Note: [[Hazeel]] may or may not be present, depending on the player's actions during [[Hazeel Cult]]. His words and actions are in ''italics''.

==What is the Other inn?==
*Player: What is the other inn on Mos Le'Harmless?
*Tiffy: The other inn? That's Joe's House of 'Rum'.
*Player: And that's where Sir Tendeth will be?
*Tiffy: What? No! Sir Tendeth will be in 'The Other Inn' - it's the name of a pub. There are two pubs on Mos Le'Harmless; you want the larger of the two. It's confusing, I know, but it amuses the pirates.

==What attacked the town?==
*Player: Did you see what attacked this town?
*Mama: No dearie, I was in here with you.

*Player: What just happened?
*Stanky Morgan: There was a lot of noise and fire.
*Player: Well, I know that much.
*Stanky Morgan: Then I think we know about the same.

*Player: What just happened?
*Bard Roberts: It looked like sky itself opened up and fire and Wrath rained upon us.
*Player: Why would that happen?
*Bard Roberts: Maybe someone around here annoyed the gods.

*Player: What just happened?
*Pirate: Arr. Dragons, I tell ye.
*Player: Dragons did this?
*Pirate: Arr. Dragons!

*Player: Did you see what attacked this town?
*Patchy: Aye, they be bony dragons.
*Player: What, like a wyvern?
*Patchy: No, these stood tall like men. Taller. And I swear one of them said something.
*Player: Where did they go?
*Patchy: I don't know. I just hope it be a long way from here.

*Player: What just happened?
*Pirate: I were walking along, minding me own business, when some scurvy dog chucked a ruddy-great fireball at me!
*Player: Did you see who did it?
*Pirate: No, I were too busy writhing in pain.

*Player: What just happened?
*Pirate: It was some sort of magical giant bats, I tells ye.
*Player: Bats? Are you sure?
*Pirate: As sure as the corns on me feet. They've flown east out over the island.
*Player: Hmm, I'd best go and check things out.

*Player: What just happened?
*Pirate: Wasn't me, lad.
*Player: I'd have been surprised if it was, but what did happen?
*Pirate: Big, scary, firebreathing albatross. Now it's flown off into the jungle.

*Player: What just happened?
*Pirate: We were attacked.
*Player: I can tell that! What by?
*Pirate: How should I know? It's not every day that the sky rains fire.

*Player: What just happened?
*Pirate: There were a terrible shaking, then dragons garbed in robes appeared and blasted all round.
*Player: And then they left?
*Player: Aye, lad, over the gate and into the jungle.
*Player: Hmm, I'd best go and check things out.

*Player: What just happened?
*Pirate: well, there be nasty things in the jungle, but nothing as dreadful as what we've seen t'day.
*Player: Something dreadful? What did they look like?
*Pirate: They were like some kind of enormous vulture. They disappeared into the jungle beyond.
*Player: Hmm, I'd best go and check things out.

*Player: What just happened?
*Pirate: There were an attack! Some fearsome beasties rained fire down on us and then headed into the jungle.
*Player: What did they look like?
*Pirate: Not sure. I was too busy cowering, to be honest.
*Player: Hmm, I'd best go and check things out.

*Player: What just happened?
*Pirate: Ow, my bones! Arr, I'll likely be needing a peg-leg now.
*Player: Oh, that's terrible.
*Pirate: It ain't so bad - they be quite teh fashion with us pirates.

*Player: What just happened?
*Pirate: Well, I jusht finished off me portion of 'rum'.
*Player: Haven't you noticed that the town's been attacked?
*Pirate: Nope, lad, but as I shay, I've jusht finished off me 'rum'.

*Player: What just happened?
*Pirate: Fiery doom! Come to destroy us all.
*Player: Tell me more.
*Pirate: Doom! Doom! A pox is apon us.

