[edit | edit source]- Player: Hello. What are you doing?
- Oxi: I'm the rat keeper, it's my job to look after these here rats.
- Player: You do know that there are some rats running loose?
- Oxi: Some nibble their way out from time to time. Don't worry there's enough cats down here to sort anything that gets out.
- Player: So how do these rat pits work?
- Oxi: The Keldagrim pits cater for those with the larger variety of cats.
- Oxi: If you have an overgrown cat and a couple of coins you can challenge someone else who also has an overgrown cat and some spare change.
- Player: That sounds simple enough so far.
- Oxi: You then agree on a wager. It's rumoured that some ratcatchers can talk to their own cats and give them tactics to aid them.
- Player: So then how do you win the challenge?
- Oxi: I was just getting to that. Both the challengers' cats are placed inside the arena, and whichever kills 9 rats first wins.
- That sounds vile and cruel.
- Player: That sounds vile and cruel.
- Oxi: It's a cruel world and the pits are no exception.
- Oxi: Each to their own, I say.
- One more thing...

- Thanks for your help.

- It sounds a little dangerous for my cat.
- Player: It sounds a little dangerous for my cat.
- Oxi: I agree. Cats have been known to be killed in fights.
- Player: Oh how terrible. Is there nothing you can do to save your cat?
- Oxi: Of course there is, you can instruct it to be cautious, and it will leave once it feels as if it is in danger.
- Player: Oh that sounds quite wise.
- Oxi: That depends on how you value your cat.
- Player: Sorry, I don't follow.
- Oxi: Well if your cat dies or it runs away you lose.
- Oxi: So the longer it stays in the fight the better chance you have of winning.

- Wow that sounds like fun.
- Player: Wow that sounds like fun!
- Oxi: I don't know about that.
- Oxi: One thing I know though is that it's a quick way to make and lose money.
- One more thing...
- (Same as below)
- Thanks for your help.
- (Same as below)
- Is there a limit to how much you can bet?
- Player: Is there a limit to how much you can bet?
- Oxi: Hmmm... let me think. I don't think that's ever arisen but I think it's 20,000.
- Player: Hmm, that sounds like a silly amount of money to bet on a cat fight.
- Oxi: You'd be surprised what some people would be willing to bet.
- Oxi: There is a minimum bet of 100 coins too.
- One more thing...
- (Same as below)
- Thanks for your help.
- (Same as below)
- Can I challenge you and your cat?
- Player: Can I challenge you and your cat?
- Oxi: No, not now, we don't really bet with outsiders.
- Player: But I'm not an outsider, am I not inside in the pits now?
- Oxi: I don't know, maybe once you've done something to win over my trust.
- Player: Can it be bought?
- Oxi: What?
- Player: Your trust.
- Oxi: No. Regular townsfolk don't like us, which leads us to distrust them and anyone else.
