Greeting YOU'VE KILLED MY NEIGHBOR - MY FAMILY! WHY HAVE YOU DONE THIS!
Greeting Couldn't help but over hear your conversation with Kinji ... are you going to get us out of here, stranger?
Greeting Couldn't help but over hear your conversation with Kinji ... I don't suppose I can convince you to help us?
Greeting You did it! Now untie me, quick.
Greeting Pray tell ... any luck finding me a way out this wretched hole?
Greeting You there! I don't know who you are, but release me from here, I beg of you.
Greeting It feels good to be home. I was beginning to doubt I'd ever feel the wind in my hair again, or take in the scents of the blooming fields of Gan.

Greeting No, no. No more talking. The door, please. Open it.
Greeting Quick, untie Ninsei so I can get out of here!
Greeting ROT OF THE ORI! NOT KINJI! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!
Greeting Wh-who are you? What are you going to do with me?
Greeting I heard you talking to Ninsei ... you're truly here to rescue us?
Greeting Have you located the key? This cell is taking on rain thanks to all the damned holes in the roof.
Greeting Oh, how great the wind feels on my face ... but I can't shake the frustration of missed study.
Greeting I heard you talking to Ninsei ... We're never leaving these damned cells are we?
Greeting GET BACK! DON'T COME NEAR ME!
Greeting S-so? Did you find the key? Are we getting out of here?
Greeting You got the cell open! Please, release me from these dreadful ropes!

Greeting *An old man emerges into the crimson glow, his face hidden behind a macabre mask. His eyes, sharp and knowing, gleam with quiet calculation.*
Greeting *The elf slouches and puts up his palm.* Wait! Slaying me won't stop the Children of the Crimson Serpent.

Greeting So … you and Tama saw fit to arrange this affair behind my back? I see ...
Greeting So, this is the viasha I have to thank for saving my wizards, and it even appears our Ori Tree.
Greeting The good news has reached me. You've managed to bring our wizards back safe and sound, [player], and what's more, the Ori Tree is flourishing!
Greeting You cannot know what it means to me to see the Ori cast its golden leaves upon the plains once more.
Greeting TRAITOR! MURDEROUS, TRAITOR!
Greeting *A tall elf stands stiffly before you. An elegant headdress adorns her dark braided hair, and her untrusting eyes. Her arm tightens around an old black book - she speaks firmly.*
Greeting Do you have news for me yet, viasha?
Greeting Depart from here, at once. Others may not be as forgiving as me.
Greeting Depart from here, at once. Others may not be as forgiving as me.
Greeting Viasha ... do you carry news? I have ... the most awful feeling as of late ...

Greeting Did you need supplies, viasha?
Topic Is something wrong?
Topic I wanted to ask about the missing Wind Wizards.

Greeting Wait, viasha. Word has reached me that Renhai, set in her proud ways, turned you aside. Her devotion to age-old custom blinds her in these troubled days.
Greeting *The elf turns her gaze away from you, refusing to acknowledge your precense.*
Greeting Failure is something to prepare for in life. I can tolerate and fix failure.
Greeting I'm sure you're disappointed ... we all are - but, nothing is forever. The world will continue on and forget about all of this. Time will heal all - if given enough.