==The Ritual Begins==
*'''[[Lucien]]''': I grow tired of your pathetic attempts to stop me. You must realise by now that you can do nothing. Besides, there are more pressing matters: the ritual is upon us, and I must choose the sacrifice.
*'''[[Enakhra]]''': No, Lucien. You may well be the most powerful, but you do not decide who faces oblivion.
*'''[[Lucien]]''': Fool! That's exactly what it means! My power gives me the right to do as I please. No one can stop me! Dare you toil like these cretins have?
*'''[[Enakhra]]''': No...of course not! I...I wasn't questioning your power...merely suggesting we think this through. Who dies here affects us all.
*'''[[Lucien]]''': Oh, and whom might you suggest?
*'''[[Akthanakos]] teleports in.'''
*'''[[Akthanakos]]''': Like we need to ask. She cannot defeat me herself, so seeks others to do it for her.
*'''[[Zemouregal]]''': Perhaps, but she's right to want rid of a Zarosian. You know this to be true, Lucien.
*'''[[Azzanadra]] teleports in.'''
*'''[[Azzanadra]]''': Pathetic. I should have known you'd try to snub the power that will eventually destroy you.
*'''[[Enakhra]]''': I want it to be Akthanakos!
*'''[[Akthanakos]]''': Then it's a shame no one listens to you.
*'''[[Zemouregal]]''': Lucien, ignore this petty squabbling. Heed my wisdom - it must be one of the Zarosian scum. Pick one of these four in front of you.
*'''[[General Khazard]]:''' Yes, any of these fools will suffice! Why not Wahisietel?
*'''''[[Hazeel]] teleports in.'''''
*'''''[[Hazeel]]''': Indeed.''
*'''[[Wahisietel]]''': Ha! You two are lucky to have lived this long. We endure because we are strong. The four of us together could destroy you in the blink of an eye.
*'''[[Sliske]]''': Perhaps it IS time for one of these to meet their end...
*'''[[Akthanakos]]''': Yes, we stand together.
*'''[[Azzanadra]]''': Indeed, you have not felt Zaros's true strength for too long. Allow me to give you a remin-
*'''[[Lucien]]''': SILENCE! I DECIDE!
*'''[[Lucien]]''': You flit around like pathetic insects, clinging onto existence. Only one of us shall die today, to replenish us all...and it will be a Zarosian.
*'''[[Lucien]]''': But the answer lies not before me...
*'''[[Lucien]]''': ...it lies beneath![[File:Jhallanreveal.png|thumb|Lucien pulls Jhallan out of the ground.]]
*'''[[Lucien]] pulls [[Jhallan]] out from the ground.'''
*'''[[Zemouregal]]''': Ah, a fair choice indeed - it may as well be the most useless of us!
*'''[[Sliske]]''': I never thought I'd agree with Zamorakian filth, but he may be right on this one. We would allow this.
*'''[[Enakhra]]''': No! I demand it be Akthanakos!
*'''[[General Khazard]]''': Jhallan is not worth it. Wahisietel is more trouble; I say we choose him instead!
*'''[[Lucien]]''': I control what happens here! Dare not question my command again!
*'''[[Player]]''': Wahisietel...
*'''[[Wahisietel]]''': No. There is more at stake here then you realise. It MUST be Lucien!
*'''[[Wahisietel]] and [[Azzanadra]] attack Lucien.'''
*'''[[Sliske]]''': Time for some more backup!
*'''[[Sliske]] summons the [[Barrows Brothers]].'''
*'''[[Zemouregal]]''': Still the puppetmaster I see, Sliske. Let's see what your wights can do!
*'''[[Sharathteerk]]''': I come at your call, my lord.
*'''[[Sharathteerk]] summons four [[Armoured zombie]]s,'''
*'''[[Sir Tiffy]]''': We'll hold off Khazard. Get rid of those zombies, what?

==The Ritual==
*[[Lucien]]: Enough fighting! The time is upon us, Jhallan will face the void, so that we may be rejuvenated![[File:Jhallan_sacrificed.png|right|thumb|200px|Jhallan faces the void.]]
*'''[[Lucien]] Performs the Ritual of Rejuvenation, sacrificing Jhallan.'''
*[[Lucien]]: That's more like it!
*[[Sliske]]: We are reborn. I feel a power reawakened in me!
*[[Azzanadra]]: As do I. Now to end you, Lucien. Behold the might of Zaros!
*'''[[Azzanadra]] summons the power of Zaros and hits Lucien for 9001 and 4244 damage.'''[[File:Azzanadra_9001.png|thumb|200px|Azzanadra hits Lucien for OVER 9000! damage.]]
*[[Wahisietel]]: How does that feel, Lucien?
*[[Lucien]]: I actually felt that one...but it's still not enough.
*[[Lucien]]: I did not want to waste any more precious Mahjarrat blood today, but you have forced my hand.
*'''[[Lucien]] summons the [[Stone of Jas]] and touches it.'''
*[[Akrisae]]: The Stone of Jas!
*[[Lucien]]: No! It is mine! Aligned to me! Useful to no other while I still live! None can stand against me! I AM A GOD!
*'''[[Sithaph]] and [[Strisath]] scream.'''
*[[Sithaph]]: You are no god, False User, just another fool who believes they can manipulate the power of the Stone, like other fools before!
*[[Sir Tiffy]]: I say! Could these be dragonkin?
*[[Idria]]: Whatever they are, it sounds like they're here for the same reason we are. We may be on the same side...
*[[Sithaph]]: The False User does not know he called us?
*[[Strisath]]: No, he is oblivious.
*[[Sithaph]]: He still uses the Stone. I feel my rage growing.
*'''[[Idria]] walks towards the Dragonkin and bows.'''
*[[Idria]]: Excuse me, guardians of the Stone...
*[[Strisath]]: It grows in me too. I feel the need to destroy the False User.
*[[Sithaph]]: I am in agreement.
*'''[[Idria]] bows again.'''
*[[Idria]]: I beg your pardon, but we're here to stop him too. We could join forces..
*[[Strisath]]: The little creature adresses us. It angers me. Her too?
*[[Sithaph]]: Yes. Those before us should know that ALL will suffer now we are unleashed![[File:Idriadie3.png|thumb|200px|Idria is killed by the dragonkin.]]
*'''[[Sithaph]] and [[Strisath]] kill Idria.'''
*[[Lucien]]: An interesting display of power, but it does not compare to my own.
*[[Strisath]]: Beware False User, your power is taken from the stone, our power IS the Stone.
*[[Lucien]]: You DARE mock the power of Lucien?
*[[Sithaph]]: We dare.

