Ruins in Cam Torum

Attempting to pass-through the entrance

Attala: What do you think you're doing, human?
Player: Er... Admiring these lovely gates?
Attala: You can admire them from back here!
(End of dialogue)

Talking to the builders

Builder 1: It's a bit rude of 'em to take up the whole bridge with their conversation, isn't it, mate?
Builder 2: Aye, mate, but wouldn't it be just as rude for us to interrupt?
Builder 1: A good point well made, mate. Who are we to decide that the dig is more impor'ant than a personal disagreement between two people?
Builder 2: You're not wrong, mate. We often place matters of industry above those of people, and it's chippin' away at our ability to relate to each other on a human level.
Select an Option
What's going on here?
- Player: What's going on here?
- Builder 1: We're part of a dig into some ruins beneath Cam Torum, but the way's blocked by these folks.
- Player: Have you tried asking them to move?
- Builder 2: We're considering the moral implications of doing exactly that, mate.
- (Shows initial options)
Are you two philosophers?
- Player: Are you two philosophers?
- Builder 1: No mate, builders.
- Builder 2: But thinking, talking, discussing, it's what makes us human, mate.
- Player: It's not just humans that do those things.
- Builder 2: Fair play, mate. I guess we're reflecting more on the condition of sen'ience in general then.
- Player: ...
- (Shows initial options)
Goodbye.
- Player: Goodbye.
- Builder 2: Have a good one, mate.

Talking to Zuma or Attala

Zuma: It is my right and duty as a follower of Ranul to document that which has been found beneath your city.
Attala: Your beliefs do not grant you a right to anything in Cam Torum, not to document things, and especially not to get yourself killed.
Attala: I don't want to give Fortis any excuses to come knocking on our door to investigate your untimely and idiotic demise.
Zuma: I won't take no for an answer. I am bound by my divine oath.
Attala: Oh yes? And will your divine oath feed you in there? Light your way? Keep you safe from cave-ins and monsters?
Player: I don't know about cave-ins, but I can handle monsters.
If the player does not meet the quest requirements:
- Attala: Sorry, but I'm busy with a different arrogant human. You'll have to wait in line.
- You do not meet all of the requirements to start the Perilous Moons quest.
- (End of dialogue)
If the player meets the quest requirements:
- Zuma: Ranul provides...
- Attala: No! We've more than enough humans in Cam Torum with this blasted Fortis mandated dig! I don't care how many deals it secured, it's not worth all this trouble!
- Guard: Advisor Attala...
- Attala: What?!
- Guard: Apologies, but I was sent to tell you that one of the creatures from the ruins managed to bypass our defenses.
- Guard: It escaped through the mountain's outflow spring, to the north east.
- Attala: The one that leads to the aqueduct?! We'll have Fortis guards barging into the city if they catch wind...
- Player: It sounds like you need help.
- Attala: Cam Torum does not need help, much less that of any humans!
- Attala: Wake the off-duty guards and put them to work. I'll ensure they're paid handsomely.
- Guard: I'm afraid we already have.
- Attala: Argh! Get back to your post!
- Attala: Alright, fine! Human, you look like you've seen a fight or two. Deal with the escaped creature by the mountain outflow spring.
- Player: Hang on, what's in it for me?
- Attala: What do you want?!
- Start the Perilous Moons quest?
- Yes.
  - Player: Access to the city sounds nice.
  - Attala: Fine, get to it!
  - (End of dialogue)
- No.
  - Player: On secound thoughts, I don't like your attitude.
  - Attala: Then go away!
  - (End of dialogue)

Talking to either again

Attala: Have you killed that creature yet?
Player: Working on it.
Attala: It's up by the mountain outflow spring, north east of here. Get to it before it makes its way to the aqueduct!
(End of dialogue)

