Dialogue

Outside Lion's Arch, prior to completion of The Ascalon Settlement:

Cynn: "It's a good thing you've got a job as a merchant because you make a terrible tour guide."

Damaris: "I am doing my best to help you find the Ascalon Settlement."

Mhenlo: "Cynn, we only just arrived in Kryta. Please don't get us thrown out already."

Cynn: "I'm just saying, I could get better directions from an imp."

Aidan: "Though I doubt you could get us thrown out of an entire country, I would prefer you not try, Cynn."

Devona: "I am sorry for my companion's rudeness, Damaris. Please continue."

Damaris: "It's quite all right. You'll find the Ascalon Settlement to the northwest."

Damaris: "It's not far from the shores of the Giant's Basin...the great salt lake out past the swamp."
