==== [[Shadow-Cursed Lands]] ====
* ''(Entering the Shadow-Cursed Lands for the first time):'' “I've lived in darkness for centuries, but never found any like this... unsettling.”
** ''(Responding remark):'' “Alas, it's the only path to Moonrise Towers. We have to push into the dark.”
* ''(Looking at the distorted land within Shadow Curse):'' “A curse that desecrates the ground itself? Almost impressive. ”

* ''(Found old war machines, [[History]] check):''
** ''(Successful):'' “These siege weapons are a good century old, I'd say. Quite the vintage. ”

* ''(Found non-dousable torches):'' “It's still burning - the damn thing won't go out.”
** ''(Trying to recognize the spell, [[Arcana]] check successful):'' “Is it a Continual Flame spell, I wonder? I've heard they light tombs brilliantly.”
** ''(Failed):'' “In my expert opinion, it seems to be... magic?”
* ''(Found fresh flowers near [[Oliver|Oliver’s]] hovel, not knowing the story):'' “Unusual for a flower to grow among such decay.”
** ''(Knowing about him from [[Halsin]]):'' “Flowers blooming in darkness - the sign the musky bear-fellow mentioned.”
* ''(Looking for Oliver in hide-and-seek game, [[Perception]] check):''
** ''(Successful):'' “There you are! Come out, little one.”
** ''(Failed):'' “Where is that spooky little brat?”

'''Feeling the effect of the [[Shadow Curse]]:'''

** ''(Responding remark 3 - looking for a solution):'' “We just need some light... banish this darkness...”
* ''(Feeling the effect of Shadow Curse, looking for light source):'' “I just need some light... just need to be free of this dark...”

** ''(Responding remark 2):'' “Anything to keep those shadows at bay.”
** ''(Responding remark 3):'' “You're all too right... I can feel it clawing at me.”
* ''(Feeling the effect of Shadow Curse, answers to [[Shadowheart]] who doesn’t, 1):'' “It affects me just fine. I need some light...”
** ''(Answer to Shadowheart 2):'' “Alas, not all of us are so lucky.”
* ''(Negated the Curse with a light source):'' “I can feel the curse withering. It must be the light...”
* ''(A torch snuffed out in deeper curse, 1):'' “The torch is gone again. This curse just will not let up.”
** ''(Remark 2):'' “Stay lit, you useless stick!”
** ''(Remark 3):'' “In the dark again. Damn this curse.”
** ''(Remark 4):'' “The dark's strong enough to snuff out a torch? Well I don't love that.”
Dealing with Shadow Curse victims:
* ''(Found the [[Dead Druid's Journal]], [[Nature]] check):''
** ''(Successful):'' “The druids have been studying this place for a while. Not that it's helped.”
** ''(Failed):'' “The idea of this darkness spreading is not comforting.”
* ''(Read graverobber’s note):'' “Ellie May? I'm sure I saw that name on a tombstone...”
** ''(Read graverobber’s note, saw the grave/got the [[Family Ring|ring]]):'' “Seems he never got her ring. Lucky for me.”
** ''(Found Ellie May’s grave):'' “What a mess - it's half grave, half animal burrow.”
** ''(Found animal tracks near Ellie May’s grave):'' “Something scuttled through here. Where was it off to?”
** ''(Found animal’s burrow down the ledge):'' “Hello. What's that hiding in the dirt?”
** ''(Saw an animal killed by the Shadow Curse):'' “Consumed by that blasted curse... Greedy.”
* ''(Saw the dead grove tieflings, [[Investigation]] check):''
** ''(Successful):'' “Signs of a struggle. For all the good it did them.”
** ''(Failed):'' “Bad enough to die, but to die in a place like this?”
* ''(Saw the dead cursed ox, Investigation check):''
** ''(Successful):'' “Looks like it succumbed to the curse before it died. I bet it was hell to kill.”
** ''(Failed):'' “Stupid beast was probably out of its mind with fear.”
* ''(Saw the dead cursed ox’s master, [[Medicine]] check):''
** ''(Successful):'' “Looks like he was gored by the ox. It must have been chaos here.”

** ''(Responding remark):'' “And she has such a way with words.”
* ''(Set Dolly free but angered her):'' “That was an actual pixie! An adorable, furious pixie.”
** ''(Responding remark to an angered pixie):'' “A pixie's stature, but an ogre's temper. Incredible.”
* ''(Found drider’s route starting point):'' “This must be where the drider collected his victims.”
** ''(Responding remark, defeated the drider 1):'' “I hope the wretched beast is rotting out there.”
** ''(Responding remark, defeated the drider 2):'' “At least they won't be returning. Wretched bloody creatures.”
** ''(Responding remark, haven’t defeated the drider 1):'' “Plenty of chains, cages, and the usual slaver favourites.”
