismal look in her eyes. 'Your kind have returned once
again. I knew this day would come, yet hoped that perhaps
there would be no further clashing in this tomb. I was
mistaken, for here you are. The great sleeping beast has
already been released unto the world to wreak havoc, cause
destruction and attempt to take back what he has lost, so what
further purpose could you have for coming here? Perhaps you
are soul hunting, searching for those of us lost in here years
ago, long since forgotten by any mortal family we may have
had. Or perhaps you are searching for the [ancient dragons]
that inhabit this lair.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:50:58 2003] You say, 'what ancient dragon ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:50:59 2003] Jobana Du`Ata says 'The ancients
were long ago part of the following that the mighty prismatic
lord had before he was imprisoned here, in his own dwelling.
Kildrukaun, oldest and wisest of them had at first spoken out
against the creation of a prismatic dragon, claiming that
Veeshan herself would have to approve of such a creation and
that it would never take place. When it did take place
however, and the dragon that never would exist was created, he
traded his beliefs for those of new ones, claiming that this
new prismatic dragon was part of a prophecy from Veeshan. He
aptly called this prismatic dragon [Kerafyrm], or Prophetic
Savior and began this new wonder's tutelage into greatness.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:51:27 2003] You say, 'who is Kerafyrm'
[Mon Aug 11 11:51:28 2003] Jobana Du`Ata says 'The majestic
beast grew quickly, learning much and gaining great power in
short time. He expanded his knowledge and his [influence],
pushing the dragons into a kind of new era, where dragons
would be the ultimate power on the planet once again. Many
were left in a wake of fright behind Kerafyrm, believing that
he may be too powerful for his own good, yet fearing that if
they spoke out against him in this time, they would be
condemned in some horrible way.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:51:40 2003] You say, 'what influence ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:51:41 2003] Jobana Du`Ata says 'Imagine a being
with such power that he was unstoppable in battle. Imagine
that this same creature held a loathing for all creatures not
of dragon kin. Imagine also that this creature was not born
into this deep rooted, dark hatred of the species, and that as
he grew older, wiser and more powerful, he came to be aware of
his powers and of the trying issues that kept his people back.
This was the beast that was Kerafyrm, and as he grew in power,
so too did his word. After some time, that which Kerafyrm
spoke became law to the lands, and he usurped even the power
and influence of the high council. What was once a time of
might and strength through his word turned into a constant
[chafe] against the necks of dragonkind.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:51:51 2003] You say, 'what chafe ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:51:51 2003] Jobana Du`Ata says 'I spoke of the
loathing he held for those not of dragon kin. However, this is
not entirely accurate. In the beginning, he simply sought to
make dragonkind the most powerful of all species on Norrath.
However there was a dark and definite itch within the
brilliant mind of Kerafyrm and it spurned the hatred which was
then released upon his kin and others alike. I believe it to
be because he found himself to be above the mortal plane that
he lived upon; he felt he was destined for greater things.
Unfortunately, I'll never know for the great prismatic beast
that was asleep has been released, and has journeyed to places
far beyond this realm. There may be others in the tomb that
know more, though that is a journey you must make alone, and I
wish you luck, for you will surely need it.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:52:32 2003] You say, 'Hail, Kal t`Ven'
[Mon Aug 11 11:52:32 2003] Kal t`Ven says 'Greetings, young
sleuth. These are trying times, as I am sure you are aware,
but it is good that there are still adventurous sorts like you
about. Were there not, I am confident that our deaths would
have been in vain, and not in the spirit of exploration and
danger-seeking. However, there is one thing to be said for
adventuring, and still another to be said for flights of
fancy. Which is it for you?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:53:23 2003] You say, 'what flights of fancy ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:53:23 2003] Kal t`Ven says 'While your choice,
that attitude will get you nothing but a great deal of grief
and an eventual death. I urge you to reconsider your decision
to come into this vast lair without some kind of true
commitment, as flights of fancy often end up poorly.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:55:21 2003] You say, 'I am adventuring'
[Mon Aug 11 11:55:21 2003] Kal t`Ven says 'Excellent, we can
always use more of your type around, to perpetuate the life,
if nothing else. Take care through this den though, as there
are a great many things that would just as soon see you as a
floor decoration than a wandering buccaneer, especially the
four ancients at the end of it. From my own experience, I have
found that the [larger golems] seem to be in charge and may
instruct the others to do their bidding, which may or may not
include the destruction of any invaders.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:55:53 2003] You say, 'what larger golems ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:55:54 2003] Kal t`Ven says 'I can assure you
that if you proceed beyond these doors, you will find out for
yourself. I will tell you though that there is a great master
of the guardians that walk these halls, and he is aptly named
as well, for he will instruct those below him to assist him
should trouble engulf him. For your own sake, I hope you are
prepared for the immensity of the situation ahead. If you are
not, then this adventure is not for you, as it was not for me.