Killing the Sulphur Nagua

If the player is the primary person to kill the Nagua:
- Player: I should head back to Attala and let her know that the aqueduct is secure.
- (End of dialogue)
If the player deals significant damage to the Nagua, which also receives damage from another player:
- Player: Good work team! Let's let Attala know we all killed it, together!
- (End of dialogue)
If the player deals a small amount of damage to the Nagua, which is killed by another player:
- Player: Technically I helped kill it... Without me, the others might have been overwhelmed... Yes... I should let Attala know the aqueduct is secure.
- (End of dialogue)

Returning to Attala

Player: I've taken care of the... What was that thing anyway?
Attala: A spirit of sorts. Something far older than anything your people have bothered to remember. In any case, a deal is a deal. You may enter the city of Cam Torum.
Zuma: What about me?
Attala: Are you still here?!
Zuma: Yes, and I'm not going anywhere!
Attala: Fine! If it'll make you stop pestering me, you can join...
Player: [player name].
Attala: You can join [player name].
Attala: [player name], he's your responsibility now. If either of you cause any trouble, you're both out!
Player: Now, hang on...
Zuma: Thank you, [player name]. I'm Zuma, by the way. I'll meet you inside.
The screen briefly fades to black, and Zuma disappears into the city.
Builder 1: Thanks for that, mate. You should speak to Jess inside. She'll be in the north of the city. She could use a problem solver like yourself.
Player: Who's Jess?
Builder 2: She's the archaeologist in charge of the dig into these ruins they've found. Discovering the mysteries of the past and that.
(End of dialogue)

Talking to the Builders after Zuma departs

Builder 1: Thanks for that, mate. You should speak to Jess inside. She'll be in the north of the city. She could use a problem solver like yourself.
(Same as above)

Talking to the builders again

Builder 1: You should head inside, mate. Remember, Jess will be in the north of the city. She could use a problem solver like yourself.
(End of dialogue)

Walking through Cam Torum

As the player walks through Cam Torum, the following dialogues occur.

Dialogue 1

Builder 1: To me!
Builder 2: To you!
Guard: Keep it down!
(End of dialogue)

Dialogue 2

Guard: I'm watching you, human.
Player: I'm here to help, you know...
(End of dialogue)

Dialogue 3

Citizen: Hmph!
Player: What did I do?
(End of dialogue)

Dialogue 4

Citizen: Every day they let more of your kind in.
Player: There's no need for that.
(End of dialogue)

Dialogue 5

Citizen: Another human? Do what you need to and then be gone from here.
Player: That was unnecessary.
(End of dialogue)

Attempting to enter the ruins before talking to Jessamine

Jessamine: Excuse me! I don't believe I've given you permission to enter the dig.
(End of dialogue)

Talking to Attala

Attala: Hello again.
Player: What are you doing here?
Attala: Well with the suitation outside dealt with, I now need to keep an eye on this expedition. Any mistakes made in these ruins could bring the ground out from beneath our city!
Player: Is it really that dangerous in there?
Attala: It might be if you don't know what you're dealing with. Your people often assume they do, which generally makes things worse.
Select an Option
The rest of your people don't seem very happy I'm here.
- Player: The rest of your people don't seem very happy I'm here.
- Attala: The rest?! I'm not happy you're here either.
- Player: I helped you with the aqueduct. You could afford to show a little bit of gratitude.
- Attala: You'll have my gratitude when you finish you^[sic] business in Cam Torum and leave.
- (Shows initial options)
Will the city's defense be okay without you?
- Player: Will the city's defense be okay without you?
- Attala: As I say, the situation has been dealt with for now. Besides, the only reason that situation existed in the first place is because of these ruins.
- Attala: At this point a smart person would call off this dig entirely, but as that doesn't seem set to happen, I'd say it's in our best interests we keep an eye on things.
- (Shows initial options)
I take it you don't get on well with the humans?
- Player: I take it you don't get on well with the humans?
- Attala: It's not exactly that. You have your virtues, but you have short sight and even shorter memories, which can be very dangerous.
- Player: Why not share what you know with us then?
- Attala: I suspect some of your people wouldn't be too pleased if we did. The truth isn't something that everyone desires.
- Player: Well I'm always open to a bit of truth myself.
- Attala: Hmph! I doubt that.
- (Shows initial options)
Goodbye.
- Player: Goodbye.
- (End of dialogue)

