• People keep talking about a type of humor, but I cannot find any references.
• That surprises me. We have an extensive humor collection. What type, did you say?
• Skrittological humor. Humor about the skritt?
• I'm, ah, fairly certain you heard the word wrong.
• Is it true a norn once spent weeks staring at the tablets slowly spinning?
• I heard he was waiting for one particular tablet to return. Hah!
• That's hilarious. Whatever happened to him?
• I became an archivist. Don't you students have work to do?
• I just read an interesting report transmitted from our scholars in the field.
• I'd love to hear about it, but my headmaster needs some scrolls from the stacks.
• Gah, I hate the stacks. The dust in there never settles below my ears!
• I know. I have to take an air bath after I spend any time in there at all.
• I worry that my work here has more theoretical than practical applications.
• It's a dilemma. We need practical answers now more than ever. What are you working on?
• Oh, I'm researching the maximum airspeed velocity of natural, spherical, uh...objects. Yeah!
• Ah, well. Good luck with that.
• I had a brainstorm. I can revolutionize our transcription process.
• Excellent. Describe your process to me.
• It's simple and elegant. We dip stone tablets in ink and press them against vellum.
• Hmm. Wouldn't that transfer the tablet's raised letters to the vellum...backwards?
• Why is everything here written in Krytan? All those loops and swirls make my hands ache.
• The humans say it's because Krytan is the most universal language.
• How can it be universal? It only has one word for "hunt."
• Gixx wants a current assessment of our defenses.
• Didn't we perform a full diagnostic just last week?
• He wants us to run it again. Something must be up. He seems agitated.
• More than usual? I mean, of course. We should proceed immediately.
• My research seems to be heading into a forbidden area.
• You must follow the trail where it leads. You never know where the answer may lie.
• I agree. We don't have the luxury to be squeamish, but I wonder if this is a matter for the Archons.
• If your prey can turn on us all, then you should proceed carefully.
• What are you working on these days?
• My headmaster has me researching dragon vulnerabilities. You?
• I'm studying the strengths of different weapons against the dragons.
• Hmm. We should probably pool our data.
• Do you have time for a tricky translation?
• I'm in between assignments. What do you have for me?
• A recently unearthed account of the battle against the Great Destroyer.
• Intriguing. That might contain a wealth of knowledge. What's the problem?
• It appears to be a mishmash of dwarven and old Ascalonian.
• Tenstrikes Mercenary
• The farmer yelled, "No, moa!" when it ran into the catacombs to escape the charr.
• Thank you for the warning.
• Sven wants to forge and sell new weapons, but lacks the ore to do so. The nearby dredge caves are filled with ore, as well as dredge miners who will fend off invaders.
• The farmer reluctantly went in after the moa, knees knocking, and said "Yes, moa" as the bird ran to him, its knees knocking too.
• Tear out a plank of wood.
• Find another book.
• This book by Watchman Pramas is the definitive tome on the history of the ancient relic used in the war against the charr.
• Jug[s] of Martini
• King Doric constructed Stormcaller on Horn Hill north of Rin, his capital city, in the year 0 AE.
