  • Talk to Eramir

    • Area: The Forest Encampment
    NPC:
  • Alira Hand in Amulets: That was almost better than Oriathan chocolate. You keep this trinket... to remember me by on your travels.

    I'd ask you to stay but I think we both know where that would lead. How does the old maxim go? Oh yes: "familiarity breeds contempt, and contempt is murder's concubine."

    A threat? No, my dear. Merely reality.
  • Alira Alira's Rivals: A rat floats belly-up in the river... pleasing news. But a journey half travelled is a journey wasted.

    Put an end to that lumbering oaf in the North and bring me his amulet. Then we'll talk... intimately, and at length.
  • Alira Alira's Rivals: I caught some rats in my traps today. They told me an amusing tale: their rat king, Kraityn... dead. Can't say I'm surprised. You've a powerful aura on you... bright as a sunset before a storm. So let me rub an idea against that hot spirit of yours, see if it catches fire.

    The amulet I wear, sister to the one you took from Kraityn? Oak has its triplet. There's power in these trinkets, enchantment enough to keep my tribe safe.

    Go north, bring me an amulet, and Oak's lying tongue, and I'll make you part of that power. You need friends in Wraeclast, and believe me: I can be a fine friend.
  • Alira Alira's Rivals: The king of rats, Kraityn? Dead. And that big, ugly Oak? Chopped down. You've made quite the impact around here. But I can't say I'm surprised. You've a powerful aura on you... bright as a sunset before a storm.

    Now, someone as resourceful as you would surely not have overlooked Oak's and Kraityn's amulets... the ones like mine here. There's power in those trinkets, enchantment enough to keep my friends and I safe.

    Give me the amulets and I'll gladly make you part of that power. You need friends in Wraeclast, and believe me: I can be a fine friend.
  • Alira Alira's Rivals: I caught some rats in my traps today. They told me an amusing tale. Their rat king, Kraityn... dead. And yet now you're one of Oak's squawking little parrots? Look at the aura on you: bright as the sunset before a storm. Not the mana of a minion.

    Oak's no doubt spun you a line about divvying up the power of the amulets between the two of you. No, He'll take the power for himself and crack your head open like a walnut. Seen him do likes of that a hundred times over.

    Bring me a pair of amulets, and Oak's lying tongue, and I promise to make you part of that power. I believe in friendship, and I can be a fine friend to those who treat me sweetly.
  • Alira Alira's Rivals: Reliable {and} deadly. What a truly lovely combination. I do hope you mentioned my name as Kraityn and Oak bled their last into the dirt. You did? How sweet.

    Now, the amulets, if you please. You and I have hungry spirits to satiate.
  • Eramir Bandit Amulets: You say the Lords of Larceny wore these around their necks? These artefacts, and that ancient gateway to the northwest... crafted by the same hands, I'd venture. Vaal hands.

    And it appears the brigands' trinkets could form a single whole. Give me a moment with them. I used to be good at this sort of thing. Now, this one seems to fit neatly against here, and this third one, well it looks like it...
  • Oak Hand in Amulets: Quite the rush to the head, that. You keep this, as a souvenir of your fine efforts.

    Now be on your way. Find yourself a patch of dirt to call your own, far from here. As you may have gathered, I have little tolerance for neighbours.
  • Oak Oak's Rivals: And so an enemy of hope falls... I doubt Kraityn knew what hit him.

    Alira won't be so straightforward. There's some twisted mana in her veins. Still, a dagger in the belly? Best cure I know for unwanted enchantments.
  • Oak Oak's Rivals: So an enemy of hope has fallen. Kraityn will not be missed. Did you do it for a higher purpose, perhaps? Something worthy... like peace?

    Every day my brethren must battle and die with Alira's thralls of the old road. To spare the lives of many, you need take only one.

    But if peace isn't enough reward for you, bring me the amulet that hangs around Alira's worthless neck. I trust you have Kraityn's in hand already? I thought so. When joined with mine, those trinkets will forge us a new strength, you and I. The strength to bring about peace.
  • Oak Oak's Rivals: The halfwit and the whore are dead? I never thought I'd see the day.

    Now I am king, unquestioned, unrivaled. A fine feeling indeed. Not much of a kingdom to speak of, but at least it's a peaceful one.

    But if peace isn't reward enough for you, give me the amulets that Kraityn and Alira wore around their worthless necks. When joined with mine, those trinkets will forge us a new strength, you and I. The strength to continue to do what we must.
  • Oak Oak's Rivals: Today I am king. Unquestioned, unrivaled. A fine feeling indeed. Not much of a kingdom to speak of, but it's a start.

    Now, hand me those amulets so that I may reward my most resourceful of subjects.