Talking to Zuma

Zuma: Thank you for your help back there, [player name]. Dwarves can be very stubborn.
Player: So can you, apparently.
Zuma: It is not stubbornness on my part. It is duty that drives me.
Player: Duty to what?
Zuma: I am a nelta of Ranul and I am bound by his tenets. One of them is to ensure that knowledge is protected and respected. These ruins they've found could contain all manner of things! I must find out!
Select an Option
How did you hear about the ruins?
- Player: How did you hear about these ruins?
- Zuma: The cave-in that revealed them shook the foundations of the Teomat!
- Zuma: The dwarves tried to hide them from us, but we eventually found out.
- (Shows initial options)
What are you expecting to find down there?
- Player: What are you expecting to find down there?
- Zuma: I don't know exactly yet, but knowledge of some kind! Maybe even some undiscovered history regarding Ralos and Ranul!
- (Shows initial options)
I take it you don't get on well with the dwarves?
- Player: I take it you don't get on well with the dwarves?
- Zuma: They are arrogant! They think they know it all, and worst of all, they are non-believers!
- Player: Technically I'm a non-believer.
- Zuma: But that is because you are ignorant of the truth, not because you outright reject it. Would you like me to tell you of the ways of Ranul?
- Player: Maybe some other time.
- (Shows initial options)
Goodbye.
- Player: Goodbye.
- Zuma: Timoiva.
- (End of dialogue)

Talking to Jessamine

Player: Hello.
Jessamine: Nilsal! The name's Jessamine, though most people call me Jess. You must be [player name]. I hear you sorted out the situation holding back the arrivial^[sic] of our supplies. Thanks for that.
Player: Don't mention it. So you're here for these ruins beneath the city?
Jessamine: Yes, a cave-in revealed them! I'm here to lead the dig and see what we can discover.
Player: There seems to be a lot of ancient ruins popping up lately.
Jessamine: Gielinor has been around for a long time. We're really only just starting to scratch its surface!
Select an Option
Can I be of any help with the dig?
- Player: Can I be of any help with the dig?
- Jessamine: Well it seems our expedition has already gained a couple of new recruits somehow, but what I really need is someone more proactive who can fend for themselves. You seem perfect for the job!
- Jessamine: Meet me inside the ruins. We need help setting up some base camps for further exploration.
- (Shows other options)
How come the dwarves let you in?
- Player: How come the dwarves let you in?
- Jessamine: I work at the museum in Fortis. The dwarves have a begrudging alliance with the capital, and so they begrudgingly let me in.
- Jessamine: They demanded agreement to some absurdly expensive export deals in exchange, and even exclusive rights to some imports from the mainland.
- Jessamine: It took weeks of negotiation, and they still don't seem entirely satisfied.
- Player: I take it you don't get on too well?
- Jessamine: No. It's a shame. They would be a great source of historical knowledge, if they were just more willing to share it.
- (Shows initial options)
Goodbye.
- Player: Goodbye.
- Jessamine: See you later.
- (End of dialogue)

Talking to Jessamine again before entering the ruins

Player: Hello again.
Jessamine: Nilsal! When you're ready, meet me inside the ruins. We need help setting up some base camps for further exploration.

Remnants of the Old Ones

Attempting to enter any entrance before speaking to anyone

Player: I should probably speak to the others before I go exploring.
(End of dialogue)

Talking to the builders

Builder 1: G'day, mate.
Player: I'm surprised to see you both in such high spirits after walking past all those jeering dwarves.
Builder 2: Ah, well it's unfortunate, but no reason to be sad. It's them that ought to be sad.
Builder 1: Aye, mate. Livin' a life unable to connect with others because they look different must be miserable.
Builder 2: We wish 'em the best. Hopefully their paths to personal growth are near and smooth.
Player: ...
(End of dialogue)

Talking to Jessamine before talking to Attala and Zuma

Jessamine: Xali.... Ates... Hmm, no, not quite right...
(End of dialogue)

