Dialogue

Initial dialogue

Elder Jurdu

"[Difficulty: Master] The skale armies are on the run! Now is the time to strike at their heart and remove this threat from our doorstep once and for all. We've heard reports the armies are commanded by a skale leader who is far more intelligent than the rest. In fact, he may have some sort of magical control over them. I paid some corsairs a huge sum to discover the location of this leader. It seems he's taken up residence at the Cyclone Palace in Mehtani Keys. If you can destroy the leader, I'm sure the skale armies will disband."

Accept: "Cut off the head and the body will fall. Yes. An excellent plan!"

Reject: "The Cyclone Palace is at the far end of the Keys. Perhaps they will stay there."

When asked about quest: "Find the skale leader at the Cyclone Palace in Mehtani Keys and destroy him before he rallies the skale army for a counter-attack."

Reward dialogue

Elder Jurdu

"With the leader of the skale army destroyed, I don't think we'll need to worry about them for a very long time. Well done, <character name>! We are forever in your debt."
