@0  = ~Well, my young friend, it wouldst seem that fate continues to bring us together.~
@1  = ~It would appear so. Though I don't quite understand it all. Isn't there anymore that you can tell me?~
@2  = ~Yes, it does.  But if you ask me, I think it's a bit more than fate, old man. I think you are following me around... Are you making sure I don't get myself into trouble? Well, let me tell you, I can take care of myself just fine!~
@3  = ~Thou will find the answers to all of your questions in time, young <CHARNAME>. It is not for me to interfere, nor guide thee along a path that thou must discover on thine own. However, despite this I wouldst like to provide thee with one thing. Thou received an expertly crafted weapon from the smith Otho. That weapon is a very important item, one that thou must retain, as its strength will be needed in the very near future. If thou will permit me this once, I will place an enchantment on that item to further its strength. But, after I do this, I suggest that thou take this weapon to a temple and have a blessing placed upon it. The evil that thou will soon face requires a little help divine intervention. And I believe someone in a most holy position suggested that aid would be provided to thee when needed. Perhaps this is the time? But for now, I will perform this task and take my leave.~
@4  = ~Well, once again I met that eccentric, but helpful old sage! He placed an enchantment on the mace that Otho made for us. This weapons seems to be very important, and Elminster suggested that I have someone bless it as well. But who do I know that could do this? Hmm...Perhaps the Morninglord that wanted his relic returned from the dragon could help?~
@5  = ~I don't doubt for a moment thou can't, young <CHARNAME>. It is not for me to interfere, nor guide thee along a path that thou must discover on thine own. However, despite this I wouldst like to provide thee with one thing. Thou received an expertly crafted weapon from the smith Otho. That weapon is a very important item, one that thou must retain, as its strength will be needed in the very near future.

@6  = ~Well, that weird old man came around, pestering me once again. He claims that he is not trying to influence me or interfere with my chosen path, yet he placed an enchantment on the mace that Otho made for us. He told me that it was necessary because of a great evil that I was about to face. I don't need his help or anyone else's. Whatever this great evil is, I'm sure that I can take care of myself. Elminster suggested that I have someone bless it as well. Who do I know that could do that? Hmm...Maybe that old man from the temple east of Beregost who wanted his relic returned from the dragon would do it?~
@7  = ~So, I see that thou did not keep the mace that Otho made for thee. That is most unfortunate!~