Talking to Zuma before talking to Attala

Zuma: The moon blotting out the sun, could this be...
(End of dialogue)

Talking to Attala

Attala: Concerning...
Player: What have you found?
Attala: This is an old place, [player name]. Older even than much of what we dwarves remember.
Player: That's exciting.
Attala: No, it's dangerous is what it is.
Attala: Now where is that fool priest?
Attala walks over to Zuma
(End of dialogue)

Talking to Zuma

Zuma: Incredible...
Player: What have you found?
Zuma: This is sacred ground. This is most obviously a shrine built by emissaries of Ranul.
Attala: You see a picture of a creature eating the sun and instead of a warning, you see evidence of your god? You really are beyond saving.
Zuma: Enough! This mural may depict a scene straight from our holy scriptures! Show some respect!
Player: Alright, calm down, both of you. Let's go see what the actual archaeologist has to say.
Attala and Zuma walk over to Jessamine
(End of dialogue)

Talking to Jessamine

Jessamine: Strange...
Player: What have you found?
Jessamine: This mural has an inscription beneath it, written in the language of the Old Ones. I think I'm getting there, but I'm going to need more time to decipher it.
Attala: We don't need to be deciphering inscriptions to know that we shouldn't be here. I mean look at that... whatever that floating thing is. This place is dangerous!
Jessamine: All the more reason to find out more about it then.
If the player has not completed The Garden of Death:
- Player: Do you need me to do anything in the meantime?
- (Continues below)
If the player has completed The Garden of Death:
- Player: Could I help with the translations? I actually have a bit of experience with this language.
- Jessamine: That's very kind of you to offer, but if it's okay with you, I actually have a different task I could use your help with.
- (Continues below)
Jessamine: The surrounding caverns are quite large. If you could take some building supplies and set up some camps in each of them, it would make further exploration a lot easier.
Player: I'll get right to it.
(End of dialogue)

Talking to Jessamine again

Jessamine: Have you finished setting up the camps?
Player: Not quite.
Jessamine: Let me know when you have. In the meantime, I've got to keep working on this inscription, whilst also making sure these two don't kill each other...
Player: They're... er... Very passionate.
Player: Speaking of which, what about you? Why a life of archaeology?
Jessamine: I've always loved it. When I was a child, I had a friend in Fortis who I'd collect old trinkets with.
Zuma: It's right here! It clearly says...
Player: I see. I guess it was a natural next step then?
Attala: I don't care what your book says! Your book won't keep us safe from...
Jessamine: Indeed. The employees at the museum already knew me well by the time I applied. I've spent a lot of my life browsing it.
Attala: The last time you humans did something like this...
Player: You should visit the museum in Varrock some time. There's a lot to see!
Zuma: Always 'you humans'. You do realise I am not my great-grandfather...
Jessamine: I've been meaning to! Thing is, I couldn't turn down this opportunity when it came up.
Attala: Keep this up and I'll have you kicked out of the...
Player: Understandable. Right, I should get back to those camps.
Zuma: The secrets of this dungeon belong to the Varlamorian people! You can't...
(End of dialogue)

Talking to either Attala or Zuma again

Attala: How can you make those claims so confidently?
Zuma: It's in the holy scriptures! As I was saying...
Jessamine: Can't get a word in edgeways with these two.
Player: They're... er... Very passionate.
(Same as above)

Attempting to enter an entrance without the building supplies

Player: I should grab the camp building supplies before I do any more exploration.
(End of dialogue)

Taking building supplies

The following assumes that the player has not yet built any campsites. The player can only take as many building supplies as there are campsites left to build; the dialogue and item receipt amounts adjust accordingly if the player has built some but not all campsites.
If the player does not have sufficient inventory space:
- You don't have enough room to take everything you need from the crates. You need [one/two/three/four/five] free space[s].
- (End of dialogue)
If the player already has some building supplies:
- If the player has exactly one building supplies:
  - You take some supplies from the crates.
  - (Player receives two Building supplies.)
  - (Player receives a hammer and/or spade if they do not have one in inventory.)
  - (End of dialogue)
- If the player has exactly two building supplies:
  - You take some supplies from the crates.
  - (Player receives one Building supplies.)
  - (Player receives a hammer and/or spade if they do not have one in inventory.)
  - (End of dialogue)
- If the player has three or more building supplies:
  - If the player does not have a hammer or a saw:
    - You take some supplies from the crates.
    - (End of dialogue)
  - If the player has a hammer but not a saw:
    - You take some supplies from the crates.
    - (End of dialogue)
  - You take some supplies from the crates.

