Initial dialogue

 * Archivist Ithimar
 * Hello there! Am I ever glad to see you. I was out here trying to transcribe some of the images engraved on these ruins and&hellip; well, normally this is such a trivial task&hellip; but this time, whenever I begin, shadowy Nightmares emerge from the ground and drive me away.


 * You appear to be a capable &laquo;profession&raquo;. Could you keep the Nightmares away while I finish my work?

Reward dialogue

 * Archivist Ithimar
 * Many thanks, my friend! I'm not sure why those infernal creatures were so intent on keeping me from transcribing those images, but I can't wait to return to my workshop and begin deciphering them.