What lay beyond was the death of me, not so long ago, and that
is why I am now a permanent resident to these frosty walls.
They do tell stories though. . .'
[Mon Aug 11 11:56:33 2003] You say, 'what stories ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:56:33 2003] Kal t`Ven says 'There is a story of
a [short fellow] who came through here looking for grand
adventures and seeking grand treasures, but all he found was
grand pain and suffering. There is a lost love story of a [man
and a woman] who came here in search of a friend, only to be
sucked into the traps that litter the grounds beyond. Theirs
is a most sad tale, wrought with pain and suffering, and whose
story isn't yet completed. Then. . . then there is your story.
Your story is what you make of it, and I hope for your sake
you choose the pages of your adventure well. Look to the halls
of this debilitating dungeon for answers you seek and perhaps
you will find more than you were searching for.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:57:22 2003] You say, 'what short fellow ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:57:23 2003] Kal t`Ven closes his eyes, as if to
re-imagine himself in a very intriguing and exciting
chronicle. 'An overzealous little gnome, his life revolved
around finding new and dangerous things. He would search for
weeks on end looking for the next adventure, seeking out what
a fabled beast looked like, or exploring to try and find the
next great treasure. Milas was his name and his last great
journey led him to the halls of this lair in search of [great
knowledge], and great wealth.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:57:57 2003] You say, 'what great knowledge ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:57:57 2003] Kal t`Ven says 'No one knows for
sure, except for Milas and the two lovers who came looking for
him so long ago. As with most people though, I believe he came
in search of the mighty sleeping beast with the hope that
perhaps he might solve the mystery for himself and be the
greatest gnome ever to have explored the extensive regions of
this world.'
[Mon Aug 11 11:58:25 2003] You say, 'what man and a woman ?'
[Mon Aug 11 11:58:26 2003] Kal t`Ven says 'Paldar and Ulessa
Bladesoul were said to have been soul bound by love. They had
found each other in life early on and made their lives
together the happiest and most exciting they could. However,
their excitement was lent in part by an overzealous gnome
friend they had named Milas. He would bring them news of
something new and exciting to look into, to explore, or to
seek out. But when Milas decided that he was going to make a
trip to this tomb, the two of them tried to dissuade him of
the trek, for they thought it too dangerous. He made the trip
anyway, and because he was their friend, they ventured to the
tomb after him. This was to be their last mistake, and they
paid their lives for it. You may still be able to see them
wandering the halls, as their spirits have not left this
tomb.'
Ok, here are the 4 first NPC, maybe some text is missing, if u
got idea for keywords I will try.
Now, go after the first door, there is a lot of untargetable
Golems (For Master of the Guard "event"), up the ramp to the
MoG, go left, open door.
2 doors now :
- Left door, The Progenitor.
- Right door is Paldar Bladesoul, here the text :
[Mon Aug 11 12:03:09 2003] You say, 'Hail, Paldar Bladesoul'
[Mon Aug 11 12:03:09 2003] Paldar Bladesoul jolts his head in
the direction of the voice. 'You. . . you're not an apparition
are you? No, you can't be, that's what I am. Well, I'm glad to
meet you, my name is Paldar Bladesoul. I don't suppose you've
seen [Ulessa] since you've entered this tomb, have you?'
[Mon Aug 11 12:03:20 2003] You say, 'who is Ulessa ?'
[Mon Aug 11 12:03:21 2003] Paldar Bladesoul looks away in
disgust, whether for himself or for this Ulessa person, you
don't know. 'Ulessa was my beloved wife. It seems so long
since we were together, but life without essence is an
eternity. She was the most beautiful woman I'd ever seen, and
she entranced me beyond all thought. We came to this ominous
tomb in search of our good friend [Milas], but we weren't
aware of truly how dangerous this place was until we got here.
[Mon Aug 11 12:04:00 2003] You say, 'who is Milas ?'