You take some supplies from the crates.
(Player receives three Building supplies.)
(End of dialogue)

Attempting to enter a boss entrance

Player: This entrance looks dangerous. I probably shouldn't go in here without a good reason.
(End of dialogue)

Trapping rocks, collecting from grubby saplings, fishing, or rustling bushes before building the camps

Player: I probably shouldn't touch anything until the others have had a chance to look around.
(End of dialogue)

Talking to the builders after setting up all three camps

Builder 1: G'day, mate.
Builder 2: Thanks for taking care of those base camps, mate.
Player: No problem. I hope there's no hard feelings over Jessamine asking me to do a part of your jobs.
Builder 1: That's no worries, mate, I've no issue admitting you're better cut out for building camps in dangerous dungeons than I am.
Builder 2: We may not be mul'i-disciplined adventurers like you, but we don't need to be. The world needs more than just heroes, don't it?
Builder 1: Aye, mate, I'm content and proud to just be a hard working, decent builder.
Builder 2: Besides, without us, building supplies wouldn't be there in the first place. Life's all about working together.
Player: Glad to hear it. Keep up the good work then!
Builder 2: You too, mate.
(End of dialogue)

Talking to Jessamine after setting up all three camps

Player: I've finished setting up the camps.
Jessamine: Thanks. I'm all done deciphering the inscription. Some of it has worn away, so we're missing bits, but between it, the murals and the big floating monolith, we've already found some pretty exciting stuff!
Select an Option
What does the inscription say?
- Player: What does the inscription say?
- Jessamine: 'Here in Neypotzli, by ??? of earth and streams, have these emissaries of ??? been sealed, ??? ??? ???.'
- Zuma: Emissaries of Ranul! We must work to free them at once.
- Attala: First they built the place, now they're sealed in it. These leaping assumptions are going to get us all killed!
- Player: Well I've only ever had good experiences opening ancient vaults.
- Jessamine: Attala is right to be cautious. These murals don't look all too friendly...
- Zuma: But these emissaries may have ancient knowledge lost to the ages! We must investigate further.
- Jessamine: These ruins are directly beneath the Teomat... I suppose it's possible there may be some links to Ralos and Ranul.
- Attala: I will not allow you to put Cam Torum in danger just because you're curious!
- Player: I'm not sure if these disagreements are really getting us anywhere...
- Attala: You make a good point.
- Select an Option
- What do we do now?
  - Player: What do we do now?
  - Jessamine: I think it would be unwise to go and start freeing emissaries that we know nothing about.
  - Attala: Agreed!
  - Jessamine: But we should still try and learn more about them. They may pose a risk to Cam Torum.
  - Attala: Hmph! Very well.
  - Jessamine: We know they were sealed by the power of earth and streams. This magic presumably originates from somewhere within these ruins. I also wonder if these talismans I found might be connected...
  - Jessamine shows you an earth and a water talisman.
  - Player: Interesting...
  - Attala: Hmm... Nahta will know what to do with these. [player name], take them to him in Cam Torum's magic shop. Tell him I sent you.
  - If the player has no inventory space:
    - Attala: Come back to me when you have space and I'll give you the talismans.
  - Jessamine hands you the talismans.

