He must be part of the mage guild.
How true... My future in the Society looks bleak.
Is your research such a problem then?
No, my friend, quite the opposite - but certain people just cannot work with a genius! I have assembled a perfect copy of a genuine activator. It is something radical.
What do you mean?
Ancient teleport sites like this one behind me only function with special activators - each teleporter has its own activator. Unfortunately we have only found a few of these elven wonders - but if my prototype works, then we shall not need them. A few more tests and it will be ready. Well, here you are - so you may as well assist me - just for old times' sake...
Their relations will never be explained. We'll just have to accept that our hero is a friend of Ku Klux Klan.
Take this activator and activate the neighboring site. I will mark it plainly on your map.
Any news from the south?
The Society found out that the Orcs invaded because of religion...
The Orcs and religion? Hard to believe, somehow...
It is a said a mysterious holy man is going among the tribes, prophesying the return of Aziraal.
Bah! Superstition! Didn't the orcs nail him to the gates of Gor Gamaar like they did with all those false prophets before?
I do not know - but I DO know that the tribes have united for the first time in history. This war is the most serious conflict to erupt in 300 years.
Oh, please. I'm sure the whole race of man, dwarves and elves will unite again and save the day. Surely that's how it'll end. And our sister would have absolutely NOTHING to do with all these nonsense we just discussed.
Farewell.
All that infodump gave hero enough EXP to level up.
Therefore the meta becomes very clear to me...