[Mon Aug 11 12:04:00 2003] Paldar Bladesoul says 'Milas
An`Rev, one of the most ambitious gnomes I've ever met, not to
mention one of the friendliest. Ulessa and I first met him
shortly after we were wed in the small cauldron named after
Dagnor, and from there embarked on a long series of
'explorative missions', as he put it. He had a way of always
getting us into [trouble], but nothing we couldn't handle.
Even after years of adventuring, even after we thought we'd
seen everything there was to see, he would find something new
to explore. He was quite an amazing little gnome.'
[Mon Aug 11 12:07:04 2003] You say, 'what trouble'
[Mon Aug 11 12:07:04 2003] Paldar Bladesoul says 'You name it.
Milas was always intrigued by new and exciting, often very
dangerous things and he would always ask us if we wanted to
come along. Being the intrepid explorers that we were, and
that we were best friends with Milas, we couldn't say no. So
we went along with him everywhere he went, and let me tell
you, he had a keen eye for locale. We'd explore the lands of
Antonica, then move on to something hidden and mysterious in
the ancient ruins on Kunark. We spent more time on the road
looking for that next piece of the puzzle, or trying to find
that next smallest creature that we called the road home, and
Milas our family. That is, until he asked us to explore the
ancient mystery of the [sleeping dragon].'
[Mon Aug 11 12:07:18 2003] You say, 'what sleeping dragon ?'
[Mon Aug 11 12:07:19 2003] Paldar Bladesoul says 'That's the
same thing I asked Milas so long ago when he told us about
this extraordinary creature. 'Paldar me ol' friend, Ulessa ya
beaut', listen to what I 'ave found' he said to us. We had no
idea of the immensity of this mighty creature until he had
described, in detail, what the myths and tales had to say
about this beast. We listened intently as he went on and on
about this powerful sleeping dragon and how it had been put
there by a great many dragons long ago. We both knew that [he
was planning] something around this dragon, but we didn't know
what it was exactly at the time.'
[Mon Aug 11 12:09:37 2003] You say, 'what he was planning ?'
[Mon Aug 11 12:09:38 2003] Paldar Bladesoul says 'After he
finished his fabulous tale, he explained to us that he was
going to search the planet for the fabled prismatic beast, and
that he wanted us to come along with him. We were stunned when
he finished, and even more so that he asked us to come with
him to find this monstrosity. Both Ulessa and I tried to talk
Milas out of it. We pleaded with him not to go, and told him
it was a [foolish endeavor], but he wouldn't listen.'
[Mon Aug 11 12:10:10 2003] You say, 'what foolish endeavor ?'
[Mon Aug 11 12:10:10 2003] Paldar Bladesoul says 'Talk of a
dragon almost as powerful as the creator herself?! A dragon
that reigned supreme over all other dragons as they looked on
and cowered in fear? Such beasts were unimaginably powerful
and a group of three tireless adventurers would have no way to
take on such a monster. We were honestly frightened by the
story and we feared for anyone who tried to embark on a
journey to find such a beast. But as I said, Milas paid no
heed to our warnings and went off on his own anyway. We really
had no idea what to think at that point, but we knew that we
[had to do] something, before Milas got himself killed.'
[Mon Aug 11 12:13:14 2003] You say, 'and what did you do ?'
[Mon Aug 11 12:13:14 2003] Paldar Bladesoul says 'He was our
friend, though now we started to wonder if perhaps he had
gotten too far into these explorative missions for his own
good. Because he was our friend, we had to go after him to
make sure he didn't do something he shouldn't. We followed his
trail all over Norrath before finally finding out that he had
made it to the [ancient tomb]. We found out where the tomb was
and raced there to try and catch up to him.'
[Mon Aug 11 12:13:42 2003] You say, 'what ancient tomb ?'
[Mon Aug 11 12:13:42 2003] Paldar Bladesoul says 'The walls
shined dimly with a glacial velium bile the likes of which we
had never seen before, not to mention the fact that they stood
hundreds of feet high. I'm sure you felt the same way the
first time you came here. The awe-inspiring architecture
clouded our minds for a brief moment while we took it all in.
Truly, we thought, Milas had stumbled onto something
magnificent, albeit terrifying. We proceeded through the tomb
carefully, avoiding the various golems and gargoyles that we
encountered, all the while trying to locate any sign of Milas.
We came to the door directly across from this room and my
first thought was, 'What's in here?' Without a moment's
thought, we moved forth towards the [door] to open it.'