- What does the northern mural depict?
  - (Same as below)
- Goodbye.
  - (Same as below)
What does the western mural depict?
- Player: What does the western mural depict?
- Attala: It's raining blood! It is clearly a depiction of death!
- Jessamine: It's not clear from the mural whether the creature depicted is calling the rain or lamenting its arrival.
- Zuma: It's an emissary of the blood moon! A bringer of rain and bountiful harvests!
- Jessamine: Blood moons don't usually bring good harvests, and I don't see any thriving crops depicted in the mural.
- Player: So what do you make of it?
- Zuma: You cannot deny us the Blood Moon's bounty!
- Jessamine: The blood moon is nothing more than a cosmic occurrence. We need more context to come to any conclusions.
- Attala: Cam Torum has no interest in bathing in blood!
- (Shows initial options)
What does the eastern mural depict?
- Player: What does the eastern mural depict?
- Zuma: An emissary of the eclipsed moon! A herald of Ximoua!
- Attala: Ximoua? It is eating the sun, you fool! If it's a herald of anything, it's death!
- Jessamine: Given what is taught about Ximoua, that isn't too surprising.
- Select an Option
- What is Ximoua again?
  - Player: What is Ximoua again?
  - Zuma: An eclipse that marks the end of a cycle! The destruction of the world and its rebirth!
  - Player: Ah yes, I remember now. Very pleasant.
  - Zuma: Indeed, it is an event we all look forward to. It is said that when it happens, Ralos and Ranul unite all life as one! Can you imagine such an honour?
  - (Shows initial options)
- Maybe we should focus on something else.
  - Player: Maybe we should focus on something else.
  - (Shows initial options)
What does the northern mural depict?
- Player: What does the northern mural depict?
- Attala: A creature snapping a mountain in half. Care to explain this one, Zuma?
- Zuma: It's an emissary of the blue moon! Clearly... er... bringing an end to the winter?
- Player: Any thoughts on this one, Jess?
- Jessamine: Blue moons are exceedinly rare... They're only seen occasionally during volcanic eruptions. It's possible that this cracking mountain signals the appearance of a volcano.

Goodbye.

Good job mediating those two.
- Player: Good job mediating those two.
- Jessamine: Thanks. It does feel a bit like I'm walking a tightrope over a scorpion nest at times.
- Player: Attala might be worse than a pit of scorpions!
- Attala: Did I hear my name?
- Jessamine: Yes! We were just saying how helpful you've been!
- Attala: Hmph.
- Jessamine: Quite!
- (Shows initial options)
So how did you end up getting assigned to these ruins?
- Player: So how did you end up getting assigned to these ruins?
- Jessamine: The museum suspected there might be an Old One connection. It's one of my specialties, so exploring these kinds of places is what I do.
- (Shows initial options)
Goodbye.
- (Same as above)

Talking to Attala before finishing the talismans

Attala: Take the talismans to Nahta in Cam Torum's magic shop. Tell him I sent you.
If the player does not have a water talisman in their inventory:
- Player: What if I lost them?
- Attala: Then you'll need to find some more yourself, and take better care with them once you have!
(End of dialogue)

Talking to Zuma before finishing the talismans

Zuma: Any word on the enchanted talismans?
Player: Still working on it.
Zuma: I'm afraid you'll need to talk to Attala if you need any help.
Select an Option
What lead you to be such a devout follower of Ranul?
- Player: What lead you to be such a devout follower of Ranul?
- Zuma: Ralos appeals to many who wish to live fast-paced lives.
- Zuma: I do see that appeal, but there is a calmness and peace in Ranul that calls to me.
- Player: Doesn't Ranul govern over death? That doesn't put you off?
- Zuma: Making peace with death is one of the things that attracted me to Ranul's teachings.
- Zuma: That, and all the time I get to spend in nice and quiet libraries.
- (Shows initial options)
So is this place what you were expecting?
- Player: So is this place what you were expecting?
- Zuma: Far more so! As much as Attala refuses to believe it, I think these ruins are connected to Ranul.
- Player: Is it because of all the moon symbology?
- Zuma: That's part of it, but there's also that thing at the centre of this room. Some of the markings remind me of something I once read about.
- Player: Interesting, if a bit vague. Care to elaborate on what it is you read about?
- Zuma: I can't really. I'm still not done putting my theory together.
- Player: Well I look forward to hearing more once you've done so.
- (Shows initial options)
Goodbye.
- Player: Goodbye.
- Zuma: Timoiva.

