• That was a completely laic project.
• I'm surprised it succeeded.
• Have you seen my special little flask? I'm very attached to that thing. It has my grandfather's teeth inlaid around the edges.
• Was it red?
• No. Why? Have you seen a red one?
• Yeah. Another norn traveling through here yesterday had one.
• Well, now I don't know what to think.
• People keep talking about a type of humor, but I can't find any references.
• That surprises me. We have an extensive humor collection. What type, did you say?
• Skritological humor. Humor about the skritt?
• I'm, ah, fairly certain you heard the word wrong.
• I think this place is getting to me... Some nights, I hear howling coming from the direction of the frozen falls.
• It's probably just the wind. I wouldn't worry about it. That crazy old coot Dremus would warn us if there were any danger.
• You're right. It must just be the wind.
• Those steam creatures are completely incomprehensible. Where did they come from? Why are they here?
• Yeah and why is there a giant, wiggly one?
• Yeah! Wait... What?

• Now, the stacks are completely cross-referenced by subject, author, title, and era.

• I will conquer all the knowledge within these walls.
• The Priory is sound, structurally, mechanically, and magically.

• The codification system requires a complete overhaul.
• Alfvald

• Blocking the skritt tunnels has enraged Korritkir the Chucker. Now he's out for blood and is going after the miners. Defend them and kill Korritkir.
• Kill Korritkir the Chucker.
• Korritkir the Chucker
• Skritt Minion[s]
• So, is it dead, then?
• It seems to be. But I'd like to stab it a few more times anyway. Just to be sure.
• Ugh, it smells like a bunch of dead rats left out in the sun.
• It sounds angry. I don't want to die here!
• Shouldn't we be preparing for whatever the skritt bring next? Closing off their skritt holes probably upset them.
• Nah. Skritt have tiny little brains. They probably already forgot all about it.
• Korritkir the Chucker
• The miners have expanded their operation into skritt territory. Naturally, this has enraged the skritt and is causing them to flow out of a number of tunnels. Close the Skritt Holes so the miners can continue their work.
• Use boulders to block off the skritt tunnels.