[Mon Aug 11 12:15:07 2003] You say, 'what door ?'
[Mon Aug 11 12:15:08 2003] Paldar Bladesoul says 'The door was
gigantic and spanned the entire reach of the hall, from floor
to ceiling. It took a great force to muster it open, and what
we saw when we opened the door terrified us both. Beyond the
door lay a humungous golem, over three times the size of the
normal golems. We tried to close the door before it noticed
us, but it was too late. It charged for us, the smaller golems
following behind. I tried to fend off the huge golem to try
and let my beloved wife escape. Unfortunately for me, I
couldn't see whether or not she was able to escape, and for
all I know, she could have died right then and there. As for
me, I was quickly done in by the might progenitor, and have
spent the last. . . eternity here [waiting for] Ulessa.'
[Mon Aug 11 12:18:41 2003] You say, 'what are you waiting for
here ?'
[Mon Aug 11 12:18:41 2003] Paldar Bladesoul says 'I'm fairly
certain that my beloved wife perished in this condemned tomb
shortly after me, and while that makes me sad, I still have
nothing but love for her and wish to find her. I've had plenty
of time over the years to come up with a way to try and escape
this prison I'm in so that I might be able to find her, but
unfortunately the bond between my soul and this statue are far
too strong to allow me to go anywhere. I've been waiting for
quite some time for someone to come to aid me in my struggles,
but I don't know anyone who will help.'
[Mon Aug 11 12:19:42 2003] You say, 'I will help you'
[Mon Aug 11 12:19:42 2003] Paldar Bladesoul says 'You will?
That's fantastic, this might just work. I've concocted a way
to put my spirit into a mortal body, at least long enough to
search the tomb for any sign of Ulessa. I've come up with the
perfect way to do this, and here's what it's going to take.
I'm going to need you to bring me the lifeblood of several of
the creatures in the tomb. I don't wish to upset the creatures
or their spirits in this tomb, so all I'll say is that the
more powerful beasts will be the ones that will have what I
need. Gather the ten components for me and bring them back to
me, I'll be able to use them to form the creature that I can
join my spirit with.'
He give a bag, 10 slots, giant size, magic lore nodrop norent,
no weight reduc.
Guess now I have to collect 10 items...
Well, let's continue...
Further in the dungeon, is Milas An`Rev.
I've not discuss with him, cos I know he become a kos wyvern
with a certain keyword, but I will do it later.
Further more, is Ulessa Bladesoul :
[Mon Aug 11 12:25:48 2003] You say, 'Hail, Ulessa Bladesoul'
[Mon Aug 11 12:25:49 2003] Ulessa Bladesoul looks up with you
and sniffles. From the look of it, she has been sniffling like
that for quite some time, though you're not sure how long.
'Oh, I'm sorry. I really don't mean to do this in front of
you, it's just that I'm so very [unhappy].'
[Mon Aug 11 12:26:09 2003] You say, 'why are you unhappy ?'
[Mon Aug 11 12:26:09 2003] Ulessa Bladesoul says 'I'm unhappy
because I haven't seen my husband in so long. We were so very
in love, did everything together. But after the [incident], I
never saw him again. It's like a pang in the back of my throat
keeps causing me pain, but it's not a pain that is tangible or
real, simply an emotional one. I feel so empty though without
Paldar by my side.'
[Mon Aug 11 12:26:33 2003] You say, 'what incident ?'
[Mon Aug 11 12:26:33 2003] Ulessa Bladesoul says 'It all
started because of a friend we once had. I say once had
because he, like myself, is dead and gone. Milas was his name
and he was an adventuresome little fellow, always looking to
go out and do the most dangerous, most fanatically unheard of
[things] to 'live' his life. His final endeavor was to come to
this wretched place and find some lost sleeping dragon. Paldar
and I tried to talk him out of it, but he wouldn't listen. We
tried to tell him that he was just looking to get himself
killed and that he should just let it go. But gnomes will be
gnomes and he was a gnome. So just like a gnome, he was
stubborn and wouldn't listen to a thing we had to say.'
[Mon Aug 11 12:27:18 2003] You say, 'what things ?'
[Mon Aug 11 12:27:18 2003] Ulessa Bladesoul says 'He went off
on his own after we pleaded with him not to go and came here,
to this. . . this. . . PLACE! Ugh, it makes me so angry to
think that he came here, and like the fools that we were,
Paldar and I came after him to try and stop him. Did we stop
to think that maybe we should just let him go? No, of course
not, because that's not what friends do for their friends.
