- Oh, you look interesting. We don't see many of your kind. You must be here on very important business. Have you been to see the Pale Tree?
- Novice
- You're so lucky. I love my plants here, but a part of me wishes I were destined for greater things. I will probably die here, tending this garden.
- You obviously have gardening skills.
- Keep up the good work.
- Yes, I saw in my Dream that I would be a gardener. My connection to plants is strong. I have a special affinity for medicinal herbs.
- What purpose do your herbs serve?
- Historian
- We use them to keep the sweet animals of the jungle healthy. And occasionally, a human or norn will come through covered with jungle fly bites. Poor things.
- Historian
- Historian
- No. I'm not done with this section. Move along.
- Shh!
- Shh!
- So good to see you, Valiant %str1%. I wish you success on your Wyld Hunt.
- Recall the nearby facet.
- Welcome to Rime's Garden. I'm afraid we don't have any herbs ready to trade or sell.
- Leave.
- The Zephyrites, yes. They inherited a thankless and difficult job from the Brotherhood of the Dwarves.
- They didn't understand what they were taking on, but I believe they do now.
- I was in the Brotherhood of the Dwarves.
- I am now its sole surviving member. We were the keepers of Glint's legacy.
- Say hello to Caithe for me, when you see her, Valiant. Word has it that your path and hers are deeply entwined.
- Will do.
- Oh! Watch where you're stepping, would you? These plants are quite fragile.
- I thought they were weeds.
- Oh, sparks. Alchemy spare me from lost tourists.
- I just wanted to ask a question.
- Glint had the power to communicate with her mind. She learned language from humans this way.
- According to her, other dragons speak and think in something I hesitate to call a language. But not Glint.
- I suppose as long as I have to be here, I have to listen to your inane questions. Go ahead.
- What's there to do around here?
- She learned that humans and other races were not her enemies, but allies to be nurtured.
- Well, dumpling, welcome to the armpit of Lionguard havens. We've got crabs to the north, krait to the east, hylek to the south, and skale to the west. And, my job is to keep them all off the road.
- Thus, she became a protector of the Tyrian races. We recognized the importance of this, as did some exceptional humans.
- Glint foretold the future in the Flameseeker Prophecies over a thousand years ago.
- You betcha! Feel free to get your hands and blade dirty out there. The more you do, the less I have to. Just try not to get yourself killed. The paperwork would destroy the last of my will to live.
- The brotherhood believed that she would one day become an Elder Dragon. She was old and wise, well on her way.
- Welcome to the fold. I remember when I was new, like you. I still experience the thrill that comes with knowing you're going to awaken the world.
- Awaken the world?
- You can imagine how it might have changed the world if she had survived long enough to become that powerful.
- Of course. How can nature evolve if its inhabitants deny the darkest urges of their souls?
- Ah, yes. Only you asura would attempt to quantify nature itself. But then, your people are somewhat limited. No offense.
- I see you eyeing my hounds. Perhaps you feel drawn to training them?
- I might. What's involved?
- By attempting to define the undefinable, you actually move further from the truth rather than closer.
- We beat them until they know only obedience and savagery. They must fear their master to the point of sacrificing themselves to avoid their master's ire.
- The Eternal Alchemy, nature, our world, the All—however you want to name it—is beyond understanding.
- They're going to love dragging down the lines in your face. You look like you smile far too often.
- My smile has thorns.