  • Alira Alira's Rivals: Some scared little birds told me you've cut down their tree. A big, ugly Oak. Quite a feat. And yet now you're one of Kraityn's bridge rats? Look at the aura on you: bright as the sunset before a storm. Not the mana of a minion.

    Kraityn's no doubt spun you a line about sharing the power of the amulets with you. No, he'll make sword grips out of your sun-dried entrails. Seen him do the likes a hundred times over.

    Bring me a pair of the amulets, and Kraityn's lying tongue, and I promise to make you part of that power. I believe in friendship, and I can be a fine friend to those who treat me sweetly.
  • Alira Alira's Rivals: You felled an Oak. I knew you had mana to spare. But a journey half travelled is a journey wasted.

    Put an end to that filthy rat in the East and bring me his amulet. Then we'll talk... intimately, and at length.

  • Kraityn Hand in Amulets: Ah, sweeter than mother's milk. Might as well take this pretty husk with you. Something to remember me by.

    Nice working with you, matey. I wish you luck on your travels but, from what I seen, you won't be needing it.
  • Kraityn Kraityn's Rivals: Heard you felled a big tree. Handy work, that. But you're Alira's lap dog, are you? I could be wasting the last of my breath here... you're chasing the wrong tail. Once Alira's done with you, those brave guts of yours will be steaming on the ground.

    Here's the truth of it: Alira cares for nothing and no one. Me? I care about a thing called arithmetic.

    You go take one head, bring me two amulets, and I'll give you half the power. That add up right to you?
  • Kraityn Kraityn's Rivals: Heard you felled a big tree, and got yourself one of the amulets. Handy work, that.

    But you don't seem the kind to leave a job half done. If you can chop down an Oak, you can pull out a weed.

    The weed's got a name: Alira, and I'm sick of seeing her in my garden.
  • Kraityn Kraityn's Rivals: Heard you toppled a big tree. Handy work, that. And if you can chop down an Oak, you can pull out a weed. The weed's got a name: Alira, and I'm sick of seeing her in my garden.

    What's in it for you? The amulets around Oak's and Alira's necks. The ones like mine here. There's power in them beyond reckoning.

    I'm thinking you got one already from old lumber-for-brains. Make it two, bring them to me, and take half the power for yourself. That add up right for you?
  • Kraityn Kraityn's Rivals: Heard you been doing some serious gardenin' around the place. Felled a big, dumb Oak, and plucked an Alira thistle from a foul bed.

    And I'm thinking you got a couple of amulets in your pockets. Ones like mine here. There's power in them, you know. But only when all three get to dance together.

    I'm not greedy, mind. I'm willing to split that power with you, right down the middle.

    Hand me those amulets, and let's see what fate has in store for us.
  • Kraityn Kraityn's Rivals: My gardens all tidy, just like that. I knew you were just the kind of trouble I needed.

    Now, hand me those amulets, and let's see what fate has in store for us.

  • Kraityn Kraityn's Rivals: Heard you pulled a weed out of my garden: the Alira thistle. Handy work, that. But you're Oak's lackey, are you? I could be wasting the last of my breath here but... you're barking up the wrong tree.

    Once he's done with you, your brains will be splattered all over the nearest trunk. Me? I care about a thing called arithmetic.

  • Kraityn Kraityn's Rivals: Heard you pulled a weed out of my garden, and got yourself one of the amulets. Handy work, that.

    But you don't seem the kind to leave a job half done. Remember, there's a tree needs chopping down. Goes by the name of Oak. He's blocking my sun.
  • Kraityn Kraityn's Rivals: Heard you pulled a weed out of my garden: the Alira thistle. Handy work, that. Now there's a tree needs chopping down, too. An Oak. He's blocking my sun.

    What's in it for you? The amulets around Oak's and Alira's necks. The ones like mine here. There's power in them beyond reckoning.

    I'm thinking you got one already from the whore. Make it two, bring them to me, and take half the power for yourself. That add up right for you?

    Every day my brethren must battle and die with Kraityn's bridge rats. To spare the lives of many, you need take only one.

    Kraityn won't be so straightforward. Those twin blades of his? He calls them his "daughters", and two sharper-tongued maidens you will never meet.

    Now I am king, unquestioned, unrivaled. A fine feeling indeed. Not much of a kingdom to speak of, but at least it's a peaceful one.

  • Eramir Bandit Amulets: I'm so sorry, my friend. Are you well? Yes, you are apparently intact. Remarkable considering... for the barest moment there you were something altogether different. I'm not afraid to admit it... a rather unnerving version of yourself.

    If I were you I'd dispense with that artefact down the deepest, darkest hole that I could find.
  • Greust Bandit Lords: You are a hunter of man. Today you have hunted bandits. Tomorrow, when you are restless, will you hunt us? You should go, find another hunting ground. Leave us in peace.
