43. Player: We should have taken Marcus while we had the chance.HAV_Jaheira_State_WasWarned
380. : That was my failing. I thought to turn their trap to my advantage, and wound up snaring us all the tighter.
70. Player: You should have seen this coming.HAV_Jaheira_State_WasWarned = False
106. : I thought I was prepared for treachery. But an all-out assault... I blundered into their trap like a fool.
458. : You have the honour of making up for my mistake.
173. : I trust that you will.HAV_Jaheira_State_MissionGiven, HAV_Jaheira_Knows_ToldKethericImmortalitySource = False

474. Player: I saw Ketheric. He regenerated before my eyes.MOO_Execution_Event_KethericRegenerated
411. : Gruesome, isn't it? I'm glad you survived the encounter, at least.devnote
364. : Did you learn anything more?
325. Player: Ketheric wants Isobel brought to him - that might be a way to get further inside.MOO_Executioner_Event_AskedToKidnapIsobel, HAV_TakingIsobel_State_IsobelTakenAway = False, HAV_Jaheira_Knows_SentToKidnapIsobel = FalseHAV_Jaheira_Knows_SentToKidnapIsobel
356. : Not an option. Even if Isobel were willing, the inn would not survive without her. devnote
193. : But if Ketheric fears her... all the better. It means whatever he's planning can still be stopped.
421. : Find what makes him vulnerable. It remains the only way.
160. Player: Not yet. Parts of the Towers aren't open to me yet.
436. : The great General is paranoid. Good - that means he's protecting something.devnote
397. : I'll wager it's the source of his invulnerability. He'd protect that at any cost.
351. Player: Ketheric is calling himself a 'Chosen of the Absolute' now.
110. : 'Chosen'. That's three masters Ketheric has served. Our paladin isn't very picky.
200. : He's aligned himself with mind flayers, but I cannot see what he gains.
20. : Perhaps we can force it out of him once we have him up against a wall.
326. : Was there anything else?

197. Player: I wanted to ask you about something.
98. : Then speak.devnote
283. Player: I've heard your name before. Where?GLO_Jaheira_Knows_Jaheira = FalseGLO_Jaheira_Knows_Jaheira
125. : Some crusty ballad-monger, I expect.devnote
450. : They have me slaying gods or laying with them, depending on the bard.devnote
223. Player: I feel your pain - my companion Volo is loose with the truth too.GLO_Volo_State_AtCamp
16. : Volothamp Geddarm? That old fraud should be dust a century past. devnote
345. : But then, lies live forever, and he's half-made of the stuff. devnote
58. Player: I heard it was both.
5. : You'll have to sing that one for me, when all of this is done. In any case, it was a lifetime ago by now. And for all our victories, we remain on the back foot.
238. : We fight, we die, and we just hope that when our time comes, there is someone else to take our place.
357. Player: Stirring words. Is that how you inspire your Harpers?
67. : No need of that. Every Harper is a bard unto themselves, I'm afraid.devnote
350. : Help me root out this cult, and they can spin stories about you for a change.End
374. Player: Surely you made more of a difference than that.
360. : The songs would have you believe we saved the Realms entire. Perhaps we did.
461. : They simply refuse to stay saved.End
147. Player: Let me guess - I'm 'someone else'.
424. : That remains to be seen. Criterion number one: make Ketheric bleed.
318. : Criterion two: survive that thing in your skull.End
177. Player: Leave.End
140. Player: So which was it?
205. : There are as many versions of a tale as there are people to tell it. Let that satisfy you. And anyway, the heroics of old have done seemingly little to safeguard the present.devnote
268. Player: You don't seem overly pleased to be remembered.
343. : It was a lifetime ago. And for all our victories, the world is no more balanced than when we began.devnote
270. Player: How did the Harpers first learn of the Absolute?
32. : The same way Harpers learn of anything - poking noses where they don't belong.devnote
324. : We sent an agent to infiltrate this cult - the latest fad among the city's bored nobility, I thought.
445. : Until that same agent returned and tried to plant a knife in my neck. My first encounter with a True Soul.
355. : I am glad ours ended on friendlier terms.
29. : From there, I made some inquiries of my own - saw first-hand how easily the cult could turn friend to foe, with but the twist of a tadpole.
426. : And so I gathered my Harpers and came to the source - Moonrise Towers.
349. Player: Leave.End

78. Player: We were all caught off-guard.
305. : Honesty will serve you better than charity. I blundered into their trap, and it cost us.
166. Player: Let's just focus on defeating Ketheric.
422. : Agreed. We must end the threat at Moonrise altogether. With your help, we stand every chance of doing just that.ORI_Laezel_State_StartedMoonrise
446. Player: I assume you have some payback in mind?
165. : You know me already. But you'll have the honour of making up for my blunder here.

226. : Marcus? If he'd managed to get himself infected without a single Harper noticing, I'd be... very surprised.

184. Player: Absolutely not. Marcus is a danger to you all.Roll (Charisma, Persuasion) vs 18 (0)
310. [RollResult] True
209. : Let's be discreet about this. If Marcus is what you say, there's no telling what kind of reinforcements he might be able to summon.devnote
152. : All right. He's in Isobel's room upstairs. Play along with his ruse for now while I gather a few trusted Harpers - but don't let him get his hands on Isobel!

22. [RollResult] False
100. : A Harper's gaze can only be turned by proof. By the looks of it, a tall tale is all you have to offer.
306. : You might be... eccentric, but you're still our best hope of finishing off Ketheric Thorm.
412. : I hope I'm not mistaken.End
