He's a friend of da Redblade family and I'm sure he'd be willing to help. Just tell him I sent you.

I don't know what part it plays in this, but like everything else, I'm sure it's important. Perhaps there is another portal around dat was destroyed, like it was in Taelosia.

I want to say she was part of da port authority, but I can't quite remember. I also don't remember her name, or if I even ever knew it, but I do remember dat she was one of da best I ever dealt with. Take da hilt to her, if you can find her, and see what she can do with it. One more thing, she's a fan of her own tongues, so be prepared for dat when you speak with her.");

Da third was a [" .. eq.say_link("maze") .. "] of some sort, and da final one was in a [" .. eq.say_link("field of blood") .. "] . At da end, I saw four eyes dat appeared in da center of da hilt.

In any case, I know how to get da sword put back together. It'll involve a trip to see my brother, [" .. eq.say_link("Krekk") .. "].");

All I know is dat it keeps calling to me, leading me... and you... to da next step of da puzzle. Right now it's telling me dat da next step of da puzzle resides in da labryinth.

I don't know any more than dat, except dat there is... something there. My visions about this are chaotic and I don't know what to make of them.

After dat, you must let da sword guide you to da end of your journey. I know now dat you are da one who will fulfill this journey, who will see it through to da end. Hurry forth into da causeway, do not stray. Then, and only then will da power of da sword be fully realized. Hurry now, you don't have much time!");
