- I'll see if I can help get your daughter back.
- How very practical.
- That is noble of you. Please understand that I won't be paying you though.
- Wouldn't dream of it.
- Of course, it matters! If you've come from Lion's Arch, then you may have news for me. It's been three years since I retired from the Lionguard. I was a captain, quite important. Since I retired, I'm eager to hear whatever news travelers bring me.
- I've never been to Lion's Arch. What's it like there?
- Hm. That does sound like trouble.
- I don't have time for this. Good day.
- It's one of the most lively cities in Tyria. All races are welcome and call it home. The commerce is vivacious, and the nightlife...well, let's just say my wife moved me out here to the boonies for a reason. It got its origins as a pirate stronghold, you see. These days, it's booming!
- Why would pirates build a city?
- I may be hurt, but I can still help. Let's set up some defenses.
- To protect themselves from Orrian undead, of course. Why else? When Orr rose, the seagoing vessels were driven to the ruins of old Lion's Arch. They rebuilt the city in their glorious image. Oh, I do miss it there. Such great diversity and activity. (sigh)
- It sounds interesting. Thank you.

- You're not? Wait. You're not a pirate, are you? If so, I'm going to have Wrelk give those guards a good talking to. I knew we shouldn't have hired humans. They're cheap, but you get what you pay for.
- You caught me. I'm a pirate.
- I think I'll just go now.
- I knew it! You had that look about you. Just take what you want and get out of my house.
- Sure.
- Finally! What kept you, dear? The beds need making, the kitchen needs scrubbing, the sails need mending, and don't get me started about the yard.
- Um, I'm not the help.
- You've mistaken me for someone else. Good day.
- My poor baby. She's so small and alone. Really! What's keeping Tholaun? You'd think—with the exorbitant amount I pay him—he'd be back by now.
- Missing child? I'll go find her.
- Hard to find good help these days.
- My offspring, Mipp, was kidnapped by pirates. It's quite dreadful. She's such a pretty thing. Her bodyguard, Tholaun, went to rescue her, but he isn't back yet.
- I'll track them down and see if I can lend a hand.
- How unfortunate.
- Thank you so much. If you find that lazy oaf, Tholaun, give him a piece of my mind, would you?
- I'll return your daughter to safety.
- Why do you speak to me, traveler?
- Would tell me what's going on here?
- I was curious about what you do.
- No reason.
- I work for that grub of an asura—Wrelk—and his intolerable wife. My task is to mind their daughter for them.
- You don't like your employers much. Why work for them?
- Thanks for soothing my curiosity.
- Years ago, I fell on hard times and took the job. Guarding a little cub like Mipp is easy money. However, she's a very bright child with very dull parents. I would be remiss in my duties if I left her.
- That's completely adorable. She's charmed you, hasn't she?
- So they're not all bad then, right?
- Your work ethic is unquestionable.
- She's tiny, but her heart is strong. She's a good kid.
- I see she's in good hands.
- The pirates have taken the mansion and driven us out of it.
- Ambrite Orichalcum Ring
- The child is the only good one of the lot, but worse than her parents is her uncle, Brakk, brother to Broga. He's shifty and up to no good.
- That's not very reassuring.
- Now is not the time for talk.
