«Scene: The Hero returns to Balderic and shows him a piece of the armor»
Hero: I DID find more of those insignias on the armor of the skeletons.
«Balderic cheers excitedly»
Balderic Argent (Doomwood Paladin): I knew it!
Balderic Argent (Doomwood Paladin): This is the insignia of an ancient Lich Lord named XARGOUL!
Balderic Argent (Doomwood Paladin): The undead wizard ruled in this area for a very long time before he was defeated.
Balderic Argent (Doomwood Paladin): I have long suspected that Doomwood was his seat of power. This all but proves it.
Balderic Argent (Doomwood Paladin): Xagroul's magic must still be flowing through the woods!
Hero: That's what's causing the curse?
Balderic Argent (Doomwood Paladin): Aye. If we can find the source of Xargoul's magic… maybe we can destroy it!
Hero: OK. How do we find it?
«Balderic shrugs»
Balderic Argent (Doomwood Paladin): I have no idea.
«The Hero scratches his head»
Hero: Ah.
Balderic Argent (Doomwood Paladin): But maybe I know someone who can help.
Balderic Argent (Doomwood Paladin): On the other shore of Doomwood Forest, you will find STYGIS.
Balderic Argent (Doomwood Paladin): He is the ferryman who takes people over to the Isle of the Dead and the Tower of Necromancy.
Balderic Argent (Doomwood Paladin): If anyone will know more about Xargoul, it's him.
«Balderic scratches his head»
Balderic Argent (Doomwood Paladin): Just… uh… don't mention that you're working with me.
«The Hero nods»
Hero: Got it.
