• This here's Hero's Compass where we leave our cares in the ice and enjoy ourselves. Join in.
• What's going on here?
• Who are you?
• Never mind. I'll be going.
• Balanced Crusader's Mace
• Caer Longbow
• Keg Brawl. Most people are busy with the Great Hunt, so other events are on hold.
• Tell me about Keg Brawl.
• It's brutal fun. You're on ice, running for your life, with kegs flying right at you. The brewers in charge of it can tell you more. Here, I'll mark their spot on the map for you.
• Explorer's Focus
• That's all for now. Good-bye.
• I'm Gunnhilda. I help organize the challenges and events we offer in Hoelbrak—like Keg Brawl. It's the most fun you can have on ice without freezing to death.
• Hunter's Harpoon
• Priory Explorer's Scepter
• I see. Thanks for your time.
• Hunter's Speargun
• Experimental Collection Staff
• You there. Do you know the legend of Lake Mourn?
• Hunter's Trident
• Just passing through. Take care.
• Ottar, the fiercest competitor in Hoelbrak. I spend a lot of time out here around Lake Mourn. I'm an expert on that, too.
• Competition, huh? What game?
• Reinforced Explorer's Focus
• I am the master Keg Brawler. I've played ever since I could hold a keg without tipping over. I hold many records.
• Do you play anything else besides Keg Brawl?
• Tell me about it.
• That's enough for now.
• Ah, Lake Mourn. One of the best places in all of Tyria. It was a glacier until Hrothbeir came.
• Hrothbeir?
• What about that brewery on the hill?
• I've learned enough.
• When our ancestors first settled here, a glacial shelf loomed over the settlement. Asgeir told his friend Hrothbeir to smash it before it crashed down on them.
• Taking on a glacier? That must have been a sight.
• Courage Brewery, with the best ale this side of the Shiverpeaks. Head on over to the Biergarten if you're thirsty.
• Perhaps.
• There's nothing but Keg Brawl. After you've played, you'll understand. And don't ask me to play you. I'd down you faster than a stein of cold ale.
• I'll look for Keg Brawl. Thanks.
• Legend goes, Hrothbeir smashed at the glacier for days on end without rest. Finally, the shelf fell away from the settlement. There Hrothbeir stood, raising his hammer in triumph.
• A great legend.
• Hah! Hardly. It took him days of precise hammering, but the glacier finally fell away. All that remained was the tip. Hrothbeir stood upon it, victorious.
• That was quite a feat, indeed.
• That it is. Asgeir named the newly created island Hrothbeir's Rest, for that is where Hrothbeir sat exhausted after his victory.
• Incredible.
• Lion's Arch Asura Gate
• Bear shelter you. I am Alarrin of the Frost, Speaker for Bear and keeper of her hall.
• I want to know more about Bear.
• You have bested Faolain!
• I must be going.
• Of course. Ask away.
• What does Bear represent?