*[[Enakhra]]: We are rejuvenated. I have no wish to stay here and share Lucien's fate.
*'''[[Enakhra]] and [[Akthanakos]] teleport away.'''
*[[General Khazard]]: I too have um, matters to attend to.
*'''[[Khazard]] teleports off.'''
*''[[Hazeel]]: Hmph.''
*'''''[[Hazeel]] teleports away.'''''
*[[Zemouregal]]: So Lucien is dead. Good riddance, I say.
*'''[[Zemouregal]] teleports back to his Fortress.'''
*[[Azzanadra]]: Until the next ritual.
*'''[[Azzanadra]] teleports away.'''
*[[Strisath]]: False User is defeated.
*[[Sithaph]]: Agreed. The pain subsides a little.
*[[Sithaph]]: Know this watchers: we answer only to the Stone. All will pay the price for its misuse.
*[[Strisath]]: The Dragonkin are awakened! This world will suffer as we do.

==Akrisae the Doomed==
*'''[[Akrisae]]:''' All is lost. Lucien is dead, but we were too late. An even more powerful enemy is revealed! And Idria...
*'''[[Sir Tiffy]]''': Calm yourself, Akrisae. We all feel the loss for one of our own. We need to focus now, chaps, it's not over yet.
*'''[[Player]]''': Tiffy is right, we need to do something about the stone. It's clear the dragonkin are linked to its use and Lucien's lust for power is what brought them here.
*'''[[Wahisietel]]''': Yes, but the stone is still here. Perhaps we must hide it away, prevent its further use...or misuse.
*'''[[Sliske]]''': Good luck with that, my brother.
*'''[[Wahisietel]]''': Still here, Sliske? I thought you'd have left with the rest of them.
*'''[[Sliske]]''': I had a reason to stay...
*'''[[Sliske]]''': [[Player]], I have been following your progress for some time now, watching from the shadows. You have grown most powerful,
*'''[[Sliske]]''': And now I am rejuvenated, I have an opportunity to expand my collection.
[[File:Sliske's_Backstabbing.png|thumb|Sliske backstabs the player.]]
*'''[[Player]]''': Excuse me?
*'''[[Sir Tiffy]]''': Now, hold on there, sneak. [[Player]]'s one of us, dont-cha-know?
*'''[[Sliske]]''': And now he is one of mine. Come with me to the Barrows, [[Player]].
*'''[[Sliske]] launches an attack at the player.'''

[[File:Akrisae_becomes_Barrows_brother.png|thumb|Akrisae's heroic sacrifice.]]

*'''[[Akrisae]]: '''No!
*'''[[Akrisae]] Jumps and takes the attack, becoming [[Akrisae the Doomed]].'''
*'''[[Akrisae the Doomed]]: '''I serve you, master.
*'''[[Sliske]]''': Ha ha ha! Well, you will do just as well, for now!
*'''[[Sir Tiffy]]''': You'll pay for that!
*'''[[Tiffy]] walks up to [[Sliske]].'''
*'''[[Sliske]]''': Not today.
*'''[[Sliske]] teleports away.'''
*'''[[Wahisietel]]: '''Sliske! I should have known he'd stay for some profit.
*'''[[Sir Tiffy]]''': You speak like he stole our gold, not one of us!
*'''[[Wahisietel]]''': I am sorry. He is a powerful ally, but his actions are his own. If nothing else, you can at least trust that you can't trust Sliske.
*'''[[Player]]''': There has been more then enough pain and torment for one day. Let's just get this finished.
*'''[[Sir Tiffy]]''': Of course, you are right, old boy. Let's get this stone hidden away.
*'''[[Wahisietel]]''': My use here has ended. I owe you enough to not betray you by watching what happens to the stone. I return to [[Nardah]]. Farewell.
*'''[[Wahisietel]] teleports away.'''
