| Nessa | The tale of Brutus was a popular one in the schools of Theopolis, taught in the hopes of deterring students from ambitions not condoned by the Templar. Brutus was Warden of Axiom Prison and one of the most feared men in the Eternal Empire. But there the histories end... and the myth begins, with Brutus commissioning a witch to transform him, in a mad attempt at immortality. A moment of hubris that didn't end well... for anyone. If it's true then Brutus has my pity. Some of us pay too dearly for our mistakes. Yet if you insist on learning from your own mistakes then please, take one of these. You might need it. |
| Nessa | For some, death is welcomed with open arms. Did you end Brutus' suffering out of avarice, or mercy? Only you know the answer to that one. |
| Tarkleigh | There's a fine line between man and monster. Brutus, the Warden of Axiom Prison... he crossed that line long ago. A big lad, and as you know from Hillock, big lads are slow. Hit and run, that's the way to cut them down to size. Unless there's thaumaturgy involved. Then forget the 'hitting' bit. Just run. |
| Tarkleigh | The Warden's free of his own prison? Well, since you're so bloody determined to cheat the britches off death, you'd better have one of these... for luck. And when they write the song about you, just be sure to mention that it was Tarkleigh who taught you everything you know. |
| Bestel | Brutus, Warden of Axiom Prison. The way I heard it, albeit from ale-soaked sailors, fear unmanned the great Brutus. Not fear of man, nor beast... fear of death. Life is like wine, best enjoyed in moderation. I don't envy Brutus' hangover. |
| Brutus' Lead Sprinkler | "A sprinkle of liquid encouragement is often required to garnish the perfect confession." - Brutus, Warden of Axiom |
| Shavronne's Revelation | "Shavronne held Sanity in her right hand and Revelation in her left. Brutus chose the left hand." - Kadavrus, Surgeon to the Umbra |
| Shavronne's Pace | Shavronne raced to Brutus' side, her last hope against the Karui tide. |
| The Warden's Brand | "I don't always have a flame handy when a fresh delinquent walks through our gates." - Brutus, Warden of Axiom |

| TarkleighOnRoad NPCTextAudio | I've travelled inland, on the Emperor's Road via the Prisoner's Gate. Had to skirt around Axiom Prison... that's the holdfast of Brutus, the Warden. Bloody treacherous trip, it was. Worth it? There's forest inland. Game, berries, fruit... more food than we can scrounge here. But most here wouldn't survive the journey. Would be a damn sight easier if we could pass through the Prison. Tell you what... you carve us a path up the coast, find us a way past or through Brutus, and you'll have more than a few lives owing to you. |
| BestelOnBrutus NPCTextAudio | Brutus, Warden of Axiom Prison. The way I heard it, albeit from ale-soaked sailors, fear unmanned the great Brutus. Not fear of man, nor beast... fear of death. Life is like wine, best enjoyed in moderation. I don't envy Brutus' hangover. |
| EramirOnBlockage NPCTextAudio | I've read about Shavronne of Umbra, and what she did to the Warden at Axiom. You did well to end Brutus' sorry existence. But Shavronne's barricade, that's sad news indeed. There is little enough freedom in Wraeclast as it is, but to be stranded on that dismal coast... I pity the exiles to come. Would I know how to lower the barricade? Afraid not. I was a bit distracted the last time I took the pass. Hungry goatmen to avoid on that side, Alira's thralls on this side. |
| ShavronneDiary NPCTextAudio | Still the Karui barbarians advance upon us. Lioneye is dead, his legion slaughtered, along with every Eternal man, woman and child from Lioneye's Watch to the foot of our Axiom. Should the need arise we shall retreat through Prisoners Gate, raising my barricade behind us. Yet our salvation is at hand. Foul times demand heroic deeds, and through my arts our Lord Brutus will arise anew to defend us. May the dry sands quench their thirst with Karui blood when our mighty Warden delivers his judgement upon them. |
| PietyDeliveredOrgans3 NPCTextAudio | I remember when we first crossed paths in Axiom Prison. Logic dictated that you, a feral little girl of the wild, were to die under Brutus' bloody fists. You've proved logic wrong, time and again. Now here you are. Here we are. Defying logic one last time. |
| PietyOnGodlessThree NPCTextAudio | Malachai chose his three most loyal servants to guard those precious innards. His Godless Three. Inquisitor Maligaro, Shavronne of Umbra, and Doedre Darktongue. If the history books are accurate, High Templar Voll burned Maligaro and Doedre at the stake on his way to lay siege to Sarn. He didn't have to worry himself with Shavronne. Brutus had already sorted her out. Yet slaves of nightmare seem to be shackled just as tightly to life as they are to the Beast. I, of course, am living proof of that. Don't worry yourself with that little detail, though. Shackles are made to be unlocked. |

| TarkleighOnShavronne NPCTextAudio | Axiom Prison has been fairly quiet since you saw fit to retire its warden. Afraid that's no longer the case. Shavronne of Umbra, the very witch that made Brutus the man he was. I don't know if she's a ghost, a ghoul or some other death-scorning creature I've never heard of, but she's up there, tinkering away with her black arts and twisting nature around her bony old fingers. Honestly, I don't care why she's come back or what cruelty she's brewing up there. She's a boil that needs lancing before the infection spreads. |
