==== The [[Forest]] ====
* ''(Dealt with [[Andrik]] and [[Brynna]], not knowing about the cult of [[Absolute]]):'' “Well. That quite the load of gobbledygook, wasn't it?”
** ''(Responding remark):'' “Whatever the Absolute it, it certainly seems to command a lot of devotion.”
** ''(Heard about the cult previously from [[Sazza]]):'' “The Absolute - that's the mystery god Sazza mentioned. Eerie common ground, if you ask me.”
** ''(Responding remark):'' “Goblins and humans worshipping the same god? Eerie common ground, if you ask me.”
* ''(Saw the [[Edowin|Edowin’s]] tadpole exerting from his body):'' “ I have to say, it's one thing to have a parasite in your head, quite another not to know it's there.”
** ''(Responding remark):'' “I wish mine would give up so easily. Though without requiring such extreme motivation, of course.”
* ''(Found Exsanguinated Boar):'' “That boar shows no signs it was killed by wolves or hunters, and yet there's terror etched into its dead eyes.”

** ''(Responding remark):'' “She put up a fight, at least. A brave effort.”
* ''(Found [[Demir]] and [[Johl]] dead)'' “These killings were deliberately brutal. There's something near that relishes in carnage.
* ''(Found a shrine to Selûne, [[Religion]] check):''
* ''(Finding carnage on the Sunlit Wetlands beach)'' "Blood… I don't like where this is going."
** ''(Successful):'' "An unusual place to find a shrine to Selûne, but there it is."
** ''([[Investigation]] check, successful)'' “This is the work of redcaps - vicious by nature. They could already be hunting us…”
** ''(Failed):'' "A shrine. Looks forlorn."
** ''(Failed)'' “I don't recognise these claw marks, but they're telling enough in their own right.

** ''(Tried to open without disarming magical seal):'' “Ow! Protective magic. Should have known.”
* ''(Betrayed Astarion to Gandrel)'' “Easy as that, is it? I hope you wouldn't give the rest of us up so easily.”

* ''(Picked up the scroll with the [[Selûnite Rite]]):'' "Coming-of-age rites for children born into worship of Selûne. A touch drastic, no?"

'''Elsewhere in the Wetlands/Bog:'''

'''In the [[Riverside Teahouse]]/[[Gnarled Teahouse]]:'''

** ''(Successful):'' “That is no ordinary fireplace. There's something there, beyond the flames.”
** ''(Failed):'' “How the flames always mesmerise the soul.”
* ''(After Ethel hasn’t succeed to extract the tadpole):'' “Netherese. A portentous word. Combine it with mind flayers, and it's... unspeakable.”
** ''(Responding remark):'' “The parasite is somehow infused with Netherese magic - more powerful, more sinister than it has any right to be. We must find out how.”
* ''(Ethel fled from the house, peaceful encounter):'' “That was a sudden exit from the stage. Can't help but wonder where she's gone.”
** ''(Ethel fled from the house escaping a combat):'' “We've got auntie on the run, but I'm sure she still has a few tricks up her sleeve.”
* ''(Reached out to [[Connor Vinderblad|Connor’s]] coffin while the hag is still alive):'' “Ouch! That ''stung''.”

** ''(Freed from Ethel’s masks mind control):'' “At last! How foul it was to have hag in the head.”
** ''(Other hag’s victims act neutral when wearing a Whispering Mask):'' “No one's attacking me, eh? This mask is certainly doing the trick.”
* ''(Wandered into Ethel’s lair, the hag is not there):'' “Gods, this stench of death is overpowering.”
** ''(Responding remark):'' “Keep your guard up. When the stench of death hangs in the air, a killer is near.”
* ''(Entered [[Overgrown_Tunnel#Acrid_Workshop|Acrid Workshop]]):'' “My word, this is a place where nightmares come to die.”
