What people say
Questor Offer
A certain merchant needs to have a monster, a gargoyle to be precise, dispatched. The pay is a modest [gold] gold pieces. Can I have your help in this matter?
Refuse Quest
Hmmm. Not the brave, heroic sort I guess.
Accept Quest
It seems this merchant hired a wizard to build him a grand mansion. Then the poor fool tried to cheat the mage of his wages. The wizard grew angry and animated one of the stone gargoyles on the new mansion. It has been attacking the merchant ceaselessly. Go out to [the dungeon] and kill the thing. You've got [2dung] days to complete the task.
Quest Complete
Hail to the hero, [your name]! Well done! This paltry fee of [gold] is hardly a worthy reward for such a deed.
Rumors During Quest
The Mages Guild has refused to kill that rampaging gargoyle. They claim it's not their fault. Lazy bastards.
Rumors Postfailure
Some merchant was killed recently. I hear that a gargoyle was seen hovering over his body.
Rumors Postsuccess
The Fighters Guild took out a gargoyle. Those guys are good to have around.
Questor Postsuccess
Well done with the gargoyle [your name].
Questor Postfailure
That gargoyle killed the merchant. You should never have taken the job. Now you've made yourself and the guild look bad.

The [monster] is dead. Hopefully that foolish merchant has learned never to cheat a mage.
