Town Crier Rumors
- Town Crier tells you, "My cousin took a trip to the lifestone the other day courtesy of some new golems in the direlands."
- Town Crier tells you, "He kept talking about precious metals pounding his body to pulp."
- Town Crier tells you, "Festival Grounds look much like each other when your head is down over your pieces brother."
- Town Crier tells you, "Did you hear about Marae Lassel?"
- Town Crier tells you, "At least Eastham seems to have been given some relief from all of those portals. But I hear that the areas around where the essences were have become rather busy."
- Town Crier tells you, "Don't you know that playing at this level calls for no ordinary venue, it's Rithwic, Qalaba'r or... or... Yanshi."
- Town Crier tells you, "The Arcanum has built new Residential Quarters. They are accessible from Khayyaban, Lin and Samsur."
- Town Crier tells you, "Yanshi might seem free, but can we ever be truly free of the Harbinger?"
- Town Crier tells you, "Stay away from the really big Tusker. I hear that they are incredibly strong and brutal."
- Town Crier tells you, "On a dark and stormy night I was told by a stranger of a mansion that is haunted by forces such as one only sees in nightmares. He said he will journey there nevermore."
- Town Crier tells you, "I hear tell that the Singularity Caul has a few new defenders. One of them I heard is a Virindi that stalks with Shadows. What could that mean?"
- Town Crier tells you, "Go to the festival grounds to see a show with everything but Ulgrim."
- Town Crier tells you, "I think there is something wrong with the skeletons. I've seen them running all over town and they aren't attacking. They also look a bit odd, like their heads are bigger or something. I've heard they are trying to fashion their own flags too, perhaps to wrap around their humongous heads."
- Town Crier tells you, "Someone said that they found the way to Gaerlan's fallen citadel near where the essences once were."
- Town Crier tells you, "Thank you, I will sing for you now. Unforgettable..."
- Town Crier tells you, "...I, I cannot seem to remember the rest of the song."
- Town Crier tells you, "Time flies, doesn't seem a minute since the Lytelthorpe bar had some townsfolk in it."
- Town Crier tells you, "Those mask makers sure have started a vile new trade. I mean I don't mind wearing a mask and all but what they are doing, creepy."
Yanshi Town Crier rumors
- Town Crier tells you, "Jeweler Xao Wu never came back from the Lifestone. They say her body never re-formed! What is happening? These are strange times!"
- Town Crier tells you, "The arcanum has built new Residential Quarters. They are accessible from Khayyaban, Lin and Samsur. Since our town is destroyed, maybe we can commute from there?"
- Town Crier tells you, "Someone said that they found the way to Gaerlan's fallen citadel near where the essences once were."
- Town Crier tells you, Flames still haunt my dreams. Witness our destroyed town."
- Town Crier tells you, "You will find the population of Yanshi up the road. They are living in tents."
- Town Crier tells you, Everyone is up the road. We lost almost everything!"
Ulgrim Rumors
During the Festivus event, Ulgrim was still found in Xarabydun but now wanted to try the local brew so he destroyed the lvl restricted portal and dug a tunnel to the town instead.
- Ulgrim motions the bar for more stout.
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant says, "Anam my good man, keep 'em coming!"
- Barkeep Anam says, "Sure Ulgrim, why don't you finish what you have first."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant says, "All done and wanting for more dear barkeep."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant says, "That's the stuff."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant says, "Aw! None Left!"
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Hey! Welcome to the Xarabydun Pub! Grab a stool and let's have a drink to celebrate Gaerlan's defeat. I'm partial to Stout myself."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant says, "Anam, a mug of Stout on my friend here! And my friends having..."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I was telling my cousin the other day about this big tusker I saw while traveling across the barren plains. Now, when I say big I mean huge! This thing must have stood over 50 feet tall and it had this strange look in its eyes."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It tried to step on me, but I shockwaved it in the orbs and ran for it. Aliester didn't believe me at first, but I convinced him."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I finally got the Xarabydun entrance to open so I could visit my favorite Pub in Dereth. I'm enjoying Anam's fine establishment before heading back to Ayan. Aino was sad to see me go, but my life is one of adventure, excitement and drink."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Not necessarily in that order."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I was writing spell on this scroll"
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "An ah shallow shark was like Grrrr Grrrr Grrrr"
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "And then, like half my scroll was gone...and I was like..."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Unnhh?"
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It devoured my spell... was a really good spell and then I had to write it again and I had to do it fast, so it wasn't as good..."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It's kind of....."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "a bummer."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I'm Ulgrim and I'm a mage."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "You doubt my chess abilities? Let me put it this way. Have you ever heard of Yuri, Bobby, Trumper, Blue?"
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Morons."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I went and played on the new chessboards yesterday. I beat everyone there; even that old chess champion Large Red. You may now call me Ulgrim Chess Grandmaster or just his Highness if you prefer."
- Ulgrim pauses.
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Eddie the Crazy?"
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I have heard some weird names, but..."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "What were your parents thinking?!"
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Have you seen some of these people's names? So... their mother was really a mule? So they can't reproduce then? That's probably for the best."
