Doubtless, you have heard of the crazed wizard [wizard]. Given the enormous power [he/she] has at [his/her] command, [the ruler's title] [the ruler] has been delaying any offensive move against [wizard], but that strategy is at an end. The [the ruler's title] has asked us to send someone to destroy the psychopathic mage. In return for a magic [reward], would you do that for us?
The people of [the region] have been demanding that the Mages Guild take a stand against the mad wizard who has been terrorizing the land for some time. Now, by order of the Archmagister himself, we are doing just that. I know it's hardly the assignment a scholarly institution should give, but would you be willing and able to pay the mad wizard a call and then hack him into pieces?
Refuse Quest
Damn. I had hoped that we could count on you in this affair.
Accept Quest
Excellent. I knew that you would not let us down, [your first name]. Now then, [wizard] will be in [his/her] laboratory, [the dungeon], for at most [first part time] days before moving on to a new location. The [the ruler's title] wants word that the mage is dead in [first part time] days, so do not tarry after doing the deed. I will see you in [first part time] days. Thank you and good luck, [your first name].
Quest Fail
I think you ought to be moving along on that matter we spoke of, don't you?
Quest Complete
Once again, you astonish me with your skill and efficiency, [your first name]. An excellent job -- the [the ruler's title] will be as pleased as I am. Here is the [reward] I promised. Enjoy it.
Rumors During Quest
The Mages Guild has sent someone to deal with that mad wizard in [the dungeon].
Everyone's just holding their breath, waiting for that wizard's next move.
Rumors Postfailure
Not even the Mages Guild could do anything about that crazed sorcerer.
No one knows where that [wizard] is, but nowhere's safe until [he/she]'s gone.
Rumors Postsuccess
Hopefully, that's the last we hear of the mad wizard of [the dungeon].
It seems kind of quiet now that we don't have a mad wizard to worry about.
Questor Postsuccess
Hello, [your first name]. I hope that mad wizard didn't hurt you too much.
Questor Postfailure
So, you're back, but you didn't slay the Mad Wizard of [the dungeon], did you? Hopeless, [your first name], hopeless.