Talking to Nahta

Nahta: Are you in need of some runes?
Select an Option
(Non-quest dialogue) Yes please.
(Non-quest dialogue) Where do you get your runes from?
Actually, I've been sent by Attala.
- Player: Actually, I've been sent by Attala.
- Nahta: Attala? Why's that?
- Player: We're trying to find out more about a source of magic in the ruins beneath the city. She asked me to bring some talismans to you.
- Nahta: If she needs me to get involved, then no doubt this is something well beyond your people and probably highly dangerous.
- Nahta: But I suppose if she's okay with that... Go on then, let's have a look.
- If the player lost a talisman:
  - Player: Er... I seem to have misplaced them.
  - Nahta: Then you'd better go and find them.
  - (End of dialogue)
- You show the talismans to Nahta.
- Nahta: How in the... Where did you get these?
- Nahta: Actually, on second thoughts, I'm not sure I want to know.
- Nahta casts a spell on the talismans.
- Nahta: There. Now take them to the blacksmith. Tell him they've been enchanted to react to naguanil magic and they need some finishing touches.
- Select an Option

You seem to be well known by the other dwarves in Cam Torum.

Player: Argh!
Eyatlalli: Euat xita kemo? Euat iknil?
Player: Er... What?
Eyatlalli: A human? Interesting... In that case, allow me to use a language more familiar to you.
Player: Thanks... I think. So who are you?
Eyatlalli: I am Eyatlalli, a nagua of earth and streams.
Player: Right... And what is this place?
Eyatlalli: Neypotzli. A prison.
Player: A prison? For who? You?
Eyatlalli: For the Moons of Peril, and their long dead summoner.
Player: Moons of Peril?
Eyatlalli: Yes. Powerful and terrible nagua summoned to wreak havoc.
Player: Why would anyone want to do that?
Eyatlalli: In the face of inevitable death, a powerful shaman decided to lash out and inflict death on others.
Eyatlalli: Her fellows disagreed with her actions. They created this prison, and they summoned me to watch over it.
The screen shakes briefly.
Player: What was that?
Eyatlalli: The icosahedron...
Eyatlalli disappears.

Talking to Jessamine after meeting Eyatlalli

Jessamine: Argh!

Jessamine: Never mind the introductions, what was that shaking?!
Eyatlalli: The icosahedron has been disturbed.
Player: The icosa-who?
Eyatlalli: Icosahedron. An object of twenty facets, floating at the centre of this room.
Player: Did anybody touch that thing whilst I was gone?
Jessamine: Zuma did something. We were discussing the murals and when we turned around, he was gone!
Attala: I knew I shouldn't have let that fool priest in!
Player: What does the icosahedron do?
Eyatlalli: It is key to the magics that keep the Moons of Peril contained. It reshapes and reweaves the magical seals as the Moons attempt to break them.
Player: Isn't it a good thing it moved then?
Eyatlalli: For it to have moved means that the seals must have needed reshaping. That has not happened for decades.
Jessamine: Zuma must have done something!
Player: Can we fix it?
Eyatlalli: For centuries, the magic used to seal the Moons has been woven into Neypotzli and the creatures that inhabit it.
Eyatlalli: Naguanil is the magic of nature. A ritual involving the living parts of this place could re-infuse the icosahedron.
Jessamine: Living parts? As in the animals?
Eyatlalli: Yes. Bring me scales of a bream, the tail of a moss lizard and paste made of moonlight grubs. I will begin preparing the rest of the ritual.