Instead, we followed him and we got ourselves caught up in the
[mess].'
[Mon Aug 11 12:27:50 2003] You say, 'what mess ?'
[Mon Aug 11 12:27:50 2003] Ulessa Bladesoul says 'What mess?
I'll tell you what mess! We came here, of course terrified out
of our minds. We saw the pretty sights, found out that there
are huge golems and what not all over the place just waiting
to grind you into velium dust, and then we came to a door. So
tell me, what do you have to do when you come to a door, by
default?'
[Mon Aug 11 12:28:15 2003] You say, 'open it..'
[Mon Aug 11 12:28:16 2003] Ulessa Bladesoul says 'You open it,
exactly! And that's just what we did, because we thought that
perhaps Milas was behind the door. We didn't take into account
that the door was twenty times larger than either of us, but
we still opened it. Well, beyond that door we didn't find the
gnome we had come here to find. Instead we found the creator
golem, set in that room to create more golems for the ones
that failed. I'm sure you can imagine [what happened] after
that.'
[Mon Aug 11 12:28:41 2003] You say, 'what happened ?'
[Mon Aug 11 12:28:41 2003] Ulessa Bladesoul says 'We tried to
close the door, hoping he wouldn't see us, but he did. He came
charging after us, his feet making thunderous footsteps the
entire way. My dear brave husband stood up to him and his
newly built sentries to try and let me escape, and escape I
did. That is, if you can really even call it an escape. I made
it out of the eye of that creator beast and fumbled my through
this forsaken tomb, barely missing the various [beasts] of
burden along the way.'
[Mon Aug 11 12:29:13 2003] You say, 'what beasts ?'
[Mon Aug 11 12:29:13 2003] Ulessa Bladesoul says 'Golems,
gargoyles, wyverns, spectres, you name it. Each time I saw
one, I almost let out a scream that would have awoken the
dead, if they hadn't been already I mean. I got turned around
quite a few times too, going back and forth not remembering
which way was up. But finally, I got to this statue behind me
and looked at it. It was so still and gentle, yet it portrayed
the epitome of [evil] that had slain my husband and most
likely slain our friend Milas.'
[Mon Aug 11 12:29:48 2003] You say, 'what evil ?'
[Mon Aug 11 12:29:48 2003] Ulessa Bladesoul says 'The evil of
the sleeping prismatic dragon; the evil that corrupted our
little gnomish friend and brought us to our deaths. It was
here that I stood, looking at this statue that I realized that
it was hopeless for me to continue on. What was I trying to
prove to myself anyway? That I could live on and survive? That
I could find this infamous sleeper and tell him to shove off?
None of that was going to be part of my story, none of it at
all. Instead, while I was gawking at the marble dragon, a
[shadow] engulfed me.'
[Mon Aug 11 12:30:23 2003] You say, 'what shadow ?'
[Mon Aug 11 12:30:23 2003] Ulessa Bladesoul says 'That's the
very same thought that was going through my head at the time.
Who's shadow could that be, or rather. . . what shadow could
possibly be that large? When I turned, I had my answer. There,
in front of me stood a lumbering golem, its bright velium skin
glistening in front of me. It was at that point that I knew my
life had been for naught, and that I would never see my
husband again. So here I stand, an ever-lasting spirit of the
tomb, [waiting] eternally to see my poor Paldar in the after
life.'
[Mon Aug 11 12:30:56 2003] You say, 'what are you waiting ?'
[Mon Aug 11 12:30:57 2003] Ulessa Bladesoul says 'Waiting? Who
knows why I'm waiting. I guess I felt that someday, some live
being like yourself could help me find my beloved. Perhaps
allow us to reunite, if only for a moment. I had some kooky
ideas about how to make that work, but I really didn't have a
way to get the components I needed to make them work.'
[Mon Aug 11 12:31:28 2003] You say, 'I will help you'
[Mon Aug 11 12:31:29 2003] Ulessa Bladesoul says 'You will?
Well like I said, I don't know exactly what is required but
I'm sure that if you find something out of the ordinary,
especially that brings essence to any of the beings in here,
it would probably be useful. Here, take this bag and put
anything you find in there. It's not a real sturdy bag, so if
you do find something bring it back to me as quickly as you
can. I really appreciate what you're doing for me, and if it
helps me find Paldar, I'll be eternally grateful!'
