What people say

Questor Offer

I don't trust you, [your name]. You are not a member of our order. If you would like to earn my trust, and maybe even a modicum of respect, go kill the [monster] raiding the farms. Are you up to it?

Refuse Quest

I thought so. The heart of a coward beats within your chest. The sight of you makes me ill.

Accept Quest

The [monster] has made its lair in [the dungeon]. Go there and kill it. There may be other [monster]s there, but I don't care. I am only interested in one with a large burn mark on its back. It's the one that has been raiding the peasants. You have [2dung] days.

Quest Complete

Hmmph. You did better than expected, [your name]. Maybe someday you will even be worthy of a membership in the knightly order.

Rumors During Quest

That [monster] is a real nuisance in [quest giver's place].

Many wish the knights would do something about that [monster].

Rumors Postfailure

Thank [a god], and not the knightly order, the [monster] moved on.

It's only natural that the [monster] moved. But it'll return.

Rumors Postsuccess

Everyone is thanking the knights for slaying that [monster].

No one expected the knightly order to do anything about the [monster].

Questor Postsuccess

Awright, kid. After what you did, I can be civil to you.

Questor Postfailure

[monster] Lover, get outta here.

You make me sick, [monster] Lover.

Quest Log Entry

[the quest date]: [quest giver] of the knightly order in [quest giver's place] told me of a [monster] that needs slaying in [the dungeon]. I only have [2dung] days.