You place the scales in the shape of the sun.
Eyatlalli: Place the lizard tail beneath it as the earth.
You place the lizard tail beneath the sun.
Eyatlalli: Now carve the earth in two with the paste, as the stream carves the earth.
You pull the tail apart and draw a line through it with the paste.
Eyatlalli: The ritual is in motion, but the wound to the seal will not close with the Moons still raging against it. I must ask you for one more small favour.
If the player has completed One Small Favour:
- Player: Please, no...
- (Continues below)
Eyatlalli: The Moons cannot be killed, but they can be distracted whilst I repair the seal. Enter their chambers here in Neypotzli and engage them in combat.
Player: Aren't these things like unstoppable forces of nature or something? Am I going to be alright in there?
Eyatlalli: Ordinarily, no. Their mere presence is enough to bring most creatures to an early death. However, you have my help.
Eyatlalli: Whilst you fight them, look for my glyphs. They will protect and guide you. If the Moons become too enraged, I will transport you out of their chambers.
Select an Option
Could you remind me what your glyphs look like?

Talking to the builders

Builder 1: G'day, mate.
Player: You seem remarkably calm considering everything that's going on.
Builder 2: Life's unpredictable, mate. No sense stressin' over what's out of your control.
Builder 1: It's not like we're not aware of the danger we're in, but worryin' about it ain't productive.
Player: Shouldn't you be getting out of here if you feel like you're in danger?
Builder 2: We may not be in total control of our surroundings, but we can still impact them positively through our actions. Like bein' here to support you.

Builder 1: And if yer genuinely sorry, best you can do is work to be better, not mope around. So keep your chin up, mate!
Zuma: Thank you...
Player: What did you do, anyway?
Zuma: I saw sun and moon runes on that thing. Recalled something from Ranul's teachings, a rite he once performed...
Zuma: I tried to emulate it, and it worked. I thought I had freed his emissaries. But they weren't that at all...
Player: Interesting. Maybe there was some sort of connection between Ranul and this place after all.

Player: Something tells me the rest of your people won't be too happy about that.

Eyatlalli: You have done well. The seal is repaired, but the Moons have seen a glimpse of freedom. Even now they rage against their bindings. It is... taxing.
Player: Is there anything I can do to help?
Eyatlalli: You could. Distracting them again will afford me some rest. In return, I am willing to repay you with trinkets from ancient times.
Player: That sounds interesting.
Eyatlalli: Very well. Come and claim your rewards from the chamber to the south east. Should you aid in containing them again, you can return there to receive more rewards.

- Player: No, but you're the only dwarf here that might be willing to share that sort of information with me.
- Attala: Hmph. Very well. The Varlamorians won't mention this, but we were the first to settle here. Our ancestors saw the writing on the wall when Xeric came to power in Kourend. They chose not to stick around.
- Player: Must have been a big thing for them, leaving their home.
- Attala: Doubtful. My people are all too familiar with that sort of thing. The Lovakengj dwarves have mostly forgotten their history, but we Dwarves of Cam Torum remember it all too well.
- Player: Remember what?
- Attala: Before Lovakengj, there was Imcandoria. Our ancestors there were forced to abandon their home, just as we were forced to leave Kourend.
- Attala: If you humans had had your way, we might have had to abandon Cam Torum by now as well.
- Player: You don't know that.
- Attala: But I do know that. As I said, we remember our history, and we know that those who don't are doomed to repeat it.
- Attala: The Varlamorians nearly destroyed themselves in their War of Betrayal, but it was not them who were betrayed, it was us.
- Attala: I was a young dwarf when their war risked destroying our home. I saw the results of their pride. Meanwhile, they've all but forgotten it.
- Player: Sorry. I didn't mean to dig up old wounds.

Talking to Zuma

Zuma: Nilsal, [player name].
Player: Hello, Zuma. How are things?
Zuma: A lot less stressful up here. I think I might leave the adventuring to people like you from now on.
Zuma: Still, at least it gave me a lot to talk about. Those Moons of Peril are concerning, but exciting! I just wish we knew more about their potential links to Ranul.
Player: So you still think there is a link?
Zuma: Oh yes. It may not have been the one I originally thought, but there must be something! They're called Moons after all!
Zuma: The all-powerful Ranul wouldn't have just let some random creatures take on a name like that!
Player: Hmm... It's an interesting thought.
Zuma: Indeed. And on that note, I have some research to do! Until next time.
